There are two types of issues. One of what you describe is related to pressure, second one is related to a "buffeting" and "low frequency booming". The tubing will not help if you have a pressure type of issue. Read this thread, it's already discussed a lot about all those things.

Sounds like bad luck... Wall Connector is pretty reliable overall. I think with a replacement unit everythingg will go back to normal

I had a 500-mile road trip a couple of days ago, and along the way were spotty scattered rainstorms. And since driving on Autopilot, the Auto Wipers is a default option in this case. Well.. I was surprised at how well and accurately it worked. Definitely better than a year ago when I just bought...

Depends on outside temperature. The 46F and below is considered the optimal operating temperature for winter tires. So if it's your case - you are completely fine switching to winter tires.

@ionsphere I got used to this approach instead of voice commands: when you make a stalk button push for a single wipe, then using a left scroll wheel during that moment, pushing it left or right you can select the wipers mode. This helps me to keep the hands on steering wheel and not trying to...

No, I didn't search for the solution. Not a big deal for me as I mostly do "one-pedal driving" and rarely use friction brakes. When I press the brakes, other than random pedal vibration, the brakes work just fine with predictable stopping power. So I just keep driving and enjoying the car )

Texas requires that a front license plate be installed. But you can see A LOT of cars driving around with only rear license plate. I drove a previous car without a front license plate and now drive Tesla the same way. Zero issues. I heard stories when cop pulled over and ticketed because of...

On top of that, when on road trips, I carry with me 50ft+25ft 110/12A extension cords and 50ft 220/30A extension cord 🙃

I have this my 2022 Model Y LR. And I don't have "simulate brake regen when unavailable" activated. I thought it's kind of normal since Tesla doesn't have the vacuum power assist like in ICE cars, probably here is the eclectic brake power assist. I use "one pedal driving" most of the time and...

The most minimalistic look is this one: Tesla Model Y All Weather Floor Mats – EVANNEX Aftermarket Tesla Accessories I like fabric mat, but for the winter Colorado trip needed something different to be easier to clean. It worked perfectly and design is very slim. Yeah, price also great.

There are differences as well, you can try to google. Tesla does not have a thing like a "model year". They can make changes to the car in the middle of the year. For example, I bought mine in August 2022, and just one month after, Tesla redesigned the door covers, similar to Model 3 with a...

Sell your car on Facebook and buy new from Tesla. Tesla continuously evolves. 2020 Model Y and 2023 Model Y are very different model Y's actually, even if they look the same outside and inside. If you go with 2020 vs 2023 you ll have: - slower infotainment system processor Intel Atom versus...

Your Wh/mile will significantly depend on your cruising speed. So, is the Tesla measurement accurate? Yes Will you have the same consumption on a road trip? Not necessarily. It will depend on speed, wind, and elevation.

Maybe you got used to cheap sound systems and a premium sound system sounds odd at first. In cheap sound systems, you don't have a feeling of the sound direction. It's just everywhere in the cabin of the car. Or it can be everywhere with a super low loud subwoofer if it's an additional custom...

It does not mean that after a 3-year lease vehicle goes to the scrap yard. It's just sold to a new owner, with a cheaper price and continues its function but for the next owner. And it goes on and on until the "death cross" when maintaining/fixing the vehicle is more expensive than buying a...

Yeah, If you have any regular 120V outlet in your condo - use it! You ll get 40-50 miles of range with overnight charging. My friend lives in the house, have a garage, simple 220V installation setup possible. But he decided not doing so because 120V charging is enough for him for daily short...

Did you notice any difference?

What is "seal with new urethane"? It is that rubber that goes around that hatch door and it's different from what was before?

Then would throw that roll into a trash can.. It's not as easy as you think when you deal with curved surfaces.

Yeah you right... didn't google well. Camry has a chain. Well, it a big saving on maintenance.

Kind of... It's important to replace a fluid because it absorbs moisture very well and over time, water in the fluid can unexpectedly create steam pockets when breaks are overheated so you lose the breaks because of that. With Tesla, it's not that critical, because friction brakes are more of...

For Camry you forgot to calculate these maintenance things: 1. Brake pad and rotors. With 300K you will replace those at least 4 times. Total: $1000 2. Spark plugs - every 100K miles. Total: $300-500 3. Timing and driving belts. This service is also pretty expensive, every 100K miles. Total...

I think it's not fair to compare $35K Prius with $55K Model Y. Cheaper ICE cars always have cheaper maintenance costs. Need to take similar cars by class and by price. When I had Volvo, a simple oil change at the official dealer was around $130-150. Break pad replacement with a rotor resurface...

+1 for looking at CCS adapter. If your road trip routes are predictable, check the Electrify America stations along those routes. If the station charge per minute, then charging cost often up to 3 times cheaper than supercharger (if to convert back to $/kwh), because tesla charging pretty quick...

Okay, you may be right about suspension, and someone like for the car to be stiff. But tires.. well, spend $4K more on car and then spend another $1-2K to change the rims and tires... I don't know.. is the 1 sec off 0-60 really worth it.

No what 😄

1. Lower suspension, some don't like it 2. Worse ride comfort 3. Easier to damage the 21 rims in the pot hole because of the low tire profile 4. Need to change tires more often and they are more expensive than 19s or 20s 5. Since rear tires are wider than fronts, you can't make rotation so you...

The ride quality on 19s is better than on 20s. That's a main reason why I didn't even think to upgrade to 20s. MYP before "comfort suspension" was even worse because of 21s, but people say not anymore.

I am not talking about spherical scroll. This is a regular scroll that also can be pushed left and right. I programmed those for copy/paste operations. Super convenient when working with text files or spreadsheets. Here: Amazon.com

I don't. Tesla Wall Connector seems to have a power surge protection. I think you ll not find online even a single case when tesla was damaged by power surge caused by lightning. There were cases when lightning strike near the car and that damaged it. But no cases related to power surge of...

No issues at all. Sounds like you just need to perform a press a little bit differently. Instead of positioning your thumb on the center of the wheel, make the initial position of the thumb to the side of the wheel before pressing. For example, if you want to push it left, put your thumb to the...

Don't worry about that at all, you ll not miss that. I have 48A setup, but charge at 32A to not create unnecessary heat stress to the wiring of my house. It's plenty!! You did absolutely right thing changing your setup to 50A breaker!

car battery and cell phone battery - has the same type of the battery. Li-Ion. Physical processes, aging and degradation have about the same key fundamentals related to the battery lifespan.

Here is a big thread with many technical details, charts and proofs. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/posts/7637770/

This is a false statement. Li-Ion battery likes to have a short charge/discharge cycles! It only improves the battery lifespan! My iPhone 14 is about 8 months old. Always put it on the wireless charger pad in Tesla. And phone battery health is still showing 100%. Much better battery health...

The back windows and liftgate windows are not tinted. This is a dyed glass. The difference is - that this glass don't create protection agains UV and Infrared rays. It blocks some UV but not Infrared. The roof glass has a special coating which blocks the UV and IR very well, so it does not have...

- clean the screen from the fingerprints - clean the glass sunroof - erase not needed sentry mode videos from the flash drive - vacuum trunk, undertrunk and frunk - refresh a music playlist with some new cool stuff - sing one karaoke song - play at least one game for 20 min in Arcade - make sure...

Model Y, August 2022. So for me the USS went back to normal. Probably it was some software glitch.

Hey what's up neighbor. I am here at Frisco )) Same thing, as yours. Car always plugged in. Daily driving charge limit set to 60%, and charge to 100% for the road trips.

This is what a Wall Connector manual says: You don't need to worry about power surges. Wall connectors has a protection agains this. Or in the worst case scenario, you have a car insurance, and "comprehensive" coverage covers stuff like this.

What is it and where did you get it? Do you have a photo?

Sounds like you need to reach tesla support to address that

I am 6'4" and find the Y to be very comfortable. I am surprised that with 6'2" you say that you sit relatively close to the dash. Are your lags that short that you can't reach pedals or (this is what I assume) you just got used to the seating position from the past experience to keep a short...

Tesla increased incentives for the referral of X and S models from 6,000 to 20,000 credits! Pretty big jump! And buyer, tho uses referral code, get a $1000 price discount and 3 months of Full Self-Driving.

Austin makes AWD and LR models (I have LR from Austin) Fremont LR and P models

Yeah.. don't babysit the battery. Charge to 80% daily and it will give you 150 miles of guaranteed range any given time (except maybe cold winter). Recommendation to keep battery about 50-60% related more to the storage of the battery... when you don't drive, or drive occasionally, better to...

Person who bought from Carmax don't know how to use tesla.com? It's just so weird, buying used car more expensive than exactly the same brand new. What if previous owner of that tesla forgot to charge the battery and it was sitting with 1% charge for few months in his garage? Carmax made a...

It's a tax credit. If his income more than 150K single or 300K couples - then he is not qualify.

Not sure how TeslaFi algorithms work. If you REALLY concern about this chart (don't forget that you have 8 year/120K miles battery warranty), you can run battery test using tesla service mode. I am sure it's the most accurate gauge of battery health.

Apparently, after the yesterdays software update 2023.12.9. my USS sensors operation back to normal. Not sure what was that...
