You're right. I just thought Sparky was a good name. I'll pretend it runs on electric sparks. :cool:

Sparky

Gotcha. Thanks for clarifying. Congrats on your new MYLR.

How were you able to get the PPF applied for free? I can see the complementary mud flap installation. It set me back about $2,000 for a front-only PPF application on my MYLR.

Congratulations! Yep, those are matrix headlights.

Paint Protection Film (PPF) helps protect the car's paint from scratches and stone chips that could occur while driving. It also makes it easier to clean away bug residue that typically builds up on the front of the car. From what I've read about Ceramic Coating, it protects the car against...

Are you having PPF w/ Ceramic applied to the entire car? I'll ask about Ceramic coating when I take it in for the PPF later this week. Is Ceramic coating mainly to protect against automatic car wash scratches?

What are the benefits of ceramic coating, if you're getting the PPF on front and rear bumper? I watched a video on YouTube that indicated ceramic coating is a DIY project, but I don't think I'm talented enough to try it. Right now, my plan is to have a full front PPF wrap professionally applied.

Thanks for confirming. I'm running update 2022.28.1. Is that the update that now drops the window when using the emergency release?

I didn’t realize the update now drops when the mechanical handle is used. I must have missed it in the release notes. I can try it the next time the auto release doesn’t work.

I’m trying not to use the manual emergency release, because I read that repeated use can damage the upper door seal. If I use it, I’ll have to remember to open the window slightly like it does when the automatic release is used.

A quick update on my Fremont-built MYLR that I picked up on 9/2. The inside driver’s side automatic door release randomly refuses to open the door. I’ve had to open the window while inside the car and pull the outside door handle to open it. I’ve tried a system reboot, but it did not resolve the...

I charge a home at 70% for daily use.

I was in a similar situation last month. In early August, I was given an EDD between 8/19-9/2 and was scheduled to be out of the country from 8/16-8/31. So, I contacted my SA when I got the EDD range and explained the situation. I indicated that I wanted to take delivery of the car if at all...

I bought the pet liner sold on the Tesla website/app. It's pricey at $145, so you'll probably be able to find one cheaper. I just decided to buy one that is designed to fit the Model Y.

I bought the Tesla dog seat cover but haven't installed it yet. I hope it cuts down on the dog hair left over from shedding. I hope the cover is worth the cost. We'll see.

I finally figured out how to attach photos. I was trying to attach from laptop instead of using mobile phone.

My bet is you got the matrix headlights, since our cars came from Fremont and were delivered to the east coast at about the same time. I can't figure out how to attach a photo of my headlight, but if you see what appears to be round projector light in the corner of your headlight then it's matrix.

I picked up my Fremont built MYLR on September 2, and it did not come with the parcel shelf or updated interior paneling. However, it did come with matrix headlights and mobile charger kit.

I was surprisingly pleased with the alignments and overall build quality. The door handles were flush, no significant alignment gaps and no rattles on the 2-hour drive home. The suspension was much better than expected, and the car hugged the road quite well. Overall, the build quality and...

I was originally given a delivery time of 3pm on 9/2. I asked if I could pick it up earlier and was given a 12pm window. When I arrived at 11:15am, I was helped immediately. I picked the car up in Savannah, so the pickup window may be more flexible because of lower demand.

I picked up my Fremont built MYLR today in Savannah, GA. Overall, I was very pleased with the build quality. It dd not come with refreshed door/dash panels or a cargo cover, but it did come with matrix headlights and a mobile charger. Gary, I think your MYLR was on the same transport as mine...

Have you gotten confirmation of matrix headlights, updated interior and cargo cover?

Mine is scheduled for an afternoon pickup on 2 Sep. I’m hoping it arrives a day or two early so they have time to clean it up.

I’m picking up in Savannah, GA. I was told it was coming to the east coast (Alabama?) by train and then to Savanna by truck.

Thanks for the info. 😞 ☹️ Thanks for the info.

The factory location (A or F) is character 11 of the VIN.

I was hoping for an Austin build but, like Gary, will be getting one from Fremont. I’ll bet Gary and my car are on the same transport, given our locations and delivery dates.

How were you able to confirm the matrix headlights and new door panel trim? I have delivery scheduled on September 2 in Savannah, GA from Fremont. I’m hoping for these updates, too. Do you know whether you’re also getting the new cargo cover?

Thank you. I was hoping for an Austin build because I read the paint quality was better. Austin builds come with a cargo cover, but I don’t know about the new Fremont builds. I’m also hearing the new builds from both plants will temporarily come with matrix headlights. I hope that’s the case.

The configuration is in my signature. My MYLR5 will be delivered from Fremont to Savannah, GA. I was hoping/expecting an Austin build.

Yes. I called the Savannah dealership and confirmed the pick-up date. It also showed up in the app shortly after calling the dealership.

I, too, got my VIN today showing a Fremont build. I was hoping/expecting an Austin build but happy to finally get it, nonetheless. The pickup date is confirmed for September 2 in Savannah, GA. Since it's not coming from Austin, I guess it won't have a cargo cover.

I hope you're right, but this is what I found on page 398: (3) The table of sections for subpart D of part 4 IV of subchapter A of chapter 1, as amended by the preceding provisions of this Act, is amended by adding at the end the following new item: ‘‘Sec. 45W. Qualified commercial clean...

The effective date paragraph is on page 398 of the bill. It says the tax credit section applies to vehicles acquired after December 31, 2022.

I ordered a white MYLR on 1.15.22 with pick-up in Savannah, GA. Original EDD was November. Then it was changed Jun 5-Jul 3. A few weeks later the EDD was moved to December and hasn't changed since.

Yes, my EDD was pushed back to 12/22, as well. Ordered on 1/15/22. Same initial schedule as yours. Changed to 6/5-7/3, then to 12/22.

Ordered my white MYLR on 1/15/22 for east coast delivery, and received a November estimated delivery date (EDD). About a week later, it changed to 6/5/22 - 7/3/22 delivery range. Today, it changed again to December. I’ve read when you receive an EDD that doesn’t give a specific date range, it’s...
