    Charging in an Apartment Building

    Thanks for your response! Interesting, does this require WiFi to setup/maintain? Or can that be done over Bluetooth?

    Charging in an Apartment Building

    Tesla family, looking for you guidance. I’ve had my Model Y for the past 2 years and have been happily charging it in our house, inside the garage. However, we’re now considering moving, and potentially looking to move into an apartment building. All the apartment buildings in the areas...

    Always carry the key card

    I don’t carry my wallet, pay for everything using my phone or my watch. Leave all IDs in the car. The only things I carry in my pocket are my phone and lip balm. Insert lips emoji here.

    Car drives different since holiday update. You guys notice anything?

    Not directly related to the vehicle driving dynamics, but I’ve noticed the navigation has had more issues keeping up since the update. I’ll be driving and sometimes it might freeze altogether, or the time remaining may not update as I go. In the latter example, the car will continue to tell me...

    Plastidip 19" aero covers

    Looks great! I’m thinking of doing some funky colours on my geminis for the winter. How well is the plastidip holding on and how many cans did you use?

    No Premium Connectivity - Tricks?

    Sweet! That’s exactly what I’m looking for, will give it a whirl when the update’s available for me. Hopefully it’ll solve my Spotify issue. Thanks @matts99 !

    No Premium Connectivity - Tricks?

    Don’t want to pay the $13.99+tax CAD monthly for Premium Connectivity. I’ve got enough monthly subscriptions already and I don’t feel as though I’m missing out on much. Something that I do miss, is using Spotify. I liked being able to choose different playlists, artists, etc. on screen, without...

    Looking for Recommendations in Toronto: Model Y Suspension Improvements

    Does their comfort suspension really make a huge difference? Do they do the install themselves, or I have to take it to another shop? Worried about potential finger pointing if it doesn't work as advertised. I wish. Model Y fits our family's needs better than the S.

    Looking for Recommendations in Toronto: Model Y Suspension Improvements

    I love the Model Y. So much. I can't stand the incredibly firm suspension though. We have a VIN x26xxx, and it's harsh. Has anyone in the Toronto area upgraded their suspension for a more supple ride? (Not looking for performance suspension.) If so, how was your experience, were you able to...

    Anyone regret buying the Acceleration Boost for their Model Y?

    On the fence about paying the $3k CAD (taxes in) for the Acceleration Boost on the Model Y Long Range. Have heard lots of positive reviews, but I'm worried those people may be the only ones posting. Has anyone bought the upgrade and regretted it? I know that there's the option of trying it for a...

    Hitch required for decent bike rack?

    Interested in this as well. I know for sedans they offer hitches that stay in place with some straps and the trunk closing, wonder if the same is offered for the Y. Would help save the $1600 CAD for the tow package, and an additional $600 for a bike rack.

    Warming battery icon in app

    So what does it do? Does it tell you when the battery is pre-conditioned and good to go? Or that it's still warming the battery?

    Model Y TPMS Sensors in Greater Toronto Area

    Update - picked them up from the Lawrence - 180 Railside Road location. They said they have lots in stock. $454.98 after taxes. Interesting pick up experience with Covid: They didn't let me inside the service center (dress warmly if you need to go) They asked for the last 6 digits of the VIN...

    Model Y TPMS Sensors in Greater Toronto Area

    Has anyone had any luck buying a set of TPMS sensors for the Model Y in the GTA? Took my car in to get new rims yesterday, and the tire guy said that Tesla refused to sell him sensors, and that the owner of the car would need to bring in their ownership to a Tesla dealer buy them. Tried...

    Regenerative braking reduced warning

    This was beautiful. Thank you. Will definitely start up the climate control before going anywhere moving forward.

    Regenerative braking reduced warning

    New to Teslas - are we sure that turning on the climate control, does indeed warm up the battery? (And not just the cabin). I mean it makes sense that it would... I'm located in Toronto, and have also noticed quite a few bubbles showing up as it's getting colder. Scheduled departure hasn't...

    Car Inaccessible Via App After Some Time

    Yea that's the thing, my car craps out when trying to wake up. When I've driven it, or interacted with it in some way recently, it'll take 15 seconds. Otherwise it won't wake up (as seen in the above screenshot). Not a problem for me, as I seem to be within BT range most of the time, and can...

    Car Inaccessible Via App After Some Time

    I had my spotify open, and it had cell phone signal bars with a diagonal line across them and a message stating No Connection. After a few seconds it connected to WiFi though. I'm beginning to think the only reason the lock/unlock worked is because I'm connected to the car via BT from my...

    Car Inaccessible Via App After Some Time

    Appreciate the suggestion, but unfortunately this did not work. When I sit in the car, it shows 'no connection' and then within seconds connects to the WiFi. Hitting Lock/Unlock worked, thank you!

    Car Inaccessible Via App After Some Time

    Car is parked in the garage, connected to WiFi. BT and WiFi are working correctly on my phone. I have no problems driving the car, or unlocking it when I'm next to it using the app. I just can't access the car remotely via the app when it's been sitting for a few hours.

    It doesn't. Probably should've specified, Samsung S20+ Including screenshot, I've hit that refresh button a few times with no luck.

    Car Inaccessible Via App After Some Time

    When I park and walk away, the Tesla app is able to connect to the car for the first hour or so? But if I don't connect to the car for a while, it goes into a what I'm guessing is a deep sleep, and I can't access it using the app. The app spins with a 'Waking up' message and then errors out...

    Always carry the key card

    Been living on the edge. It's just so convenient. Haven't been burned yet. Has anyone ever been locked out and had to ask someone to bring them their key card?

    What's the logic behind the naming scheme? Is 2020.36 the 36th update they've sent out in 2020?

    Heads Up Display Options

    Looking forward to hearing how the Hansshow works. It's got pretty much all the information I'd be interested in seeing on my HUD. As long as there's no lag, it's easily visible, and has an easy install.

    Heads Up Display Options

    Found this on the Interwebs Does anyone have any experience installing a Heads Up Display in their model Y? How does it look, got any pics to share? How's the installation process? Does it take up a USB slot? Any HUDs you would recommend? Or are they all a waste of money?

    Home charging newb - please help

    Appreciate all the help, will wait to see what breaker I'm approved for, 30 or 40 amps, and will either go for the 14-30 or 14-50 breaker. Thanks!

    Home charging newb - please help

    That makes complete sense. Thank you! So if the electrician is able to get me a 40 amp breaker, go with the 14-50. If he can only get me a 32 amp breaker, go with the 14-30?

    Home charging newb - please help

    Thanks everyone! I took delivery of the wall connector and sent it back to Tesla. Separately I ordered a 14-50 adapter. I'm planning on getting the 14-50 receptacle installed and using the mobile connector to charge up. What's the risk? If anything it would be getting fewer amps than it can...

    Home charging newb - please help

    New to Teslas, and my first post, excuse the beginner questions. I've reached out to electricians for quotes on setting up home charging, they've all told me after looking at my electrical panel, that the biggest breaker they could install and pass inspection, is 30 or maybe 40 amps. Got super...
