    heated seats not working with app

    I don't mean to duplicate but I think I posted in the wrong section. As posted in the other section: I've noticed lately that my Telsla app on my iPhone will not control the seat heaters. Here's the scenario : I use the app to warm up the car and also the front seats. As of late - when I set...

    app not controlling Seat Heaters

    I've noticed lately that my Telsla app on my iPhone will not control the seat heaters. Here's the scenario : I use the app to warm up the car and also the front seats. As of late - when I set the inside temperature, the front seats appear to be on Auto (high default.) When I tap the seat icons...

    Headlight icon

    While in a parking lot last night I discovered something... After dark, I like to turn off the headlights while I'm parked, but still in the car. I've always went through the menu system to turn them off. Just out of curiosity I tapped on the headlight icon right under the displayed...

    Unlimited charging

    What’s this all about? How can Tesla offer free charging at those hours for $25.?? Or is this just for other states or those who have solar power?

    Frunk Light

    Did you know that if you press on the light inside the frunk, it will open if you are locked inside? Just for giggles today, I pressed it and you could hear the frunk release mechanism engage.

    Sentry mode without locking your doors?

    Does sentry mode work even if you don’t have the doors locked. Quite often times I will leave the car and go somewhere and realize that I did not lock the doors and I put it in sentry mode. Does it still record sentry mode events even though I didn’t lock my doors?

    Montana to initiate EV tax

    Montana will implement an EV tax for all EV drivers in the state, July 1 of 2023. It flew through legislature with nobody to really stop it. Total extra tax on vehicles under 6000 pounds will be an additional $130 per year. I guess it was just a matter of time before they got their share. New...

    Keeping the battery warm

    Decreased my charge limit to 5 AMP’s And increased my charge level to 90% so that the battery would stay warm in this frigid weather. So this is obviously working - because the interior is at -9F and the heat from the battery must be warming the interior slightly. Climate is off inside the...

    CCS1 adapter strain.

    I've noticed the few time that I have used the ccs1 adapter - it seemed to have a quite a bit of strain on the adapter. Especially in the colder weather, trying to get the supply cord from the charge unit to the car is very cumbersome. You have to twist and crank and turn and sort of force it...

    Off road mode?

    Off road mode question: On slippery icy roads the tail end of my Y seems to kick out occasionally. Putting it into 'off road' helps quit a bit. I guess my question is -- Will there be any harm to leave it in that mode for highway speeds. I'm sure it'll use more 'juice' - but if it helps on...

    Charging a Tesla on a VW account

    So if you have the CCS1 adapter for your Tesla, can you use your Electrify America account that is tied to your Volkswagen ID4 to charge your Tesla? Do the Electrify America Chargers know which car is attached to their charge units?

    Electrical buzz

    I noticed as of late, that when I charge my model Y, the conduit that supplies the 60 amp circuit to my wall connector is making a buzzing noise. I can’t tell if it’s coming from the conduit itself or the wall connector, or the wiring inside. I haven’t noticed this sound before. I can’t tell if...

    Pin doesn't give cost.

    When navigating to a destination, clicking on one of the Supercharge Stations along the way, it would give you the cost per Kwh. Is that no longer available? I used to skip a charge stop for one that was a few cents cheaper. No big deal, but I do like to know in advance what the cost will...

    Evaporator coil question

    If the evaporator coil is used for cooling, I can see where the condensation could cause your air filters to get wet, in other words stink. But is the evaporator coil also used as a heater coil? If not where does the heat come from ? Is the coolant reversed and he pushed back through the same...

    Amperage question

    After pulling into an RV park today and using my adapter for the mobile charger I plugged it into the 14-50 outlet but the charger only seem to pull 32 A. Is this correct or should it be able to pull more? The 14-50 plug did have a 50 amp circuit breaker on it. I thought I would be able to pull...

    Nephew's FB comment

    One of my nephew's comments on Face Book yesterday caught my interest. He's a kind of a motor head that loves '70's muscle cars. Great body man and mechanic. He re-posted a short article slamming electric cars, the power grid, government forcing us to go electric (you've all see them) without...

    Odd pattern on windshield

    Just noticed this odd pattern on my windshield this morning after the 44.30 update. It hasn’t been out of the driveway for at least a couple days. Any clues? I have never seen that pattern before even in the worst of weather!

    Feet are frozen

    For the life of me I can't keep my feet warm. Granted it is below zero here, but my feet are cold. I tried overriding the auto climate and directing it to the floor, but it's like not much air is directed there. When climate is on auto the rest of me and the cabin seem fine. Any advice...

    Blackbird

    At one time I could request the car to play the song “Blackbird” by the Beatles and it would play. But now it looks like it will play but then it just skips over it and goes on to the next song. Anybody else notice this? A few other requests do the same.

    What's my REAL usable battery?

    OK, figure this out for me. Model Y long range AWD -March 2021 build. Live in SW Montana - lots of hills, and you need to drive the interstates at least 80~85 to keep from getting run over. Charged to 100 percent -- drove 234 miles, down to 9 percent. 64 KW used during drive. Nagged me to...

    Window problem

    I just noticed this this morning. After a new passenger exited the car by the emergency handle, a notice popped up on the display informing me of the 'violation.' Now, I don't know if it's my imagination or it has always been this way .... but .... Now when you shut the front doors, the...

    Took delivery March 22! Pretty much a flawless build. Super happy. Dreaded what to expect the week before. Ordered on a Friday morning March 12 at 4:00am - had all the paperwork and details worked out by 4:00 pm the same afternoon. I waited until the President signed the stimulus bill. Order...
