    First Time EV Buyer (Help...)

    Give EV a shot! i’m 1 year in on my first EV and so far so good. Vehicle maintenance of EVs is minimal (wipers, tires, windshield washer fluid, cabin air filter). No oil changes, no oil filters, no spark plugs, no transmission fluid, no brake fluid, no belts, brake pads will last a very long...

    Tesla Charging Adaptor (SAE J1772)

    i had the same problem after charging at work. it took me about 15 minutes to get the adapter off because it melted/warped. several other Teslas at work experienced the same issue - all linked to the same charger. i’ll order a new adapter at some point but i’ve decided to only charge at home...

    Scroll wheel scans all radio stations since new update

    I had the same issue after the update but it seemed to be working properly again as of yesterday -- not sure what changed for it to start working again.

    Getting ready to buy my first Tesla... What to know...

    I replaced my C7 corvette with a Model 3 Performance ...and I'm still happy. my Tesla is quicker in a straight line but doesn't handle nearly as good as my C7 Grand Sport. The Tesla also doesn't have the same coolness factor as the C7, in my opinion. Aside from handling and a lower coolness...

    doors not unlock as I walking up to the car

    I've noticed a couple of things that prevent the doors from unlocking when i pull the door handle. (1) as you describe - phone is in back pocket (2) I sometimes have to just open my Tesla app. I don't need to push 'unlock' in the app i just need to open the app and then try the door again -...

    Charger Install Help

    I agree with this. I used a standard outlet that added about 4,5mi/hr for a few weeks. Just recently i installed a 6-20 outlet on an existing 240v/20amp circuit and it's charging at ~ 15miles/hr ....plenty for my needs. cost me $30 for outlet and $35 for Tesla adapter for the mobile charger.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    You can upload any policy of yours showing a vehicle, any vehicle, insured. This is what I did based on Tesla’s advice.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    No, it won't impact the delivery date. I brought a cashier's check to my car pickup - no impact to date. the app status remained with "make final payment" until then.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    That was my experience this week. Just show proof of policy. In my case the policy was for a different car. In fact I didn’t have to show them anything in person, just needed to upload a valid policy (any car) to the app

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    for those who recently picked up your M3Ps. Did Tesla report your name and taxpayer identification number to the IRS as required by the IRS per the screenshot below?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I feel for those waiting for the VIN and delivery date. I was super anxious as well. I ordered mine on the 13th and at some point the estimated delivery date was 1/16 - 1/27, then a few days later they pushed out the end of the range to 2/3. I woke up yesterday , 1/24 @ 07:00, to a text that...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    maybe a silly question but curious if updates such as VIN assignment & notification of delivery date could happen any day, 24/7 or if only during weekdays/work hours?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Related question. yeah, that’s a good point. The vette being a rear wheel drive high hp car with 335 summer only tires did not ever see snow or ice, only very cold temps and road surfaces. The lack of grip was very noticeable but was manageable with the right foot. For me, I’ll drive with...

    100%. I drove my corvette all winter with summer only tires, no problems. Yeah , there’s less traction but you still have to put your foot in it to get it sideways.

    Hi all. I have a white M3P on order as of 1/13. I think I refresh the Tesla app every 10 minutes hoping to see a delivery date or vin….anything! 😀 so anxious. Moving from a 17’ corvette grand sport.
