I didn't notice much difference in noise between the OEM Michelins and the Nokian Ones but, then I have tinnitus.

I drove to a concert Sunday night and had to drive home afterward after 10pm. Ended up with a 71 for that day even though more than half of my 90 miles were before 10pm. Glad I am in CA and my Tesla insurance rate isn't affected. If I were, I might need to go elsewhere for insurance.

Take a look at the safety screen. I toggled the parking chimes to on. Note that there are still some gaps as I accidentally opened the rear hatch instead of the frunk and had the garage door closed. The rear hatch still opened and hit the garage door.

The Nokian One tires handle rain pretty well but, I didn't take it into snow before we sold the car. Our new Y was delivered and the 3 was sold to a relative.

You are doing better than we are in SoCal with the payment for excess electricity. Last settlement bill, we got paid 3.922 cents per kwh for our excess electricity. Still, we are glad we had excess electricity for our EVs as our rates go as high as $.54/kwh. We have a 6.27 kwh system for our...

Did you set up the settings to warn you when approaching objects? When I come into the tight garage, with another vehicle already in, I get numerous audible warnings and messages to stop. But, I can see I still have at least 4 inches of clearance so I proceed to park in the garage. I use a...

He ended up taking off the hubcaps and putting on an Amazon wheel kit. A little less stiff with the 19" wheels.

Wow! That's crazy. We ordered 1/21/22 our White/Black LR with Gemini wheels and got it last week, 9/29. Could it be the induction wheels are in short supply? My son ordered a Black/Black LR 7-seater in March, 2022, with induction wheels and was offered a similar Black LR 7-seater but, with...

Good for you. Seems to be random. Ours is white. What color is yours?

Our new Model Y Long Range was delivered in our driveway this morning. The odometer had 25 miles on it but, most of that was probably from the drive from the Tesla Buena Park Delivery Center. It has been a little over 8 months since the order date. So far, I haven't found any problems. There...

Received MY LR F559xxx with Matrix headlights and no License Plate Frame. Delivery person thought it was inside but, nope. No rear cover either.

So you will need to use the Tesla Superchargers until you get a charger for home. My son got his Y on Sunday and needed to borrow our Mobile Charger. We only use it when we are traveling as we have a Wall Charger at home.

I put on the Nokian One tires on my 2020 M3 LR. Only got about 25,000 with the original Michelins so went for the lower priced Nokians that are supposed to be warranted for 80,000 miles. Do a search for Nokian One on this site and get more info.

Just returned from a 2,400 mile road trip to Portland. As far as the car and tires, it was almost a perfect trip. I used the "Autopilot" and Traffic Assisted Cruise Control and there were a few phantom braking incidents. As far as the Nokian One tires, we averaged just under 253 wh/mile for...

Update: We have almost 1,400 miles on the tires and the energy usage rate is around 260 Wh/mile versus 240 with the original Michelins. Tires behave about the same as OEMs. The energy usage projections for trips has improved with the new OS update allowing for the New Tire reset. About to head...

The Nokian One for the 18" wheels are $187 at Discounttiredirect.com currently. So far, we have driven about 900 miles and the electricity usage is up to about 255 wh/mile. Handling has been fine. Control at highway speeds is fine. Planning on taking a road trip soon. Will report back...

I just purchased the Nokian One tires for our M3 LR AWD with 18" Aero wheels and installed them last week. After about 500 miles (its very early) I like the tires but, the energy used is a bit more than before. In over 25,000 miles, I used 240 wh/mile. So far, I am using almost 260 wh/mile...

I had the Nokian One tires installed on our M3 a week ago. We have only driven about 120 miles so take this info with that understanding. For the 25,100 miles we have driven on the original Michelins, we got 240wh/mile. So far, we have used about 250 wh/mile. But, I am not too surprised as...

After formatting Samsung T7 SSD on mac, I was able to verbally command to open the dashcam viewer on our Model 3 to view the recordings. But, there is still no icon on the screen, which would allow me to select the eject the drive. I have done the reboot on the car and updated to the latest...

As of today, 10/9 to 12/4.

Another EDD change for our White MY LR, with Gemini wheels. Have to wonder what is going on. Planning to change Fremont MYs to new batteries?

Some rim protection would be good as my wife has told me not to get them repaired as she will hit them again. I have to admit I have hit a curb or two so, I think 3 of the 4 have the curb rash. I try to stay about a foot away from the curb now.

Thanks for your post on the Nokian One tires for your Model 3. I have 18" Aero wheels on our 2020 Model 3 AWD. With about 24,500, it is just about time for new tires. When I had the tires rotated about 5,000 miles ago, one tire was at 5/32 and the others were at 4/32. I looked at the...

Right now our electricity rates in Southern California (Edison) ranges from .32 to .46/kwh. In the summer it will range from .33 to .53. That's why solar makes so much sense in this area. Rates are only going up as the utilities need to pay for damages from wildfires that are caused by their...

Here is some info on our electric useage and costs. Supercharging rates have gone up and we only use them on trips. I usually look at the rates at the various locations near where we need to charge and choose the lowest one. About 2 months after we got our M3, we installed solar panels (6.27...

Wow! When we first got our Model 3 in December of 2019, we used it to charge until we got the 240 volt outlet and Tesla charger installed in the garage. That was about 3 months that I needed the included cable. Sure, we don't need it that much anymore but, it will be used when we travel and...

The EDD keeps changing. Last week it was end of July to end of August and now it is August 19-October 14. Glad we are desperate for the Y as we are retired and sharing our 2020 Model 3 LR.

MY LR White/Black O.D. 1/21/22 E.D.D. June-July not long after order to December now.

Happened to me today on iPhone 12 Pro after I updated the iOS.

Here is the one I bought. Works fine and hasn't overheated when adding air to 8 tires on my 2 cars. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07JC8MB1T/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Thanks for the reply. The vent function does open all the windows about 3 inches.

Our former car, a 2012 Camry Hybrid had a key fob that allowed us to open the sunroof and all the windows to ventilate the car on a hot day before we got to it. While we were at a park this past week with our M3, I noticed the car interior temperature was 124 degrees. Sure, I could have started...

FYI, checked our Loot Box and the expiration date has been extended another month to May 17, 2021. Thanks Tesla.

Do you have a phone with ios or android? My iphone 8 has the Loot Box and it was just updated with additional miles and extended expiration date.

Looks like our expiration date was extended a year with our referral’s M3 delivery today.

Just checked the Loot Box since our referral just got their new Model 3 delivered today. It appears the miles are now good for a year!

Appreciate it if you can keep us posted. We may not be doing road trips for awhile. I just recently made a referral that led to another M3 sale so I should be getting an extension once the car is delivered. Still, one would think that an extension during this time of sheltering in place would be...

We purchased our M3 in late December of last year and received 1,000 free supercharging miles that expire 6 months after our vehicle delivery. We had planned to take a couple of road trips and would use the miles at superchargers during the trip. Due to the stay at home mandate, we will not be...

That happened to me a few nights ago. I stopped the charging with the Tesla iPhone app just before the peak rate went into effect at 4pm. I left the car plugged in. I had set up the M3 to start charging at 8am when the electricity rate is lowest. But the next morning, I checked and the car...

I saw 322 yesterday for 100%. Today, I saw it was at 321. But, note the bracket for trip is now more than 80%.

If you are in the Bay area, you may want to consider the wind. I just came back from South Orange County and the drive of 44 miles used over 50 miles of range due to very high winds. I have the M3 AWD with Aero wheel covers and tires at 44-45psi.

My wife had a similar issue with our M3 yesterday. She was able to get in the car but, couldn't get it in reverse. The car indicated there was a need for bluetooth to be active for the phone app to work. I checked her iphone 7+ and her bluetooth was on. Finally, we were able to get the car...

Thanks. Just ordered one with a code. Looking forward to getting it installed. My wife was complaining how her phone wasn’t charging with the splitter I used for the dash cam/sentry memory drive.

The Tesla website indicates the LR AWD M3 is supposed to get 322 miles of range. I haven't seen a "window sticker." I usually charge to 80% and 254 miles.

I just took my M3 with only 700 miles and just under a month of ownership into the service center for a few minor body/paint issues and asked about the lower range (315 max) showing at 100% and was told it reflects an estimate based on driving efficiency as well as other conditions. My BMW does...

Going in for service on the 21st for a few minor issues with paint, brake light opening and rear trunk adjustment and will ask about this. I understand it is a projection when I am charging and it may be based on how we are driving. We will see what happens with the updates. Thanks.

We picked up our M3 LR AWD with Aero wheels on 12.23.19 and the most I have seen on the charging screen when I slide it all the way over is 315. Right now, we only have 668 miles and the 100% charging marker is at 310 miles.

We got our M3 (White/black AWD, Aeros) this morning (ordered 11/4) at Buena Park. The traffic was light so we arrived about 30 minutes before our 9am appointment. So, we were able to find our vehicle in the lot and checked it out before meeting with the DC. I was able to talk with staff in the...

I was able to get a quote from Tesla Insurance. After getting an initial quote, I made some adjustments to the coverage level to try to get the same level of coverage as what I currently have with 21st Century. I decided to stick with 21st Century as we have another vehicle and I think the 21st...
