    Windscreen washer nozzle missing? UK

    Tech came back with new wiper. Looks identical to the old one, Nothing was missing compared to the old one like he said was missing. Replaced the old one and declared it "fixed". I tried it, and the spray pattern was the same. I must have been imagining it. But I was sure the spray wasn't...

    Windscreen washer nozzle missing? UK

    Tech arrived today. Concluded that the nozzle was missing. Huh. Based on the original photo above which matches exactly what the OP posted and he said it sprays fine, I don't know what to believe. New wiper on order, coming back to install it next week...

    Summon not working at all, neither with the fob or the app

    Very interested in what they find out. I have a service guy coming this week to look into my wiper sprayer issues, thought I'd ask him if he had any info.

    Summon not working at all, neither with the fob or the app

    Same problem here. Lights come on, and then it quits. This is a recent change, but I can't be sure if it was related to the last update.

    Windscreen washer nozzle missing? UK

    My MY recently started spraying "weird" on the drivers side. Mine looks identical to the photo above. I don't know what is going on. One of them seems to be spraying straight down, but I can't really see what is going on when it's moving. I shot some slo-mo but still can't figure it out...

    Tire Rotation cost.

    I did the Tesla home appt too. He showed up on time and says, "Oh model Y performance, stagged sizes so we don't rotate them." So this is the first car I've owned that had different sizes front to rear, so it never crossed my mind when I scheduled it. I asked him why they even bothered to show...

    PPF: shop recommendation or DIY? [Bay area, CA]

    I'm not sure what "reasonable pricing" would mean when it comes to this stuff so can only relay my experience. When I was looking around I think I found out about OCD in Fremont from this forum. There is always a month+ wait to get in, and I had the car 2 months before going in and did a road...

    Is 44 cents per kilowatt hour expensive?

    Don't forget that the app will show you what the prices are for all the different times you might arrive.

    Is 44 cents per kilowatt hour expensive?

    Eighty cents. Ooof. Peak here in Summer is .58 for the EV plan I'm on.

    Aftermarket roof tint percentage?

    I considered getting it tinted, but the only place I trust charges a lot to do it. It was either 600 or 800, I forget. I also wasn't sure I'd like it once it was done, and then what? Re-do it again with a different % ? Ugh. I ended up with a Jowua sunshade for $100. I'm a complete idiot when...

    Is 44 cents per kilowatt hour expensive?

    15 cents at night!?!??! Wow. What a deal!
  12. DesmoDog

    Is 44 cents per kilowatt hour expensive?

    That seems really high for Florida, I always thought they had cheap electricity out there! But then again, I think Tesla sets the rates at the SC's. I have always heard that it's best to keep the battery at 80-90 for "daily driving" so that's what I did. 80% limit on an SC. There's endless...

    New Charging Scheduling Glitch—Explain This?

    So things seem to be working right. Although it seems the options vary between the car and the app. Tonight I tried it again. But in the car the option to 'start charging at X time' was grayed out. Only "leave by" was available Huh? On the app, both options were there. In fact I think the...

    New Charging Scheduling Glitch—Explain This?

    Guess I'm not all that clear on the differences between the two. I'm not using the "be ready to go at Xam". I guess it doesn't matter really.

    New Charging Scheduling Glitch—Explain This?

    Sorry, I don't know what that is/means ☹️ Sooo, this morning I thought I'd try it again. In the app I set it to start charging at 5:45. It was 5:15 at the time. I got in the car to go downtown and after parking I decided to see what the screen said. The "start charging" option was off. Well...

    New Charging Scheduling Glitch—Explain This?

    I'm encountering the same issue here. This is my first time attempting to use level 1 charging for extended periods. Initially, I had no problems when I simply plugged it in and it began charging as expected. However, I decided to set a specific charging time, which is when things started acting...

    When traveling, do you bother with trying to find hotels with EV charging? Can you depend on them?

    On a Winter road trip in 21 I stumbled onto chargers at 3 hotels along the way. All of them free to use. When I was looking to book places via Expedia there was no mention about chargers. I was pleasantly surprised to fine a lone charger at my hotel in Ashland. Charged to 100% overnight. On the...

    Brief FSD beta 11.3.6 report

    Much appreciated follow up ewoodrick, thanks much. 👍 I gave FSD two tries today with 11.3.6 and it flat out choked both times I tried it. I should have videoed it but it slipped my mind. Try 1 - Engaged FSD after making a right turn on 25 mph residential road. Coming up to a T intersection with...

    Brief FSD beta 11.3.6 report

    Is highway driving "different" with the basic smart cruise control vs FSD? I'm still confused about the differences. lol.

    Brief FSD beta 11.3.6 report

    Mine is installing this update right now. Sad to see this review. I basically gave up using FSD months ago, it was just to terrifying to deal with. Wasn't this supposed to be some huge improvement???

    Noob snow driver here - when do I need chains in snow?

    In California when conditions reach R2 in the mountains (There is a good deal of snow on the highway) the following rules apply - Requirement 2 (R2): Chains or traction devices are required on all vehicles except four-wheel/all-wheel drive vehicles with snow-tread tires on all four wheels. You...

    Can you spot the problem here?

    This is a neighborhood road. There is about 3 feet of clearance on each side. 25 is plenty fast. 55 would be insane. I was on a one way road and i wasn’t going to stop in the street to make sure all the camera settings were perfect before snapping it.

    Can you spot the problem here?

    I’m going g to go back and see if it is still an issue. This is a super heavy tesla dense area so if someone is on FSD and the car decides to do 55 on this stretch that could be a real problem. Happy to report issues like this if possible. it’s not just me on that road.
  26. DesmoDog

    Can you spot the problem here?

    Thanks for the info. I’d never encountered this before and found it a bit shocking when the car accelerated very hard. I don’t think I was using FSD beta at the time. This was three months ago. I think I activated the regular cruise mode. Curious what the process is to request updates from...

    Can you spot the problem here?

    I thought it may be fun to see if anyone put the pieces together. Obviously this is a residential street that is very narrow. Tesla thinks the speed limit is 55. Sorry to offend.
  28. DesmoDog

    Can you spot the problem here?

    I don’t think there is one. I turned left onto that street from another street that has a 35 mph limit the car started hauling ass. I don’t think this street has a 25 mph sign on it. It’s incredibly narrow and 25 is honestly a bit fast. I’m going to bring my gopro and try it again. This...

    Can you spot the problem here?

    Hahaha! :) That blurryness was partially due to the Dynoflex protective film I had installed last year. It was terrible. Kudos to OCDetailing for recently removing it and refunding me the cost.

    OEM Spoiler coming off on Model Y Performance

    Yep, OEM. As I recall he said that it wasn't the adhesive they use that Tesla uses that is the problem, it's that they don't use enough of them. So he simply adds an additional one and voila. It was done in about 30 seconds.

    OEM Spoiler coming off on Model Y Performance

    Call up OCDetailing. They wrapped my car and I watched the owner Joe put my spoiler back on using adhesive strips that have now been working great for 8 months. No issues.

    OEM Spoiler coming off on Model Y Performance

    This is what the guy (Joe) did when I had my full PPF applied. It was at first removed, they did the wrap, when I came back to get it he re-applied it while I watched. He used with some tape, but used more than Tesla does. I don't recall the type of tape, but it only took a couple of minutes and...

    Am I crazy for wanting to go from MY to M3?

    To each their own, right? I have zero interest in a sedan of any sort so neither the S nor the 3 was a consideration for me. It was a YP and that was that. LOVE the big space in the trunk, so easy to load stuff in. I love the ride height. I came from an Accord V6 which I will say likely...

    Sentry Mode Live Camera Access

    Ok, well that explains it. Thanks! My latest software update (yesterday) took me to 36.5.5, not 36.8 and I don't see any option to update to 36.8 Is that common, that the latest versions aren't always available?

    Odd behavior from auto cruise

    FWIW I’ve got FSD but not the surface streets beta. In cruise mode on a surface street I have noticed some weirdness in a specific scenario. There are several “pedestrian crossing lights” on a main route here. These are similar to regular lights but then only have two lamps and they are...

    OEM Spoiler coming off on Model Y Performance

    Wow, just a few weeks after you got it??? I asked the guy who delivered mine if that issue had been fixed. I guess not surprisingly he said yes. I will keep a close eye on it. Ugh.

    Model Y West Coast waiting room (June 2021 orders)

    Delivered to my house 34 days after ordering. I only had a chance to drive around in local traffic for a bit. Tried out a local supercharger and that was about it. Mine was delivered by Josh, who's the same guy who does the owner training videos on the Tesla site. He was great and there were...

    Thanks! I guess I got lucky, when I ordered it said 4-5 weeks. Today it's been 1 month and 2 days. Can't complain! I just completed the payment via transfer. That was slick. Login, choose bank, login there. Get text message to confirm Select account and boom, money is gone. Kinda scary...

    Two quick questions

    Ok here’s another random one. Do the USB ports stay “on” when the car is “off”?

    End of the quarter push!

    I orders MYP black interior on 8/25. At the time it was 4-5 weeks. Current EDD is 9/13-9/30. No vin yet.
