    Michelin Cross Climate 2 thumping noise?

    Did you ever swap wheels or figure out what may be the cause of this?

    Speaker popping noise

    Not exactly the same but our new 2023 MYLR has a minor crackling noise when on phone calls when the volume of the call is loud for a moment. The crackling isn't noticed during music or other sounds, nor does it happen on our 2021 MYLR. 🤷‍♂️

    Gen 3 Charger Power Sharing - who has this working?

    My electrician checked with the other Tesla certified installers in the area and confirmed the method he wired the second connector is okay. He did come back to replace the wire nuts with rubberized Polaris connectors as seen in this photo, as they are more durable. (The brown felt in the photo...

    Door / Window Rattles

    For sure, everyone should put as much effort into it as they like. I'm just commenting that it's never easy nor straight forward to have many repairs covered and handled under warranty without a large amount of back and forth, arguing, etc. I've been through the ringer many times over a variety...

    Door / Window Rattles

    If it only were that simple dealing with Tesla service, or any automaker service for that matter. Heck, last week Tesla almost tried making me pay for an alignment on our new 2023 Y that was misaligned from the factory and veered off to the left immediately upon taking delivery. But they were...

    Gen 3 Charger Power Sharing - who has this working?

    I had a 2nd wall connector installed this week by an electrician and setup with power sharing. Wire from 100A sub-panel, 60A breaker, in basement (thick gray sleeve) to 1st wall connector was cut and spliced with a new wire that runs to the new wall connector on the other side of the garage...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Great experience with USSFCU so far! Thanks to the helpful posts on this forum for understanding the process. The membership and loan approvals were very quick turnarounds for me, days or less each, and they are very quick to reach on the phone or messaging via the portal at any time. They sent...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I applied for the loan last week when I did not have a VIN yet and an EDD of May 27-June 30. They approved the loan application and I received the approval the next day, with it being valid for 60 days. As long as you enter and upload all of the required info, it's a pretty straight forward...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Good question! I just secured the same rate and loan length from USSFCU myself. I can’t find anything lower.

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    Figured. I just tried calling into the main line to speak to a sales advisor but they are closed. My exact build has been sitting in inventory in Minnesota, just nobody else apparently interested. 🙃

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    Does anyone happen to know if there are any options for snagging a Y that’s in inventory that matches your ordered config exactly but is several states away? 15 hour drive. Can Tesla relocate it to the nearest delivery center, even for a fee? The listing also does say the car can be registered...

    License, utility bill (for address), and the VACC certificate.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    I applied last night and received the phone call and documents to sign today. Strange that you’d be declined for no reason.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Since you don’t have a VIN yet do you expect to take delivery within 60 days? Or is the loan agreement valid for longer than that? I don’t have a VIN yet either, and my timeframe just says April-June so I’m hesitant to do the loan application with USSFCU and then not take delivery until late...

    How many miles did your original Factory OEM tire last before replacing? (Miles/Wheel Type/ Size/ Tire Brand)

    22,000 miles on my 19" OEM Continental ProContact RX tires. Replaced with Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 Plus. Wanted to go with Michelin CrossClimate2 tires but when they were installed they vibrated over 60mph despite 3 balancings.

    Tesla Model Y 2023 Ordering process and Finanacing

    For anyone who has joined USSFCU and purchased a Tesla, what process did you/they use for the payment? Was a bank check sent to you in advance to physically take to delivery, or was a wire transfer used?

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    Interesting. Did you call the general Tesla phone number and select sales to speak to accomplish this? 1-888-518-3752. And did they assign the VIN to you over the phone without you reserving the car on your own online first? My concern is waiting the ~25 minutes on hold to speak to someone to do...

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    I also called Tesla yesterday and confirmed with the sales advisor that an existing $250 deposit fee paid on an order cannot be applied to another vehicle that may be found in inventory. He said Tesla has changed logistics since 2021 when I bought mine, and the inventory cars HAVE to be going to...

    Discussion: Model Y General Waiting room for orders placed After January 2023

    Can anyone confirm the proper process for getting a vehicle out of inventory when one is on order, and transferring it to your original order as to not have to pay the $250 order deposit twice? I've read about people doing this by calling the delivery center, but curious if anyone knows for sure...

    Any mud flaps effectiveness or efficiency tests?

    Agreed. While the mudflaps and rear door PPF have protected the paint in that area on the rear doors well, the black plastic undercarriage is chewed up. You can't visibly see it on mine, but you can feel it.

    Unable to delete on board sentry clip

    That thread doesn't lead to any ways of removing it either. I've been searching for a way to get rid of one on mine and not coming up with anything.

    Auto high beam behavior

    UPDATE ON THIS ISSUE! As of firmware 2022.12.3.1, auto high beams now stays enabled! It no longer gets disabled randomly or after sentry mode is activated when parked. I've been paying close attention to it for about a week and it hasn't been disabled once. This is the first time since I got my...

    Driver seat control panel loose

    Same here, going on 7 months with the screw and all is well. Strangely enough, the passenger side original plastic pin has not had the same issue and is still in tact.

    When the ACTUAL cybertruck pricing is released…,

    I will agree that the Rivian interior looks nice but the Ford Lightning is literally just an old Ford truck interior with a touch screen slapped in it. Tons of buttons and very outdated and ugly compared to Rivian and Tesla.

    Driver seat control panel loose

    As a follow up to this, mobile service replaced the plastic pop screw with a metal self tapping one. Has been very secure in the months since.

    Should I black out my badges/emblems on my black MY?

    I've been looking into the plastic covers as well. Where did you purchase yours and have any pics of how they look installed?

    Yeah I agree, service is the best option but if you need it, here are some service manuals for the 3/Y.

    Steering wheel heat inconsistent

    Let us know, thanks!

    Steering wheel heat inconsistent

    Yeah I've noticed this as well. It seems like a feature as it's very warm at first, then less warm throughout the drive, however every now and then during the drive it seems to heat up again for periods of time.

    Driver seat control panel loose

    Tesla mobile service visited today for the plastic fastener issue. He said this is the second one he's done on Model Y and it doesn't make sense to continue reinstalling the same white plastic fastener so he installed this self tapping screw in about 30 seconds and it's very secure. We discussed...

    Cruise control / Auto Pilot is Garbage

    I do miss this feature from my Chevy Equinox. It worked so well. I'd be very slowly starting to back out of a parking spot and it would quickly beep if a car was coming from any direction. The best part is, the beep would be the loudest from whichever speaker is in the direction the car is...

    rust under front seats

    Here are a few shots of some of mine. It's consistently on all of these parts for both front seats.
  33. suprax

    Driver seat control panel loose

    Yeah that's my plan, but I figure I'll let mobile service have a go at it first, perhaps install the self tapping screw from post 11 here. I'm mainly curious if others have the plastic crack that I have, or if they are just having the white pushpin fall out.

    Driver seat control panel loose

    Had this same thing happen to the drivers seat of my June 2021 build Model Y. In addition to the pin hanging out the bottom of the plastic, I found a small crack in the plastic near the hole. I put in a mobile service call for 2 weeks. Has anyone had the plastic crack here in addition to the pin...

    rust under front seats

    I looked under my seats this weekend while trying to figure out how the seat controls plastic piece came look and found the same rust on both sides of my June 2021 build MYLR. I was surprised as well. @whitecat Do you have further info on the pushpin issue? I found a crack in the plastic next...

    Model Y Software Updates 2021.32.21 (Oct 1, 2021)

    With 32.21, I've noticed the the regenerative braking has been reduced. It doesn't slow the car as fast, and takes a long distance to stop. This is during good temperatures with no 'reduced regenerative breaking' messages or dots on the 'energy bar'. I drive the same route 3-5 times per week and...

    Laziness is winning, about to go to touchless automatic wash

    I’ve found that the touchless wash near me uses Lustra chemicals. I tried contacting them to confirm specifically which ones but they haven’t responded.

    Vision-only cars

    I just checked the Tesla app (I didn't get a notification) and 32.21 is available for me. I'm installing now on my Model Y Long Range built in June 2021 with VIN 208XXX, currently with 2021.4.21.3. I don't have FSD so I assume that's why I'm receiving 32.21 and not 32.22.

    Vision-only cars

    Thanks for the info. I've tried some of the same 'checking' but I'm just waiting for it to popup in the app as an available update like it's happened once prior. I also don't have FSD or the subscription.

    Vision-only cars

    Congrats @wiegandster! When you say checking, are you actually doing anything or just opening the app to see if a "software update is available" appears?

    Vision-only cars

    It's still on there for Model Y, but falling steadily. Down to 8.9%, with 2021.24.11 falling as well down to 29.2%, and 2021.32.22 rising rapidly to 19.9%. I keep thinking how at least I'm with 8.9% that are still stuck on 2021.4.21.3.

    Vision-only cars

    My June 24 delivery MY is also still on 2021.4.21.3 and has been for some time like many of you. The Stats app shows that for Model Y, firmware 2021.4.21.3 is ranked second highest in the % of cars with firmware rankings with 11.6% having it. However it's far behind the leader which is...

    Available in Tesla Shop: OEM Model Y PPF

    EZ Pass location

    We've discussed on here how NY EZpass must have some outdated knowledge article from 10 years ago about how the normal transponders don't work inside Teslas due to 'special glass', so they seem to mail everyone the large license plate one instead. Like you I'm seeing snow and salt for 6 months a...

    EZ Pass location

    I also recently had the green plan added to my account and they sent me the same giant transponder as well. The good news is you can call them and they'll easily switch the green plan to another mini transponder on your account, or you can just go get a new mini one from a local store or...

    Auto high beam behavior

    Since I've been trying to determine the issue of Auto High Beams enabling/disabling randomly, I've been very mindful of this and have not found this to be the case at least for me. In fact I've been monitoring when the icon appears and disappears and sometimes it will happen when I haven't...

    Auto high beam behavior

    Yeah that's what's happening to me. I like the functionality of the Auto High Beams, however 9 times out of 10 it disables itself and I have to enable it by pulling the stalk. Then it's fine for the rest of the drive or the day, but by the next day it disables itself again. Or it can show itself...
