Those pry devices are too thick and too many of them. Use a small screwdriver like this one. It fits in the crevice and has room to pry. Works well.

Thanks. There's a ton of voice commands. Google for them and you get lots of them that use entire paragraphs to describe each. A wall of text! I like the list I found in this link: List of Tesla voice commands available after 2019.40.50 software update

There's no need to look at the screen to adjust temperature. Voice command: "Set temperature 23" will do it. (I use celsius degrees)

How about measuring the opening? Measure from the part of the left side that sticks out the most to the part on the right side that sticks out the most. Pretty basic thing to do. Your other question about 240V is simple too. A picture or two will reveal. Picture of the panel and a picture...

Electrician questions. Don't get your answers here. No way to know who knows and who is misinformed. Besides, you're going to need an electrician so ask him almost all the questions. He may not know things like 60 Amps is highest you can go or that 80% of that is max, but he knows...

I looked up Dr. Colorchip. Shipping (to Nova Scotia, Canada) was about $35. Makes no sense. I passed on that.

I would not carry a CCS adaptor. Plenty of SC's along the way. I'm not in favour of the tire stuff either - takes up room and tire failure is rare. I like your battery bank plan. I take some cloths and a spray bottle of water and soap to clean the bugs off my white car's front. I haven't...

I'm curious what you drive now and the ability of the parking sensors on that car.

Compare range of 3 vs Y using EPA figures, rather than what people say. I don't think they are "vastly" different.

Should be better out of the wind. Two ebikes shown.

I agree with most of the above comments, but really some are not needed, IMO. My trip - Nova Scotia - Ottawa - Orlando and back was about 7000kms. Preplanning was zero. Got in the car and after a few minutes gave a voice command: "Take me to _____". It was that simple. Sometimes we changed...

This part of Tesla Motors Club is designated for Model Y discussions. Does it make any sense at all to have a thread for MY/M3/New EV owners within it?

A wonderful story and pictures are beautiful. The ONE thing I think people should understand is that NO planning is required for these trips. Yes, we all consider where we are going to stop overnight and many will plan where to stop for charging. But you don't need to plan your charging...

I live two hours from nearest service. I ordered the opener with my Tesla app and a Tesla rep installed it - while parked in my garage.

Very unhappy with user interface and lack of available instructions. Your shouldn't need 4 or 5 tries to change your starting charge level, for example. Also downright WRONG info. Examples: 1 Routed me to a ferry that didn't exist. 2. on a route from point A to B to C to D, It routed me A to...

TMI

Just took a trip from Ottawa Ontario, Canada, to Orlando Florida. Trip planning? None. Got in the car, pressed the right hand scroll wheel and said "take me to (resort name). Passed by 2 or 3 Superchargers for every one I used. Car even changed charging locations a few times on its own...

If room is an issue, choose inflatable mattresses. I use 2 singles left over from camping days, but there are several on the market that are sized to fit the 3 and Y, some even with pillows.

The reason Model Y is (or is about to be) the most popular car in the world must be related to the extra room and still holding the economy just a bit more than the smaller Model 3. You want more room? Model Y.

Wish I knew what a 6MT car was. Why so many made-up acronyms?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. (I'd choose the Y). What's inside makes a world of difference. I'd choose the company with 15 years of experience.

Send them your pictures. They'll say one of two things - It fine, or bring it in.

Quite a comprehensive answer from canoe! Good thorough advice. One thing that stood out for me in skool's post: "...reduce the amps to 48 or 46..." There is no way the amps should be more than 48. (60 Amp circuit and breaker. Tesla Wall charger will use 80% which equals 48 Amps.) How many...

You didn't charge at a SC and you didn't charge at home. So by default you charged at "other". It doesn't matter if it's at work or at a hotel or shopping center, they still total it as "other".

I've booked a Model 3 rental starting in Frankfurt, Germany with a company called UFODrive. You don't see an agent at the start or end of your rental. Charging is included. You find the car with their app (not the Tesla app). Your phone is your key. They have rental locations in Germany (3)...

Weigh your ebikes AFTER you remove the batteries. You may be within limits then. Seems to be a lot of people don't understand the limits like you do.

A small flat tipped screwdriver is ideal. Mine is about 4 inches long, fits in a shirt pocket (describing size, not where I store it.) It stays in my center console.

Is there a way to display these so the title can be read easily? When I click to see the title, it downloads the whole thing. I just want to browse the titles to see if anything applies to me.

Amir took your car home for a day, but don't worry he can't do that again. :)

I'd like a quick way to engage the front camera when parking. Proximity sensors are still good (on my car at least) but sometimes you want to see up front, such as when a low object might be there.

Yes I would and did. E class Mercedes at the time and the other car a huge Toyota SUV. Responsible and careful drivers all times and he had no issues. YMMV (guess it did!)

Good advice from ATPMSD above. I think you could skip step 3, as long as the charge level shown on your car's screen is higher than the present charge, it should start charging.

The icon may only be visible when you are within range of your garage.

I'm enjoying my 2021 MY that still tells me how far I am from objects in front when I park (in my garage or elsewhere). It reacts to changes, like when someone puts an object at the front of the garage. The tennis ball and parking mats won't do that. I predict that software advances in the...

Or USA.

The title of your post should say SOMETHING about the issue.

I'm on 36.6. Steering wheel heat turned on via my iPhone app.

I thought the dual motor version was designed to allow one motor to continue to power the car when the other one failed.

They always fail "mid flight". Rarely fail when not in use. :)

I used PMC tire last fall. Good selection of tire brands and sizes. Good selection of rims. They also sold me Tesla tire pressure sensors and mounted and balanced the tires. They will ship to your home or to your tire shop for mounting. Recommended. They are in Quebec, so shipping should be...

Plugging and unplugging your dryer and your car cable will get old after a time. Consider the convenience of a Tesla Wall charger. It can be hooked up to a 60 Amp breaker switch and provide 47 or 48 Amps at 240V. The convenience of this setup is a very good thing. Yes, it costs about $700...

I'm liking mine.

One button solution: Press right hand steering wheel button and say: "Defrost front window." Later, say "Set climate to automatic". This solution lets you defrost without taking your eyes off the road.

This is not an "Enlightening Review". Some reviews are credible and others are to be avoided. I put this one in the "Don't Bother" category. Someone who says "Only Tesla can fix the tire" and "This car is too fast" isn't someone I'd look to for enlightenment.

Great. You could look at the phone when you should be looking at the road and ....

Maybe risk of carbon monoxide poisoning is a factor in the no camping in car rules.

Good suggestion. I've bought the THULE EASYFOLD XT. It has a 45 lb weight. Removing batteries gives me about 6 or 7 pounds advantage.

So using a bike rack, the proximity sensors alert. I understand I can select trailer mode but it doesn't work without a trailer plugged in. Is that correct? If so, I was thinking of installing a trailer light kit on the bike rack and plug that in for use with trailer mode. That would silence...

Glovebox is best opened with a voice command.
