    Sentry Mode. Doesn’t record much activity 2022.20.8

    I feel like the software has dulled the detection algorithm to save battery life. Sentry mode was very sensitive on my M3. However due to that activity I would loose about 1% an hour sometimes. Being that the Y has worst range, I think Tesla is countering that in any way possible.

    7 Seater 2nd Row End Cap Issues

    my 22 March build has same issue. It came off a few times. On the last time I punched it real hard a few times and it hasn’t come off again. Brute force works here. Maybe use a mallet if you don’t want to hurt yourself.

    Model 3 - Free Supercharging

    Referral miles have expiration as well. I believe the app use to show when they are set to expire. That program is no longer available and I don’t think anyone has referral miles anymore.

    Sentry Mode. Doesn’t record much activity 2022.20.8

    Since the recent and previous update, sentry mode barely records activity. Normally if a car parks next to me I would receive an alert. Recently someone dinged my car and left a note and sentry mode did not record any of it. Thank god the person left a note. Anyone else notice similar...

    Model Y Rear Door Opening Width

    I agree with you. I just open it all the way and let it touch the car next to me.

    Model Y Mud Flaps (Rear Bolt Issue)

    They fixed the bolt. Didn’t question anything. Looks good now.

    Second row seat room

    I don’t think so…the only difference is you can move the second row forward if you have the 7 seater.

    Spontaneous Window Shatter

    Hello this issue has happened before on some teslas. I think the part is called window regulator mechanism. If this is too tight, it can cause the window to crack and in some extreme cases shatter. I heard about this because I had the window regulator on my car replaced and the technician...

    Model Y Mud Flaps (Rear Bolt Issue)

    What is your build date. I didn’t even try to install mud flaps. My bolt was broken. My car was build 3/22

    Model Y Mud Flaps (Rear Bolt Issue)

    I have a service appointment to get it checked out. I wonder if they’ll fix it or blame me

    Model Y Mud Flaps (Rear Bolt Issue)

    Interesting. I did not install mud flaps but I recently discovered my bolt was hanging. I wonder if tesla touched it and didn’t bother fixing it because I took the car in for axel hub creaking noises. I have a feeling they touched it… Wouldn’t never guess this was a common issue.

    Model Y wheel squeak

    Your high pitched sound is more like brake pads…might just need a lube and cleaning. Metal clicking sounds would be axel hub and spline.

    Model Y wheel squeak

    Creaking sound… is it like a metal clicking sound? This is issue with axel hub and spline. Requires lubrication of spline and retorque the axel hub to spec. Can make service appointment to have this looked at.

    Model Y wheel squeak

    Could be brakes rubbing. Could also be a rock lodged in between rotor? Would require inspection and maybe lubricate the brake pads.

    Is this worth requesting service

    Ahhh sorry. Re-read your post. What service center did you go? I’m out in SoCal and the pomona service center is better at deflecting than repairing in my opinion hahah

    Is this worth requesting service

    Sorry. This service question has nothing to do with mud flaps. The other person just thought it was mud flap related. This is about the under area of the rear bumper. The bolt is just dangling. I scheduled a service request…will see how it goes

    Back seat rattle

    I believe I know exactly the noise you’re talking about. I’ve heard it twice but only over a very bumpy road but like fine bumps. Doesn’t happen often but the rattle from this thing is ridiculous. If you have you end up getting this service please share your remarks from tesla. There is no...

    Back seat rattle

    Service will have someone sit in the car with you to listen to the problem. Back seat rattles could be a loose head rest. They will try to tighten things out to see if that resolved the issue. I would do a service appointment to have it looked it.

    Is this worth requesting service

    I have tesla oem mud flaps. Those only come in the front. The only people that have touched the car is tesla service. I’m sure they’ll try to blame it on something or since I’m pass 100 miles or 7 days they won’t fix it.

    New Model Y To-Do Question

    Wrap prevents rock chips. But larger or sharper items will cut through the wrap. Ceramic is basically just easier to wash your car. Doesn’t do much in terms of physical protection. These 2 depend how critical you are about your car….

    Is this worth requesting service

    Was washing the car and noticed this bolt is just hanging around. No feedback when trying to screw it in. Also cannot seem to take it out either. Is this worth a service request?

    Ding on rear passenger door

    Yeah if it doesn’t bug you then leave it alone.
  25. T

    Ding on rear passenger door

    Yeah. They were able to get it fixed in 10 mins. No drilling or going through the top window. They pried open the cable port on the lower portion of the door and worked out the ding. Trying to ask your repair man if they worked on tesla in the past to gauge experience

    LA -> Vegas roadtrip?

    Supercharging prices have gone up. Yermo is slightly cheaper. Also Primm is slightly cheaper as well. If you need to stop maybe aim for those 2 SC. Last SC that has off peak price is Fontana. Then nothing else will have off peak pricing. Off peak charging in Vegas is way cheaper than LA...

    Tesla Service

    Came back from my service appointment today. Heard clicking noises on my way home. My only advice. Have your technician check all 4 wheels. Seems like they did not inspect all the wheels. I sent a message to the service center asking technician to confirm what axels were worked on. Will need...

    Tesla Service

    I have the induction wheels. After researching on this forum and online. Teslas have an issue with the axle hub and spline. The spline needs to be greased and the hub needs to be torqued to spec, which is about 180 lbs. going into service this Tuesday to get the problem fixed. Seems like it’s...

    Tesla Insurance

    Thank you for responding. I was wrong in my response earlier. For Tesla vehicle owners with non-Tesla vehicles, you can also insure your non-Tesla vehicles by adding the vehicle when you purchase a policy. For existing policyholders, contact us to add your non-Tesla vehicles to your policy.

    Tesla Service

    There are so many cars in service. It would be near impossible to get a loaner. Hey OP. I just got my Y less than a month ago and last night the valet drove my car away and I hear clicks coming from the car. Today I drove with the window down to see if I could reproduce the issue. Turns out...

    Insurance rate increase

    Yes. I had the same thing happen. I received an email saying my rate would go up. In the details it said they were unable to verify I was a tesla employee. Apparently I was given employee discount for 2 years. There was nothing I could do to fight it. Then I got my model Y. So with the multi...

    Tesla Insurance

    Yes. It’s quite cheap if you have score of 98-99. They have a chart available for reference. When you are quoted for insurance. They assume you drive 90 score. So if you have 90+ each month. You will see a discount

    Ding on rear passenger door

    Walked around the car today and discovered this ding. It’s on the top body line. Anyone have a similar ding they got PDR (paint less dent removal)? Trying to avoid drilling and anything getting screwed up from the repair. Based on my research there is more bracing up there so it’s a difficult...

    Long Range or Performance

    It’s the combination of lower springs and 21in rims. Probably more so because of the rims. The tires are so thin there is not much cushion between you and the beautiful roads of Chicago. If you get some aftermarket rims maybe 19/20. Plus a thicker tire. You’ll be go. Your speedometer will be...

    I test drove the performance Y when I was ordering. The acceleration didn’t really matter. Floored it a few times but wasn’t blown away. I currently have a M3 and ordered the MYLR for a bigger family, baby boy. MYLR is good enough for most people. MYP. You have extra money to spend to splurge...
