    Power trunk retrofit causing car awake

    That's me - 2019 Model 3 out of warranty end of Sept 2023, and I had Tesla install the powered trunk retrofit in Oct 2023. I paid $1000 for Tesla to diagnose and replace VCFRONT to try to correct the HVAC issue but am I glad I found this thread! I was going to get Tesla to replace my blower...

    Any solution to the excess wind noise from the Tesla roof racks?

    For the Tesla Roof Rack, you have to keep the rubber inserts inside the rails to cut down on the wind noise. Cut out the portion of the rubber inserts where you need to mount your stuff and leave the rest of the inserts in. I once took out all of the rubber inserts and the wind whistling noise...

    Dome Lights & Ambient Lights Randomly Shut Off

    I have a 2019 Performance Model 3, and since around the beginning of the year (around Feb or 2020.x.x firmware), my dome lights and ambient lights have randomly turned off. I mean the toggles on the "lights" panel in the touch screen just turns themselves off after a while (i.e. a few days to a...

    Costco: QuickJack BL-7000SLX online - $1499 shipped - Work on your Tesla in isolation

    It says "Hydraulic fluid not included". What does that mean? I have to buy fluid and fill it myself? I'm a bit of a noob but I know when techs service hydraulic brakes they need to bleed the lines and have special equipment to do that? Is the lack of a fluid going to be a problem for a noob...

    Roof Rack Accessories in Montréal

    You can buy directly from Thule.ca. They actually ship from Granby, QC so if you're already in Quebec shipping times will be super fast. It generally takes about 2 days to get to Toronto.

    Premium Connectivity in Canada

    I used to pay CAD$300 per year to BMW for BMW Connected Services just to get app access and live traffic. This is a better deal.

    model 3 dual motor long range/range

    I'm in Canada driving in freezing temperatures with a Performance on 20 inch winter tires and I get 250 Wh/km, which is around 400 Wh/mile. So there are lots of factors that can decrease range.

    Ontario passes anti-ICEing law

    Keep in mind that while it got Royal Assent on Dec 12, the Act doesn't come into force until it's proclaimed by the Lieutenant Governor. Here's the actual bill at the Legislature: Reserved Parking for Electric Vehicle Charging Act, 2019

    Tesla Winter Wheel and Tire Package Delivery Time?

    Cost of ownership of buying Model 3 vs keeping my M235i.

    I got the Performance and absolutely no regrets. The power is amazing. It's a ~3.1 sec car, versus ~4.4 sec for the AWD and even slower for the SR+. Money-wise, the Performance Model 3 is about the same as a BMW M340i. But you get M3 level acceleration. Go for the Performance Model 3.

    Cost of ownership of buying Model 3 vs keeping my M235i.

    I got the Performance Model 3 to replace my 2015 M235i. Love the acceleration and the technology, but I do miss the BMW's better build quality. Slamming my Model 3's car door sounds nothing like slamming my car door on my BMW. Hehe, my old car is here if anyone wants to take a look: 2015 BMW...

    Winter driving advice, winter tire choices, etc.

    That's good for you. I ordered in mid-Oct 2019 so hopefully I'll get a call from my service centre soon.

    Performance Waiting Room

    From the order tracking spreadsheet, people who got their cars delivered in June got VINs in that range. I know Tesla doesn't do sequential VINs, but VINs aren't totally randomized so they do increase in number as time goes by. I'm expecting a VIN in the KF470XXX to KF490XXX range for this...

    MCU always had problems and finally failed. Costing a fortune

    Big repairs like this are really concerning for would-be buyers of used out of warranty Teslas and can really lower resale value. In your case Tesla should absolutely cover the entire cost, since the issue was identified while in warranty.

    Does anyone know the documented Model 3 price history?

    Having a price history is useful for used car valuations. A general rule of thumb is that cars typically depreciate 50% in 3 years, give or take.

    Model 3 FSD Upgrade Price is $4,000CAD

    Thanks, good point. My car is still pending delivery but I ordered on March 20 so AP is $4000 and FSD is $6600 on top of that. Apparently if I want FSD after delivery it's $9200 (Woah!). I wish my FSD is $3000 but no dice.

    M3115 20" Forged Tesla Wheel Group Buy

    That's a pretty good deal but I want to wait until my car arrives. Is it US$3300 delivered to my door in Ontario, then I pay 13% HST to the shipper on delivery? Can I choose metallic gray instead of black or does the entire order have to be the same colour? Also can I pay Tsportline directly...

    Tesla Model 3 initial impressions (and compare to. BMW 5-series)

    Short-Term TSLA Price Movements - 2014

    I'm not a technicals expert, so correct me if I'm wrong. According to this chart TSLA never even came close to hitting the 200 day ma in the last 12 months. So the fact that it's sitting there now (strong support tomorrow or not) shows weakness, right?

    Q2 non-GAAP net income was $26 million, or $0.20 per share. This excludes lease accounting, certain non-cash items, and one-time charges of $16 million associated with the payoff of our DoE loan nine years early. Including all these items, GAAP net loss was $31 million or $(0.26) per share.
