    Showroom and Service Center - Fayetteville GA

    This location sucks. Avoid taking delivery or service here. The service managers are condescending and won't even try to diagnose issues. The sales team doesn't do anything to communicate with people either. Zero answers to my questions during the order process.

    Any updates on Tesla insurance offering expansion to Georgia?

    Anyone heard anything yet? Would like to have some alternative to progressive

    A new second-tier EV Tire: "Radar All Season EV"

    Ran the Radar Dimax AS8 on my 2019 LR, they gripped well in the dry but were a bit noisy. Also seemed alright in the wet until I hydroplaned and wrecked. Had pretty deep tread depth, practically new. Have driven in similar conditions in my 2008 528i with Continental DWS tires and have had no...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    Yeah it's unavoidable for some cases where the device does not have controls exposed locally. MyQ appears to be one of those cases, but I have other smart devices like kasa bulbs that can connect to the cloud, but also can be completely controlled locally.

    Why 42 PSI ?

    Pressure = force/area. Since the cross sectional area is relatively constant (although lower pressures result in a larger contact patch), the higher the pressure the more force the tire can withstand without deformation. It's likely that Tesla tuned their suspension spring mass damper system...

    Model 3 Glass Roof with roof rack ***Crack

    I got a crack on my roof from a giant stone smashing the front edge of the glass. The crack started at the edge and went into the glass approx as far as yours. I just used the rainx windshield chip/crack repair kit to prevent the crack from growing and it's worked pretty well. I placed a small...

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    Most of my remaining gusting wind noise is from around the mirror area. Already done the foam in fenders and frunk/sub trunk. Not much from the rear. Will doing the Z-seals fix this? Road noise from my cheapo Radar Dimax As-8 tires isn't too bad surprisingly.

    Axle seal leak

    Yeah that's what I was thinking and was adamant that it seems more serious than they are thinking. Well at least if it fails, they have me on the record showing the problem before the warranty period expires.

    Axle seal leak

    Mine looked similar. Tesla service claimed it was just road grime and cleaned it. Has this happened for anyone else? At least if my axles or drive unit fails, they will have the record of me bringing it in with the concern of leaks. Mine is on the front drive unit.

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    That pattern works for both sides, just gotta flip it. The orientation in the box is just upside down, the curve that's on the bottom left in the picture should be in the top left on the car drivers side and top right on the passenger side. Edit: I just rotated the image and reupload, now it's...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    I did use that for a while but they require you to login to their site every few weeks and "verify" that you are still actively using it which makes it useless for me.

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    Yeah, just mine doesn't work with DuckDns. Duckdns is completely free unlike some other dynamic dns providers.

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    It's probably all relative. Those of us that came from German luxury cars are finding the model 3 to be quite loud for a "luxury" car while those coming from commuter cars are finding it much quieter. My 2019 is definitely much louder at 80mph than my 2008 5 series. The frameless windows likely...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    Yeah it's a tradeoff between managing your infrastructure or paying for a service and having it harvest your data. Though, there isn't much to manage, I never really have to touch my home assistant instance, mostly just have to update my DuckDns IP whenever my ISP is doing maintenance and I get...

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    It might be better suited for voice but atleast we can rely on everyone having similar hardware for their measurements so we can get a relative picture between cars that have modifications and don't. You are correct that a calibrated dB meter will give a better picture on the absolute noise levels.

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    It's likely most of us won't have access to high quality calibrated equipment like this. It might actually be better to use our own smart phones to measure noise and just state what phone was used and to pick some app that's available on both iOS and Android. That way we can get an idea of...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    You can still keep everything connected to WiFi. For cases like myQ they will still need to be connected to the Internet as the Home assistant integration talks with the myQ API to send and receive commands. I run two WiFi routers in my setup, I have my main router which all my computers and...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    That's the big advantage of a home assistant system. You keep full control over your data. You can still integrate devices from other smart home ecosystems into your home assistant setup, but if you want a fully locally controlled system you can integrate zwave/ZigBee switches/lights into your...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    Only complicated if you have no experience with computers. There are plenty of guides and you can install the self contained HAOS on the raspi or spare laptop to handle a lot of the complexity. In my opinion it's worth the complication since all my smart home devices work with home assistant...

    Return HomeLink and Go with MyQ?

    Forget myQ subscriptions. If you have a myQ garage door opener and other smarthome devices like bulbs, do some research and install home assistant on a spare laptop to run a home automation server. You can then link your Tesla and myQ garage door to the home assistant and make it open the garage...

    Ongoing Issues with Spotify Integration in Tesla Infotainment System

    Yeah it's silly that I still cannot sort my playlists and set music streaming quality. If I'm paying for premium connectivity, I want full quality music streaming and the ability to sort my songs in a playlist at minimum.

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    Took some trial and error but followed your method and it worked. I took a scan with polycam of the foam insert that I made, have it in stl, obj and fbx formats here for anyone that wants to make a template: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Xybg2hTRYW590jtDskRp4kW_UtI1VIeJ

    Solved: Road Noise & Front Wind Noise

    I cut mine a bit differently and found it fits really well. Added ruler for scale. The top in the picture goes towards the bottom of the door.

    Get the MyQ adapter, skip the fee

    Been using myQ integrated with my Home assistant server and then linked my Tesla with the home assistant server for location tracking. Works pretty seamlessly and doesn't cost me any money and I keep control over my data and access.
