    Is the Cyber truck like a modely for towing equipment?

    Just curious didn't find it on line,,,, to get a hitch on a model Y you have to have Tesla do it, they have to program the motor controller for towing (Its part of the hitch cost) I noticed one on display here in Portland did not have a receiver.... if a model 3 hitch is over 1000 dollars how...

    Anyone planning to color wrap your CT?

    I had friends that owned New Deloreans, back before wraps were a thing , within a year of purchase they either sold them or painted them,,,, The endless detailing to keep the stainless nice just ate them up. Then there were the interesting hand and other body part prints that ended up on a...

    If you cant add to your panel, for an upcharge the installer might be able to install a small secondary panel and it gets tied in parallel with its own breaker so its only limited by your transformer feeding your home..

    I think I know why sc are so bad

    Diagnostic tools identify symptoms not fixes,, for fixes you need experience on the vehicle and basic intuative skills at troubleshooting. Example the average OBD2 car has up to 20 or so codes that say O2 sensor. Guess how many actually identify that its really bad? Exactly 1. And even it iis...

    Static/noise in radio on FM any time the cameras are on and the car is moving.

    My Oct 2020 M3 SR+ RWD, when your backing up and the cameras come on I get this strong static in the sound, same thing happens when I turn on a turn signal and the lane watch camera comes on. Had it in to service twice, "Its a known bug in my cars firmware...." We did do the recall on the rear...

    Possible Solutions for the New User Interface UI 11?

    Time for some legislation ,, sadly ,,,, that limits what UI changes can be made without customer permission. I'm all in favor of updates to fix bugs but the last update sucks. Need a list of minimum 100% full time 1 touch accessible features. I want all the normal car switches locked on the...

    Quiet Tire replacement recommendation

    I think your right on it, My 330xi was a dang good snow car with any tire the DWS was the best one I could find that wasnt stepping to a pure Ice capable tire like a blizzak. I have run the Michelin X-ices on a ev and they are very very good, and they actually give a Mileage warranty on them...

    Wall Connector or 240V Charger adapter

    Hmm interesting , both my other EV's charged well over 30 on the same wall unit, only the Tesla stops me at 32 or 30 depending on the day of the week. I also have noticed the same issue at L2 charging stations. My current wall unit is hard wired in to a 60A breaker. So no plugs in the way. FWIW..

    Quiet Tire replacement recommendation

    The DWS seems to just have more grip in any direction.. I don't spin the rear tires as much now and no comparison in how much better they are in the wet.. I haven't tried to panic stop it .. Now I need to wait for my wife to get home and go for a drive.. :) I do kind of push on it a bit when...

    Quiet Tire replacement recommendation

    Put stock size Continental DWS06+ on my car last week (Late 202 M3 RWD) I've run them on many cars and was never happy with the Michelin's the car had on it, they were at best a "ok" tire.. The DWS06+ is close to the same sound level as the original Michelins with the foam liner, but the...

    Wall Connector or 240V Charger adapter

    Didnt see it mentioned, but the "regular" wall connectors, Seimons/GE and others only give you 30/32 charge miles per hour ,, you have to use the Tesla branded wall connector to get 44 charge miles per hour.. Anybody else had a different experience?

    Dash function and layout after last update, not

    Just venting a bit,, I really really hate what the last update did to the dash on my M3, I really want base controls on the main screen. Heater/Lights/Wipers. It wasn't bad before I could do the swipe to get the wiper selection. Now nearly every function is buried under at least 1 layer of...

    Dashcam implementation is idiotic

    LOL "NO" It now biffs you to anywhere but a human. "Use the service app" click. FYI you have to honk twice on my 2020 M3 to get it to save footage 1 honk doesnt do it, found out the hard way today I lost the footage of a hit and run on my car. (Wife was driving and called me I told her to...
