I couldn’t figure out what those guys were talking about over there ……… so I’m chiming in here. Got v12 right before my regular 350 mile trip to see grandkids and was pretty excited. Performance on freeways was excellent (although V11 was pretty good there too). EXCEPT ….. I always disengaged...

Pretty sure privacy is an illusion.

I’ve noticed that. I assume it is the grill and louvers for the coolant radiator up front. Only happens in extra windy, cross-wind, conditions when I’m going at highway speed. Not worrying about it.

You could go to an actual Car Dealer …… and have an even worse experience if you want …..

Right about here, I would have bailed ……… and just started over with a fresh order.

I went with front bumper only. Totally happy with that.

Depends on the job. My rear ports will charge a phone, but not an iPad.

Don’t know about cargo cover ….. and not sure what kind of floor mats you mean. It should come with floor mats …. But not the all-weather type most of us want. All of the cars come with a J-1772 adapter.

Good for you for trying again. I have found that being nice and asking for what I want …… maybe a couple of times …… has always led to good results with Sales and SC folks.

My original MC started throwing a red T fault a couple months ago. Figured out it was the 5-15 adaptor that went bad for some reason. Got a new one.

Same as UncleCreepy …. I always do a mirror check before signaling ….. BUT then I check the camera view, because I sometimes miss something.

Yeah … I’ve seen that. Maybe 1-3 times over past 2.5 years. I just put it in the glitch column. Software does that sometimes.

Totally agree with @Tronguy - I bought EAP a couple years ago to assist with frequent 500-mile road-trips to visit grandkids. Absolutely agree that it takes most stress out of flying down the interstates. I do also use it regularly on well-maintained, well-marked state highways in IL. Liked...

I do a 400 mile road-trip to see grandkids about every 6 weeks or so. Two SC stops each way. And several other random/vacation/exploring roadtrips each year with SC stops included. The rest of the time I charge at home.

Yay!!! Welcome! You’re gonna love the car. My wife was skeptical of the whole thing at first, and is NOT a car person. But I now take great pleasure in listening to her tell others how much she enjoys and appreciates the car.

Autopilot won’t. FSD probably will.

Sorry about your test drive experience. The AWD models aren’t available anywhere yet. They should have told you that, But don’t let that, or the experience above scare you off. While it is true that some have this experience, most do not. For most it is an easy and seamless process. I’ve...

Nothing special required for a road trip (or much else, actually). Top up the windshield washer fluid and maybe check your tire pressure by looking at the TPMS numbers. Toss your mobile connector and J1772 adapter in the trunk somewhere. Put your destination in the navigation box, hit the...

I’ve got a white one and after a few rock chips I sprung for PPF on just the front bumper. Glad I did …. And wish I had done it sooner. Didn’t do anything for the black one and hardly notice any chips. Next one I buy, I’ll probably spring for a Tesla wrap.

I would say quit thinking in terms of miles. Just think SOC or % of charge. Drive the car and go to the Supercharger it tells you to go to. Relax, get a snack, charge up, and continue your trip. Seriously, stop thinking about range and enjoy the car. Think back to your ICE car. Did you...

Well …. I noticed some uneven tire wear, took car to Tesla for alignment, paid them the money, and tire wear stopped. 🤷‍♂️

Got 48,000 miles out of my first set. Lots of highway driving in MS, AL, FL, TN, KY, and IL. 12,000 miles or so on my second set so far.

…… but none of those features is particularly useful/practical in real world situations. Of the three, I can use auto park sucessfully when backing into a supercharger space maybe 15% of the time. I quit trying to use summon/smart summon after a few attempts …. Some of which were dramatic...

🤔

I would like to try either one or both (I have a 21 MY and a 23 M3). I carry cargo with seats down in the 3 frequently ….. and lots of passengers in the Y. Probably a little more interested in the MY underseat protectors because I’ve been considering them for a while.

Yes. If you disable auto-cancel they work “normally”.

Here’s mine

Interestingly ….. it seems to have stopped for me. Didn’t happen on either of my two drives today. 🤷‍♂️

I’m getting the message too. “Automatic Emergency Braking Unavailable”. But seems to be only on first start of series of drives …. And only when in garage before backing out.

Yeah …. the M3RW is totally fine in the rurals …. Unless ground clearance is a need. I got the MYLR because I was (buying my first EV) worried about range. Based on experience, realized range was not a worry, got the M3RW second. As you say, because charging to 100% is no problem, I can...

Or switch to a different source where nothing has been selected to play

OK

Just posted this as a reply to another thread …… but felt like putting it out there a little more prominently …… just to see if it starts something. I gotta say ….. I think the whole range discussion is totally artificial. Maybe helpful when comparing cars for purchase … maybe. Around town ……...

Maintenance and Repairs: - What maintenance? All I’ve done on my 2021MY is rotate the tires …… myself. Dropped by an SC while on road trip once to have front end aligned after noticing some uneven tire wear ….. but that was probably optional. 56,000 miles and going strong. Figure I’ll swing...

Me too. 🤣

Yep Spigen Backseat Seatbelt Guide Holder Designed for Tesla Model Y 2023 / 2022 (Black) - 2 Pack

Hey, thanks! I used to secure the bow and stern to the tow hooks under the front and back of my old Honda CR-V ………. And puzzled over how to do that with the M3. I have plenty of straps …… now I have quick-loops on order.

FYI …… Had some new tires put on the Y recently. Out here in the rurals, they’ve only heard of Discount Tire ……. So I ordered my tires from Tire Rack and took them down to the local shop. Good guys down there but never seen an EV before. Pucks were essential for the lift they had ….. and they...

Well …… I actually have that first jack you mention and don’t love it. The cup on the jack is much smaller than radius of puck. Wish it encapsulated as you suggest. If it did, that would be great. Seems unstable to me as it digs into puck and shifts slightly when lifting. Would strongly...

Whatever ….

No cracks! Yay Took a little imagination to get it up there …… and some finesse to get it back down.

Lots and lots of wheel covers out there that cover the rims so you only damage the covers ….. and they all look awesomer than the aero covers (which have metal clips that actually damage your wheels). I have the original Rimetrix. They look great…. Take a beating …. And can be replaced...

Yeah ….. the advice from ….. @smogne41 is right on target. Do what he says and you will have a great trip. Then when you get back, you can reply to the next new owner that worries about this by saying what he said. Enjoy the drive!

Long time ago …. But I think I emailed customer support.

I think some have also done it at the SC when picking the car up. SA should be able to enter your routing and account numbers in the system for you.

We’ve all been there ….

Yes. Message them. They do have discretion …. But willingness to be flexible can vary. I was able to delay one of my appointments almost a week beyond the original window. I was careful to be real nice, respectful, and appreciative when explaining my reasons for requesting a delay.

Yeah ,,, it can take a while. I finally messaged them and my miles were added the next day.

Congrats on the car and welcome to the forum! You won’t regret it.
