    Ohlins coilover vs. MPP Comfort Coilover comparison

    According to Ohlins' documentation, my suspension specialist who installed it, and the internet, I should get them inspected every 2 years or so. This doesn't mean they'd need to be rebuilt or have any work done to keep them in top shape, but it seems like since I'm not tracking them and...

    Ohlins coilover vs. MPP Comfort Coilover comparison

    Yeah I know MPP uses KW and UPP has a super high end setup using Ohlins DFV. I'm sure they're all somewhat close to one another overall. I went for a custom Swift coil for my Ohlins R&T to maximize the comfort in every way I could. I hit it right on the nose for my targeted performance. Its...

    Ohlins coilover vs. MPP Comfort Coilover comparison

    Very anecdotal, but the EV mechanic who installed my Ohlins R&T coilovers on my MYP said they were the best of all the coilovers he's installed in any Tesla, including MPP, UPP, and some lesser known brands. He's a certified UPP installer as well. so it was surprising when I came to pick it up...

    Winter Driving Experience Mount Rainier National Park - Model 3 LR AWD

    You'd have to pay SC rates, which can be 3-5x more expensive than residential rates. Charging the battery to 100% once in a while and not letting it sit there for long is completely fine. The battery is there to be used when you need it.

    MYP!

    As an anecdote, since I swapped out my suspension for an Ohlins R&T coilover, my MYP has been INSANE going around corners, approaching my wife's Model 3. I cant believe how much the Ohlins got rid of body roll and it feels like its on a rail. Obviously the M3 is still superior, but the...

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    That was what my above comment was asking them. I dont have a need since I already have the RT kit, was just curious though as I stumbled upon it

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    I don't seem them available for Model Y on the product page anymore, only the R&T. The Model 3 page still has them showing. Maybe since theyre offering the springs and RW fork as options on the R&T as upgrades theyre just going to have one listing going forward and you can configure as needed.

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    You still selling these GT/Sport/Performance versions of the Ohlins? Looks like your website took down your version and you only sell the R&T Ohlins now.

    Battery drain after 2022.24.8 Software update?

    The screen and interior of the car are automotive grade. They’re completely fine in the hot cabin and overheat protection wasnt for that.

    Ohlins RT Model Y and Redwood Review

    I dont believe theyre different per Ohlins' RT owners manual. It notes that both the front and rear have 20 clicks each. Someone else on the TMC forums posted that they asked Ohlins why it goes further than 20 and anything past that isnt adjusting the ride at all. 80 clicks might just be the...

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    I understand but must have misheard, because per all their literature and online reviews, it has nowhere near 80 clicks of adjustment. Have you started from one end (soft/firm) and clicked all the way to the other end?
  14. R

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports Model Y - Ohlins DFV (Performance and Grand Touring Specs) - RE-STOCKED

    Where are you getting these click amounts from? Redwood's Ohlins kit claims it has 32 adjustable clicks and the Ohlins RT kit claims it has only 20.

    Worth buying an M3P at this point?

    The Performance S was faster before the 2021 refresh with only dual motors. It was hitting sub 2.5 times. It’s not just the third motor.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    The iPhone 3G is so slow its almost inoperable and it hasnt been updated since iOS 4 from 12 years ago. Not to mention the 3G network is being shut down in a month by ATT, so the phone will be actually useless shortly. Yes Teslas in 5 years will be way more advanced, but Tesla provides...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Theres quite a difference between a car thats 13 years old and a phone. The car will still get you from A to B, which is the main feature of buying one lol. Having the latest chip will help your car from being deprecated in software updates for a longer time than keeping the same chip thats...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    An advisor just sent me an email this morning telling me my car rolled off the production line today. Your EDD seems more related to your configured options and location than when your hold came off.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    It doesn't. Had a hold from mid December to January 1st and the car is being built now and delivery is expected in a week. If I ordered my car on Jan 1st, I'd be expecting to get it in February-March roughly.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Not always the case. I accepted delivery of my MYP and the advisor helping me had card keys on her to the car. I couldn't do much with the screen until I hit 'accept delivery' but I did that already sitting in the driver's seat

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Have a order placed in early November, put on hold until 1/1 but taken off automatically on 12/31 and had an EDD of 3/1-3/29 this morning. Just checked again and it disappeared. I agree with the idea that they’re probably doing updates right now and hopefully will move that order up to January...

    2022 MY PPF quote

    Yeah sure, you can get chips anywhere on the paint. I found the flaps reduced the design flaw though of the front wheels directly kicking back to that panel. My panel still looks perfect 6 months later. Was just a suggestion if they thought the PPF film doesnt look good like I thought.

    2022 MY PPF quote

    Just throwing this out there as an option, you can try adding mud flaps to the front wheels. I did that to my Model Y instead of getting the lower rear door panel PPF because I didnt want the edges of those PPF films to show. Mud flaps have worked well so far preventing the kick up of stuff...

    Ordered Model y for delivery in May 2022

    I love when people throw this out there when they have a bad experience with a company. The BBB has no power whatsoever over companies and people don't pay attention to their website anymore than they do Yelp or Google Reviews.

    2022 MY PPF quote

    Yeah that sounds about right, actually a pretty good deal. Mine was about $2,100 for the green part on my MY. Weird that someone would do green and yellow but not the rear of the car. At that point just finish the entire thing lol.

    Gen 3 Tesla HPWC 18'

    Selling my used Tesla HPWC that is the 18 foot version. Has worked great for the last two months, I just needed a longer cable so I went with the 24' version. All materials included as you'd receive in the package directly from Tesla. I basically just swapped the faceplate/cable onto the...

    FS: Model Y 21” Uberturbine Wheels/Pirelli P-Zero Tires/TPMS

    Selling my factory set of Uberturbine wheel and tires. Lightly used, took them off my MYP at about 2,000 miles. One rear wheel has a small scuff (see photo) which Im trying to take into pricing accordingly. Wheels are ceramic coated with CQuartz (included photo of water beading because I love...

    Refreshed 2021+ Model X and Model X Plaid waiting room

    Could you remove the FSD and then just purchase it separately later, basically unbundling the two purchases? Not ideal if you were going to finance it but I'd probably go for that to avoid the tax. Avoiding that tax almost pays for FSD in itself too which is crazy. Hoping for the best for you.

    Suspension Clearances for Wider / Taller tires

    Awesome to hear about the rear tires. I agree, Tesla really should offer something for people who get a MYP but don't live in California and experience real winters. At least allow the option to de-spec the wheels down to Gemini or Induction from the factory, or even work with a company to...

    Suspension Clearances for Wider / Taller tires

    I just ordered the same set of tires and wanted to ask if you've noticed at issue with the rear tires. The TireRack guy called me to ask if I thought the back would fit and I can obviously see from your pictures that they do, but I wanted to know if you experienced any issues when going over...

    Tires: Model Y Performance with 21" Ubertines

    Make a warranty claim with Michelin. Their usual warranty is usually either 30k or 60k depending on the tire, but because they're offset, the amount is halved (so 15k or 30k).

    Current Delivery Times

    Demo cars will (normally) still be considered new, as you will be the first person the cars been sold to and registered under. That would make you eligible for tax credits. Unfortunately some dealers stupidly register their demo units and it jacks everything up for all involved.

    Current Delivery Times

    And I'm going to reply to my own post by also giving advice for anyone searching the existing inventory. Don't turn down cars with FSD. It's dead simple to pull it off the car order, even demo units. I had originally asked a Tesla rep on the phone and she said I'd just have to call and ask to...
