    Tesla Auto Insurance

    Yes, because the premium will change based on your safety score.

    Have you used RPM Tesla's Noice Reduction Kits?

    I was also having this issue. Seemed to get worse with colder weather. Had a mobile tech come to my house and replace the entire door seal for free, and the issue is now completely resolved. Nudging the window down was really annoying.

    Tesla 3 Noise

    It's just the heat pump warming up the battery and climate inside the car. Totally normal, although it shouldn't be "unbearably" loud. Mine sounds similar in volume to a civic engine at first. Will turn off after normal operating temps are reached

    Tire pressure when cold recommendation for Model 3

    Mine have been ~42psi since I took delivery 2 months ago. Drop to 40psi when it's colder. I don't like high pressure in my tires, it makes the ride quality noticeably harsher, so I'm just gonna leave them as is.

    MASTER THREAD: Removing marks from white seats

    I took delivery Sept 4th, and noticed pretty quickly my jeans dye transferred and also saw creases forming. That left door side in particular has a big crease, and I dont understand why, based on how I sit normally in the car. Anyone have ideas on how to get creases out? Almost thought about...

    Should I get a Model 3 Performance? Charging concerns.

    No, he posted an updated test video at some point, I do have the screen shot at least. The results are night and day, dyno or not. Also, feels right to me. I’ve floored my 2022 performance at 15% and it’s still blistering fast

    Service Mode- What can I do with it?

    You can enter service mode anywhere. Just did it at home a few days ago to play around with it.

    Should I get a Model 3 Performance? Charging concerns.

    Just so you know, that chart is not accurate anymore. Has been fully tested by someone named Bjorn on Youtube, and after software updates this year, the performance drops slowly and smoothly with SOC drop. Nothing like what is shown here.

    Is it me, but are 2018-2020s are better builds than 2021/22s?

    Not a chance, the 2022's out of Fremont are far better and more consistently well put together. Quieter, smoother suspension, you name it. My 2022 performance is near perfect, and the others on the lot I looked at when I took delivery on 9/3 also looked good. People forget the issues the...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    My M3P I took delivery of on September 3rd has been essentially perfect. Seemed to me that the quality of cars out of Fremont has gotten consistently better.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Took delivery today! Delayed a few hours again from 10:30am to 1:30pm, but by golly I got it! No issues whatsoever (aside from bluetooth being finicky), everything is even, panel gaps are minimal, paint is perfect, and the interior is wonderful. I was also pleasantly surprised by how little...

    Same here, although me new delivery window in the app is the 1st - 5th. Getting really annoyed by the delays.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I texted my agent today and confirmed I can just bring my fillable credit union check and pay with that. This is in MD, perhaps I'm lucky?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Got delayed a couple days to Saturday. Works out fine for me, can get there early, don’t need to rush from work. Is this common?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I just realized, if my Tesla doesn't come with the mobile charger, then I have no way to charge my car do I? Is there no 120V adapter I can use?

    Delivery scheduled! Ugh the waiting is so hard 😓

    The little nickel and dime cost cutting measures are kinda ridiculous

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Got a text saying the car was just built and left the factory. Kind of worries me a bit, since I absolutely cannot take delivery before September 1st. Hopefully the shipping is very slow. Also no idea where I would be picking it up, but I suppose the agent will let me know at some point.

    Did you receive the mobile connector? I keep hearing about people still getting them in the frunk, and am hopeful

    Must be a large east coast shipment leaving Fremont soon. Everyone is getting the same ED of Aug 30 - Sep 03

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Wow, I am SO glad Tesla insurance came to Maryland. Progressive was quoting me around $1300/year, and mind you this is with tons of discounts since I have quite a few varied policies with them. Tesla just quoted me $40/month, or $480/year ($500 deduct). Anyone have a reason I shouldn't just...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Just got my new VIN! Delivery date is now 8/30 - 9/3. I can't believe how well the 2 week hold on my account went. I had specifically asked the Tesla Agent to get my delivery as close to September 1st as possible (closing on a house 8/31). Time to go buy insurance! Can hardly contain my...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Came off my 2 week hold that was placed on my account. Immediately got a new 2 week window which is nice. 8/26-9/7. The agent had said I may have had to start my wait all over again, so it’s nice to see that isn’t true. I’ll update my sig later today.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    For anyone else who ends up needing a delay in delivery, this is what the SA texted me back: Hello! As you are unable to pick up your Model 3 until September and we have a 3 day policy for needing customers to pick up their cars once it arrives on site, we will need to release this VIN to...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Just got a VIN assigned, sooner than I expected. Shame, I have to tell them I can’t take delivery until September 1st. I have a home purchase closing on 8/31, and can’t have this financing show up on the underwriting. Kinda wish I could give the VIN to #Flatbroke 😂 Edit: it’s 320xxx in case...

    I suppose so. I don't know if it's getting delivered in Devon PA, or Wilmington DE, or Owings Mills.

    I checked my OD this morning, and got my first 2 week window! Aug 6-19

    Good, looks like I’ll get my 2 week window next week (OD 06/15)

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    You 100% should, no reason not to. NFCU has been great, 2.99% is about the best you’ll get these days. Dunno how people are getting less, especially after rates went up July 1st. Anyway, hoping for a 2 week window Fri/Mon coming up!

    You misunderstand. It’s June 2023 🤣

    Yeah I don’t like it. Mine hasn’t changed yet, but I’m starting to wonder if Fremont is having some issues.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I'm also using Navy Federal. Luckily, I had put in for financing on June 21st, since I knew it was very likely the rates would go up on July 1st. What did you end up getting? I feel pretty good with my 2.99% with current market conditions.

    I'm driving my 2011 piece of crap V6 Mustang (120k miles) with NO working AC. I feel you. Longest wait of my freakin life

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Ultimately I want both privacy & heat protection. I'll likely get final opinions from the shop doing the work and from my best friend who's a sergeant in the Maryland State Police. But sounds like 20% is the way to go, with perhaps 70% on the windshield.
  37. B

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I can see that. I wonder how 20% would do. Been debating between staying legal in Maryland at 35%, or just doing 20%. Seemed like 20% was they way to go on the white interior since it's so visible. Tough decision.

    Same, I also ordered the 15th, and I'm still stuck on August 1st - 29th

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    My EDD just updated again. Been tightened up slightly. August 1st to the 29th. As a reminder, I ordered the white on white June 16th and my last estimated window was July 29th to September 2nd. So not much. Here’s hoping it’s sooner.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Beautiful! Although it does confirm that I need to get my car tinted the same day I take delivery.
  42. B

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I'm actually glad to be in the next quarter for deliveries. You know they're rushing them out of the factory, which likely means a higher chance of quality concerns. I can wait.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I believe it was the June 16th, the morning of the latest price increases. I felt the time was now. They can (and will) raise the price of the P soon

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Obsessively checking my app payed off today. I am no longer getting #Flatbroke’d Went from 11/22-01/20, to 07/29-09/02!

    Thanks, I changed my answers to those questions. Hope I didn't screw myself. Had no idea you could change them later lol

    Oh, does filling out the steps in the app (trade-in and financing) move you up? I was going to wait.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    What is Flatbroking? I ordered the M3P white/white as soon as I heard about the price increase on the LR. The website said it would be July - Aug, but my Tesla app is saying Nov 23 - Jan 20. This seems abnormally long for this trim. Any ideas folks?
