    HW3.0 upgrade for basic AP owners now free?

    Even though they promised that the car had all the hardware needed or FSD when it was sold...

    Will The Revolutionary Tesla Windshield Wiper Debut On The Cybertruck?

    Plus in the mirror you're focussing on what you're looking at, which is probably roughly the same distance away as what you're looking at through the windscreen. With a screen you need to shift your eyes' focus to the distance to the screen. That said, there are advantages to screens too...

    What was stolen?

    Weird scratches... Could whatever was attached to that wire have come loose, then bounced around behind the car as you drove along, hitting the bumper and making the scratches, before it finally came off? Is the wire definitely cleanly cut rather than pulled out of something?

    Forward and reverse

    I was amazed when I discovered that about the US a few years ago. Here in the UK bicycles all have the front brake on the right, and the rear on the left. Not sure how it is in other countries around the world.

    Glove Box Jammed

    No, I think they're saying that theirs had been plugged back together incorrectly. So when the computer tried to feed voltage to the motor to open the glovebox, instead that voltage turned up at the speaker and it made a clicking noise. I guess the speaker in question also wouldn't have been...

    Full matrix headlight functionality just approved by NHTSA!

    Proper matrix headlights are pretty cool if done properly. I remember driving a few years ago, and couldn't work out why my car was lighting the verges in front of me so well all of a sudden when my lights were dipped because there were oncoming cars. Then finally twigged that it was the car...

    Be aware! Missing Control Arm Nut: Potential Safety Issue

    Is that "users chiming in who get the basics wrong consistently" aimed at me?! Yes, clearly with the nut missing and the balljoint bolt loose and wearing a bigger hole in the upright, then it's now in completely the wrong place and is affecting camber, hence the OP's observation. My point was...

    Be aware! Missing Control Arm Nut: Potential Safety Issue

    I don't think these nuts are on the tie rods despite the thread title, but even if they were then you wouldn't loosen them to adjust tracking. And they really don't look like they're adjustable for camber/castor adjustments. So I think they're only going to get undone if the ball joint itself is...

    Be aware! Missing Control Arm Nut: Potential Safety Issue

    I'm not understanding what "regular Nord-lock" is compared to the wedge. I thought that video was talking about the wedge washer. But either way when they say "soft" I think they mean rubber or wood - cast aluminium should be hard enough for the washer to dig into, and I don't imagine that nut...

    Frunk latch fail on freeway

    What's your point? Because other manufacturers have been known to have this issue with some of their models, it's fine for Tesla to as well and they don't need to change anything?

    External bolt on the MY Rotor hats?

    That'd still need some clearance space though. Most cars using an allen key or torx screw have a countersunk hole in the disc and a countersunk screw, so that it's totally flush. Running without the bolt wouldn't be an issue though - as others have said, it's only to hold the disc in place...

    Delivery of my Model Y held up :(

    I was wondering exactly the same! I was even going to post this, but then couldn't find the photos I'd seen before. I hope it is this, because that seat alignment didn't look good in the pictures I'd seen - if it turns out that it's a specific fault they're correcting, rather than it being what...

    Tesla chose to do what it does best: half-ass it

    Agreed - they could just be upfront about that, stop saying that all cars come with all the hardware needed for FSD (or explicitly say all HW except the FSD computer, which is easily updated at no extra charge when purchasing FSD), and then there'd be no issue. This isn't relevant. At least, it...

    Ordering without FSD=2.5 computers?

    It's also still on their website right now, at least in the UK: Again, it doesn't say "cars with FSD option", it says every Model 3. And it doesn't say can be upgraded to have the hardware, it says comes standard with the hardware and can have FSD added through a software update. Granted it...
