Our m3 worked great for 2 years, then after recent software update ...16 the wipers started wiping often in perfectly dry car .

We could use such a system for a 100% electric Passive style house with 1 EV (Tesla M3). Our heat is radiant floor with a single 24KW instantaneous water heater which does floor and domestic. We have a couple electric fireplaces for small area extra warmth, and in the summer 1 13000 BTU AC...

Not in Massachusetts or New York - Pretty much every gas station charges for air. don't know about water.

Any noise on updates to the Tesla app to enable remote viewing?

I am retired now, but when I had my first electric drive car (Prius) I would take friends out for drives and ensure that I got it to run on electric only. They would always ask if it was good on hills.....I described those mile long trains and told them "Do you know what moves those massive...

I grew up in those days, in that there were lots of folks trying to make EVs, but they were using Lead Acid batteries, and basically remodeled Golf Carts. Not only was it dangerous to charge the lead acid batteries (vent H2 during charge), but sulfuric acid and lead are not real nice if you...

-- I think Tesla should install a house style light switch on the dashboard to enable the car.. Yes with a keyed lock like in offices which management does not want you to mess with the lighting....... (2020 Model 3 - loving it)

Also much better than the CVT I had replaced on an old Prius after 105,000 miles. 5,500$ I guess its nice not to have a tranny.

That actually is not too bad. I had a MCU on my old Prius go bad and it was going to cost about 2000$ if you bought a new one. I found a junk yard one, and it worked fine, but still cost about 800$. We now have a 2020 Model 3 and I am not really worried about the computers at this time.

I have felt a short shimmy in our new Model 3 (2020) during highway speed inside lane corrections. No noticeable road surface issues, not departing the lane, but when slight corrections are manually made at about 55 MPH I often get what I would describe as a light "stick shaker" type feeling...

I hope you are right, and I also was a software engineer in my previous life - prior to retirement. I would think its just a matter of prioritizing what new goodies are to be introduced in each release and of course testing it enough. I do notice Sentry mode in general needs to have an...

One hopes in an upcoming release, Tesla incorporates access via the Tesla app to the videos stored on the USB device, since the car has all the cell, and wifi access needed and the Tesla app already supports many secured functions for the car. Since the Tesla in car system is supposedly...

A couple things - When I format a drive using Windows 10 to FAT32, it does not work in our Model 3, when I format the drive using Fat32 Formater (from an English Ridge cop Consulting), it works. Then when I get sentry mode clips, they show the entire drive if I leave on sentry mode during our...
