    Creaking noise (control arm again!)

    This literally started happening to my 2018 LR M3 RWD with ~71K mi. this past Thursday. It became embarrassingly loud within a mere 3 mile drive. Yikes. My awesome EV sounded like an old rust bucket. I immediately came on this forum to research it, as well as YouTube. It seemed the upper control...

    Cybertruck in Nature

    Thank you for sharing your lovely photos. Hope you don't mind, I took the liberty of brightening it up a little and cropping it a tiny bit. :)

    Rear Axle Click: Ultimate DIY Fix

    After doing the brake burnishing procedure through service mode on my Model 3, I started hearing a metallic clicking sound coming from the rear driver's side wheel from time to time. At first I thought it was the brakes. After months of researching, I started thinking it was an "axle click."...

    Tesla Model 3 (2020) DIY headlight replacement write-up

    Thanks for posting this. I had been trying to replace my headlight for about six months. My '18 M3 driver's side accent light went out, and it really bothered me. Didn't want to pay Tesla over $1,300.00(USD). :/ Sooo I bought a used one on eBay for about $85(USD) +tax with free shipping. The...

    Vacation - Leave Plugged In Or Not ?

    Just got back from a 9 day vacation. Left my 2018 M3 LR RWD unplugged in a garage in SoCal with 75% and came back to 72%. I only checked on it twice throughout my vacation, closing the app immediately afterwards. Was NOT in Sentry Mode. Totally forgot to turn off Cabin Overheat Protection, but I...

    Accent Headlight

    Didn't want to add to this thread, alas, here I am. :( My Feb. 2018 Model 3's driver side DRL accent light (eyebrow, signature light) is OUT. I now have a "winking" Model 3. Sad day. I think it happened recently. In any case, I am considering getting a used headlight on eBay, but what if it...

    Sentry Mode not Recording

    Did you solve your Sentry Mode not recording issue? Unfortunately my method only worked for a short while. :( I ended up getting the Tesla 128GB USB stick, and even that didn't work! Dashcam records just fine on the Tesla stick though. Anyone else know a workaround? I've tried using the...

    To DIY or not to DIY? Front Camera Replacement: Fisheye and Narrow Cam Dropped Frames

    UPDATE: I FU@KING LOVE DIY It seems that I have successfully solved the issue. This past weekend in SoCal was a bit warm and my previous cameras would have failed under such conditions. When looking for used cameras on eBay, I favorited one for $65 and the seller sent me an offer for $40 with...

    To DIY or not to DIY? Front Camera Replacement: Fisheye and Narrow Cam Dropped Frames

    Although there is one adjustment point (maybe for angle?) on the cameras, I left it alone. Pretty sure I got an older Model 3 camera, before they made the Model Y. It's possible my camera was set to factory settings for a Model 3 and thus did not require realignment. The MY uses the same cameras...

    To DIY or not to DIY? Front Camera Replacement: Fisheye and Narrow Cam Dropped Frames

    UPDATE - I successfully replaced the camera with a used one I got on eBay for $44.00!! The whole job was relatively easy, except for unplugging the camera itself. I broke one half of the two clips on the connectors, but the replacement camera still clipped in fine and everything is working, for...

    To DIY or not to DIY? Front Camera Replacement: Fisheye and Narrow Cam Dropped Frames

    I have a 2018 Model 3 Long Range RWD with Enhanced Autopilot, and I often get the UI_a114 "Driving Visualization Temporarily Degraded" error whenever I leave my car out in the sun for longer than 20 minutes and ambient temperatures exceed 75 degrees F. This error disables the ENTIRE DAS (Driver...

    Wet orange look replacement roof glass

    My early 2018 LR RWD M3 has this on the top glass (sunroof section). I want to tint it, but I'm scared the orange effect will "disappear." Do you know if tinting will affect the beautiful copper/crimson hues? I feel like the 5% ceramic tint I'm considering getting might affect the way light is...

    Tesla X Sentry / Dashcam USB drives failing issues

    Which year and model did you use these on? I just purchased that same exact Micro SD card, but I drive a 2018 Model 3, which I believe has USB 2.0 inputs, and not USB 3.0. Will a USB 3.0 adapter be okay to use? If not, I may need to find a USB 2.0 adapter for my "old" Tesla. Need to figure this...

    Out of curiosity, why would you offer $5 more than the lowered asking price? 🤔

    Sentry Mode not Recording

    I just got my first Tesla, a 2018 Model 3 Long Range RWD and couldn't get Sentry Mode to record. This fixed the issue! Thank you so much for posting this. :) My 1TB SSD had already been formatted through the car, but I did it again using my Mac. I simply created the folder TeslaCam and it worked!
