    Loud Suspension Thump at Low Speeds or Sharp Turns

    I had the issue come back way, way worse and I took it in to the SC again. They found that the "front sway bar was loose." and they ended up performing a "front suspension torque check to verify everything is torqued to spec". That's what they wrote on the invoice. When I talked to the guy he...

    Loud Suspension Thump at Low Speeds or Sharp Turns

    I am having an issue with my Tesla Model 3 where a loud "thunk", "clunk", or "thump" sound is coming from my suspension or wheel area (I think). Whenever I am at relatively low speed and making a sharp turn, or sometimes when I'm at an incline and going up a small ramp (like a parking garage) is...

    Wet in compartment under trunk under false floor

    I just discovered my under trunk area completely soaked as well. It is also where I kept my spare UMC. The regular area of my trunk was completely dry. Mine is a 2018 and is now out of warranty. Any idea what this will cost me to repair?

    WTB: Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Charger with (optional) NEMA 14-50 Connector

    I'm looking for a Tesla Gen 2 Mobile Connector anyone might be selling. I was hoping to get it for around $250 with the NEMA 14-50 adapter but I would also be interested in just the Mobile Charger as well.

    Have Tesla insurance, just got DMV letter "Intent to Suspend" for lack of insurance

    As previously mentioned, they don't do the claims handling themselves, it's outsourced to a third party. I'm not sure if it varies by city or anything but my claim (I was rear-ended at a stop light) has been handled by Crawford and Company. It has not been a great experience I will say. I can't...

    Bluetooth Phone Auto-connect lost

    No, unfortunately I still don't have it resolved. Since I last posted I did get the HW3 update thinking that, maybe, who knows, it might help, but alas, nope.

    Have Tesla insurance, just got DMV letter "Intent to Suspend" for lack of insurance

    Just a quick update, it does in fact look like they have sorted this out for folks who had a effective suspension date of 12/30/19 or later. Here is what I see now when I go to the DMV site to check the status of my Insurance Verification Inquiry:

    Have Tesla insurance, just got DMV letter "Intent to Suspend" for lack of insurance

    Just sent an email to the DMV and am just patiently awaiting a response that I know will never come. Also, I called Tesla Insurance. The guy was pretty nice but he said that Tesla and the DMV have it all worked out now and that if your "Suspension Effective Date" is after December 30th (not...

    Have Tesla insurance, just got DMV letter "Intent to Suspend" for lack of insurance

    Was poking around my insurance policy and found this little gem (highlighting emphasis mine):

    Have Tesla insurance, just got DMV letter "Intent to Suspend" for lack of insurance

    I went online to the DMV and that did not work. Tried calling the DMV as the letter suggests, that also did not work. Then I googled it and realized I probably should have come here first. After reading all the message, I'm still not sure what the next move is here. Call Tesla? Call the DMV...

    Bluetooth Phone Auto-connect lost

    I haven't tried renaming my phone but that will definitely be something for me to try. I also have a few Irish friends with apostrophes in their names. I may try and remove those to see if it works.

    Bluetooth Phone Auto-connect lost

    I should also clarify that my Bluetooth Key feature works just fine. The techs at the SC said that they checked my BT antenna and signal for any faults but could not detect anything. After some back and forth I'm bringing my car back in on Monday so I'll keep you guys posted. That should...

    Bluetooth Phone Auto-connect lost

    Sorry to resurrect this thread but yeah I've basically had the exact same issue on my 3 since day one (3/18). My issues are one of these: Get in car, doesn't auto-connect at all, even if I wait for several minutes, even after I've started driving. Phone connects before I even get in car, as...

    Making Dashcam/Sentry work with Jeda V2 wireless charging pad.

    I got my car back from the SC and they told me that I wouldn't be able to use a the USB splitter. I asked about the OEM Qi Wireless charger and they said that it doesn't matter, it's the splitter that causes the issues "slow USB" issues. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    How to add FAST wireless charging.

    It's not noticeably heavy or bulky but then again I don't have anything to compare it to. I've never seen or held any of the other options in real life.

    Model 3 performance price $1k increase and new black wheels available

    I'm still rolling with the factory tires as of right now but i'm open to suggestions if you know of any that work with the 19" sport wheels and also stick out further than the rims. I do my best but like I said even looking at the curb will give you curb rash. it's practically science.

    Model 3 performance price $1k increase and new black wheels available

    All I want is an Tesla OEM wheel that doesn't stick so far out from the tire that if you even look at a curb wrong, you'll get curb rash.

    How to add FAST wireless charging.

    I pre-ordered mine but I have no idea if it does or doesn't have the battery. It was one of the reasons I went with the Nomad. How can I tell if it has the battery? Once I get mine back from the SC I guess I can try unplugging it and seeing if it still charges?

    Making Dashcam/Sentry work with Jeda V2 wireless charging pad.

    My 3 is at the SC for some repairs (rattles galore, Bluetooth not auto-connecting, and a bowing A-Pillar trim) but I also have the issue where it tells me that my USB drive is too slow, even though its a USB 3.1 drive from San Disk that I tested and is capable of real world transfers nearing...

    Comprehensive List of Model 3 Updates

    At some point in the middle of 2018 they added what was called the "Rear Trunk Garnish". Basically its this plastic piece that covers the exposed metal on the underside of the top part of the trunk. It helps prevent scratching luggage or other cargo as you pull it out. I believe there were some...

    Model 3 Front Bumper in Midnight Silver (Used)

    I have a used Model 3 Front Bumper cover in midnight silver. It was pulled from my car (OEM) after someone backed into my car attempting to parallel park. Structurally the thing is great. There are thin cracks in the paint from where the bumper flexed. Also there is a scratch (on the underside...
