    Homelink retrofit install failure

    This is new… because I’ve read of Tesla owners taking their Homelink module out of their to-be-traded-in Tesla and using it in their new Tesla. This implies that you can no longer do that. Which is total cr@p. What’s next? I can’t move my roof rack, floor mats, center console trays or other...

    Cybertruck in Peabody, MA Show Room

    Cybertruck moved from Boston show room to Peabody. Yes I saw other's posts in the Boston thread - worth starting a new headline for those that want to go see. I asked the sales assistant if the CT would be in the Peabody show room for the holiday event on 12/16 and he said it would be.

    Should I ask Tesla service to rectify minor defacts found after delivery day?

    For the yellow paint - I checked mine and it's similar. Wow, you really have to look hard to actually even see/notice that. No way would I ask the SC to repair it. They will send it to a body shop and you will end up with way more problems, to cover a small area nobody will ever see. For the...

    How to change settings to reflect Gemini wheels without aero covers

    It does not - I checked so I could respond to your question but, after I logged in, I still had the aero wheel caps in that image...

    How to change settings to reflect Gemini wheels without aero covers

    So I just did this with my Model Y. I pulled the Gemini wheel covers off my MYLR on day 1 and installed the wheel cap kit that Tesla offers. I wanted my on-screen avatar and phone app to reflect that. Here is how I did it: 1) In the Tesla phone App, I opened a service request and selected...

    Squeaky /creaky driver's seat issue identified

    I had the same issue on my 2023 MYLR. Here’s how I stopped it: Sit in the seat. Use the flat/horizontal seat adjuster to raise the seat base as high as it will go, so there is no height adjustment left to take. Then on the screen press “Restore” to return to your saved seat setting. No more...

    Gemini Wheel Covers => Damaged Rims

    Really good to know. I cleaned my rims up to the point where they probably won't oblige. Add to that - my local SC is not cooperative and I'm better off not trying to depend on them. But great to have this post as others may try that route. Thank you for sharing - interesting to see that...

    Gemini Wheel Covers => Damaged Rims

    "Trap more particles..." yep, that's really the challenge here. The wheel cover's contact points act like sand paper, trapping particulate matter and then vibrating to sand/grind down the surface underneath. I don't go more than 500 miles round trip at a time... so maybe foam tape works over...

    Gemini Wheel Covers => Damaged Rims

    Posting this as a heads-up (warning) to others - as I did not see similar posts about this type of damage from Gemini Wheel Covers. When I took delivery of my Model Y, I immediately took off the Gemini Wheel Covers because I really like the rims underneath - I used the Tesla Wheel Caps to...
