Greetings all. I drive a 2019 Fremont made model 3 standard range. The rear trunk latch had started opening only halfway. When the trunk automatically closed, it bangs into the latch and actuates the latch closed without grasping the eyelet/ hook. This leaves the trunk able to be manually...

Anyone have any strong feeling about getting a rwd Y vs performance Y? We're leaning towards the rwd as we don't care too much about performance, save the cash, save on tyres, save on energy use, etc. Only thing missing is a bit of range. We're in north Auckland, and downfalls on the range /...

Per the technicians, they're finding a high-temperature fault in the RWD motor when this occurs; hence the superbottle and RWD replacements. At present it remains a mystery.

After driving ~45 minutes at highway speed NOT IN TRAFFIC, the drive power tapers off and the car slows down. This is fixed by engaging regen for a few seconds; the drive power rises back up and the car drives at highway speeds for a few minutes, then it repeats. The other fix is that if you...

Well, we're still having the same issue: after driving ~45 minutes at highway speed NOT IN TRAFFIC, the drive power tapers off and the car slows down. This is fixed by engaging regen for a few seconds; the drive power rises back up and the car drives at highway speeds for a few minutes, then...

Word from Tesla Service is that an occlusion / ice in the coolant line would cause many additional alarms to pop up which didn't occur. However, 'oil' leaking from the motor would cause this picture. Motor was swapped out under warranty, will update if this doesn't resolve the issue. Thanks all!

Re: Thomas, yeah, I imagine that's it, it just seems odd that the coolant would do that. any idea what the composition of the rotor coolant is? If it's a glycol base like ice engines, one would think that the guys in Milwaukee doing the install would get the antifreeze mixture right. If it's...

Greetings all. I have a recurring rotor overheat issue I'd love your thoughts on. June 2018 bought rwd long range model 3. April 2020 rear motor fails and is replaced under warranty. December 24, after 45 min of driving in 15F temp, rotor starts to overheat at highway speeds causing...
