    FSD Beta tries to crash through light colored but not dark colored community gate?

    Not going to even read your full post because I know how crap FSD is. Save yourself property/physical damage to yourself and turn off FSD beta until V12 is released.

    Power Trunk Retrofit on Model 3s now Available Direct from Tesla [09.14.2023 - 2018 model 3 not eligible]

    Just got mine installed! Works as expected. The trunk does seem quite low to me, will need to mind my head when putting things in. Overall happy with it!

    Tesla Model 3 charging slow.

    Are you sure you are charging at 22KW? I am not sure this is possible from 230 V 40 amp circuit. Are you using the Tesla Mobile connector or the Tesla Wall charger? Hopefully someone smarter than me chimes in because I never knew 22KW charging at home with a Tesla was possible (max I thought I...

    1 month old Tesla Model 3 Long range T-Boned [Is this totaled?]

    For your sake, I hope it's totaled and you get a new car quickly. I would be pissed if I got a new car and it was that badly damaged 1700 miles in. Good luck!

    How to remove this glue residue on the dashboard?

    Goof off / Goo gone may work.

    Model Y front parking sensor detached - can I fix it myself?

    You will need to remove the frunk tub. Mine fell in on my model 3 and I used some gorilla glue to put it back in (still holding strong despite heavy rain here in Portland). Take a look here.

    Sentry Mode: CAUGHT in the act keying my car with knife

    Sorry this happened! You should file a police report (I would if I was in your position). Wasting police time should not be your concern as a tax-payer. If they are truly so busy solving more severe crimes (murders, kidnappings, etc.), they won't get to your case anyways. Doesn't hurt, and the...

    Side Repeater Camera Quality Improved?

    Yes there was an update that changed the overall color/overlay color. It does look better, but I am unsure if the actual quality changed.

    When did you last touch your brake pedal?

    Mine has standard and low last I checked

    When did you last touch your brake pedal?

    Every time I drive. I feel as if Tesla degraded my M3 regen braking and is now doing it to my MY to spite me. I recently drove a MY loaner and the regen was MUCH stronger than both of my cars. Pisses me off as it is one of the advantages to EV's (for me anyways).

    Why is my model Y interior all carpet?

    Yes a lot of it is carpet (more like cheap felt material). You will have to buy 3rd party coverings to make it easily cleanable.

    What products are these?

    That is a waffle-weave microfiber towel. Not sure on the cleaner. I just use Meguiars interior cleaner and it works great.

    Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)

    It is comical that my KIA optima had RCTA, and my much more expensive Teslas don't. I hope Tesla Vision can provide something similar.

    What's your opinion on buying this 2020 Model Y?

    Warranty aside, I highly suggest you take a deep-dive into the differences between the new model years and the 2020. Some changes are quite dramatic (like the new CPU, and what I believe to be a superior cellular antenna that makes using the infotainment applications much quicker (no proof other...

    What's your opinion on buying this 2020 Model Y?

    I would personally not buy any Tesla that is nearly out of warranty. Granted, the battery and drivetrain warranty are going to be good until 2028. But I find a new squeak and creak in my both my M3 and MY monthly (just had them fix a really annoying one with my rear view mirror yesterday). If I...

    New owner ?’s

    Congrats on the car! Looks great. I believe you are referring to this security/car alarm which you can read more about on that page. I would strongly advise you to not consider buying FSD. Subscribe to it for a month if you are really interested, but 12K for faulty software is a scam on...

    Cable under garage, good pass thru

    I don't have a wall connector, but I did have my 14-50 outlet for my mobile connector installed in my garage. Both my cars are parked in my driveway, so I drilled a sizeable hole in my wall to my driveway and put a cover on it, then slid the cable through. Has been working fine!

    Enjoy your car. Some people on here have too much time to scrutinize EVERYTHING. You are happy with your purchase, and are sharing it with everyone. Good luck, and drive it in good health!

    Should I sell??

    Personally, I wouldn't with the current rates. Especially since it seems you like to finance the entire car payment (not that there is anything wrong with that). Out of curiosity, why are you wanting to sell?

    Tesla Model 3 Battery Died!

    That really sucks! I know 132K miles is not a small amount, but with all Elon said about the longevity of Teslas, I was expecting it to start kicking around 200K! It does raise an interesting question, what can you really do other than pay for a new/remanufactured battery or sell the car...

    Model Y - HW4 - Camera Issue

    We will have to agree to disagree. The repeater cameras are an aid, but having them lagging by 30s like the OP suggests definitely does not increase safety. I would be lacking basic driving skills if I saw that my camera was lagging heavily (deeming them a safety hazard to use), then proceeded...

    Model Y - HW4 - Camera Issue

    Not debating if the cameras are replacements to using common sense. The cameras on a $50K should be fully functional. For example, no one would debate that a reverse camera showing a vehicle farther away than it actually is isn't a safety hazard, it is. Using the vehicles cameras != lacking...

    Model Y - HW4 - Camera Issue

    If the associate gets back to you, let us know what they say. I agree it is a safety hazard. If the cameras weren't meant to be used, why on earth would they be on the car? Since they are on the car, they better be accurate! Maybe a calibration will set the cameras straight.

    Battery Question

    Pray you have to replace it tomorrow under warranty because your warranty will not restart (even if they give you a new pack).

    HW4

    FSD can see fine during the day (at least from what I see on my dashcam footage). Even during the day it can't make a blind left turn, or properly change lanes at pace with traffic (among other gaping problems). I don't see how higher resolution and a better night sensor fixes that. I genuinely...

    HW4

    Looks like it definitely has better resolution. But common sense is telling me this wont do anything meaningful for FSD. I mean, cameras are in a crap spot, no radar, unreliable software. Hope I'm wrong, but I'm not getting FOMO from upgraded resolution.

    New 2023 Model Y owner

This video can help you access it. Another thing you can check if you think your battery is extremely hot...

    New 2023 Model Y owner

    I do not have a high pitch buzzing sound in either of my cars. The electric whine of the motors are apparent though. You already have an appointment for your AC, let Tesla diagnose it. I would not be surprised if something with the AC was delivered malfunctioning. What noise are you referring...

    Bad experience ordering a Tesla - For pickup in Washington State and Roadtrip Home to Alaska

    Sorry you had such a poor experience! I can relate to wanting to pickup your car in Washington to save on delivery fees. When I ordered my M3, Tesla only told me very late that the temp plate would only be good for a few days, and that I should just get it delivered to Portland and get a few...

    Have you noticed a loss of MAX regen after the last two vehicle software updates? (Original LR RWD 310 mile owners)

    Yes! My 2022 MY and my 2020 M3 feel like the regen is in the dumpster. This is the opinion of not just myself, but of 3 others that have driven both cars. I would love some clarification directly from Tesla as to why this is, and not just forum speculation (as great as that is).

    Exterior paint problem

    I don't think anyone thinks Tesla shouldn't correct the issue, however, Tesla are penny-pinchers and will do whatever it takes to not acknowledge fault so they don't lose money. I cannot tell what is really wrong with the paint because of the reflection of the sun. It appears to be major...

    Thoughts on Medusa Black wheel covers for Model Y

    Not trying to be a jackass, but just want to make sure you know these are wheel covers and not an actual set of new wheels? Other than that, I also purchased black wheel covers from Taslem for my Model Y. My opinion is that the Medusa's look better. In hindsight, I probably should have just...

    2023 Model 3, less than 2 months old, never been through a car wash, and the black trim has gotten weird - see pics.

    Hey, I get staining on my Model Y anytime I go through a touchless car wash. Something about the soap pH causes this (granted mine does not look exactly like yours). I know you said you haven't been through a car wash, but it may be worth rubbing it with some WD-40 on a microfiber and seeing if...

    Involved in an Accident with Model 3 - 2023 | Need opinion and tips on handling claim

    I have no doubt you did the morally right thing by avoiding her car and potentially saving her from death/major injury, but, as I am sure you know by now, no good deed goes unpunished. I agree with the poster below me in saying contact your insurance and let them fight with the girls insurance...

    Involved in an Accident with Model 3 - 2023 | Need opinion and tips on handling claim

    Hope you are well! I am sad to say that this footage (in my opinion) does not help you. It essentially looks as if you over-reacted and drove yourself off the road. The guy is a complete moron for turning into your lane, though I feel like if you would have hit that idiot head on you would have...

    What do you think of the Tesla lawsuit regarding EPA mileage?

    Maybe the lawsuit has some basis. The average driver isn't getting anything near EPA range, and the average driver has come from a gas car that gets something near what the MPG shows on the sticker. EPA range itself is a joke, no one really drives 45 mph on a highway (or whatever the heck they...

    Trade 23 MY for one with Hardware 4?

    No way! FSD is cheeks, what will HW4 really do? I HIGHLY doubt higher resolution will solve FSD's many problems (and if you aren't buying it for FSD, then I am unsure what the point of the upgrade is for at all). My opinion would be to keep your car.

    FSD Capabilities

    Some older Teslas do not have FSD capabilities. You can usually spot these by the lack of side repeater cameras, however I believe some have repeater cameras but lack the proper top-mount center cameras in the car and autopilot computer (or something like that), but they offer an upgrade for a...
