I currently have the latest software loaded on the car and it seems like scheduled departure with off peak charging is not working. To my knowledge, the charging stats function on the app is just for informational purposes only and does not dictate when the car starts to charge. I've set off...

I should add that I looked at the mirror closely and I can see the outline of the area where the mirror dims on the driver side. The passenger side mirror does not have this outline.

Recently while driving at night, I've noticed that my passenger side rear view mirror does not dim like the driver side does. I remember that this used to work before. I did have some work done around the mirror area for a noise but not sure if this was the cause of the issue. Does the Model Y...

I've searched the forum and couldn't find a similar issue to mine and was wondering if anybody else is experiencing the same. Whenever I tune in to a HD radio station (104.3 FM in my location for example), the HD radio immediately turns from white to gray to black. This is normal. The issue...

I've had my Model Y since March and just now, I've noticed that the plastic rocker panel are not flush with the bottom of the doors. I was wondering if this normal or not. I've had mobile service come out and re-seated the panel but it still sticks out. Would the service center be able to...

I noticed yesterday that the plastic black rocker panel below the side doors are not flush with the door panels. Is this by design or we’re the clips not pushed in all the way. Should there be a smooth transition from the door down to the panel? In the picture attached, you can see a slight lip...

Ah thanks for the straightforward reply. I didn’t think to look there

I am curious regarding the recent news that new Teslas are no longer going to be shipped with Mobile Connectors. If I have a leased Tesla, would I have to return the car with the mobile connector or is it ok for me to keep it. I understand that I probably should keep the mobile connector with...

I almost always back into my parking spot with my Model Y. I've noticed in the recent software update that was performed (2022.12.1). If I am pulling out of my spot and no cars parked besides me on my left and right, my car thinks I am departing my lane and will sound the warning alarm. I think...

Cool thanks for the info. That is good to know.

So it is normal for the displayed range to be less then advertise when brand new. That is good to hear. I thought that the range displayed next to the battery is not really affected by anything other then the health of the battery?

I've read a few threads on this topic and it seems like the range displayed next to the battery icon in the car is based on the rated range not based on driving habits. For accurate range calculations based on my driving habits, I would need to look at the energy app in the car. During charging...

yeah, also if I go to the charging screen in the car, it does show the "free" supercharging station and how much it would've cost as well.

Yeah but keep in mind, I went to a supercharger that was a few miles away from the service center on my way home. I was not charging at a service center.

Something odd happened to me a couple of days ago when I took my car to supercharge after a service visit. I decided to take my car to charge up at a nearby supercharger after my service appointment. This was inside a paid parking structure. I remember seeing the rates for charging at 24 cents...

yeah I think I confirmed it. As sideman7 said, when the heat is on, then it will blow on both passenger and driver side vents regardless of whether there is a passenger or not. It's also the case that usually when the heat is on, the foot vents are on as well since heat rises. Any idea why only...

I will have to try that. I usually observe this in the mornings when the heat is usually on. I can try to lower the temperature in the cabin to see if that is the case.

Hello all. Recently took delivery of my Model Y and I am learning a lot about it. I know that the front passenger vent is supposed to turn off when there is no passenger sitting in the seat but that does not seem to always happen. Sometimes I will look at the AC controls and see that the...

This is a new construction and it is a condo/multi-occupancy unit (one building has 4 units). So that would explain why we are on 3 phase power. But it sounds like I shouldn't run into any issues with charging. I do see other neighbors charging their Teslas too and they pre-wired a EV box in the...

Hi all, I just got around to install my 14-50 outlet in my garage. When I finished installing the outlet, I used my multimeter to test the voltages. I tested from hot1 to ground and hot2 to ground both measured at exactly 120v. However, when I measured across hot1 and hot2, I get 208v. I thought...

I thought about it but wasn't sure because we are on a 125A service and the big appliances that uses electricity are the AC and oven. If I were to get a wall connector, I would have to spend money to get it installed as well. Drywall would need to be opened up as well. So overall installing the...

Which outlets are you referring to. Seems like the Hubbell and Bryant are out of the question since they only accept copper

Besides the Cooper outlet, are there any other commercial rated receptacle that will work with aluminum? I think with aluminum, I will need anti-oxidizing paste as well?

I hope to be taking delivery of a Tesla Model Y performance in the coming weeks. During the wait, I have done a lot of research regarding the charging infrastructure and read through the NEMA 14-50 master thread in the Model 3 forums. I have done some electrical work myself and I am starting...
