    Charger rate dropping to 16amp after being 32amp

    Hello guys, I have had my model Y for 3 years using a 240 outlet in my garage with a portable tesla charger and it always charged at 32amps until about 3 months ago. I would never get any warnings on why. There were no changes to the installation and it was installed by a licensed electrician 3...

    Loud thud upon brake hold, Tesla won’t help

    Hello everyone, I know there’s a lot of discussion about sorts of noises from the suspension. For the past year my model YP has been having issues under parking lot speed when I apply the brakes or the auto hold engages, I hear and feel a loud thud coming from the rear. I took it to Tesla twice...

    Tesla service damaged my car, advise needed

    Hello guys, I’ll keep it short and to the point. Looking for advice. My 2020 MYP has been at service for warranty work. The SA called to let me know one of their 3rd party vendors bumped into it sustaining a scratch to the bumper and passenger fender. They promised to fix it but here is the...

    Where is the love for the MYP?!

    thats a good point, he just said "sure" lol I think there is a youtube video of a MYP on a time attack that got 2nd place after a porshe gt3. (could be mistaken) but either way it looked strange that an SUV was even top 5 and there were plenty high performance modified ICE cars. The entire...

    Where is the love for the MYP?!

    So I usually tend to buy the performance model for any care. That being said I love my MYP and actually got it the 2nd day of release, VIN 10XX. I live in Cali so I wasnt bothered by the summer tires I can rock all year and my other car is a BMW so I didnt notice the suspension being stiff at...

    Tesla Releases $2,000 Model Y Acceleration Boost, Shaves Half Second

    yeah I agree, I drove my friends model 3P and noticed it pulls way harder off the line. Makes sense being that the Y is heavier and less aerodynamic

    Tesla Releases $2,000 Model Y Acceleration Boost, Shaves Half Second

    I read an article that musk said track mode is coming, I wouldnt be surprised. I also think some more OTA updates will make the LR and P a bit quicker later down the line.

    Acceleration Boost Purchased

    2k is definitely a steal and mad bang fir your buck. I think they will make the LR even quicker down the line with an update. Elon musk said the P will have track mode tho so I think they will tinker with it some more as well. Tesla always holds back and no one knows for sure if anything is...

    Vendor Show Off Your Aftermarket Model Y Wheels

    ur right, maybe using the word lame was a poor choice. I didn’t mean to offend anyone with their aftermarket wheels wheels, I’m happy if they are happy. I just think they all look less aggressive, maybe because everyone is focused on downsizing for efficiency and acceleration performance. I’m...

    Vendor Show Off Your Aftermarket Model Y Wheels

    damn low key alot of these aftermarket wheels look pretty lame compared to the ubers. Makes the car look less aggressive too. Sorry to be ball busting but ill just say it as it is. Ill lose 15-20 miles a charge if my car will look nice, its worth it lol

    Got my MYP wrapped today..

    Thanks! Im actually enjoying it more and more everyday! some days its white, others is grey lol
  13. M

    Got my MYP wrapped today..

    I totally get it. They haven’t seen it in person tho and that’s when you can really see the shade of grey esp when the sun hits it or if it’s next to a white car

    Got my MYP wrapped today..

    Because when I remove the wrap in 2-3 years, ill have a mint metallic blue Model Y. I think the blue was an extra $1000 so it wasnt too bad and I think its worth it since Im planning on keeping the car for a long time.

    Got my MYP wrapped today..

    I went with “fashion grey” wrap. It’s not really that grey. It looks white with a shade of grey. If I can go back, I would have went with a darker grey but the wife picked this color and she’s happy with it. Most of my friends are telling me “why didn’t you just get a white car” but in person it...

    Model Y beats a c8 stringray drag race

    Wow I’m surprised nearly every comment is hating on the fact that a family SUV is able to even compete against a stingray Corvette come on guys let’s be real. Give the Tesla credit when credit is due.

    Model Y beats a c8 stringray drag race

    I stumbled across this video on YouTube of a mode Y performance nearly beating the new corvette stingray. On paper the stingray puts down supercar numbers. I’m quite surprised esp because the Y pulled away on the top end. I know it’s just one race but still, I’m impressed

    Tesla Releases $2,000 Model Y Acceleration Boost, Shaves Half Second

    “Manual boost controller”?? I haven’t heard that used in ages. Hahah turbos cars came long ways, it’s all about ECU flashes via smartphone apps now days. Increases boost, fueling and timing. You can even make the exhaust burble if that’s your thing lol 2k is a bargain to shave half a second...

    Track mode Model Y performance

    I know it’s an old article but I haven’t seen any posts about it, do you mind sharing any because I can’t find it

    Track mode Model Y performance

    How do you guys feel about having track mode on the model Y performance? It seems like a pretty cool option to have but being that it’s a crossover SUV and having the option to control the drive train sounds pretty scary but fun at the same time. Apparently it will be released eventually...

    According to Stats (app) my PUP is currently the most efficient MY

    Wow that’s pretty good. I have a PUP with the 21s and I’m nowhere near you but I’ve never drive in on chill mode and neither does my wife. We don’t race it either but we enjoy the pedal response. I average 300wh/mi so not bad. I tried it in chill mode and it was terrible. Felt like my car was...

    Don't need PPF? Think again.

    I got quoted 1500 to PPF my bumper and partial hood. I think it cost less to repaint it with premium paid so I don’t know. I think I’ll just ceramic coat for now

    Tesla threw is MY owners a bone - Performance Boost is now 4.2 seconds

    Agree! I have the MYP and my tires are halfway done and its only been 8k miles. I only drive on sport. I dont floor it from a stop anymore though since ive noticed crazy tire wear. hahaha The fastest 0-60 I have logged is 3.35 sec with rollout with the 21in wheels. I am planning on getting...

    Seat Fold Button

    My driver side backseat drop super slow but it works. I took it to Tesla and apparently it’s normal. So idk. I rarely fold them to care

    2020.40.8 Performance MY no range update

    Ok I don’t feel bad, I thought I was the only one who didn’t get an increase in range. I got a PUP with 7500 miles showing 278 on full charge. I normally don’t believe that number as I truly barely get 250. So o switched to percentage to relieve my pain and it’s been well.

    Y with 21 inch 7k miles and rear tires almost worn out?

    Mine are wearing down pretty fast as well. 21s and I always drive in sport but not like I’m racing it. I doubt it will last 10k. I had a flat recently. $450 to replace one rear tire. Crazy. Next time going forged 20s Square set up to save money, get better performance and little Range.

    Performance Boost Available

    That’s good to hear everything reaction. Hopefully Tesla can release a FREE upgrade for the MYP like they did for the M3P twice lol I wouldn’t mind some extra hp. It’s addictive for sure!
  31. M

    Acceleration Boost option for Model Y available?

    not yet, I hope Tesla resleases a software update for the MYP to make it quicked from 0-10. I feel that its software limited.

    Acceleration Boost option for Model Y available?

    How do you get 300 cash back?

    Acceleration Boost option for Model Y available?

    Agree, me and my wife both prefer to drive on sport mode because we enjoy the pedal response but we dont race it all the time. Noticed that range is unchanged when compared to chill mode.

    Rear ended :(

    My new MY was rear ended! : TeslaModelY happened to this poor lady too, I guess only 6k in damages
  35. M

    Rear ended :(

    Btw care to share the source regarding gap insurance not needed when not at fault? I can’t find that info anywhere
  36. M

    Rear ended :(

    If you have full coverage, tour insurance will do all that leg work and you just pay your deductible which will be reimbursed later or just have the 2 insurances deal with it. The best approach is getting a police report so there is no he said she said bs.
  37. M

    Rear ended :(

    well that’s good to know. If no supercharging, I’ll definitely not buy it if it’s salvaged. Thanks for telling me!
  38. M

    Rear ended :(

    really? Well that’s great news because I do live in CA and it wasn’t my fault. I also got a police report in case the driver changes his mind when he gives his statement to the insurance. as for DV, I didn’t know that either, I will most definitely include that. thanks so much!
  39. M

    Rear ended :(

    Oh I’m well aware of that. I know car accidents suck esp when you are completely innocent, you still get screwed. That’s why you drain every penny for medical claims with a good lawyer but even then it’s a huge hassle but IMO that’s the only way to even out. unless you total it, buy it back...

    Rear ended :(

    well glad that worked out for you. How bad was the damage, can you show me a pic? I don’t have gap insurance, so hopefully I won’t have to go there. Also, I know insurance companies will ALWAYS low ball the car so I’ll be on the lookout for that.
  41. M

    Rear ended :(

    Yeah I read that. My hatch is definitely ruined, and the bumper has minor damaged that can probably be touched up. Surprisingly the lift gate still works like normal but doesn’t close all the way. Hopefully the cost doesn’t exceed whatever formula this insurance company uses. Otherwise I’ll be...

    Rear ended :(

    Ah that suck ! – Cams are the best unfortunately I didn’t have a memory card installed

    Rear ended :(

    actually it will help the situation. Police report is important. When I was 18 I was rear ended, and didn’t get a police report. The other driver admitted fault at the scene but changed their story during the claim so it was my word against theirs. But If I had gotten a police report, they use...

    Rear ended :(

    Los Angeles, why?
  45. M

    Rear ended :(

    oh I went beyond that, I called police and got a report with their statement and their information just in case they try to twist things later on. They seemed respectful and upset about it esp since I had my kids in the car. Whatever, mistakes happen. I just hope it’s not a total because I don’t...

    Rear ended :(

    Hey guys, today we were parked at a light and some idiot wasn’t paying attention and rear ended me and my wife. Luckily no one was injured. I’m really upset though because I know I’m screwed either way since I owe about $60,000 on the car and surprisingly I’ve seen cars with Little damage get...

    What real range are you getting on a full charge?

    awesome I’ll watch this later thanks!

    What real range are you getting on a full charge?

    that’s pretty impressive. Do you drive on sport or chill? Also is it mainly city or freeway?

    What real range are you getting on a full charge?

    What app is that? I would like to test mine out. how does your car feel with 20in wheels? Quicker at all? I want to get some 20s..
