Just a few days ago I received the 30 day free trial of FSD and frankly I am blown away by the performance. I have never used FSD before and have been driving my 2021 MY using autopilot only for 50k miles. I am very familiar with the behavior of TACC and auto steer and know how it responds...

Is there any way to add a heater for the windshield wipers to a 2021 Model Y so they will work when it gets really cold?

Since 2022.44.25 I notice a pop up card on the left covering the bottom of the car visualization every time I start a new drive. Is there any way to prevent this? The card says something like "select music from iphone" and often has rev/play/ffwd buttons. If I slide the card right or left it...

Greetings fellow Model Y drivers! My 2021 Model y original tires are pretty much shot at 21K miles (Continental). I've never experienced a set of tires wearing out so fast, though I've reading it's pretty common with these cars. I was hoping to make it through the winter but it doesn't seem...

I have. 2021 Model Y with a one year trial of premium connectivity that will expire in a few months. I see there is an option to purchase a one year subscription for 99.00 now. If I purchase this today will it begin when the current trial ends or will it cut my trial short and begin immediately...

I am familiar with the many stories about auto wipers turning on too much or too little, but last night in heavy rain I discovered another issue. Since the auto feature is often unreliable I typically use the manual setting to put the wipers at one of the settings 1 through 4. I had them...

3D MAXpider Kagu Floor Mats (Black) for 2021-2022 Tesla Model Y. Selling front row only! Two mats. Driver’s side and passenger side. I never used these. Only put the driver’s side mat in to check for fit and feel and decided to go with rubber mats instead. As you can see from the pictures...

I currently have a model Y and love it. We are looking for a second car and considering the VW ID.4 since it is less expensive. The top of the line is about 51k and there is a 7500 tax credit and here in NJ there is no sales tax on EVs, so effectively that makes it 41k when comparing to ICE...

Should I be concerned by my TeslaFi battery degradation report? Note: the sharp drop around 4K miles is due to missing data. TeslaFi was inactive for 1250 miles. Other wise the recording was uninterrupted.

I've read a lot of posts about phantom braking but it never really concerned me much because up until today I had only experience minor and infrequent events. Tonight, however, my car really scared me. It slammed on the brakes to the point that the wheels locked up slightly and the car...

Anyone else hearing these random subsonic BOOMs while sitting quietly parked with HVAC running (camp mode)? When it's happening it is one boom every few minutes or so, and I never know when it will act up. I would say It is more felt than heard. It is a very low frequency impulse that sounds...

There is so much confusion regarding estimated range as our cars age. Some worry about perceived drops and how to get the BMS to relearn driving habits. A much better solution in my opinion would be for Tesla to add the option for the battery indicator to show remaining energy in kWh. The...

Currently the Gen 3 Wall Connector is available only in 24 foot length. This was increased recently from the 8' and 18' lengths available last month. I like the longer length cord so I bought one of the 24' recently to replace my 18' Gen 3 version. The serial number of the "new" 24' unit is...

I picked up my Model Y on 7/22 and my software is still on 2021.3.104. They said it would update in a few weeks but it has not. I chatted with Tesla yesterday and they said they show my car is on 2021.4. I sent them a screenshot showing my current SW is in fact 2021.3 and they said I need to go...

Took my first long road trip today in my new Model Y (July 2021 build) and everything was great except the air conditioning. It seemed inconsistent. Sometimes plenty cool, even too cold, and then 30 minutes later I find the car is hot and stuffy. When this happens there seems to be low air flow...

I bought two sun shades recently for my new MY. One is the foldable mesh type that most people seem to be using, and the other is more like a windshield visor but for the roof. It is made by a company called Heatshield and blocks 100% of the light. Unlike the mesh products, it is also reflective...

I am scheduled to pickup my Model Y on 7/22 in Paramus NJ and am wondering when to make final payment and accept delivery. I would like to inspect the vehicle inside and out before accepting delivery, but I've read that in some cases the SC would not open the doors until the buyer accepted...

Is there any way to get an estimate of build date from a MY VIN? I realize the VIN does not contains only the build year, but was hoping there might be a database somewhere where owners have been reporting VIN, build/purchase date, and features for reference. I just received VIN 228399 and I...

Ordered my MY LR on April 1 (no VIN assigned yet) and yesterday the Expected Delivery date was June 13 to June 30. Today there is no Expected Delivery date. It just disappeared.

Several posts I’ve seen claim that the bitrate for Spotify from the Tesla console over Premium Connectivity is severely limited to as low as 96 or even 64 kbps. Can anyone confirm this with specs or measurement? I would like to know how to determine for sure what rate the built in app uses.

I was able to arrange a Model Y test drive this weekend from 6pm Saturday to 10am Monday. This will give me all day Sunday to have the car at home and take a good long look at it. Though I placed an order on April 1st, I have actually never seen one up close in person before or driven one, so...

I'm giving some thought as to what to install for my future MY and am currently leaning towards the Wall connector. One of the reasons is I understand that an outlet install requires a GFCI breaker whereas the Wall connector does not. I put together the following cost differential (Lowes...

The MY LR base just increased to 50990 I believe.

I saw this auxiliary screen option by chance today. It seems to add Apple Carplay and a bunch of other features to the Model 3/Y. I have not yet determined the audio path it would provide us, but I assume it is still bluetooth. Anyway, this looks very interesting for lots of reasons, especially...

I am planning to purchase a MY this year and have some reservations about the extremely large sunroof. I realize this is primary a positive feature for most people, but I am not really a fan of sunroofs and am concerned that there is no way to close it or otherwise limit the light/heat from...

I plan to purchase a Model Y and am trying to understand the lease vs buy option. I'd like to estimate the total cost of leasing vs owning+selling after 36 months. I believe I need the following info in order to make this comparison: (1) Monthly lease payment + any down payment (2) Cost of...

Greetings all, New potential Tesla owner here looking for advice from those who know the MY well. I bought a 2021 Prius Prime Limited this year and while It is an excellent car in many ways, I now feel I want to go pure EV. I didn't realize until I bought the Prime just how nice EV driving is...

Greetings all, I am in NJ and waiting for Phase 2 of the Charge-Up New Jersey rebate program to begin. All indications I see are that it will resume in July 2021. https://www.njcleanenergy.com/ev The program specifically states it WILL NOT apply to any vehicle purchased between the end of...
