    Model Y - MATRIX LED HEADLIGHTS?

    I have a Model Y long range delivered September 22, built in China for the UK, VIN C402... Just realised it has matrix headlights (checked that it shows "Tesla" during the light show!) but it doesn't appear to do individual pixel dimming when the headlights are on. Does anyone know if this is...

    USB c ports cannot be used for media

    Recently took delivery of my MYLR (in the UK) after having had a M3P for 3 years. Shortly after delivery I plugged in my music USB drive (which has dual USB A and USB C connectors) into one of the front USB C drives, but it wasn't recognised. If I removed the Tesla dashcam drive from the...

    Ecall icon in display

    I have just taken delivery of my new model Y, following 3 years with a model 3. There is an ecall icon in the model Y permanently at the top of the display, but no ecall button above the interior mirror. when I press the ecall icon it takes me to the safety page to call SOS if needed. Is this...

    Vendor The solution to Tesla Road Noise and Dust- Door seal

    Isn't the easiest way to test the efficiency of door seals simply to buy some black (or white) waterproof electricians insulating tape ($2 a roll) and just tape over all the shut lines and the edges of the panoramic roof before going out for a test drive? Get a friend to tape the drivers door...

    How noticeable is the acceleration boost from a dual motor long range to a performance Model 3?

    yes, and also on the vehicle info page in the display

    MASTER THREAD: Rear view camera image goes black [2019-2020]

    I had the same problem today with my backup camera showing a black screen. Tried a warm reboot but no difference. Didnt have time for a hard reboot. I then left the car in a car park and on returning a few hours later and starting up, the backup screen was back to normal. Is this the Tesla...

    “More Valuable” Stealth Performance Model 3 Unicorn

    Was advised that the UK have a number of P3- in stock, at the same price as the LR AWD. No more available once the current stock is sold

    “More Valuable” Stealth Performance Model 3 Unicorn

    It was available on the UK configurator in June this year and then subsequently withdrawn. I believe that Tesla UK might have some stock P3- cars, but I don't think they are otherwise available to order. Check with a showroom

    “More Valuable” Stealth Performance Model 3 Unicorn

    In terms of tyres, my P3- (without the performance upgrade pack) has Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tyres (not the Pilot Sport 4S which comes with the Performance Upgrade pack). This may be only a UK thing, but my Pilot Sport 4 tyres on 18" aero wheels are rated 98Y, which means good for up to 186mph.

    “More Valuable” Stealth Performance Model 3 Unicorn

    Looks like you might have it though! Maybe follow up with Tesla It's B. I believe all AWD model 3 cars have a B, whether long range or performance

    “More Valuable” Stealth Performance Model 3 Unicorn

    Mine was delivered the same as yours. What you need is to call Tesla and get them to install the performance software in your car. This can be done over the air.

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    I'm really puzzled by all this discussion on whether P3- has a top speed of 145mph or 162mph. I have a P3- and don't know what my top speed is 145 or 162) and really don't care. I want the acceleration simply because I know I can beat the pants off anything on the road if I wanted to. It's...

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    I am surprised that the difference between AWD and P is just 10kw. I would have thought you needed more than this to get the 0-60 time down from 4.4 to 3.2 seconds. Same argument applies to the Wikipedia page listed power outputs.

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    So far as I am aware, the P3- version has never been officially tested. I think we are saying the same thing, that AWD and P- (both with 18" aeros) have the same range. It's the 20" wheels on the P+ that reduce the range

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    The wikipedia page for the Model 3 lists the rear motor output for everything except the LR AWD at 211kW (282HP). The LR AWD rear motor is rated at 188kW (252 HP). These figures are sourced from official DoE/EPA figures, who in turn would have been given them by Tesla. The front motors are all...

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    Unless you drive both a P and a LR on the same protocol with the same wheels, it is impossible to speculate. There are so many variables that will impact range. Driving habits, ascent/descent, temperature, use of HVAC etc. WLTP range for the LR is about 6% better than the P3 (348 miles against...

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    Just to add my 2 cents to the various issues, and noting that I have a P3- (very happy with it too!) 1 I believe the range difference between P3 and LR AWD is entirely due to the different wheels (ie 20" compared with 18" aeros). Absent the 20" wheels from the P3, essentially giving you the...

    M3P- . What is it, how to order it, etc.

    Of course. Have tried to locate it from the ground but cannot. I suspect it will need to wait until the car is on a ramp, unless there is an easier way. I have seen posts suggesting I can take a photo from the left wheel arch, but couldn't get anything from that. Angle of camera?

    M3P- . What is it, how to order it, etc.

    Very happy to say that the performance software was uploaded to my M3P- today and all is enabled, including track mode. Thanks to all for your input. Just want to reiterate that the tyres are Michelin Pilot Sport 4 (not 4S). I wasn’t aware that M3P- had these. I was expecting the MXM4 tyres...

    M3P- . What is it, how to order it, etc.

    18” aero wheels. I wonder whether only the P- gets the Pilot Sport 4 tyres on the 18” aero wheels in the UK rather than the MXM4 on the dual motor LR. No paranoia and appreciate your helpful advice. I will contact the service centre to find out Re the performance software.

    M3P- . What is it, how to order it, etc.

    Are you sure the display shows Dual Motor with the red underline? I just picked up my P- and it just says Dual Motor in the display, but the badging on the boot lid has the red underline. Still not sure whether mine has the 0-60 of 3.2 secs. No track mode either but the tytres are Michelin Pilot...

    Top Speed of M3 Perfomance vs Performance plus

    The underline is red. The whole issue seems to be more convolutwd than it appears as there seem to be different interpretations of the P- spec, eg with or without track mode, top speed 145 or 162 etc. For my part the only appeal was the quicker acceleration. I did a test run using the FastR...

    Top Speed of M3 Perfomance vs Performance plus

    No track mode option. My understanding and the Tesla website states this is only part of the performance upgrade pack.

    LR AWD vs P3D-

    My understanding is that the P- has the same motors as the P+ but that top speed is software limited to 145 rather than 162. It takes brute horsepower and torque to improve the 0-60 time from 4.4 to 3.2 secs, not simply a software switch (in my opinion!)

    Top Speed of M3 Perfomance vs Performance plus

    First post here so Hi to everyone. Collected my P- this week and it has PS4 tyres on 18” aero wheels. Have googled reviews of this tyre and although it is classified as a summer tyre it actually came 1st in a comparative test in the all weather tyre category. 2018 AZ Summer AND All Season Tyre...
