    Picture of your Model Y - Right Now!

    Some more snow fun with the Tesla and the M3. The model Y is amazing in the snow with all season tires

    All seasons are absolutely fine for winter driving when you have all wheel drive. All my awd cars in the past had all seasons and I had no issues at all.

    Small accident - OK to go to a non-Tesla certified shop?

    I was sitting in a parking lot and some guy swiped me. He was okay about it and it’s all covered by insurance. The fix will include a small dent removal and a respray, plus replacing the plastic wheel arch trim. I’m also tempted to just polish out the scratches and leave it as is… Would there...

    Tesla rescues a snow-stranded BMW

    I just had to share. All season tires on a model Y performance are absolutely amazing in the snow. The video below shows you there is no need for dedicated winter tires. Skip to 8:00 minute mark If you want to see the Tesla piece :)

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    You’re absolutely right and I agree. I just felt I ran out of options. Funny thing is that it still makes me want to drive a Tesla.

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    Quick update. Got my car back after 16 days or so and all is well…for the post past. Service experience was absolutely horrible but at the end of the day we all knew it since this is a fairly new car company. I love the car so much! Service…not so much.

    Battery management question

    Here is the thing. You can inconvenience yourself and stop at a supercharger, that way you can preserve the battery for whoever buys the car from you (and you’ll pay more versus charging at home). I say charge it at home 100% and enjoy the car without having to worry about where to stop and...

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    So here is the thing. Even though I’m going through this problem, I still like the brand. Stuff happens. And aside from the fact that the loaner was filthy, it is not a terrible thing to go through. I just hope they piece my car back together the right way.

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    Ok so after 9 days I was told my battery has been received. No word on when the car will actually be ready. On a similar note - Tesla corporate contacted me saying they were made aware of my online post about being unhappy with the loaner and offered to make things right. I declined. But I...

    All Seasons MY P

    Ugh. I picked up my car 3 weeks ago and got Pirelli tires. Ended up getting 265 front and 295 rear Michelin all seasons. Zero regrets because 265 and 295 fit the wheels a lot better and there is no stretch

    Calling wheel experts: MYP oem tires on aftermarket wheels

    Since I have a sent off brand new oem Pirelli takeoffs, initially I was going to sell them but now I think I’ll use them on a set of new wheels. My question is: what are the widths and offsets of aftermarket wheels which will give me a nice aggressive look without spacers, but no stretch on...

    Model S seats in model Y?

    Thanks!!! I will be pursuing this sometime soon. Only issue is that S seats have adjustable headrests through the screen. But I can live without it

    True. Sucks for them. I wonder who eats the cost - battery manufacturer or Tesla

    Testing home charger without car?

    Easy to test. Turn power off then on. If all five green lights light up, it works fine. It’s all in the manual. I installed mine a few weeks ago. You should also set up its wifi. It will tell you what the voltage and amperage read is.

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    Looks like we are in the same boat. I wonder if it’s a recall Tesla is trying to keep under wraps. My SA specifically said “battery cell delamination” which Sounds serious.

    By the way hope you read the description 265 35 front. In the video I mentioned 275 front which was wrong.

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    Brand new Model Y P needs a battery replacement.

    Got a call last week from Tesla to bring my car in ASAP. Dropped off today to find out I’ll need a total battery replacement. Apparently my vin qualifies for a recall due to delaminating battery cells. Should take about two weeks I was told. Sucks. And they gave me this old and dirty model...

    Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on Uberturbines- 265/35 & 275/35R21

    Zero rubbing. I do not see why it would to be honest with you. There’s plenty of clearance. I filmed a video about the tire swap and I will share it shortly

    Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 on Uberturbines- 265/35 & 275/35R21

    They feel perfect, a little softer compared to the summer performance tires but zero robbing and no increase in noise. Plus I have the added satisfaction of knowing that the rim is slightly better protected.

    Guys and gals, 275 35 21 front and 295 35 21 rear are the way to go. No reason to do 265 40 front.

    Model Y rear ended while parked. Cosmetic only? Or will there be additional hidden damage?

    I don’t see the issue. Pull back the weather stripping and you’ll fix it for free.
