    Weird clunking noise

    I love my Model 3 SR+ , and I have read the manual. Please don't yell at me. I'm getting a new noise during pre-conditioning (I live near Chicago and it's really cold this time of year). I'm attaching the file below so you can hear it. There has always been a little bit of noise from the...

    Vampire drain issue

    I have an 18-month old Model 3 SR+. When I'm at work, I park in downtown Chicago in a fully enclosed temperature-controlled garage in a high-rise office building. I am losing anywhere from 5% to 7% when parked, during my 8 hour work day. I have tried shutting off WiFI and that didn't do...

    Voice command for phone calls

    Model 3. SR+ I'm running 2021.24.4. (I have read the manual. Please don't yell at me). There are other threads on this topic but they are all pretty old. In fact in some, they indicate that their problems have been resolved. But I am having a current issue that is intermittent...

    New Range Question

    It's me again. Model 3 SR+. I had been charging to 80%. A Tesla technician told me I should go ahead and start charging to 90%, and just not charge it every night at home----let it go a few days. So I did. Using 77% of my battery, down to 13%, I went only 135 miles, over about 3 days. That...

    Strange development---need your input please

    This morning I had something weird happen with my Model 3. I always set it to 80%, and have it set to begin charging at 1am. This works well. This morning I came out to drive to work, and the battery was at 62%. That is more than where it was when I pulled in last night, but far short of...

    Scheduled departure anomaly

    I charge my model 3 to 80%. I have a scheduled departure time of 8:30am. This morning I left a little late, at about 8:50. I came out, and as I was unplugging my car, noticed it was charged to only 77%. (BTW, the second i backed out onto the driveway, it immediately dropped to 76%). Any...

    Whipping a dead horse

    I know that's what many on this forum will say I am doing. But I have now had my car (SR+) for 3 months. I love it, but I am not enjoying it, because I just worry constantly about the fact that my range is so low. There is no other way to assess it. It's low. Let me explain. As you can see...

    Still baffled by range issue

    I love my car (SR+) and I have read the manual. Please don't flame me. I have posted elsewhere, but I am still concerned by range. One bit of background. I got it in April, and actually it already had 600 miles on it when I got it. (It was a demonstrator at the dealer and yes, there was a...

    Vacation charging

    Hi everyone, I'm leaving for a week and my Model 3 will be in the garage. Do I leave the car plugged in while I'm gone or charge it fully before I leave and then leave it unplugged? I have read the manual. Thanks very much!

    Model 3 Charging Question

    I'm a new Model 3 Owner. I have read the manual. I'm just confused about one thing, Scheduled Charging vs. Scheduled Departure. I'm still waiting for my utility, ComEd, to switch me over to hourly pricing. But they tell me their best rates are between 1 and 5am. So here's the question: I...

    Entertainment system baffles me

    I’m a new Model 3 owner and love my car. But the entertainment system really baffles me. I signed up for streaming. Under “streaming” it has several suggested “stations” — like “Tesla favorites” or “Classic Rock”. I keep hearing about Slacker. Is this it? It also says at the bottom “Have a...
