Got it, thanks. Difficult to figure this out the first time while driving on racy freeways at night. Here at home, parked, I found it. Again, not intuitive.

Thanks! Wonder why that is under Location rather than Charging? Not too intuitive but now I know where it is.

How do I locate nearby superchargers on my MY nav?

I guess I can spend $1500 to replace already good tires just to fix a problem that never should be in the first place. Sorry I don't know what a 'stretched' look is. Function is beauty. But sadly it's fashion before function.

Man, am I disappointed that I spent $2K on the induction wheel option. What moron engineer designed a costly wheel in which the rim itself protrudes out further than the tire? All you have to do is touch the curb lightly while rolling and the finish is wasted. Even though I'm generally pretty...

Thanks for all your help here. After a tech support call to Tesla (they were great), it was determined that the charger unit is faulty. Sending me a new one under warranty!

I did the breaker thing again. The rest of this is voodoo. But I tried it. Will not charge, will not allow a connection to the charger's network. Maybe it's broken?

Well, I've wasted my whole ****imng morning on this crap. Software update is done. My iPhone will not connect to the wall charger unit even though it sees it is on the available network list. But that is not necessary for the car to charge. On the Tesla screen, it shows the wall unit network...

Yes, I turned off breaker and restarted a couple times. No difference. I looked at the measly little set up guide the unit came with and scanned the QR code which did nothing. How do you connect to my home router?

Good ideas, thanks. No, I'm not trying to charge from the app although there is a selection for that. Just checking the status. Notice says "Wall Charger needs Service". I rebooted it. No difference. Now I see a software update is taking place, on the Tesla I suppose. Waiting for that to...

My 2021 Y decided to not charge yesterday or today. I have the big white 220v. wall charger that shows power to it (lower green light on the bar is on). Tried removing the plug a few times, no difference. When I press 'Start Charging' on the iOS app it says "Start Charging failed. Charging...

I've never seen any controls in my Y that allow me to aim the dash vents. Where are they?

My friends body shop can remove the bumper, repair the scratches and blend in new paint in that area.

Scraped the front corner of my Midnite Silver Y today against a stone wall. Not good. Appears to be made of plastic. Does the Tesla dealer fix this? Probably a full bumper replacement. Advice appreciated.

Every car with brakes has this phenomenon.

When we lightly move the turn signal lever, the signal will flash three times and then end. I want it to flash six times. I don't see a user parameter for that. Can I do that?

What kind of engineer would design an expensive wheel that has it's edge on the same plane as the tire's sidewall? With these wheels, if you touch a cement curb even for one second while barely moving during parking, your wheel's finish is toast. Tires should prevent this. Vey poor design...

I find that trying to use Sirius XM streaming from my iPhone while driving is quite dangerous. You must play with your phone to select a channel. It's not intuitive or simple. With the high sensitivity of the Y steering to begin with, looking at the phone and fumbling with tiny icons with...

Really?

'Default' setting is the original full height. You don't set it to that opening. That's why it is the default setting. You set it for your custom desired height. On the other hand why don't you simply park a bit forward, as you pointed out yourself? You wish for a Model 3 hatchback? Yes...

Trying to figure put why you are even bothering to discuss this.

Original? As in Tesla Branded? They're simply rubber pads. Not rocket science.

No two electrical jobs are identical, so no two cost's are the same. There are so many factors determining cost, such as distance from the main panel to the charger outlet location, remaining existing capacity in the panel, breaker space availability in the panel, running new conduit and...

Got it! I needed to turn off the breaker and restart the charger unit, as the charger's network is only available for a short time after powering up. I wanted to tell it what breaker I installed and get the confirming LED display, which I did see. It doesn't do much more than that, but I...

good points. I powered it up after installation. It supposedly has wifi but I don't see how to tell it my wireless password. What do I need wifi for anyway? All I need to do is plug the connector to my car to charge.

I just installed a new white generation three wall charger. It powers up with the green lights on. I scanned the QR code and all I get is a page of specs. I don’t see any way to connect to it. Hoping to see the chart that shows me the amperage draw, or whatever other data the Wi-Fi is supposed...

Out of stock.

Got mine now. Looks nice. Not put it on yet. Rainy and windy now and the Y is in the garage.

Trying to understand why we would want streaming services in a car. I cringe to think that people have this stuff running while they are driving. Do you sit in your car parked and watch videos or TV or whatever? I'd imagine that if you drive a Tesla you probably already have a nice large...

What does it look like when if starts to fail (rub off, etc)? I keep my Y in a garage and rarely use it. Live in Southern CA so no corrosives. I probably don't need it.

Has anyone tried this ceramic paint coating? My detail shop says it is best to apply it when the car is new. Probably looks great when new but what will it be in 5 years?

Having to use the phone to change channels is a pain in the ass, and dangerous while driving. I simply want the channel selector on the car's screen.

Yes, thank you!

The 'Welcome to your Tesla' video on their website shows that you can access the owners manual on the screen by tapping the 'T' at top of the screen. Sorry, it is not there on my 2021 Y. Anyone else have this issue?

Too bad, but I was just able to change my service from satellite to streaming and save $150 a year! I hope there is a Sirius streaming choice on the Tesla screen or I'll just use my phone app.

I need to transfer my Sirius-xm satellite radio service to my new Y. I need the Radio ID (ESN or SID). Where might I locate that?

That's it? A bent piece of wire? I would hope it fits in the narrow round groove. Seems that it might leave either a mark or a slight deformity in the plastic after pulling on it. I can make one of those in my shop in two minutes. I was thinking more of a blade type of device.

What's the safest method to remove the lug nut cover on a Tesla 20" induction wheel?

Why? Well, because it's their job to inform me of features and options. And a potential sale. Comparing Homelink to window tint and PPF is useless. Completely different animals. Windows are already tinted just fine for me. PPF is a consideration for now just in some small areas. I just...

Really? It is a costly option? Never a mention of that from the dealer. What a rip. I'll use my fob. Simple.

No, that's bluetooth.

Thanks everyone!

Looking for comments as well. Bump.

Mine has a low level whine. I find it rather comforting. Nice to get some audible feedback that something is working correctly.

Where is Homelink in the Y display?

New Y owner here. Cruising the display, I finally found the TPMS diagram. All the values for the four tires were blank. Is there some way to engage this feature? Isn't TPMS a stock feature? Still learning.

It's likely because they are a complete waste of money.

RPM Tesla does not have mudflaps on their website. Maybe sold out?

Good for you. It cost me $500 to ship it to Santa Barbara. Not happy about that.
