    Glove box keep opening

    My model 3 (Vin 14xxx) started having the same issue today. The glove box stays closed for about 2 seconds and then randomly pops open. Even light pressure on the glove box pulls it open. The car now has 20k miles, and this is the first time it’s ever happened. I even tried rebooting the screen...

    Charging Model 3 via HPWC - "Voltage Too High"

    Interesting. Thanks for the info. When I had the issue, it appeared the Model 3 would ramp up to 275+ volts before stopping charging. I wonder if 269/270 is on the edge before the kill-switch is triggered. Either that, or maybe all of this was a software issue that Tesla corrected. I...

    Completely agree. It's very annoying that Blackvue is releasing firmware fixes under the same version number.

    I emailed them and received a reply in a couple hours. So far, I’ve had a good experience with them.

    Dashcam Install Help

    Thanks for your help. I went ahead and contacted the store after I posted the videos, and the friendly folks at The Dashcam Store told me there was an issue with the initial 1.007 firmware that was released. They asked me to reinstall the new 1.007 (6/14/18) firmware. After I did that, the...

    Dashcam Install Help

    Thanks for the response. I was considering a polarizing filter, but considering the amount of glare I seem to be getting, I'm not sure if a polarizing filter would make a difference. Here's a video of the front and the back on the same drive. Front: Back: This car is white, so I'm...

    Dashcam Install Help

    Has anyone had issues with windshield glare? I had my 750s installed recently, and unless it's dark outside, the picture that's recorded is essentially white. I've tried to lower the brightness to 1 without any issue. Nighttime or indoors (ie parking garages) has no problem.

    Dashcam Install Help

    For those of you that own a Blackvue Power Magic B-112 battery, is the power LED supposed to always light up when it is receiving power through the cigarette lighter? I just received mine today. When I plug it in, the 4 battery LEDs flash once and then stay off. The power LED never turns on...

    Won't Shift in to Reverse or Drive

    I never had this issue until the last 24 hours (after recently updating to 2018.18.13), when it happened twice. Usually giving the car a few minutes allow me to finally put it into reverse or drive. Rebooting the system doesn't seem to fix the problem. Car: Phone: iPhone X iOS 11.4

    Charging Model 3 via HPWC - "Voltage Too High"

    Interesting. Thank you all for the info. Is there any way of knowing how a destination charger is set up, and whether my Model 3 will charge on the destination charger, when I'm planning a trip that involves destination chargers?

    Can you provide some more information about this? I couldn't find any other posts that mentioned the same issue with the Model 3.

    Charging Model 3 via HPWC - "Voltage Too High"

    I wanted to see if anyone has seen this same error recently. I took my Model 3 to a hotel in Houston that is set up with 3 destination chargers. The hotel has a Model X as their hotel car, and they charge it at the destination chargers every night. In addition, plugshare has a checkin from...

    Just to update this thread, the long waiting game is over! I picked up my Model 3 on Wednesday at the Dallas Service Center. I didn't report anything on my due bill, and I've been enjoying the car thoroughly. This thread has been immensely helpful the last several months. In terms of things...

    VIN Assignment

    Waiting 10+ days for your VIN is the norm. My wait was about 3 weeks. What I found unusual was the wait from when you get your VIN to when the ISA contacts you. Hang in there!

    Wow, 11 days without contact? I've heard others say it can take up to 7 days, but 11 days is the longest I've heard. Keep us updated.

    Congrats. When did you config?

    Texas Hold Up!

    That's correct. It's essentially a personal loan. The loan is taken out as an auto loan, but nowhere in the agreement does it say, "this is an auto loan." However, the "use of proceeds" says the loan must be used for the intended purpose given on the application. Here's the use of proceeds...

    Lightstream does unsecured auto loans for those with qualifying credit. As a result, they don't hold a lien on your title. Instead, they deposit the money in your account, which allows you to "pay in cash" when you make your vehicle purchase.

    No problem. Let me know if you have any other questions. A few days ago, I executed the loan, so now the cash from the loan is sitting in my account waiting for Tesla to take it! :)

    Texas Hold Up!

    Hi KGTES, This is the exact approval email I used to ask Lightstream for the match. I printed out the email to PDF and sent it as an attachment to Lightstream's initial approval email. They approved the rate match within 5 minutes. I think Lightstream is aware that all credit unions require...

    I don't think it's available in Texas, at least it wasn't for me. My only options were cash or third-party loan.

    Texas Hold Up!

    In 2012, the metroplex (especially the Coppell area) had such a torrential downpour of very large hail that pretty much all the cars left outside were ruined, and nearly all the houses needed roof changes. It didn't used to be this common, but the last 10 years or so has brought serious...

    Unless anything has changed with the ramp up in production, it means that the car has been produced and has been assigned to you.

    Model 3 Aero Wheel Cap Kit

    I plan on keeping the aero covers on all the time as well, but I wanted to buy these just in case I changed my mind. At $35, it's a no-brainer, but at $50, I'll probably wait until I actually want to try them.

    Texas Hold Up!

    How did they install it? Connected directly to the 12V battery, or connected to the interior cigarette lighter?

    Check Amica. Their Texas auto insurance rates have always been the lowest for me. Model 3 pricing will be equivalent to my 2009 g37.

    Did you get a VIN yet? This is the configuration I ordered. 3/22 order date, so trying to figure out approximately when I'll receive my VIN.

    Thanks for posting these guides. It’s very helpful! In regards to your rear camera, are you concerned that the wire crossing the B pillar will interfere with the airbags? That’s my only concern.

    Supercharger - Dallas, TX - The Hill

    Stopped by again today. No significant change compared to a week ago. There are in fact 12 superchargers. I missed the last one on the right by the transformer.

    Texas Hold Up!

    Thanks. I applied for preapproval to lock in the rate in early-February. I was an early line waiter at Northpark (approx 60), so hopefully I'll get my configuration email soon (and hopefully I'll get a VIN before 60 days!).

    Texas Hold Up!

    Were you within the 60-day rate-lock in, or had your preapproval fallen out of 60 days?

    Let's talk financing rates

    For me, it seems like Equifax was not queried. Just TransUnion was queried. Not sure about Experian.
