We should have the option for 19" wheels. For me, it's not performance related. Where I live, the roads are littered with potholes.

Tesla, if you're listening, give us back our console data port. The M3 LR AWD is a $60k "premium" car. Hell, there are $25k cars that have this.

Back to the Revamped M3. I believe Tesla is going to try to bring the costs down in order to get more models to qualify for the $7500 tax credit. You can expect more features being removed or perhaps available as options, but Tesla usually tries to keep things simple in order to reduce...

Not directed at you....it's the entire 2 pages preceding this. .WTF...I thought this thread was about the revamped M3.

It used to be that way. There was low, medium, high. Tesla removed it in 2021 or 2022. I never understood that.

I definitely noticed and continue to notice that the regen is weaker than in the past and at times it seems like it isn't doing it at all. I posted this in another thread yesterday, as it seems that there are several threads on this subject. It is unnerving at times because you get used to one...

I also have the M3 AWD. I have also noticed this the last 2 months, expecially going downhill on the freeway. In the past, as soon as I lifted off the accelerator, the car would begin to slow down. Now I have to consistently apply the brakes. I haven't changed any settings. The car is...

I'm also experiencing regen braking issues, but in my case, it seems like regen braking isn't working at all. For example, going 65 miles downhill after coming out of the Caldecott Tunnel, I lift of the accellerator and it seems as if there is no regen at all. It feels like the car is still...

Mine did too - 2022 LR.

Picked up my LR today. I will be making some minor changes to the car over the next couple weeks and will then post an after picture.

Picked her up today. VIN 194xxx AMD Ryzen - Yes Li-Ion Aux Battery - Yes

Picked her up today as scheduled. There were a couple minor panel gap issues but not enough to reject the car. I didn't find any paint issues.

I'm scheduled to pick up my M3LR in SF Bay Area tomorrow. Does anyone know if the USB drive in the glove compartment is pre-formatted?

Not at all. Originally placed order mid-October but placed a hold until 1/2/22 as I was hoping for tax credits bill to pass. Obviously, I've given up on that. Configuration: M3LR, white/black interior, 18' aero, no FSD.

I just got my VIN...so excited. Where do I find the additional vehicle info?

How did you manage that? I thought AB was not available for MY.

Nice. Congrats!

I also ordered one on Thursday. I just kept checking the site daily. I never received an email notification.

I must be missing something...what does this thread do for us? It tells us that a few dozen cars got the Ryzen, but it doesn't tell you how many have the Intel or what the percentage is. I think the spreadsheet from Twitter, even with it's problems, is a better tracking tool...

Thanks. I'll check with the SC. I signed up for email notification over a week ago but haven't received notification. I keep checking the site daily.

Has anyone been able to get the adapter lately? I've been checking for a couple weeks now and it's always out of stock. Sellers on Amazon and Ebay try to gouge you by charging you 2 - 3 times as much. I'm starting to worry now because my car's EDD is 2/18 - 3/18.

That doesn’t look right.

But what about those who want to play lossless audio? This would mean you'd have to remove the sentry drive in order to plug in a music USB. Teslas have a really nice audio system, but you can't use it to play hi-fi music??? Makes no sense at all. Come on Tesla. WTF?

Makes sense. I thought it was weird that there appears to be no impact to US models.

Really? You don't see this as a Tesla Roadside problem? Where was the "Assistance" part of this ordeal? How exactly did they assist? Did they call the Highway Patrol or tow truck to help out the client? No loaner tires available? This is inexcusable to me. I admit that towing and roadside...

I wonder why there haven't been any range estimate changes in the US as a result of the new AMD CPU like what was reported in Australia. Has anyone in the US received the notice that the range will be lower? Is it different battery chemistry that's being effected by new AMD chip?

Not consistently. It's still hit and miss right now.

It appears that the MY is getting all the early love. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1CU18pcKvjfsnMeMm6MVVyQn8oHl8fzeC3VFIglx65QE/htmlview#gid=1125362702

Per the tracking spreadsheet on Twitter (take it with a grain of salt), there are a few cars receiving the updated features. It appears that the Model Y is getting a bit more love than the 3 in receiving the updates.

Does the 2022 M3 still have ambient lighting, puddle lights and door pocket lights?

I'm not familiar with previous ones. You're probably right, though. 35% of respondents didn't know if they had dual pane glass? I mean, all you have to do is open the door.

Found this tracking spreadsheet on Twitter. There appear to be at least 4 reports of laminated (dual pane) rear windows. Many responded that they didn't know. 2022 Tesla Updates Tracker (Responses)

If anyone takes delivery of M3 with laminated rear glass in next few days/weeks, please post here.

This is great. Now I'm just hoping for the laminated rear windows before I take delivery in Feb/March.

Did you pick up your car? If so, congrats! So what does it have and not have. Anxious as mine should be delivered sometime in January.

Congrats! So, can you tell us if it had any of the new features? How many speakers?

That isn't how I read it. Yes, the examples are demo cars, but they are 2021 demos. This is the very first sentence: Tesla has been adding a strange new warning about putting battery packs as old as 2017 in brand new 2021 Model 3 vehicles for sale.

There's an article in Electrek today saying that Tesla has installed battery packs/cells as old as 2017 in some 2021 Model 3s. WTF? https://electrek.co/2021/12/20/tesla-strange-warning-putting-2017-battery-packs-brand-new-cars/

Sorry, I don't understand the chart. I thought boost (AB) was only available with the LR and not the P? What am I missing?

Any reports of M3LR getting a motor update?

Are these changes for MIC cars? For example, the new AMD chip for Infotainment only applies to MIC cars, at least so far. I imagine these changes will come to the US at some future date. Some of these changes will be great additions. Moderator: Can this be posted in the "What's Next for...

Some folks tend to forget that the EV tax credit isn't only for Tesla. There are cheaper alternatives out there, including used vehicles, and this would help those who can't afford $50k but maybe could afford $25k to $35k with the incentive.

Thanks for the additional info. I also want to look at the car before I give them all the money...so it will be a cashiers check. Which model did you get? I placed an order for the LR in October but put a hold on it until January. I'm hoping the EV incentives get sorted out by EOY. I just...

Thanks. It seems crazy to me that the alternative is to give their service provider (can't recall the name off-hand) your bank ID and PW. It's going to be loads of fun when there's a data breach at that company. Congrats on the purchase, BTW.

Sorry if this has been asked a zillion times: Does Tesla still accept cashiers checks for payment? If so, are there any special instructions or things to watch out for? Asking for a friend. Thanks.

At least the base M3 is getting some nice additional features to go along with the crazy price increases. I don't recall seeing any new features for 2022 to go along with the price increases for the LR and P models.

Base Model 3 will now have heated steering wheel and rear seats as standard. https://insideevs.com/features/547431/tesla-model3-heated-steering-wheel/

Any pics of the completed install?

Pics of the install, please.

Check if the 19' wheels are selected as that appears to be the new default. The range actually increased a bit with the 18' Aero wheels. They are now showing less range with the 19" wheels.
