    Why would you be asking AI about interior colors when the OP was obviously making a statement about exterior paint colors?

    Free Trial FSD, What DoYou Think About It?

    I like the visualizations of FSD better than my AP visualizations, but prefer TACC and autosteer over FSD for driving. Tesla would probably make a fortune if they offered “enhanced visualizations” for non-FSD customers as a one-time charge like they do for Acceleration Boost.

    What about this makes it a “Tesla table?”

    Windshield cracking, could it be a manufacturing defect?

    Exactly where mine cracked. That was the last time I blew 90° defrost against an icy windshield. Now I just warm up the interior to about 74° and let it sit a bit longer.

    Windshield cracking, could it be a manufacturing defect?

    I turned on defrost via the app last year to melt snow on the windshield. There were no cracks or chips in the glass before I did this. The glass cracked across the whole lower portion of the windshield. There was no evidence of a chip anywhere along the crack. Tesla replaced the windshield...

    Does Pearl White issues still exits?

    I chose to leave it be. The same paint on different materials inherently appears a different shade of white. After looking at white cars (and other colors too) of many makes other than Tesla, this seems to be universally true. If a color difference on plastic panels adjacent to metal ones is...

    Car is 'bricked', how to disconnect for tow?

    Not sure if this works for a MS, but on a MY or M3, open the doors using the connectors inside the front bumper tow hook compartment and a 9v battery. You can then get to the manual release for the charge port.

    Windscreen crack this morning after defrosting

    I melted snow off my windshield using the defroster at 80° last winter. I woke up to a 20” long crack along the bottom of the windshield with absolutely no sign of impact damage. Brought it to the Tesla SC and it was replaced free of charge right there in the shop. Now I defrost at a much...

    Set navigation favorites via app?

    If you have an iPhone, you can get the destination up on a map on your phone, (or a location entered into a calendar event) and then use the share tab to send the destination to your MYP. I believe this works with Android too. You can then favorite the destination in your Tesla.

    Best wireless carplay adapter

    I don’t think it really makes a difference. I had a data plan that used a SIM card, so I just popped that into my T2C device. I have no issues, other than sometimes needing to manually connect to the T2C Bluetooth when I get in the car. I have premium connectivity, and have no issues with...

    Regen Braking to low button?

    It would be close to when you have limited (but not fully disabled) regen from cold weather or a close to fully charged battery.

    New Car didnt pass Tesla inspection now Tesla wants me to pay more for another vin

    This is likely not a safety and emissions inspection like in NY. It is probably an internal Tesla inspection where the battery, computer, suspension, steering, etc. are validated. A battery that doesn’t hold a charge or faults when charging, or any malfunctioning computers would likely fail...

    Recommendations for repair shops near NYC/North Jersey?

    Wayze Please

    I too missed CarPlay when I got my first Tesla. The simplest solution, and one I went with and works awesomely, is this: https://www.carlinkit.store/collections/t2c-for-tesla It is a no brainer install, is nicely responsive and your steering wheel controls all still work with CarPlay. I’m not...

    Why so few models?

    My guess is before. Work is just starting up on Giga Mexico where Elon alluded to building the $25K Tesla. New Giga factories are built pretty quickly in the grand scheme of things. Building the sub-compact is probably a lot easier to do since it will likely be a “subset” of the model 3, with...

    Best wireless carplay adapter

    Thanks for the info! I already own the Carlinkit T2C, and it’s working very well for me. If it ever stops working (malfunction or incompatible firmware), I’ll definitely take a new look at Michal’s pre-built solution.

    Installing a Left Foot Accelerator in My Tesla Model Y - Is It Feasible, Warranty Concerns, and Seeking Experiences

    Curious to know where the brake pedal would be if you performed this modification. Or are you suggesting putting the accelerator pedal to the left of the brake? I’m sure you have no intention of replacing the brake with an accelerator since regen is good, but can’t replace a true brake pedal -...

    Why so few models?

    When Apple was a failing company after Steve Jobs had been forced out, they had a LOT of products. When Steve Jobs returned, he decided the solution was to wipe the slate clean and focus on just four products: a consumer desktop and laptop, and a “professional” desktop and laptop. The rest is...

    Snippiness 2.0

    Nobody is whining but you. And anyone else has the right to wish for whatever they want. As per my earlier post, I hoped Tesla activated the heated steering wheel functionality when that hardware that came with the MYLR had the capability, and posted on TMC that I hoped it did. That was not...

    Snippiness 2.0

    Just because someone else has something, doesn’t mean I want it for that reason. I made a point of why it would be nice to have. Your assumptions and negativity are laughable. I guess you must envy my common sense, since myself and others have it, but you appear lacking. Sorry if my post...

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    My very well made point was not envious in any way. My desire for a feature is based on my wants and wishes, and what is possible. My post was an opinion, just like you like to give - often. But you are so pompous, that if someone else’s opinion does not align with yours, you feel the need to...

    Matrix Headlights on LR Y?

    I’m sure MANY people would like Tesla to implement adaptive functionality for their matrix headlights (which are admittedly already excellent) because: A. Tesla probably can, given the headlights already have enough granular control to spell out TESLA, and B. Keeping the high beams on while...

    Best tablet attachments (please post pics)

    If a picture is worth a thousand words, a video is probably worth even more. Rather than take pics of my own screen, you can check out this video (from Carlinkit’s site I linked in my earlier post.) It’s long, but shows ALL available options to add CarPlay and AndroidAuto to a Tesla. If you...

    Best tablet attachments (please post pics)

    I briefly thought about doing that, but ultimately added CarPlay to the main display and can now have Waze front and center, and if I want, I can still swipe down and have the Tesla navigation. https://www.carlinkit.store/collections/t2c-for-tesla

    Vendor FullShade - The First Retractable Roof Sunshade for Tesla Mode 3 and Model Y

    Mine is also still unopened (for a ‘23 MYLR) and I was hoping that someone who installed version 2.0 (or the vendor who is the OP) can clarify what “compatibility issues” actually means. I don’t want to unpack it, attempt installation and then not be able to repack everything for a return if it...

    Rear Center High Mount Stop Light Fails Virginia State Safety Inspection

    Why would the third brake light need to be seen when it is not illuminated by braking? That’s just dumb. The prohibition on anything obscuring the high mount stop lamp (third brake light) is probably to prevent the illuminated lamp from being blocked from view of other drivers when the brakes...

    Vendor FullShade - The First Retractable Roof Sunshade for Tesla Mode 3 and Model Y

    Did you try installing it to check for “compatibility issues”? I don’t really understand their solution - how can you get a price match on an item only they make? If there are knockoffs, they probably wouldn’t match the price. If it didn’t fit properly, I’d want to return it at their expense...

    When are the Matrix Headlights going to be enabled?

    I certainly hope so. But we’ll probably only find out shortly after an update when someone takes a look and finds unimplemented code for adaptive features on the matrix headlights. I wonder if Teslas matrix LED headlights have the same “resolution” as other manufacturers do. When I see...

    S3XY Buttons Talk

    My apologies to all. They updated the page with additional info and I now see that the Knob’s commander will replace the buttons commander and all can be used with the new commander. That’s good, but I think I’d still need to be looking at the knob to use it, and that would put my eyes even...

    S3XY Buttons Talk

    A bit disappointing. Looks like a rotary knob with a display, surrounded by four buttons. It takes up a bit of room in the center console sliding door, but the real problem is that it needs another connection to the car. There’s no room in my Model Y rear console since the commander is...

    Best wireless carplay adapter

    They seem to be the same when looking at the specs. I purchased mine early last year when only one option was available, so I have a wireless version for the USA that has a SIM card slot. I believe the two current versions may be for three possible reasons: - US vs. EU version - Wired (dongle)...

    Best wireless carplay adapter

    I thought about going that route, but the Carlinkit’s hardware is very small and compact, and more importantly, comes as a small unit rather than needing a Raspberry Pi, modem, etc. plus the need to assemble the hardware and flash software and find an elegant case to house it all. If Mike were...

    No option for “low” regen on a 2020 MsRaven Ludicrous car?

    S3XY Buttons will allow you to adjust regen from 0% to 100% in 25% increments. This is more granular than even those that still have the ability to adjust via their Tesla’s screen. Tesla’s ‘Low’ setting is equivalent to 50%.
