Awesome. Thank you!

Don't know how to ask this without the obligatory joke response. My M3 has a strange, rotting odor when I first start the AC/Fan. It dissipates after a minute or so. Not sure if a critter got caught in there and met its demise, but if that was the case you'd think the smell would continue. Any...

I noticed this today, too. Not sure when it changed out of free supercharging, but I have yet to be billed.

Yes. Added phone key on the M3 screen and followed directions on the Tesla app on my phone. It searched but couldn’t communicate. Rebooted phone. Logged out/in the app etc. Nothing.

Just tried soft and hard resetting, then finally deleted phone key. However, when I tried to add a new phone key again, I couldn't -- car could not communicate with the phone. So I've got that going for me now. Thoughts?

For some reason, my car suddenly stopped recognizing my phone and my wife's iPhone when I approached the car to unlock it. I had to use my keycard to get inside. Once inside, the car recognized the phone and accessed my music etc, but as soon as I stepped out... nada. Thoughts?

Yesterday Tesla pushed 2019.8.5 to me and today pushed 2019.12. Strange, right? For reference: LR RWD EAP FSD (eventually)

This is a happy way to start the weekend: "Anyone who purchased full self-driving will get FSD computer upgrade for free. This is the only change between Autopilot HW2.5 & HW3. Going forward “HW3” will just be called FSD Computer, which is accurate. No change to vehicle sensors or wire harness...

I made the same comment as the OP a few days ago wondering if anyone had noticed less regen since the last 3 updates or so (prior to 8.3). I have a RWD LR and live in So Cal where the temp is always about the same. For the last 3 months I noticed my car wouldn't slow down fast enough at...

I live in So Cal and the temp has been fairly consistent the last few weeks. Battery always between 40-80% and haven't noticed it better/worse depending on the battery level.

Anybody else noticed the regenerative braking isn't as strong as it used to be? Ever since I upgraded to 2019.5.4 my car feels like it doesn't slow as quickly as it used to (setting is on standard). I'm currently on 2019.5.15 and it still feels like I'm using the brakes more than I used to...

I had a tax friend do the same thing and the results matched yours. Were you using "Drake" software?

I know that the solar can carry forward, but the question is whether or not it needs to be applied before the EV credit.

Sorry for the slightly OT question, but maybe it'll affect a few others in the same boat. After getting my M3, I decided to get more off the grid and look into installing solar. I am reading that the IRS applies the rebate for solar energy installation before that of a new EV. So if you got...
