Missing the critical expensive pages.

It's on the underside and the car is a lease? I'd sand down the area and forget about it. No one will ever notice that if they can't feel it (or even care really).

That's pretty strange. I would think a 19" wheel in the same width and construction should be stronger and more stable than a 21". I have nothing concrete to base that on other than experience with bicycle wheels which are not the same but still...... BTW, definitely go with the manufacturer...

I know it's not a map, but at least they add the next turn and distance to that turn to the left display area. Still, seeing the map would appreciated. Many revisions ago, they had the ability for an "intermediate" screen app whereby the app would fill the bottom ~1/3 of the screen while the...

From someone who never experienced AP1, what was obstacle avoidance like? Anyone have it react to something sudden and avoid an obstacle? I’m wondering if the current AP state is all the added situational logic and learned behavior that cause the instability.

Also. If you feel like you must have that next two minutes, you can pull it from the dash cam folder where it saves everything about the drive in 1 minute chunks. It will only overwrite the files when you SD card is full. This could lead to hours of recorded footage after the event depending...

Humble suggestion, if you have a weekend cottage 350 miles away, without knowing the temperature and elevation you will encounter on such a drive, it is worth considering a LR 19" and a 240V outlet at the cottage.

No one but the insurance can tell you that. WAY too many variables including age, driving history, location, miles per year, heck, even your credit score. Call Amfam and ask them that exact question.

I assumed you tried the service center? Safelite is the company the Tesla Service Center uses here in Tampa so if they are out of stock, I would think everyone else may be too but it's worth a try. 2016 MS has two variants, to 3/16 and from 4/16. Here's the part number for to 3/16. Maybe...

Gotta do the math…and know the voltage and amps. If it’s 11kw (the fastest most l2 chargers can deliver, that’s ~2.75/11 or 25 cents a kwhr. Not bad if you compare it against a supercharger but not great if you compare to home rates. Say their voltage is 208V or their delivered amps is lower...

Doesn’t the app show that it’s heating the battery with L2 the way it does when you are in a supercharger? Check the app at 19:17 or so and see if it is indeed heating. See the discussion here: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/battery-warming-icon-in-new-app.245549/ I’m in FL so in...

Depends on how your CF piece is designed to fit. Some are complete replacements (more money) where you would remove the wood, and some are sit on top covers (cheaper), where you’ll need the old cover to attach the new one or it will have nothing to sit on top of.

Great review. thank you. For your question: I don't know this for sure, but I suspect you are getting caught in the efficiency calculation. You can calculate the EPA efficiency by dividing kwhr/km. Since the S is "rated " more efficient, the same amount of energy delivered will mean more...

This is a good point if you will sell quickly, and less important if you are keeping it long term since Tesla doesn't use model years for features. I would certainly want a 2024 if I were buying new now. You can check by the VIN, at least in the US. I'm ignorant of how VINs are treated in the...

From the Tesla battery perspective, the consensus is anything Level 2 and below is considered slow charging so no perceptible difference to the main battery degradation. From the efficiency standpoint, 240V is marginally more efficient than 110V. Further, if the battery needs to be heated or...

Connect the lights to a home automation hub. Then for the coming home part, create a geofence automation like shortcuts (iOS) or Tasker (Android) which triggers a POST to your home hub to light the lights when you enter your home geofence. Then set an automation to trigger a post to turn them...

I can’t be sure if this is the issue, but the app reportedly added motion and fitness tracking to improve phone key. https://driveteslacanada.ca/news/tesla-adds-waypoint-support-improves-phone-key-and-hints-at-octa-view-live-cam-in-latest-app-update Maybe this is the issue? I haven’t...

You will get nowhere within Tesla. The people you will escalate to will be lawyers, and they will favor the written legal documentation. Take emotion out of it. It sucks, but you have to stay within the official procedures. Look at the arbitration section here...

Another potential concern. Not only is the MCU consuming energy being powered on while charging (BTW, this is not a problem if you are using sentry mode as sentry is keeping it on anyway), but if it’s cold where you live, the car will warm the battery prior to charging and potentially during...

You paid the crazy 12k and are considering *not* getting what you paid for because of “might-happens” somewhere down the road?

I wouldn't place too much hope on strictly order number. As was shown with the Model 3 and Y, Tesla will send you the vehicle when they have it built, in your spec, and they have enough reservations in your general area to fill a single truck/train car to your location. Luckily, the CT comes...

Sounds like you are getting worked up in a hypothetical and pessimistically think they wouldn’t have owned up. While that is certainly possible… I think there is a good chance they would have. Tesla engineers don’t get comped on big repairs nor do they get commission AFAIK. I don’t really see...

Full Self Driving capability may not be FSD equipped. Marketing BS. It's the "capability" to be equipped. Meaning...give us the 12k and only then you get FSD.

Just 30 days and you have already driven 5k miles? Dang.

I assume you are using the Tesla API to send your commands. These are cloud only AFAIK. The lag you are seeing is “mostly” due to the car going to sleep. One thing you might try is preventing sleep. You should be able to use Sentry mode for this. I don’t think it turns off (and allowing...

Ebay or other used part dealers is your best choice, IMHO. You can also order new: https://epc.tesla.com/en-US/catalogs/32/categories/719/subcategories/27608/systemGroups/53847?part=6005917-00-F

This is asked often. Everyone who bought around the same time is in the same situation. However, that is all paper loss at this time. If you were to sell today, certainly you would take more of a bath. If you were to sell in...say...5 years, the depreciation curve flattens and you take less...

Call them either way. I'm sure they'll say "bring it in". However, before you do, try to take as many under body pictures as you can. They could say this is impact related (which wouldn't be warranty) and you might need something to confirm or deny.

Ah. That has to be available somewhere. I use Teslamate, and for a 2019 M3P and it's 245Wh/mi.

Wh/mi is dependent upon a desired delta. For example, do you want the Wh/mil over the last100 miles, the last trip, lifetime? I'm not an expert on the API, but I don't think it's a single API query, instead it uses the streaming API to retrieve values over small chunks. It's then up to you...

Wall connector on a 60a circuit with no GFCI is the way. And you cannot connect two receptacles or devices together on the same 240 circuit. Therefore your thought of putting one outlet in the garage, and one on the outside with both on the same 50A circuit, while logical, is prohibited by...

After years of owning BMW M cars, I would feel so dirty with Dinan rims on my Tesla. I know they make for other brands (a tiny bit) but dang I associate them with BMW. Still, a great, great, honest, company and they have good looking rims for sure. Appreciate you posting this. They are worth...

Not the same issue but is this when you are going in solo? I find my wife's iPhone has a stronger bluetooth signal (and I often open the door for her) and even though I get to the car first it seems to use her card. Sounds like you have already made sure the cards are linked to the profile...

Take the front wheel off and drop the dropper. It will fit no issues.

Have you verified it doesn’t work when it’s unlocked as well as locked (to make sure it’s not a BT antenna problem)? I haven’t take the switch out personally, but I would think it’s a pretty easy self diagnosis by pulling it out yourself and testing with a multimeter. Tesla out-of-warranty is...

Open a service request ASAP. You have to report these things within a certain timeframe and mileage. Send them the pic and your thoughts but get it time stamped asap.

Honestly, Tesla is just plugging in a computer and replacing whatever it says to replace. Not to discredit them, but I wouldn’t call most of them troubleshooters. I say that as it jives with what you describe…the technician saying they can’t be positive it will fix what’s wrong. They can’t...

Use the streaming app. No ads there if that’s your thing. If you want the extra Spotify offers, it’s gonna cost ya.

This has not been my experience at all. I have a 3/19 build and Tesla Android....located under the center console armrest and in a metal case with fan and set to 5G....has no issues at all connecting to the car wifi. Do you have the TA wifi set to use 5ghz and further disabled the TA BT?

I agree. I know it’s silly, but I like to have the rear model 3 windows down to their lowest setting and then try to set the front windows to the same height. That would be cool to have one touch to that level. I haven’t tested it, but I wonder if the “vent” setting in the app works while...

I see no issues with that tactic (price is what people are wiling to pay) but it sure does show how much margin they have to work with.....

You are right. My mistake. Only the S and X are 150k. Sorry for the confusion. https://www.tesla.com/support/vehicle-warranty

The HV battery is covered under the powertrain warranty (8y or 150k miles). Is it over 150k miles? Just subtract the cost of a battery replacement. Last I saw it was somewhere between 10k and 20k, depending on battery spec. Deduct that from the normal M3 value.

I thought this was funny. Hope it's not a repost.

Swipe left and right on that section (which is probably now showing music controls) to show the music, trip and tire pressure cards (and phone card and/or seat buckle card if active). If there is not thing appearing in the lower left, press the music note icon in the bar at the bottom.

Short trips like your 8.5 are the worst for efficiency. The vehicle uses energy to heat or cool the cabin and the heat or cool the battery. The EPA range is only realized on longer drives with low speeds.

Yes, the rear defrost wires are on the inside of the rear panel. If you remove the tint (bubbling, installation error, new legal regulation, etc), it’s near impossible not to remove without also tearing out those defrost wires.

I’d try disabling the automation and see if it happens again. It’ll remember your home setting and doesn’t necessarily need to be reset every time you arrive home.

Look at it this way, do you want the very real possibility of spending the next two weeks arguing back-and-forth across an simplex application about the legal merits of US law, and likely get nowhere, even if you are in the right, threatening legal action, and getting completely frustrated and...
