    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    Sorry for the late reply! It was a PTC heater issue. It was replaced and was $870. CareX warranty covered it less the deductible

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    Car diagnostic done. I was told the PTC heater needs to be replaced. There was nothing wrong w/ the 12V. I'll replace the 12V anyway since it's been 5 years. Thank god for my extended service contract. Looks like I'm covered for the heater replacement.

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    I never got the 12V replacement warning. That error didn’t pop up until the car completely died. I believe once I parked the car, it wasn’t able to “sleep”. I kept hearing the battery connector making the clanking noise from outside every few minutes. it stopped once, based on my assumption, the...

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    I agree with the point about replacing the 12V. Would it make sense to have it towed to the tesla and have them do it and if it fixes problem, great. If not, more diagnostics to be done at that point. I have AAA and I also have the X-care extended warranty plan. Does it make sense to call AAA...

    XPEL Ultimate Plus PPF durability?

    Hey all, I have had my XPEL PPF and Ceramic Pro for 10 months. A week ago, a large rock hit the hood and looks like it skipped on the hood as it left a couple of marks. The initial point of impact looked so bad that it literally tore off the PPF and the paint underneath. Now that I have a...

    New LR AWD 322mi range: will existing LR AWD cars get the increased range?

    Drop is not linear with time though? Assuming you maintain it. Don't overcharge or discharge... degradation should eventually plateau right?

    Rear defroster/defogger operate only below certain ambient temp?

    I had my windows tinted 3 weeks ago. I had no issues with the defroster/defogger in the days ahead. In the past few days, it's been quite humid. Each morning, my rear windows are fogged up. The outside temp is showing in the 80F range. I tried using the defogger function and it would not do...

    I believe it does have an OBD port. I’m using it right now. It’s right below the the vents facing the rear seats. There’s a plastic trim that comes off. I have an adapter plugged in. Provided by my electric utility company to monitor charging

    SPOILER ALERT: My P3D came with its spoiler

    It's not as wide as OEM. I like Tesla's more. The price is tempting though.

    Am at a loss: is the $2k FSD offer going away on Monday?

    This thread is quite long... can someone tell me if my EAP (purchased with ordering of car in June 2018) would be grandfathered into the features advertised before the shuffling of features that we now see in FSD/AP? In order words, do 2018 EAP customers get enhance summons?
