    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    Congratulations. I assume you'll be picking it up in Smithtown. That's where I got my last 2 Teslas. Very nice patient people. They took the time to make sure my app and car settings were correct before I left. Tesla has since opened a SC in Westbury. That's where I'll be picking up my...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Interesting. I never get glare from the screen. I do get significant glare from a cellphone sitting in the front charging cradle. Fingerprints are minimal, cleaning with a microfiber cloth every few months keeps it clean enough for me.

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I don't get the screen protector thing for the car. I have one on my phone in case it gets dropped or there's something abrasive in my pocket, but that's really unlikely in a car. I've had 2 Teslas for over 2 years now and all I do is wipe off the screens with a microfiber cloth from time to...

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    I live on Long Island NY less than 1/2 mile from the ocean on one side and 100 feet from a saltwater bay on the other, with a lot of salt in the air. My wall connector was installed totally exposed in my driveway on the side of my house in September 2021. It's gone through driving rain and...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    Anyway, I've been lurking on the main thread. Now that there's a dedicated white interior thread, I'll throw my hat in the ring. Order date 7 Feb LR red, white 18" EDD changes.. March April April May On March 3rd it changed to April 19 to May 24 And hasn't changed since then. This is my 3rd...

    Model 3 Highland White interior (US) waiting room

    I had to reply to this. The Ceylons also "had a plan", and it was just admitted by the show runner from 25 years ago that they never did. It just sounded cool. The writers thought they'd figure one out, but they never did. So you have to ask... Is Elon a cylon?

    Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

    You're going to love it. I have a 22 S LR that is spectacular. It took me 6 months to get it. I ordered a 2021 refreshed model S in July of 2021 and finally got a 2022 at the end of January 2022, so waiting 2 months for my wife's model 3 is a bit of a joke to me. I got the 19 inch wheels and...

    Tesla launches Model 3 Highland refresh in North America - No Performance model listed as of 01.10.2024

    There should be, but there will be other changes for the performance version including a different suspension setup and different seats. There may be other changes as well. Tesla is just getting the versions that will sell in the highest numbers out the door first.

    Tesla launches Model 3 Highland refresh in North America - No Performance model listed as of 01.10.2024

    I understand why the SR version doesn't qualify for the tax incentive as it's battery pack is Chinese. The LR though should be using the Panasonic/Tesla 2170 cells produced here. So shouldn't it qualify? Maybe Tesla has to recertify the battery pack for the LR. It's the same pack the...

    Windows displayed in visualization

    In fact, if you go to location for the car while your wife is driving, it'll show where she is with an update every few seconds. It is accurate enough to even show which lane she's driving in. I've been tempted to mess with her radio volume while she's driving and go in and out of pause and...

    At least the destination chargers are working. The facility looks ready to go.

    Upcoming Tesla Update (2023.12) to include steering wheel customizations and more

    2022 model S. Just got 2023.12.1. No text size adjustments. I was really looking forward to that, oh well. Maybe next time. The phone control from the left scroll wheel is a nice touch, though.

    Tesla has launched a ROUND steering wheel for the Refreshed Model S and Model X

    Yoke vs round wheel is definitely polarizing. I got my 22 Model S in Jan 2022 and have put almost 15,000 mikes in it since then. I liked the yoke right away and given the choice, would get it again in a heartbeat. I also have no problems with the lack of stalks, including the horn. As the...

    Vendor DRIVE Electric for Tesla, a wearable app for Wear OS - support

    I'm a bit confused about how this functions. If your app turns my galaxy watch 5 into a key card, then I have to tap the B pillar to unlock and get in, the take the watch off and put it on the card reader in the car to drive it, then put the watch back on and tap the B pillar as I leave to get...

    What does 'Software Update' actually mean in the Tesla app?

    As for when a new car receives it's first update, I got a 2022 model S in January 2022 and had the update preferences set to advanced and it was a few weeks before I saw anything. I recently got a 2023 Model 3 for my wife and as soon as I got it home the day I picked it up and connected to my...

    Auto pilot not adjusting to speed limit?

    I have never gotten this to work. I have a 2022 model S and a 2023 model 3. Both have only standard autopilot. If I have settings set to engage at speed limit, and I get on a road and engage autopilot below the speed limit, the car will accelerate to and hold the speed limit. It will never...

    2023 Model S - FasTrak Toll Tag

    I live in New York and have an EZ Pass transponder on my windshield to the right of the rear view mirror in my 22 Model S. It works without problems. I think the older cars had instaclear windshields with the metal film, but I don't see any signs of that in the current models. They now seem...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I had a terrific delivery experience Thursday morning. I was scheduled for 10:30 but I arrived about 45 mins early. The car was waiting for me all prepped. I took a close look all around it. The build quality was excellent. No problems. I went in and signed the paperwork, clicked a few...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Well, today's the day. I was originally scheduled for 12:00, but I asked yesterday morning through the text from the Tesla team if I could come earlier and they gave me 10:30. The new delivery time appeared in my Tesla app immediately. The car is red with a white interior. The standard...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Not so sure that's a good idea. These price drops were really significant. I believe they won't be changing the prices further any time soon. Maybe if you want to wait for the HD radar or the Project Highland changes, but otherwise, I wouldn't hold back now.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I ordered red with white interior. The red paint is still $2000. The white interior shows as $1,000 now. I thought it was $1500 when I ordered it. They lowered the base price to $43,990. Happy days!

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Ordered my M3SR red with white interior, 18" wheels on Dec 30. Original EDD was January 2023. After a few days it changed to Jan 14 to Feb 11, then this morning, i woke up to a VIN and delivery date of Jan. 26. If this holds, less than a month from order to delivery is quite nice.

    Venting....about future loss of vent function

    Yes, but you need to take off and nuke it from orbit. That's the only way to be sure.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    When you placed the order did you answer the question about a trade in? If you left it blank, they might just be trying to get the predelivery items finished off. If you're not doing a trade in, I would tell them that. In the past, making sure all the questions were answered tended to speed...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    When I ordered my M3 on Dec 30, it said estimated delivery was January 2023. This morning it changed to Jan 14 - Feb 11. I'm still hopeful that I get it this month. With a date of Jan 14, that would imply the car has already been built and is in transit. It took 3 weeks to transport my...

    Phantom Brake Crash?

    I also have a 2022 model S that I have put over 11,000 miles on. I don't have FSD, just standard autopilot. I have never experienced any PB instances like the ones discussed on these forums. On rare occasions on the highway, if the vehicle in the next lane started to get too close, the car...

    Refresh Model S/X - Adjust the Following Distance

    My work around for this is the command "autopilot settings". The correct screen pops up and you change the following distance. This is less than ideal but at least you don't have to dig around in the settings menu to get to it. Since you are already in autopilot mode, the quick glance to the...

    Lock Screen Widget on Android (Samsung S22 Ultra)?

    As far as I can tell this is an iPhone only thing. We can't do it in Android yet. I have a Galaxy S21+ and wasted about 30 minutes before I figured this out.

    How to make plaid accelerate faster ?

    Definitely lighter wheels and brakes will help, but even with other weight savings like gutting the interior, you reach a point of diminishing returns because the acceleration is ultimately limited to tire grip. As soon as the car senses tire slip, it dials the power back a bit to prevent it...

    Flash High Beams from 2021+ Model S with capactive button

    I'm pretty sure I just have to momentarily tap the headlight button on the left spoke to flash the high beams even when auto high beams are enabled in settings. It behaves differently with a short tap vs a long press.

    No Yoke

    There may be a very simple Tesla sourced alternative now. I believe the 2023 model 3 and Y are getting the same stalkless control layout of the refreshed S and X but are sticking with a round wheel. This should be a very easy swap. Personally, I have no issues with the stalkless layout and...

    Wow, 36.5 is out

    2022 Model S currently on 36.2. I have not experienced any of the bugs noted for rear screen, a/c, display or anything else negative. I have added the green icon for the new energy graph to the bottom bar of my display. It also works with the voice command. It fixed a bug it had where the...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I also would like to see the scroll wheel usable for changing the following distance. Until it's fixed, my workaround is to use the voice command "autopilot settings". The autopilot screen will pop up and you only need to then click the following distance. This way, only 1 click to change the...

    Please confirm remote live sentry view is NOT available on Model S 2020 and Android app in USA

    I have a 2022 model s. So the ui may be a bit different. In the car, Go to the Safety section. There is a slider that says view live camera via mobile app. That slider must be on. It's between the disable sentry sounds and dashcam selection buttons. Then it should appear In the Mobil app to...

    2022.36.1/2

    I did the update to 2022.36.2 today. I have a 2022 model s. I can confirm the new energy graph is included for the new model s. Also, the reinsert USB stick to get full speed bug also seems to be fixed. My wife is disappointed that the new caraoke feature only puts the words on the rear...

    Performance of Refreshed MSLR vs. others

    Finally glad to see "my" car in a drag race video. Right down to the tires I have. This does make me wonder if you could have gained a few tenths of a second with the Pirelli summer tires. That would have put it right at the claimed 3.1 seconds.

    Model S Plaid All Season 19" Tire Options/Questions

    I have a 2022 model s, not the plaid, that was delivered with the summer pirellis on the 19 inch wheels. The plaid uses the exact same size wheels and tires as the long range. I drove on the Pirellis for 3 months in the winter, very carefully, until Tesla swapped them for the all season...

    Missing Energy Screen

    Just updated to 2022.20.9. Still gone. It also disabled my radar. I'm on Tesla Vision now. Hoping I don't have problems with it. The old system worked extremely well.

    Voice Command to wash the windshield

    Correct. The whole point of my post was to explain why you don't want a voice command (which doesn't exist) for this function. The way it actually works is instantaneous and very easy.

    Voice Command to wash the windshield

    Normally I like voice commands, but I'm not sure I see any advantage in this case. To use a voice command, you would use your right thumb to press the voice command button, wait for system response noise. Speak the command, wait for it to be recognized and then the washer/wiper would cycle...

    Version 2022.16.x

    I'm assuming just bug fixes for 03. When it finished installing in my refresh S it opened my rear hatch. It showed as open in my Tesla app. I'm glad I did the update when I was still awake. If it had done it at 1:45 am like it wanted to, my trunk would have been open all night. I do see...
