    Screen Blacked Out

    I just had a black screen occurrence. We went into a store and when we came out, the MYLR let us in but everything was black. I kept trying things and finally, I don't think it had anything to do with what I had done, the T showed up the screen and everything came back. My question is how...

    Towing Casita Trailer with a MY

    Thank you. I'd appreciate the feed back on the your towing. Is the Boler 2500 LB dry or VGW? A Casita runs around 2500 dry but can be up to 3500 loaded. I just ordered a CCS adapter and have never used a non-Tesla charger. I would really appreciate a few tips to smooth the learning curve?

    MY Eating Tires

    On my 2021 MY, I only got 18,000 miles out of my ordinal OEM tires :-( And I'm gentle driver. I'm gathering tire data from this forum for the next replacement. I'm also interested in a better (softer) ride. I wonder if going from 19" to 18" wheels with more tire side wall might help the ride.?

    Charge Float Range

    I have a 2021 MY LR. We just wen on a 5 week vacation. I put the car on charge and set the charge limit to 50%. I was surprised when we returned yesterday and the charge level was 46%. Is it normal for it to drop this much below set point?

    Costco Bridgestone Run-Flat Tires

    Thank you. I'll check that out. You have to buy 4 from Tesmanian for, I think, for $30.

    Costco Bridgestone Run-Flat Tires

    Thank, I've wondered whether I should get these - I'll order a set from Tesmanian. I note when I take my MY to Les Schwab (West Coast tire chain), They don't use jack pads. When I asked about it, they said with their flat lifting pad they don't need them.?

    2023 Model Y Performance Suspension Question

    Thank you. That brings up more questions: I have 19" wheels. Will a bigger sidewall still fit with "chains"? Also, I assume lowering the pressure will reduce range.?

    Costco Bridgestone Run-Flat Tires

    For tire repair in an emergency, how about the repair kit from Tesla that pumps something into your tire to get you to a place you can replace the tire? I believe using this kit ruins the tire so... The kit is $70 on the Tesla shop site. Here's a link...

    2023 Model Y Performance Suspension Question

    I have a 2021 MY and the suspension is firmer than I want - I'm past my zoom around days. I remember a software update a while back that said the suspension would soften when in Autosteer. I couldn't tell any difference. What do I need to do to get a softer ride?

    Replacement Tires for 19" wheels

    Thank you. I agree. Do I remember reading that they are not available yet? Are you going to key an eye on them? I only got about 19,000 miles on my 1st OEM set on my 2021 MY and decided to just replace them to give me time to figure out what to do next (and learn how to use this forum)...

    new to Tesla and have a MYLR on order, what are the common issues and preventive measures for the MYLR?

    Wouldn't you notice uneven tire wear if the alignment is out? Where do you get an alignment done - can any alignment shop do it? I have a 2021 MY and only got 19,000 miles on my first set of tires and I'm a gentle driver. I rotated every 6,000 miles.

    How do you find Level 3 commercial chargers? Two years and I'm still on a steep learning curve. Bob

    CCS combo 1 adapter

    Thank you. You're right. I looked on the official Tesla sight, searched for the adapter and then it suggested I sign in - when I did, it said it will work for my 2021 Model Y. Has anyone used the CCS Combo 1 adapter? We've had our Model Y for a couple years and never needed a regular...

    CCS combo 1 adapter

    I'm interested in getting the CCS Combo 1 Adapter and it says to check my Tesla account to see if it will work on my car (2021 Model Y). How do I check this? Any comments on using this adapter?

    Preconditioning question?

    I wasn't clear. I didn't initiate the schedule for departure until about 45 minutes before I had to leave. E.g.: at 9:15AM I scheduled for preconditioning for a departure at 10:00AM. Another Question: Since I'm retired, I don't need scheduling every day of the week. How do I recommend to...

    Preconditioning question?

    I have noticed the last couple times that the car didn't precondition when using a scheduled preconditioning. It has worked in the past. I did set up the scheduled preconditioning about 45 minutes before desired time. Does it take longer than that? Temp around 40F.

    Windshield Wiper Fluid Sprays Down

    I have a 2021 Model Y. I note that the lower spray nozzle on the driver side wiper discharges downward. This sprays most of the washer fluid on the bottom of the windshield. There looks like there is another nozzle that would spray upward but nothing comes out. See picture. I tried inserting...

    1400 mile below freezing Model Y LR Road Trip

    Does foam in tires, noticeably reduce noise and noticeably increase range?

    Thank you again. This has been an educational experience. I wish I had started the trying to figure out what's going on and what to do about it before I needed new tires. A couple more questions: What is the quietest and longest lasting 19" tire that will work on a Model Y? Why don't Teslas'...

    Does foam in tires, noticeably reduce noise and noticeably increase range?

    I have a 2021 Model Y and some of my tires are at/below 2/32" tread depth at 18,000 miles. I've been rotating at 6,000 miles. Apparently this isn't uncommon. I have recently been told I should rotate at 5,000 miles. In trying to pick a better tire than original equipment, I wonder: Does the...

    Preconditioning w/SC the next stop in a multi-stop trip, Model Y

    I had a super charger as the next stop in a multi-stop trip on my navigation. The car did not precondition for the super charger? Do you have to have the Super Charge as the destination as well as the next stop? Bob

    Peeling steering wheel cover

    I have a 2021 Model Y. About 6 to 9 months ago I notice the "leather" starting to peel at the bottom of the wheel where it is seamed together. Now the leather has peeled to about a 1/2" spot. I assume this isn't warranty, right? Anybody have an idea on how to arrest the peeling? bob

    Ball Hitch

    The Model Y manual says I should use a ball hitch that has a 3/4" rise and is 8.5" from shank hole to pin hole. Where do you get something like this? U-haul has a ball hitch with a 1" rise and 10" from shank to pin - is that OK? Bob

    App is getting 500 server error. Cant connect.

    The only problem we're having here in Vancouver, Washington is with the phone app. Car seems to work OK. Can't precondition. Can I go out to the car and start preconditioning some how?

    Owners Manual Crashes Model Y Software?

    I have a 2021 Model Y and have the same problem. On contacting service they treat me like I don’t know what I’m doing which is true and suggest I find another way to use the manual. I had it happen again a couple days ago while driving and yes the car worked but I had no info including speed. I...
