    Chrome Exterior Trim on New 2021 Model 3 - Is that Normal?

    4 months and no updates or pics? Look for double paned glass, the wireless charging pad on the center console, USB A slot in the glovebox, 2 USB C slots on the backside of the center console storage, power trunk. How did you take delivery of this car and not know what car you were driving home?

    Undefined Noise

    Is it hot weather where you live? It could be the cabin overheat protection to keep the interior temperature less than 40 degress celsius. The big glass roof heats up the car very easily even if the outside temperature is only around 20 something. It will stay on even if you turn off the climate...

    Picked up new m3 LR July 21 but no Boombox? here in Melbourne yesterday.

    When I picked up my car in March 2021, the car was running a much older software version that was pre-Boombox which meant it was a version before December 2020. I had to wait a few days until Tesla finished processing my payment and maybe internally switching possesion of the car over to me so...

    AC died while driving

    2nd update: The repair was covered by the warranty so it was free and the invoice states: "Technician performed an inspection and found an internal pin to have faulted. Replaced pin as required." I had dropped the car off in the morning and had to get to work and then someone else picked it up...

    Auto wipers activating when sun shining directly on windshield

    I always leave my wipers on auto and this issue started ocurring in the past few weeks. I notice that it tends to occur around sunset when I am driving home from work and the sun is directly in front of me. I guess the front windshield cameras think it is blocked by water rather than the sun so...

    Rear Windshield Glass Trim Missing?

    I have had the car for 4 months now and I didn't notice this until now too. Here's some pics with the trunk open and closed.

    AC died while driving

    Update: I did a hard reboot by holding down the scroll wheels on Saturday and it didn't clear issue. I left the car alone on Sunday and tried driving it today. The system fault message is now gone in the climate control menu and the AC appears to be working fine again. I looked up some old...

    AC died while driving

    When I checked the interior temperature from the phone app yesterday morning before it was driven, it was showing 51 celsius (124 F). I thought it was weird because cabin overheat protection normally keeps it at 40 celsius (104 F). I didn't think much of it and drove to get groceries and the AC...

    Dashcam Turns off once gear is engaged

    The icon that his finger is pointing to in the video looks like he is pointing at sentry mode when he says dashcam, however that is not relevant. The video quality is not great, but it does appear that dashcam (and sentry mode) is on when he is in park, turns off when he is in drive, then turns...

    Dashcam Turns off once gear is engaged

    I thought maybe it was due to a saved setting issue when switching between Easy Entry and your actual driver profiles. For example, Easy Entry profile has dashcam on, but your actual driver profile has dashcam setting off. However, I just tested it on my 2021 sr+ and that wasn't an issue. I...

    How to Add Gen 3 Wall Connector to Wi-Fi?

    I had my electrician install the wall charger while I was at work and I didn't know about connecting it to WIFI until after I came home. There was a sticker on the quickstart guide that has the SSID/password and a QR code for connecting to the charger's WIFI access point. To connect to the...

    2021 model 3 sr plus ufo noise in drive? [pedestrian warning speaker sound]

    I tend to think of the PWS sound when driving at low speeds as a jet engine flying overhead and the reversing sound to be the UFO.

    Sound while accelerating

    I have a 2021 SR+ and the pedestrian warning system (PWS) sounds like a jet engine when driving forward at low speeds and like a UFO when reversing. The sounds come from speaker grills underneath the front and rear bumpers. You can search it up on Youtube for examples.

    Anyone Getting Vibrations and Buzzing Noise While Stopped on 2021 M3??

    I got a 2021 SR+ in March and have noticed that noise, but didn't realize it was from the car. I usually notice it when I'm stopped at a light or driving slowly and kept thinking it was the bass coming off a nearby car that had the music too loud.

    Charging [at home] question [can I use a 100 foot extension cord to a 14-30?]

    I agree. When I was deciding on the placement of my wall charger, I thought about whether the 18ft cable would be able to reach a second car if I was to buy another EV in the future.

    Charging [at home] question [can I use a 100 foot extension cord to a 14-30?]

    I just got my 2021 SR+ a month ago and the car seems to have a max charge rate of 32 amps from a wall charger.

    Phantom volume changes (not touchscreen issue)

    I have noticed that the music/radio volume automatically lowers a tiny bit at low speeds and then goes back up once you start driving faster. It's a safety feature that I have had seen in other cars, although there is no mention of it in the manual or a way to turn it on/off.
