    Automate your Tesla with NFC Technology

    So let's assume we're not all cool and some may carry a mere Android device. The Tesla widget allows you to do all this with just a touch, so am I missing some some advantage to nfc that I can't already do?

    It opened all its windows!

    And there you go! Sensor is on the inside. Thank you!

    It opened all its windows!

    I agree, I don't know, short of some sensor. Boats use them in lieu of float switches now, just little domino-like bricks that sense water and turn on the bilge pump or water alarm. Needless to say, the car was ruined regardless, but to find all the windows open and the interior filled with...

    It opened all its windows!

    Back when Hurricane Ian delivered 5.5' of water to the ground floor of our home, it naturally drowned all the vehicles, including our 2020 M3. What I found interesting when we were able to get outside and observe the devastation, was that all four windows were down on the Tesla. To this day I've...

    2022 M3: Unable to turn wifi on

    Well, as it turns out, I never went to wifi that way. I used the software heading and scrolled down to the update, and there was a link there to turn on wifi, which gave me the message above. I just went out and accessed it as you suggested, and it found and connected to my router and began the...

    2022 M3: Unable to turn wifi on

    After searching this site and others, it seems this is an issue much discussed but not solved that I can see. I get the "wifi will turn on after you start driving" message, but it never seems to do it. Current software is 2022.16.2, and it wants to go to 36.6, but I can't get it to even consider...

    WiFi Not Connecting

    Pretty hard to get an update to solve a wifi problem is wifi won't connect. Our 2022 has same issue as all above.

    New wrinkle in HVAC

    Yes indeed, not a native, but 20+ years. Have you had good experiences with the FM SC? We've only had ours for less than a year, and this was the first issue.

    New wrinkle in HVAC

    You and me both, it's another long hot s fl summer. Sorry you had such a poor experience, I've been in the service business for 40 years, and still can't understand why service writers think they know more about my (or your) car than I do. Some seem to take the attitude that you're an imposition...

    New wrinkle in HVAC

    After a week of noticing the air conditioner, here in sunny SW Florida, seemed to be intermittently blowing warmer than it ought to have, we got a notice on the screen saying HVAC system needed dealer service, and stopped working all together., this on last Friday evening. Research here talked...

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    I have to say, now that we have a couple of months under our belts, that the unlock problem seems to have eased. Occasionally I need to swing my hip towards the car if it doesn't respond, but for the most part it opens right up. My Galaxy is in my pocket, her Pixel in her purse, and really you...

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    @WhattsappMTL Thank you. I continue to learn about this car every day.

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    I agree, never had a problem with the rear hatch. Btw, was a self-closing rear hatch an option? My well equipped 2020 doesn't have it, but as I was watching a key fob video I noted that some cars can close the hatch remotely.

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    @WhatsappMTL I have also found that swiveling my butt towards the door opens it right up, and wife has learned to swing her purse toward the car. I think we're finally getting past this issue. Part of the learning curve I guess. Thank you for your response.

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    @CarlThompson Hey Carl, I was just watching someone's UTube vid about the fob, dated Jan 2019, and it indicates that passive entry/lock doesn't work with it. You have to push the button to unlock/lock. Is that your experience?

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    Thank you all, this is very helpful. @rpratt I would say ours is failing maybe 1 in 4, but agree very annoying, especially when it worked to get you out of the driveway, then fails at the grocery store 30 mins later! I think @CarlThompson prolly has the best solution, although I'm not sure I...

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    The notification is always there and the app always tells me I'm connected to the car. I'll have to watch more closely at each incidence to look for something. I see people talking about making sure the app always run in the background, set background permission, etc, but they all seem to have...

    @GreenHokie Thank you for that tip, I will remember it! Presumably you're not stuck on 95 this morning!

    @Jo060 how encouraging! I spent a couple hours there the other morning, it was pretty chaotic. It's a little scary.

    Bluetooth phone key entry

    We are new to our 3, and seek some understanding. Both our phones are set up as key cards. There are times when the phone key unlocks and drives fine, say to a local store. Then coming out of the store, the phone will not unlock the car, requiring the key card or unlocking from the app. Then the...

    And @JJ I couldn't imagine them doing suspension work in my driveway, so I have no doubt I'll end up with a day at the SC

    Contacting Service [how to ask tesla service a question?]

    Yes roblab I did the same thing, and I don't see any indication of wear in the harness, presuming I'm looking in the right place. I'm not nearly as far from my SC as you are, so I guess I'll consider myself lucky.

    Ok thanks I'll wait it out and see what comes of it. So much for my complimentary check over...

    Contacting Service [how to ask tesla service a question?]

    I'm not sure where to post this, nothing seems really appropriate. I had my 3 in last week for alignment service and a "complimentary" check over, since it had just been purchased pre-owned. Service day was a bit chaotic and I'm not at all sure I got anything checked over except the alignment...
