    Groaning sound when turning + slowing under regen braking low speeds

    There is someone on reddit with a video of an identical noise that claims Tesla replaced the front drive unit and this was the solution.

    Youtube resolution now locked at 360p after update?

    I rarely use youtube in the car but randomly decided to this morning after the update and sure enough, 360p locked. :(

    Groaning sound when turning + slowing under regen braking low speeds

    I took my M3P in today and as expected was turned away with no fix. “Verified noise with customer on site. Upon further inspection i found that this is a normal characteristic of this vehicle due to high tolerances between the halfshafts and the front drive unit. This noise may lessen as more...

    Any luck with the motor replacement, @Allblack ?

    Groaning sound when turning + slowing under regen braking low speeds

    I have a similar/same issue on my new '22 M3P. I'm hesitant to take it for service as based on past experience I don't have much faith in them fixing it. Anyone have any luck?

    New model 3 LR, grinding sound during turns, SC says ok?

    @driveeast Did this ever go away? My brand new M3P is making the same exact sound.

    Power Conversion System (PCS) failure

    I have access to the service manual. For what it's worth, the service of "Power Conversion System (Remove and Replace)" is a 2.45 hour labor job. It is filed under these categories: 16 - Battery System > 1630 - HV Battery Electrical Components

    Power Conversion System (PCS) failure

    +1 Here. Like others, I just recently upgraded to a gen3 wall connector after charging with a mobile connector for the past 4 years and immediately got throttled to 32amps with the PCS alert. First available service appointment is a month away.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    At least you'll know it will be safe, hopefully! I'm in Orlando and commuting to work this week. I spent the entire weekend and Monday washing, polishing, and ceramic coating the car, and I'm just now putting some real miles on it today. I think I may drive my wife's 2018 Model 3 for the rest of...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I managed to fix the speaker crackling sound that I had on my first drive home from delivery. I simply added some tesa tape behind the a-pillar speaker to stop it from contacting metal and shorting out. If anyone has the same issue at delivery and doesn’t want to wait for service, this video is...

    Thanks! I wasn’t sure the $2k red would be worth it, but I have no regrets now!

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Well, today was my delivery day. Given the really poor customer service experiences I’ve had with Tesla here in Orlando since 2018, I was skeptical that there was even a car ready for me until I finally saw it in person. They pulled it up to the front within 5 minutes of my scheduled time. I...

    My final docs just came in in the app for review/e-sign. Looks to be the same docs that have been previously available via Tesla.com. Less than 24 hours to go!

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Good morning, all. Nothing new here - just waiting on my Friday delivery and cringing as carvana and other used car prices rapidly drop for my trade in. I just noticed something that I wanted to point out in case anyone else is unaware: My app still does not yet show the final documents for...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Congrats and good luck! Mine is scheduled for next Friday. I’m hoping nothing delays it because I have a decent trade in offer from them that expires Oct 4.

    Got a txt today saying my car has left the factory! Current EDD is Sep 20-24.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Do it! Although I actually wouldn't recommend the Performance trim to most people. I've owned a 2018 LR RWD Model 3 and a 2019 M3P. The 20's that come on the P are stupid heavy, curb prone, and have even more expensive tires with less life. The carbon fiber spoiler peels back on many performance...

    Just got a VIN this morning also, 352xxx. Hopefully that’s not a reject.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I'm planning to pay cash and I will either pay the full amount or the amount after trade in of my 2019 M3P if they give me a decent offer. Do they accept final payment via plaid the day of delivery? or would I have to do that a few days before? I'd prefer not to give them the payment until I see...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Merry Christmas! Damn. That's even further off from the current estimate (Sep-Oct) they show when first ordering than mine was. (OD 8/1, current EDD 10/22-12/3).

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    M3P, Red with Black interior, basic autopilot OD: 8/3/22 EDD: 10/22/22 - 12/3/22 I guess the current "September - October" date for performance on the website was a little optimistic. This is my 3rd Tesla, though, so I'm no stranger to delays and waiting. Good luck, all!

    Autopilot & cruise control unavailable 2022.16.3

    My functionality has been restored after letting the car sleep overnight, however it's still behaving oddly as ever with unsafe ping-ponging and side of the lane hugging at high speeds. I'm leaving my appointment open to see if they will do a remote diag, but my hopes for any help with that...

    Autopilot & cruise control unavailable 2022.16.3

    Any response from Tesla yet? I got the same errors as well on 2022.16.3 this morning with no visualizations on my HW3 2019 Model 3. I also opened a service appointment but haven't heard back yet. Normally I wouldn't be so quick to make an appointment, but I've been having erratic autopilot...
