    Will i be missing out on Enhanced Autopilot or FSD?

    As someone whose 2018 Tesla Model 3 just got smacked by a semi and totaled out by my insurance carrier (with what did not appear to be damage that would total out any other vehicle)... I am hesitant to buy EAP or FSD on my replacement 2023 Model Y for this reason. IF YOUR TESLA IS TOTALLED 3...

    Solved*: AP, TACC, Auto Wipers & Lights

    Agree re need to offer extended follow distance well beyond 7 setting. That and auto pilot allows a lane change in front of a semi WAY too close. Auto pilot can recognize semi’s, so why can’t it apply different lane change safe distances in front of semis?

    Tesla and iPhone volume

    This drives me nuts! I thought it was using the volume setting on the phone maybe, but no. Doesn’t matter. I can turn volume down on my phone and on the steering wheel and it still relates to max in a minute or two.

    Formula One Stratos Window Tint

    I use the Stratos on my Model 3 this spring. 70% front 40% sides Nothing on the back (I was going to do 50% but they couldn’t get the film big enough to do it right away, then after waiting for them to get the film in, I realized it doesn’t need it. The non-tinted part on the back window is...

    Tint door windows, but not rear window?

    I did 40% on side windows, 70% on front windshield. Intended upon doing 50% on rear window, but installer had delay in trying to get the bigger film to do it all in once piece (I did NOT want that line for a half back window tint). While waiting weeks, turned to 2 months, for the installer to...

    Model 3 Weird Smell

    What did you figure out about this? I have had the same thing, but just thought it was something I had in the trunk. It was not. Noticed the other day that it seems to appear just as the hvac fan kicks in shortly after I get in the car.

    Pre-Cooling time (Video)

    It is super fast! I work on the 14th floor of my building. I park outside on a surface lot. I hit the AC on the app before I get in the elevator (car has been 106+ at start) and by the time I get to my car (minutes) it is in the 70's. It is AMAZING! Game changer. I loved the remote start...

    Protruding headlights: Did Tesla fix this on your 3?

    Mine protrude too. Early on after delivery in April, I asked about it. They said they all do, within spec. I compared to every Model 3 in the lot for delivery and they all protruded, so I kind of shrugged and moved on. That said, there's no way they were DESIGNED to protrude. Nothing else...

    Rattle / Squeak while driving

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    Does not appear to be any blending. They had it 4 days, but that was partially due to my schedule as I was out of town for work.

    White Paint Bumper mismatch

    HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF! After sending my service advisor photos of my bumper, they offered to repaint it just off the photos. I just picked the Model 3 up from the body shop and it looks MUCH better (to me). I tried to get the same camera angles as my before photos. I would put the end result...
