New house is being built. They only had one option for an EV pre-wire. It's 100 amp service to a 4 gang box. I'm planning to install a wall connector as soon as the house is done and I move in. My builder doesn't want to install anything user supplied, I guess they're worried about liability...

I've had a NEMA 14-50 installed by what I thought to be a licensed electrician on a very old house (built in the 1960s) and where I'm renting (built 3 years ago) I asked the landlord to split the cost to install a 14-50 and both times the panel was 200 amps. The old house was electric heat (that...

Um… Is this what they look like in your Model Y?

So I have a 2022 Model Y Performance Red/White that I love. I upgraded from a 2020 Tesla Model Y Long Range. Currently mine is in a collision shop being repaired and I've been renting a Y from Hertz the last couple months. My vehicle is still our of commission and I had to do another rental but...

Ok, realistic I think I’m pretty dang far away from being totaled, but I love that everyone rushes to that conclusion. 2022 Model Y Performance - Aug ‘22 ~9,400 miles Car pulled out from a parking lot in front of me, I jumped on the brakes but wasn’t able to stop in time. I was just...

This is my second go around with @ALSETAuto and I’m just as happy the second time as I was the first! First time was a 2020 Blue Model Y where I did tint and full body gloss paint protection film. Had that for almost two years and everything held up beautifully well and I just adored the car...

Ordered my Model Y Performance at the very end of July on a complete lark that I would get it in time to hit the height of the used car market with my trade in. Tesla estimated ~Oct 17th to Dec 17th or something even though the web site was showing August to September time frame. Fast forward...

Just ordered HomeLink and realized I don't really know how involved the install is. I have full paint protection film (stealth 😈 ) set up for Oct 21st time frame and started to get thinking about if HomeLink requires front bumper to be removed or something insane like that. I probably would want...

First off, I love their cars, this is my 3rd (Model 3 SR+, upgraded to Model Y LR, upgraded to Model Y Performance) But they are HORRIBLE at doing their job. Somewhere in the buying process of the Y Performance there was an option to get new plates or transfer my old plates. I figured I would...

Data point for everyone wondering…

If yes… where was it?

Well my traded in Model Y popped up finally with Tesla for sale. $78,700 for VIN 59377 with 10,019 miles on it. A brand new one is $79,990 before destination charge so they discounted it $1,290 compared to new 😄 They gave me $72,200 which I think was a fantastic deal... Tesla will make $6,500...

I've always been hesitant to get HomeLink added because I've heard of some stories that it isn't always perfectly accurate with GPS on opening/closing the door and that a couple people have had their cars damaged by the door closing when it shouldn't... Can HomeLink be used in a completely...

Could this already be the tax credit slowing demand for Tesla? First time outside of end of quarter that I’ve seen inventory Model Y available!

I know there is a lot of discussion about tint but I’m hoping this new post will be allowed to live for awhile because I have a very specific question. Does anyone have any experience with a 2022 Model Y Performance (the more recently built the better) and Xpel XR Plus window tint? I’m trying...

I've been matched to a VIN but need to push Tesla to get a couple things done quickly before my delivery date (tomorrow) or push my date out a day or two more while I finish up financing. Some of them are Washington state specific questions (like how tax is calculated on a trade in when you...

So I’m thinking it must be insane for the 3/Y to have that same “high end console quality” processing power as the S/X… but then again it wouldn’t seem smart to have two different parts when it comes to custom chips… Anyone know if the AMD chips are common across the Tesla lineup? Part numbers...

Thinking about trading my 2020 LR Y for a 2022 Y Performance and have some questions for people that recently took delivery, like May, June, July time frame…. Could you also add the approximate VIN range you are I know anything can change at any moment, but just trying to get a feel of what the...

So I had a flat tire on Saturday. Used the app to request roadside and they got roadside dispatched, the people texting me (Tesla employee, roadside employee?) asked if I wanted to schedule mobile service and they could get me in Monday 1-5pm (today). I said absolutely since I’m used to mobile...

Hey, I kind of normally know what to do with a flat tire, but I'm out of town (in Seattle) for medical reasons and have a completely flat tire (nail in it). How exactly do I go about getting a loaner wheel from Tesla? Do I just call Tesla road side assistance? Do I have to call a Tesla store...

I’m on 2022.12.3.20 (FSD Beta 10.12.2) and could have SWORN that Tesla used to have independent subwoofer equalizer settings…. But now I don’t see it… was it removed sometime?

I feel like a right or left click of the left scroll wheel used to advance the radio station up or down. Now it appears to just advance through my favorite preset radio stations. Is there a way or setting somewhere to have it advance through all the stations? Was this behavior changed in an...

I’m having to be away from home for about 4 months with my mother to allow her to go through some specialized treatments for leukemia. Often this requires four to five hours at a time at the Seattle Cancer Care Alliance center, which mentions in its promo material that it has an EV charger in...

Curious if Tesla adds any trade in value for things like FSD or acceleration boost. I know those can be added/removed by Tesla with a flip of a software switch, but I'm curious if they will factor those into the trade value at all. I have a 2020 Blue/White Model Y with FSD purchased via the app...

I’ve had my Model Y for about 16 months and just about 6,500 miles. My HVAC has always made a high pitched sound that comes and goes at low fan speeds, but now it’s really noticeable. It also seems to be far more noticeable in cold weather, but that might be also that I tend to precondition more...

So I did my time and earned a 99 safety score and was shocked that today over the cellular network 2021.36.8.5 (FSD Beta 10.4) was pushed to my vehicle. I have the settings for sentry live view and for expanded FSD visuals but I can’t seem to activate FSD. When I’m I home in my drive way I’ll...

Not great in the sense that Tesla just totally blew me off. No call, no text, no message in the app, just didn’t show up. I left work early and did yard work from 12:30 till 5:30 and no one ever showed up. The service shows in the history tab now in the app… Anyone else have them blow you off...

Making a trip to Los Angeles (mainly Disneyland and Universal Studios) and need to rent a car to get back and forth between the two a couple times. My go-to had been Silvercar because I always want a decently powerful car for freeway merging/driving and I wanted to ensure I got a vehicle with...

So I screwed up the black trim on my Model Y using a touchless carwash (ya, I've heard it all, I was lazy, I had a moment of weakness, lets just help me fix it now, lol) I submitted a request to Tesla service and they wrote a quote for... MY Upper Bright Trim Cap LH (1495730-00-AA) and MY...

My car is dirty, it’s crazy hot out right now, I don’t want to deal with washing it today and didn’t last week it… laziness is winning and I’m thinking of hitting an automatic touchless wash. In addition I have no winter solution that I like (I’m not a fan of “waterless” in the garage when it’s...

Seen a bit of luck with these posts but mainly in SoCal and East coast. Anyone in the Pacific Northwest looking (or willing) to trade their 20” Inductions for my 19” Gemini’s? My car has 2800 miles on it but a winter set of Gemini’s were on it from Jan - April and I’ve had the car since start...

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 So.... just a little fun and curious post. It's ~96F out today in wonderful eastern washington state and I glanced at my Model Y to see how hot it was inside.... 147 F! I don't think I've seen it that hot before and that got me wondering what might come next week when it's...

Just a little fun poll to see what we all think. Will V11 (in general, not just Model S specific features) be shown off tonight or talked about? Will V11 be released to all cars (not just new S) tonight? Will V11 be said to be releasing "soon" (~1 week to 1 month from now Elon time) I kind...

Anywhere to rent a Tesla Model 3 or Y in the LA area that is NOT a Turo type deal? I would rather go via a big known rental company instead of some peer to peer service. I'm sure those are fine, but I'll be doing a week long rental in late October and just don't want to deal with meeting someone...

Specifically wondering if ScanMyTesla can log motor power data over a fairly long period, like two to three hours. I know services like Teslafi can log wh/mi over a drive, but it doesn't break it down to every minute or ten minutes, etc. I'm trying to assemble a project to do a deep dive into...

It seems like Viv just sort of popped up on the Tesla EV scene in the last six months or so and somehow got Elon to follow her (he only follows about 100 people) and has a really decent track record getting replies from him! Is she a youtuber or "influencer" or anything? I know Musk tends to...

Finally swapped to my winter wheels (it’s been cold and I’ve been lazy) and noticed that the TPMS (direct from Tesla) appear to all read about 3psi low. I adjusted all tires to 45psi yet the car showed between 41 and 42psi (some increased to 42 literally after about a minute of driving, I can’t...

Curious if the Model Y would be able to tow the A2124... Any Model Y owners with a Safari Condo trailer?

Well something had to go wrong on this transition from a Model 3 to a Model Y... I sold my Model 3 and was about a week without a VIN and my insurance was coming due. I wanted to keep the continuous coverage discount so I contacted Progressive and told them my car was sold but could I still...

Has anyone talked to Tesla to see how much Gemini wheels are direct from Tesla. Not a wheel and tire package, but actually just the wheels direct from their parts department. I know last year I was able to order just wheels, covers, and TPMS direct from Tesla for a Model 3 so I could build my...

So I've got a Model Y on order but no VIN yet... apparently blue cars are running behind. Anyway, I sold my Model 3 a few days ago and finally felt ok removing it from my account since funds cleared and everything. I totally forgot to cancel premium connectivity first though.... I don't see...

Ordered at the start of the month and everyone thought I should be able to get the car before September was out.... but I picked Blue and it seems like Blue might have screwed me over. I'm still waiting to have a VIN assigned and my advisor (Portland) just said that most the people still waiting...

So I think it’s going to come down to me either being really lucky, or just getting screwed over, but I thought I would ask for any feedback just in case someone has experienced something different. I have a Model Y on order (since 9/4) to be delivered to the Portland, OR area. Still no VIN...

So I’m getting my car ready for Vroom to pickup tomorrow and I remember someone mentioned to delete all my personal settings from the car... I went to “Service” and then “factory reset”. It rebooted the computer and seemed to reset everything and remove my profile and WiFi network and stuff...

Normally I like bright silver wheels to add a bit of contrast with the darker colors of a car... but the space gray looks awesome with the wheel on it's own... curious if anyone has it on the blue Tesla and wonder if the wheel gets a little lost in the darker colors or still pops from enough of...

Has anyone had experience with CarMax when they’re not local? The CarMax near me is 150 mile drive. I spoke with them on the phone asking if they could give a ballpark number to see if it was worth my time driving up there. Of course they can’t, but they said they work with Edmunds and I could...

I’ve seen a bunch of YouTube videos of Tesla’s with stealth or matte PPF on them, but almost all are with Xpel Stealth film. Does anyone know of some YouTube videos of a Tesla (preferably white paint) with 3M matte film? Or do any of you guys have it? My installer deals with 3M film, which I’m...

$37,500 — 2019 Model 3 SR+ with 7,494 miles -Deep Blue Metallic -White Interior -Standard Autopilot -Front AND rear heated seats -18” Aero wheels -AP 3.0 hardware -Full front Xpel PPF (front bumper, full hood, headlights, mirrors, fenders all the way back to the start of the front doors...

I assume Vroom allows you to sell a car to them that isn't fully paid off yet and they just work with your bank and cut you a check for the remaining amount.... but they don't clearly spell that out on their site (I'm hesitant to accept the offer and see what the next steps are without fully...
