    Correct car selected in the Tesla App

    I have two M3s one in Australia and the other in NZ. When I start the app it often defaults to the Oz vehicle. I'm currently in NZ and want to see the local car. How can I avoid having to switch?

    No Google Maps traffic information

    I've got Premium connectivity. A few months ago I lost Entertainment and Maps trafgic display. I finally spoke to Tesla and they fooled the Entertainment into rebooting ( by changing Language). But traffic info (the red and orange markings on the roads) remained off. Any ideas on how to fix...

    Car alarm

    My car (Polly) has "alarmed" only a couple of times and then for valid reasons. However, about 3 months ago we went to a local cafe for the first time and in the middle of a luscious pie and trimmings and a Latte the alarm went off. I raced out and it stopped. I don't think there was a Sentry...

    Schedule charge start

    Just installed 2020.48.35.5 but the previous version had same problem. I have always had " Schedule Charge Start" option on and start time was 9.00 pm I controlled the stop time (to span my cheaper power plan) by limiting the charge percentage and noting the estimated time to finish. But now...

    Galaxy A10 Bluetooth problems

    My Samsung Galaxy A10 has worked as a phone key 98% of the time. If it has refused to unlock the M3 one solution was to turn Bluetooth off then on. However just yesterday it has basically stopped working. I tried rebooting the car then rebooting the phone (but it reboots automatically twice a...

    Phone key frustratingly pernickity

    Suddenly, my phone key, which usually exhibits the epitome of good manners has gone rogue. Trying the door handle results in a message on the screen "Use key card to unlock". Now I must say that this has happened very occasionally in the past and I have wondered whether there is some counter...

    Keeping the windscreen clear

    I am in a moderate climate country, no big extremes. It's summer now. I'm a bit annoyed that I can't seem to get the climate options right that will stop my screen from slightly fogging on the inside. There are lots of 'buttons' and air directions but nothing works. I have to resort to turning...

    2017 Model S 3G

    I have just (today) taken delivery of a 2017 Model S for my son who is returning to New Zealand in a few weeks. I noticed that Maps refreshed quite slowly after a Zoom and saw that the car was reporting 3G. Later, when I requested Navigation to show me the way from Wellington to Auckland...

    "Deep Rain" improvements [post about auto wipers]

    I think the AI that controls the wipers is called Deep Rain. For me it works pretty well but my cavil is that if the rain is light it doesn't wipe fast enough. So before the next wipe the vision is obscured by, say, 20%. This is a bit annoying and my wife is always saying "wipers please", which...

    Deleting Sentry Videos

    When I park on a city street I can return to the message "x sentry mode events" where x can be a large number (max for me is 32)! They are usually just of people walking past. I do a quick circuit of the car to see that nothing is awry and so the 32 videos can be deleted. But how? It's a pain...

    Green Circle - Locked message

    Last night I got into my M3 using key phone. Everything normal but on the screen there was a message - a green circle and the word 'Locked'. Message erased after starting. What does this mean? Thanks

    TACC following distance

    I think under the AutoPilot menu there was a variable that set the following distance (I had it set to 5 which seemed to obey the '2 second' rule at higher speeds). But now I can't find it - has it been supplanted? I did notice a few revisions ago that braking got more aggressive and it didn't...

    YouTube

    I have Premium Connectivity. When I start the Web browser the default URL is YouTube which looks fine. But the displayed message is to the effect that the address is wrong (sorry, I have neglected to note it). So if you "reload" you don't go to YouTube. But if you delete the https:// bit...

    Passengers in M3 alone!

    I have "Walk Away Locking" set on. I parked at a Supermarket and walked away!. Polly (my M3) locked up and turned off the screen. My passenger got nervous and opened the door and all hell broke loose. Polly threw a fit and started honking the horn. I'm on 2020.20.12. Is this a bug?

    Bug Report

    Am I dreaming or is Bug Report super quick about ending your report? If I say "Bug Report" and pause slightly (to gather my scattered thoughts then it says, ok, you're done and closes. It seems to me as if you always have to say quickly "Bug report, my report is that bug report closes off too...

    Itzhak Perlman and the Glovebox

    If you are watching Itzhak Perlman playing the Bruch Violin Concerto how do you open the glovebox? :-)

    Regenerative braking temporarily off.

    Have just (about 2 weeks ago) started getting a message on first startup of the day to the effect that "regen is temporarily not operational". This is a normal message if the battery is fully charged but not the case here. Regen actually is operational immediately (as it should be) and the...

    Windows found open

    I sometimes find a window open a little when I return to where I parked it. I don't know how this happens - is it me inadvertently touching the lever (or my passenger) or is there a software glitch? Just now I went into the garage (had been out driving) and I found the right rear window down a...

    Tesla App connectivity issues

    My App (on Android) often does not connect - "Vehicle connection error" (or similar). In my case I think that the problem is that though the car is connected to my Wifi, the signal in my garage is weak. Sometimes it connects sometimes not. However, when the car is not connected to any Wifi...
