So I turned my leased M3 in today. Was quite easy. They removed the license plates asked if the charging cord was in the car and off I went. That is the good news. Also signed the odometer statement. The bad news is they decided to double bill me and even add an additional monthly lease...

I have 2 more payments on my 36 month lease. I am on automatic payment where they draft each month. Does this automatically stop or do I have to do something to stop the drafts? Any other lease end tips appreciated. thank you.

2021 Model 3 AWD here. Both side view mirrors open and close as I near my garage. Now, as I drive away and both mirrors open, the right view mirror setting is not saved, it is always out of wack. The left view mirror is correct. So I go to the mirror program, reset and save the right view...

Real time traffics used to work when I navigate, no longer. Used to show traffic with orange or red thick lines instead of the blue lines. I have Premium Connectivity and it is up to date. Called tech support and they told me to highlight the icon that looks like 3 vertical dots or a traffic...

So I scheduled a tire rotation. My last rotation was at about 10K miles, now had 21K miles. Service person came out and told me that miles tires were worn to 4/32“ in front and 5/32” in rear and recommended new tires. He said that DOT recommends 2/32” but because Tesla is a heavy car, they...

So as the title says, I had one then another aero wheel cover "peel" off the rim. What I mean is that the when I went to look at the tire, I noticed that part of the wheel cover was pulled away from the rim, but still attached. I was able to bang it back. Any ideas what caused this? It has...

I have not seen this before, lots of Model 3’s available, long range avail in Nov/ Dec timeframe, what is this all about?

I am not sure which forum to post, so mods can move it if they wish. Recently I have noticed more Road Rage. It comes in 2 forms: 1. Multiple cars racing with each other on an interstate, weaving in and out at high speed. 2. A driver who thinks you are going too slow, gets up on your rear...

As we all know, there is no residual value/ lease buyout at the end of our lease. Normally I turn my leased vehicles in after 3 years and lease another car. New Tesla car prices are crazy. I priced my car today vs a little over a year ago when I leased it, cost is $11,000 more. That is a...

As a member of Costco I receive their monthly brochure. They advertise $150 off a set of 4 Michelin tires. Does anyone have experience buying tires for their EV from Costco and can they get the OEM Michelin tires (18”)?

It seems Costco has an exclusive on this foam car wash from Turtle Wax. Costco is selling it for $14.99 for 128oz (1 gal). That is a real good price. I will be at Costco tomorrow and tempted to pick it up. I read and seen videos you have to use a lot of it in the foam guns/foam cannons. Anyone...

I scheduled a home appt to rotate my tires and I reported a vibration/squeak when going over bumps which seems to be in rear right side of car. Appt was for tomorrow afternoon at my home. Just received a text from Tesla Service that they are rescheduling my appt until next week because they do...

2021 M3 Owner. In a few month I will need a NYS Inspection. I live in Westchester, who can I go to do the inspection? Worried about jacking up the car improperly. Do they even need to jack up the Tesla for inspection?

Like many of you I wash and detail my car in the Spring, Summer and Fall. We live in a condo development so the water is turned off for the winter. I have been reluctant to wash my car at a car wash that uses brushes. Problem solved. I found one in White Plains, NY, corner of Greenburgh Road...

Got my first speeding ticket yesterday, doing 49 in a 30. Does anyone have a recommendation from their personal use on a M3 and where do you mount it? thanks

I live in Westchester, NY near the Mario M. Cuomo Bridge (formerly the Tappan Zee Bridge). When they built the bridge they built a plaza for people to come and walk and ride their bikes over the bridge. They also put in 2 Level 2 chargers which are Free! I go there ever so often to charge and...

As the title of the post states, gave my car to a NYC parking lot and when I paid for the parking and walked to the car to drive off noticed the multiple scratches/gouges of the paint in the rear right of the car. I filled out the claim form that the attendant gave me, he and I both took...

I bought the EPAuto tire air compressor on Amazon for about $30. When I used it on my wife's Subaru Crosstrek, I set it for 34psi and when it turned off it was spot on. Then I used it on my M3, set it for 42 psi, and when it turned off, the display on the unit and confirmed by my gauge read...

Have a 2021 White Clear coast finish on the car. While taking a propane canister out of the back seat yesterday, I rubbed the canister on the paint in the door well. The good news is it does not show because the door covers it, the bad news is that I just barely touched the area and the paint...

I hope this is the correct forum Yesterday when I was driving on the highway I received multiple alerts on the screen of caution, regenerative braking was disabled, lane assist disabled, cruise control disable, can't remember them all, but were about 5 alerts. Car drove OK, but need more...

Today’s WSJ, front page has article about Tesla owners tricking their car into self driving mode. They keep discussing “auto pilot”, but aren’t they talking about Full Self Driving mode (FSD)?

So last night on the Tesla app I turned on Sentry Mode for my 2021 M3 (delivery 5/4). So when I went to the car this am, I noticed the battery drained about 5 miles overnight. This was no surprise, it is stated in many videos of battery drain. But what was weird was that even though Sentry...

I received my car this week, and wanted to adjust the tire pressure in 1 tire. My digital tire gauge fit over the valve just fine, but just made it because they do not protrude out too far. However, I use a hand bike pump to add air to my tires but with the aero hubs on the car the locking...

Just bought the 2021 M3. Had no idea that there was no XM radio. So I see people have SiriusXM on the phone and stream it thru bluetooth to the car. Since there is no SiriusXM app, my question is that while I am driving do I control the channel changes thru the phone or on the Tesla screen? Thanks

I just received an email from Tesla saying that the Tesla NEMA 14-50 adapter ($45) is back in stock If anyone needs one, grab it now before they sell out again and you have to pay a premium from Ebay sellers.

I wanted to write this because this forum has been very helpful to me to understand and live thru ordering and delivery timetables. First, I was incredibly lucky to get my car in 33 days after ordering. Ordered on 4/1, picked it up this afternoon, 5/4. White, Black interior, 18” wheels, non...

I live in NYS, front license plate required. For people who live in NYS and received a Model 3, was the front plate bracket already installed when you took delivery? It should come with the car but I really don’t want them to attach with that sticky stuff. thanks.

I have my M3 on order and thinking ahead. I want to remove the aero-hub caps and replace with the cap covers. There is a choice of 2. Please take the poll to help me decide. Which one do you prefer?

When you take the hub cap off the 18” wheel, I have seen both options: - Rubber/Plastic lug nut covers with center cap (5 pieces) or - Center cover that covers the lugs (1-piece) I keep going back and forth between what I like. I think I like the first option with 5 pieces for looks but...

I placed a custom order. Estimated delivery in June for LR-AWD. I need a car immediately so looking for local inventory. In the greater NYC area, there has been no inventory for the last 2 days. (200 mile range) What is weird that in CA, there are 3 inventory cars that match my order. Unless...

How does a a M3 come into “Inventory? Is Tesla giving discounts if you take a Demo?
