    Green Light Detection - Too Fast!

    Yep...just a quick second to let us clear the intersection and start moving would be nice. I don't need a ding that tells me the light is instantly green...there is no value in that. What I would find value in is a "hey dude pay attention, you have green light and you're not going anywhere"...

    Question for those in sunny/warmer climates! (glass roof)

    Everyone, I truly appreciate your wonderful feedback and thoughts! What a great group of people here! I hope to return the favor in the future. Based on all the feedback above, and my State's climate...I think I'm going to save a few bucks and not tint the roof. Any warmth that enters the cabin...

    Question for those in sunny/warmer climates! (glass roof)

    Hi guys, For those of you without tinted windows, and who live in sunny climates, do you feel a lot of heat (from the sun) coming in over your head from the glass roof? I am tinting my side and rear windows next week with a 40-50% heat-rejecting ceramic tint, and the gentleman is asking if I...

    Green Light Detection - Too Fast!

    Haha, maybe I need more coffee! In all seriousness it's still new to me, so maybe I'm just pokey. I would like the option of setting up a time delay of 1-2 seconds. That way it's only there in case I'm not paying attention.

    Green Light Detection - Too Fast!

    Happy Monday, guys! Has anyone else been using the "green light detection" beta feature? I like it, but it audibly "dings" far too quickly - almost instantly when the lights turn green. Come on Tesla, give us a second to two at least, haha. In all seriousness, what's the best way to quickly...

    Me too! This is my second Tezzla...no I'm not a rookie, but thought it was odd. PS- had a Model X. It was fun, but this thing is zippy. I'm in love!

    Almost sounded like an electronic hum. Until I went back out and the hvac was running. I think it may have shut off! I'll keep you guys posted.

    Stumper! Help needed!

    Hey guys, I have a weird one happening! I have a new (2019). Before last night I didn't notice this issue... Around 7 last night I prewarmed the cabin so I could clean it etc. After I was done I noticed a light humming noise coming from the center of the frunk, at about the windshield...

    A "different" wind noise question!

    I'm teasing about the upgrade wind noise package...bad humor! Gosh, I hope a 50k plus car I wouldn't have to drive down the road with tape on the windows, haha.

    A "different" wind noise question!

    Hey guys, I just bought a late model 2019 and it has the upgraded wind noise package. To avoid wasting your time with "another wind noise" question, I already ordered a door seal kit and one of those giant rubber bands that go around the front glass panel. Despite what I ordered above, it...

    Alternative "keys"? (Besides Phone As Key)

    Thanks for the responses, guys!! So far I've just put a card key behind my cellphone case (which is clear so get to show off my key all day). I have my cell with my 95% of the time, but how cool would that be if it was integrated with my Garmin or Samsung watch. A guy can dream...haha.

    Alternative "keys"? (Besides Phone As Key)

    Hi Guys, I found a "key ring" (wearable ring) that says it can be used as a Model 3 key... Not sure if this is true or not? However, this gets me thinking. Can you program any RFID item as a key? I even found RFID stickers. Might be interesting to put a sticker on your phone if that were...

    2021 Model 3 and differences from 2020

    So the hopes and dreams of many in Northern climate customers are crushed? No heated steering wheel? Confirmed?
  24. G

    Old more Range or New Refresh?

    If you are buying, you can always add FSD later. It's a novelty...don't get too caught up in the hype. Autopilot is plenty for 90% of the time you'd need it.

    POLL: Best Resale? White/White VS. White/Black

    Hi guys, I'm on the fence on how to order my Model 3 (love both equally, ugh)! I had white in my Model X and enjoyed it 100%, but is a white on white Model 3 too "boy racer"? Black too hot in the summer with no cooled seats? Most importantly any thoughts on which color combo (white/back...

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    YES, but your statement should read like this since comfort and drive experience has zero to do with this suggestion to Tesla: "I'd like to see a firmware update with settings to hold the battery above regen limiting temps when plugged in or at all times available for folks who are taking a...

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    I've been using an app to start heating my cabin for years now...before Tesla, that's nothing new. What I'm talking about is a button to FULLY prepare the battery for your adventure. Preheating from the APP will only allow the battery to prewarm to 10C, which will still leave you will half of...

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    You're correct, but I don't like playing these silly games to preheat the battery. You have to charge your battery until a certain time to only a certain level, then strategically start-up charging again before you depart (again at a strategic time). But if you leave at different times each...

    Nomad - disregard...I thought you were comparing to model 3.

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    Would I still buy again...yup...I'd just go long-range and not worry about it again.
  42. G

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    During cold city driving, when the car has only been prewarmed unplugged (in garage). Honestly, I would love for someone to say your car needs service and something is incredibly wrong, but I'm feeling that's not the case. A standard range Tesla simply sucks in the winter. Period.

    Tesla Wash - Does it Matter?

    You'll love it, but here a tip...if you're spraying it on the front end, make sure you can fully wipe it off or rinse off. I sprayed the cleaner on, let it sit for about 45 seconds and gently wiped it off with a microfiber, then sprayed with a little quick detailer (spray wax) to make sure it...

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    Thank you all for the replies, it's comical that someone would actually consider purchasing 100k vehicle and would leave the heat off for 20 minutes in a Minnesota winter. That is absolute ludacris (pun intended). I love my Model X, but definitely didn't expect over a 50% hit on the battery...

    Early lease "trade/swap"?

    Very interesting...I'm guessing the Model 3's and Y's will sell good enough to where they won't need to take back leases early.

    Early lease "trade/swap"?

    US Bank? So all leases are no through Tesla finance hu?
  47. G

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    Ok, perhaps a really silly question then...to preheat the battery, my best option is to "pre warm" the cabin climate for 20 or 30 minutes? I prewarmed the cabin this morning in my heated garage (40 degrees for about 30 min) then drove to the airport for 25-30 minutes in 20 degrees and I still...
  48. G

    Winter Shock : 800kWh?

    Haha yeah, I'm not too worried about the range at all because it's only been short trips, but I was getting a little nervous about it in case I need to do a longer trip. I only have a standard range model. :( Also, I was not navigating to a supercharger....

    I will try that as a test too! Thank you for the feedback. If I'm still seeing crazy high numbers after the tests you guys suggest, I will call service.
