Ever solve this? I have this problem now too!

Now that I have the beta (fun!) I'm driving like myself again, which means my safety score for today is hang on... let me look... 72.

There's no clarification about anything, unfortunately, but it is very unlikely that it's a rolling 7-day requirement. The "next 7 days" language was in that post because at that point they/we assumed that there would be a 7-day safety score period at the end of which the beta invites would be...

Apologies, but this is in fact the opposite of the advice I gave. If you get a forward collision warning on a low-km day (so low that your FCW penalty is capped at 63.3), you should park your car, not drive it again that day, and get in lots of clean kilometres the next day. Remember that days...

What is very unclear about this is whether this means that we Torontonians won't get FSD for the time being, or if we'll get it (if we otherwise would) but won't be able to use it downtown. This makes a huge difference to those of us wanting to stop worrying about safety scores for a while. So...

Here is a counterintuitive but (I believe) true thing: you would have been better off just parking your car and not driving it again until tomorrow. I figured this out when I had a forward collision warning (plus hard braking event) that brought my daily score down to 31 (!) for that one day...

Uh-oh:

No, they should fix it.

You don’t lose the defrosters, but you are correct about the dimming function.

I can’t comment on the legality of it, but I installed wide-angle mirrors (these) and I can advise that they are awesome and you absolutely do not need an installer for this job. It’s extremely easy.

They’re great. The view is amazing, completely killed my blind spots. Installing them took seconds. I did not use any tape or shrink wrap on the unused dimmer connector, I just tucked it behind. I strongly believe it will be fine. None of the connectors on the OEM mirror are waterproofed...

My wide-angle side mirrors, ordered on September 18, arrived today, three weeks later.

We traveled from Toronto to the Maritimes (Nova Scotia and PEI) and our CHAdeMO adapter was essential, especially in Cape Breton. We used it at FLO stations, which are the only (semi-)fast option in many places. As far as I can recall, all of these stations had CCS as well.

Apologies if this was answered earlier, but if I order a set of first and second row mats now, when will I receive them? I’m in Toronto, Canada.

Not specifically. The invoice says: “Traced audio fault to rear amplifier, found loose connector causing loss of communication to rear speakers. Re-connected and verified rear speakers operational.”

Should’ve gotten an extension cord.

You can pry them out gently by using a very small flat-head screwdriver or similar item under the edge. No suction cup required.

I sent them an email but I could try calling. Thanks for the tip!

Might anyone have a 14-30 adapter for the Gen 2 mobile connector that they aren't using? I'd love to buy it. I need it for a trip in a week and that's not enough time for it to get to me from the shop in California. I could pick it up anywhere between the GTA and the Maritimes (since that's the...

Update: mobile service advised that a connector was loose. The problem has now apparently been fixed. Pretty exciting story, I know.

I would like to buy this -- sent you a DM (if I did it correctly). I'm local.

I'm sorry to hear that. I have a mobile service appointment booked for next week, in advance of which they have ordered a new amp, so they are certainly approaching this as a hardware problem.

I just went with "other," I believe.

Both

2021 MYLR. Not sure exactly when this started, but today I noticed that I have no sound at all coming from my rear speakers. If I fade the balance all the way back there is only silence. The issue occurs with both Bluetooth and streaming, regardless of the immersive sound setting...

That's hilarious. After reading Scoob's tip I sent them one message and they did it immediately.

Not possible

Autopilot works fine on Model Y with bikes loaded, but turn off the park assist chimes to make the rear sensors quiet down. Trailer mode is not required.

That was a hilarious mistake but the writer was very positive about the car. No hate there.

Imma let you finish, but this is what you need: All-In-One Screen Cleaner

That pin absolutely needs to be in the hole. Tightening the knob prevents rattling; it is not enough to keep the rack safely installed. Have a look at this to see if the hitch measurements are correct for your rack: Hitch Fit Tips. I had the same concern about my Thule Apex XT 4, but then I...

It’s freaking brilliant. Beautiful and capable and maybe a decade ahead of the competition. But, like everything else in the world except Neapolitan pizza, not perfect. If you look at the software in your Tesla and see wasting time with fart noises instead of serious software development, I...

I hope they can help you with the A-pillar. You can likely fix the hatch yourself. Had the same issue myself, and fixed it perfectly by unscrewing the black adjustment knobs on the underside corners of the hatch a bit. That’s what they’re there for.

They developed the greatest software ever in any car, and it’s not even close.

I like my Thule Apex XT 4 (no swing). Previously I tried a Yakima FullSwing but it didn’t fit very well on the Y and I very quickly decided that the swinging feature was more trouble than it was worth to me. Think about how often you’d use it, i.e., how often it will matter to you that you can...

Thule Apex XT 4 is a solid premium hanging rack for 4 bikes. I also tried a Yakima FullSwing but found it didn’t fit the Y very well.

Yes, I have had a half-dozen or so episodes in the two months I've owned the car where the stereo pops frequently, accompanied by flickering camera views and some other UI jankiness. A reboot always solves it until the next time. It hasn't occurred since 2021.4.18 installed, but that was just a...

Driving in normal mode and accelerating hard won’t affect your battery capacity at all. It just doesn’t do that. And accelerating hard has much less effect on fuel economy than it does in gas cars. The speed you drive will significantly affect your energy consumption but quickly accelerating has...

Does any person who is even slightly conversant with how autopilot works believe that this person could have engaged autopilot under those circumstances and then ghost-ridden the whip for 550 feet into a tree? If some magnificent acrobatic stuntman managed to pull this off, would this in some...

Optiwatt is a good, simple app that does this for free.

My cans, my precious antique cans, aw look what you done to em

CR ghost ridin the whip

I'm not sure what they mean. I picked up this rack (Thule Apex XT 4; no swing) a few days ago and it fits just fine, no interference issues at all. I previously tried a Yakima Fullswing and please be advised that the big red release lever/knob for the swing function just barely clears the Y's...

Automaker faces serious questions as investigators discover its cars can be crashed into trees

Ghost ridin the whip

This is incorrect in my experience with my Y. So long as you keep holding the stalk in the half-pushed position it will execute the driver-initiated auto lane change (when safe to do so). I do this frequently while on NoA. If you hold the stalk for only a few moments it may start the lane change...

Yes. The ghost of the man you killed on that dark road when no one else was around so many years ago rides silently with you everywhere you go, and he finds it less comfortable with the seatbelt buckled.

You can disable automatic navigation to home/work in Controls/Navigation by flipping off the Automatic Navigation switch.

That's loony. Even if we assume an Evil Prankster Tesla, why would they punish you for repurchasing it? I mean, they ended up where they wanted to be, with you paying for the upgrade. If anything, EPT would punish you as soon as you returned it, by, I don't know, making it so emissions testing...
