    Dashcam Flash Drive Repeatedly Disconnecting

    I could never get the included Tesla flash drive to work. Dashcam is extremely sensitive to write speeds. I currently use this one and it has worked 100% for the last 4 days (I've only had the car 8 days as of this writing)...

    Need Advice for home charging

    I'll explain what I did because you might have something similar. Since you live in CA, I'm going to assume you have some whole-home A/C in your house, yet I don't see a breaker on this panel for it. In my case, the house had a main panel on the outside of my house by my A/C units that had...

    2021 heated steering wheel Discussion thread

    Took delivery on 2/24 of my M3 LR and it has the heated wheel. It came with 2020.39.111. This afternoon, I got a notification that the newest available was 2021.4.10.1. After upgrading, just minutes ago, I can confirm the heated wheel still shows up under the heating options. I cannot speak...

    Model 3 production line shut down ??

    You could take it as a glass half empty scenario. Or for those waiting, you could take it as a glass half full: Could Tesla Model 3 Single-Piece Mega Casting Be A Reason For Factory Shutdown? Maybe there's an upside to the shutdown.

    I took delivery last night. They no longer include them. They just added them to the Tesla store for $20 last I saw, I ordered the set from carwiner on Amazon for $40 and they work great. ANd yes, mine came with the heated steering wheel. Build 02/21.

    Delivery Success Stories

    My delivery appt was originally scheduled for today. On 2/20 I got a txt that it was being moved to 2/27. Probably from all the midwest weather. I was txting my SA yesterday and he mentioned that it was off the train at their depot in Alabama and on to a truck headed for Raleigh. On a whim I...

    2021 heated steering wheel Discussion thread

    Just adding a ray of sunshine. Took delivery of my LR AWD tonight. It is a 906 VIN manufactured in 02/21. It does have the heated wheel and it warms up nicely, even when it was 72 in Raleigh today.

    Received Model 3 Today - SO many problems

    If it were me, I would pull up first and take the handle off the pump and walk up and down the side of the car, no less than 10 times, pressing on the panels and looking for the gas tank door, just to watch people's faces. Then I would go get the can to fill up.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Post a review on a separate thread when you do! I think the Carwiner one looks deeper and can hold more but it's really tough to tell from the photos.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Nice find but I think those look kinda basic. I liked the dividers on these and ordered them. I realize twice the cost but it's another option for those interested. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08T69TJ1D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and...

    2021 Pricing Changes on Model 3/Y

    For those interested in the process, I thought I would share if you run across this. I have had a vin since 2/8. All that was left was to make final payment. The car is scheduled to be picked up 2/27. I sold my previous car separately and I made my payment via bank transfer last week. On...

    As usually happens, I spoke too soon and jinxed it. Got the txt this morning, delivery pushed back from 2/24 to 2/27.

    Statistics from the order tracking spreadsheet for fun

    Some thoughts from the stats. Didn't realize the LR had such a high percentage of sales I knew that white was the most popular external color, surprised black was the least. Not surprised that white is gaining on black for the interior. I ordered black but watch the you tube videos on white -...

    2021 heated steering wheel Discussion thread

    I'm not trying to be a downer here but what stops Tesla from selling the heated steering wheel for $200 as an upgrade for every person that has the hardware installed via a future update. Not too far fetched, they have been selling the back seat heaters for a while. Sorry, speaking as the...

    Statistics from the order tracking spreadsheet for fun

    While I wait for my red M3 and stare at my lonely wall charger, I was wondering: What's the most popular color?, What's the most popular trim? What percentage of orders have FSD? Since we have some sampling of data in the order tracking spreadsheet, and compiling data is part of my job, I...

    Teen mode suggestion

    A couple things come to mind: valet mode blocks your home address which I would definitely want them to have. I suppose they could just enter the address manually as they obviously know it. The car I have now is worth 10k, the M3 cost 53k. My old car was not software-defined like Tesla's are...

    Teen mode suggestion

    I have been searching the forums and cant find much on this topic. I'm going to make a formal suggestion to Tesla but I am also going to look for additional ideas from the group. I have a M3 on order and due to be delivered this month. I have been reading tons and watching videos to educate...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    For additional insight to those waiting, was txting my SA this morning. My delivery is scheduled 2/24. Since I got my VIN, the store arrival showed 2/22. (I was asking for an update this am because of the midwest weather.). He said my car is on a train to their hub in Atlanta and then will be...

    Raising the price of the 14-50 adapter

    In case you missed it, the price of the 14-50 adapter is now $45 in the store and all other adapters are $35. I know for a fact when I ordered mine last month that all adapters were $35. Just a heads up.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I am very curious about this as well. LR AWD delivery scheduled for 2/24 but texted my SA yesterday as all pre-delivery tasks are complete. Asked him to let me know if there was any chance to pick up earlier. He responded saying he absolutely would let me know. Wondering as well if there is...

    2021 heated steering wheel Discussion thread

    There are some really good youtube videos on this with the new heat pump. This one is my favorites: The guy leaves his car plugged in outside overnight and it's 21 degrees F. Watch as he turns on the heat to 70 degrees F with all seat heaters and rear defrost and it heats to temp in 5-6...

    Something about the VIN numbers

    Ok, while waiting patiently for my M3 LR, I was looking at the order tracking spreadsheet. Something is off. If you create a filter and sort by descending VIN number you will see what I mean. As I type this, if you only look at the 9xxxxx VIN numbers, there are 15 of them (I'm excluding the...

    My range is 2/19-2/26 and I have a VIN but has not been scheduled as I type this. I txt my SA and he told me the target date is 2/22 in the computer. If u don't know your SA you can call customer service to find out who they are.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Got an email that instructed me to finalize my payment. Went to the web page for the reservation and the VIN was listed under my reservation number on the right hand side. I had previously checked the web page that morning before the email and the VIN was definitely not there prior to the email.

    Question I thought of this afternoon: can you turn the heated wheel on/off from the phone app like you can the seats?

    I received a VIN yesterday for my LR AWD and it is 906XXX. Delivery is 2/19-2/26 and it will be the first thing I look for (even before imperfections.). I'll post my results when I get the car.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Well, I guess it's darkest before the dawn. Not less than 5 min after posting this above, VIN just came in email 906,785. Delivery moved back to 3/2-3/30 - the original range when I ordered it. Red/Black w/ 19in wheels.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Agreed. When I ordered on 1/12, it was 3/2-3/30. Then it moved multiple times settling on 2/13-2/28 and as of this am has slipped back to 2/20-3/8. I've watched far too many videos and ordered too many accessories. I have the loneliest wall charger installed in the garage right now. I'm...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I ordered the my first M3 in January this year. Went into the sales/service center to test drive one as I had never driven one before. Most amazing driving experience I ever had, ordered one on the spot. My SA, the one who greeted me from scheduling the test drive, gave me his mobile before I...

    Questions about condo charging near the ocean

    Ok bear with me, looking for advice from the group. I have a M3 LR on order due to be delivered in Feb. I own a condo at the beach in NC. We rent it out all summer and use it a little in the off season. The closest superchargers are a hour away (Myrtle Beach and Wilmington). I have access...

    Torn Between Dual Motor LR and Performance [resolved]

    I test drove a M3 SR in early January. First time in a M3 and I was blown away by the acceleration (I have a 2014 Tundra, aka "Tank"). I opted for the LR over the performance and ordered it immediately after the test drive. For me, the LR with AWD will have more than enough performance. I...
