Today noticed a very small dent /pinch above my rear wheels on driver's side. Not sure when and how it happened because I usually check my car and sentry after parking in public lots but I could have missed it- it's small. I already have an appointment at the Tesla Service center for another...

Thanks! It didn't stay on the carpet- thanks to the all weather mats. Plus it wasn't a lot of water-logged so mostly dried out by the time I got home. don't think I'd be able to take a picture for the service appointment. Might have to wait until next time I guess?

Hi. I picked up my TM3 AWD a couple of weeks ago... Today I went for the touchless car was for the first time. After I was done, I stepped out of the car and noticed some water under the brake and accelerator pedals. Pretty sure it wasn't there before the wash.It wasn't much water but I'm...

Gotcha! Didn't realize that. I'll try that again. Thanks

This is super helpful. Thanks a lot for the clarification.

I recently got.my Model 3 and I have tried to use supercharger (same one) a couple of times. It is a 250 kW supercharger but I don't get anything more than 150-160kw. Couple of times when I have charged battery has been about 40%- could that be a reason?

I tr i try to do that but shortly after I start driving the car switched back to LTE not sure why

Sorry I'm sure this has been asked before but I can find a relevant post. Do I need to be connected to even get the notification that my car is ready to download the software update? Or is the car able to get the update via it's LTE and to install the update I need to connect to WiFi. Thanks

Yes i tried on a freeway! It didn't show up even on I-287.

I just picked up my TM3 with FSD. The autopilot calibrated after about 30mi and was working okay. I also downloaded an update (now on 2020.32.3). But when I navigate to some place AP work's but I don't see the "Navigate on AP" blue icon. I also turned it on in my AP settings but I checked it...

The 5-20 plug in my apartment parking and they have said that I cannot change the plug to 6-20 since the electric wiring won't support it

Do we need a NJ license to apply for the rebate? I live in NJ (recently moved) but my driver's license is from IL. Can I submit my apartment lease or utility bill to show I'm NJ resident?

I have been reading that new TM3 are getting wireless charging and USB-C. I was wondering if all the ports are USB-C or only the rear ones? If the front ones are usb c as well do you buy a new flash drive for dash cam?

Gotcha. Thanks for confirming.

Got it. I'll check with my delivery center and confirm. Thanks

Thanks for clarifying. Where can I find my MVPA then? Will it show up once I have made the payment?

I recently got a delivery confirmation for my Model 3 and my VIN is shown in a "Lending agreement". However I have seen pictures others have posted for a different looking document and that's titled "MVPA". I'm financing via Tesla. Wondering what's the difference between the two

Few weeks? Did you car arrive earlier than expected or did you pick a different car?

I just scheduled a delivery for 09/10. But I am wondering if anyone has gotten an update that their car came earlier than expected and then they were able to pick up the car sooner? Not sure how often that happens, and if car comes earlier then why would Tesla keep it instead of delivering it...

Really appreciate the feedback here. I quite like the idea of thinking in terms of % and Wh. It'll take a bit to get used to it coming from ICE. They probably do have a power source, but they won't allow me to put a new line to my spot. Also i'm in a rental and don't think it makes sense to...

Same I had you call my delivery advisor. VIN still didn't show up in my account page. He told me car is enough route to Chicago. I'm in NJ.

Tesla website says a 5-20 outlet at 110/120v will give up to 4mph charge. But I have read on a few places people reporting getting up to 7mph or even 8mph charge. That is a big difference (double)! wanted to see from people who frequently use a 5-20 outlet to charge. I live in a condo with...

I agree. I saw the speed and it was more than enough for most of my needs. Unfortunately my apartment garage only has a 5-20 plug. So I’ll have to charge at 120/110 only.

Once VIN is assigned how long does it take for Tesla to deliver cars on the East coast? I was reading it can take up to 3 weeks. My current estimate is two weeks. Wondering if anybody got it sooner and 3 weeks is a “low expectation” type thing.

Not yet. SA said ill get that when the car reaches Chicago. Though SA texted me the vin already.

I'm in NJ

Just called my Sales representative and he gave me my VIN!!! He said it's on the way and should expect a delivery around Sept 8th. Nothing on my account or source code yet. Ordered 07/25, LR AWD White/Blk, 18" aero w/FSD. Excited!!

that is very strange and sucks. I believe most of the june orders we fulfilled by June 30th. Did you make any last minute changes to your configuration? I have seen some orders delayed because of that.

thank you so much...exactly what I was looking for...

I mostly do highway driving, and usually drive my ICE cars at about 70-85mph depending on traffic and speed limits. Sometimes I’d even touch 90 or over, but not for very long. I understand that at high speeds there is more drag / air resistance so it’ll impact range (mpg in ICE). But how much...

Anyone from July orders hoping to get their VINs this week? Fingers crossed and really hoping for the VIN this week.

Didn't know Sales is open on Sunday. Maybe not in NJ. Mine told me last week to expect VIN during the week. Nothing yet..Ordered 7/25

Anyone got any updates over the weekend? I saw some folks got VIN on the east coast.. But very few Not sure if tesla assigns VINs over the weekend

Good to see that some folks in North America and East coast have started getting there VINs. It’s getting close....

That’s awesome. I have been trying to look for one too...which config did you find? I ordered LR AWD White/Blk FSD.

thanks all for good insights. I have done a test drive but didn't try this out- how is the acceleration from say 40 to 60 to 50 to 70. For instances when you need to pass someone. is it like other ICE cars or much faster?

Hi. A new (to-be) Model 3 LR owner. I'm not a speed junkie but I'm wondering how does frequent flooring the pedal impact long term battery health? I understand that more frequently I push the more it'll impact my range...but I'm wondering how it impacts the long term battery health. I'm sure...

Ordered 07/25 white LR AWD. Got 5-8 week text on 08/06...today got another automated text that I should expect delivery in 2-5 weeks. several folks got similar texts: 1-4 weeks or 2-5 weeks. Hopefully VINs will be coming in next week or so.

I asked my Sales agent directly if uploading any insurance information would make any difference to my case (i don't have an insurance right now and cannot upload one). She mentioned that it won't make a difference to getting the VIN assigned. However, as soon as I have the VIN, I would be...

07/27

I called my Sales Center to check-in and they said they are looking up on factory schedule, then told me that production should be this week, and I should expect a VIN this week and if I don't have one until Mon-Tue then to follow up and call again, they will check. Sounds optimistic, but don't...

I'm in NJ. So need a What do folks upload if one does not have a current insurance policy? Just wait for the VIN and hope you get it one day, or upload a temporary quote?

I don’t have a car currently hence don’t have insurance. Tesla Sales told me I will need the VIN to get insurance. That’s completely opposite of what I have heard. Not sure what to do now. Ordered 7/25 and still waiting for VIN.

Looks like folks in the US have been waiting since mid July. Broad consensus is that Tesla ships all cars ex-US in the begining of the quarter (to make delivery numbers for that quarter), and then switch to US deliveries towards the end of the quarter. most people here are expecting their...

It’s second half of the quarter. So based on what I’ve been seeing here hopefully Tesla will start making US deliveries. Let’s see if folks start getting VINs starting next week.

Just got a text from "operations team" at the Sales center I placed the order: Hi xxx, This is xxx from the Operations Team in Paramus, NJ. I hope all is well! We're still waiting for a vehicle to be assigned to your account. Once that happens, we'll have a clearer ETA for you. Thank you for...

Wondering if people get updates on their VIN over the weekend? The second half of quarter begins...hoping US VIN matches will become more common.

I was told that financing via Tesla stays good for 90 days.
