One bonus of the lfp is that 100% charging doesn't hurt the battery. Not only will you get 10 miles greater range, you can charge to 100% every day which will get you close to the long range 80% daily charge range. I think this is a win win.

I had this on my rear passenger side starting about a month ago. I found this thread and decided not to pursue it. THEN, the rear passenger light (the portion on the lift gate), stopped working altogether. Service came out and replaced then entire rear passenger side light (liftgate and...

It's definitely shortage related. My March 2021 Model Y is enabled.

I've seen two now in Southern California driving around. Sure look cool in person.

I doubt it will damage it at all. Once you start lifting, the pucks tend to deform quite a bit. The extra bit in the central column will likely compress fairly easy once under the car's weight. Hard to imagine it would damage anything.

if you look at the bottom left of your screen under the visualization of the car you will typically see your radio controls. Swipe these controls to the left of the screen and they will be replaced with your trip meter which will show, among other things, your Wh/mi for the current drive and...

From the arrival percentages, it seems like you could have saved yourself time by not charging to 98% before you left initially and then not staying so long at the second charger either. Once you're more confident arriving at around 10% you'll see that the car charges faster to get from there...

It would be nice too now that podcasts are going to migrate to Youtube music... considering the holiday update is rumored to be adding apple podcasts to our vehicles. We android users/Youtube subscribers exist!

Sounds like you are out of alignment. This is not usually a warranty issue.

Wow. You all must drive/stop really close to the vehicle ahead if this is happening to you. I've never seen this in the almost 3 years I've had my Model Y. I only see this when parallel parking or when pulling up to a wall for parking. Do they not teach the stopping distance rule any more...

It will take SIGNIFICANTLY longer to charge from 80-100% than 60-80%. Somewhere after 90% it will drop the amperage down from 48. I've seen it take about 1.5 hours for 90-100% alone. Unless you really need that extra 10%, I wouldn't bother. Whenever I do a road trip where I know I will...

I DID check. None of the V3s are/were active last weekend at Baker.

You bought accessories "for black friday" -- which was less than a week ago. But you threw the accessories you bought away "months ago"? Color me confused.

I was through there over Thanksgiving weekend. It DOES say 250kw max and 45 but none of the new V3s were open. The entire back half of the lot (with all the new V3s) was still taped off and non-operational. Both times I was through here over the weekend (going to LV and then returning to CA)...

Good to know. I had about 15% when I got to Baker on the way back to CA and didn't want to risk Yermo being offline. True, there's the Eddie World station in Yermo as well but that station is just as slow as Baker and has very few stalls so I opted for Baker.

Yes. Youtube music app would be great. Ideally, open up an app storefront so all these niche programs can simply be made by the companies themselves. It doesn't make sense to have Tesla working on all these individual apps.

I was here over thanksgiving weekend. It's disappointing that all the new V3s (the entire back half of the site) are not operational yet. The site was very busy both Friday morning and Saturday morning when I went through there. I got lucky and didn't have to share on Saturday with a max of...

This entire site was down the Saturday after thanksgiving.

I'd like the ability to make the left visualization smaller and an app store would be great.

Mine was down for a day or two and has come back as well.

I've gone through quite a few cabin filters between our Model 3 and Model Y. I usually just buy the regular ones. I DID once buy some more expensive ones that had little carbon balls visible on one side -- those didn't make any difference. I second the suggestion of the foam spray -- I've...

There's a pretty extensive review video posted earlier in this thread -- he loved it. I'm not sure what other users are going to add. It either works or it doesn't -- isn't that pretty much all we ask of these things? Form factor and feature-wise it is exactly the same as the gen 3 Tesla Wall...

I don't use TOU. My electrical rates are based on usage. I don't recall the specifics but I get a certain number of Kwh at $.15, the next tier is $.17 and then the last tier is $.20. Every month I make it into the last (most expensive) tier with varying amounts. My utilities' TOU rates are...

I just experienced this after doing a cabin filter change. I've done this 3-4 times before but this was the first time with the whistling. I seem to have solved it by opening the access panel where the filters go and moving them slightly and closing everything up again. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Yes it works. I'm using a Pixel 7 with the official 14 update (not beta).

I have these mats (2 in front, one for back) as well as the cargo liner and the liner for the back of the rear seats. They are awesome and worth the money. They look great, easy to clean, keep the car clean.

I always use auto as well. When the temperatures get into the triple digits though, I find that bringing up the AC controls and tapping the passenger side vent to turn that on makes the AC MUCH more effective. Otherwise, it just comes out of the driver's side and it takes a lot longer for the...

Back in 2020, I put a cover over the dashboard wood in our Model 3. After 6 months it completely warped and no longer covered all of the wood. The manufacturer (RPM Tesla) refused to do anything about it so I ended up removing it. The adhesive removed bits of the wood with it and ruined the...

I wouldn't pay $2,000 for the inductions but that's just personal preference. As others have said, when I bought mine in 2021, it was $9,000 more for performance. I bought aftermarket 19" wheels within a few weeks of ownership and then bought AB about 9 months later. The acceleration boost is...

Do you have a ton of files on there? I have the same drive and as long as I keep up with deleting videos that don't show anything, it's fine. Once the videos start piling up it takes longer and longer for it to open.

129 lb feet. I also do it myself. I got a new set of tires a few months back. Had to go back the next day because they didn't fasten the stem properly so I lost 10lbs over night in one tire. THEN, they damaged the rim when they were fixing the stem. It took a week to get the rim repaired...

If you close the app entirely, the car may not recognize you when you go to open the doors and you may have to open the app for the functionality to work. If you're ok with this, close the app. Except for some very specific and limited circumstances, I don't know why you'd close the app.

Really? I'd love to see a photo if you've got one.

Restart your phone, restart the car by holding both buttons on the wheel until the screen turns off. Occasionally, I get an issue like this but it's fixed when I turn Bluetooth off and on again with my phone. You might also want to go into your "keys" section of the car's settings and make...

It lasted all of 20 seconds in my car until I figured out how to turn it off.

I'll also point out, since you're new to the car, that in hot days here, the AC isn't very effective unless I manually go into the controls and touch the passenger vent to turn it on. Obviously, if you have a front seat passenger, you don't have to do this. By default, it will only turn on the...

If it's what everyone has been having problems with, no, a bigger screw or plastic rivet won't work. Inside the bumper there is what is called a "captive nut." Basically a nut that the bolt threads into and allows it to tighten. What happens is that it breaks loose inside and is no longer...

I think we are confusing a lot of things here. Yes, you connect the connector to WiFi during setup which sets the AMP limit and allows the connector to update the firmware. Presently, it doesn't do anything else. There is no way to add it to the Tesla app and there's no other functionality for...

I have not noticed this. Try a reboot of the car, it may resolve the issue.

It all has to do with the BMS calibration. This changes over time, changes after certain discharge situations. After seeing how wildly our battery estimate changed, I stopped worrying about it. We could have a week where the 100% miles number was very low, followed by a few days of driving...

As others have said here, there is no benefit to YOU to getting the SR version. The 4680 is typically just better because of battery density and manufacturing cost (which benefits the manufacturer). You'd be selling yourself short by going with the shorter range. Though you'll typically...

I went from 2.12 to 6.11 yesterday.

If you set each profile for a specific phone key you'll find that, 90% of the time, you'll never have to change profiles.

I had a similar problem... it seemed to be during the handoff from wifi to the car's cellular. Telling the car to forget my home's wifi network solved the closing problem.

I had this issue on our Model 3 after I changed the puddle lights in the passenger door. The connector for the light wasn't all the way clicked in. Crazily, this causes the window to go up and down that tiny bit. Once it was properly connected, the window went down the fraction of an inch...

20,000 on the AS 4s. Ended up getting some type of wood or stick stuck in the sidewall of one of them. I still had tread left on them but, rather than just replace the one tire (they didn't have AS 4s in stock) or two tires, I decided to bite the bullet and do all 4. I loved the Michelins...

It will certainly charge (I've done so) but it might not be enough to maintain a full battery while it's being used. I'd say you'd get several hours before it's a problem though.

Yeah, doesn't sound normal. I'd put in a service request for that.

I just had these installed. I can report back later with an update -- it was surprisingly hard to find any reviews for these tires online. My initial impression is that they are quieter than the Pilot Sport AS 4s that they replaced... but that could be a placebo effect.

Are you charging and is it cold?
