    Generac PwrCell

    I'm considering the LG RESU option because of long lead times and slow Tesla design plans. I was given the contact from a customer who had the RESU placed on their system. He was saying he doesn't have control over the battery software and that he has to contact his installer to make setting...

    MyQ Smart Garage Door opener with EVE

    That’s great. Just ordered mine. That’s the main thing I wanted to be sure it wouldn’t be dangerous for the kids.

    Alternative to HomeLink module

    Will it activate the open/close switch if the garage is already open? For example, if my wife is already in the garage doing something and has it opened already. Is it smart enough to know the signal doesn’t need to be sent when it’s already open.

    MyQ Smart Garage Door opener with EVE

    Cool good to know. Does the unit sense open / close status and adjust accordingly? For example, my wife and kids sometimes to art projects in the garage. If the door is already open, will it still trigger the switch causing the door to close potentially on either an object or person? Or would it...

    MyQ Smart Garage Door opener with EVE

    How do you like Tailwind? There’s no added subscription costs, right? Do you have to run wire to the wall button control or just the garage door sensors? Installation seemed like more work so I’ve been hesitant.

    Hit and Run, video help

    That sucks. I hate parking near other people. I guess Front plates aren’t such a bad idea after all even though it seems a lot of Tesla owners don’t like them.

    Tesla EV Tax Credits coming back?

    What happens to pricing when you remove just FSD? I thought some people were having the price reset to current pricing when they modified their configuration (color, 5 or 7 seater, LR or P)? Would he lose his initial pricing if Tesla raises their prices?

    New Tesla Y defective - what would you do?

    Your only option is to follow the warranty route. They’re not going to give you a new car unless it’s deemed a lemon after their attempts to warranty the vehicle fail. Then you have to look at your states rules.

    Cruise control / Auto Pilot is Garbage

    I just have basic autopilot and my experience so far has been surprisingly good. I’ve had “smart” cruise control on the BMW i3 and Nissan Leaf’s pro pilot. With those previous cars, cruise control would brake for all kinds of things. Overpasses, change in road color, cars merging several car...

    What's in your (f/t)runk... RIGHT NOW!

    Frunk: Plug kit, inflator, battery jumper, rags, and the back seat head rests. Basically stuff I wouldn’t need on a daily since I don’t want to push down on the hood too often. I should probably add that V8 for extra boost

    82kwh LR?

    That would be cool. What was your VIN? Interested in hearing if anyone else confirms this. My build date was 3/25 but I don’t have the necessary tools to run a test.

    As a TSLA investor, I sure hope so!!

    Tesla EV Tax Credits coming back?

    I don’t know. I was driving to the service center yesterday to pick up my Y after having the charger door realigned. There was a full semi of new Y’s being delivered to SoCal (all older headlights btw). Unless there’s supply constraints, they are churning these out. Geography seems to be the...

    Tesla EV Tax Credits coming back?

    Technically, the order agreement will say you have 3 months to take delivery of the vehicle after first attempt to notify. I heard it used to be 6 months. They could technically assign you a VIN and delivery date after your order is placed then your clock would be running. They then have the...

    Alternative to HomeLink module

    Interesting alternative. Is there any way to cancel the autoclose on certain occasions? I’m just thinking of the scenario where sometimes my kids and wife are doing projects or crafts in the garage. I drive away but it would be less than ideal to have it autoclose when they’re in there. Sounds...

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    The Y doesn’t get exported out of North America at this time so I don’t think you have to much to worry about. The only wait is the 7 seater production line. Being so close to the factory, I imagine you still have a chance today.

    Tesla changed our VIN One day before delivery for an older VIN.

    Happened to me but the VIN was 159 vs 160, one day difference in build date. They were trying to deliver 2 days early and had one on the lot already. I’d say take a look and if it looks good, don’t over think it and enjoy.

    California LR AWD Waiting Room

    Just curious, was refusing not an option for you. I’d have ran away and asked for a new VIN. EOQ pretty sure they could find another especially in California. Was pretty happy with my Y. Gaps pretty even all around. Just the charger port slightly proud. I did find a paint issue on the rear...

    Should I full ppf my new white model y?

    Yeah definitely. You should see my other car. All kinds of scratches, dents, and even a spot my daughter sanded to be like daddy. My Y is only a few days old so I’m taking some effort now but looking forward to when the novelty wears off and I can just not care. You’re right too. It looks...

    Should I full ppf my new white model y?

    I decided to skip it. It’s a car at the end of the day. No amount of PPF will protect my car from my kids, cars parked next to me, or accidents. In all of the cases, I’d be SOL and then I’d have to spend even more money to fix or replace the PPF. I put on Tesla mud flaps and the rear door PPF...

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    Not sure. We’re all guessing. I’m sure that existing inventory with no heated steering wheel and old console is just a handful at this point. If they were smart, they’d have some kind of calculation of inventory before they implement the change and let it get out into the wild. At least, the...

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    I think there will be some delay. Won’t be April 1st unless they hold them in the lot while they get rid of existing inventory builds.

    California LR AWD Waiting Room

    Good to know. That’s where I’ll be going this weekend to pick up my car. I asked to pick up at the SC so I could check the interior. If everything looks good, I’ll just accept and forget the headlights already.

    California LR AWD Waiting Room

    160xxx LR White on Black 19” w Tow just assigned. Was notified this morning that it was expected to be built Friday 3/26. Guess it came off the line earlier. Expecting Sunday delivery in SoCal with old headlights. I think I’ll just accept if the build quality is great. I was waiting for new...

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    The only thing I could think of is compliance for the European market since I believe they were shipping 3’s but not Y’s. So on the 3 line it makes sense to simplify the supply and ease of shipping the 3’s abroad. The Y’s it’s not a big deal since it stays in North America. So they’re content to...

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    Very close to my build on order but I have the tow hitch. Headlights will likely be the next update which is what I’m painstakingly waiting for. From what I’ve noticed on the threads, it still has not happened as of builds last week. Hoping you get one of the first ones with headlights. Congrats!

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    I fail to see how that could be true. They’re suddenly going to stop building Ys in April. Spring break holiday? First 2 weeks they’ll likely be trying to push their leftover March builds, but you can bet they’ll still be making new builds. The real question is how long will it take them to...

    Tesla OEM Rear Door PPF damaged in packaging

    Guess it’s just within spec haha. Trimming it a little seems like the way to go.

    Any Model 3 with new projector headlights in the USA?

    So are all Model 3's coming with the new headlights now? Anyone know / recall if it made its way through the M3P first then the other trims? How long did it take to make it though all trims? MY buyer here, trying to get some sort of indication how long I'll be waiting for the new headlights in...

    Tesla OEM Rear Door PPF damaged in packaging

    yeah it’s a little frustrating how they package and send the film. Last time when I contacted them about what to do, they just sent me a RMA to return it for replacement. They didn’t really respond to my inquiry, just sent the authorization.

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    Well we know that 3/9 is not the magic date. Thanks for reporting and helping them use up the stock of old headlights! 😉

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    looks like we’re all still waiting for the new headlights for the LR trim. The new lights will have a round projector bulb on the outside aspect. ☹️

    Tesla OEM Rear Door PPF damaged in packaging

    Has anyone had issues with the packaging of the Model Y Rear door PPF causing damage to the film? I’ve gotten 2 films (original, replacement) from Tesla. Both have come with the corner edges being smashed enough to cause some creasing and lifting of the corner of the film. Is this normal? Will...

    $1000 Price drop gone LR AWD

    My question is how they handle those of us who ordered at the higher price, saw the drop in our Tesla accounts, but not they increased it back to the original price. Time of order for us is the higher price.

    $1000 Price drop gone LR AWD

    Looks like the $1000 price drop is gone tonight. Wonder how it’ll affect those of us who ordered at the higher price and saw the drop in our accounts. Will we go back to the original higher price on our purchase agreement?

    VIN Assigned! 140286...Highest I've seen yet.

    I had a 142xxx (SoCal). Inquired about the headlights but they told me it wouldn’t have them. I had them unmatch me. Now I wish they had said we’ll take a look at the car when it gets here and unmatch you if it’s still the old lights. Hope you guys get it so I can ask for a new VIN and take...

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    Agree. It’s entirely inefficient to be sourcing 2 different headlights and just non-P Y’s getting them. Unfortunately it’s up to the Y’s to finish out their current supply as the 3’s get exported to Europe (at least that’s my theory).

    Retroactive & at-sale full $7500 EV tax credit (Electric Credit Access Ready at Sale [CARS] Act)

    So true. I think the Dems must resort to any means possible to further EV adoption even if it is a “negative carbon tax” as you put it. You almost need a generational change in politics to leave our reliance on fossil fuels behind.

    Retroactive & at-sale full $7500 EV tax credit (Electric Credit Access Ready at Sale [CARS] Act)

    What about fossil fuel subsidies? Propping up both fossil fuels and clean energy is pointless. I’m not sure about eliminating all EV incentives. I think it could be more targeted by income or graded by MSRP, but it has to be universal to all manufacturers. The exception would be if you want to...

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    Yeah I would call that bluff. I would almost guarantee you could get a car the first week of April. It’ll be leftovers they couldn’t sell in Q1, but I don’t think you’d be waiting till June. I would respond, I will guarantee to order and accept delivery if you can guarantee me X features.

    Any Model Y with new projector headlights in the USA?

    I hope he’s right about the headlights. Someone posted on FB a 3/1 build sticker that they said still had older headlights but there was no picture of the lights.

    Retroactive & at-sale full $7500 EV tax credit (Electric Credit Access Ready at Sale [CARS] Act)

    I wrote both my senators in California to support the Electric CARS Act. Was it Feinstein or Pelosi who had bought a bunch of TSLA Call options?

    MY with new console spotted today

    hmm you selling? I’d buy it for $24k In all seriousness, the potential return of the tax credit is what will devalue all the Ys.

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    There was someone with a 138xxx LR White/Black/Tow/19" that didn't have the headlights yet either. They say they're not sequential, but I think we're looking at least March build dates to have a chance at the headlights. Will be interesting if there's any truth to the 82 kWh battery, but seems...

    New MY delivery - what to expect?

    If you have a sales advisor, they should be able to look up the born on date for you. If they’re savvy enough, they may be able to figure out which updates are on your car.

    New MY delivery - what to expect?

    Anyone’s guess, but so let us know so we gather more data points. I think it’s the headlights that will be the next update that trickles through the LR model line. Did they give you a build / born on date?
