    Loud POP under front end when supercharging

    Yes it also pops when you're driving which is more disconcerting because it feels like you hit something.

    Multiple Sentry alerts

    While I see the on-screen Sentry event occur, it shows a 1. Yet there are a lot of recent recorded videos. Not sure what those videos are categorized as for being recorded.

    The new FSD computer vs HW2.0/2.5 with ONLY AP or EAP

    Yes agree, other assists that improve the experience of AP - is one reason I think price is high. Something they know the public doesn't yet.

    Then try to smoke me, yeah right. Why drive like a Prius? Are you talking about driving like a Prius which mean slow or accelerating?

    Early Access Program Invite Blog Post Missing?

    Too many 150K+ who purchased FSD to run amok with beta software. You get a spoiler and badge by appointment. They wont invite amass since theyre busy enough.

    As a motorcycle rider, Teslas esp Model 3 drivers, are a new form of Prius drivers.

    FSD just increased price

    I purchased FSD because of FOMO and reading how the current hw2.5 runs near capacity. At most this means hw2.5 will get bug fixes and will not have more major features. My other thoughts was that Elon and co often add unannounced features and that may not be part of the main bullet points for...

    Sentry Keeper- free Windows software to manage your Sentry videos

    Thanks, much appreciate your efforts! Do you think there could be a zoom feature with the mouse wheel?

    Sentry Keeper- free Windows software to manage your Sentry videos

    @astrowunder Thank you for this software, it is working well for me on Win10. I think you mentioned it - I tend to save off the folder to my PC's local drive to browse. I think it would be great if you can also browse to a local drive to play videos.

    SR+ as sole family vehicle and for long road trips ?

    Are those planned stops at under 70 mph, for warm weather, no AC, need a lot of bathroom and stretch breaks? Do it. The new S with 370 mi range starts to be serious.

    Eibach Releases Performance Pack Lowering Springs

    Agree with both ElementPowder and SkyWalk3r's comments - make it look really meh in that black pic. Pic is also not flat so its hard to judge. Wheels gotta be flush with a slight rake otherwise it looks like you're hauling a fatass (so sorry its not a PC term).

    [FAKE] Ride-share company purchases Times-Square Billboard Complaining about 1.5yr Repair Times

    Yeah, curious. I owned one of the first Volts in 2010, pearl white no less. Had zero issues. The acceleration was wonderful compared to ICE and quiet too. Wonder where was the crowd at..

    My car was 94 degrees inside and it is still only spring!

    Works well IMO. I wish there was something as thin if I needed to replace it.

    EXPERIENCE: 2400 miles trip Model 3 SR Plus

    Even if you really plan for a 500mi trip, the energy use can be unpredictable. Try climbing a hill with 500lb of people and luggage, that range will drop faster than ICE. Someone else also came to the same issue and said the range has to be 500mi to really displace ICE for long trips. I think...

    How much does your electricity cost?

    Without solar, it seems Bay Area, CA still has the highest electric rates. E-TOU-B off peak rate still being higher than EV-A rate at .127. Is going solar the next step to go lower?

    Irritated after 4 days of SR ownership.

    Whenever I see another model 3 approach, its hard to judge from the front what trim it is. As soon as it turns, I see the wheels, caliper..and I know I'm not the only one who does this ..automatically categorize that car as "el cheapo (18"), ok good enough (19", P3D-), at least Im not missing...

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    I'm not defending anything. But you seem to claiming one over another without actual test rides. What do you think is the noise while driving on the road coming from a 2018 Camry vs a 2018 Model 3? Your disbelief is only because of what you experienced yet not even the same model years to...

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    Like I said, I rode in all 3 models before I purchased mine. I couldn't tell my co-worker that the car is so damn noisy in the rear. As a driver or passenger, it isn't as noisy. Also as mentioned, the car is fine for your grocery hopping needs. It isn't as comfortable or quiet as my ICE cars for...

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    I think your cars are noisier than mine. I'm pretty surprised that the 2018 Camry XSE is much quieter especially in the back seat with 19" wheels than my Performance. Yes it is harsher riding but differed little between other Model 3's I sat in.

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    Depends on how nice your ICE is. Both my Camry and Pilot are quieter and more comfortable than the Model 3. The longer the trip, the less advantage the Model 3 has. I hate to say it as I love the car to be all but it doesnt.

    Performance or LR Dual Motor for commute?

    To be honest, after driving my P3D+ from Bay Area to Las Vegas and compared my latest road trip to Oregon in my SUV, I felt that this is really a city car. With that, a performance model will do. On long trips, even with the short supercharging, you still have to stop, which is a drag on the...

    Rust on Upper Forelink Bushing?

    I have a P3D+ but haven't had the opp to look without the wheel. However that looks like the cover to the actual bushing which is still black. Seems to me the arm and bushing is one piece.

    Has Any P3D+ Owners Gotten Carbon Fiber Spoiler?

    Dropped my car in to the SC this morning and they will apply the spoiler and badge. Looks like they are on as requested basis. Still don't like them on, still like it clean. Asked for it to be left in the trunk.

    How many Teslas you see a day?

    Too many in the bay area, especially white ext and aero wheels, followed by any color with aero wheels.

    Does Sentry TeslaCam work?

    Some of the older saved folder files recorded a busy freeway that is visible on the right repeater. I can understand the cars moving triggered it to record. But a car that approached mine on the same side doesn't get recorded...strange.
  34. C

    Does Sentry TeslaCam work?

    So its the triggering into alert mode that is where my confusion is. Some of the repeater videos recorded the garage lights changing and other cars passing behind my car. When a car is parked closely next to mine, it doesn't trigger anything. Any reason why?

    Does Sentry TeslaCam work?

    I've been really puzzled by how the sentry dashcam works. I always park in the same spot in the garage and a co-worker's car is always parked on the right side of mine. So I would assume that the right-repeater cam would capture his arrival. Yet I don't see it in any videos of under Recent or...

    Made the right call upgrading from EAP to FSD for 2k

    In for FSD at 2K last night, have 2018 EAP. Not really sure why all this vaporware complains. We're pioneers, beta testers, etc. Have you not spent a couple G's for a PC that is now obsolete? Perhaps Moore's law is in effect but thats ok. Wouldnt pay 5K for FSD though.

    Model 3 Software Update 2019.9.x

    WHAT? Now firmwares take back features?!! Insane. (I'm not really that surprised since trial EAP became AP for those who shelled for AP.)

    Anyone going to upgrade to FSD before March 18th?

    My autopilot upgrade for FSD is still 2K. Maybe the due date of the 18th was a teaser before it actually goes up. FOMO is rising..

    What's your favorite color combo?

    While I have a white/black car, I'm starting to think the black/white is better. Then suddenly I think grey looks great because its the most flexible with customization, imo. I still like white/black but way too many..

    Vorsteiner 20" Wheels

    I have to say car looks badass with those and like the Zara Gray finish. Anyway to see that on a car? Now you gotta lower the car. A must - flush those wheels. I want to do this. It just looks so much better.

    Snow Chain 20"

    That looks like a really fun drive. The timeshare I have is up highway 207 Kingsbury Road. Going up the mountain with lights pointed upwards and seeing nothing on the road like that in the picture was a bit challenging. My 4-wheel Pilot steered like a boat.

    Snow Chain 20"

    Is Performance Worth It?

    "do you need to drag race everyone at the stop light?" Not so much drag race but I like to get away from stupid drivers. The next guy may think I'm drag racing. We have a lot of babyboomers in the bay area that drive like theres a lot of time left in life. Don't get me wrong, I'm not into the...
