    Car wash mode fail

    I didn’t know about the long press or upward selector pull. I will have to try that. I prefer the mirrors unfolded, otherwise they don’t get cleaned. So besides neutral, the only step missing is turning off the wipers.

    Any recommendations to help make an automated car wash a less stressful experience?

    Stressful is an understatement! 🤯 So like easy entry I had to figure it out myself with trial and error. I hate the belt because it can damage the rims. I’ve only ever found one brushless car wash that actually cleans the car and it’s 1.5hrs away. All the rest leave the sides dirty. So for...

    M3LR MPP BBK install

    Tin snips are needed for the dust shield removal. Allen head socket for the new bolts to the aluminum adapter. Unless on lift, 1/2” torque wrench is way to big. There is still a finger depth clearance with 19” rims.

    M3LR MPP BBK install

    Ok, after even more searching I found … MPP’s BBK install page Tesla Mark install But until I saw this one I’ve never heard of E-torx (E-18) and don’t have them. T-30 for the dust shield removal. ZevCentric’s MPP BBK install which covers more torque specs

    M3LR MPP BBK install

    I found the install video … Pagemill 365mm BBK install I can’t understand all the torx sizes, which I need to know beforehand. It also does not mention any torque specs. I’ve done this myself on all my cars and even though I’m a bit older I don’t want to pay a shop to do it.

    M3P Brakes on LR

    I thought this had to have been before. Might as well go 2 price light weight rotors. From what I understand the calipers are only larger for the larger rotors. Both are Brembo and unless it’s not listed both have the same pistons? Can you explain the plug you mentioned? …any pictures of it...

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model 3 / Model Y RW-S5 Cyclone Wheels *Official Thread*

    Had mine installed today with Michelin’s and it feels like an Audi now …thank you! It might be in my head but it feels like better acceleration as well. If anyone replaced the lug nuts with black ones did you go longer (as I believe they are a thicker diameter and not sure it leaves clearance...

    Model 3 Replacement Wiper Blades

    I just purchased also. It’s a pair in one box and most store sell them separately. Best way is Oder online with the auto parts store you prefer and it will direct you to the store that has in in stock. If not, it may be another day to get from their warehouse. It was like $25. Has a tiny gold...

    When are brake lights on?

    This was the only good thing the mini display did. I probably should have kept for the front camera. Anyway it did an excellent job of showing regenerative braking. I would never have known the brake light turned on when letting go of the electric pedal.

    Vendor Tesla Model 3/Y RWS5 Cyclone Wheels - Redwood Motorsports - ReStocked & TMC discount!

    Can the stock lug-nuts can be reused? Do I have to order Model S center caps even though it’s for a model 3? Do you have blue logo or no logo center billet caps? Are aftermarket TPS ok or stick with OEM? Cleaning care suggestions ?
