    Model Y RWD now available. RWD+AWD now eligible for iZEV Rebate

    Do you have sentry mode turned on at home? If so, your car is not 'asleep' and what you're hearing is the coolant pump running while the car stays awake. Turn off sentry mode at home (if its safe to do so) and you'll find that the car will fall asleep and you'll no longer hear any sound coming...

    Flaky charge port door after latest upgrade?

    Old thread but this issue has been fully resolved in 2022.4.5.1. The charge port now takes a few seconds to close after unplugging the charge cable.

    Flaky charge port door after latest upgrade?

    I was looking for a thread to make sure it wasn't just me. I have the exact same issue since the latest update. When I am leaving home, I press the button on the connector handle and the charge door wants to close right away - so I have to be really quick to unplug. Also, when I get home I press...

    Windshield Replacement For Model 3 - Toronto Area

    I am not sure whether you are asking me or OP. I had a small chip which (thankfully) did not develop into a crack so I just left it as-is.

    Windshield Replacement For Model 3 - Toronto Area

    Does anybody have any suggestions for getting a very small rock chip fixed by a 3rd party vendor? Tesla SC wants to replace the entire windshield per the cost estimate that they just sent to me for the appointment that I had booked via the app - $732 parts + $350 labor.

    Deep Blue Metallic Model 3 Photos

    Wow, doing some of that PPF yourself is quite impressive! I too have full frontal coverage (bumper, hood, mirror covers, A-pillars, rocker panels, rear bumper luggage area) but I got it done by a shop. Also a Yale Assure owner but with the August module. I am a Homekit guy :)

    Windshield Replacement For Model 3 - Toronto Area

    Thanks! I have tried one of those DIY kits in the past on my BMW but its not quite the same as a professional job. They are able to apply more pressure with their tools and get the epoxy to push into the crack a lot better.

    Windshield Replacement For Model 3 - Toronto Area

    Noticed a small chip right next to the passenger side A-pillar this morning. I called Speedy and they said that they aren't allowed to work on Tesla since they don't have access to Tesla OEM windshields in case the crack spreads while they're working on it. Did anybody here have luck with a...

    Ha! E46 owner here - 2004 330i sedan (with a whole bunch of mods). But I have special respect for cool wagon owners. I am curious - did you do the ceramic coating and PPF by yourself? PS: Is that a Yale Assure smartlock for the garage door? Ok, this is getting weird now :D

    Model 3 new USB C center console data hub from model Y?

    This would be more valuable as we'd be able to move the sentry SSD into the glovebox and lock it with the PIN.

    Opening Charger Port with a tap

    It isn't really a 'tap'. You gotta press the bottom of the charge port door with a bit of force for it to open up. Imagine you're pressing one of the mouse buttons on your desktop computer - that amount of force.

    GTA drivers, when are you switching to winter tire this year?

    I got my new tires mounted and balanced by Xtreme tires in Mississauga. They are pricy but do a stellar job. If you have nice/fancy wheels and don't want them to get damaged during mount/balance, I would strongly recommend these guys. https://xtremetiregarage.com/

    GTA drivers, when are you switching to winter tire this year?

    Sure! I got them from PMCtire (a outfit in Sherbrooke, QC). I have bought tires from them in the past for my BMW and their customer service is top notch. Replika - R241 Wheels - Silver - 18" x 8.5", 5 x 114.3, 64.1 mm, 40 mm - PMCtire Canada

    My experience with Tesla Insurance after destroying my leased Model 3 in a freeway accident

    OP, you're a real class act. "I hit the bullbar of the Jeep. At first I thought it was nothing, so I left without checking anything and parked elsewhere a few hundreds feet awa. I then saw the damage on my Tesla." Broke my back headlight and bumper while trying to parallel park "I am not...

    Winter Tire Swap

    You can still buy everything except the TPMS from them and then pick up the BLE TPMS sensors from your nearest service center. Still a lot cheaper than buying the winter wheel package from Tesla. Does Tesla even carry a winter wheel package for the Y?

    Winter Tire Swap

    PSA for anybody looking to buy winter wheels + tires, you could get slightly better pricing from PMCtire - no group buy required. I just bought my set from them, including TPMS sensors. I have no associations with PMCtire. This was my invoice: TPMS - 4x $207.96 Michelin - X-Ice Snow -...

    Aftermarket Wheels on Model 3

    I'd say go for it! The gloss silver ones just came out and I had pre-ordered them back in August (I got the 18" version). Just got them installed on my Blue Model 3 and I think it complements all the chrome very nicely. Haven't posted pics here since I don't have the matching chrome lug nut...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    Sorry, 'argument' as in your point of view/understanding, not a heated discussion :) I am not sure I agree. The document assumes a 72 month payback period and it states that clearly and all the interest charges etc are based on that assumption. I am sure it also states that you can pay back...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    You're completely ignoring the "72 months" portion on that document while making your argument. The loan document is making the assumption that you're going to be paying back for the full term of 72 months, in which case you are responsible to pay back the principal ($50,619.56) and the interest...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    That is simply not true. The Scotiabank/RBC financing for Tesla is just like any other 'open' car loan. You can pay it off in full at any time without any penalties. You only accrue interest for the outstanding principal in your account and if you pay off the principal in full, you don't accrue...

    Your SA should be providing you with all this info but you should bring a void check (for direct monthly withdrawals) as well as a bank draft for the remainder of your downpayment.

    Blue w/ White Interior: DDay Tomorrow & Questions regarding PPF...

    Before getting delivery of my Model 3, I had the same thoughts as you "Oh man, a satin white center console would look lovely with the rest of the white interior". Then I got the car and got XPEL ultimate PPF on exterior and Suntek (35%) ceramic tint and decided to live with the car for a few...

    Blue w/ White Interior: DDay Tomorrow & Questions regarding PPF...

    OP, I have a Model 3 with the same Blue/White combo. Trust me when I say this - don't get the centre console wrapped in white. It will reflect like crazy on your side windows (which you are going to get tinted I assume) and will really distract you while you are driving or backing up the car in...

    Financing Tesla vehicles in Canada

    When I went through the financing process back in Feb, that is pretty much how it goes. You receive financing for the entire amount of the car + taxes (minus the deposit). It was a week before the delivery when I asked the DA to put in additional down payment amount that I would bring in on...

    Actually, I'd say its even less. I placed my order on Feb 9th when the base price of a LR AWD was $65,880 (I had tacked on blue exterior with white interior options for a total of $68,480). It stands at $64,990 today without any options ($67,590 with blue exterior + white interior). So $890 net...
