    Phone Key Not Working Well Anymore

    Ran into this with the recent Tesla mobile app update. I think you are correct.

    Supercharging Transfer

    Slim to none as @Cutch26 pointed out in Feb.

    Is the HEPA filter used all the time?

    Too early to tell. I've replaced the in cabin filters about every 18 months or so. Hoping to see if this extends the life of them.

    Rusty (yellowish) liquid coming from center of the both front wheels

    Rust from the wheel hub. Pop off the center cap and you'll see it.

    Is the HEPA filter used all the time?

    My HEPA retrofit was done by Tesla Mobile Service in my garage. Took about 30 mins total. Just schedule it via the Tesla app.

    CT got that sweet early Model 3 orange glass…

    Is this because the windshield is tinted?

    How do I update wall charger firmware?

    Is it connected to your home wifi? If not, there is a way to do offline firmware updates here. https://www.tesla.com/support/charging/wall-connector/troubleshooting

    handle

    There is a thread here, about four years old now, that has a couple options. The best one is a probably a strap around the front passenger seat upright to help get in the back.

    Trading in your Tesla? Be sure to factory reset! I didn't....

    Same with any rental car. The number of addresses left in the nav or people's phones still configured with Carplay is crazy.

    Making the Model Y Battery Cells Easily Replaceable

    The old pack will be recycled or torn apart so the good modules get repurposed. Elon mentioned that the old battery packs can be ground up and recycled essentially becoming high grade ore to build new batteries from.

    Premium connectivity question

    It's tied to the vehicle and not the driver profile. It should be available on her profile as well. https://www.tesla.com/support/connectivity

    Accident with summon

    Can you provide us with more details? Were you using Summon to exit a parking space (just reversing) or trying to move the car forward into a parking space (just forward)? Or the 'come to me' feature of Summon?

    Buyer Beware- Pimp My EV Vegan Seat Covers

    Agree with you. The color you received is completely different. This could have been avoided if they offered sample swatches to people before purchase. Its what a lot of custom fabric and furniture manufacturers do to avoid situations like this.

    Alert for leaving phone (key) in car

    For short trips? No For long trips? Yes

    Rear screen - only 2 headphones? Any work around?

    I think this is a standard for Bluetooth where it can only handle two audio receiving devices (headphones) at once. Like @Watts_Up mentioned is the best work around. Thinking back to a few years ago, Honda had an rear seat infrared based audio headphone system that worked well with as many...

    CyberTruck (CT) waiting room

    I think this is the final production baring any slight design tweaks like they did with the Model Y wipers. I don't see the wiper changing much in appearance on the CT. You might be able to get some sort of wing or cosmetic attachment from third party accessory makers but that's about it.

    Searching owner for test ride

    Might be lost in translation a bit but I think you might need to clarify that you are offering to pay for travel and living expenses to spend a week in Canada with their Cybertruck in exchange for club members to test drive or ride.

    Cyberhammer Order

    Thanks and you were right! :p For those wondering it is about the same head size and handle length of a standard sledgehammer.

    MY 2024/2025 Refresh - Project Juniper?

    I suspect we'll start seeing 'spy' shots of various parts for Juniper like we did with Highland. That'll give us a better idea on how close we are to the refresh.

    Charging On It's Own

    I've seen cases where adding an additional driver to the car causes the default charge limit to go to 80%

    Rear Wing for CT

    It is. Buy it by the pound, grab some slices of white bread, some pickles and maybe raw onions plus a cold beer. 👨‍🍳

    Rear Wing for CT

    Brisket Cybertruck since it's made in Austin. :p

    Rear Wing for CT

    could disrupt the air flow That's why he asked for a wing and not a spoiler! :D

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    It's a trim piece that got bent out of place due to the water. Pushed it back into place.

    Apps-weather and group chats

    No but the idea of a real time weather map and alerts, especially on route, has come up before as a good idea. Tesla has automated actions based on weather for their Powerwall products so it's not a stretch to think they could do something similar for their vehicles. Charging tips, reroute...

    Cybertruck On Display in Japan

    Any thoughts on why Tesla would be displaying a Cybertruck in a country that buys so few Pickup Trucks? It's a halo product.

    FM Radio Having Issues

    FYI...you are in the Model Y forum and not the Model S forum. You might find better info over there.

    Burned Cyber?

    I'm sure if that happened there would be a lot of pictures already. Not saying it didn't but if the CT gets a flat tire it becomes news. :D

    Cybertruck is a scam.

    A SpaceX edition of the Cybertruck would be very cool. And Elon has mentioned in the past about the CT on Mars and speculated that it wouldn't be too hard to pressurize the cabin.

    Lights on the steering wheel buttons stopped working

    They only come on when the headlights are on. There is no bulb to change. Everything is LED.

    Lights on the steering wheel buttons stopped working

    Yep! You can touch Controls > Lights > Steering Wheel Lights. If on, they turn on whenever headlights are on.

    Damn that thing is fast

    So weird to see a brick accelerate like that!!! It has speed angles! :D

    Tesla charging $6,000 to $6,500 to wrap the truck!!! Yikes. Save your money!!

    Agree with you on the various options. You can get a precut DIY for around $1,600. https://tesbros.com/products/diy-full-body-vinyl-wrap-for-cybertruck

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    Have you rented a Tesla from Hertz? I have multiple times and they send a flurry of emails out beforehand on how to unlock it, how to charge it, etc. The point about selling their fleet is meaningless. Tesla should include Premium Connectivity with ALL rental cars...Hertz or others.

    My Truck has been at the Dealership since Saturday

    Tesla does have strict rules for their employees and keeps a lot of them in the dark.

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    Not sure if is part of Premium Connectivity but I cannot understand why Tesla doesn't include it on all rental cars. You want someone, who may be brand new to Tesla and EVs, to have the best experience with a rental and you don't have that when Premium Connectivity is not included. Similar to...

    Destination charging

    As others have said no need to worry about how it was installed or the amps. More worrisome is will it be packed with other owners/renters who leave their car parked in the L2 parking spots and plugged in over night? The last couple times I've stay at Hilton properties with Tesla chargers they...

    Exploring Possibilities: Using Tesla as a Mobile Hotspot for Other Devices

    If you search here on the forums you'll find that others have wondered the same thing. AFAIK there isn't any way to use the gateway as a mobile hotspot for other devices.

    I'm still getting these errors, still on the holiday update and the service center says it'll be fixed in a future update. @Malaromane Post here if your visit yields anything different.

    Autopilot protection

    FSD beta has supported train crossings for over a year now...maybe longer. Stops at rail crossings with lights on and gates down while train passes. Proceeds when everything is clear.
