My car has 41k miles on it and I just installed my 14th and 15th tire on the vehicle. I think were at 6 nail pops :mad:

I honestly didn't know that, I've grown accustomed to "it's a Tesla, get used to it" that I didn't even consider there being a fix.

Heat gun and fishing line, heat until warm to the touch use fishing line like dental floss and pull underneath emblems from one side to the other. There are no rivets, you may need adhesive remover 3M makes an automotive one specifically for emblems and automotive tape. Very easy job!

I don't know if my hands are more oily than most or what but I can literally rub that off my trim with my hands it confused me initially I was just checking out what it was and noticed it comes off with light friction very easily.

We've taken our Y as far west as Missouri, as far east as Boston and literally everywhere between (we live in Michigan) and New York is the only state we have encountered full super chargers and that was before non Tesla can use them. No idea why, obviously demand is higher there than...

I haven't done a 100 to 0 test in my local area because my kids activities always put us on a highway but the few days between trips out of town I don't charge and I can get my rating down into 230-250 easily using my math if I can keep it under 240 the whole time you should be able to get about...

It’s under the autopilot menu called “lane departure avoidance” there is off warning or assist I use assist and it pushes your wheel back to the middle if you creep over the lines

I have a 21 and it certainly pulls the wheel back to the middle if I creep over the wheel, took a month or so to get used to it now I barely notice it.

Been babying the hell out of my wheels, interior, and paint since I got mine two years ago now. Went to Toronto, had a stressful afternoon getting out of the city into our hotel by the airport, parked in the parking garage to get everything unloaded and didn't even consider the concrete cieling...

Quotes are usually without taking anything apart, once they start peeling this apart I think you're right 26-32k to fix something like this. Depending on provider, and what state they're in, it could be totaled.

All back to normal now after an update, thanks for the tips!

I put about 18-20k miles on the OEM Goodyears they were measuring at just shy of 5mm but I didn't want to pay to mount them, and then have to pay to mount new tires in a couple of months so I have those in my garage and installed new Continentals 245 45 20 which match my winter Vredsteins 245 45...

My lifetime after 26k is about 320 kWh if I baby it around town I can get it below 240 but that isn't any fun. Same with my gas cars, I have a v8 Lexus that can rip but at 90 MPH it's getting like 8 MPG on a 18 gallon tank I can only go 140 or so miles between fuel stops, even at 320-350 kWh you...

Went from Detroit to Boston and back and did all the planning you did, I thought I was going to outsmart the car and use better stops from ABRP. I paid for the premium ABRP and FSD for the month I was going, and in hindsight it was unnecessary. Speed and elevation will kill your range, I like to...

Some fresh rubber installed 255/45/20 ran this size on my winters and like the look and feel better than stock might go up to 265 next time we’ll see 🤷🏼‍♂️

Also dealing with this on my 2021 MY LR, going to open a service ticket and see if they can help out, happy to see I'm not alone thanks for the help!

Hey everyone I've got my 2021 Model Y little over 25k miles on it, pretty familiar with my consumption and generally don't look at the chart I understand I can go between 180-230 miles on a full charge at highway speeds depending on temp and elevation in most scenarios I have encountered...

had a custom plate on mine, couldn't handle seeing every other tesla also with a custom plate so I ordered a normal plate. Weird mind trick I played on myself, but for whatever reason I didn't like the custom plate after I had it.

My 8 year old and whatever one of his friends is with us at any given time have never complained about the sun being in their eyes or feeling hot, we get up to nearly 100 degrees in the summer so while I don't think it's an invalid concern I do feel as if it was addressed in the planning stages...

I’ve done almost the opposite of what’s recommended (not all by choice) on my LR 21 MY. My battery has been at 0% for 3 months after an accident, I charge to 100% a few times a month, I have to supercharge 3-6x a month and with 14,500 miles I show 323 miles at 100% obviously it’s an estimate but...

If they try to send it to Cauley Ferarri in Farmington I would think twice. They repaired my Model Y and did a piss poor job, I still have to take it back for a third time to fix issues they left. There is a certified shop in Ann Arbor which might be a better option for you, I don't believe...

I had XPEL full front package (hood, headlights, bumper, quarter panels, a pillars, mirrors) with XPEL Tint on the front two windows for $2400 in Metro Detroit less than a year ago, NE prices are probably higher and driving to Detroit and spending 3 days here would eat up any savings you may...

While I don't disagree with you more range could be better, for driving with my son and wife we loose very close to zero time on road trips due to charging. My son has a thimble bladder, which he got from me, and even going over the speed limit on the high way you can get over 200 miles of...

None of you have kids? No one has ever had a snack in their car or used medication while on a road trip? Wish I lived such a waste free life as everyone above me but if you’re regular parent who drives longer distances I’d suggest this option: BASENOR 2022 2021 2020 Tesla Model Y Trash Can PU...

Has anyone found a way to format a T7 for the Model Y? I read everything I could find, the car gives an error when trying to format through the car so I manually added a TeslaCam folder and the drive was renamed but still can not figure out how to get it to work with sentry 👎

Oh yeah my older son played until midget it smelled like someone threw up in his bag they’re disgusting 🤢

Thankfully he’s only 8 and I still take care of his gear for him so we air it out and wash everything religiously and believe it or not there’s little to zero stink from his gear. His gear is small still so it fit in the sub trunk

Exactly 13,476 bugs met their demise on the way home from Boston 🤷🏼‍♂️Elon the murderer

Forgot the most important part, 4 of the kids I coach for fall and winter hockey made a select team for the summer. Two of them play ball also, my little guy brought his mitt didn’t catch any balls but made a ton of memories. Awesome experience for these 8-9 year olds but I think I had a better...

Detroit to Boston was a total success! Sitting in our hotel in Buffalo currently on our way home, but wanted to update everyone as a new ev road tripper how pain free this was. I generally go between 75-90 depending on speed limit and flow of traffic, I’ve seen miserable efficiency numbers over...

Sheffield Ohio and Erie Pennsylvania both worked flawlessly, on to Buffalo then sleep!

Starting my journey with my wife and son to Boston from the Detroit area, we've never done a trip further than Toledo and back with our EV but I'm really looking forward to the adventure and curious as to how accurate ABRP will be. I have stops planned in Sheffield, OH, Erie, PA, Cheektowaga...

Not any help to you other than I am experiencing the exact same thing, just subscribed Wednesday evening. No download, but the green light indicator works, the warning about stopping for traffic devices works, I also have the "blue box" pressed on navigate, but no navigate on AP. Can't figure it...

I’ve done it NUMEROUS times. Like mentioned, no harm what so ever. Last time I was going 80+ and laughed to my wife thank God Elon is smarter than I am or we would have gone for one hell of a ride.

You convinced me to try FSD I paid for the subscription but didn’t get any download, does it automatically update or do I need to try to force an update? Leaving next Wednesday night wanted to test it out before we’re on the road for real!

Finally got my car back after my accident, insurance paid to get my PPF redone, and I had them black out the a pillars with black Xpel PPF and wrap the mirrors in satin black to match the trim. Car looks less like an egg, I dig it!

Going from Detroit to Boston in 3 weeks, and reading this made me feel a lot better. Worried a bit about waits at super chargers in New England on Memorial day weekend but I've accepted it is something we may encounter and we'll handle that hurdle if we get there. Awesome write up, thanks for...

This was 26k of damage and looks like A LOT less damage than yours, I’m not an insurance adjuster but I would be shocked if yours isn’t totaled. Super bummer man I hope you’re taken care of sooner than later, mine took almost 5 months to get back 🤯 now that I have it back it’s almost as good as...

Not super helpful but I’m running the same version and I still have charge stats. Unsure why you don’t but can confirm this version of the app “should” have that included (and I love it, please don’t take it away uncle Elon)

Autopilot is considered driver assistance not fully autonomous, and it warns you frequently to have your hands on the wheel and ready to apply the brakes if necessary. Not trying to give you a lesson, but Autopilot is NOT 100% fool proof and there are many areas still that need to improved. It...

I was almost skeptical of chemical guys, feels like a gimmick and they have what I would deem as too many products, however after trying numerous lines I do think for the price CG has some of the best options. I use the pink soap, foam cannon and two bucket with wash gloves. Pressure wash...

I got hit on Black Friday and just went to pick up my car today, to find out it’s not repaired properly. Paint issues, alignment issues, panel gaps. I’m at a certified Tesla repair shop, that also is a Ferrari dealership so I was hoping for as close to perfection as possible and didn’t end up...

Not going to speculate on the damage or why the malfunctions but tell your friend he needs to secure another vehicle if he doesn’t have an extra in the garage because he’s not getting that back until July or August if he takes it in tomorrow.

I was hit on Black Friday and I still don’t have my car back, been 4 months with nothing. Back orders, faulty new parts, paint issues, battery issues, coolant leaks, and more. I love my car but I don’t even remember what it’s like to drive it and I’ve been considering selling it when I get it...

Well, if you don't want to super charge, and obviously will have to charge at some point(s) throughout the week I would weigh the pros and cons of having one at work or at home. Once you decide if at home or at work would be better then get to creating a presentation for your landlord at either...

Phew I thought I was losing it, I’m the same way it’s not sitting at a 45 but it’s certainly not straight and I want it as straight and centered as possible drives me nuts!

MPG goes down but certainly not in half, I have a LX570 absolute gas guzzler, but it's rated at 18MPG (never gets that no matter how slow I go) but even at 85-90 I still can get 12-13 MPG opposed to my normal 15 MPG. It's less than stated MPG no arguing that but unless you're pedal on the floor...

It's a catch 22, the car is an absolute rocket ship, but if you use it's potential speed you get NO range. We have a few highways that pace at 85+ and if you're going over 85mph you're lucky to get 100 miles of range on 80% charge, drop down to 70mph and your range shoots up but driving this...

Didn't even think of that, someone smashed into me on black Friday so it'll be a while before I have it back / a new one depending on what insurance says. Thanks for the tip!

That's what I don't understand, I don't use sentry mode, I don't have any apps other than the Tesla app. Before the accident I've left it at home 4-5 days and not lost a single percentage, I just checked for the first time this morning and it's all the way down to 180 miles making me think...
