Can confirm this is the solution. I swapped out the puddle light from one of the footwells to the door at issue and PROBLEM SOLVED!

Got it resolved today. There was a document missing that the dealership needed to resubmit to Tesla. All good!

I repaired a wrecked 2020 M3P last year and was excited to see that Tesla offered a process for allowing cars back on their supercharger network. I scheduled a service to have that inspection performed and the car passed. As part of that process, they have to pull the HV battery and inspect...

It was around $700 for the inspection. They said it could take up to a week to propagate through the system. I tried it on Saturday (after a week) and still got the dreaded "Supercharging not enabled" error.

Sorry for the late reply. I don't have a picture but it looks like every other CV axle I've seen in my 30+ years as a shadetree mechanic.

They approved it after the salvage inspection! Apparently a 3/16" dent isn't too much. They said they would have to pressure test the pack to make sure it is intact, but that must have also passed.

Thanks for the replies - they are light creases unrelated to the accident but very related to a careless forklift driver moving the car at some point. I'll contact the service department.

The wheels came with center cap decals that I never got around to applying. They were hub-centric and no spacers/centering rings needed.

Sorry for the delay in responding - I bought these: 18x8.5 MSW Type 30 BLK MACH and these tires: 235/45R-18 Pirelli Winter Sottozero 3 XL I'll see if I can get a few pictures and post them here. I bought literally the least expensive rims without any consideration to their appearance. At...

Does anyone know what they inspect for the re-certify process? They inspect the HV components, but that doesn't explain any pass/fail criteria or what they even look for. I have a few scratches on the bottom surface of my battery and would really like to understand if there is a depth...

Thanks everyone for the feedback! I just bought a set from tire rack. The centering rings aren't that big of a deal for me since I can use some silicone or other removable adhesive to keep them on the rims.

I've got a 2020 AWD performance and need to get some winter tires/wheels and absolutely do not care what they look like. Since these will live in the slush and may hit a curb once in a while, they just need to be round, fit, and hold air. From what I understand, 18" is the minimum size, so...

According to the tire rack, M3 performance can go down to 18" but I don't know how close that gets you to the calipers.

It does swap without too much fanfare. The worst part was draining the coolant and ATF=9 fluid. Here are some pics of the internals if anyone is interested. The last pic shows the chewed up surface where the CV axle mates up. I'm going to try a local machine shop first to see if they can...

Hello everyone, I just purchased a 2020 model 3 performance with some damage on the front right side. The inner CV boot was damaged so decided to replace the CV axle on that side. When I went to pull it out, i noticed that it was pretty loose and wobbly where it met the front drive unit...
