    Tax email

    THANKS! Stinks that there's a big hole for those of us that purchased in 2022 but guess that's the luck of the draw :(

    Tax email

    Got an email from Tesla Inc today saying M3 is eligible for a 7500 tax credit. I thought the tax credit vehicle cap was passed for tesla long ago. Maybe they raised it. So here's my question, if I purchased mine in January of 2022, is there now a way to claim the credit because at the time I...

    Tesla EV Tax Credits coming back?

    I ordered my M3LR in Oct and received it in Feb of this year. At the time, so many of us were talking/waiting for the Build Back Better plan. Well I missed the boat and I cannot imagine it will be retroactive this late in the year....but I'm holding out hope for all of you that you get some...

    My Supercharging experience... Is this right?

    Thank you ALL. So very helpful. Between this and additional time with the vehicle I am learning a lot and now understand the charge rate and how it slows....appreciate the education.

    Air Conditioner Noise

    All of a sudden, yesterday, I noticed my air conditioning is super loud outside the car. My car sounded like an airplane engine. I have only had the car since Feb and don't recall this but it could also be because it was 94 degrees and hasn't been quite that hot often. Maybe I am just...

    My Supercharging experience... Is this right?

    First long trip this past week. M3LR. Did 2 different charges at two different supercharger locations. Both times I charged from 17% to 95%. Both times this took ~50 minutes. I had planned on it but is this really right? Their own literature says 175 miles in 15 minutes. I got less than...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Yes typo my bad. Just not sure if motor is 82 or 75 kwh as I've seen both on the Internet.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    OK I am 2000 miles into my M3LR and LOVING IT! I cannot make heads or tails of the energy widget (not sure why it breaks down into 5, 15 and 30 mile increments or what it means) I'm trying to figure out my average range and wondering if I am doing it correctly. My wh/mi over 2k miles is 251...

    Model 3 silicone wiper blades

    Honestly wiper blades are the BIGGEST scam in automotive. The prices are absolutely ridiculous considering the cost to manufacture. Oh well.

    Wiper icons

    Because the auto feature doesn't always work well (sometimes way too fast or slow) I do understand this. My suggestion is that I wish there was an option to leave the menu on at all times. There's plenty of white screen there that's not used anyway. Any why force the user to do an extra...

    Wiper icons

    Anyone else who feels the wiper controls would be off staying on the bottom left of the screen all the time (or at least the ability to toggle and leave there vs disappearing)? I just find it winds up causing extra button pressing by going away and always requiring a button push on the...

    I get that but it would still fall far short of the advertised range.

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    6 weeks in here on my M3LR. I am getting between 255-275 range FWIW. I cannot understand for the life of me how they can advertise 350 or whatever they advertise. It's one of the very few things I'd complain about. For me honestly anything over 150 is probably fine. It's more the principal...

    Electrician coming - final verification

    Working well. No info specifically but I will say the cost of the wire was insane. I can't recall exactly now but I think it was close to $200 for a 40 foot run.

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Hello all. Have had the car a month now (M3LR). Was curious about actual range given I typical drive under 50 miles per day. So this morning I checked. I started at 82%, then drove 20 miles. No crazy acceleration. Half highway at 70mph and half rural at 45mph. Took 7% battery. So that's...

    Where are my other stations?

    I actually figured it out. This one needed better usability testing lol. It doesn't "default" to that view. There's a grayed out HD icon on the top of the FM screen that was so light in color I never noticed it until I really started thinking "something must be missing". That was it! Not...

    Premium Connectivity Message When Starting Car

    I can't even figure the HD radio out (I only get HD1 for every station but I know these same stations have HD2, HD3...etc counterparts) Wondering if that's functionality they removed. It's brutal to have such an amazing interface yet still have to use my phone for so many things.

    Where are my other stations?

    In looking at online videos of the radio I see others who have multiple stations listed for each frequency. With HD radio certain stations broadcast sister stations under a .1, .2 .3 on the same frequency. My radio only shows one per FM band. Is there a setting to find the others? Did they...

    B-pillar cameras fogging up?

    I have a 2022 M3LR (166xxx VIN delivered 2/14) and can confirm I have the b-pillar fog issue so it's not resolved. Scheduled an appt for home service but then cancelled as from all I have read there doesn't seem to be a solution.

    When will my car get updates? Its been AGES already!

    Good day all. So I've had my M3 for three weeks now. I'm still on the original software that came with the car 2021.43.102. My understanding is that all new deliveries start with an older stable version. Anyone know generally how long this lasts before I'll get something newer? Biggest...

    Really my only complaint about the car. The size of these cup holders is a joke. Way too small. But if that's my only issue I'm doing ok

    256 GB USB - Any Luck?

    Exactly what I did but not recognized by car. Weird because it's a pretty standard Sandisk card. Oh well.

    256 GB USB - Any Luck?

    Yeah problem is the car doesn't recognize it. Oh well not a huge deal as they included one that seems to be plenty large enough I guess. Thx.

    256 GB USB - Any Luck?

    I am trying to use a 256GB USB but it doesn't look like you can format a drive this large using the FAT method which is supposedly required in order to work. That said, I see a ton of recommended USB drives for the sentry/dashcam that are this size. Has anyone had any success using one this...

    I've done the exact same thing because when you're in drive and car is in hold state it's basically like park so you tend to forget.

    Charging stats

    FOUND IT. apparently it's only available if your vehicle software version is 2021.44 or higher. Mine is 2021.43. Not sure why given it's been updated but maybe they roll software out randomly???

    Charging stats

    Nope. Well at least I'm not crazy lol. Nothing. It's bizarre. It's like I am the only one who doesn't have it in my app. How is that even possible??? Bottom of screen app version says 2021.43.102 straight from the google play store.

    Charging stats

    I can't for the life of me find any charging stats in the app. Can anyone tell me where they are? On the main charging screen it just shows the car charging and time remaining. No history. If I go to account there's a charging history section but nothing shows up. It's blank. I keep seeing...

    While waiting for my car from Late Nov until last week, I researched and purchased many accessories. Thought I would post them here with my recommendation. These (for me) were the best combination fitting need and price. Many accessories are identical but sold under a variety of company names...

    Browser issues

    I'm still new to the car (2 weeks). Is it normal for the browser simply not to work for periods of time? It seems like more often than not when I click on the icon I get the bar showing it is thinking but the browser never opens. Is this normal?

    MASTER THREAD: 2021 Model 3 - Charge data, battery discussion etc

    Appreciate it...there are just some trips where 100% will be enough (85% may be too close and I don't want to waste time/money charging if not necessary). But good advice nonetheless.

    MASTER THREAD: 2021 Model 3 - Charge data, battery discussion etc

    Can someone help me with a charging question. I have seen so many recommendations about not charging to 100% so I keep mine at 90%. That said I am planning on a long trip and would like to charge it to 100. Any reason not to do it once in awhile as needed? I know it's not recommended to...

    anyone know how to get full screen browser on latest software

    You're correct. However, for those sites without apps (e.g. Amazon Prime) I can navigate to the Prime web site via the actual browser but when you try to make the browser full-screen it only expands to fill ~40% of the screen with the entire left hand side (and part of the top) remaining with...

    anyone know how to get full screen browser on latest software

    Oh well... I'm sure there will bea fix at some point. If this is the worst of my issues I'm living a pretty fine life.

    anyone know how to get full screen browser on latest software

    So did this change? Was there a time when a "full screen" mode in the browser actually opened the entire screen or has it alwyas been this way (I've only had the car for a week so just figuring things out)

    anyone know how to get full screen browser on latest software

    Same here. Only way I can figure out to get Amazon Prime is via browser but it only gets this big on full screen

    Is there a way to watch Amazon Prime video in the car?

    Anyone figure out how to watch Amazon Prime video? Doesn't seem to work via the browser for me.

    Lug Nuts questions

    Question in lug nuts for my new M3 18 aeros. Took the covers off and added the caps. Decent look but would prefer closed lugs. A few questions. 1. I've known the OEM lugs were open but my question is why. Looking at the back of the aero covers it doesn't look like they attach to the lugs...

    What are some alternatives to buying homelink?

    Thanks all. Just so weird that my Nissan and Honda have it integrated and the car of the future doesn't. Pretty lame but they get the other 900 things right! #firstworldproblems
