    FSD free trial is over

    I'm sad... but not $99 a month kinda sad. I didn't even use it much but I liked having it there at the ready. Anyone subscribing or paying the 8K? I have the feeling that it's about to jump back up after the Dojo got fed with all this data.

    Notifications way too loud

    So whenever I get notification chimes coming across from certain apps, like the myQ chimes when the garage door closes, it's loud as hell. I mean so loud I almost yanked the wheel a time or two. The music could be playing at a quiet volume and the notification comes across blasting. I can't...

    Second wheel rotation @ 12K

    Logging this here partly for my records. 3-23-24 Wheel rotated front to rear, rear to front at 12,000 mi. Last time I criss-crossed Tread depth measured in mm. For some reason the formatting gets thrown off when I save, ah well. Front LF...

    App spooling

    Lately when I open the widget it's taking longer to connect. Doesnt matter where the car is, WiFi connected or not. I get this pulsing ghost image for many seconds before it finally connects. Anyone seeing this? It used to be much faster.

    Indicator/turn signal stalk discovery

    So after almost a year of the driving the Y, I discovered something about the turn signal. Problem: Sometimes when I'm just lightly pushing the stalk to do a quick lane change, I guess I'm too heavy handed and it locks into the full flasher position. Well, when I go to flip back off, I flip...

    Climate control sluggish on auto

    Seems to me that when I get into a blazing hot car that's been sitting out in the sun, the climate control takes it's sweet time bringing the coolness. Even with the temp on 69 and the interior in the 90's, the fan stays on medium for what seems to be a long time if you're burning up. When it...

    Model Y jack point measurements

    Anyone know the distance between the model Y jack points, front to rear and side to side? I'm away and can't measure my car right now. Thx

    You baby your car and then 5 minutes with a valet....

    You'd think a valet would know to stay away from the curbs. Sigh....

    Basic autopilot in heavy traffic

    My daily work commute is in typical Atlanta stop-n-go traffic, half of which is on surface streets. I typically turn on AP when sitting in a long line of traffic but the experience is a bit of a let down. Each time the car ahead moves, my Tesla accelerates harder than than necessary only to...

    Tesla engineers tried to convince Elon Musk not to give up radar for self-driving

    Well this article does not leave me brimming with hope for our newer vehicles without USS and radar.... https://electrek.co/2023/03/21/tesla-engineer-convince-elon-musk-not-give-up-radar-self-driving/

    MYLR tire options for Gemini Wheels

    I've only had my MYLR for little over a month, but I keep hearing how these Continentals on the Geminis wear down quicker than a pair of cheap flipflops. I believe it, cause the Contis that I had on my truck lasted only about 30K, whereas the Uniroyals before them lasted like 65K mi. Anyway...

    Folding mirror screwy

    While at home in my garage, I folded the mirrors and saved the location, thinking they would fold whenever I park there going forward. Later I'm backing into my driveway and they fold while I'm moving, before I even get into the garage. What gives?

    Red MYLR - first wash

    Got her first bath today. The pollen is falling HARD here in Atlanta, so I snapped a few before she turned yellow. Roughly a month old and 730 miles on her. The red looks better in person than when I picked it out online, so I'm happy with that. I picked it on a whim thinking if prices go...

    What cars did you quit looking at or cancel once Tesla dropped the price?

    I was looking at those little Ford Maverick hybrid trucks, which would have been waaay cheaper than this MYLR of mine. They run around 25 - 28K and although they have an ICE engine, they have beds too, which would eliminate my current gas guzzling pickup as well as well as my ICE car. They...

    How to access door pillar camera feed?

    This is for the cameras above where you'd scan a key card. There is a location where there is huge blind spot and due to the angle of the car and the way this car is designed, only the pillar camera would be able to view oncoming traffic. If not accessible, is this in the works? Unfortunately...

    Tesla sets charge limit to 90%

    Just took delivery on my MYLR three days ago. Tesla has the charge limit set to 90%. I see many here set it to 80%. I do have a garage with a wall connector installed and set to full 48A charging. Would it be more beneficial for the battery if I dial it back to 80%? Daily work commute is...

    Delivery coming up

    I'm scheduled for delivery of a MYLR next week. It was built in the Fremont factory. Any big gotchas I have to watch out for that are specific to that factory? Also, I saw a few really long checklists. Do we have any up to date checklists that might cover any recent issues? I'm told they...

    Wall connector, or J1772 Wall Connector?

    Greetings, all. My first post in an EV forum, ever. All I know is ICE. I've decided to step out of the stone age and go full electric, so I placed a MYLR order a few weeks back when the price dropped. While ordering, Tesla solicited the wall connector and I opted for it... cause I need to...
