My rear spoiler is coming unglued at the edge. Should I try to fix it myself or just get Tesla Service fix it.

I think it was from this vendor: Parts for TESLA Car Decals /Vinyl Sticker / Buy 1 GET 1 FREE. Free Shipping | eBay

I did this in 3 layers. (1) black vinyl to black the chrome. (2) Dark Smoke tint film (3) Covered the entire light with clear PPF to prevent potential peeling and lessening the visibility of the edges of the film.

Let me amend my quote. The only thing truly worth the money would be paint correction. This should be including the pricing by a detailer for ceramic coating. Paint correction even in a new car and especially with black paint is amazing.

That looks really really nice. I was close to going this route however I decided to go for 20mm spacers instead. These damn wheels already are exposed to curbs and lowering them would only make my wheel repair bill triple.

Every car shop I've about this have advised against doing this. They all state the seal does not last and water eventually gets in and these lights are expensive. I ended up using a dark tint on the outside of the lights. When I wrapped the entire light it looked really cool (sorry I do not...

Alot of marketing hype. You can think of ceramic coatings as a longer lasting wax that your dad used on his Oldsmobile. After going through the whole gamut of PPF and ceramic coatings, I now simply wash my car either manual or automated car wash and then spray on an instant ceramic wash spray...

Interesting and informative thread. I am assuming a gas powered vehicle will also have negligible hit on mileage with weight vs wind resistance.

By reset, I mean to power it off then turn it back on again. Once in a while it does not charge and once I power cycle it back on it works again. Not sure the logic of this, hopefully they will have a software upgrade to fix this.

Reset your phone by powering off then on again

I have the iphone 12 pro. Once I reset it, it recharges on all of my wireless chargers.

Figured it out- you have to reset the iphone by restarting it. Now it wirelessly charges on all of my previous chargers. Wasted money on that new charger I bought on Amazon. If anyone wants it let me know.

There are no multiport USB C hubs that output power that I have found

Got my new charging plate, however it has USB A to USB c cables. Since the Model Y has 2 USB C inputs, I have to now order a USB C to USB C cable. Here is the issue, the Tesla charging plate has one power cable that powers both sides of the charging plate. The new plate has two separate cords...

I agree we live in the real world. I signed up for an unlimited car wash plan. Yes you will still get fine swirls in the paint, they do use harsh chemicals, and make sure any add on body parts are secured or they will fall off. All these things I can live with, my only grip is with the 21"...

12 pro does not work

I am assuming that response is due to the fact he is not aware you would have to remove the built in charger plate and replace it with this one.

Just oredered one of these. Hopefully it will fit and work...

Yes, in the beginning I did notice a lot more glare. However I don't notice it as much now, probably got used to it.

Was having problems with a large blind spot area with the Model Y. Installed these rearview side mirrors by Suma Performance. What a difference.

Forgot the interior

I modified mud flaps for the Model 3. Only work for the front the rear ones have no chance of fitting. Fortunately only the fronts really matter.

I got this from RPM tesla. Its for the Model 3 and is about an inch too short for the Y. I wrapped the unexposed ends with black to hit the discrepancy. I used silver Tesla decals too overly the indented Tesla logo. Model 3 Aluminum Tailgate Applique - Only $59 with 20% Off

I thought I would share pictures of my new Lil Tesla Y

I vote for red.

i'm not sure about that, I've in front of a few cars with a green light and it certainly looked like it was going to slow down or stop. Anyways I still applaud Tesla in pushing the envelope further.

I've been playing around with the updated Autopilot feature. Maybe its just me but I thought green light means go. However the car stops at green lights unless you intervene as the warning states.

Very fixable. Find an alloy wheel repair shop. They can easily make it look better than new when finished.

Your frunk must be very easy close. When I adjusted the plastic liner inside the frunk in order to close the hood easier there was a nice gap at the hood bumper junction. Eventhough the hood did close with one finger, I realized this would result in a significant amount of water getting into...

Your best bang for the buck would be to PPF just the front bumper area since you will get visible rock damage over time. Whether you have PPF or not, you will still see the areas impacted by rocks and debris. The only difference is hopefully the paint is protected by the PPF. Under normal...

-Phantom braking suuucks. -On the other hand there are quite a few videos on YouTube that demonstrate the autobraking feature saving some accidents in which the driver would not have anticipated. So if this would apply to "you", you would not complain. -I have driven numerous cars in the past...

Why? I would expect every new car model with new hardware to improve on things.

Agree Model Y braking more agressive (better) than the X. However, I feel the Autopilot on the X is better than the Y. I expected the Y to be way better than our 3 yr old X.

This car has no fuse box. It is like no other car I have ever worked on. From the forums I could not find a reliable place to tap into on the Model Y. Also I did want to take chance and tap into any wire without knowing the implications. Any other car the worst thing that could happen is to...

When I first clicked onto it, I thought this was the dumbest thing. I ended up ordering it. It exactly matches my Y. I'll use it as a shop rolling bench when I work on my cars.

Actually I was impressed with Tesla's blown tire options: -1. Have the car towed to Tesla, -2. come pick up a spare wheel/tire and then drive your car to Tesla (avoid towing charges), -3. have them come to you and put on a new tire on the spot. My Porsche dealer only offers to get it towed...

OP forgot to charge his tires. He probably did not know he had to do this- his fault.

Nothing you can do make the frunk close easier. The only way it works smoothly is to remove the plastic surrounds internally, then it works like a charm. However if you do that you risk getting water inside. I just make sure no one else uses the frunk except me.

A couple of years ago I put some of those curb feelers on my wife's car to maybe help decrease her curb rash on the wheels since I was getting tired of constantly getting them repaired. It was surprising how many people had no idea what these were and would always point out we had something...

The power is activated when the car awakes whether obviously driving , sentry mode, remote access. When the car sleeps the power shuts off.

I could not find a reliable 12V source. The ones online for the M3 don't exist for the Y. I initially powered my radar detector/laser shifters directly from the battery. Battery went dead in 2 weeks- not sure if this was the cause. I then hard wired it to the cigarette lighter wire in the...

I wonder if Tesla will share the internal camera recording. Would love to see the look on the passengers when this happened.

It is the drivers fault- they did not have the latest software update installed. This update I'm sure had a patch to fix this defect.

Good stuff. I have a red car, so very dificult for me to see any braking on the main screen (I don't think it is accurate even it does show). I will will try tonight with the back up camera. It would be nice if Tesla could light up the brake light on the car icon on the main screen. It would...

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere. Does the brake light come on every time the regen. braking is engaged? sometime/all of the time/none?

Don't drool, this is waaay better than a Macan or GLE. The only advantage those two have is noise.

Disappointed, was hoping the stock would spike up.

Thanks Shawn, I'll keep that in mind if I travel off the beaten path. Tesla service can by and replaced the tire on the spot. Nicely done.
