    Tesla FSD Subscription Now $99/Month | Tesla Motors Club Podcast #62

    Agree about the speed limit issues. That is my only major problem. The high schools in my area are all built on major streets. 35mph during the week between 7am and 4pm, and 45mph on weekends, holidays spring breaks etc. The car doesn’t respond accordingly. When I run errands locally I don’t...

    This is the official retrofit of model 3 CCS been announced?

    That’s interesting. Going on a road trip at the end of the month so I better check if a local supercharger works fine and an electrify America charger. My home Tesla wall charger works fine since the retrofit.

    2020 M3LR retrofitted this morning. Easy peasy. Start banging them out BP.

    Repeater Camera fix

    Gap problem solved today by mobile tech. The latest revision cameras come with a small square block of rubberized foam on the back that puts pressure outward on the pointed tail of the camera in case the installed camera is loose when snapped in. I asked him to remove the rubber blocks and...

    Repeater Camera fix

    Searched a while to find repeater camera removal video that shows the gap at the top of the camera housing even before removal has begun. Maybe mine was always this way and I never looked close enough. I guess the chrome was blinding my eyes 😉

    Repeater Camera fix

    Thank you for this information. The updated repeaters are the latest revision so I assume they would be properly sealed in the back. It makes sense if they were really worried about this issue, they would include gaskets for the housings.

    Repeater Camera fix

    Thank you for validating my concern. I will ask Tesla service to have another go at it. I will look at other options for the chrome trim before putting the old ones back on. The old covers have the Tesla logo stamped in.

    Repeater Camera fix

    I laid the old chrome covers over the new cameras and no overhang unfortunately. It doesn’t look obvious from a couple feet away. I was concerned about dust, dirt or water getting in behind the front quarters.

    Repeater Camera fix

    Just had my side repeater cameras replaced on Black 2020 M3LR. They did not come with the chrome covers. However I watched a video on how to carefully strip off the the old chrome covers and have them saved to put on later after testing the new cameras for a few weeks. HOWEVER: The new cameras...

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    I do one extra thing after cleaning coils and changing filters, both the cabin filters and the pre-filter. I spray microban down the tunnels that open to the rear floor vents.

    Thoughts on not choosing acceleration boost on M3LR

    Drive LR for a month in Chill mode. Turn Standard back on and it does feel like you bought Boost. Try it, it works.

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    Bought used 2020 M3LR in Oct 2022. Very bad smell! Changed to charcoal filters and used Klima cleaner. Added water dam under frunk hood and Farmogo air inlet filter(best air flow). Has been over a year and no smell at all.

    Uncomfortable driver seat

    It wasn’t the seat being soft enough for me, it was that the 2020 seat had sunk over time and the V created by the bolsters was pushing hard on my hips. The cushion was mainly for raising my rear higher in the seat. I didn’t want to tear into the seat like others have done. The beauty of putting...

    OEM CCS adapter now available to order in North America, Retrofit for older cars coming in 2023

    Driver & Front Passenger Temp Controls

    This is true. I have also found that it is permanently split. There doesn’t seem to be a way to adjust the drivers side and passenger side at the same time when the passenger is in the car. Unless I am missing something?

    Uncomfortable driver seat

    Yes cut off the hump so the foam piece you cut out is flat and slightly rectangular. Cut so the width doesn’t overhang the oem side bolsters as this will just make the side of you hips tighter. The goal with this piece is to soften the seating and raise you slighty higher than the V that is...

    Air intake filter - yes or no?

    Farmogo after 6 months! Glad I have it and glad I just changed it out. All that crud would have been in my lower filters. I put the white box next to the old filter to compare the color white it should be.

    Apple Music problems-Sometimes won't play

    No. I’m sure it’s a software glitch. When Apple Music app first came out for Tesla, it would start the music when a door was opened even though you had paused it before you got out. That got fixed in a subsequent software update. So I’m optimistic this will be addressed down the software road.

    Apple Music problems-Sometimes won't play

    Same issue with my 2020M3LR and latest software. Only thing that fixes it temporarily is to log out and log back in. Then it works for a day or less. Keep getting “Select media source”. However I can play Apple Music through my phone Bluetooth like the old days🤔

    Uncomfortable driver seat

    This did not raise me up high enough on my trip to Cali where I put 1300 miles on the trip. Still sore. Still sinking in. I bought a memory foam seat pad on Amazon and cut it to fit under seat bottom cover. I cut it to fit the back half of the seat. This eliminates the tear down of the OEM seat...

    Audio Starts Playing when opening a door

    Interesting thing is that it works like it should with the factory “Streaming” app but not with new Apple Music app.

    Audio Starts Playing when opening a door

    Bottom line is if you pause it before you get out of the car, this means you don’t want it to automatically turn back on if a door opens, period.

    Uncomfortable driver seat

    Recently bought this aftermarket seat bottom cover with leg extender to reduce side bolster pinch. It’s foam padded and not as stretchy as the OEM vegan so it raises me up enough to feel comfortable now. I have only used it around town, no road trips yet. It may break in and sink in after a...

    Changing bottom seat cushion?

    Can you give me a ballpark cost for the replacement? I bought a used 2020 M3LR and the drivers seat is very stained with blue jeans. I don’t want to buy a seat cover set for just the drivers seat bottom.

    Spotify vs Apple Music

    Agree, this is an Apple Music or Tesla bug with integration. It is annoying as after you pause the music when you get out of the car, either by display or steering wheel, when you get back in the music starts automatically. This doesn’t happen with Spotify.

    Air intake filter - yes or no?

    I would get the deflector and not allow intake filter to get wet. I can literally spray water all over my windshield when I’m washing the car and nothing at inlet gets wet😀

    Air intake filter - yes or no?

    Farmogo works very well and doesn’t restrict. I also have the after market full water deflector under the frunk hood that doesn’t allow water to get to the air intake.
