    have the radio screen automatically present at start up

    My question is pretty much in the subject line: I'd like to have the radio pesent itself when I get in the car. 99% of the time I don't need the navigation map when is the default. Is it possible to program the radio to be the default start up item? Thanks

    Driving and charging history

    I have my M3 in the shop for repainting and the painter has been out for a couple of weeks with a family emergency. Is there some way to see how much charge is remaining and what driving activity has been from the app?

    26 paint chips in less than 9 months

    Just FYI I learned today that I need to wait at least 30 days after the paint guy touches up all the chips. 40 would be better. Bottom line: PPF your TM3 as soon as you get it. Tesla is negant in their paint process and knowingly F&*^ purchasers. I thought Elon was a better man than...

    26 paint chips in less than 9 months

    I have too many chips for the amount of time I've owned the car. I'm 68 and between me and my ex, I have more than 7x vehicles to compare. This is pitiful. What is to be done? Took it in and the Tesla shop spoke out of both sides of their mouths... 'this is normal' and 'This is more than...

    touch screen stopped working

    I have never used the sentry drive and never rebooted. I'll have to research how to do so.

    touch screen stopped working

    Just returned from a multi day, multi location road trip. On my return home my touch screen stopped registering any finger inputs. Why would it do that and what is the solution to get the touch screen to work again. None of the screen options are functioning. Thanks

    Change Radio Favorites

    the only solution I have been able to find is delete all favorites and then add them in REVERSE sequence of least to most desired so that the most used are on top and the least used are at the end.

    Change Radio Favorites

    I have a few radio stations for my grandkids I never use unless they are in my car. I'd like to put them at the end of the favorites list. How do I do that?

    supercharger data base?

    Newbie asking: I'd like to know all the options for superchargers rather than relying on the nav app directing me. Went on my first road trip this weekend and it was directing me to use a station when my battery would still be at 46% of charge rather than a lesser amount even though I knew...

    newbie charging question

    I typically charge in my home's garage with a Tesla wall charger. I've been reading that it is good to plug in my TM3 everyday. Also, it is good to recharge when the battery is < 20% charged. So I tried to reduce the charge amount to less than 50% but the app won't let me set it lower...

    Does adding a stealth hitch negatively affect the M3’s value.

    Hope not and don't think so. I just had one installed and, for me, it was value added.

    Model 3 recommendations for accessories and protection?

    phone key connected but no recent calls, cant make calls through car

    I've had my TM3 about 7 weeks now. I've paired my phone and the key function works. The app reports data correctly. But, my recent calls, favorites and such don't present themselves. Also, it doesn't accept voice commands to make calls. What am I doing wrong? I have an iPhone 12...

    If you had to do it again, would anyone NOT get the white interior?

    I've had light interiors in the past. Regretted it. I think they should offer either as standard but I would have chosen black regardless.

    I really like Hansshow Ultra Mini Screen Display

    This looks good to me. I worry about it becoming an orphan product though when Tesla does updates, it'll be left behind.

    Screen viewing by old eyes

    I have good long range eyesight but poor short range. The ribbon at the top of the screen is slightly too small for me to see without glasses. I'd like to make the top ribbon larger/easier to read. Is there some way to expand it? Thanks

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Good guesses IMHO.... I really wish the Gov't would stop creating winners and losers and screwing up free markets. Especially with my taxes. I get to pay for it but don't get the benefit of it. How is that fair!

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I don't get Tesla. I needed a mobile charger and they are out of stock on the website. My SC has one but the bag they sell has the cable and a J1772, no plugs :( You can buy plugs a la carte :rolleyes:. $20 for a 110 volt and $50 for a 14-50. Why they include a J1772 when one is provided...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Be patient. So many of us have had EDD whip-lash as Tesla bounced us back and forth, seemingly random dates. I went from jan-apr 2023 to dec 2022 to vin # and 3 days in the span of Sept 1 - Sept 12. Craziness

    Model 3 tow hitch door dimension?

    FYI, uhaul will install a hitch. I'm betting that they would not if there were concerns.

    2" tow hitch

    According to uhaul, tow weight is 2,000 lbs. Tongue weight is typically 10% so 200 lbs. 2 bikes + rack is probably close to that limit
