Fixed "rainbow road". Before there was no way to cancel, mute, or turn volume down. You're stuck listening to some dumb song for a minute or two. Particularly bad because two stalk presses = FSD, which doesn't always take, and four stalks launches rainbow road. Now you can mute it.

Not to worry, some third party is going to come up with add-on stalks. Everyone is happy.

The yoke without variable steering ratio is a joke. Everyone mocks the removal of the stalks. The fact that such controversy even exists is a testament to their failure. Clearly, these are blunders made by engineers who overlooked human factors.

True, and ceramic makes a huge difference in blocking heat. If you don't wan't it to go darker, just use 70% ceramic tint on factory-tinted windows.

Depends on your interior color, as the white brightens up the tint one level. These are about equal: Black interior: 70% windshield, 50% sides White interior: 50% windshield, 35% sides I have white interior 50% windshield, 35% sides, 35% one piece rear, 50% sunroof, ceramic tint.

After M3 19" starfish hubcaps were stolen.. so easy to remove with one finger. Switched to the cap and lug nut covers. Amazon sells gun-metal caps and nut covers: Tesla Hub Center Cap (B09MF43NRL) and Traverse Tesla Nut Caps (B07MJCGB11) Tried one service center who refused to sell the S...

50% is easy to see out of. No issues at all. I did order the 70%, but by mistake they put on 50%. The shop offered a free redo - or just remove and refund. I got the refund, and drove it for a week and I liked it - then told them forget about the removal. It's not even that noticeable from the...

Maybe fog / runner lights. You could disconnect it and check what breaks.

Went ceramic tint, 50% windshield, 35% sides and one-piece back, 50% sunroof. Its a white interior which makes it look lighter than a black interior. The factory tint is not ceramic, so add a layer if you want better heat rejection. With 35% rear, you can see the gradient tint in the sunlight...

Sure looks like someone was jamming a screwdriver between the glass and trim to pry the window down. Short scrapes on both glass and trim at irregular intervals, resemble a flat head screwdriver.

Rarely, if ever. I have never had issue with two cars for decades. And if you ever do get caught, you can just pay the small fix-it fine rather than take the tint off. If you have a white interior, the tint is like one level brighter. Example: For my white interior, i have 50% windshield, 35%...

This started happening to me, even though the windshield looked clean. I just cleaned the windshield manually with window cleaner and that fixed the problem.

There are no explosives in the mirror. That's just impact damage. Could have been a rock, golf ball, or any other reasonably hard object. Just pay to fix it and move on. There is no conspiracy.

SS Customs has a tesla owners of silicon valley club discount.. https://sscamerica.com/

If you charge at home then EV2A. But you can also charge at superchargers at off-peak times - that price there is comparable to the EV2A off-peak rate. Then for your house it could be TOU-C or E1 (if you have gas water heater / appliances.)

Costco insurance beat Tesla insurance for my M3.

So you're on the fence, Model 3 vs Mazda 3? haha Did you also ask this question on the Mazda forums? haha Have you even looked for a Mazda forum? haha Wake up! No brainer, Get the Tesla! Model 3 LR is an excellent choice. You've already figured out the charging options and there's always new...

24 cents/kwh off peak, 48 cents/kwh peak.

Called that grumpy old guy.

I don't have it. I just looked at it today, and it doesn't look worth it. Too prone to scratching from dirty wipers, etc.

You can add protection film for the windshield example: Windshield Protection Film | ExoShield

You won't get docked for that. Just return as-is when the time comes. If there is any trouble, you can protest or pay the $100 at that time. But that isn't going to happen.

Headlight Adjustments To adjust the angle of the headlights, touch Controls > Service > Adjust Headlights, then follow the onscreen instructions. You can choose which headlight you would like to adjust by selecting it on the touchscreen...

Yea, I did a long drive, charging every couple hours, and mapped to the 250KWh superchargers. That's works out great. A non-tesla with lower range and lower charging speeds would be more challenging.

Depends on your driving style. If you find yourself doing full accelerations up to 60 mph, like freeway on ramps, passing on large city streets, or like to zoom off when the light turns green - then you will notice a difference with boost. Or if you like to drive other people and show off the...

Yea, I drove along with an ICE car from on a 450 mile trip. I was doing 85mph so we could drive together. They filled up once. I charged like 3 times (began with a 50% charge) , like 20 mins, 20 mins, 35 mins. That dictated when we took our restroom breaks, snack breaks, and meal break. They...

That "miles per charge" really needs to be clarified - because most likely you will not charge to 100% and definitely you won't drive to 0%. You want the "realistic range" which is for a charge of around 90% to 25%. Things shut down at 20%, like sentry mode, so I like to stay above that. Any...

Would recommend driving 3-6 months without the boost. That gives you time to appreciate the LR for the speed it already has. Then, when you get the boost, it feels like a new car all over again. Plus you'll be in a better position to feel and appreciate the boost. It's definitely worth it if...

Thanks for your help!

What would be your take on this? source: Tesla Wall Connector Billing - techzelle

Unless, it is in an area labeled: GUEST PARKING

Well, that's exactly how it should work. Upon plugging in, display a popup notification: This billing enabled wall connector charges: $.25 per kWh. Press OK to accept or CANCEL to reject. Auto-accepting in 60 seconds...

Right now the owner cannot configure the price themselves - that is an upcoming feature. Who knows if there will be some sort of limits or approval process. So far we have two different installations reported, both are priced at $.25 / kWh.

The wall connector shows blue - communicating and hangs. Does not get to the green light - charging. This functions just like a supercharger, car needs to have billing enabled. But there are many free destination chargers on the Tesla Navigation map. Sounds like fake news. Drive to a nearby...

This location does not appear on the Tesla navigation map. To appear on the map, the charging station owner must apply for a public listing and meet some criteria on staffing, services,..

Just to be clear, Did you get a notification BEFORE you charged the car? My notification was AFTER charging. There was no indication beforehand.

You would work with the repair shop, not the insurance company. Total loss is determined by insurance company based on repair cost estimate vs car value. Your goal is to get the quotes as high as possible by asking lots of questions about probable damage and get them to include that in quote.

I withdraw my objection to the colorizer. I just changed my car to purple on the screen -> and the app. Looks great. So tired of looking at that gray car in the visualization.

Was this developed by the same person who created "Rainbow Road" - the one that can easily be accidentally triggered with 4 stalk presses? Because 2 presses launches autopilot which sometimes does not register, requiring another 2 presses... The one that plays a minute of a horrible song that...

You can just switch the breaker off when not in use so no one can charge on it.

Put a ramp at the curb so you can drive your car up and over the sidewalk and onto the property.

@Rocky_H The reality is you have no facts yourself. Yes, I have been back to the location quite a few times and have seen other Tesla's charging there. In fact, every time I have been there, including the day I was billed, there were other Tesla's charging there. It's a rather busy location...

1. "I didn't see anyone question that at all." mociaf9... "No, I'm pretty sure it means that it can't be set up to bill at all right now" 2. There is nothing special about the location. It just happens to be one of the few installations out there. a. property managers who want billing-enabled...

Of course it can be set up to bill, I have a dated receipt. You are making two separate points. 1. how many billing-enabled wall connectors exist. I found only one. I'd be surprised if there is only one installation. There is nothing special about the location. Other installations may have...

Says right in the last photo "Property managers will soon be able to set the price of charging sessions.." So that means Tesla is setting the price at the moment. I had no idea who set the price until I read that on the website.

Soon refers to property owners setting the price themselves. Right now, Tesla is setting the price at 25 cents per kW.

Yes, there is an entire page on the Tesla website on how property owners can get their own automatic billing-enabled wall connectors. You can have from 1 to 12 wall connectors. You can optionally be listed on the Telsa navigation map - provided it is a public charger and "you must have regular...

For the front side marker, you can remove the tire and wheel well liner to access the side marker wires from the back. It's easier in the trunk, as you can just remove the trunk liner to access wiring. But where / how does the wire go from front to back? under the door sill?
