    Radio

    My 2022 MY gets the same usual radio stations that I've gotten in every other car that I've owned. If yours doesn't, then maybe it needs some service?

    Wall Charger

    Removing a charger is very simple. Installing it at your new house... there are so many variables, it's impossible to guess what the cost might be.

    2024.2.7 Sucks?

    I haven't noticed anything change with 2024.2.7

    Tesla wall connector habits

    General consensus is to keep a lower state of charge if that's all you need. So 50% would be better than 80%.

    Increased radio/audio bugs...

    I haven't had any issues with audio recently. Maybe you have a faulty thumb drive?

    Thread for the most minor of suggestions

    That would be nice. And I do the same thing - manual because I hate when auto feels like it's blowing cool air in winter. But I'll switch to auto for a while if windows start fogging up inside.

    Power window question

    I think what you are seeing is normal behavior in cold weather. From the manual: "In cold temperatures, Model Y automatically makes a slight adjustment to the position of the windows to make it easier to open doors."...

    Fan on, heat and ac off?

    That sounds like old advice. I think it was an old problem that Tesla fixed by automatically running the fan for a while when it needs to dry out the HVAC system. But if you really want to run the fan only: - take HVAC out of "Auto" - turn off AC - set the desired temperature to something...

    Preheating Battery plugged in?

    I agree with the replies so far, but am wondering what you are trying to accomplish - warm the cabin for comfort , or something else? I'll warm the cabin up on really cold mornings, whether it's plugged in or not - I don't think it uses that much power for 5 or 10 minutes of warming. I don't...

    I left my lights in overnight

    The 12 volt battery is charged by the car's main (big) battery. Since your car was still alive in the morning, I don't think there's anything to worry about.

    Cruise Control Car length setting annoyance

    I change the following distance by tilting the right scroll wheel left or right. I think you have to be in cruise control to that, but you don't need to be closely following another vehicle. It always remembers what I set it to, so I've never even thought of looking for an option in settings.

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    Similarly, in some recent update, tilting the left scroll-wheel right / left no longer goes to my next / previous favorite FM radio station. Instead, it jut goes to the next station that it can tune to. Annoying. Now I have to bring up a list of radio stations on the touchscreen and select a...

    Missing speed camera on map

    In my car, it only seems to show traffic lights and stop signs a short distance ahead on my route. If I browse around the map, it's not showing me lights and signs that are not on my route. Also, it stop showing me any lights and signs that I just passed. This is fine with me.

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    I got the update 2 days ago and took it for a long drive yesterday. One improvement I noticed in AP: when your lane suddenly widens because your lane merged with another, the car no longer swerves into the "new" middle of the lane. It now picks a nice line or travel, pretty much what I would...

    Bioweapon mode experience - how often do you all use it?

    I've had my MY almost 2 years, never once used bioweapon defense mode. Never felt the need for it.
