    False positive chimes

    Thanks for the sanity check. I thought I was hearing things, or trying to blame the radio. Haven't seen any screen flashes, just the odd chime or two.

    Supercharging

    The day I took delivery, I also swung by the local SC - ended up seeing a charge of like $6 on the screen afterwards. Since then I've charged for real a few times and it always show 0$. Might be just a bit of lag in the system. I don't recall ever seeing that $6 show up anywhere on a CC...

    Carpet vs all weather floor mats, and which ones?

    Carpet wears down and looks funky with age, so I like having mats. However, while it snows here, I didn't want my car looking like the wife's Subaru, so shied away from those super heavy duty, deep-sided ones and went with these from Evannex - EVANNEX All-Weather Floor Mats for Tesla Model 3 I...

    Model 3 Autopilot suddenly tried to turn off

    This is pretty common. Locally for me, one highway had good continuous dashed lines at each exit merge (on or off) and AP does great. Another highway often shorts the dashes both on and off, and the car will wobble towards the momentarily "wider" lane. Just something to be ready for - especially...

    maps are zoomed out too far when not using navigation (all of a sudden)

    I saw this yesterday. Normally nav is just on - either calendar based or w/e, but driving locally yesterday, my daughter noted "your car doesn't know where it is." and sure enough, it had zoomed out a really far overview with my little red marker meaninglessly in the middle of it. She hit the...

    Opinions on Chill mode?

    I used to flip Chill mode on for some morning commutes - it seemed to even out the AP acceleration. And for a while there I was doing some minor hypermiling to get a feel for how efficient I could be in winter. Then I had to pull off a tricky merge, stood on the pedal to get in front of a semi...

    Snippiness 2.0

    Being demanding on a free internet forum regularly correlates to real life angry assholes. Attacking people who question your partial information that's never been observed anywhere else adds further support to the troll supposition. Are you really claiming that these wires get so hot as to...

    Snippiness 2.0

    I have never heard of such a thing in a Tesla or any other car. My first thought is that water is involved somewhere - maybe OP is using the defroster to de-frost, a little melts at the lines first, so what's observed is simple refraction through the water versus warping of glass. Given the...

    Current Best Music Source Option

    Can anyone else help confirm the formatting may make a difference? My SSD is typical (I think) with 2 partitions - one for DashCam, other for music, both formatted FAT32. But like @holmgang this setup never remembers what was playing.

    Camera miscalibrated

    I noted the other day, while driving, the display appears to be delayed about 1 second. Not scientific at all, but while on AP and cruising in the left lane, I would kind of watch when my car front/rear aligned with vehicles being passed and it seemed to be consistently one second behind...

    How can this be....?

    Yeah, my initial question would be the #s you're pulling - the 'real' odometer reading at the bottom of the card, or are you just summing the trip counters? There could be rounding errors - but that'd be like 1-2 miles/week difference and lost in the noise. If you're not, I'd suggest to track...

    Location based charging limit? Home vs. work.

    I have a vaguely similar situation to OP, though just a 110v/12a at home, free charging at work, 60 mile round trip. I'm not too concerned about range, so want to minimize my cost by charging up at work. My solution so far in working around the limited scheduler is to set the max to 80%...

    Model 3, AWD Tires

    I'd rather be on stock 18s in cold/snow than wreck winter rubber on Florida highways.

    FM radio not great

    Thanks guys! I'll try out the non-HD signal and also look into TuneIn. I know my Alexa uses that when I "play NPR" at her, so I must have an account set up somewhere.

    FM radio not great

    I know most of you folks have moved onto streaming/usb music, but I still like to listen to NPR commuting to work. I've found the FM radio a bit disappointing - some fuzziness on open highways, digital noises when I get in town, overall lower volume than other inputs. Never noticed this in my...

    PA state inspection (south central PA)

    Old thread, I know -- but its what I found when digging for this info and wanted to update it for other Central PA folks. Lewis Auto Care moved to Enola - 700A S Enola Rd, 717-307-9890. After calling, they squeezed me in today to get my sticker. Very nice guys, and a very high-tech capable...

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    Just got a text to reschedule -- moving earlier!!! New delivery date is this Friday - a whole weekend sooner. I'm so giddy I can barely type.

    LR AWD Waiting Room

    I'm a week out from scheduled delivery and still have only seen the VIN in source code, not on page. I was waiting for it to 'officially' appear before calling State Farm to get insurance all squared away. But I called today with the VIN I have, and they were able to set most everything up...

    Premium Connectivity cost $9.99/month for many Model 3 versions

    FYI, during my recent test drive (ordered 11/23, delivery 12/23) the sales guy did tell me that the 'premium connectivity' is currently free, but that it will cost $100/yr after the first year. He was a little off vs $10/month, but at least for new buyers the expectation to pay for this service...

    Anyone have any experience with the Devon PA dealer?

    UPDATE: Just got my delivery text! Scheduled pickup in Devon 12/23 (They had Christmas day times open on the scheduling calendar, which was interesting to see)

    Anyone have any experience with the Devon PA dealer?

    I test drove at Devon 11/23 and ordered that day; finalized trade-in and online stuff (except insurance bit) 11/26. Found by VIN in the source yesterday, but not officially on the page yet. Hoping to hear soon to schedule delivery. [happy to see PA deliveries in the waiting room threads!] My SA...
