You could direct pre-compressed air to cooling fans attached to batteries and motors and then out of a nozzle in back of the car. You'd get critical component cooling and acceleration.

Sold my Prius (50mpg) to get a Volt (200mpg). Sold the Volt to get a Model 3 (infinite mpg).

2020 M3. Phantom braking with FSD and with TACC. Irritating.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'll try just turning on the screen and see if that gets me access to my car.

They're pushing to get lots of cars delivered before the end of the quarter. Fortunately for you, they just instituted a full year of unlimited supercharging for any delivery before the end of the calendar year.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S9, and the same thing happens to me. I walk up to my 2020 M3, but I can't unplug it until I take the phone out of my pocket and fire up the Tesla app.

I have a 2020 M3 with FSD. It doesn't have the beta version. It does read speed limit signs, and when I'm driving using FSD on a road where the speed limit decreases, my car does not slow down. It keeps going at the 10 percent above the previous posted limit rather than slowing down to 10...

OK, the version I have, which has stoplight and stop sign recognition turned on, still isn't the limited one that makes turns on city streets. If I need to make a 90-degree turn on a city street, autosteer turns itself off. Frankly, the version of FSD that I really want is the one that may not...

I'm a relatively new Tesla driver, M3 SR+ bought in June. I paid for FSD because FSD is the reason I bought a Tesla instead of another brand of electric car which would have cost much less. I've used FSD on city streets, and I've become quite familiar with its limitations (I don't have the beta...

The trouble with HD maps as a way for the car to know what's out there even in dense fog or other or visibility conditions is that even with excellent signals from the GPS network, there's still a few meters of uncertainty as to the actual location of the car. With poor signal quality, there's...

Yes, I'm aware. That's why I haven't complained about it to Tesla. The point I was making is that once the actual FSD comes down the line, I hope that the car does its own creeping forward to see what's coming down the road before crossing or turning at an intersection.

There's a mild unintended acceleration that occurs all the time on my M3. It happens when the car is on the partial FSD that came with the car when I bought it in June, and the car stops itself at a stop sign. The car stops where it's supposed to stop, but often, I can't see around bushes to...

2020.40.4 isn't the update you're looking for. I have that update, and my car still can't make 90-degree turns by itself, and it still needs permission to go through green lights unless there's a car in front of me that's going through the green light. Frankly, when true FSD arrives, I think...

If your night vision is starting to decrease, you should start taking eye vitamins. They're called PreserVision AREDS 2. You can get them online or at any pharmacy without a prescription.

If that happened, the passenger would give the cabby a lousy review, and Uber would fire him.
