What year is your? miles? free supercharge? paying 15k is totally worth it for a clean old car with supercharge. Free advice: when you finish your car payment and want to keep a car (nothing wrong with that), treat that car like you still have payment on it (take half of what you pay monthly...

do you have a video about it? I have slight similar rattle when I first drive and turn the yoke.

As other said Tesla is like other expensive car, anything could happen out of warranty and that is the risk you take especially with an 8 years old car that is considered first gen. Check the most expensive stuff like:L drive unit and battery and budget 15-20K just incase. Every time I decided...

I would inspect the badge too for sure.

true I just wanted to be realistic :) If you do not live by the beach or an area where they use salt for snow then 100K miles for sure if you take care of them.

Stop being nice and ask the Manufacturer to be nice too. if it is out of warranty then they will not cover it unless it was so close to expiration or had the same concern before that they tried to address during warranty period. You SHOULD be 10000% upset espicaly if you had loved ones with you...

buy one then

You should use brakes every now and then (40-50 mile and with lite push to slow the car till 10) to remove rust and any debris. If you clean them regularly and drive normal. they should last you 50k miles or more.

All highway explains everything as it will consume way more power. Tesla EPA range is like ICE range at best case value (for ICE it is on the highway, for EV it is in the city where regen kicks in). My Plaid on the highway at 75-80MPH does 350 wh/mile and if you do the math on a 96kwh battery...

Ouch glad you are safe. In my wife case, the rear power unit failure caused this. It is super dangerous but Tesla said when the car lost power the PS stopped working. I have all communication documented with them just in case.

I am staying at 36.1 ;) not touching it !!

2022.40.1 started to rollout, who is brave enough to try it first :) ?

The tool is there regardless of recall or not, there is no software lock that limit them to use it . They are just lazy.

Not true. SC has the tools to force your VIN to get a software, they done it for me when they forced the update to fix the screen overheating and flicker when supercharging back in April (Tesla recalls 130,000 vehicles due to CPU overheating, but the fix is again a software update) with...

This SC is incompetent. Tell them to get you updated to 2022.36.2 before you pick up the car to fix the issue. if they did make sure to check the rear screen as .36 has some reports of causing blank screen in the rear display.

damn they are trying to screw you over. the Plaid tires Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 295/30/ZR21 are only $420 a piece (rear), the fronts are cheaper

any bets they will reintroduced the buzzing sound with that fix ?

no way to downgrade :( I pushed Tesla hard on this when they introduced the buzzing sound with 2022.24.6. I would suggest to not do anything and let Tesla deal with it, last thing you want is them to use your service re-install attempt against you because they are great at BS excuses. Keep...

same for me. this 2022.36 update was very very scary

could be they are prepping 2022.36.3 anyways 20.22.36.1 was a scary update as it stuck for really long time on 60% then in my case at least my car started to report battery is 0% for 10 minutes then the update finished (90 minutes in total)

Do we know or have confirmation why 2022.36.2 shipped quickly? What did they break in .1 😂?

Yeah, it might not be locked 100% but for sure 99% . you should be able to steer more than what she was able when the adrenaline kicks in. She was able to moved it only few degrees to the right, also when she stopped the couple of guys who stopped to help could not even move it to put the car...

Hello All, So this happened to my wife this weekend with her brand new 22 MYP (6 weeks old and 2000 miles). While driving on main road at 45MPH (thank god she was not on the highway), the car completely lost power and started to beep with error codes and the crazy part it locked the steering...

Doesn’t happen to me , i put the car in park and the dome light slider stayed on auto

my interest in the Plaid was not because it is a Tesla. but because of the performance without paying supercar money. I know for sure there will be other EVs in 4-5 years from now and they will be built better in terms of quality, but history showed us that old car manufacturer will still way up...

Yeah for sure. I wonder if he is here and can share which SC gave him this info as it seems someone in Tesla actually did do their job and got us a good information on when to expect a fix.

Hello no!!! no more updates for me. if this 36.1 is good I will not update.

lol, yes it is fixed now. I reported the issue initially a month ago and so far the car is quiet now. But I have to warn you the update was scary, check my posts above. It stuck at 60% for a long time then when it jumped to 80% I got warning that my car battery is 0%!!!!!!! (doors locked...

Tesla pushes it based on whatever algorithm they use but it seems all of us who complained before and are in the system got the last 3 updates on day 1 so open a service request and ask them. I have seen it take 3-4 days before so you will hear from SC for sure before that.

just wait we will find something else quick :)

First thing to do now is this. No more early installer crap!!!

Update complete no buzzzzzzz The battery is back to 65%. One hell of a scare!!!!

It is at 80% but i got this. The car was at 66% battery before starting !!!!! WTF Tesla it is saying 0% battery

mine also stuck at 60% (23 min since update started). give it the full 50-60 min. I seen this before as it stuck for a while on 60% then it goes fast.

Is the car drivable and still on old software? Or it is limbo now? Open a service request. It seems they are responding quickly to anyone who complains about the buzzing. They might reset it remotely and push it again.

Ouch. What version you were at before? What percentage it failed at?

Yes, updating now 🤞🏼

I am gonna be a d**k and say I hope they merge the bug by mistake. these FSD cars gets more media attention and if they started to Buzzzzzzzzzzzz while driving then maybe Lord Musk will push the fix soon.

Coming soon means 2026 :) I have no clue how those crapy camera (which are good for FSD and big stuff) will show distances in inches to smaller objects.

One more charge since last update and trend still down (someone reported it fluctuate per charge up and down so i would love to see screenshot of the trend from whatever App is being used)

I do not think there will be a 2022.32, only one we see so far (not officially releases yet) is 2022.36 Tesla Software Updates & Release Notes - Latest Tesla Updates per the release history of releasing a version after announcement (check the list above of each old version and noticed the 1-2...

One more charge last night and battery dropped another 0.1% Was 0% for 6 months before updating to this garbage 2022.24.6 and since then it dropped by 0.5% in less than 3 weeks.

Yeah, what most us been doing last few weeks since we encountered this is to disable Sentry mode when parked home so the car can go to sleep ( keep key fobs away and do not open the App) and when the car goes to sleep the aound will stop. Hopefully 2022.36 will fix this mess.

People are reporting they needed to go the dealer: BlueCruise OTA update Anyways not the right place to discuss other OEMs here.

to be honest other manufacturers has either A) no updates at all b) if they did update, they will never allow you to downgrade due to the fact their framework is more of a firmware baked into the chip that is PITA to write. I had issues with bothe Cadillac garbage CUE software and Audi MMI...

No one know. we heard from different SC that it could be the main manifold , some pump. but it is confirmed that the sound starts after the click sound which is main battery connector engaged.

That's not what I have seen on 3 Teslas that I have/had access to. Usually once it goes down, it never goes up, at least that was the case in my situation in FL where temperature does not change a lot. maybe different if you have bigger temperature swing.

the sound happen 100% after the click as other said so it has to be something within the high voltage system. or maybe something else that has to be ON when the main battery contacts click.

Thanks. I hope so. So far S/X per Tesla SC and also my wife Y has no issue.

before the issue started the degrdation was at 0% for 6k miles. Since the issue started on 9/6. I only did 3 charges, drove 250 miles and it dropped 0.4% So tell me this is not an issue!
