    2023 RWD M3 lowered on Eibach Prokit, too low. Bad install or because of LFP battery? Help!

    The plan was to let the springs settle before going in for one, but the steering wheel felt the same, and now I'm on the second set of tires since, with no uneven wear with either: I never bothered.

    2023 RWD M3 lowered on Eibach Prokit, too low. Bad install or because of LFP battery? Help!

    I did mine. The car looks MUCH sportier, and handles better if you're an aggressive driver. You will scrape the bottom of your car regularly though, watch out for those wide parking lot speed bumps. If you're going that direction, I would also recommend the eibach anti-roll bars, they make a...

    For those who purchased or upgraded to a 2023, are you happy with your decision, knowing what you now know about your vehicle?

    Having a fully equipped service centre nearby is something to consider. I'm dealing with this problem (in Canada) as we speak, pain in the ass is an understatement.

    Weird sound from AC. What is the problem?

    Mine is making the same sound. 21 m3 also.

    Climate (lack of) control

    You're not wrong. The climate control system needs some serious work. The simple fact that driver and passenger vents have to both be on, or both be off blows my mind, let alone all the other other problems with it. I just keep hoping a future update will solve these problems.

    2022 Model 3 SR Accident: Acceleration While Braking to Park

    I pass deer literally, every morning, on the side of the road. I slow right down so they don't spook and run in front of me. The screen has never showed one on it. I don't get it.

    2022 Model 3 SR Accident: Acceleration While Braking to Park

    In regards to the fawn part of this response, can anyone point me to a thread on wildlife avoidance? I don't have FSD, and have had to swerve to avoid deer and raccoon's, while the car did nothing. I also ran over an (already dead) raccoon, also no warning, and it was a big one.

    Model Y insurance high?

    It's the same story in Canada. The brokers told me it was because there's so few shops that will work on a Tesla, driving the price up. A service center is coming to my area, but I'm not holding my breath for a cost reduction. 2700cad (2100 euro) a year for comparison, with a good driving record.

    How do you take care of the MS vegan leather?

    I've been using this since my car was new, I'm really happy with it. Nice, LIGHTLY scented. Double Black Renny Doyle Collection

    First bit of snow this morning...

    I literally just came inside from using my truck to pull my sr+ out of barely 4 inches of snow in my driveway. I was amazed how useless this car is in the snow (I still really love the car overall though). The slip start mode is a joke, even with winter tires. I've had many cars over my...

    Canada finally gets the M3 [Heated] steering wheel unlock.

    It was locked on the SR+ until recently. And only 2021 SR+ models built after a certain date (March I think) even have them.

    Canada finally gets the M3 [Heated] steering wheel unlock.

    After a few months of ownership, the heated steering wheel got unlocked and added to the rear heated seat package in Canada. Just in time for winter!

    Scheduled Departure, How does it work?

    jcanoe I appreciate the info, I've been trying to figure out the S.D. feature for the last month, and through trial and error have realized it's location specific (which is awesome). My question to you is, where did you find that information? I've googled the question several times, the answer...

    Only one scheduled departure?

    I like that the S.D. feature has the car charged and warm for me in the morning, but why wouldn't the software allow for a second departure time (like leaving work at the same time every day)?
