    Car is recording the whole time parked

    Thanks for your comments. What threw me off is I’ve had the car a while and previously only noticed sentry as those small events. In this case, I had an hour long sentry clip, but no dashcam file from the drive to that location

    Car is recording the whole time parked

    Correct, I have this turned off at home. However, it’ll record the hour I’m at a grocery store for example

    Car is recording the whole time parked

    Noticed on the OEM usb stick, the car started to not record dashcam videos but would record the entire time while parked. Thought stick was on the way out, so put in a Samsung T7 but it’s doing the same thing. Any thoughts? Both were reformatted as well

    Are your MY AC vents blocked off?

    I was in the passenger seat when I took that pic. Just hoping someone can take a look at theirs and see if they also have that plastic piece blocking the middle or if it’s just me

    Are your MY AC vents blocked off?

    Hey all, can someone check to see if you see the same thing on your MY? I noticed minimal air was coming from the PS compared to DS and on the PS there this plastic piece that is blocking most of the middle of the vents. It’s not movable. On the DS, all the vents are showing where on PS, only...

    Passenger side AC vents blocked

    Lol, what’s weird is this plastic seems to be one piece (molded). That’s why I’m asking if someone else can take a look at theirs and check

    Made In China Model Y has 15.5 Lithium battery to replace 12V lead-acid

    So if the current system charges the 12V battery, why does it seem like it fails so soon? On cars that I use a battery tender on (especially during winter) the batteries seem to last years (4 yrs +). I don’t recall the last time I even changed a battery. On a separate note, is it pointless to...

    MY Front Window Tint Only

    $150 per pair sounds right for ceramic. Rear glass is 25%

    Warning: Tesla punished me $4000 on adding configurations to my orders when reservation

    Unfortunate that this happened but like anyone who regularly reads the forum knows, any changes means the order gets updated to today’s price, whatever that may be

    First 2022 VINs (and changes) discussion / Thread

    Exactly right. They also dont know, so only way to technically guarantee would be for the car to be produced in the year

    Are gaps from black plastic to bumper normal?

    Thanks, guys. Appreciate it. Wasnt sure what I should be logging vs what’s within spec for Tesla

    for clarity, first pic is front bumper, second is rear bumper

    Tinting sides only - 15 front, 55 rear to match?

    Any pics for how uniform it looks? @wynnek I ask because your rears are pretty different from @JLOC Any issues with 15% visibility wise? I’m used to the 20s in my current car. Did they also tint the small windows in the rear to match or were they already dark enough?

    Tinting sides only - 15 front, 55 rear to match?

    Read through a few threads and just trying to confirm, but has anyone gone with 15% for front side windows and then 55% for the rear? Not sure if the right math is 25% factory VLT * 55% new tint = 13.75% which is close to the 15% up front and should look even. Do I need to tint the small rear...

    First 2022 VINs (and changes) discussion / Thread

    Agree. I dont need a car until Jan so looked into delaying until then. The issue is depending on who you ask the answer changes. One advisor said I would go to back of the line and another said no promises but maybe I would be in the middle .

    All-Weather Tyres for Model Y with 19" Wheels

    I’d look at the Michelin AS4 and Conti DWS06 as well

    Will Jan 2022 deliveries be 2022 models?

    The offloading of demos had to do with closing the quarter. They sold off demos in Q2 as well (I couldnt even find a car to test drive back then)

    First 2022 VINs (and changes) discussion / Thread

    It sounded like @Gurule92 was comparing what is preferred, a 2021 with low miles vs. a 2022 with higher miles. There’s no question all else equal consumers would take a newer year if everything is the same. There’s nothing to even test in that scenario as the newer year car wins every time

    First 2022 VINs (and changes) discussion / Thread

    I’d agree with you. Let’s consider: For sale at the same price same options: 2021 with 5K miles 2022 with 25K miles No known updates between the two model years. My guess would be the 5K mile car sells faster and even with trade-in, would get higher value. Can test this by getting a...

    Plastidip vs. hyperdip for Geminis

    The gloss colors look interesting, my only concern there would it look “plasticity” the shadow seems like a pretty safe satin finish

    Plastidip vs. hyperdip for Geminis

    Thanks, it had seemed most Model Y videos and pics I saw were using plastidip thus my question. To your point though, I want something to look smooth and as close visually to powdercoated as possible

    Plastidip vs. hyperdip for Geminis

    Thanks for your comment! I was close to buying Plasti Dip but figured let me ask to see the benefits of Hyperdip.

    Has anyone compared the difference on Gemini wheels? Wondering if hyperdip is worth 3x the price

    Pulled over for no front plate?

    Really depends on your area. I’ve found police typically won’t just pull you over for no front plate if nothing else is up (especially if it’s a nice car). Also, I’ve found that the nicer area, the more chance police are spending time chasing after things like tint and plates. Cops don’t care...

    Current Delivery Times

    I did a search but was curious if anyone knows the time from when you get a VIN, to when the car was/is built and then how long it takes to arrive to the SC for for pick up? (Eg VIN on Jan 1st, car is made roughly a week after, and you pick up 2 weeks after it’s built)

    Agreed, everyone I know that has DIY epoxy has all had it lift afterwards. Either have it professionally done or lay Racedeck type tiles over your current floor and call it a day

    Y Performace vs LR?

    Something to keep in mind with the Conti’s on the 19s. There’s not a ton of reviews on them on Tire Rack, so sample size is still small. When I did a search, there were people who were happy with both the Conti and Goodyears (Gemini and Induction) as well as others who thought they were crap...

    Y Performace vs LR?

    I’ve been into fast cars for as long as I can remember. For a family car, the LR was fast enough and I wanted a comfortable ride (which is appreciated 100% of the time vs. the times you need to punch it). Will get AB, just cause, and call it a day. I’d regret it more if it was a harsh ride...

    Consensus on brand and percent window tint for matching rear windows

    Based on what I’m seeing, it seems like 15% on front sides and 80% on the back windows would give a good match. 20% appears to be good if the rears dont add tint.

    Would you get this repaired?

    I personally wouldnt want it repainted. Is there anything they can do to fill and make it less noticeable?
  45. S

    APPALLING quality control; alignment!

    While I understand your frustration, after driving 100 miles anything could have happened to the alignment. As such, once it was pulling I would have flagged it for repair

    Y Performace vs LR?

    Agree. People have hard enough time getting regular warranty claims through without jumping through hoops, nevermind after it’s modified. Bottom line is mods are great, but you gotta play to pay.

    RPM "Sale" prices seem shady

    Looks like they re-sell what you can buy elsewhere at higher prices
