    Tesla Service centers and dealerships now allowed in Vermont

    Tesla website just announced the grand opening on Thurs, Apr 11 10am-2pm. They are asking people to RSVP. Just guessing here, but there might be some free Tesla goodies (cups, hats, food, etc). It's unknown if they will have a new refreshed Model 3 to test drive...

    Debating the switch to 18 inch wheels from the 20 inch inductions

    I'm looking at getting Tein shocks for my Model Y, because of this video, they make it seem like its night and day difference, "almost like an air suspension". "Yeah, it feels like the air suspension in my Mercedes".

    Tyers noob looking to get Michelin Cross Climate 2 for the Model Y SR

    I'm looking to get some 18" wheels and put Michelin CC2s on them, to replace my 19" Geminis when the tires get more worn down. Tsportline has 18" rims made for the Model Y, but they are around $2k with the TPMS sensors. Then probably another $1k for the CC2s. Anybody know of any place that...

    Myrtle Beach, SC, Sales Center?

    South Carolina is an anti-capitalist state, they don't want consumers to have choices in buying cars. The dealerships have a total stranglehold on the politicians, so there is an outright ban on consumers having the option to buy from the manufacturer. They even passed a corrupt law that bans...

    MX owners: PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR REAR FOGS!

    Oh wow... I'm good since I already have the S3XY buttons for rear fog lights, these things rule. Sidenote: I thought my interior was clean, the photo says otherwise. I swear to the naked eye, it looks fine.

    Can you enable the rear fog light via Toolbox?

    According to this video, 2022 Model 3's have the rear fog lights, but maybe just the Model 3s in Europe? My US made 2022 Model Y has them.

    Can you enable the rear fog light via Toolbox?

    2022 and above Model 3 and Model Y in the US do have rear fog lights - but you need to buy the S3XY buttons to use them. Highly recommended.

    Turn on rear fog lights only?

    I have some answers about rear fog lights. All 2022 and newer Teslas come with the rear fog lights as shown in the youtube video above. I have an early 22 Model Y LR, in the US. I don't have the rear fog light button on screen, as shown in the 4th post - he must have a Model S or X. But -...

    Same here, drove by and there were lights on the inside but no other signs of construction or any changes. I think at this point we will be lucky to get it by end of the year.

    Great news!!! Thanks for finding out this info! And we now have pictures of what the store will look like, down to the building design and types of chargers in the parking lot. A few takeaways from looking over the designs: 1. There won't be any superchargers, just eight level 2 chargers on...

    Canadian Service Center for US resident?

    Yes, i've heard that Montreal definitely takes in cars from Vermont, and if you report a problem in the app they might recommend taking it for service in Montreal. I'm in Vermont also and haven't needed any service yet. They actually mentioned Vermonters going to Montreal for service on a "Now...

    Really frustrated with Tesla Service (headrest issue)

    This issue comes up quite a lot in a couple of the facebook groups i'm in, somebody just asked that question so I went here looking for an answer. Haven't experienced this problem myself, but hopefully Tesla replaces them within warranty for free, without question.

    Quick or easy ways to remove a J1772 connector (with adapter)?

    I definitely recommend the Y-hook, if you want to hold your J1772 charging handle plus adapter. I got the "Hyper Tough Screw-in Heavy Duty Tool Holder" from walmart, for $2. Easily holds the weight, I did make sure to screw it into the stud. Here's my setup.

    Quick or easy ways to remove a J1772 connector (with adapter)?

    I don't know if that would hold the weight of the whole charger plus J1772 adapter. I think im leaning towards way more simple Y hook that screws in the wall. It will definitely hold the weight and should be very secure. I'll go find a someone nicer one than the picture below. Y-hook

    Quick or easy ways to remove a J1772 connector (with adapter)?

    I'm searching for the same thing, and ended up on this thread. I'm still looking for a holder that will hold my level 2 chargepoint charger with Tesla J1772 adapter always connected. If I find anything and test it, i'll come and update this with results.

    One of the city council members said they received "a bunch" of favorable emails regarding the dealership vote, and that helped make their decision even easier, knowing the support it has.

    Service Center - Bedford NH

    Vermont is getting a service center, in Burlington VT. The re-zoning vote of an existing building just passed the city council vote, allowing Tesla to put up shop to refurbish an existing building to use as a service center/showroom. Its northern VT, so that might not help southern NH owners...

    Tesla Service centers and dealerships now allowed in Vermont

    It passed the city council vote last night, unanimous vote to approve LDR-22-07. 🥳 So now the ball is in Tesla's court, just guestimating, they could retrofit the existing building, hire people etc and be up and running by end of 2023?

    2022 Model Y - USB Data Ports - USB-A Glovebox Only

    A quick, welcome update: Back in June I was a little bummed that I didn't get certain video games - Sonic, Cuphead, Cat Quest etc, because my new MY lacked a center console USB port. Those games were downloaded yesterday! And, can confirm can play them with a $16 Logitech F310 game...

    I was thinking that slso, it's one single position, which doesn't sound very promising. I actually applied for the job just to get more info. I mentioned that I could set up their computer network for free if it helps their service center become a reality.

    Service Center - Bedford NH

    I really believe the reason there aren't enough Teslas in northern New England is because there are no service centers. The nearest SC to us is 4 hours away in Albany, I took a major risk buying a Tesla in the first place. A few people I know would not even consider a Tesla unless there was a...

    Dear Tesla... Please bring a new New England Service Center for Christmas!

    2022 Model Y - USB Data Ports - USB-A Glovebox Only

    I have a lame question - since my Y came without the console data port, it also did not include Sonic the hedgehog, and Cuphead video games, possibly a few others, since you can't play them without a controller. After adding this device, which restores data port functionality, does that allow...

    Ejdub - I did end up placing the order Sept 2021, picked it up Feb 2022. LOVING it so far! North of Burlington area, i'm seeing so many Teslas in the area now. There's 3 other Teslas just in my neighborhood. I unfortunately got the Intel chip, which sucks, but other than that the car has...

    New Jersey Waiting Room

    Basically was just unlucky. Tesla found a box of old intel chips, and to save about $100 per vehicle they threw them into a bunch of 373 through 379xxx Model Ys. Also didn't get the new lion 12v battery or heated wiper park. Still love the car but I honestly am bummed about getting shafted...

    New Jersey Waiting Room

    Picked up yesterday at Paramus NJ. 377xxx VIN, no AMD chip, no 12V lion battery but I knew this ahead of time so I wasn't totally bummed taking delivery. But, I have to say the whole experience was great at Paramus. The staff were super nice, and they washed the MY, it was flawless inside and...

    Exactly what the last poster said, the AMD will be able to handle all the new apps that Tesla will be adding in the future. And the 12v li-on battery will not crap out and leave you stranded every 2 years like the current 12v lead-acid battery does. I've heard with the Intel chip, opening...

    Bad news, My VIN 377xxx, confirmed today by SA, it has the Intel chip and 12v lead acid battery.

    Awesome!! Then pretty sure you got it. There are no elements you can see, the plastic piece where the wipers rest under the windshield should now be heated.

    Just got a service center "rumor update" from an advisor in Boston: "Just rumors for now. I believe they are going to do NH, VT, then Maine! We are trying to open them within the next year". So, hopefully by end of 2023, we will have at least one SC in each state in the northeast.

    2022 Tesla Updates Tracker (Responses) Looks like VINs with 356000 or newer are getting the AMD Ryzen processors. Rumor is, any build date after Jan 6 2022 is getting the AMD and new LI-on battery, possible rear double-paned glass.
