I find I use an additional 50% energy in the winter when compared to summer driving. My drive to work uses 10% batt in the summer and 15% in the winter.

1) None 2) No 3) No Haven't regretted my decision yet. My town is fairly small and I hadn't seen any Tesla prior now there are a handful of them running around town.

No

I've never had an issue with Tesla Service, I've been in 3 times for various things. Sometimes the wait can be a pain and I don't live close so I don't get the Uber credits. They usually have a car for me, I put that request in when I submit for service. Mobile Service came out first week to...

No reason not to have it inspected.

Depends on how long they think the service will take, if it's just an hour or two they don't provide loaners. I've had my car in for service a few times and have always gotten a loaner if they're planning on keeping the vehicle overnight. Otherwise same day service I've just waited at the...

I'd go the totaled route and find a mint front seat.

MAACO baby! $50 for a hood job

Is there a reason you can't leave the car plugged in? Setting the car to off-peak charging telling it you want to leave at 5am. It'll charge closer to departure time and have everything warmed up. Then set pre-condition for the same departure time. You'll never have to worry about a cold...

YES! I hear it every time I restart the car. It's annoying and I don't remember when it started. Maybe 4-6 months now.

normal

I believe the credits expire after 1 year.

Home 80% in the summer / 85% in the winter

Same build date. How big is the improvement over our current side markers? Worth spending the cash?

This is all I'd want as well. Normally I'm not a fan of piecemeal but in this case it makes sense.

If the Cybertruck doesn't release by 2025 I'll have to rethink Tesla.

I usually see 2-3% higher on the charge and I associate that with the preconditioning in the morning. On mornings where I don't precondition my batt is filled right to 80%. The wall connector will dump more juice into the car while your preconditioning.

Thinking about the Cybertruck or an EV pickup. We'll have to see since I plan to keep the Y for a few more years

From what I've experienced it's what the car can see. I've had times where on the highway it's posted 70 for cars then 60 for trucks. If there's a truck in the right lane blocking the 60 sign the car won't change the speed limit to 60. If there is clear line of sight to the 60mph sign it...

This is my go-to winter charge rate and 75% in the summer. 1.5yrs in and still have 312mi est on 100%

Why would you say that?

If it's not something you can manually turn on or off I'm not interested. Right now lowering regen and driving in chill mode work just fine.

You've got to remember that there are delivery fees associated with electricity as well. So realistically the true cost of the juice is probably 50% to 75% less than what you're dividing out here.

I wish the code was for rear door repaint. I'm 25,000 miles in at this point. The email is too little too late.

Costco was great with my Y. They are familiar with the cars and were able to repair a tire with a bolt puncture in a similar location to yours. I would avoid Tesla SC for this kind of thing. I've heard good things about Discount Tire as well, we just don't have one close.

I did just fine. The regen was intuitive and I felt like I caught on quickly. My drive home was about 35 miles so it gave me some time to practice. The one that took the longest was AP. I didn't realize it was a double tap, a single is just adaptive cruise. If you've watched videos and...

I had never seen a Tesla in person prior to going to pick mine up. I sat in the parking lot of the dealership longer than I care to admit figuring out how to shift the car and get things adjusted. #NoRegrets it's been a fantastic vehicle for the family.

It's not a phenomenon... your batteries are cold. If you don't want cold batteries set your leave time and have the car precondition.

You have to be at a complete stop with foot on brake for the button to work.

Wow... I guess a bonus for those of us that adopted early, we can still control our regen. I always drop it to low in the winter, makes a big difference. I'll have to look up the information stated by @DrGriz, the bias change makes sense as I do notice a change to the regen.

I've noticed these past few updates no longer push to the app and let me know they're available. I only find out when I get in the car and I'm ready to leave. Has anyone else noticed this?

Hey, that's great! Glad to hear it. I wish they'd go over some of these simple things. Since the car doesn't have a key you can't cycle the ignition like an ICE vehicle.

I found this to be true last week. It was right at 0'F and I had a trip to make. Made it home with 18% left and the car estimated I'd make it back with 17%. I've found through the winter, really the only time I'm paying attention to range, that the vehicle does a great job of estimating...

This is exactly what I did. It was easy and quick too. They got the part in a few days.

I would look at upgrading your service. 100 amp is quite old at this point.

I had this happen 12 days ago. I hadn't even shifted out of park yet. I got out waited 20 min and came back and the errors were gone. It's been fine since and the service team ran some diagnostics and said it was a software issue. They said sometimes the vehicle needs the "Drive Rail" cycled...

This is what mine look like and I was told it's "a characteristic of the product".

It worked for me immediately. Sent the message at 7pm and had a 7am appointment right away. They monitor the message system 24/7

Send a message in the appointment saying "Other than freezing my ass off is there any damage or concern with driving the car with the heating system is broken?" They'll move you up to next day.

It's a remote service alert pushed by Tesla to your car. Possibly a recall.

That isn't the real speed limit. It's more of a suggestion or warning. The true speed limit is always posted in white.

Had this happen last week. They replaced the three pressure sensors and added refrigerant. The tech said that they've made 3 iterations of these sensors since my vehicle was built. They old style don't last as long in the extreme cold. There were also two recalls they performed "Reseal Front...

I run into something similar here. We have car, bus, semi speed limits and they appear on the road in that order so the AP sets 70 then 65 then 60. Going 60 on the highway is a death sentence. Makes AP useless...

Have you had the windshield replaced? I heard of instances where after the windshield is replaced the cabin temp sensor doesn't accurately read the cabin temperature and needs replacing as well.

Can you post your invoice for the warranty claim? Thanks.

Similar experience here. Winter uses double the energy of summer. My commute usually takes 10% each way and in the winter I was talking 20-25%.

Tesla came back with "it's a characteristic of the product; no repair or concern required. Please close your request." I pushed back with a video of a 2021 Model Y without the glare. We'll see what they say...

Service appointment for tomorrow morning. We'll see what they say.
