    Model 3 price dropped by $500 [02.03.2023]

    I’d recommend you go look at both at a service center, drive em, etc. determine which is best for you. Both are great and each have their strengths.

    Model 3 price dropped by $500 [02.03.2023]

    Nobody knows what the changes will be in the M3 update. Could be minor or major, who knows. We also don’t know when they will be available, could be days weeks or months. Price right now is incredible on M3 if you qualify for federal tax credit. You might be able to find a Y before end of March...

    Thanks for the update. My friend did too.

    Model 3 price dropped by $500 [02.03.2023]

    I have a friend in SoCal with M3 RWD on order (ETA 2/18-2/25) and an assigned VIN. They asked the service center this morning about cost adjustment, Tesla responded: "we're awaiting an update from HQ on this one. We are unsure whether or not Tesla will be changing the pricing on existing orders...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Sounds like they have you the wrong part. 1619812-00-B is the correct HEPA part. Vents should go all the way across, not just the left side.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Good idea. I only had hepa installed for 1 or 2 days before BWM was enabled. Would have for sure tried your suggestion though!

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    This is absolutely true. It’s not the BDM we care about really, it’s the fact that when the button is visible, it means the MY knows the car has a HEPA filter and adjusts its airflow / fan programming and speeds. Without the car knowing HEPA Is installed (in other words, BDM being visible) then...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    100% agree. I think I’ve had 3 or 4 updates and so far so good!

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    I think the best way to get the bioweapon button added is via a mobile service appointment for something totally unrelated. In my case, it was a tire rotation and a warranty item. Be nice to the guy, offer food, drink, etc., maybe even offer some $$$ if he can hook you up. It’s under the radar...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Rotation used to be $50 but just went up this week to $65 in southern CA. I completely agree with what you said. I heard Tesla is planning to offer the retrofit but it's been a year and nothing, probably just not a high priority in their list of initiatives. Of course now that I go through it...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    So I just had mobile service out to rotate my tires and I asked the tech about enabling bioweapon mode. He looked in his phone and confirmed my VIN configuration already had "Standard air filter + HEPA (high-efficiency particulate absorbing) air filter (AF02)". Not sure if this changed when I...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Yes, cabin filters are used for all air flow (including re-circulated air). Hepa retrofit listed here is only for outside air.

    Problem with WIFI

    Unfortunately it’s not fixed for me on 2022.16.2. Received on 6/24. Rebooting he system always fixes it for a day or so, then it fails to connect to WiFi all over again. At least the dashcam USB drive issue is finally resolved!

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Picked up my parts yesterday after a ~2 week backorder and installed in my '21 MY last night (original delivery date 6/2021). Installation was super easy, took about 1.5 hours in total as the car already had pre-drilled holes from the factory. As @BreatheEasier mentioned, the parts I ordered...

    Awesome! When did you place your order? I'm still waiting on backorder.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    I did not have any issues placing the parts order through the app, was quite easy thankfully. This morning I asked the SC if they have an ETA on the parts and they wrote: "We do not have an ETA on the duct but the other two pieces are in transit and should be here this week". I asked if we...

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    I posted similar earlier. I had requested the same part you did 1499137-99-C and my SC changed it out to 1499137-50-B (Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y). My MY was built 6/2021, two weeks before HEPA became standard.

    Retro-fitting HEPA filter in Model Y

    Thank you guys so much for sharing all of this information! I ordered my parts yesterday through the Carlsbad service center. They changed one of my parts though. I requested 1499137-99-C (DUCT, Air Intake), which is the correct part number per the EPC, and they replaced with 1499137-50-B. I...
