    anyone try the new pirelli ev tires?

    How often do you have to top off? That's one thing I was amazed about with the OEM MXM4s...the only time I had to change the inflation was seasonally. For me, that's super rare and not necessarily a knock on the Pirelli's unless you're saying that you're having to do it, say, weekly.

    Pirelli P Zero Tires Good / Bad?

    I just got a set yesterday for my 2019 LR RWD and love them. The ride is noticeably improved, they're clearly quieter, etc....basically all praise so far. I'm not sure how much is due to them simply being new tires vs worn ones. We'll see on the efficiency. (duplicate post)

    I Found and “Fixed” Another Noise/Vibration Point

    I’d had two separate vibe issues coming from this area, one that resonated with a tone generator around 70-80hz and another that I couldn’t produce with the app. This fixed both! I’d tried less “aggressive” versions of the same but ultimately gave this a shot with a spare microfiber towel...

    Phone key issues - anyone just throw in the towel and use card or buy fob?

    Happens to me occasionally. Turning Bluetooth off and then back on usually helps.

    Model 3 Mud Flaps and glove box organizer

    How do you like that organizer? I've almost bought one. Good fit? Possible rattles? That is, is it a felted/rubberized or hard/smooth surface?

    Audio Volume Blares when coming off mute

    In this case, it appears to be the same volume setting, but certainly frequencies are "over-amplified" initially. After a second or two, they resume normal levels.

    Audio Volume Blares when coming off mute

    Has anyone noticed that when the audio is muted and you unmute via scrolling or depressing the left steering wheel button, the volume is suddenly much louder, especially for bass frequencies (or just the sub?). This seems to me a possible effect of the amplifier turning back on and I think is...

    Same. Mine have proven either far too sensitive (high speed for drizzle), or not sensitive enough (nothing during standard rain).

    Model 3 mud guards

    Wow...didn't notice that on mine, but now I'm concerned. I had washed and sealed the area behind them just prior. I haven't installed PPF before and was a little hesitant to go that route.

    Model 3 mud guards

    Has anyone removed these after they've been on for a while and seen whether there's any issue with them rubbing against the paint while driving? Mine (Basenor) are pretty tightly fitted, and they can move slightly under certain loads but it's hard to guess how much they'd move while driving...

    Western WA model 3 window tint? Seattle, Bellevue, etc.

    I’ve used Metropolitan Detail in the past and the owner, John, is great to work with. I’ve heard good things about Accutint but haven’t used them. They have multiple locations. I’m holding off on tint at the moment but will do it eventually.

    Wow that’s pretty cheap! What price have others here paid? I’ve seen $700-$1500 or so.

    Black or white model 3?

    I originally decided on black and then went with white for durability, maintainability, lower cost, and that I ended up thinking that the white was better looking. The black tends to disguise some of the design elements of the car. And the pearl effect adds depth.

    SR+ vs Dual / premium interior vs Partial

    This is clearly the other really important "feature". There are lists of the exact differences in other threads, but one other one is (more) interior ambient lighting.

    Long Range, RWD

    There have been a few that have popped up in inventory in the past few months but they haven’t actually been available to order for months. I just took delivery of one of these but it was built in April. I think there was also some mention of an attempt to fill dormant orders last month, but...

    What kind of windshield washer fluid does Model 3 Use?

    Not that it's worth everyone's time, but I just make my own out of alcohol, water, and Dr. Bronners. Recipes online. Works super well and seems gentle enough on finishes. Disclaimer: have not tried this yet in the Model 3 system...

    On the fence...reasons to return (?)

    I'm in the 7d period on a new white ext/black int/aero LR RWD (4/19 build) purchased at the default prices. This is after a string of false starts on various VINs. Having driven it for a few days,this one seems mostly sound, though there are a few things giving me pause. I have no idea how...

    Noise under dash when waking up from sleep

    My guess is we're all talking about two distinct/different sounds. The one I referenced is a little lower-key. I'll try to grab a sample.

    Noise under dash when waking up from sleep

    Hmm. Mine doesn't sound quite like that but when the heat is starting up, i've heard what I've thought must be the coils warming from cold. Granted, mine is new to me and has always been that way (all 4 days).

    Delivery Fee for New Inventory Cars?

    I haven't paid a great deal of attention to it in the past, but I could have sworn there was a note on the Tesla new inventory page that would alert to a potential $1000-1500 fee for transport of new inventory cars to an alternate location. I'm not seeing that anymore (or not looking in the...

    Demo vehicle pricing

    I had a LR RWD demo reserved with a $2k discount and 800 miles. I found out the night before delivery it had been in an accident, repaired, and then listed for sale. I chose not to take it. With all that, it was still considered "New" since it had never been titled...
