    Tires! A Cautionary Tale

    Total BS. I purchased the plug kit on Amazon and carry it with me in car. This belief that Tesla tires are somehow special needs to stop. They are not. They can be repaired. The foam has nothing to do with a plug or "ruining the tool." Do not use slime. only use a plug and many more flat-free...

    PPF interfering with Radar Signal

    It also could have been 2 layers (PPF and decal) causing the issue--especially with the opaque decal.

    General "Should I Wait for Upgrades" Thread

    Just get the car. This whole thread is so much about "Keeping up with the Jones'" but the Jones' are already enjoying their cars while everyone watches them drive by. There will ALWAYS be something better. Always.

    My Y losing 3% battery every night

    I have a 2021 MY (VIN82XXX). I have no issues with battery drain at all. I plug in with a target SOC to 80% every night. In the am, and actually most of the day when I'm not driving, SOC doesn't lose more than 1%. I have scheduled charging on, not scheduled departure. No sentry mode on at home...

    I have the auto-dimming mirrors (VIN82XXX) so Suma not an option for me.

    Dim Back-up lights

    My bad. Correct, I was implying the darkness of the backup camera itself, which can be adjusted via software update. I guess I’ve never been outside my car when backing to notice the actual illumination. The side cameras are good and bright with no illumination so clearly an aperture setting...

    Dim Back-up lights

    I think so...they can adjust the aperature/exposure for the camera...similar to how you can on a phone camera. It's annoying, though.

    Thanks. I have been looking at that. I’m just terrified of breaking the tabs....car only has 800 miles on it! :)

    Model Y Service Bulletins

    Anyone notice a TSB for the MY driver's mirror? On the forum for that topic someone mentions "Tesla Toolbox article #3114200?"

    Crack in Roof

    Update: Finally had my SC appointment yesterday. They did try and charge me the $1600+, but one message through the app took care of that! Now, I also had them check the side view mirror adjustment and got the "within spec" response, so that fight will continue...different thread.

    Autopilot Concerns

    And just finished downloading and installing 2020.48.30 so I really have the “latest” although the last update was very underwhelming.

    Autopilot Concerns

    I wish I had video, but I realized that my dash cam was disabled (another issue) after I upgraded. Software 2020.48.26, so was running the latest. Really disappointing. This is a recently paved road, with nice, bright and clean lines, there was no break, no dash, no intersection. 45mph speed...

    Autopilot Concerns

    Totally agree. I don’t have FSD, don’t want FSD. The car can’t handle this simple task well at all. We’re a long way away from secure FSD. And based on the amount of complaining about the car not being able to publicly fart, I’m not sure many people should have FSD.

    Autopilot Concerns

    So I’ve had my MY AWD LR for about 2 weeks, now. I haven’t really used autopilot much at all, just getting used to the car. Tried today on a clear stretch of 2 lane, well marked road and not only experienced the phantom braking 2x in a stretch of less than 2 miles but the second time had phantom...

    Heated seats no longer controllable in app?

    Scheduled pre-conditioning won't include the seats as they are independent from the heat pump/circulation required to heat the battery.

    MY Long Range "Boominess" sound, same with Performance version??

    Yes...I have noticed it as well. Not a huge issue, and interestingly, my passengers don't seem to notice. I was wondering if it has to do with my ride height (I'm 6'5" and even with seat lowered all the way, my head is considerably higher in the cabin. I was wondering if it's the lack of sound...

    Crack in Roof

    One thing is certain. There will be a scene. There is absolutely zero external evidence of an impact and it’s in the descending portion of the roof, so impossible for road debris to have even struck it.

    Crack in Roof

    Aftrer a flawless delivery experience, today's first trip with rear seat passengers and clear, sunny skies, my daughter noticed a crack in my roof! Photos attached. It's not noticeable from the outside and can't feel it from the inside. Seems to be a fault interior to the glass...maybe a...

    Delivery inspection process

    No. Inspection and access were no problem. In fact the payment process was never even a topic when scheduling pick up. I just ignored the payment reminder on my account, scheduled my pick up, showed up, inspected, and then SA asked at end whether I was paying online or with check. No biggie...

    2021 Model Y Sideview Mirrors Limited Adjustability

    Same issue. I, also, am 6' 5". The drivers mirror is definitely an issue. It wasn't as bad or noticeable on test drive pre-auto dimming mirrors. My 827XX is an issue. I find myself really straining to see traffic on drivers side. I will report the issue as well. It's a problem.

    Breaking news: Free 2021 Supercharging for 3s and Ys!

    Totally agree with this. It’s no different than free maintenance on any ice car. There’s very little cost to manufacturer. As far as “mental value” sure. It’s much higher. But when you have plans for several, multi-thousand mile road trips coming up, the value is high. To me. To each his own.

    No worries. Home charging and work charging are certainly primary. This just opens up plans to visit some family (hopefully) that we obviously haven't seen this year. Road trips!

    Vibration

    Here's a good resource from Tirerack on how to ID if your tires contain noise-reducing foam. https://www.tirerack.com/tires/tiretech/techpage.jsp?techid=336

    Vibration

    The rebalancing process (I would go to a tire store vs SC) would diagnose immediately if it was a balance issue. And if weights didn't solve it then likely foam issue. Tire warranty should cover. If balancing by a qualified tech solved it on machine, then there is something else going on.

    Keeping Model Y Window Defrost and battery management during winter

    I see this so often, especially in Uber rides and friends' cars--not a Tesla issue. In the winter, using AC is critical to remove the moisture from inside the cabin. I see people turn the fresh air fan on high bringing in super cold air that mixes with the warm moist air inside the cabin and...

    Trip Planner

    So I will soon be a MY owner! Got my VIN this week...827XX. No delivery scheduled, yet, but of course I have been exploring the forums and trip planners. My question for this thread is, do you run ABRP through the onboard browser or your phone?

    Pick up Model Y today, couple observations

    Enjoy the car! The car sickness is weird..my family had the exact opposite. Car sickness usually occurs when there isn't enough visibility! In fact my wife, who gets terribly motion sick, was able to ride in the back set on our test drive and enjoyed it! Don't compare to other vehicles--this is...

    VIN Search and Chrome Extension?

    I received my VIN on 11/25. 827XX! Waiting for delivery, now. I'm hoping that by delaying this far, I have successfully managed to get through a bulk of the worst fit/finish issues...we'll see. I'll report back!

    SC Install of Homelink at Pickup?

    Realize it's not installed. Already purchased and box is sitting in my house. It's not saving consumers any money by not having it installed at factory. We're paying $300 after the fact for a part that's costing Tesla less than $5, for sure. Oh well...it is what it is. Glad to pay the $300. My...

    SC Install of Homelink at Pickup?

    Thanks. I have programmed Homelink on each car I have ever owned that had it...not a difficult process...I do thin it's ridiculous that it needs to be "installed" on a $60K car, but that ground has already been plowed...hopefully with my VIN that I just received, 827XX, I may have avoided many...

    Car died 1200 miles from home... ugh

    Car died 1200 miles from home... ugh
