    Model Y Hitch

    I assume the recessed location of the hitch will require the need of an extension. I have a 1upusa bike rack and they offer a receiver extension i think its about 8 inches... i assume i will need to use that

    My new Model Y's range SUCKS

    For the most part 95% of my driving is local and around town... 30-40 % usage maximum a day is the norm.... on the few times i take a trip i think the shorter range of the Y then expected maybe equates to an extra 30-60 minutes in charging and thats on a decent length trip. With that said...

    Tesla Selling the Tow Hitch at the shop

    Based on this i am not taking a chance with aftermarket...just ordered the Tesla one to be installed at local SC. Yea its an extra 700 or so but in the grand scheme of things..not having an issue or at least hoping Tesla is responsible if there is an issue is worth the extra $ considering I’m in...

    Tesla Selling the Tow Hitch at the shop

    I ordered the aftermarket, its on its way to me... now I’m thinking of cancelling/sending it back and go with factory due to the software that is part of the factory option... Currently dont own anything to trailer other then a bike rack..but maybe in the future...

    Cover for Heatpump to reduce Noise

    Improvements to newer MYs?

    I didn’t realize there was a separate ac compressor and heat pump...heat pumps usually run both cooling and heat so i thought it was all from the heat pump My local service center ordered the ac sound insulation but not the heat pump wrap.... i will need to get that part number

    Heat Pump Sound Issue?

    If anyone can get the detailed technical service info for the other fixes for the sound that would be greatly appreciated... I’m concerned the wrap is not the only answer as it is a vibrating buzz a litte..but i need to get the SC to listen to me as they currently say its normal and its not...

    Heat pump NVH insulation

    That’s interesting..are there any retrofits for the first batches? My local sc ordered the wrap but should i push them on the o ring seals also? I want to get all the fixes if possible if i can properly educate the SC on what is needed

    Heat Pump Sound Issue?

    I have a similar sound when the system first spins up for about 30-60 seconds..then gets quieter... According to my sc they say that is normal and the y is a noisier system... Btw, the heat pump wrap is now available...i was able to get them to order that in

    Any PUP owners removing their Spoilers?

    My spoiler was coming off so the local shop ordered a new one..the interesting thing is the spoiler came up as a model 3 spoiler description on the part in the Y catalog of parts.. Are they the same? Maybe thats why they dont fit great as they are not Y specific and the 3 is a little different...

    Has Anyone Who Ordered the Tow Hitch Received a Vin?

    Also a question on the vertical load limit vs tongue weight..not familiar on how to interpret that My bike rack is approximately 60 pounds, then each electric bike is 65 x 3. So about 250 pounds total weight... Does this fall into vertical or Tongue weight? Am i safe?

    Has Anyone Who Ordered the Tow Hitch Received a Vin?

    Can we order the hitch at this point or does the service center need to do it? The 200$ delta isn’t the end of the world though i think they should comp the early adopters on the 200 delta.. If i went aftermarket its 525 with electrical plus installation which i assume is worth 200-300 as it...

    Has Anyone Who Ordered the Tow Hitch Received a Vin?

    Hopefully they will allow ordering from the SC at that same price as the option on the new car.. Us early adopters that received it a month earlier then it offered should not be punished or charged more for the option that they should have offered a month earlier.... I have Ben considering...

    Just heard from Tesla. They are telling me since it wasn’t noted at delivery they will not do a shop to correct it. I’m sure I’m about to have a fight on this. I may just go girl touch up and call it a day

    Issue with HOV lane markings, confusing car

    With that said the car still starts the cross over...so if it felt the double broken line was not allowed to change it wouldn’t start the crossover... therefore i dont think Tesla thinks it should not go...its probably not seeing it as double lines and only single until it crosses the first...
