    High speed window wind noise revisited

    Thanks! Everyone needs to do this to make the Tesla as quiet as other cars on the highway.

    Leaking Trunk

    There's a technical service bulletin that says to seal the inside and outside of the trunk lid seams and put in thicker gaskets behind the tailamps. There is also a new trunk gasket for the model 3, but that is only to help with water rolling off the back window. Of course Tesla will tell you...

    Leaking in trunk but not from the gasket- broken weld or hinge holes leaking?

    That's the problem with Tesla: they spend more time making aquarium video games, than making cars that actually have to be driven on regular roads in real environmental conditions with other traffic.

    2021 MYP Trunk Leak - bad service experiences

    My Model 3 trunk is filled with water. No fix.

    Leaking in trunk but not from the gasket- broken weld or hinge holes leaking?

    My trunk full of water. Tesla refuses to fix. Water gets inside the trunk lid and then sloshes into the trunk. Maybe new gaskets needed for tail light like in service bulletin.

    Rear trunk insulation pad soaked - advice needed

    My trunk is filled with rain. Tesla refuses to fix it. They just replace the trunk liner time after time under warranty hoping I will die.

    Trunk drain plug?

    The trunk on my 2020 Model 3 in warranty is full of water. Tesla refuses to fix it. Obviously no drain hole, however I have seen rubber plugs in other photos that could perhaps be removed.

    Water in trunk. Like inside the metal trunk body panel...

    Same type issue in 2020 Model 3 under waranty. Water gets into trunk lid from rain. Then when I drive around it sloshes into the trunk and fills it up. Tesla has so far refused to fix it.

    Supercharger - Hood River, OR - Anchor Way

    I guess it's an existing street, however I'm not sure a two-way existing street is wide enough.

    Supercharger - Hood River, OR - Anchor Way

    16 new superchargers working in Hood River on Anchor Way. I charged there last night. Whoever lays out the concrete work, curbs, spacing the parking spots, etc. is not very smart - very tight and a bunch of wheels are gonna get curbed.

    2021 Model 3 Tire Fell Off - Get your bolts checked ASAP

    I've had a clunking sound in the front end when starting from a stop (in forward or reverse) for several months now. Stock 2020 Model 3 with stock 18" wheels. You mean Tesla would charge me to inspect it to determine what is wrong to cause the noise? I'm afraid to take it in based on the fact...

    Looks like they are removing stalks from the 3/Y

    Latest controls from the teenage minds at Tesla. Acceleration and braking is by voice command (giddy-up or whoa) which is only recognized 50% of the time, but a software update is promised every month, so don't worry and just hold on. The computer doesn't display anything relevant to controlling...

    Looks like they are removing stalks from the 3/Y

    After all user-friendly controls are removed, and we can no longer easily go where we want, Musk will push us around like in a baby stroller.

    Looks like they are removing stalks from the 3/Y

    I believe Tesla is considering removing the steering wheel and accelerator and brake pedal next.

    Set of 18" Aero Wheels, bad tires (Seattle, WA)

    Hi. Do you think those tires have another several months of wear left on them so I could use them the rest of this winter? What happens with the tire with the bubble, does it vibrate the car? Would I have to buy at least two more tires (that way using two of these and two new ones)? Are...

    Actual capacity used traveling from ~Fremont bridge to Mt Hood Meadows OR and back round trip?

    No, my car is a 2020 and doesn’t have a heat pump. And i had my girlfriend with me so we used the heater. Range isn’t the problem in long range, having winter tires is the only problem.

    Actual capacity used traveling from ~Fremont bridge to Mt Hood Meadows OR and back round trip?

    I went up to Timberline from St. Johns and back, during a bad ice storm when it was probably 15F at night, and I didn't worry about charging to more than 90% and may have even been as low as 80% when I started. Cars were stuck going up to Timberline, and while waiting for them to be pushed off...

    Actual capacity used traveling from ~Fremont bridge to Mt Hood Meadows OR and back round trip?

    Well, if you're trying to decide between the standard range and long range, you need to get the long range. The advertised Tesla range is bullshit marketing. After 35,000 miles my range has dropped from the advertised 322 to 285. So the 272 mi RWD is really a 240 mi car. Then, if it's snowing...

    Recapping my 3500 mile road trip frustrations

    I agree with everything you said as I make long trips in my Model 3. Exasperating company that doesn't really know what the purpose of a car is for.

    Actual capacity used traveling from ~Fremont bridge to Mt Hood Meadows OR and back round trip?

    I've driven up in winter in my LR M3 to stay at Timberline Lodge. I never gave range a second thought. Probably charged to 80% or 90% before going. This was in snow, and I also stopped at Government Camp to eat. You know going downhill you will recoup mileage? In my Volt I ended up with nearly...

    FS - OEM 18"s with TPMS (433Mhz), Aero Covers and Nokian Hakkapalitta R3 Snow Tires with little use....(WA)

    Hi. Did you notice any difference with the bigger (245) tires vs. stock (235) size? Are these tires balanced already on these wheels? I think the tires are made in 2018 is that possible, by the code on the tire (I think 36th month of 2018)? Thanks!

    Loud clunking sound heard, and felt, from the front end when going straight

    I'm also having a single very loud clunk or pop in the front end - when starting out - in forward or reverse or turning, or when going over a road undulation at slow speed. It almost seems like something broke off or came loose every time it happens. Someone said there's a recall for this in the...

    Model 3 Black Screen when Unlocked caused by T5 SSD?!?!

    My 2020 Model 3 LR (delivered Dec 2019) has periodic black screen when getting in the car. I have never had, nor do I now have, any storage in the car for cameras. I'm going to ask for a warranty fix.

    2019 Model 3, Screen Black out

    The screen on my 2020 (delivered Dec 2019) continues to be black sporadically when I get in. I'm going to ask for warranty replacement. I'll let you know what happens. Totally unacceptable in a road vehicle.

    cheap acoustic foam sunroof (insulation) project

    I like it! I’m looking to make a stiffer, thinner, fabric-covered foam insert I can put up there to block the sun and heat and reflect less noise. Maybe foam glued to foam board or super thin cabinetry plywood, with reflective film on the top and the same fabric as the interior on the bottom...

    Backup camera went black

    My 2020 Model 3 (delivered Dec 2019) had the black backup camera most of the day on multiple drives. Is there a fix for this. No reboots would bring it back.

    2019 Model 3, Screen Black out

    My 2020 Model 3 (delivered Dec 2019) had the black screen for the first time today when getting in the car. Is the only fix to get a new screen under warranty from Tesla?

    PSA: Trunk closing bumper damage

    My car purchased Dec 2019 does the same thing. Did Tesla adjust the trunk lid and repair the paint damage? Thanks!
