    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    So.. I live in Southern California where it almost never gets below 40 degrees. I swapped out the pirelli pzeros for Michelins pilot sport 4 a/s. Both are equipped with noise foam and the sound is slightly different but equivalent. The only reason why I went with all season is for the rare times...

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    OP checking in, still looking forward to the official release and contributing to get to page 200 Will be a difficult choice between a used Plaid S at 70k if the M3L is priced at 60k

    Anybody else that hasn't gotten the prompt to upgrade to UWB for the phone key yet?

    No one has received the update yet but Tesla was teasing it on social media yesterday: Because UWB allows for precise ("centimeter level accuracy" per Tesla) movement and location, I think Tesla is programming it so that you stand still in a certain location without moving for a predetermined...

    Anybody else that hasn't gotten the prompt to upgrade to UWB for the phone key yet?

    The spring software update is going to enable automatic trunk opening on UWB equipped cars

    Anybody else that hasn't gotten the prompt to upgrade to UWB for the phone key yet?

    Have had UWB for a few weeks now. The X has been 100% reliable with the phone key and the door cracks open at a more appropriate time as I get closer. Definitely more consistent than bluetooth alone.

    Tint Roundup: OEM vs Spectra Photosync IRD vs 3M Crystalline

    I was never able to find a direct comparison between Photosync Spectra IRD and 3M Crystalline so I decided to run the test myself. I'm using a solar power meter that measures irradiance 67 degree partly cloudy day, Southern California No glass: 1151 W/m2 Model X Model Y Front windshield...

    Same, I feel like it's related to the Plaid powertrain

    2022 Used Model X Plaid or 2024 New Model X Non Plaid

    Just pay a bit more and get a new Plaid with 20s. You'll be getting a 107-112k car for 95k (free exterior/interior color upgrade, FSD xfer)

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    Weird, wonder if it’s an s vs x thing. After 2024.2.7, I closed the Tesla app, opened it and got the notification to update the phone key. It also showed up in the release notes. Car is def hw4

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    Solid decision making, hope you get a perfect car with front camera & RGB ambient lights
  16. D

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    I feel the opposite way. It took about 2 months to get used to the turn signals on the X (not my daily, it's the family car). I was constantly looking down to make sure I was hitting the right direction. The gear change was easy. We have the wheel too and have no issues with seeing the gauge...

    Are any of the tricks to force a software update real?

    So my FSD trial expired today. The notification popped up midday and I did a manual software update check and immediately got 2024 firmware. Now have working UWB key

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    The car will 100% have HW4 as everything made from Summer 2023 forward has been HW4. whether it has a front bumper camera or ambient lighting is another story

    How well does phone key work compared to the old key fob?

    iPhone 15 Pro and Apple Watch Ultra also have programmable "action" physical buttons that you can just program to press and unlock the car

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    Friend brought a Aventador SVJ Roadster over this past weekend and said the Plaid X made the 600k Lambo feel slow. I also drove a friend's quad motor R1S and it felt about as fast as a MYP up to 50, nowhere close to the MXP

    Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

    It's already 3 days into March. Someone should've taken delivery of a March build S/X in northern california
  22. D

    Any indications that front bumper camera can be retrofitted later on HW4 2023 MS?

    That’s a great point. We’ll see how this plays out

    Any indications that front bumper camera can be retrofitted later on HW4 2023 MS?

    Cross posted in model x forum, make of it what you will. I hope it’s true but not holding my breath

    Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

    On Reddit. Make of it what you will

    Whatever happened to the front bumper camera and ambient lighting?

    I would assume all X's throughout the world are similar as they're only produced at the Fremont factory in left hand drive configuration. No X production in Germany or China gigafactories

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    They’re saying front camera and ambient lighting

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    I dont disagree, I dislike that the 2023 S isn't getting it when the X is, perhaps I should mark it as informative instead

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    In Pedals and Steering, have you set the acceleration mode to Plaid? It defaults to sport I think

    Software updates on 2024 X vs Model Y/3

    Y: 3 updates this month X: still on 2023 firmware (has FSD trial)
  30. D

    2024 VINs?

    Or get matched with the same car that was on hold or an order reject like so many others It's fine though, just another 2 weeks. Can always cancel the order then and wait for the car to arrive for others with the features you're waiting for and order then

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    On the 3 and Y it's cheaper to subscribe to MYQ rather than install the homelink module assuming you keep the car for 5 years Not only that, the auto open and close is aware of your garage status so if you pull up in your driveway and the garage is already open, it's not going to close it on...

    2017 to 2024: Did they fix...

    Neighbor hates their 7 seat model because there's no leg room and wish they got a 6 seater FWDs have been fine for us but I haven't had the car during a hot summer day yet

    Increased radio/audio bugs...

    Still happening on 2024.2.6. for mej (loadplaybck error, choose source, etc)

    Are any of the tricks to force a software update real?

    Do you have fsd? My Y without fsd has gotten two 2024 updates and my X with the FSD trial is still stuck on the 2023 holiday update. I want to try the UWB key out
  35. D

    Increased radio/audio bugs...

    Definitely on 2024.2.2.1 on hw3 Y. It’s updating to 2.6 now so we’ll see if that fixes it. Right now Apple Music starts maybe half the time. The y has gotten two 2024 updates and the X is still on the 2023 update which has been good with music

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    This was posted in the bluetooth key not working thread, definitely looking forward to it

    Phone key doesn't always connect

    Anyone try UWB instead of Bluetooth yet? I have not seen a single report and I’m still waiting for my car to update in order to enable it

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    True red MX love with two in the garage

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    I'm hoping the hardware is on the Y as well. The X opens consistently. The Y sometimes (usually when most inconvenient - hands full and bad weather) doesn't open until the phone is out of my pocket.

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    Some people are reporting that the upgrade your phone key option is showing up for their first gen Model 3. Another report of it showing up for a person with Model Y on 24.2.2 - these are all anecdotal I'll update if it pops up for my 23 X or 22 Y AND it shows up on the UWB devices seen on the...

    X Owner test drives new Model X Dual-Motor - Jan2024

    So many people complain about the doors but they don't frustrate me. It seems like the motors help you move them if you give them 1 second before trying to open them. The only time it was annoying was when it was raining buckets and I was trying to get in the car ASAP

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    I’m excited to try it out. Too bad the X is on 2023.44.30.8

    Prediction: Model X price will be reduced to $78K in January 2024

    multiple systems disabled

    This is so weird.. My MXP just did this for the first time today too and it only happens sometimes when putting it into reverse. I think it's a software issue with the recent update. Traction control disabled, stability control disabled, automatic emergency braking disabled, reduced steering...

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    I have the opposite problem. It's misty and a setting slightly lower than the I setting would be nice but instead it wipes like it's a downpour. Today, I left it on I and was tricked into thinking the auto setting was working well... only to find it was on a manual setting 5 minutes into the drive

    Motor/Gear Noise on 2023 Model X?

    Motor/Gear Noise on 2023 Model X?

    I have a MYP and the MXP motors are louder at lower speed than the Y. There's that annoying vibration in the first minute or two that doesn't exist on the Y as well.
