    FSD free trial is over

    So, my FSD trial was suppose to end on May 2nd. It was still on my car yesterday so I thought it ends after the day. It is now May 3rd and FSD is still on my car and working. In the software page it says FSD expires on May 2nd. Did Elon maybe fired too many people and somebody forgot to...

    FSD free trial is over

    I have found FSD V12 to be very impressive. A vast improvement over V11 I rented last year. I can now maybe see FSD actually being solved at some point in the future with new hardware. That said, I used it less and less as the month went on, so I probably won't be missing it much. I'll...

    Free Trial FSD, What DoYou Think About It?

    The free FSD trial has been fun. I'm on my last day and I have to say I'm impressed with V12. For me it's been a night and day difference compared to V11 I rented last year, which was borderline unusable in the cities. That said, I found my self using FSD less and less as the month...

    Martian wheels

    Is Atomic Wheels fairly new? I did not know about them before. Their wheels certainly look good and had I been in the market now, I'd probably go with one of their designs instead of the Martians. I was looking at getting bronze colored wheels last year and Martian was running a decent sale...

    Martian wheels

    Man that sucks. Sorry you've encountered an issue with your wheels. I guess it would be pretty difficult to prove "manufacturing defect". Have you gained a better idea on where the sound is coming from and how it's being produced?

    Are you satisfied with the range you get?

    Well, I don't think the range necessarily "needs" to go up for people without home charging, but I think it would be more ideal, simply because they would need to visit fast chargers fewer times. Each visit would probably be a bit longer, but at least for me that would beat more frequent...

    Are you satisfied with the range you get?

    I think a 400~600 mile range is more ideal for people who don't own homes and can't do overnight level 2 charging. For me, who has a level 2 charger at home, the current MYP range have been more than enough, and I live in a cold weather state. In two and a half years I've driven 60k miles...

    Model Y Suspension Advice

    I doubt Tesla would install aftermarket shocks, but I guess it doesn't hurt to check. Jesse at MPP told me that the Model Y's suspension setup is very similar to an Audi A4 and shops that work on European cars should have no issues installing suspension parts. I had a shop that specialized in...

    Tesla: Highlights from our upcoming Spring Release below

    Looks like my Intel Atom car will start to get left behind on software updates. Kind of sucks, but I guess the current UI and software feels more or less perfected to me, so there's not a whole lot more I could ask for. I would rather that Tesla put a bow on an older car's software at some...

    Creeping mode

    I went from an ICE into my MYP as my first EV and have never actually used creep mode. I found it pretty easy to modulate the accelerator pedal to get the car from stop to a creeping speed. I guess the key with an EV accelerator pedal is a light touch, both pressing and lifting.

    Are you satisfied with the range you get?

    I went into it knowing that the car was unlikely to hit the EPA range rating unless it's in absolutely perfect conditions. I think the best range I've ever observed from my car was probably around 250 miles on a full charge. While that's quite a bit below the 303 mile EPA estimated range (in...

    Frunk Latch Failure on a Saturday Night

    How often do you use your frunk? Do you think it's something that happened due to frequent use or just a random thing? Either way, not very comforting to know that this sort of thing could happen, LOL!

    22MYP Suspension Upgrade third party or new 23 comfort suspension?

    Cool, that's probably better than using a typical car repair shop like I did then. Did you keep the stock ride height?

    22MYP Suspension Upgrade third party or new 23 comfort suspension?

    Which shop did you end up using to install your Ohlins? I decided to get the MPP comfort adjustable coil overs a few weeks ago and ended up using Eurotech to do the install. I have it at almost the softest setting to start and the ride does seem improved, taking the edge off of vibrations from...

    Model Y Nitpick Thread

    The auto wipers seemingly have been getting worse lately. They’ve never been great, but have been mostly acceptable to me. Last week it was so bad during some light to medium rain I took it off auto and switched it to level 2 speed for the first time. Previously it had at least been tolerable...
