    Anyone interested in Temp vs energy consumption charts?

    This is my teslamate efficiency report for 9 months. Car is a RWD Y with LFP battery. Everything below 5dec C was on 18inch wheels with studded tires, the over 5deg was on gemini 19" OEM Pirelli all season tires.

    Tesla model Y 16 V Li ion battery problem ( The connector on the low-voltage battery is not secure.Press or slide the latch until it stops.)

    From what I see the battery was not properly re-installed, verify that the cables are properly re-installed.

    Powered cooler for sub trunk. Questions & Suggestions

    If your cooler fits the frunk no problem in using it there, you will be wiring it directly to the low voltage battery, I would add a in-line fuse if I was doing that.

    Model Y 2023 loosing 17% battery when parked for 8-9 hours?

    Do you have cabin protection turned on with AC? If so that would be a major drain on the battery in 100+ temperature.

    Model Y 2023 loosing 17% battery when parked for 8-9 hours?

    Don't try to find a other answer, I changed nothing and it happens every time I go to the cottage no exception when I park in the area that I have absolutely no cell service and a 100 feet or so I do and all is normal and the car sleeps, I have Teslamate graphs to prove it. The only problem I...

    Model Y 2023 loosing 17% battery when parked for 8-9 hours?

    Says me; when I go to my cottage my standard parking spot next to the house does not have cell reception and my Y never sleeps, as soon as I move it several hundred feet in a area that has reception it will then sleep as it should. A other side not is even if the car has WiFI and internet...

    Loud rattle from front suspension and knocking in steering wheel

    So not CV joint, but none the less with that much clunk I would have it towed to the SC and not drive it, something is really loose in there.

    Loud rattle from front suspension and knocking in steering wheel

    I would not drive the car at all like that, I would have it towed to the nearest SC. To me that look's and sounds like a failing front drive CV joint. I could be wrong tho I am only going from what I hear and see on your video. Does it get worst if you speed up?

    Model S plaid wheels on a model Y

    Who much will it cost to get the custom wheels made? That design is very interesting but personally I prefer the more aero looking wheel on a Tesla.

    100A sub Panel single phase no ground.

    Question how far is the sub panel, if it is past 100feet, you need to up the wire size, so from what I see in your installation you will need the help from a professional electrician.

    Please help AC intermittent cool then warm

    I would have a professional AC service center look at the system, chances are your system is filled with 1234yf and not R134a, so introducing R134a WILL contaminate the system. Also if the AC is cycling like you are suggesting it is low on refrigerant and you have a leak, that leak needs to be...

    New Model Y LR RWD vs AWD Differences

    1. Ambient lighting is not mentioned in any model in the configurator, so I would not assume it is included in any Y 2. If I look at the Design your Tesla feature details the RWD has a 7 speaker system not the 13 one. 3. same as the ambient lighting. For differences look at the online...

    Audio system upgrade

    I also find the system in MY decent but it lacks sound stage dept and width are all muddied up so all the high speakers (mid tweeter) need to be replaced with better ones but I am not ready to invest over 1,500$ to do that. Yes I did play with the settings sound is way better after adjusting to...

    Trailer Wiring 4 Pin Connector

    You did not mention the car was a 2024! Hey I am a penny pincher also but this is one area I try to not skimp too much, too many things could go wrong, I would not connect directly to the wires in the car without a interface that isolates the trailer lighting from the car electrical system...

    Got Rear-Ended: Seeking Advice on Repair Options

    I'm insured so I would go to Tesla for that kind of damage, but I am not you. I would start by getting several appraisals and if insured I would ask what my insurance company what they require and recommend. As someone already said this car might be a write-off.

    Strange LTE behaviour

    You are saying that every time the car goes to sleep and then re enter it you need to reset the infotainment system to be able to use the enhanced connectivity options? If this is the case I would open a service request with Tesla, it is not normal. Does it happen with your wife's profile or...

    Spacers needed. 2024 model y with 20” induction wheels.. any suggestions on what to buy and what configuration for front and rear to flush, no poke

    I would measure how much difference I need to get my wheel's flush to my liking and that is what I would buy. But be careful as to not remove too much as you need to have sufficient thread left on the stud to be safe.

    Difference in FSD between Model Y and Model X

    If getting FSD to "drive you" the system will deactivate after several warnings and you will need to drive yourself. FSD needs ALL your attention, you need to touch the steering, you need to be looking at the road (one of the reasons there is a inside camera), if you don't it stops working and...

    Is there an alternative to Modern Spare?

    To center the wheel to the hub you could use a centering ring 64.1mm to 67.1mm, they do exist and would be safer to have if ever you need to use the spare wheel/tire.
