    Has Basic Autopilot improved (and phantom braking decreased) since radar was removed? (About to buy!)

    22 M3P and I would say AP has improved over the last year. I took a 800 mile trip across South Dakota in July last year and had a ton of phantom braking events. Mainly due to heat mirages and some overpass shadows but some completely unexplained. This was during bright sunny days with an...

    Supercharger - Tofte MN

    Someone on the MN Tesla FB group mentioned that the site is now fenced in. I think the plan is Q3 2023.

    Homelink is acting weird

    Mine has been the same (not working when leaving) for about the last 90 days. I recently activated the MyQ trial as I already have the receiver installed - works but requires a subscription. I will probably go back to Homlink when it expires. Super annoying after spending the $$ last year.

    Supercharger - Tofte MN

    I am excited for this to be completed this summer. The north shore is really lacking fast charging. I assume this will include the Magic Dock for non-Teslas. I wonder how busy the site will be since it's the only option for fast charging over 50kW for non-Tesla north of Duluth.

    Supercharger - Two Harbors, MN

    While Grand Marais would be my top pick I agree Tofte is better for Lutsen and people staying in that area. I can hit it on the way back from my place North of GM but for someone in Tofte GM is out of the way. The 50kWh in GM works and plenty to do while you wait.

    Supercharger - Two Harbors, MN

    Got my CCS adaptor yesterday….I guess 50kwh in GM will work for now.

    Supercharger - Two Harbors, MN

    I will probably grab the Tesla to CCS adaptor when available in the US and plan to hit the 50kWh charger in GM. I drive a M3P and with a deep charge at Two Harbors I won't need to spend much time on a level 2 or the 50kWh.

    Supercharger - Two Harbors, MN

    Yes, I am aware there is a 50kWh CCS in GM...... Not really fast by todays standards.

    Supercharger - Two Harbors, MN

    Two Harbors will be great but we do need a Grand Marais SC. I have an off-grid cabin 15 miles north of GM and even with Two Harbors a round trip without spending time on a level 2 in GM is not possible. Maybe EA will put something in GM and a CCS adaptor will solve the problem....

    Performance cold weather range

    I took delivery of my 22 M3P at the end of Feb this year in Minnesota. Only had a week of cold commutes before it warmed up but on 50 mile round trip I was seeing 20%-25% use. In the summer I am seeing 15%-18% use. I didn't get any below zero days but I don't think those will be worse then...

    New owner M3

    You aren't missing anything. You don't need the adaptor in the middle for home charging. Just plug it in using the photo above as your guide. Your car might not like an extension cable being used but it will tell you on the screen.

    Can you drive a Tesla without network coverage for an extended period?

    Drove around in the Black Hills on vacation a couple weeks ago and lost connection for most of the day. No Spotify and some glitchy GPS readings but everything else worked. Teslafi is missing large portions of our trip and the statistics are all wrong but that's not a big deal.

    Charge Point Home Flex feedback

    I am going to film my own version of this because it's even easier. Push the button - car stops charging and releases - release button - pull out as one unit. It's a one handed operation if you do it correctly.

    What is the thin line above the speed on the Model 3 display

    It would be nice if we could customize our display a bit more. Pick what we want to see and move items around/make larger etc. I get they are going for ease of use etc but an "advanced mode" with customization would be helpful.

    Dealer markups drove me to buy a Tesla

    We purchased an Infinity at a used car dealership last year. After we signed all the paperwork (and declined all the BS with the finance guy) they took the truck in the back to "detail" it. After 30 minutes they pulled the truck around to the front and had added the dealership name across the...

    ChargePoint Home Flex for Model 3 question

    I have ChargePoing home flex that is hard wired and it works great. I have the schedule set to midnight to 6 am for off peak rates (in the CP app). Nothing set in the M3 - when the power turns on at midnight it charges to the set amount.

    What did you sell/trade for your 3?

    2012 Volvo T6 R Design. Comfortable car but I won't miss the premium fuel and it had a lot of electrical issues (locks/windows/headlights). Resale value was also terrible but I knew that going in. Picked up 2022 M3P last week and love it. My overnight charge rate is .028 per kWh.....

    How to charge at home whenever plugged in, except during peak hours?

    This also works with the Charge Point Home charger. I set it to turn on at midnight and the car wakes up and charges.

    How to set start charging and end time

    I think you are correct. I wasn't able to get it to work with just the Tesla app. Ended up using my Charge Point Home & the Tesla app. I set the Charge Point to turn on at midnight - Tesla charges to full. Set pre-condition in Tesla app for 7am. The ultra cheap rates are 12-6 (car charges...

    How to set start charging and end time

    I have been able to set my car to start charging at 12am AND scheduled departure for 7am. It does work but there have been nights it doesn't - is this a known bug (I have only had my car a week so still experimenting).

    How to set start charging and end time

    In the app go into schedule and set up the charger to start at 12am (you cannot also set an end time).

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Received my MSM M3P yesterday afternoon. Tesla employee dropped it off just as his Uber was pulling up. I insisted on looking it over for a couple minutes and making sure no windows were broken etc. Looked really good. I signed and he was off. Closer inspection didn't really turn up much -...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Tesla called me today to confirm my delivery time (Monday 12-2) and confirmed a Tesla employee will be driving to my house and taking an Uber back. They wanted to know how many questions I would have for the guy so they could time the Uber correctly. I said I don't need help with the car but I...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I originally selected to pick the car up at the service center but they switched it to home delivery. Question for those that had home delivery - what type of truck was it delivered on? I live in a single family development on a dead end - if they bring a car carrier down here they will not be...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    My delivery is Monday and all I have coming are mats and two adaptors. Anyone want to share their wish list? :)

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Yes there are bad potholes..... My plan might be to move to 19in (or 18in) for summer and winter tires. I will have my current car (Volvo AWD) for a bit to drive in the snow if needed for the end of this winter.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Being in MN in winter I would prefer all seasons.... but in 6 weeks I will want summer tires (I run snow tires in the winter) - so I guess I will be happy with either.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Heard a rumor some of the MP3 are now being delivered with all season tires? Anyone taken delivery (I know most in this thread haven't) get different tires?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Just got my delivery date last night. 2/28 set up for home delivery. I was originally assigned the the local pick up centre. I assume there is no charge for home delivery since they changed it. Pretty impressed less then a month from order to delivery.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    In MN we only need current insurance and we get a 30 day grace period. I uploaded my current insurance card on my truck.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I uploaded my insurance and it was accepted. I am doing my financing thru Tesla and that was also accepted. The final payment area where I will pay my downpayment/taxes has a greyed out "start" button. My downpayment will be different depending on the delivery day so that's going to be an...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I ordered my M3P (silver/black interior) on 2/9 and it said 3/4-3/30 I am in MN. On 2/14 I received my VIN and the delivery updated to 2/26-3/4. My app shows we'll notify you when it's time to continue with pre-delivery tasks and "check back later". Does anyone know how close to delivery they...
