    Hot days - car trying to cool something? (Loud noise)

    Service said they will have remediation when we bring the car in. Wonder what fix they are going to put in.

    Hot days - car trying to cool something? (Loud noise)

    Try what at night? Turning off cabin overheat protection?

    Hot days - car trying to cool something? (Loud noise)

    Shut off as in? I don’t use the climate control feature. Are you referring to the cabin overheat protection?

    Hot days - car trying to cool something? (Loud noise)

    Not really. It stops usually when the outside temperature goes down, like maybe 85°. Otherwise even in the garage or on the street parked, it continues the jet engines sound.

    Hot days - car trying to cool something? (Loud noise)

    I noticed this a couple weeks ago when we were seeing 110 degrees in the day. And seeing it today when it went up to 102. What I noticed was an extremely loud fan sound which seemed to be the car trying to cool down the battery or something. It shouldn’t be the cabin overheat protection...

    First service appointment completed recently. They fixed everything except the one dead USB port which needs a part. The sensor is still not fixed, and that will also be addressed when I take the car in for the USB port fix. Adding this info here to balance out some of the horror stories at...

    I had that issue. VINned at the end of March, unmatched the same day, and even though they put me on some priority list for a new match they eventually matched me back to the same VIN. That was one long month.

    Adjust FWD incrementally? (2022 MX)

    Yup, thanks. It does go slowly, and stops as soon as I let go of the open button.

    Updated sig. I added FSD when the conventional wisdom was that expedited deliveries. Whether or not it helped, i don’t know, but I was unable to remove it. So bottom line, I have FSD, navigate on autopilot, summon, smart summon, etc. but haven’t seen auto park show up at all.

    Ah, double-tap next to hazard is a good tip to check ... will try it later today. Unfortunately, I have lost the car since I bought it for my wife and over the weekend she became comfortable with it (dang it!) :-)

    Oh! I don't see PRND at the bottom of wireless charging area. I saw that referenced in the owners manual but I assumed they have moved away from it or something. Should I log a case for it? I hope it's not a difference between LR (mine) and Plaid (yours).

    I don’t have auto summon, so that #1 is not an issue. I like #2 anyway so will keep it. For #3, does having the Tesla widget make it seem like you have opened the app? I have the iPhone widget to get quick access to the 4 commands they show. For now I have turned off Sentry mode so let’s see.

    I don’t even check too much from the app because I have Sentry off at home so there is nothing to check. I am going to monitor until the service appointment and if it continues, may need them to check it out.

    Re: CarPlay I am not quite there yet. Skipping ahead in podcasts (Overcast) using BT is a perceptible time lag from the tap to the actual skip. Waze with the police presence heads up is also an important one I miss esp with the ease to get to 90mph without even realizing it 😀

    Another small bit: I am seeing a battery drain of about 10 miles overnight. Sentry mode is turned off for Home. Anything else that can explain the drain?

    I can totally relate to opening FWDs in tight spaces. I am so afraid of opening it in parking lots and even my garage with our other car parked next to it (my first X, my first Tesla too). As I told my wife, who is the primary driver, just submit yourself to the machine :)

    Day 3 with my first Tesla. I noticed as I pulled out to the driveway and with the sun shining bright, the left FWD said obstacle detected and wouldn't open from the screen. I had to walk out and open it from the outside. I pulled the car into the garage and the alert did not go away (red...

    Thanks! For those wondering, we did go about it and the door moves up (and out) only for the duration that you keep the open button pressed on the pillar. In other words, it will go in as many incremental steps as you'd want it to be. I need to figure out how to store the setting for the...

    In my case, it’s seems it’s calibrated to open low so I may go outside to a parking lot and force it to open all the way before coming back to our garage and trying. If not, then will go with the reco of keeping the button on the pillar pressed. @mswlogo as it is going up, is there a way to stop...

    Makes sense, given the constraints of their supply chain that they would make whatever they can and ship aggressively vs make aggressively and ship as they make.

    Nope - the airbag issue is still not resolved. Apparently nothing being delivered, which is why this forum has gone into topics like snacks at super chargers and tinting on different windows in different parts of North America. Need to shake the VIN machine.

    As a fellow de-VINner, I know how you feel. I have been emailing multiple SA's and the ordersupport email daily. Some days I heard back, some days I don't. The bottom line is I don't know when I will get a new VIN (or get re-matched with the old VIN). And hence, more lurking on this forum/thread.
