    New supercharging process requiring payment method

    Old post, I know. But I thought I'd share my(frustration) experience with the message- add payment method. We'll, I got my new credit card and forgot to update the cc info in the Tesla app. Sure thing- got the message on the screen to update payment method. So I did that and the message did not...

    What have you done to your Y lately?

    Bought one drink/phone holder combo, one super size drink holder. Getting the Y for a roadtrip from So Cal to Oregon. I bought an airbed for our stopovers during the long travel. Installed the old Yakima skybox to ensure I can open the tailgate to the height I need. Lastly, purchased a dashboard...

    Small nail near tire wall, tiny bubbles. What can be done?

    Any small leak is concerning. Go to another tire shop and have it checked out for peace of mind. Good luck! Weird that I had same screw when I had a flat tire. I wonder if it was from the factory.

    What have you done to your Y lately?

    Been watching offerup deals on a better bike rack. After a few weeks, I found one almost new! The guy has other toys (jetskis, atv, boat, etc) and did not have the time to ride his bikes. The rack was just collecting dust. I was able to lower his price to $350 for a Thule T2 Pro XTR. The wheels...

    What have you done to your Y lately?

    I might go old school with Lebra/ Covercraft if it ever becomes available. It will be nice to have during road trips.

    What have you done to your Y lately?

    The spending never stops... Started with a home charger. Next was replacing the hub caps, then purchasing center console organizer and protector pad. After that, a jack pad set, a spare tire and jack kit, a locking anti-rattle hitch pin, a set of all weather floor mats and a no drill front...

    The Floor Mat Decision - If It Helps Others

    Yup, mine took 20 business days to arrive. Packaging was great. None of the mats were bent and so I was able to install them tonight. 100% fit for MYLR7. I am impressed! No smell either. 😉

    The Floor Mat Decision - If It Helps Others

    I ordered mine Feb 5. Taptes still could not provide a tracking #. The only consolation now is that $50 coupon for the looooong wait. Maybe they ordered it thru Alibaba. LOL. That $230 I paid for the 7 seat mats ain't gonna earn close to that savings on interest. I am just hoping mats will fit...

    compact spare tire?

    Lol. Dang nice tools! All I have is old Craftsman,HF and HD stuff. Yes, it was a chore to turn it and I am skipping the gym and will need Tylenol tonight. Oh yeah, definitely will drag that heavy 33lb jack with me during road trips. Yup, and the 12v impact wrench, too, and torque wrench, and...

    compact spare tire?

    Addl pics to compare width of OE vs this semi-donut on steroid spare tire. I installed it before I saw your post, sorry. I think it's almost the same size as modernspare. This one is 155/85/r18 whereas MS is 145/85/r18. So definitely won't fit those locations flat. But the rear bottom cargo...

    Autel 50 amp MaxiCharge for Tesla Y

    Good point on the possible connector wear and tear. I just leave the adaptor connected. I ordered a second just to keep in the Y in case I need it during travels.

    The Floor Mat Decision - If It Helps Others

    How long did it take for delivery? I ordered mine (LR7),3 row mats, frunk, rear bottom cargo, directly from Taptes website due to $50 discount compared thru their Amazon store. After placing the order, it says ETA 13-19 working days. I contacted Taptes CS and they told me that I should be...

    compact spare tire?

    I ordered from ebay and got it in 2 days. Yes, it's same vendor in Amazon(cheaper by $15 fyi). I will be busy with my home project, but would try to put this on/test by Sunday weather permits.

    Should the MYLR be charged to 50% only?

    +1. Charge, drive, grin.Repeat. By the time my warranty expires, we are probably ready to trade it in for a newer model.

    What does (will) your personalized plate say?

    Well, had this old plate from my bro-in-law vendor shows way back early 2000. Been in my garage wall since then. Maybe it's meant for us to buy a piece of Elon. Our first part of Tesla. Lol. But really, have you seen the news about the guy who is selling his vanity plate CASH for $2m? Hahaha..I...

    Need help on a question on fitting 2 bikes in the Model Y

    Will it be an issue using a supercharger station while the hitch bike rack mounted? Mine sticks out approx 34" from the rear bumper. So far I've only used SC twice and never paid attention to the rear clearance. I hope the charging cable is long enough. Otherwise it would be a pita to dismount...

    Need help on a question on fitting 2 bikes in the Model Y

    It's simple with bike racks. Most especially if the bike rack is very light. If the rack is heavy, then you might need assistance. Tops, depending on the setup, you would be done in less than 15 minutes with 2 bikes. Another 15 mins to unhook the bikes, the bike rack. Check out youtube....

    That's a good💡. Do you have the link for the LED strip? I might also install a rear license plate holder.

    Need help on a question on fitting 2 bikes in the Model Y

    That's why I bought the optional tow hitch pkg. A short guy like me will have difficulty putting our 2 ebikes inside the Y if it even fit. I have yet to haul our bikes with the Y. Most of the times, I put the large ebike batteries inside the vehicle.I usually use a lighter weight lock cable when...

    Streaming while driving

    So far so good with my Samsung U22. I have been messing with this mirror app for 3 days now and I like that I can just use the Ys screen. The downside- gotta clean the screen more frequently. Ha! Also, I think for my needs, it will suit better on our longer drives.

    How many of you removed your Hubcaps?

    +1. I replaced mine within a week after we picked up the Y.

    How many of you removed your Hubcaps?

    Hahaha. Oh yeah, it's really close tho. I think I like the finish on yours better. Mine is glossy.

    How many of you removed your Hubcaps?

    My bad. It was $69.99. Lol. Still was a great buy. Looks like the price went up tho.
  42. J

    How many of you removed your Hubcaps?

    Yes! I could not believe it, too. Another good thing- free shipping in 3 days! The vendor said he was only selling a number of units "on sale". I figured, I am protected buying via eBay and using PayPal. So I took the risk. 3 days later, the set came in!
  43. J

    How many of you removed your Hubcaps?

    Scored these online for $65 for 4, free shipping. I have to ask the vendor if the $ was a misprint. It was a breeze to snap onto the wheels,but a pita to take em off!

    compact spare tire?

    Don't feel bad. I had a flat tire at 816 miles. Good thing I was home and close to a big box tire store. A plus for owning a 3ton low profile floor jack. I am also glad I already have those jack pucks. I took the wheel-tire to the shop and got it fixed for free. I ended up purchasing tire...
