Well, just did it and left home on a work trip and took the second j1772 adapter in my car thinking it was mine and wife doesn’t have a way to charge her car. Is there nothing that I can hang the Juicebox charging cable with the Tesla adapter attached?

Is there no way to just use Siri shortcut to control an automation for the garage door to open and close through alarm.com?

My dealer said I cannot login to MyQ because alarm.com uses it to control my garage door to know if it’s open or closed. Maybe I’m missing something. Do I need to pay for the $350 transmitter to use the MyQ feature in Tesla?

Does anyone use alarm.com and is able to use homelink through Tesla to control their garage? I contacted my Alarm rep and he said because alarm.com knows if the garage is open or closed, I can’t link MyQ to homelink to use the Tesla feature. Not sure if there is a workaround.

We went in to test drive the Y 3 weeks ago. The next day, Tesla raised the price of the Y $250. We found a Y under existing inventory that had everything we wanted (7 seater, 20” wheels) but also had the hitch. So we figured we got the hitch for $750 because the existing inventory Tesla base...

Rattling from defects I don’t think is “normal rattles”. Also with windows, failing weather stripping isn’t excluded.

I've created a couple of service requests on my car, and its becoming infuriating to get annoying things fixed. For example, all of my windows, after 2 years, have black goo stuck at the top of the window that I have to scrape off. The stripping is obviously melting onto the glass, and when I...

So really weird. Nothing in the log and this morning I went down to the car and it works normally again.

Not sure what’s going on but I can open the charge door port, and after a second it snaps shut. I’m able to charge the vehicle but the door is stuck in the charger and trying to close.

Thanks for the great write up! I currently use the plug into a 220V outlet at the rental I'm at now, but I figured I'd just get the Jukebox to charge whatever EV we get next. I think the 40A is currently available thru my power company.

Not sure what to do here but I'm having an electrician come in next month to hardwire install the wall charger for $1000. I'm looking at my power company and I can get a rebate for a Juicebox for $500, bringing the 40amp version down to $159. Is there any benefit to the Juicebox over the Tesla...

My insurance says she’s 100% at fault. Hers says I’m 100% at fault because any turning vehicle takes the risk when entering an intersection. Took my car to an auto body place and they said I’d need a new bumper because the bracket that holds the lower front driver light is broken…$2500 repair…

They were going to a concert. May have been inebriated. Driver and her bf were adamant it was my fault and they had the right of way. While stopped. At a red light…

I was texting? I had just pulled out from a parking spot with kiddo in the back. Definitely not texting.

The front driver side puck on my bumper is spinning so not sure if there could be any damage to cameras here?

It was a G35. I understand how and why the tires change pressure, but it just seems like my car does it more often than my wife's 2015 Jeep.

No way to just slap them on and off? I only commute once or twice a week to work. The magnet works on the rear quarter panel so I wouldn’t mind putting them there.

I live up in the Bay Area and commute from the East Bay to the peninsula. The temp is dropping a little bit here, but never below 55 at night (car overnights on the peninsula, and garage at home). I feel like my tire PSI in all my tires keeps dropping about 5 PSI every 3-4 mos. I've never had...

BTW, Mailed 7/1, check cashed 9/15, received 10/1

Welp, just ordered some magnets from Amazon, and our bumpers are plastic. They stick to the rear quarter panel. Is everyone actually putting the stickers on the car? I just got the new blue ones.

That’s what I got too! Seriously half of what Esurance is giving me. Not sure if it’s because I’m an executive member. then again they’re making me jump thru hurdles because I claimed both vehicle’s accumulate less than 10,000 miles a year, which they do.

Yup! Kinda crazy low.

Moved to California 2 years ago. Between the income tax hike, the housing prices, $800/6mo for car insurance and now $1000 to renew registration for 2 vehicles, I think I have enough left over to buy a 12 pack of coors light.

Same here. $724 for a 2020 LR AWD. What the hell?!?

Tesla insurance is saying that my license isn’t even valid. Whatever that means. I can’t even update it.

Wow!!! I only cycled thru esurance, progressive, amiga, state farm and AAA. I rent a home now but being in northern California I'm sitting on a huge downpayment but have renters insurance. My wife's car is paid off and I only owe 30% of what my car is worth at this point. Its definitely insane...

Thanks guys. The wild swings between insurance companies is insane. We're talking $406 for Connect to $1800 for State Farm. I'm with esurance for now at $850...

Yea, there is a lot of splicing and dicing. I read an article that said the new M3's would have the powered trunk. Called Fremont Tesla and they said its a lie and the sites are just trying to generate traffic. He also told me to stay away from the powered lift gates. The trunk and trunk on this...

I currently have esurance and for my 2020 M3 and my wife's 2014 ICE vehicle, we are paying $850 for a 250/500/100 policy. I hopped on Costco online today after upgrading to an executive membership. They gave me the same coverage with $1000 deductible and it came up to $406! I'm not sure if its...

I talked to a service tech who came out to lube my M3 trunk's trunk pistons. I brought this up, and he said that with these power lift gates, they have to splice into a cable that affects one of the rear cameras, or another computer module. Are they doing this with these lift gates? He said the...

You’re absolutely right. The difference is your monthly lease payments wouldn’t be as low as your payments are now. Nobody really plans on getting in a wreck a few months after they lease a new car, but unfortunately it happened to you. Someone else may have to respond but I’m not sure if...

I get this: You’re already on the lowest cost rate plan If you make no changes to your usage, you’ll save the most with the Home Charging EV2-A rate plan. I'm assuming its because it's using 12 mos of data and a year ago, the previous tenant had $75/mo electric bills.

I already received the rebate due the EV2 plan. I’m going to call PG&E tomorrow and see what my rates would’ve been with the other plans. The big peaks in usage posted was from charging my car. I clearly only do it 3-4x a month.

I think it may be because we have an electric stove (we rent). We have a newborn as well so we have a swing plugged in, along with his sound machine and a robot bassinet that's plugged in all the time. I'm wondering if that's what's causing it.

My electric bill has been $250 for June and July, for a 1100sqft 2br home up in the East Bay. I'm currently on EV-2A. We moved in to this place in January, and the previous tenants bills were constantly less than $100, and since I switched to this new rate, the bill has almost doubled! I barely...

I’m getting kinda of tired of Apple Music continuously starting U2 when I get in the car and Bluetooth connects. I tried using Apple shortcuts but I have to run the automation thru the banner.

you can pry it up?? Do you have a video?

There has to be input from a driver to proceed with a green light. If the car just drives thru when the light turns green with an emergency vehicle coming or someone racing thru a red light, and the car lurches forward, you’re gonna have a bad time.

Anyone else have issues with noise coming from the face spray vent?

I’ve used ONR for years, and nothing beats it! So easy and I don’t know what kind of sorcery is in it, but wiping one panel with a microfiber towel with ONR then drying it with a waffle weave towel has always given me amazing results. Every 3 washes I’ll use the optimum spray wax to coat the car...

2 months ago I went on an 8 day vacation. Didn’t want to risk battery dying at airport, so I left my car in the garage at 74%. I came back home 8 days later and car was at 73%. Now, car has been sitting in the garage for about 4 days since I took it out. It was at 56%. Today, it’s at 55%, but...

Ordered placed 11/27 Received vehicle 12/31 Application started 1/13 Approved 3/9 Check mailed 3/19 Received and deposited 3/24

So I left a garage and the gps wouldn’t update my location at all. I was on the highway, and I just kept circling down side streets and moving up and down a couple of inches. I had to pull off on the emergency shoulder to get it to work again. Anyone else deal with this? Luckily autopilot...

Just got the approval for $2500 today!

Ordered placed 11/27 Received vehicle 12/31 Application started 1/13 (didn't know I could do it with temp registration) Now 2/28 and still no update :/ It only allowed me to apply for the $2000 rebate, but I'm hoping to get the $2500 check. Just finished doing my taxes and I owe $3000 federal...

No sunglasses holder No homelink No heated steering wheel No sorted compartments so you're not throwing all your *sugar* in a giant hole PREMIUM

It sits in a garage that is pretty good at maintaining at about 55º all day. I'm up in the East Bay where it gets up to 65º during the day and 50º at night.

I have a 37 mile commute to work, where 32 miles is highway. I bought FSD which is nice, but honestly just the cruise control portion is nice. The consistent lane change requests get annoying.

So I decided to take my wife’s ICE car to the airport because we were going to fly out for a week and I was worried about battery drain. My Model 3 sat in my garage and it had 76% charge when we left, sentry mode disabled. I never checked my app while I was away, until day 4. I loaded the app...

I mean even intervention to avoid potholes would be nice.
