    Oh hey! No, I haven’t gotten it done yet. One Tesla certified body shop wrote a quote at $3k!

    Headliner glue

    Is this "within spec" for a headliner? passenger rear side headliner is nice, only maybe 3mm gap, but the left side drivers rear side is about 8-12mm and shows this black adhesive. I was going to cut off the adhesive with a blade.

    First Tow of the Boat!

    One of the reasons I switched from a Vanagon Westfalia is to have only one electric clean vehicle and tow my Cricket camper! Great job, let's clean up this planet together!

    Rear quarter panel damage on a Model Y, looking for advice

    Yeah, that’s what I’m thinking too. Gonna try to just pull out the panel steel and reattach bumper. As of now, the bumper won’t clip in and one white dart looking plastic part fell out and into the bumper.

    Rear quarter panel damage on a Model Y, looking for advice

    Are you sure you can even reach that panel? Its not a singe layer panel, it has two skins, one external and one internal with ribs in between.

    Rear quarter panel damage on a Model Y, looking for advice

    That is what we were thinking too, but it seems the angle is different than the other side, how could I measure that? Hmm. Also, look at where the panel meets the taillight, doesnt line up, possible the light got moved some too.

    Rear quarter panel damage on a Model Y, looking for advice

    I did talk to a great PDR guy here in Portland and he said no, take it to a collision shop. :-( Maybe I'll call another one.

    Rear quarter panel damage on a Model Y, looking for advice

    Hi, so I just bought this 2021 Model Y with only 10k miles on it. I am trying to repair this tiny bit of damage, but the shops all want $3,000 or more to fix it. It was done by the previous owner, so I can't run it through Tesla insurance. Does anyone know if there's a way to pull out this rear...

    Liftgate adjustment DIY info on 2023 refresh

    This right here is amazing advice! I started to adjust the up/down of my liftgate and it was a real pain to get the other directions, since it was still under warranty, I let the SC take care of it, and guess what, even they couldn't get it right with the hinges, they had to REPLACE my hinges...

    Rear Hatch Needed New Hinges!?

    So I just bought my first Tesla, a gently used 2021 Model Y AWD, but I have several issues, rattle in front left dash after going over very bumpy ice laden roads with 20" induction wheels, (I'm switching to 18" Method wheels and 255/55R18 Vredstein tires), loose headliner on rear left side (you...

    Michelin CC2, Vredestien Quatrac Pro, or Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail?

    I found Quadrac Pros (255/55R18) at Discount Tire, you need to call them, they don't even list the brand on their website. They quoted me: $988! I think I found them on amazon or tirerack.com and sent them a price to match. These tires (in Portland OR) are always selling out this time of year...

    Michelin CC2, Vredestien Quatrac Pro, or Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail?

    Did you ever find out the best of these 3 tires to get? I'm stuck deciding between the Falken Wildpeaks and the Vredstein Quadrac Pros! Ugh.

    Falken Wildpeak A/T Trail 235/55r19 on Gemini wheels

    Will this 18x8 wheel and 255/55R18 tire combo work with MYLR?

    Hi Miller, I just ordered the Method 18x8 wheels for my MY AWD, I am really hoping I can run 255/55 R18 tires, looking at the Qudrac Pros, have you have any rubbing or other issues running those taller tires? Thanks so much man!
