I just got 12.3 on my Model Y, and I've stopped using it already. I really dislike the mandatory 1-pull activation for full FSD. I hadn't realized how often I like to use the cruise control while doing my own steering, and that's not an option right now if you've selected the FSD option. Back...

ChargeHQ manages my cars charge current very well with my Powerwalls, but I'm not sure about other solar setups. They have a free version, and a 60 day free trial of the full version. I'm very happy with it! https://chargehq.net/

There is an app for the Samsung Galaxy watch 4 (and higher) called Drive Electric. It has an "open on approach" feature that works on both the trunk and trunk. It has many other functions as well, and is one of my favorite watch apps...

I suppose I should clarify my "funny" response to the previous post. The video was funny, I enjoyed that. But not as a response to the OP problem. But I don't think I can upvote and downvote at the same time, so I just went with amusing video.

Gosh, I always thought it was to knock the neutrons loose so they don't clog up the wires! :cool:

No, it really is closed. And stop calling me Shirley! 😁

It's pointless to use COP in a garage that is hotter than the COP temperature. The car is just pumping the internal heat to the exterior, which in the garage just makes the car's environment hotter. So the car works even harder to cool the interior. It's a feedback loop that just wastes...

Is this in one location, or everywhere? Recently I noticed that I have no connectivity from just outside my house to a few blocks away. I just sort of assumed that the phone company may have switched a local cell tower to 5G and dropped the LTE. I really have no idea if this is correct, but...

I have to agree. Pre-Tesla, I always changed my blades at least once every year. However, now I'm still on the originals after 3 1/2 years. It doesn't rain much here in Arizona, but it did just last week, and they still work very well, with no streaking or chattering. BTW, my cars are...

Hi Runar, thanks for your quick response, and sorry for my slow response. Yes, I had tried the things you suggested, without success. But today I had an update for the phone app, and the watch app suddenly started working again. I have no idea if it was related, but all is good now. Thanks...

I hate to use this forum for a support question, but I don't have Facebook or Reddit accounts, and there doesn't appear to be a web site. So... Apparently my Tesla login token expired, so I had to sign in on the phone app, which worked fine - it says "A valid token is sent to the watch app"...

Another question... does the repair show on Carfax? If so, there's some "diminished value" there.

Off topic, but you might want to think about turning off cabin overheat protection in the garage. It's just pumping heat from the interior of the car to the exterior of the car, which is not a favorable feedback situation in a closed garage.

I respond to this back in March... Anyway, I have found that the easiest and quickest way to fix this is to just select another audio source. This usually resolves it almost instantly, and then you can switch back to what you wanted to listen to.

Yes, you're quite right - it's not nearly as reliable as we'd like. I suppose I should have said they are supposed to be recording constantly. If it's a software problem rather than hardware, we can at least hope for improvement in the future.

FYI, Nord VPN has a feature called split tunneling. Put the Tesla app in there and you should be OK.

32K miles on 2020 MYP (stealth) with stock Conti Pro Contact tires on Gemini wheels (no covers), 280 wh/mi lifetime. I just switched to Hankook Evo Ion AS SUV, it will be interesting to see how they compare.

FWIW, Discount Tire will match prices if you order them online. Also, Hankook recently extended their $100 rebate until June 30.

I thought this rebate had expired - thank you very much for posting this!

Or just roll down the driver window, get out and close the door, then lean in and do the power-off thing from outside the car.

I would also say that, at least in my experience, the Wear OS version is a vast improvement over the Tizen version, and well worth the money.

You could tell if you could find the airspeed velocity.

No, the app doesn't need to be open in the foreground. But go into settings, apps, and the Tesla app settings and make sure that it has "Unrestricted" battery access.

They record all the time, but only save the last ten minutes when you hit the horn (if you have that option selected) or the camera icon.

I can highly recommend Hyer Quality Detail in Tempe. I had both my M3 and MY PPF'd, ceramic coated, and tinted right after I received them. 3 years later, they still look brand new, and the tinting is still flawless. I'm apparently not the only one who thinks highly of them, either. It's...

I see that all the time since my last software update. It's the audio trying to start in my case. I have to switch to a different audio source (USB to radio, for example) to get any audio to work. Happens every time I "start" the car. Annoying, and I'm looking forward to the next update to...

There's a similar big thread going on over at a large Ford Mach-E forum. I was really surprised at the number of people who are cancelling their Mach-E orders and ordering a Tesla.

Yes. It also gets annoyed if you look at the screen for too many seconds.

Teslas all come with a J1772 charging adapter, so you should be able to use anybody's level 2 charger. Pretty sure they are all J1772.

If you end up buying out of state or having to drive more than one charge-worth of distance home, make sure you can supercharge before hitting the road. I seem to recall reading stories of people having to wait for days for the ownership transfer to register with the Tesla mothership. Being...

Another suggestion: if your VPN supports split tunneling, turn that on and put the Tesla app on the "bypass VPN" side.

Are any of you using VPN? I had a similar problem when I first started using VPN on my phone. The Tesla app at that time didn't like it, but my VPN app (Nord) has an option called split tunneling which allows you to select apps that are to be excluded from the VPN operation. I added Tesla to...

I had this same problem some time ago. I couldn't fish the piece out either, and in frustration, I tapped the handle on the concrete floor, nose down. The piece just fell right out!

Did you send the video to the "Wham Bam Teslacam" folks on YouTube?

I just priced out what my MYP replacement would be ... 88K. Yours sounds like a pretty good deal to me.

I don't know if this applies to newer cars (or even mine!) or not, but it's interesting: https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-autopilot-camera-updgrades-full-self-driving/

In the past, when facing similar decisions on other cars, I always chose the "more practical" model. And I always quietly regretted it. So I eventually learned my lesson, thus my current "no regrets" lineup.

A couple more things that may or may not help... I seem to recall that Android used to have the ability to autostart an app, but I cannot find that in my current release (12 on a Pixel 3A). So whenever I restart my phone, I have to remember to start the Tesla app just so it will always be...

Is your battery usage set to "Unrestricted" for the Tesla app?

I suggest using plugshare.com or their app for charger locations. Abetterrouteplanner.com is great for route planning. And if the campground has RV hookups, you can use your mobile connector with a Tesla 14-50 adapter or the evseadapters.com TT-30 adapter.

Upon rereading this thread, it doesn't look like we have cleared up the "NEMA 14-50" question. So, campground/RV "50 amp service" is indeed NEMA 14-50, and the Tesla adapter works for that without modification. For "30 amp" service, there is no Tesla-sourced adapter, but the EVSE TT-30 works well.

Or you could get one of these: https://www.evseadapters.com/products/tt-30-adapter-for-tesla-model-s-x-3-gen-2/

OP, I have had the same problem as you. Several trips across New Mexico pre-FSD, and no problems. Last trip with FSD (EAP on the highway), and LOTS of severe phantom braking. I ended up "turning off" FSD when I got home. I haven't traveled much since then so I don't know if that helped or...

No, you're on the latest FSD. This site has lots of good info on the various software releases: https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/

I would look at www.evseadapters.com. They have lots of hard-to-find equipment, and excellent customer service.

I had this problem a couple of days ago: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/autopilot-cruise-control-unavailable.267916/#post-6750367

OK, apparently a reload of the same 2022.12.3.2 software fixed the problem, at least for me. It was "fixed" less than an hour after i submitted the ticket. I have to say that I am pretty pleased with that level of service!

Same here, but 2020 MYP, same SW version (found thread via search). Although it doesn't "see" other cars, I got a collision warning with the red car icon, then it vanished. It doesn't "see" traffic lights, but I got the green light chime when the light changed. No traffic signs, cars, or...

I always carry my key card In my wallet in case my phone key doesn't work, for whatever reason. YMMV.
