    MYLR 2023 Pin Holes of Rust

    probably just rail dust or oxidized metal debris from the road. Is your car white? Just use some elbow grease or get some iron x spray to remove.

    4 Wheel drive on Model Y?

    Just to add, once the issue is fixed your Y will perform great in snow. Here in Chicago we got a lot of sleet/snow and ice this past week and it's now -10 degrees. Averaging roughly 100miles a day and the Y is handling it all. Car is lowered and running all season tires and the only issue is...

    4 Wheel drive on Model Y?

    You have a bad ABS Wheel Speed Sensor. Most likely one of your front sensors. Theres a cable/sensor that runs from the wheel up the strut then turns hard 90 degrees towards the front of the car. Most likely it's pinched or pulled which causes these errors. I've had it happen to me in good...

    Cold Weather Chicago?

    Very few teslas? Come to the northern burbs where model Y's have taken over minivans, highlanders, and pilots. No issues with the Y in chicago weather, I actually prefer it over my old highlander. I believe we had a pretty good cold spell (-10) last year and the Y was less efficient maybe...

    Tire Valve Leaks Air when caps are off

    If you take a cap off can you see the valve core? I recall getting a set of TPMS once and 1 did not have a valve core installed. Air should not leak when you remove the caps

    My Model Y smells, does it happen to yours?

    Agreed I don’t think this video helps 2022 and later Y owners.

    Can anyone verify if they have this issue with left rear seat ? It's a 5 seater by the way.

    mine is sort of like this, basically the right seat doesn't fully lock at the furthest laid back setting. Tesla said thats the way it should be but couldn't answer me when I showed him the left side reclined and locked a little further back. i gave up and just set them both at what I think is...

    Best Mud Flaps Head-to-Head comparison?

    Unpopular opinion but i had RA and didn't care for the look. Too big and boxy and really hid the rear wheel from behind which took away from the aggressive look of my tires. I'm sure they are the most effective for this reason though. $180 for mudflaps? I went back to my stock mud flaps...

    Car vibrates after installing aftermarket wheels and tires

    were the rotor bolts removed? Some wheels do not clear the stock bolt and needs to be removed in order for wheels to sit flush to rotor: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/rotor-retention-bolt-aftermarket-wheel-install.187867/

    Y 21' Performance Wheel making weird sound.

    really? Thought it was pretty common. I think it looks better. Gives the big wheel some depth, stock looked too flat for me. Here’s a zoomed picture, sorry don’t have anything else since I swapped wheels and they’re currently in storage.

    Y 21' Performance Wheel making weird sound.

    Not for me. I never liked the look of the cap and removed it the first day. I used lug covers and still had the squishy noise. Finally went away a couple months ago but then I switched rims. Good luck

    Y 21' Performance Wheel making weird sound.

    it's from a sticker that's on the tire bead from the manufacturer on the inside of the tire. Only fix is to remove the tire and either remove the sticker or sand it down. Or you can wait a few thousand miles and it will wear off. Had the same issue and it took mine 15k miles to go away...

    Rusty leaks from the pipe damaged car painting

    you can try an iron remover spray. Let it sit on the spot until it turns purple then wipe away https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07C39H9YX/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&th=1

    Do all Model Y rear trunk glass stick out?

    Mine is a little off towards the drivers side. Bothers me everyday. So much so I’m considering a subtle roof spoiler to hide it over risking it with my SC.

    Vendor Closed!!! Lasfit windshield snow cover is coming!

    a windshield snow cover sounds great. I never pre-melt to save energy anyway but relying on a brush and scraper method isn't always ideal in chicago temps. I could see a windshield cover working in both snow and ice.

    NVX Boost Subwoofer upgrade - installed

    Swapped the stock NVX sub with my old trusty IDMAX12 in a ported box. Just wanted to see, was not let down. The VADM1 is a great piece of gear, output at 2ohms is more than enough for the IDMAX me. Hits hard!

    Bump steer during high speed corner

    Yes i've noticed this with the stock suspension and thought MPP coil overs would alleviate the issue but it has not . At least with their recommended settings, it may even be more unpredictable now. Going to try and adjust the settings and see but not sure if i need to go softer or stiffer...

    Weird noise from Model Y

    same issue here however mine is more of a squishy noise, I know it's the tire because i swapped the tire and the noise went away. hoping it will eventually go away for good

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Wow that sounds really close. Does the Y have the same speaker? If not the speaker it does make me wonder if it’s something electrical rather than mechanical like a bearing.

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Needed extra space today so I removed the cargo shelf and folded the seats down and wow the noise was very loud and spanned from 55-80. Normally hear the noise from 72-75. Not saying it’s coming from the rear but if you want the tech to hear the noise fold the seats down, maybe it echoes around...

    I’ll have to check but the other day the wife turned up the temp on her split and I got mad because i said her heat was making my side hot. Hmmm….Maybe I need to apologize to the wife

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Man that noise at 0:55 and 1:03 is exactly the sound. No idea what the noise is proceeding it but doesn't sound good. So many of us have this issue and I bet a whole lot of others do too but do not notice it. Recently met another local Y owner and asked if they had the issue, she said she has...

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    anyone try track mode and adjusting the power/handling bias more towards the rear and seeing if this makes any difference? Might give it a try when I have chance to play with track mode.

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Yep, same sound mine makes when parked. I don't think the two are related, I hopped in my car today when it was making this noise and I couldn't hear it with the doors and windows closed.

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    I’ve had this issue too as I posted before. It does sound like a metal lathe or a cd seeking. Mostly occurs around 72-74MPH. The other day after my usual 35 mile commute, plugged in the car and a fan was still on and I heard a sporatic chirping noise coming from the front. Doesn’t sound anything...

    Pictures Model Y performance on TE37

    i have a bronze almite set on order, still 5-6 months out but received the center caps yesterday. I can say the finish is really nice and much darker than expected. Dark almost black at night and a nice bronze during daylight.
