    What is the "Streaming" app, exactly?

    all of that including maps features like traffic but not the overall functionality. Just that you'll be offline for most maps features. Make sense?

    1 controller, 2 ports. Is it possible?

    I'm a dirty cheater. Back in the day, do you recall the gamecube system? They had a controller called "wavebird" that was simply a wireless controller that you could select from 1 of 4 frequencies to connect with the controller. This way, 4 players could all play on their own frequency or...

    Sound Deadening Model 3

    I have some leftover noico and killmat. What should I do with it? I haven't used any on the 3 yet. What would you do first?

    Model Y Sideskirts + Mud flaps

    Hey guys! Do you know if the side skirts help protect the rocker panels? I don't want to PPF them but the rocker protection via a side skirt is an appealing idea. Cheaper, too, right?

    Wrap over PPF?

    Colored PPF is a thing. It's offered now in a few options. It's much more expensive but cheaper than the total labor of wrapping for color change and then wrapping again with PPF.

    What is the "Streaming" app, exactly?

    I don't get what it is. It asks if I have an account and if I want to sign in. I'm interested in making an account but streaming is such a generic word I don't see a way to make one on google. Is streaming a Tesla specific app? Research online suggest it is based on your region and streaming...

    Can I report a phantom braking event?

    And that's only seen in service appointments or in general? Thank you. Software update happening now! Some new version just released. I wonder what's in store.

    Can I report a phantom braking event?

    So did they ever disable radar on those or not?
  11. ZapCarM3

    Can I report a phantom braking event?

    I just want Tesla to validate my unhappy feels. Darn. Well some are saying it's better with the latest version. I can't recall if my most terrible incidents were with that or the one before. Might have been a few weeks ago.

    Can I report a phantom braking event?

    So frustrating that this system confuses shadows for objects. Yeah, I don't have FSD but is there still away from me to report this way? I know they have a lot of data on this but I want mine specifically to be reported just that way I can relay a direct complaint from my experience to Tesla...

    Can I report a phantom braking event?

    Does the car track while in autopilot using cruise control or something like that, when the brake is being used via the AI? I get plenty of phantom braking events and I was wondering if there's a way to report that with some footage to go alongside it. I'd really like to trust cruise control and...

    Phantom Braking

    I get the frustration. It's happened to me. Completely senseless and very aggressive slowdown you aren't ready for. It's scary and dangerous for the drivers behind me. It makes me uncomfortable to use cruise control at all, which is really a bummer.

    Floor Mats, what to do with old ones?

    Considered this but thought it might raise the floor a bit much for my taste. Idk, might try.
  16. ZapCarM3

    Floor Mats, what to do with old ones?

    Is there any demand for OEM floor mats? I replaced them. Should I just throw them away? What do people do with their old floor mats?

    A New Idea for Glass Roof Tint

    I don't understand why they can't build one that can, even if that one isn't. I think the demand is underrated because tint on outside sounds vulnerable and fair enough but maybe on a roof, it's ok. There is also film out there designed to go on your windshield to protect it from chips and so...

    A New Idea for Glass Roof Tint

    Nice. Let us know. I gave up. I figured the concept of glass getting hot and cooled as you drive is ok. You got me again on the roof thing but let me know. Turns out ppf isn't great on glass for clarity but I bet it's decent and won't matter on a roof like it might on windshield. It's an idea...

    Horned Mirror Skull [mirror caps] and Wind Noise

    It's no longer with me. Decided to wrap the OEM mirror caps. Less drag, certainly.
  20. ZapCarM3

    Horned Mirror Skull [mirror caps] and Wind Noise

    I wonder what I'll decide officially.
  21. ZapCarM3

    Horned Mirror Skull [mirror caps] and Wind Noise

    The whole thing looks pretty cool actually. But from the inside looking at it, I just noticed the areas of drag. From the front, it doesn't look quite as such but gives the car a nice unique and aggressive look from the front end. What do you think? I thought this would be easier than a wrap...

    Horned Mirror Skull [mirror caps] and Wind Noise

    I was not prepared for such a reply.

    Horned Mirror Skull [mirror caps] and Wind Noise

    Do you guys think this creates a lot of wind noise? I hope not but I didn't do a before and after.

    AMD Ryzen & 12v Batteries now shipping in US Y & 3!!

    Actually, at this point I can't remember if she directly confirmed anything about the battery. It might have been something like if the Ryzen chip isn't in there then the 12 volt probably isn't either. But she definitely did seem extremely confident in the data she pulled up about the chip...

    AMD Ryzen & 12v Batteries now shipping in US Y & 3!!

    There's a 7 mile difference. They found this data in their system inventory display. I talked to a supervisor at the Fremont showroom. They said by Q2 they will have it all rolled out but are only doing a few right now.

    AMD Ryzen & 12v Batteries now shipping in US Y & 3!!

    I got a Vin the other day for my 3 and called in. Was told it is not equiped with either the new 12v or chip and she can tell based on range difference and part number still implying Intel chip

    Model Year 2022 Refresh M3/MY

    Do I have my terminology wrong? Some say laminated. Whatever means "thicker glass" is what I'm trying to say. Front got thicker glass on the side doors. Heard the same will come to the rear soon as well but only for the Y so far.

    Family wants to delay model Y for Giga Texas but...

    Ahhhh, that's clever. Glad I asked. This sounds like something they will have to allow as an option. Guess they could delay until their color comes up but then they will have to pay the updated costs and it's raised a few G's since then.
  29. ZapCarM3

    Family wants to delay model Y for Giga Texas but...

    My family wants to delay the Y until Giga Texas is up because they are allegedly going to build them with double pane rear and the 2 piece chassis there. However, I highly doubt this would be something you can select. How could you choose to get your car only if it's made in Texas? Probably not...

    Model Year 2022 Refresh M3/MY

    Anyone know or hear anything about this for the model 3? I hear it will happen on the Y in the USA soon-ish but I'm not sure if that's just going to be from whatever is made at the Texas factory or not.

    Reconciliation Bill and Estimated Delivery timing

    Thanks! And would this be effective from January? What do we know so far? It''s for first time buyers only?
  32. ZapCarM3

    Reconciliation Bill and Estimated Delivery timing

    Annoying times. Order now and maybe miss this incentive. Order later maybe price will be higher, still no incentive and the current incentives are gone and waitlist super long. I dunno but this kind of thinking keeps me locked into making no decisions and just waiting because I don't feel...

    Reconciliation Bill and Estimated Delivery timing

    Does anyone know, if I make most of my money under the table and therefore have very low federal taxes to pay, does this mean I don't get the money? Is it a rebate or a credit or a check they send? I'm confused as to if I will actually qualify since I owe less taxes than the alleged rebate or...

    Is regen same across all models?

    Maybe and regarding range I thought it was just battery as well.
  35. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Totally get that. But objectively it is simpler to not need to adjust that with your hand. It's all just from the foot. Response also more immediate this way.
  36. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Interesting and you'd think they might up the regen for this, no? Some say they did but some say they feel no difference and some say it's the same strength regen but the weight difference. Really mixed answers but it's nice to hear you say you notice a difference because I definitely do...
  37. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Unsure, but drove a Performance 3 the other day and it bites pretty hard. I wonder what all this really boils down to. I am certain what I am imagining is not placebo but some kind of variable that someone has a real answer to.

    MODEL Y Dimming Update

    That would be amazing if it had the dimmer. Darn. Yeah I wish the field of view was better but I use a blindspot mirror. Ideally, we had no mirrors and could use the cameras instead. Wish they would allow that already, the tech is ready but the laws are not.
  39. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Hmm so it was enough for you to easily notice?
  40. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    I agree with the part about it would be nice to have a display for regen in KW but overall I think the entire way in which the regen in Tesla operates is superior for my taste.
  41. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Or from the Tesla reps because that's who I asked and they said it doesn't, yet they do.
  42. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Yeah I was wondering this, if it would truly reveal all that data accurately or not.
  43. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    and there's zero chance that for some reason, it wouldn't register here? It's interesting to think there would only be regen from the back but the logic here is that it's because the rear motors are a permanent magnet. However, there seems to be an opportunity here to also have more regen on the...

    MODEL Y Dimming Update

    These are a replacement?
  45. ZapCarM3

    MODEL Y Dimming Update

    Should be easy to test. Disable it and see if mirror gets darker at night or not. I think it does not but I could be wrong. I feel like I would have noted this when trying to see if it did anything for my side mirrors.
  46. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    The test drive car at least slipped effortlessly. I didn't know that about track mode. Makes it slightly more tempting to get performance but unlikely I would. Every dual motor feels insanely planted. Really like it. Differences in regen matter but I think I answered my questions yesterday...
  47. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    I see. Interesting! I thought track mode mostly disabled regen. This is mostly true, right? Or else battery heats up too much? I drove in track mode and regen was very soft.
  48. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    So... Tried a few model 3's today and they all felt about the same and as they should. Maybe the other one I tried was off in some way, no way for me to tell but it was a big difference. Also no way I'll be getting standard range, the rear wheels slip way too easily on turns so I can't drive...
  49. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Gimme a break
  50. ZapCarM3

    Is regen same across all models?

    Interesting... Maybe the permanent magnet can more immediately react for regen? This is interesting. I would like to know if regen works the same on all the model 3's.
