From an engineering standpoint the weight of spacers could be a factor but it would surely be an insignificant variant. However, the above mentioned wife could effect range, heat or no heat, by a more significant amount by the addition of static mass measurable in individual examples.

Masturbation might work..

Work for Boeing Seattle by chance?

I wouldn't like that at all. Reboot your car first. If it continues take the car in to Tesla.

Agreed. Shop all of their jacks and sign up for their coupons to get pretty awesome deals. I've had this low profile lightweight jack for several years - bought to jack a 356 and works great for Teslas now. The cars are heavy but one corner is light enough for a 1.5 or 2 ton model...

You could power down if you want more speed. it's a button in the 'service' menu. (or maybe I've got it's placement wrong even though I've used it. I'm old - I have the earned privilege of forgetfulness.)

Hi Moe, I hate being impolite but I really don't think I'm ready to give an evaluation of the car yet as for assorted reasons I haven't been able to spend a good amount of time driving it. I do think it corners as well as the older - but it's different. The sound system is better but it's so far...

No product? I took delivery March 26, 2024 in Portland, OR. They aren't yet available on the east side? Can say for sure - the interior lighting, both foot well and the color ring (around the bathtub) CAN be turned off at owner's discretion. It's hard for me to tell for sure as I don't have...

Ya, but this was a trade-in of my previous car for which I had purchased FSD. Tesla's offer was to transfer FSD from old to new at no cost if new was delivered by March 31. I don't know it factually but it seemed that Tesla waited for my trade-in FSD car was inventoried after my release of...

Yep, it's blue to me and I liked it quite a bit.

So then is it demonstrated by the complainants in this thread that many if not most drivers in the world drive in circles for most of their time behind the wheel?

Really? I just traded my 2022 M3 in midnight silver and never saw a shade which I'd call "plum". Instead it had a distinct blue shade which appeared in various light - sometimes when overcast, sometimes when the car was in a shaded place on a sunny day. Now I never think of plums as blue. I see...

I should have come back to say that my March 22 - April 3 order was delivered to me March 26 and that FSD was transferred on March 30.

I have a complaint! (So warm and fuzzy feeling in this whiny thread). The headlight button will not put high beam on and leave it on. t will flash high beam but so far I've not found a way to keep high beam on. I live in high hills/low mountain(?) and drive windy two lane or one lane roads...

I took delivery of my shiny new "Highland" yesterday and somehow made it home (22 miles) using the t/s buttons and not putting my arm out, not even once. It was after all how I passed my first license driving test in 1964. At the time even though many new cars were delivered with stalks...

Sometimes it's not about cost. For 20 years I drove 120 miles a day so that I could live in a mountain community and not in the city. I'd sure have liked doing it in a Tesla but back then Elon was not available.

I'm confused over why you ordered your new car with FSD if you expect the free transfer of FSD from your old to your new? I hope they're easy about returning your money. I will go get my Highland on Tuesday (ordered Feb 6) and expect the transfer of FSD per Tesla's offer. FWIW, my expected...

Yes, I have similar conditions during winter, more severe some years than others and I'm sure never so severe as yours. I use "Defrost car" in 'climate' and "precondition" in 'schedule' before leaving when snow and ice have come. I'm not sure if those affect brake condition specifically but have...

Since you speak of the removal of "all these features" may I presume that your car is a so-called "Highland" M3? If so you might want to review your operator manual section "Brake Disk Wiping" which describes the automatic action when cold and wet weather is detected to remove water etc. from...

A good job will likely outlast your ownership of the car so don't try to save money. Do your research, ask for 3M (IMO) and get the best job no matter how much they want to do it. It's SUCH a PITA to have to complain, go back possibly numerous times because you tried to get the lowest price...

I'm an old dog ready again to disprove the adage: "You can't teach an old dog new tricks". My Highlander is due by March 28th. Also, I'm thinking that software improvements/additions to the steering wheel button controls are not only possible but likely. Improvements or additional functions...

Have you tried using the equalizer to adjust level to your taste? You could use that to lower the overall volume while keeping the profile and then use the steering wheel volume adjustment to vary the sound level if your choices of music are not all at one level. No? Where there's a will...

Yeah, I like the blue that comes in sunlight and other lighting conditions with the midnight paint. Unfortunately the stealth has a reddish/purple - I don't know how to describe it that's weird IMO. So the 2024 that I'll take delivery of by March 28 is Black. (Trading in 2022 for 2024 because...

That's true, but I doubt Tesla is making their speakers. I don't know who they get them from but in large measure they're not bad. The sound system could be improved but it's likely to take $3- 5000. to notice the improvement unless all you want is to rattle windows as you drive down streets...

It's darker than the previous and I saw somewhere that it changes colors in varying light. Sounds confused and probably expensive to repair so I ordered black for my soon to arrive Highland. Black is a PITA to keep sharp looking but nothing is as classy as black cars except black motorcycles (HD).

Yes, it is good news. My highland order fluctuated it's delivery into April but over the span since my Feb 6 order it has gradually narrowed and stands today at March 16 - Mar 31, still without a VIN. So it ruffled my feathers a little at first patience has paid off and this from John Kraus...

Sheesh, am I an idiot. My apologies to all as I'd missed the first page of this thread and thus did not see the previous posts suggesting the possibility of chill mode. I was hurrying to beat the arrival of my dinner and should have chilled...

"My disappointment stems from the acceleration curve. The 0-30mph(yes 30, was not able to reach 60 due to speed limits) felt considerably slower than my 2018 which doesn't add up. Despite having all wheel drive, new, full charge, outdoor temps, etc. I tried coming up for reasons for this...

At higher speeds a balancing issue may appear. A technician with limited experience might not realize a need to balance for speed. In other words a job perfectly adequate at speed limits may not be so great at higher speeds. Just an idea for you... Also, do not assume that a half shaft is not...

I think the trick is to NOT signal your turns. If (and around here it's a big if) you're ever pulled over for not signaling just show the car to the cop and ask him to show you how to signal. They're all trained in driving safety after all and should be happy to help....until they can't.

I agree although I've not driven an S Plaid. I have floated around in a 2015 Model S and didn't ever like it very much. I own a 22 M3LR and am currently in the midst of a trade for a Highland (Their new offer of allowing the FSD transfer to new car if delivered by 3-31 made me jump). Maki, I...

OUCH! It's uncanny how a pup goes for a thing of either monetary or sentimental value. It's part of their bonding process - chew your glasses, your jewelry, your boots, your electronics which all have your scent. So don't be mad - your dog's most outrageous acts are acts of love...🐶 "arf!"

All at once? Have you been driving through water? Ah, you're still in Washougal? If so - yes, you've been driving through water. One damp major connector could cause several warnings/stoppages. With a car as old as yours (NOT saying that your car is old, only that it's had more chances for some...

Increased top speed from 135mph to 155mph 21’’ Überturbine Wheels Performance Brakes Lowered suspension Aluminum alloy pedals Carbon fiber spoiler Since it's mostly cosmetic look at your pedals, your tires, your hatch, and whether your brake calipers are red. If they are get a helmet, a T-shirt...

Really? I must have missed the instruction describing how the car could be operated without software assistance. I only asked whether you'd tried it without driving aids engaged. For me after over 50 years of driving subject to manipulation by oil companies I really do like the fact that I...

kimwin, Did you read the owner manual(s) for your Tesla and spend time driving it WITHOUT any of the driving aids engaged?

Casey, The heck with the money do whatever you need to do to buy a new Model 3 LR, the so-called "Highland". You get a much nicer feel, a full warranty, and that great feel whenever you buy a new vs. used car. Besides.. my father always told me "Buy a used car and you're buying another man's...

Enjoy your new car and don't let such stuff as creds, referrals, or any of that pishywawa spoil it for you! Congrats!!

First, relax. I know exactly how you feel - excited about the car, trying to anticipate every need and prepare in advance for any eventuality. I'd refrain from purchasing more than the Tesla mobile charger which includes the J1772 adapter (or did when I got my car). I think it's very likely...

I think any auto repair or customization shop would be out of their mind in this day and age to treat any customer as you've been treated. Don't they know how word of mouth makes or breaks a business and word of mouth today is a worldwide internet thing. We're it me I'd fix you up to your...

In a model 3 it isn't that the mirror is too small it's that the view through the rear window is very narrow/small, made so by the interior of the car. Also, the car's camera app gives us use of the wide angle backup camera. The wide angle will not give an accurate view behind the car on a...

I don' think anyone should fret - we get our truck when we get our truck. Remember, a fun-loving CEO might decide to reverse the order of delivery; last order. first delivery. :mad: I doubt there's a contractual requirement for Tesla to deliver in the order reserve was made, in fact doesn't it...

Lapsmith, Watch again. The guy said the Plus version raises and moves screen to the right.

"Hansshow you depress then the the handle swings out, so each person must press". That differs from OEM stock operation how?

The option to buy the acceleration boost tempts me from time to time - cheap thrills, eh? I know this : if ever I do opt for the boost range will be the furthest most from my mind as a consideration. I'm sure that just as it was in my 1957 Chevy Impala, owned in 1966, when I pushed the gas...

If they're the same as ones I tried, and they appear to be the same, I thought they were crummy; not because of any glow they might have emitted but because they stick out from the handle they are to stick onto making for a disruption of the smooth line of the car. I looked at them and decided...

I'm interested in how a MY performance handles if compared to a M3 performance or even a M3lr. I have a 2022 M3lr and after a lifetime of sports cars or sports sedans I think it's the best handling car I've ever had. The wait was long for any Model Y when I bought my current car and I don't...

Nobody found the Motor trend "reviews" kinda' trite - lacking substance? It sounds like 'Highland' will be quieter and handle better and I'm all for that. In fact I'd like most to get info on US availability as I'm ready to exchange my grey 2022 M3LR for a Highland performance in black right...

I'd guess the aftermarket stipulation is intended to keep cars within the price requirements for eligibility to use the assorted tax benefits/credits.

Excellent warning and I feel for you having to repeat the job. It's no fun going through the filter change. (I'm 75 with arthritis in both hand rated "moderate to severe" and will NOT change another set of cabin filters) Agree with Don above about verifying the "HEPA" claim.
