    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    I won't complain about having more chargers, but it seems like an odd location that's relatively far away from 23/94 exits. Either dealing with the mess that is the Washtenaw/Carpenter intersection or getting off at Michigan Ave and driving a few miles.

    Martian MW03 wheels installed on new MYP - photos

    I am happy with the combo after a summer of driving, although it is difficult for me to compare to the just 24 hours I had the Uberturbines on. From what I remember, the steering and handling is a tad less sharp which makes sense given the all-weather tires and increased sidewall, but the...

    Constantly rattling door at highway speeds - can you help me diagnose ahead of SC visit? [video]

    I actually tried this already and it picked up some rattles somewhere in the back of the car, but I couldn't find a frequency to replicate the the door panel rattle.

    Constantly rattling door at highway speeds - can you help me diagnose ahead of SC visit? [video]

    It's louder and more annoying IRL! You can hear it when playing audio. My 2016 S and 2019 3 were pretty much perfect over many years of driving the same roads, so it's frustrating the Y has all sorts of rattles (some consistent like this, others only noticeable when going over bumps) after just...

    Constantly rattling door at highway speeds - can you help me diagnose ahead of SC visit? [video]

    The vibrations in the vehicle - mainly at highway speeds - make the passenger door emit a fast-paced plastic-y rattling sound. If I reach across the car and apply light pressure to the plastic cupholder area, the noise goes away as long as I am applying pressure. Hoping to test this again with...

    I'm not sure if the 3's Aero wheels are rated for the weight of the Y.

    They are supposed to be a little better in snow/wet than "all-season"-grade tires are: https://www.discounttire.com/learn/all-weather-tires https://www.wheels.ca/news/all-weather-tires-are-not-the-same-as-all-season-and-heres-why/

    Martian MW03 wheels installed on new MYP - photos

    Since I’m running the same wheel and tire size as the OEM 19” Geminis (255/45 R19), all I had to do was to go into settings and select that wheel, and the speed calculations update appropriately!

    New tow hitch cover

    Thanks for the video! Hopefully they can iterate on that and have a flap or cover for the OCD among us who can't stand the hole :)

    New tow hitch cover

    I use a very thin one so I can get it in gap for some leverage with only very minimal wear to the plastic. (see thin one on right vs standard on left)

    New tow hitch cover

    I just took delivery of a MYP (June 2021 build) and the tow hitch cover (1494009-00-C) was very easy to remove using a flat screwdriver by just unclipping two of the tabs at the top with minimal pressure, and then using my fingers to pop the cover off. I had purchased the EveryAmp tool in...

    Yes :) Still deadly eye-paw coordination, though

    Martian MW03 wheels installed on new MYP - photos

    Honestly they went on the morning after I picked up the MYP, so I didn't have a great baseline. I would not be surprised, though! My personal wh/mi carrying the Uberturbines into the basement for storage was not great, though - those things are insanely heavy (like 65-70 lbs each with the tire)...

    Martian MW03 wheels installed on new MYP - photos

    I had a tough time finding good photos when I was searching for an aftermarket wheel/tire setup that would be lighter and have more sidewall than the stock Uberturbine combo, so I thought I'd post here. These are Martian MW03 19x9.5 (same as stock Gemini size) in Satin Black. No issues with...

    Cannot Sign Into YouTube

    None of the above methods are working for me, including the share to the Tesla app (although that is a cool feature I didn’t know about!)
