Get the slime kit. It’s the same as the one Tesla sells but much less expensive. So far I’ve gotten two flats in my MY, one in my Clarity, all three times the slime worked and got me to the Tesla service center (or regular tire shop) where I got a new tire and was on my way in about an hour (all...

I feel like I’m a weirdo here. In 5 months and 4000 miles of ownership its phantom braked on me once now. (I run AP whenever I get on the highway) My old Honda clarity would phantom brake on me once every week or two. The Tesla system has been a dream compared to the Honda adaptive cruise...

This is the reason I’d choose to view percentage over miles. In my old car (clarity) it would estimate your range based on you past 30 miles of driving efficiency. This made the displayed range vary wildly and was completely useless in my opinion. I.e. To estimate how long till I needed to stop...

I think everyone hit the points of ev range killers for winter but I just did a road trip here in SoCal with my wife and 2 kids, 75F temps outside and little to no wind. I averaged 243 wh/mi, got basically the advertised range. I exceeded the trip planner estimates by 10% on each leg of my trip...

Usually a fast signal means something is wrong like a bulb is burned out, but that’s not it since your front signal works. Check the rest of your lights but also the fuses. If it’s not one of those I’d take it in for service something is likely faulty with the wiring.

I frequently have to reboot to get the radio to work. I am able to select a streaming station in my favorites but if I try FM radio or to browse for a new streaming station all I get is a white screen and a spinning load icon in the center. I have to reboot almost daily to get this working

My 2021 model Y got its first update over cellular. I didn’t have WiFi set up in my garage yet, nor connected to my home WiFi and the update came over just fine, so only vector would be via cellular for the update.

For me the switch happened on 1/7 and supercharger visits don’t even show in my account anymore

Fwiw I used to take my electric clarity with a whopping 89 miles of range up to wrightwood. I would need to charge it up fully at Victoria gardens (near base of Cajon pass) and barely make it up the hill. I had a friend there with a welder, so I could plug into his 6-50 outlet and charge up...

I have the same issue with my mirror. I called the mobile service out to fix it and he checked it but said the mechanism was operating as designed. So my take is that it was poorly designed, or designed for full self driving where we don’t need side view mirrors maybe? Lol

I picked mine up on the 22rd of Dec 2020 and mine doesn’t say that. Should I call and complain?

Im pretty sure they are running the front motor inefficiently to produce extra waste heat to condition the battery. Mine does the same but only when navigating to supercharger.

I just ended up cancelling my RWD order and placing a new one, instead of modifying it. I just got my car 3 days ago. I did this to get my friends referral code in there. The $2500 deposit was returned in about 1 week. All pretty seamless in my opinion.

My last car didn’t have a spare but I kept one of those slime inflator kits in there. Got a puncture flat pulling into Disneyland and I used it. It worked great, made it home no problem and drove it to a tire shop the next day for a patch, it won’t solve every flat but if you get something worse...

No clue which ones are the “new” ones but mine look like the ones on the white car you posted.
