I don't stop before changing from forward to reverse. Tesla does this nicely on low speeds when parking. Also when we are stuck on snow we want to change forward to reverse quickly multiple times to move away. Don't know if this will be possible with the screen shifting or with those buttons...

I find 11kW the ideal for home charging. It is fast enough that is not inconvenient and slow enough that wont affect battery on the long run. On a extreme situation I had a friend who went to north during hash winter and with mobile charger in a 220v wall socket and car parked outside he could...

I have the same, not from this seller but basically the same. Most likely they come from the same manufacture in china and you can buy individual one easily. I really like them. I find the original 20" Uberturbine awesome, it looks really great. But I preferer them o other people car, not on...

In the end of the day what block lower frequencies is a heavier mass. The ceramic wool is not as heavy of a MLV but if you stuff it in compressing it gets somehow dense, I believe that's why we have experienced a reasonable improvement.

I just spent 2w and 4600km in Norway and the noise difference is huge. Here in Finland, at least in Helsinki region the asphalt is very rough, even in the areas they have recently repaired and look smooth, still they are louder. With the noise levels I got in Norway I would probably not even...

Parkind is also a concern for me. I have been thinking on how to put a teslogic capable phone in this kind of mount.

It is an odd situation. At first I was sure the BMW was 100% at fault, but then after understanding you were parked put yourself on the BMW driver position, he is "traking" the 2 cars that crossed just before you and were puting you in an blind spot. His mistake was to do it too fast without...

I did similar few weeks ago. One thing I recommend is to put a felt tape all along the edges of the plastic panel. On mine the rattle was coming from there on the lower part of the panel. Some pictures.

In general the sound proofing of model 3 and model Y is quite poor. We benefit from the electrical motor silence which make other noise more preeminent. But is not only that, they are louder than lets say a Audi, Mercedes or Lexus. I have spend lots of time and money trying to reduce cabin noise...

There are planty of non FSD users on 2023.12.10, but they have slowed down. Usually when it is like this is a "limited" update followed by another one who is going brother. https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/version/2023.12.10/statistics I am on 2023.12.9 and probably the next on I...

I think actually the all weather make lots of sense here. The season are more or less like A- 40% winter B- 30% mild summer C- 30% should I have already changed tires or not? Around March-April and September-October the predominant topic on coffee breaks are "have you already changed tires...

Yes I am not arguing on that. I think he has a poor understanding (or just neglect for the video entertainment) on what is required to legally drive. He probably kept things that are common check list on inspection like seat belt, break light etc... But obviously that doesn't apply to a heavily...

I have the Michelin PS 4S and really dislike how loud it is. Will try the Pirelli All season plus elect next. The all season also make sense for me to give more flexibility in the shoulder season before changing to winter tires.

This guy took everything out of his model 3 and it remained operating. What comes to my mind is if the HV system and drivetrain are working you don't need necessarily to have everything else fixed to have a functional Tesla. Of course you might want, but it can be done one by one with time...

I have Teslogic and most of the time I use tesla navigation but with waze running on the background on the phone so it will give sound alert via bluetooth. If I want to see waze map for some reason I use siri voice command to ask to bring Waze on the screen instead of the teslogic. Tesla...

Regen is limited only for few minutes while the battery warms up. Usually not more than 3-5min. Winter tires here are mandatory. Yes it works similar to ABS. When it detects slide it correct very quick. But black ICE in a curve is no joke, it can take you by surprise and when you realize it is...

Traction control works very well in the ice, no complains about that. In fact model 3 is a beast in the winter conditions, except for ground clearance it is better than any other car I've driven in winter. But black ice can be tricky. Traction control does its job testing the limits of traction...

I think we are going to see a park assist improvement only when tesla decide to update Enhanced Autopilot to actually make autopark and smart summon work. They might be working on it otherwise there would be never a robotaxi because those require to park and that will need a real parking capable...

Yes I agree with that. The way tesla implemented regen is the most efficient because it adjust the breaking distance to the most efficient regen and not the compromising the regen based on the breaking distance. And at the same educate drivers. Porsche approach with break pedal regen can in...

Park assist not available, saying stop even if there is planty of space to manouver or in grass or snow being all over the place with no clue what is a obstacle and what it is not.

It is not completely trash that it is wrong every time, sometimes it does correct. But by the time I am close enough to something that I could benefit from park assist it has already freaked out. There is no practical use the way it is.

Still useless... Everyone was saying "this is just first attempt, will improve over time". Where is the improvement? I think this is very low priority for them. But elon said few days ago that it will be better than USS.

I had the same feel when test drive it, but give it a try for feel days and you won't want to put it in low regen

Summary of sound measurements .No Sound Treatment .Nokian friction winter tires, -67db±2 .Sound Treatment on Trunk well, trunk bed, rear wheel arch and back seat side panels .Nokian friction winter tires, -65±2db .Sound Treatment on Trunk well, trunk bed, rear wheel arch and back seat side...

Front wheel well done The liner I wanted to isolate the liner as much as possible knowing that it would be a pain to mount it back. I first put it all around and then start removing here and there to make putting all the clips back. That was quite time consuming. Wheel arch As a last...

Just happens that I had one hanging on my rear door. This is the original one from tesla mud flap.

Some places have roads that are closed during winter

I think the coarse asphalt is same here in finland. A friend told that in norway it is much better, I will be there in july going all the way from north to south so I can check.

As a second car a small BEV like the e-208 make a lot of sense. It would be a good car for really majority of my drive. The thing that keeps Tesla unreplaceable for me is to be more reliable on occasions that are less then 1% of my total drive.

It depends a lot on the kind of trip, when it is a simple A-B with few chargers in between it is easy and I have done few times without warring. But in this Norway trip for example there are few places that I need 60% of battery in the morning to reach next charger and there are so many...

Yes I feel the pain. I am planning a 2w trip in Norway and have tried ABRP. I end up doing a plan for each day with accommodations in the ends and some points in between. Every time I need to do a modification I have to edit the existing one, save as new and delete the old one. It is not...

In that case would be roughly 16 for tesla and 18 for polestar. Rough estimate from the graph.

Tesla on page 57, 37 ton CO2e per vehicle Polestar on page 29, 45 ton CO2e per vehicle I think this is reasonably similar since they have taken different energy source for the estimation.

Question, if I buy one of those can I download and run teslogic app there? Would be nice to have a screen permanently integrated.

Thanks for sharing! During summer I am planning a road trip in Norway starting from northen Finland and going all the way to Oslo. Around 4.000 km and for sure will use Autopilot as much as possible. Cannot wait to see the Norigian landscape I might need to use few non tesla chargers, any...

Did a measurement today morning. Nokian friction winter tires, 65±2db Michelin Pilot Sport 4 235/45 ZR 18 T1, 69±2db The difference is really significant. More then what I have accomplished with all the sound proofing. Note also that the profile shifted a bit to the right so the main...

The one with spikes yes they are noise as hell, but the friction tires with softer rubber is less noisy then summer. It should be, this is the one that came from the factory.

Winter tires I was using Nokian, the much noisier summer is a Micheli Pilot Sport 4 235/45. Both 18". I was awere that winter tires are quieter, but wasn't expecting that much.

I got delivery of my model 3 during winter and left tesla SC already with winter tires. Now temperature is rising and I put summer tires on. I am speechless, I was driving on wonderland and didn't known. Now the sound is so much louder and harsh. Even on very low speeds I hear the tire noise...

Have you seen this JJ Central video collection? It is not step by step but he shows many so it could help on some of those you are heving.

Yeah this is a good and informative video. I was having rattling on the seat belt tensioner and tried to apply his fix based on his instructions. But noise on mine was not coming from same place as his, with a bit of pressing and taping here and there, listening how the plastic interacting I was...

I didn't find anywhere how to take apart the front carpet, don't know how difficult or time consume it is.

Here is a scheme of which material I used where.

... Continuation. Today I finished the trunk. For the description I will use the same layer number I used on previews post. Subwoofer compartment with Layer 1 Subwoofer compartment with layer 1+2 Subwoofer compartment with layer 1+2+4. In the end I had to remove a bit of the ceramic fiber...

Yeah lots of bugs, how could this have not been spotted in the wild. I don't mind the bumper and the wheels. But I didn't like the head lights, it gives me the feeling of being cheaper. But who knows, maybe with time it could grow on me. Also I am a bit concerned that those don't look like a...

Start the installation today but I have grossly underestimated the time needed. Could not finished, still will need 2 or 3 more hours. But I will do a summary now of what I learned about this sound proofing methods and the material I am using. I am using four different materials. Material...

This outer portion of the wheel arch is probably one of the problems and very hard to get access to, it is an empty area and just below the rear triangle that you mentioned. I've received now all the material, tomorrow I will see what I can do in that area also. But because the difficult access...

So good do you could retrieve it! Please send it to "wham bam teslacam" YT channel :)

Here we call it spot price contract. Even when you consider the spikes it is usually the cheaper because when energy companies offer a fixed price contract they want it to be low risk for them so the price is usually above the avarage price. I park my car on a garage that have 80 spots for my...

Yes ceramic fiber I got from Amazon DE. I have now ordered some materials from this brand STP to do a complete trunk sound treatment. They have a good range of different materials, I took the ressonance dumper, a insulation foam and the heavy layer to put on the top...
