My 2021 Model Y has started shedding steering wheel skin. It's over $900 to replace the wheel at SC.

We know the payment types we have designated in our wallet, have a default, as well as an arbitrary number of back ups. But let's assume you forgot your payment for your default card. You're at the supercharger and the charger is inoperative. So you use, or select should I say, one of your back...

The recent OTA-"Enable Passive Key and remote controls", does what, exactly?

What was cost?

Yesterday was my first day as beta tester, the minor quirks I can live with, I've seen my share of YouTube videos, however, the major problem is the car will not exit the freeway. It brakes fairly hard, but does not turn on the blinkers, nor make the turn, but rather recalculates the route to...

These have 739 mi, I kept the TPMS's for use on my Michelin replacements. All four wheels are like new, no dings or curb rash. I've had them boxed by UPS in four separate boxes, weighing 67 lbs apiece. Price for these is $2K. Shipping according to your location could cost for example, $561 to Ft...

I had some time to kill before a ballgame and brought up my subscription to Amazon Prime Video. All attempts to get the audio to work failed me. Went back in my garage and tried it today and still no sound.

I'm getting a PPF in two weeks on a black 2022 M3P, but I have a 4 mm spot on the hood that the paint robot forgot to spray. What's the best way to go?

No rim damage on any of the four wheels. No TPMS on these. Local pickup Humboldt Co, CA. No meetups, no shipping considered. $2,000 Firm.

Son-in-law drives a M3 and uses an iPhone. He was going to borrow my model Y and we set out to pair his phone. We tried everything to no avail. Even got down to deleting the app. When my daughter did this, there were problems but it eventually worked. So I can’t figure this one out.

Andy Slye tipped this on his YT channel. Too late for my two dings, but it may save yours; set the height at which your tailgate does not touch your garage door, then hold the button till the chime. It'll be restricted to that height in future.

I came upon a CHP while doing 67 mph on a 55 mph highway, "Speed Enforced By Radar" is more than just a pretty sign; he went into Christmas tree driving mode and proceeded to inform me he'd stopped me for my excessive speed. We agreed to the exact figure and he observed I also didn't have a...

I owned a Model 3 until my daughter's car was totaled and she asked whether I'd be willing to sell. I'd previously said the Refresh S looked interesting. I was stoked to get her family into a Tesla, I practically gave it away. Refresh wasn't happening yet, so I picked the Y as it came with a...

My MY order is my second Tesla; first was June 2019 for M3 which was delivered to me as a matter of course, although I'm 300 mi from Rocklin, CA distribution center. For this car, however, I was offered a number of pickup options for the weekend starting Feb 12, extending to Feb 14. Home...

Has it been calculated how high one has to step into the cab?

This was the second time in 20K mi I had to stand on the brakes, this was harder than the first time, apparently, because the sound in the final few feet was akin to a patch of gravel. That was the skid portion, I believe. The part where the deer stopped seemed much longer to me, time takes on...

I was reminded last night of an instance where I was in Grant's Pass and saw Bandon was about 97 miles on the car's nav. It turned out to be much farther. Last night from home I checked Mt Shasta- 97 miles. It's 149 just to get to Redding. Google Maps has it as a 3 hr drive, plus. Eureka is...

2019 SR+ FSD. I've never experienced anomalies in nine months ownership till last week; the TACC cut off several times at freeway speeds, and on the same drives, attempted to turn off at an exit while on Autopilot, the first time which I overrode. Next time it did it, I let it go to see if it...

I purchased my SR+ with FSD, so obviously familiar with its ability to follow in stop-and-go traffic and all that. Can regular Autopilot do that as well? To use as a selling point to a friend.

40.2.1 installed four days ago; today was my first oppo to use the wipers in automatic. I drove about 35 mi and they started up with the first signs of drizzle, which quickly turned to a downpour, and I was at freeway speed by that time. Wipers sped up and were going crazy fast for about 20 mi...

All the stuff you can do with these Model 3's, and making the headlights come on from a distance isn't one of them. I discovered that tonight, walking out of the house I'd eaten dinner at, into the dark driveway (no exterior lights on the house, no streetlights). Looks like my phone flashlight...

I took it out on the freeway after the software update and wow, I can really tell the difference on the freeway on ramp. I briefly hit 88 mph. Teslafi said it was 75 mph. Okay.

Email received Friday. Application was 8/3. This will buy seven more shares of Tesla stock.

I used to be able to park a long body van, now a Model 3 flummoxes me, what with the back up camera, and the car not displaying "P" when it should. It's done it sporadically, but I suppose it's in beta, so.

Would I be able to haul 4 18, or 19" wheels and tires in my car, you think?

Three months using my iPhone 8 with my SR+ connected via Bluetooth. Two hours spent last couple days without the car connecting to the phone. All troubleshooting steps performed, natch. Last desperate move was to Reset All Settings on phone, still no go. I don't even get the number code sent to...

I should've bookmarked that exhaustive spreadsheet on tires and as I'm now rapidly approaching a change of tires, I can't find it.. The Goodyears were at the top of the list and had the best numbers in several categories. I'd appreciate help finding that again, if anyone has it bookmarked. Thanks.

Although I live about 50 mi S of Crescent City, Ca, I'd never had reason to use the SC until yesterday. And discovered what I'd never seen before, a drive-in setup. Brilliant! How often is this seen?

You get on the E-EV2-A plan, think you're set, then get your first bill that's astronomical. You forgot that peak, off-peak, part-peak still applies. Oops. Then you set your charging for 1:00 a.m. Lesson learned hard way, which are always the best lessons

Okay, normally I stay out of the right lane on 4th St, but I had just merged from the right side. Y'all get this much where you are?

I have seen the car park itself once, now it does not display P when I pull up alongside a parked vehicle.

I am presently at the second RV park I have come to to try and get my Nema 14.50 working. The only charge I can get is from a 120. These people talk about 50 A I don’t know an app for me right banana Perhaps my Nemo 1450 is only good up to 30 A and that’s why they are not working anyway looks...

It was necessary to run my battery on my three almost all the way down to reach a supercharger. Then I still had over 200 miles to get back home, during which I started hearing a loud thump coming from the back of the car. It occurred about every 10 minutes or so, far too frequently for my...

I can't beat the computer, but I think my daughter could. She's away at college; how could we manage this?

Previously posted, and after a week's work, still as indelible as ever, this bug splat, acquired during a trip of 100+ temps, defies all manner of solutions, bug tar, ammonia, polishing compound, everything short of a cutting torch, on my black paint finish. Granted, it's only visible under a...

After a 600 mi weekend trip, I washed my car and ended up with one elongated bug splat that won't go away, even with carnauba wax. I'm going to get some bug and tar remover when O'Reilly opens up tomorrow. Certainly makes the case for a wrap; not that I haven't given that some thought, but no...

Last week time constraints prevented the shop from doing my back windows. Last week time constraints prevented the shop from doing my back windows today he finished the job. 35% on both front and back, yet the back appear limousine dark. Who what’s up with that ?

my electrician needs me to get a 14-50 adapter so he'll know how to proceed. does Tesla sell those? Model 3. Too bad they're too cool to give a single effing clue about what to do for your home charging. Maybe we're all assumed to be NASA engineers.

I called and got a good response; they'd FEDEX them immediately. I was speechless, my bud even desperately checked the glove box. Aside from that, the car is flawless, though. Edit; lost 20 miles thru phantom drain, so have to go to supercharger if I'm gonna make that trip today. Additionally...

I got told several times to make a steering wheel movement or words to that effect. Kinda annoying, because AP was working fine. What's up with that?

just went to take the photo a moment ago.

My car arrives tomorrow. On Friday we have a baseball game that is 203 mi distant. For planning purposes, can someone with an SR+ program Mckinleyville, CA to Mt Shasta Supercharger? Redding is midway, but they're apt to be still building the place, and not open yet. Thanks in advance!

Caught this in the Santa Rosa Press Democrat this morning.

I've ordered my car and now that deposit has been made, have decided I'd like to switch to 19" wheels. I emailed that wish to my rep this morning. Is that gonna cause conniptions?

Getting a M3 in about two weeks. Just want to confirm, tell the electrician I want a Nema 14-50? TIA
