    Charging port door doesn't auto open

    Had the same problem. Mobile service came out and replaced the receiver. That fixed it.

    Supercharger - Portsmouth, RI

    As a Portsmouth resident and Model 3 owner, I was at first surprised by the proposed location but after some thought it probably will do ok. It's a reasonable place to accommodate visitors to Aquidneck Island that come from the Providence, Fall River, and Boston areas. Welcome to town, Tesla.

    2021 Model 3 LR: Winter tires with BLE TPMS

    Tirerack.com stocks the TPMS at $95 each. I recently upgraded by 2019 Model 3 to a 2021 version and discovered the snows' TPMS wouldn't work. (BTW, they were Blizzak 235/45R18 and they work well on both cars. I just have to live with the TPMS error message) I'll probably spring for the...

    Has anyone traded in their 3 for a 21 refresh ?

    Just one update: I just put on my snow tires that I originally bought for my 2019 onto the 2021. (They are mounted on their own rims so it was a simple swap). However, I learned, to my dismay, that the TPMS system has changed in 2021. According to Tirerack.com, where I bought the snows...

    Has anyone traded in their 3 for a 21 refresh ?

    I just took delivery of an LR AWD, trading in a 2019 SR+. The big reason was the additional range but the availability of the refresh upgrades were also enticing. My first impressions are positive. The interior is quieter and the new design features are, in my opinion, quite nice...

    Car Wash Mode - Instructions!

    Thank you for posting this. I've often fumbled, at the carwash, with getting the car in Neutral. Like others have mentions, I use the location-based mirror auto-fold. I've set it for the carwash I generally use and it works perfectly.

    Snow Tires cost 10% of efficiency

    I bought my snow tires -- Bridgestone Blizzak WS90 -- for my SR+ on December 9 and noticed an immediate decrease in range. I finally have enough data to quantify this and came up with about a 10% increase in Wh/Mile. I looked at all trips greater than 5 miles and with an ambient outside...

    How much do you value SR+ to LR (AWD) range upgrade?

    As a happy SR+ owner I can honestly say that I -- on rare occasions -- do miss having more range, especially in the winter. However, our extended road trips are pretty rare and we usually can plan around it. I recently completed a 1000 mile cold weather road trip through upstate New York...

    FleetCarma Is there a downside?

    I've had fleetcarma for a few months now and prior to that it was on my plug-in hybrid. No issues and no problems and the amount of data you get is great. It is a bit tricky to install but the directions and video are clear and easy to follow.
