    M3LR on Michelin Defender 2

    Thanks, I understand when you say this "doesn’t tell the complete story"... However, even that high level data shows just about 3% reduction in efficiency:

    Review: Hankook iON evo AS vs Pirelli AS+ Elect vs Michelin PS 4S vs Michelin PS AS 4

    Yes, you’re right. I went and checked www.hankooktire.com and the specs for that tire state a tread-ware rating of 600. Obviously a typo on the Discount Tires website, which is where I do all my shopping and comparisons. My apologies.

    Review: Hankook iON evo AS vs Pirelli AS+ Elect vs Michelin PS 4S vs Michelin PS AS 4

    Nope. Not as per current Discount Tire listings of both of these products (SUV tires - 255/45R19). See a screenshot below (which I took just now on DT's website). In fact, the Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 is superior, spec-wise, on many counts Speed rating, Michelins is Y, Hankook is W...

    Review: Hankook iON evo AS vs Pirelli AS+ Elect vs Michelin PS 4S vs Michelin PS AS 4

    Treadwear rating is 540 and NOT 600. At least for the 18-inch - 235/45R18 which is the stock M3LR size. Link: Hankook iON Evo AS 235/45R18 at Discount Tire

    M3LR on Michelin Defender 2

    Discount Tire sells it. $248 per tire (for the Model 3 18-inch wheel). Here's the link: Discount Tire - PIRELLI P ZERO AS PLUS ELECT https://www.discounttire.com/buy-tires/pirelli-p-zero-as-plus-elect/p/106950

    M3LR on Michelin Defender 2

    Are you sure you got Pirellis from Costco? To my knowledge, Costco does not sell Pirellis (at least, in the US of A) - they only sell (or ever sold) Michelin, Bridgestone, BFGoodrich, and Firestone brands.

    Model Y comfort suspension?

    @cab - Thanks for the pointers. I took pictures of the Right Front and the Rear from my 12/2022 build 2023 MYLR. The numbers are: 1188463-00-E Rear (the pic is from the rear right - I'm assuming it's the same for the rear left) 1188368-00-H Front Right

    Model Y comfort suspension?

    How does one do that? I’m happy to post the info for my 12/21/2023 delivered MYLR if you tell me how and it’s not too hard (e.g. putting the car on a ramp, etc). Thanks!

    $45 MyQ Subscription

    How does one set up an iPhone to make this happen? I mean "Hey Siri, open /close garage". I have a MyQ smart garage control installed, both the hardware and the app. But have to pull out the phone, open the App and click on 'Open/Close" to operate the garage door.

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    Same situation. I got a $3,750 discount while paying for my MY, meaning this 'credit' was factored into the price at the time of payment. However, I because the car was delivered on 12/21/22 when a further discount was announced, I asked about Tesla paying me the discount, and they confirmed...

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    My MYLR delivered 3rd week of Dec was a Fremont build (VIN PF624***) and came with matrix headlights. Window sticker says 'Full LED Lights" under 'Exterior Lights'

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    Often, the SAs give out wrong information. My MYLR with VIN PF624, the SA had said “NO Matrix headlights on the car”. Turned out that it did have them.

    Model Y comfort suspension?

    I'm sure you mean in terms of spec and features (air suspension, etc.) when you say "lower model on the totem pole"... But, for the last few quarters the Model Y has far outsold the 3, S and X. And the gap is expected to widen even more in the coming years. The Model Y is a bread-winner /...

    Time to DIY PPF!!

    @nate704 - how can one be sure that this seller vitofi-91 (www.kitcutz.com) ships the Xpel brand of PPF film? I mean, they could ship 3M or some other no-name brand of film which may not offer as much protection as the Xpel. When you received the product, did the film have the Xpel branding...

    How many of you are still waiting to get your Tesla

    OD 12/18 of an inventory MYLR. Delivery date 12/22. VIN is PF624xxx series. Was informed by SA that it does NOT have USS and Matrix headlights. But it does come with Cargo cover.

    Shout out to Abstract Ocean, great company!!

    Excessive tension in the rubber gasket. Would recommend you shine a flashlight into the 4 corners and inspect the seals (the OEM glass seals).. This has happened to at least 3 other folks that I know of.

    Took delivery of my Model 3 on 24th Dec. It's not showing up on my account. But I supercharged 3 times on Jan 1st and Jan 2nd - those are not showing up on my 'history' not did I get charged for it. The remaining balance from referral 1000 miles does show up (minus 2 sessions on 31st Dec(.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Very, very likely it will have the new headlights with that VIN range

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    It most certainly will have the new headlights. My M3LR was delivered yesterday, VIN 872xxx. It has the new headlights. Almost zero flaws. I say 'almost' only because of a very minor paint flaw on the back of the driver side rear view mirror.
