    Car Suddenly won't charge above 29 amps (M3LR)

    It was showing 29/29 amps, but after leaving the car unplugged overnight it is now charging at 40 amps again.

    Car Suddenly won't charge above 29 amps (M3LR)

    Week old Model 3 Long Range, charging off a Gen 1 UMC (from an old Model S, capable of max 40 amps) plugged into a 14-50 outlet on a 50 amp breaker. Car was originally charging at 40 amps no problem. Today I was messing around with the Tessie app while the car was charging, and I briefly turned...

    MASTER THREAD: USB drives that work with Sentry and TeslaCam

    I hope someone can help me, I'm having issues with my USB drive for the dashcam. I have two Model 3s, both are SR+, one with FSD and one without. I originally ordered two of these (Samsung 256GB Flash drive) as I saw it recommended online. After one of the most recent software updates, both cars...

    Supercharger - Valley Stream, NY

    Spotted a new Supercharger installation at Green Acres Mall in Valley Stream, NY. They are currently fenced off (and covered in garbage bags) in a parking lot behind Best Buy/near Bronx BBQ. I counted 11 stalls, but I assume they always come in pairs, so maybe a 12th hasn't been installed yet?

    Long Island, NY Supercharger locations 2017-2018

    Valley Stream is under construction at Green Acres Mall. They are currently fenced off (and covered in garbage bags) in a parking lot behind Best Buy/near Bronx BBQ. I counted 11 stalls, but I assume they always come in pairs, so maybe a 12th hasn't been installed yet?

    Can this be repaired? (Rear quarter panel, passenger side)

    Sure, it's J&D Hewlett Auto Body in Woodmere, NY.

    Can this be repaired? (Rear quarter panel, passenger side)

    Sorry for the late response. I went to a different body shop (not Tesla certified) and had both the quarter panel and the plastic rocker panel repaired, not replaced. Total cost was $1200. Some of you on here might be able to spot some irregularities, but to my untrained eye, it looks perfect...

    Can this be repaired? (Rear quarter panel, passenger side)

    Body shop didn't get back to me like they said they would, so for now I've just been driving the car and avoiding looking at the passenger side. I may bring it to a Tesla certified shop to get a second opinion as far as repair vs. replace.

    Sandy, can you tell me who you used to do your repair? I'd go to NJ if I had to. Thanks.

    Not sure what happened with the photos, here's a second attempt...

    Can this be repaired? (Rear quarter panel, passenger side)

    I had a little mishap with my Model S, unfortunately. The damage doesn't look that bad, but from reading some other threads on here, looks can be deceiving when it comes to Tesla body damage. I already took the car to a non-Tesla body shop that I have used in the past with other cars...

    Credit Union will not accept MVPA to fund my loan

    Sorry for the long delay in providing an update, I've been busy playing with my new (to me) Tesla. The asst. branch manager had already approved the paperwork by the time I got there at 9am. Got the check no problem (72 months at 2.19%, a rate I'm very happy with) and got my car a couple hours...

    Credit Union will not accept MVPA to fund my loan

    I did offer to put the DS on the phone with anyone from the branch that would speak with him; no one wanted to speak with him. I got the feeling that they were looking for excuses not to cut the check. They kept saying the loan is "very large" (it's not) and they want to make sure everything...

    Credit Union will not accept MVPA to fund my loan

    I'm having a major issue with my credit union (Bethpage FCU, in New York) and I'm looking for advice. I am supposed to take delivery of my CPO car tomorrow morning, and I went to the credit union this afternoon to pick up my check and found out that they will not accept the MVPA from Tesla...

    Tesla Model S CPO Website - Now Live

    My local credit union (Bethpage) offered me 2.09% for 60 months, 2.19% for 72 months (800+ credit score). They will finance up to 125% of the NADA book value. I haven't gone through with it yet for my CPO Tesla (car is still being serviced and shipped to my local SvC), but I have another loan...
