I have not set my track mode settings yet - but I “trust” the standard Tesla settings to get me A to B… however when I’m heading into a gnarley situation, I’ll probably set bias to 70 front/30 rear and no regen braking (roll) with stability set to the positive side (to keep me forward) if...

Got the update. Track mode ready. Now I just need snow. Forcast says snow on Tuesday for Tacoma!!

The snow is calling my name… but I need to update first. Can service push the update to me? I’m often last to update as I have a June 2020 delivery (build date was a few months earlier)

I have chains for the MYP (on 19” Gemini’s)… but have yet to use them/need them. But I also just purchased snow socks for the MYP - 19” Gemini wheels/tires just in case. When I’m in a pinch while skiing on WA pass ski areas I’ll prefer to use the socks, but chains are also nice to keep for...

@dennis I’m sure - but I’d love that extra 30-40miles I had before.

My next MYP will have coilovers. I installed the UPP sport springs and I like the 1” drop look, but the ride quality (stock dampers) has a lot of room for improvement.

I have a June 2020 MYP & wondering if/when my battery pack will be one of the first to go too low & I can request a battery warranty.

I’m also interested. Are they incandescent bulbs or LED? I honestly have never looked. But I’d like more light out of the fog lights & ability to aim them?

Man I’m reading all this thinking I should install a new metal skid plate. Too much skiing and other road debris and also 1” lowered. I’m in Tacoma WA… if anyone is local and making new/better ones.

I just installed my factory Tesla rack. It does not touch the glass at all.

Gotcha. The torque value is soo low… it makes me nervous, but on the flip side - I will torque to their values to save my glass roof. Never had any issues so far. Bikes, cargo boxes, lumber, oars, many many items up there. Lots of river boat NRS straps.

The stock Tesla rack has little J hooks that lock into a metal bracket under the glass roof. Next time I re-rack - I’ll snap a photo. I’m pretty sure the rubber feet are on the metal roof rail… so the pressure is applied from the J hook through the rack and then squeezed down onto the metal...

My car has become the everything car… Which is okay - but man I need to look at the headliner. Wheels, tires, lumbers, pressure washers… I’m gonna try isopropyl & then soap/water first before I try lighter fluid.

Long story… I have a MYP. Purchased the UPP 1” drop springs. I installed them. Then I got the “ping-ping” spring sounds from only one of my front UPP springs (on the stock MYP struts). UnPlugged learned of the issue - and sent me new front springs, but I have yet to replace/swap front...

Got it. I’m on the lookout for aftermarket replacement front struts for the MYP.

So these are just replacement strut assemblies? Not a coilover kit correct? Mind sharing the link?

I run 21” Übers in Pirelli’s for summer and then 19” Gemini w (soon to be purchased) Cross Climates . I like the idea of 3 season tires if you run summer and winter setups. Seems to be the best of all worlds if you have two sets of wheels. One set is sticky, but handles the rain etc… the...

@jacie6056 - unsure… but it matches my 21” Überturbine wheel color perfectly.

I just my roof rack all the time. Lumber. Bikes. Cargo boxes… the rack also goes on and off all the time as I’m particular. If you’ve owned roof racks before - there is no difference. The glass roof makes me more cautious - but no issues so far w removal or instal.

@nate704 - my Tacoma local shop made that batch of paint to color match the Übers color. They fixed & painted my curb rash. I asked if I can have the extra and they laughed at me.

And I’ll add these. 21” Überturbine color

Just found this thread… lovin the amber turn signals and the blacked out front headlights from the OP.

Also interested. I’d like to have the amber turn signals but I have the old 2020 3pin connectors. If/when I get new stock (Tesla) taillights w amber turns, they are not plug and play unless there is some (soon to be created) 3pin to 4pin adapter.

I have a set of bare 19” Geminis that need new rubber. These tires are top of my list, I hope I can order through discount tire this summer/fall 2022.

I’ve only hit the belly/battery pack once or twice and I knew it was coming. It wasn’t terrible, just a lil bump which all cars are designed to do. Front bumper can often nudge/wedge into curb stops or tall curbs but it’s not hard to avoid. I’ve always had lowered cars so this is just normal...

MYP dropped 1” on UPP springs, but still on stock tire sizes. When the fronts are spent, I’ll certainly go up to 265 or 275 width for the fronts.

How did miss the boat on this? I need to investigate.

I rarely am out of cell service - and/or supercharger range… but man this thread has my wheels turning.

So when this happens… I want to be included… I have a 2020 June MYP. Someone’s certainly gonna try… install it… then “get/push/beg” Tesla to push the firmware? Michael

I removed the front emblem completely (fishing line & warmish heat gun). Then removed the rear emblem - same method as above - and painted matte black. It looks amazing now. Reapply w 3M double sided tape (emblem tape).

I also have the OEM rack and Yakima Carbonite 16…. Carries mostly skis all winter but can also carry two full sized pieces of luggage (airport sized luggage).

Stock/Staggered Überturbines and I just got new rear tires only… Pirelli P-Zeros in 275/35… I wanted to go wider but Discount Tire didn’t have any available. AND the “new” P-Zeros have a curb rash “lip”!! Compare my pictures of the new P-Zero rear 275/35 w the stock/Tesla P-Zero 255/35…...

@Mattemsmy - I swapped stock springs on the MYP to UPP’s 1” drop springs. Rear is a snap. Fronts are hard if you need to swap springs w a spring compressor… or just take the front strut assembly to a shop if possible and let them do it for you? If you get coilovers… it’s easier as there...

I’m also eyeballing this setup @Candyman2385 - however I’m also 1”ish lower than stock MYP on UPP sport springs. I’ll certainly go wider OR taller… but not convinced I can have both.

Ugh… yes we still wait… patiently?

Is there a question? I’m pretty sure that is the pedestrian warning system

Freedom!! Just give us some freedom. As mentioned above, if I cannot control it - I don’t want it. Snow mode/track mode should be user operated.

@cbritton3 - Nice work! Takes guts to rip into a new car, but I also thinks it’s worth it. Again, this is why I love this community. 💪💪🚗

@hakwuzhere —- more picts pls. Personally - I have the 21” Übers for summer and I picked up a set of 19” Gemini/Apollo wheels/tires for a winter setup. Fool proof and OEM… pull the utility trailer, toss on chains if needed, rip the snow, then swap back to summer wheels/tires for more...

Just get ‘em. You’ll thank yourself later. Fronts required. Rears optional.

We need a snow mode that dramatically reduces regen, and that will satisfy 90% of Tesla users, but what I really want is the full software unlock of the Performance (as in M3Ps track mode) so I can adjust power delivery front and rear to make a “front wheel drive” snow car!

I purchased the Überturbine touch up paint from TSportline a few years ago. Works well. Matches well. I did not do a great job sanding down and filling back in, but the paint certainly looks alright from 10 feet away. Up close, you’ll know it’s been curbed. Next time (and yes, there will...

Front or rear? I have the MPP rear camber arms and I don’t remember those parts.

@Harrington - need some picts, of the bagged 3 and also the Y on 3 springs (which I hope it works) but I’d also be very nervous…. This sounds similar to the VW world swapping Jetta & Golf front ends creating a Jolf and a Getta.

Oof. Same! How to adjust? New contact ? Michael cell & Michael work & Michael pager?

I also manage properties - towing a lil aluminum utility trailer… and the MYP has never failed me. It’s my SwissArmyCar. My “Eleanor” can do everything.

@Canyonero what is your complete set up? Front & Rears? @Mursla No, I have not purchased new tires yet for the stock Übers. I’m currently on stock Gemini w stock continentals. When I purchase new Über tires, I’ll certainly run 265 front w 285 in the rear…. The real question is to stick...

All - I cannot stress enough that tire chains are tire chains. Tires are tires. When Tesla sells you chains - they are fine, but there are probably other chains on the market that fit better, perform better, and probably cheaper than what Tesla sells you on their website. I purchased SCC...

@LTARR - following your status as I have literally the exact same 2020 & June delivery… but I have not had any issues (wishing you good fortune)

When oh when will Tesla release track mode for the MYP? This M3P video explains how track mode could used as a snow mode… but it only applies to the Performance 3 & Y. Performance snow/track mode There are soo many people screaming for a snow mode…
