I had this just as bad on my 21 blue Y. Tesla said not our problem. I said look at all the pics on the net. Told you could buy ppf. Never had this happen with 40 years of cars. Cost to repaint. $2k. Tesla would not do anything. Part of the reason had to trade in rather than sell. Had mud flaps...

Refresh would be good. With tax breaks i bought my 23 in Oct. Texas car. Not major difference but a little nicer in every way over the 21 Fremont version. Handling, fit and finish, suspension-ride, screen, cameras. I do like this one more.

10 mm is about 3/8” I have Nuespeed RS wheels they are 5mm different. Never noticed anything. I would not think you would feel anything. I wanted high quality wheels as stress from all that torque worried me a little about breaking them. Which would be bad.

I would run the AC with the temp on the warm side. High fan. I would do this climate left on if I was not going anywhere. You want to make sure you don’t get mold. Keep AC on. Could have been cold car then warm air and it condensed out.

They removed it for a reason. Elon said. Brakes take energy a turn it into wasted heat. Regen turns it back into energy. I’m not being a jerk here. But just learn to feather the go pedal a bit more. You do not have to come off of it 100%. Just like you don’t put it on the carpet every time you...

I had a 2021 from Fremont. Just got a 23 from Austin. I thought 21 was kind of a harsh ride. The 23 has softer damping. It is still a stiff ride but comfortable. I think fit finish and build quality is also a bit better. I am very happy with it.

At least 30 - 45 min if it’s very cold

Driving in winter gets salt and sand on the car. If you put a car cover on top of that you will get scratches. Once it gets on the cover it will still scratch the clean car. Modern cars are made to deal with winter.

Once the water is over the wheel centers your really endangering your wheel bearings, if they are not 100% filled with grease then water gets in and rusts those bearings. I would never go in that deep. Plus electricity and water are not good together 😂

Thanks for the pics. Nice to be able to see the new stuff.

Unless your car has New York plates on it that sales tax you paid was paid to CT for the plates put on your car. Tesla NY is hooked into CT DMV that’s how they get the plates, paperwork and collect the tax. Don’t worry CT can waste the money as well as NY tho.

make sure your Tesla app is the newest then reboot your phone. Reboot phone once a week keeps it from getting stupid.

I love to pull up to the gas pump in the Tesla. People paying attention are looking puzzled. 🤔Then I take out the gas cans for tractor etc.

It’s a free country So do what you like. As a difference, I bought the car partly because it’s very quick, I drive 75+ on the highway. I love 1 pedal to move through twisty roads quickly. Nothing crazy. Been driving 45 years and never crashed a Car or the Harley. I only Look at the trips to see...

Stela. See what I did there?

switched. Thanks for the $20 savings per year. I’m all in.

If your wheel comes off like that at any even 25 mph speed it takes the fender with it, tears up the tire and wheel cover. I see the broken part but that car barely moved once it did. The images just don’t go with the story. 🤔 Maybe it got jacked up on the suspension component and it broke...

Only thing to do is take it easy on the go / no go pedal. Car is really good at going straight in slippery condition, but you still need to keep a close eye out. I got a very big wiggle the other day on ice patch. Woke me right up. Tires do make a big difference.

I think Elon took care of this with his tweets. "Starts with a T Ends with an A ESL in the middle." “For reasons unknown, @potus is unable to say the word “Tesla”” Biden hates non union busines. Maybe because they don’t make political contributions, but I’m not sure why. this is why he never...

such a nice way to say Read the manual. Nice. 😂 Making sure app can run in the background is also key. I never have to open phone. If its needed time to reboot.

I would say that model S is a closer competitor to the Audi A8 high end luxury car.

Curious about this. VP Harris sound bite said “rebates for electric cars made in America with union labor” but Tesla’s not union. So I wonder how this will work. I bought 2/21 so I’m not in it anyway. 🤔

Thanks for the info. Interesting. This is what I was thinking. Live in CT. Car is outside. Been 25-30 most mornings last few weeks. Warm it almost every day. If you don’t regenerate level is low. Takes 4% battery if it’s not plugged in. A lot But I charge at work so… Sometimes you can see...

temp goes up and down.

Well. i think Tesla,s idea turns out to be better. Wife and I have iPhone 12 Pros Her new Subaru loses connection after about a week I have spent hours on this. Car Play. Blown it all away phone and car and redone. Does not work. She keeps saying can’t play music can’t make calls. This never...

This is the definition of supply and demand. High demand price goes up. Inflation also. Too many $$$ chasing too few goods. Economics 101. I needed a new car in Feb 21 glad I bought then. Never had a car worth more with 10k miles on it than what I bought it for. Luck rather than skill. Tho. 😂

I would suggest the new Tesla app if you haven’t installed it yet. I have less issues since upgrading both

I have seen the same thing. Problem solved 👍

all the files are on my iPhone 12 with 500gig storage. I just stream them off the phone. Just hit play in music when phone is selected in the music area of car and it will stream them. It will show on screen what’s playing.

Bought late Jan 2021. Only car I ever owned that went up in value. Not the quick 20%+ hit when you drive out of the dealers lot. I like this feeling. Luck more than brains. My old lease was up.

I have over 4000 lossless files. Im impressed with the sound. Much better than my Avalon with Jbl Premium. EQ is helpful.

Mine drift downward over a couple of days. I’m sure they are not returning after lowering when in reverse. Kind of a pain.

Just drive way faster than the flow of traffic. Then no one is coming up behind you. It’s all in front. 😳

Regen maximizes range. It also reduces the need to brake to almost zero. I am amazed at how steep a hill it can be going down and still actually reduce its speed. My model Y will never need brake pads. My dad taught me to drive and said drive with the gas not the brakes. Just get used to it...

I would buy another for sure. No quality issues so far. 3000 miles. Quick, quiet, user friendly tech. Love telling it what to do.

“Stela”

Thanks for the tip. I bought it. Perfect for my situation. Saved $276
