    Musk Says Model Y Production Ramp is ‘Top Priority’

    having filtered through many comments on panel gaps and paint - I was most amused to see other model's forums making mention of quality problems that seem much more frequent... the pic below is a nearly new and undamaged Nissan I parked near today with a panel gap I could get get my pinky in...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I'm a distinctly amateur newcomer to investment and this thread - I have picked up many bits and pieces of info along the way... including now, following a small inheritance, the courage to buy $12k worth of TSLA stock - ( $6,000 at $720 early Feb, and $6000 at $350 yesterday, approx figures) I...

    light hearted request... your car name? - and why

    I used to sing that song with altered words to reflect my occupation for a while - no need to ask he's a boom operator...

    light hearted request... your car name? - and why

    I haven't done so since we had three successive named cars from when I was 0 till 9 - (Mrs Binnity, Green Dragon and Bluebottle) but Tesla seem to almost insist you do...and so I thought - as I intend to keep this a very long time - why not...

    Multiple system failure / Wiring Harness Recall

    yeah - I always remember the law of diminishing returns as well - once you started using WD 40 you ended up needing to use it every bloody day just to get going...- there must be a more advanced damp repellent by now - and why are these electrical components left open to water ingress anyway?

    light hearted request... your car name? - and why

    I remember there being a character called "2ton Tessy O'Shea" - a bit heavier than the 3 perhaps :-)

    Model Y - Hands On

    I swear I saw a picture of a Y with chrome handles the other day... (maybe someone playing around) thanks so much for this detailed upload - I had heard that there is an extra speaker in the door - and this may be one of several tweaks made from the M3 to enhance the Y... the side by side pics...

    light hearted request... your car name? - and why

    Mine in the profile pic is the LR - and I chose: Azuri - because I like the sound of Italian and for popularity it's overtaking Ferrari's Rosso - The ceramic coating and rim Gaytors were fitted by Richard at PPProtect, Burton on Trent.

    I'm on 2020.4, and still no updates. Is there a way to force my M3 to update?

    I have just heard that they have stopped the roll out of .8.1 and .12 because of typical Beta problems - I got the .8.1 - and it seems to have improved the voice commands but not much else. A new and better one will be along soon.

    Multiple system failure / Wiring Harness Recall

    Old man rambling here maybe - but I was wondering if anyone who had this set of warnings appear and assumed it was damp penetration of this electrical connector... If - anyone tried giving it the old WD40 treatment? (for younger folk - many cars back in the 1970s used to get damp plugs/leads...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    declaration - I own a small amount of Tesla Stock and a Model 3 AWD. The New York Post made sure instead of editorialising it just quoted Elon's denial but does anyone else think that Brian Sparks and his poor little corrupt heart deserve more publicity for what he has done? The man is a...

    Car App in a coma

    - It stayed stuck until I unlocked the car - using the proximity of the phone - which shows that there is some connectivity (Bluetooth?) that continues without the app saying its awake... as soon as I got into the car the app was wide awake. I think it's like a new puppy - really cannot deal...

    Car App in a coma

    new Model 3 owner here - and my app seems to be in a coma too - used the car yesterday - finished charging in the middle of the night - so sound asleep the app has told me it's waking up for the past 25 minutes - sometimes switching to say it updated yesterday - but no progress from phone...

    Best home charger

    Thanks for the heads up Dave I will remember to ask - there are a couple of other options that could just about fir in the narrow space - I actually would possibly get the Tesla charger if the charger connection was also possibly placed on the left not just the right side of the unit.

    Hi Guys - first post newbie here - have recently ordered a model 3 and have off street parking but live in a conservation area where the frontage is listed grade 2. I am going for an untethered EO mini - as here EO Residential Installation | Rapid Online because I think it will hide nicely...
