Hi. I'm thinking about getting a foam cannon or gun that I would connect to my regular garden hose. I don't have a pressure washer or anything like that. Is there a decent foam cannon/gun that I can get that would attach to my garden hose or would I also be needing a pressure washer? Thanks.

Someone (no me) rubbed the inside of the door area (see pic) when cleaning something off of it. I don't think the white marks are a stain, but rather the excessive rubbing, peeled away the black. Has anyone ever experienced this and might be able to recommend a remedy? Possibly a polish or...

I have about 15,400 miles on all four original tires. Our 2023 MYLR is about one year old (purchased on 12/31/23). The tires have not been rotated yet. I need to purchase one tire because the plug on the passenger rear tire has a slow leak. It was recommended that I purchase two because I was...

We got a small paint chip on the hatch of our Model Y. (We opened it in a garage with a low roof). Caught it in time before major damage, but I'm attaching two pics of a small paint chip that occurred. I contacted an authorized Tesla body shop where we had some work done previously for a quote...

Hi, I've noticed that the tire pressure on all four of my tires are low (37). I also remember that I have to pay for air at most stations in my area. So, I'd like to purchase an air compressor. Should I look for one that I can keep in my model Y at all times or should I focus on one that I can...

Hi, I am in need of some basic car wash advice. I think I have always been doing things a bit wrong and would like to properly wash our Model Y. On previous cars I've just basically been putting some Turtle Wax in a bucket and mixing that with water and using older undershirts (rags) to apply...

I purchased our Model Y LR in January this year. I'm looking to get the front driver and passenger windows tinted as well as possible the windshield. What percentage are the back windows tinted on the Model Y? Does it vary by state? I was reading in some other posts that it is 20 percent. My...

Hi Everyone, In my search for a holder/charger for my iPhone 12, I might have settled on the MagBak for my Model Y (2023). I do have a couple of questions... I was hesitant to purchase a holder that had adhesive due to issues I've had with other holder (on other cars) with the adhesive...

Hi. Does anyone have a suggestion for a corded portable vacuum that I could keep in one of the trunk compartments on a Model Y? Thanks.

I’ve been trying to use Tesla maps on trips, but can’t find myself able to trust it. I do find Tesla maps ok for local driving, but for longer trips I’m finding it tough to rely on it to find the best route especially when it comes to identifying traffic and route based on superchargers. I...

What type of cloth would you recommend to wipe down the interior and exterior of a Tesla? I've tried some general cleaning rags on the interior and noticed that they leave some lint behind. Inside I basically just want to wipe the dust, keep the seats and doors clean and maybe wipe down the...

44 minutes ago Add bookmark #1 Where is the best place to bring my Model Y for body damage repair. In a parking lot, someone's car door slammed into ours as they opened it in high winds. There are dents and some scratches/scrapes to two of the doors. Their insurance should cover it, so I...

I'm thinking about getting the Tesla roof rack and using it with a Thule Pulse 615 on a Model Y. Does anyone know if the Thule Pulse 615 would work well with the Tesla Roof rack. Also, in general, I'm a little hesitant to install a Tesla roof rack, worrying that a carrier might put stress on...

Any recommendations for a front license plate holder? I see a wide range of options (and prices). Looking for one that doesn't involve drilling. The Quick Bandit seems to be nice, but pricey. I live in Maryland. It seems to be a bit unclear if a front license plate is required (or just needs to...

Is it normal for the green light to always be on a steady green when not in use? I don't necessarily want to advertise that I have a Tesla charger on the side of my house. There must be a way to turn the indicator light off?

I just had my Wall Connector installed. It's on a 50amp circuit. I charged our Model Y to 80% to test it and it seemed to do fine. Later in the evening I went through the setup to get it connected to wifi. Things went pretty well, but when I checked for a firmware update I seemed to lose...

In a few days I’ll install wall connector outside on the side of our home. I’m also planning to have some driveway work done (paving and removal of a planter/flower box along the side of the house) in a few weeks. I was a little worried that the charger might interfere with the work, but all...

I always like to have my headlights on regardless of the weather. It seems that on my Tesla Model Y they will always initially be in "Auto" mode. Can I change this setting to "On" and be guaranteed that my headlights will always be on?

We've had our Tesla Model Y long range for about two weeks. We love it but are a bit disappointed with range, more specifically, miles traveled vs. miles left. For example, Thursday night we charged to 222mi. We traveled 91 miles, however we lost 140 miles (at 82miles now). I understand that...

Just curious how everyone uses the two cargo spaces in the Model Y? Seems that the shallower one (closer to the rear seats) is a little difficult to gain access to, especially if you have a cargo liner installed. What does everyone like to put in this space? If it's tough to get to, I was...

We've just had our model Y for about a week and a half. I'd like to get into some good battery charging habits. Unfortunately, because I have had our Tesla Wall Connector installed yet, I had to supercharge twice for just about 50 miles or so each time. My mobile connector just arrived last...

I've never ordered from this place before so just wanted to get some feedback about the items and store. What do you all think? https://www.tesmanian.com/products/2020-2022-tesla-model-y-second-row-seats-back-cover-mats-5-or-7-seater-3-pieces...

My Tesla will be kept outdoors and I live in Maryland so we can get snow and ice in the winter and the summers are hot. I've never used a car cover for my other cars, but am considering it for my Model Y. I wouldn't use it every evening, but whenever there might be a forecast of heavy snow...

I'm looking for some decent mats to cover the cargo area and rear of seats in a 2023 Model Y. Are there any options out there that have three pieces for the seat rear and two pieces for the cargo top cover? I haven't spent much time playing around with it, but at first glance, it seems that...

What do you think of this seat cover for the back seat of the model Y? I just need something that can easily be put on and taken off. I would just use it when we have our dog in the back seat so she doesn't scratch the seats...

I'm looking to get rear seat covers for our 2023 Model Y. This cover would primarily be used for when we bring our dog along for a ride. The Tesla hammock style one wouldn't work, because we'd like to have people sitting back there as well together with our dog. I do also realize that the rear...

After much deliberation, I purchased the model Y LR today and it's home :) Last night I ordered these Maxpider floor mats (after reading through some reviews)... https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0936RH9SH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 I'm a bit worried about getting the...

If I go ahead with the model y, I will purchase in December 31st. A few questions I have now are: A VIN number has been assigned and the sales rep told me that it’s a 2023 model. However, I thought that Tesla doesn’t necessarily have year models because they are continually updating their...

I’ve been considering a Tesla model Y for a couple of years now. One thing holding me back is that I worry about parking it or just driving it around. I think it’s getting better because there are more Teslas around now than even a year ago. But I still worry. I noticed on an overnight test...

I was notified by Tesla that my Model Y order (from February) was arriving. I opted to put the order on hold so I can (hopefully) get the tax credit starting on January 1, 2023. I also declined the $3750 rebate offer. I would like to make sure that I will get the tax credit and was wondering...

Hello, I've been reading reports that say the Model Y (LR) both does and does not qualify for the newly adopted tax incentives for EVs. I placed my order in March of this year. Can anyone confirm if the Model Y LR qualifies for the $7,500 tax incentive? If it does, would the delivery have to...

Do you think it is a good time to purchase a Wall Connector? The EDD on our car is still something like 6-9 months away. I don't want to risk having the price increase and I would also like to take advantage of local incentives which means that I should get a home charger installed before...

Over the past couple of weeks, I've seen my reservation (which was done back in March) go from an Oct., 2022-December, 2022 window to a January, 2023-April, 2023, back to a more specific....November 28, 2022 to January 23, 2023 windows. Just yesterday that changed to an April, 2023-July, 2023...

I'm planning now for the delivery of a Model Y LR (still months away)... What type of home charger would you recommend getting. I can't predict the future, but there is always the possibility of a non-Tesla EV. Should I get something like a Chargepoint charger or stick with a Tesla one? Thanks...

Hi Everyone, I placed an order for a Model Y Long Range back in March. The delivery estimate changed a lot and now says Novemember-January (2023). A week ago or so it said (April-June, 2023). I've been reading about the "new" model Y, the "AWD" that's built in Texas. However, if I understand...

Hi Everyone, Two months ago, I ordered a Model Y and have an ETA of Jan, 2022. I just have some general questions about the process. It seems that every so often features are being updated on Teslas. If I understand correctly, with Tesla, we do not necessarily order a 2021 Model Y, 2022 Model...

I'm thinking about ordering a Model Y long range in either metallic silver or black. Silver ETA is 11/22 and black is 7/22. Time isn't too much of an issue, but just was wondering if these dates could go much longer or on the other end, could it be shorter? Also, I'm a little hesitant to order...

I'm considering purchasing a model Y, but had some initial questions about how it does in the snow. Does the long range model come with front wheel drive or rear wheel drive? I've been reading some information that says it used to be front wheel drive, but now it is rear wheel drive. I'm a...
