    Window damaged trim because of cold weather, Tesla won't replace under warranty

    every frameless window car i've ever owned didn't have to roll down the windows to open the door. it was a design "feature" Tesla decided on to reduce wind drag. most frameless windows "leak" after a while. my assumption is Tesla chose this design to prevent that.

    Rear Seat Heaters Confirmed

    my biggest problem was the salespeople had no clue they weren't standard and touted it as a feature of the SR+ i test drove.

    SR+ Ambient Lighting

    its been pretty heavily documented. the a-pillar and rear speakers are not wired for audio and you cannot hook them up to the current audio as they would be under powered. while the speakers are perfectly fine, you'll need another amp.

    my tesla wakes up veryyyy slowly

    i hate this term "heard" when referring to BT. BT is a radio transmission. if there is something obstructing the transmitter, it's not going to be "heard". when i run with my phone in my belt and with BT headphones, the audio will often get interrupted, but if i have my phone on the other...

    Borrowing Public WiFi...

    honestly i don't think the updates are frequent enough to worry about your cell plan, unless you're still on an older GB restricted plan. i think you're in a tough spot, TBH. best case is to have overnight access to WiFi whenever possible.

    Update at 100% downloaded, but then nothing

    do the reboot with the brake pedal. if that doesn't work, try turning wifi off/on and forgetting your AP. if that doesn't work, try the "tap advanced update" five times trick to see if you can "re-force" the update... ... if that doesn't work, go find Tesla Chat and have them re-push.

    are you talking center console, above the cup holders? i have the crappy $7 chinese one that holds some coins, glasses, etc. considering switching to the deeper one that "covers" the USB ports as most of the trays block the light.

    Dead pedal - dead in 2020

    ok i've been passively watching this thread and this is just asinine. i hope there was an actual, technical reason for removing the dead pedal. i've yet to get any response from elon or tesla on any of my social media posts so i doubt asking will get you anywhere.

    Best practices for locking phone in car

    i haven't had many issues with the phone re-pairing/re-connecting after disabling BT, maybe you just need to give it time? This could be model specific to your phone and BT in general. I think you're "right" in that you need to disable BT on your phone. Another thread here was complaining...

    Aftermarket accessories and range loss (or not)

    i recall some other threads on here testing various accessories you have listed and the results were minimal at best. the biggest accessory impact being a roof mounted bike carrier. the rack alone had minimal impact, but nearly any item being carried on it had a sizable increase in usage.

    everyone in here hit the nail on the head. the STi is an over-priced, long in the tooth, flagship "racecar" offered by a legacy auto maker that has been "playing" the popularity game for the last 10+ years, just to keep up. their style, fit and finish and technology have all severely lacked...
