I accidentally closed the garage with the liftgate up and there are some small chips in the paint. Not huge, but in a very visible area and hard to ignore now. Also don’t want the chipped area to expand. 2023 blue Model Y. Each chilled area is about 1 cm long. I was able to wipe the chipped...

I took delivery of 2023 MY in late December, so no ultrasound. My car doesn't show distance to objects when trying to park, but I found some articles in late 2022 that distance measurements for parking on vehicles with cameras is either here or coming. Did that ever materialize? How do I see it?

Youtube has a lot of DIY stuff for new cars. Is this not stuff the SC will do for free?

I heard more rattling in my new MY since I installed a child seat in 2nd row. I thought it came from the back, but now it seems to be more pronounced somewhere in the passenger seat area. I read the seat belt housing is a common source. What simple things can I do to localize the source for now...

What's considered "short run"? Home Depot has a 12 gauge one that's 2 ft, but several 14 gauge that are 6 ft.

Has anybody actually used something like this? I think in theory it seems OK

My work parking lot has a lot of plugs right next to the parking spots, but the outlets are in weather-proof boxes since they're all outside. The mobile charger can't plug in due to the design angle of the plug and the depth of the box. Can I safely charge by connecting the mobile adapter plug...

Can someone confirm this? If this is the case, NEM 2.0 seems plausible, but if everything has to be done by 4/15, looks like I can only get 3.0. That would be a huge factor in my decision-making. Thanks everyone for great advice!

Regarding NEM 2.0 vs 3.0– my main house has leased solar panels installed in 2013 by the previous owner. It was Solar City but taken over Tesla. They only produce max ~25 kWh on the sunniest days. During my consultation, the rep made it wound like any new installation over the ADU/garage would...

I have 2 electricity panels but SCE’s bill doesn’t differentiate, so I think there’s just 1 meter. Are you saying the Powerwall (or other battery) should be able to supply bkth main house and ADU with this setup?

I have 2 little kids in child seats and want to be able to see them. The rearview mirror is small, probably in part due to the reliance on cameras. I know there’s the cabin camera, but I don’t believe we have access to that. Is there a way to get that view on-screen while driving? Or a good 3rd...

I just had my virtual meeting with a Tesla Solar rep to go over things. My house has a guesthouse/ADU where my sick father-in-law and his wife who takes care of him, stay. He requires continuous oxygen and a lot of other medical equipment (and A/C) that use A LOT of electricity. We have SoCal...

I swapped out my Gemini wheels for Inductions and am selling my Gemini wheels now. Car was picked up 12/30/22 and have exactly 505 miles (mostly highway) on them. No damage at all. TPMS sensors included. Asking $1350, local pickup only in San Gabriel Valley of Los Angeles area.

I picked up my MYLR on 12/30 and for the $7500 off plus 10K supercharger miles. I looked up the same arrangement today and it is about $4500 cheaper than I paid. The 10k miles is worth probably $1000 or less to me since so probably won’t use all of them in 2 years. So I paid about $3500 more...

I have a child seat for my 4 year old in the white back seat. It fits really well. However, the seat is pretty high so my kid has to climb into the seat by stepping on the small part of the seat that sticks out past the car seat. I don’t want a whole seat cover, just some ideas of what can be...

Is the jump from 255 to 275 or even 265 enough to prevent curb rash?

I just noticed that the long lever is the door handle can be pushed in a little; like a millimeter. When I pull out the long handle, I can see a small button underneath. Pushing in the handle pushes this button. What is this button for? I can’t find an answer online

How necessary is preconditioning in warmer weather? I'm on SoCal, where the coldest winter nights go down to about 40 deg. I keep the car garaged, so probably a few degrees warmer than that, at the lowest. That's for a couple months of the year, otherwise rarely goes below high 40s-50s. I don't...

I have to park pretty close to the front wall in my garage. When I pull into the garage. Am I able to switch to a view to see exactly how close I am?

Does the charge plug not need to be returned to the holster when not in use?

I picked up MYLR one week ago. No rattles after 400+ miles… until I installed a child seat in the rear seat (2nd row). It’s clear the sound is coming from that area but I can’t localize it. I unbuckled the seat belt from the car seat to loosen it and the rattling improved but didn’t go away...

I’m interested. What part of CA? I don’t have PM provileges right now, and you probably don’t either

I specifically didn’t want the larger wheels due to fear of a rough ride, But agree the 20” look MUCH better

It’s $10/mo? Are you not able to use iPhone and apple carplay?

I would be fine with anything under 30-40 miles for a “new” car

Also, the thing I was wondering was if my car would be available sooner if I had selected to pick up the car at a center rather than have it delivered to my address

I checked local (and not-so-local) inventory on Thursday, lots of MY available but none with 7 seats. So it might be worth calling service center? My app says “location” is the Burbank delivery center. I can call them. My plan was to call Tesla customer service, but I figured I wouldn’t get...

I ordered my MY 7 seater in early-mid October. At the time, the estimated delivery date said Dec-Mar, but after about a week, it changed to “Dec 2022”, and has stuck with that estimated delivery date ever since. Is there anything at all I can do to expedite delivery at this point? I won’t...
