    Absolutely Disgusted With Tesla & Connected Solutions

    I wanted to share my experience with Tesla and Connected Solutions (installed in June 2022). Everything started off OK with my system being registered and participating right away, as far as I could tell. After a couple of events, there were suddenly no more events which I thought was very odd...

    2020 M3 Apple Music Issues

    I'm curious if others have been experiencing the same issues that I am seeing on my 2020 Model 3. I first tested it on my home WiFi network and noticed that songs have a 1-2 delay (see attached video) when starting. Not a dealbreaker but disappointing for certain. This also happens on Premium...

    Tesla 4.8kW + 2x PW Expansion

    I have an existing 6kW solar system that Tesla is expanding upon with a 4.8kW + 2x PW this coming Monday. As I understand it, Tesla has some mode of operation that allows you to use your system w/ PW to some extent prior to PTO. Will that work for me with an expansion system (and this no PW+)?

    Tesla App Reports Over (House & Grid)

    On July 7th, my mom's Tesla solar system reported nearly 350 kWh of usage by her house (and corresponding draw from the grid). Her normal peak is at most 40 kWh, though it's usually in the 20-30 kWh range. I believe that I've heard of others having an issue like this but not sure. I opened a...

    Connected Solutions Real-World Experiences (MA - National Grid / EverSource)

    Hey everyone I was hoping that folks in Massachusetts could share their real-world experiences with Connected Solutions so far this year. Asking because my mom lives in SE MA and has EverSource - her experience so far this year has been a bit disappointing. She's had overwhelming 3-hr events...

    Understanding PowerWall Roundtrip Efficiency

    I am that the PowerWall has a 90% roundtrip efficiency but am having a little trouble understanding how the PowerWall is operating. For clarity, we have two PWs so 27 kWh is the available energy - I assume that this means that more than that is used to fill it up (say 5%?) and that we then...

    Expanding My 6.0kW System - 4.08kW + 2x PW

    Hi everyone Looking to get some thoughts on this. I currently have a 6.0 kW DC solar system (24x 250W panels, installed in early 2016 by Sungevity) and am considering adding 2x PowerWalls. It occurred to me the other day that while this system generally should be able to charge the batteries...

    Pre-Conditioning kWh Usage

    Could someone provide me with how much power my 2020 M3 uses to pre-condition? I'm curious because it seems to me that I'm using a lot of power when pre-conditioning the car. Not necessarily saying that there's something wrong, just that it seems like a lot to me. Maybe I'm doing it too...

    Bluetooth Audio Streaming - Playlist Song Selection?

    I know that in the M3 v11, I can see the songs in a playlist when streaming via BT but it doesn't seem like I can choose another song except via manually forwarding through the playlist, song by song. I ask because I could have sworn that there have been a few times when I have been able to...

    Car Auto-Locks Despite Being Set Not To Do So At Home

    Good morning everyone For some reason, my Model 3 seems to be locking itself automatically after some undetermined period of time when I'm at home. I have Auto-Lock set to exclude 'Home' so it's not clear why it's doing this. I did purchase Stats for Tesla iOS app and noticed that it has some...

    Tesla App & Homelink Control

    Hi I recently had Homelink installed in my Model 3 and noticed that a Homelink button now appears under the Controls section in the Tesla app. I tried selecting this button and confirming that I want to activate it, however, the app responds saying that that there are no Homelink equipped...

    Current PowerWall Idle Power Use

    Hi everyone I've seen a number of threads on this about the forum but wanted to ask some specific questions about my mom's forthcoming installation. Tesla will be installing 24 panels that are supposed to produce ~7400 kWh along with 2x PowerWalls. The system should cover around 100$% of her...

    Mirrors Don't Auto Un-Fold When Driving Away At Home?

    Maybe I'm doing something wrong but my rear-view mirrors don't seem to unfold automatically when leaving my home. I imagine that it's supposed to do it when I shift into Drive or Reverse but nada?

    DashCam/Sentry View Interface Sluggish?

    Hi everyone Just got my Model 3 the other day and am loving it. I bought a small USB flash drive to use on the DashCam/Sentry features. I noticed that reviewing the videos seems very sluggish (seems to just "pause" when trying to access videos) Wondering if that's because it's a flash drive...
