So, just installed update v2023.26.1 and checked out Camera View On TESLA App. REPORT: It sucks! The feature update graphic seems to imply that we TESLA owners will finally have that cool—if not passé—feature that just about every Chevy and FORD crossover has where multiple camera angles are...

Currently running iOS app v4.23.2. Am I crazy, or has the red color of the TESLA logo in the iOS app icon changed to a slightly lighter shade of red? If I’m not mistaken, I believe it used to be a deeper red, more akin to the “TMC red”. Am I the only one who has noticed this??? (Yes, I’m weird.)

My 2023 Model Y has never exhibited this issue before, but my wife was about to back out of the garage yesterday to take the TESLA to her meeting and all the cameras (except the rear camera) began showing lines on the screen. (SEE ATTACHED EXAMPLE.) Apparently, you cannot ATTACH video clips here...

I was interested in the Model Y Power Frunk kit, which I originally saw available on Hansshow’s site, but I found it cheaper on Tlyard’s website so I bought it from them. HUGE mistake! They had a 3-pack deal they were offering, so I bought the Model Y Power Frunk kit, the Rear Lift Gate Kick...

We used to call it “global warming”, but now we call it “climate change”. No doubt, “times, they are a changing.” It seems that “ICE vehicles” (internal combustion engine vehicles) is too difficult for most people to follow, so now some are calling them “thermal vehicles”. I read an interesting...

Does anyone know if and/or when Midnight Cherry Red is coming to the USA? My wife absolutely loves the color and would very much like me to buy her a Model Y (LR/AWD) in that color. (Sorry if there is already a thread for this. I searched but could not find a thread with this exact question.)

2023 Model Y (LR/AWD) Just thought I would ask the TMC community here before I consult with a TESLA technician. Just today, I noticed that the two air pistons that move the rear lift gate up and down exist in an opposing manner, almost like yin-yang. (SEE PHOTOS) Is this normal, or should the...

Totally does not matter, but I often nerd out thinking about efficiency and optimization. (I was an efficiency expert for UPS for 15yrs.) As my title says, this one’s just for S&G’s… Now that it’s warming up a bit outside, as I drove home today, the thought occurred to me to turn OFF the A/C...

Took our first road trip in the 2023 Model Y (LR/AWD), and we barely made it to the first TESLA Supercharger with -4% SOC. (That is correct; NEGATIVE 4% SOC.) This first TESLA Supercharger location recommended that we charge up to 80% SOC, but I charged a little longer (up to 85% SOC) as a...

Just drove down into CA and back home on a road trip with my family of five. - Drove 1,367mi total. - Used TESLA Superchargers mostly. - Average TESLA Supercharger price: $0.40/kWh (MIN: $0.34/kWh | MAX: $0.48/kWh) NOTE: I pay an average of $0.08353/kWh to charge at home, so...

I just had my first tire rotation at my local tire shop after 5k miles. (Made sure they use a rubber pad on their lifts and not metal cleats that can puncture my battery pack.) I thought I read/heard that something in the TESLA Settings menu needs to be updated or reset when tires are rotated...

Just watched a YouTube video about NACS by MKB-HD that was published just 10hrs ago. Marquis Brownlee uses the TESLA mobile app for Android, but his TESLA mobile app shows the price per kWh charged by TESLA for each Supercharger location that he pulls up in the TESLA mobile app. I use the TESLA...

Has anyone ever experienced this? Went on a weekend stay-cation this past weekend. Spent a night downtown and parked my 2023 Model Y (LR/AWD) in the hotel parking garage but did not charge it overnight. Once we got home around 3pm on Monday (yesterday), I parked in my garage and plugged in...

Have not yet had my tires rotated with my 2023 TESLA Model Y (LR/AWD) at 4,346mi, but I’ve noticed that there is a sensation of my front tires rubbing when I am making tight turns. Now, my tires and wheels are all stock, original tires from the factory, and I have not modified them in any way...

Is the actual and usable battery pack size printed on a sticker somewhere and/or listed somewhere in the OS that we can research that? I read online (forgot to document the source) that claimed the following… 2023 Model Y Performance (LR/AWD) BATTERY PACK SIZE...

I took delivery of my 2023 Model Y (LR/AWD) NOV2022, and I’ve never owned a TESLA before. After more than 3mos now, it seems clear that my Model Y knows the difference between “the freeway” and just any other road. NOTE: Where I live, there is only one “freeway” (i.e. Interstate) to speak of...

2023 TESLA Model Y (LR/AWD) Took delivery 89 days ago. Model Y has been parked in my garage for 1hr this evening after getting home. It’s plugged into my Wall Connector, but it doesn’t start charging until 9pm. Meanwhile, 1hr after arriving home in the garage, some loud-ish fan noise is coming...

It snowed all through the night last night and into this morning, and as I was on my way to drop my daughter off at school, I noticed that my 2023 Model Y was not stopping in “HOLD” mode as it normally does in my driver profile. I checked the settings menu and found this…(SEE PHOTO). The words...

(NOTE: I searched and searched TMC for an answer to this Q and cannot find anything that addresses my Q, specifically.) I have read/heard that charging to 80% unless before a long road trip (and/or keeping the SOC 20% -80%) is best. However, I wanted to ask about daily habits. Road trips are...

I had TESLA service install my HomeLink that I purchased from TESLA. It was expensive, but it works great—except for Auto-close, which only seems to work about 20% of the time. I had TESLA Service come out to my house, and even their technician was bamboozled. He had to do more research and get...

I know a lot of people hate/d the Model S additional seating option that added two rear-facing seats for children, but I didn’t think it was that bad. (NOTE: Never owned the Model S; only test drove it, and my boys sat in the rear-facing seats. They were maybe six and eight years old at the...

Just noticed in the last few days that I can no longer view my charger stats in the TESLA iOS app. I am running the most current update (v4.15.3). What is peculiar is that this feature seemingly disappearing has coincided (coincidentally) with my TESLA Wall Connector being installed this week...

Am I the only one who has noticed that the “ghost body” image of the TESLA in the HVAC UI (when you press the “REAR” tab) is actually a Model 3 and NOT a Model Y??? You can make out a roof support beam atop the B-pillar—which the Model Y does NOT have—and the rear deck behind the backseat...

So I bought this Autopilot “nag reduction device” from eBay (“Steering Wheel Booster for Tesla Model 3 Y 2016-2021 Counterweight Ring US”) from “idealseller-002”. Long story short: It doesn’t work. When I attempted to return this item, the seller kept contacting me, offering me $5.00 if I would...

So I’m lying on the table like a human pretzel when my chiropractor says to me in the midst of our “I just bought a TESLA” discussion that Elon had just said that TESLA will be adopting hydrogen-powered technology into the lineup as the only path forward, etc. I told my doc, “No chance he said...

Just got my 2023 TESLA Model Y, and I am enjoying the heck out of it! My TESLA Wall Connector is not yet installed, so I am rocking my TESLA Mobile Connector @ 12A via 120v plug. (I know—Ouch!!!) Anyway, where I live, it’s currently 28F cold outside. (I am parking/charging in my driveway until...

NEW 2023 Model Y Came with EAP for 30 Days Using AP/EAP in city traffic on long multi-lane roads with lots of red lights. EAP always stops, but it often brakes so late when there is a vehicle directly in front of me that I’m worried some moron behind me will crash into the back of me if he/she...

I love my new Model Y, and I love the Pixar film, “Cars”. IMO, the Model Y really resembles the caricature nature of Lightning McQueen. Would love to see one (probably not mine) in a wrap made to look like a replica of Lightning McQueen from the first “Cars” film. Anyone seen such a thing?????

- Manufactured in Austin. - No USS. - Includes “Comfort Suspension” (new feature Tweeted out by Elon recently). - Includes heat pump. - Includes rear hatch upper privacy shroud. Does anyone know how I can tell if my Austin-made Model Y came with 4680 battery cells rather than 2170 battery...

My Model Y order is in queue with a DEC2022 estimated delivery date. I was originally interested in getting the TESLA add-on tow hitch for $1,000 because I plan to eventually purchase a travel trailer and would love to tow it with my new Model Y (as I have no other vehicles capable of towing)...

So, I ordered my Model Y on 09/20/2022 and selected FSD (for $15k). I am starting to rethink my FSD choice, as I am unsure that it is a good value @ $15k. I have been vigorously watching many of the FSD videos put out by YouTubers, and while, unquestionably, FSD has gotten markedly better in...
