    Latest update Nov 23? Car does not lock when I walk away.

    Hi My model 3 standard year 2020 model just had its 4th birthday so part of warranty is over. Latest update seems to have made it so when I walk away the car no longer locks itself. Just a few days before that I had to adjust driver side mirror so maybe things got scrambled before the...

    How much used M3 will depreciate if 7k federal rebate happens

    Maybe used car price will be down but the federal rebate “effect” will only last until 400k more cars are sold here in the US. So less than 2 years.

    How much used M3 will depreciate if 7k federal rebate happens

    Front license plate falling off

    Hi. I waited a year to install the front license plate. I thought I followed the installation steps. But afterwards when I looked at the finished installation I saw that only the top strip of adhesive was holding the whole thing. I got Tesla mobile service to reinstall the whole thing. It cost...

    Tesla "charger" now shows red instead of green often

    Thanks your probably right. I ordered a replacement for one connection that I may have mistrested. I was thinking that the Tesla connector had somehow changed.and was more sensitive to the connection ground but not likely.

    Tesla "charger" now shows red instead of green often

    i use the nema 10-50 electric plug under the kitchen electric stove connected to a cable I bought specially to charge the tesla and a longer 14-50 extension to the car. This worked fine for the first six month or so when I needed to charge at home. But now I have to unplug and reconnect several...

    Beginning of AI?

    last weekend I went out to car with vacuum cleaner. Since new car I thought I would keep area under drivers feet clean. I was busy vacuuming and I saw that the charge port had opened up. I think the car “saw” me with the extension cord and since I was not initiating the charging it decided to help!!

    SR+ range seems to be 200 miles

    I'll try not using hvac and see if it varies. I'm here in California weather not that extreme. So not really using anything too much. Going to work 26% of battery coming back 23%. So work must be uphill from home. But no really steep climbing. If this is the best the SR+ battery can do I'm ok...

    SR+ range seems to be 200 miles

    I have the SR+ for less than a month. My daily commute round trip is exactly 100 miles. Percentage of battery use is pretty much exactly 50%. That translates to 200 mile range. I thought I was getting 240 mile range or 250? Otherwise car is flawless. Maybe need to look at why the screen shows...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I started with wall plug 10-30 then converted to 14-50 but the car wanted the ground. I used the tesla 14-50 adapter with the cars charging cables. Maybe I have to get the tesla 10-30 adapter so it does not expect to find a ground. ..??
