Make sure that your 14-50 receptacle is oriented so that the mobile connector cable is pointing down. This will almost eliminate the strain on the connector. Also make sure you you use a good quality 14-50 receptacle (virtually anything but Leviton).

I have a 2018 LR rwd Model 3. when I first got the car, hitting the manual release opened the door, but the window did not drop, leaving a little ding in the metal trim. Sometime in the last four years the window began going down in the same way it does with the normal door release. Another...

My wife and I have identical Iphone 11's running on T-Mobile. They both work fine as keys and the car recognizes them. However, My wife's phone will not hook up with the car to make or receive calls. I've tried everythink I can think of to make the connection, but it still won't work. Any...

I have a 2018 Model 3 with EAP. It has HW2.5 - no problem. HW-3.0 is needed for FSD.

I had a similar problem. I did a "2 button reset" and everything ,wifi wise, went back to normal.

What I've done is turn the hot spot off on the iPhone and then turn it on again. After a few seconds, the car will see the iPhone.

It's been my impression that the the turn signal display in the lower left corner of the screen is virtually useless. First, it's really out of practcal vision range from a safety point of view. It really should be up just under the speed display. Second, it's almost always too dark. Third...

Had the same problem yesterday (6/3/22) The car wanted to do an update. (2022.12.3.16). There was no wifi. A two button reset did the trick. As soon as the reset finished, Wifi was back on and the update proceded.

And don't even remind me of the total lack of a RCTAS (rear cross traffic alert system).

This is a true "first world" problem. I feel your pain.

I've had auto-open struts that I installed 3 years ago. Other than the fact that they have become sluggish in opening, everything works just fine. A little WD-40 on the struts once in a while fixes the sluggishness.

I finally got the answer - from Tesla. I scheduled a service visit at the ft Lauderdale, FL center. They seemed to be totally swamped. It was handled very professionally. The put me in an UBER and sent me to Enterprise Rent A Car. I got a Chevy Equinox for 4 days (no cost to me). VERY NICE...

That's all the info shone in the control page. The question is: What is Error a552. It could be as minor as a dead parking lite. Or something major.

Thanks for the info. I assume that you are refering to the control page on the car itself, not the app. I'll give it a try.

Just got this fault soon after a firmware upgrade to 2022.4.5 on my 2018 M3 EAP LR RWD. Everything seems to be working otherwise. Any ideas?
