    DiY HomeLink Install using in car Service Mode - No need for Tesla Service or ToolBox

    Did this retrofit on my 2023 Model 3 today, easy peasy. I ended up vhb'ing the HL unit to the crash bar, no bracket/weird bolt needed (vhb is used to hold skyscraper windows in so I trust it, lol). Referred to photo on Roborat's post #19. Rheckbert3's posts #102 & 103 were super helpful, as...

    Anybody come from a sports car to Tesla?

    TL;DR - sports car/road racing enthusiast here, very pleased with M3 as a daily, great driving dynamics...but always best to have the right car for the particular job. You want a true sports car, yeah, ICE Porsche all day. You live on a dirt/mud road (like I do), base Model 3 & yeah, it's real...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I absolutely agree that the driving dynamics are actually the best of all the cars in the lineup, due to less weight up front & being the lightest. Yes, the P is a ton of fun but you put the same upgraded suspension, wheels/tires, & brakes on a RWD & it'll outhandle the P. I prefer cornering...

    MyQ shows garages but not gates?

    What's so bizarre about this (MyQ not "supporting" gates) is the remote signal for a gate should be the same thing as a garage door. If the MyQ "learns" remotes via mimicking the signal, a gate remote should be learnable for MyQ. We're installing a Ghost Controls gate opener and hoping for the...

    New Model 3 wanna be owner - need tips before ordering

    It seems all of the automakers are approximately 10 years behind Tesla. This is from someone very deeply involved at the highest levels of EV production of a major manufacturer. The biggest hurdle is the software, all of it (systems, interface, etc). The other big brands can't get that right...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Had a totally great delivery experience of my M3 RWD grey/black/18" at Fremont on 12/28 (ordered 12/19). Had no human interaction and didn't want/need any. Had my brother along, who has had 3 Teslas (all deliveries @ Fremont) & joined countless friends' Tesla (& many other new vehicles)...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    TL;DR - I know this is a thread about delivery issues but I wanted to add a positive, issue-free post about my excellent end of Q4 delivery experience at Fremont. I took delivery of my M3 RWD grey/black/18" on Wed, 12/28/22 at the Fremont factory delivery center. I ordered it on 12/19 & there...

    DiY HomeLink Install using in car Service Mode - No need for Tesla Service or ToolBox

    Great thread, thx all! New M3 owner and avid diy-er, plus hubby worked at Tesla Fremont for a few years in production (& is a mechanic), so loving all of the diy hacking going on! Has anyone had success with the Homelink module 1114984-00-B working with a Ghost Controls automatic gate opener...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Picked up my M3 RWD grey/black/18" today (12/28) at Fremont, which I ordered 12/19/22. To whomever asked, no, they don't remove the destination fee of $1200 if you pick up at the factory. The experience was excellent, seamless, and how every car purchase should be. It literally took about 20...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I don't think they fix issues on the spot in Fremont, & probably especially not now with the EOY rush. The delivery experience there now is "your car is in stall 71, good luck, bye," with little to no human interaction (so I'm guessing it's even less interactive than Vallejo). While this will be...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Same, got my VIN tonight (7pm PT), grey/black/18" ordered 12/19. The RWD's must just be hot off the line (: Estimated delivery (at Fremont, so not really more of a delivery than being driven around the facility, lol) 12/29-12/31. Congrats!

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    You may want to reach out to a sales advisor at your local Tesla sales center and they can keep an eye on the inventory for you. There hasn't been a Model 3 RWD that has hit existing inventory basically since the $7500 incentive was announced on 12/21, that I know of. So yeah, it's pretty late...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Ok, that's some hope I'll hang on to (: SA I spoke to said if we don't get the car delivered by 12/31, our order still stands & our $250 still holds but the $7500 on the hood won't happen & he was not expecting the 10k supercharger miles to be in play. We'll be subject to applying for the...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Still seeing the estimated delivery is today (12/25) to 12/31 for my gray/black/18" config ordered 12/19. Now tesla.com has changed estimated delivery for any M3 one orders to January 2023 so I'm still optimistic and very hopeful they'll get our orders delivered by 12/31. Would love it if...

    Ah, so you got an inventory car, gotcha. I was hopeful you were gonna say it was one you ordered. Congrats, tho!

    It's just updating each day to say whatever that day is to Dec 31, so today's estimated delivery says Dec 23-Dec 31.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I ordered M3 RWD Monday, 12/19 (midnight silver, 18" Aeros) and still do not have a VIN assigned (11am PT 12/23). Hoping for delivery by 12/31 and Fremont (and every other SA I've talked to) has assured me they're at full production but unfortunately, their system isn't able or willing to give...
