Just the rubber. I'll look at wheels in the Spring. But IDK. A $1000+ for wheels and $350 for TPMS can pay for a lot of tire changes at the local garage.

I just ordered some Michelin X Ice and Snow from Black Cirlcles dot ca for a pretty good price (~$1400CDN shipped). They currently have a 15% off code familyxicesnow and free shipping. IDK how they stack up to the Pirellis but they are a very well rated winter tire. And that was my exact...

Strange. I very rarely have to switch wifi back on. Interested in what other folks have to offer. (double check that 'remain connected in drive' is still selected for your hotspot and your home wifi)

In the name of science I timed the time it takes for it to connect when I left work today after the car was parked and charging for ~5 hours. 75 seconds from the time I sat in the car until it connected! Then I picked up my son from camp so I was away from the car for about 5 minutes. 25 seconds...

IDK. I generally don't have my car charging at home. (Free charging at work) My Y is connected to wifi at home. When I get in the car in the morning, it's connected to the home wifi. I'm sure it sleeps overnight? Is the hotspot starting on your phone when it connects to the cars bluetooth...

Huh, could be. I'll also note that when I leave my house in the morning, I will manually change from my home wifi to my hotspots - which is running because of the automation, because I have poor LTE signal quality when I leave my house for the first kilometre or so which will sometimes confuse...

You're welcome. Like I said, it works pretty well for me if I let it connect before I put the car in Drive. And sometimes it will require inputting the password for the hotspot again (could be an iPhone security feature?). I keep meaning to change my hotspot password to something I'll remember...

Thanks. Can you tell I work QA and customer support for a software company? IIRC if you simply enable the hotspot when the phone connects to the cars bluetooth, it will prompt you on the phone if you want to connect to this device. Doing it through Focus and enabling the automatic connect rule...

No times are set for these automations. On your iPhone: First, go to Settings -> Focus -> Driving, scroll down and Under TURN ON AUTOMATICALLY enable Activate when connect to Car Bluetooth. This will set you the Focus on your phone to Driving when it connects to your Tesla via BT. Then in...

It's certainly part of the issue. The hotspots on the phone won't start automatically, for security reasons I suppose. But using these two automations will allow it all to happen automagically. It's not perfect, sometimes the car has trouble connecting, and for some reason will lose the password...

I forgot to mention I have a couple of automations setup in Shortcuts on my phone as well. 1. Set Focus to Driving when phone connects to car bluetooth. 2. When Focus is set to Driving, enable the phone hotspot.

It will connect. I find I have to give it ~1 minute to connect before I put the car in Drive. You just need some patience. If I jump in the car and put it in drive it will turn off wi-fi in the car if there is no connection. I use an iPhone 13 for my hotspots connection.

Do you have any outstanding software updates? What year is your vehicle? When did you get it?

I'm guessing you can't simply get Tuxmats from Costco in the US?

I have Phantom mats sold by Costco Canada. They're rebranded Tuxmats and they have excellent coverage, and easy to keep clean.

Did you scroll to the bottom of that settings page? Off road and slip start is found there too.

Lately I've been having good luck with my connection. If I wait for the wifi to connect before I put the car in the drive, 30s to a minute, then it will work without issue. IDK if the issue is that the car is slow to connect or if the phone is slow to enable the hotspot. BTW I have 2...

A guy on reddit used Saran Wrap (cling film) across the front of his car when he did a long road trip. I don't know if prevented any rock chips but all the bugs came off easily.

I read that if you wait a moment before shifting into Drive, you will have more success with it maintaining the wifi connection. Or at least I've found that wifi will remain on and I can connect manually to the hotspot if I need to. If I jump in the car and quickly shift into Drive, wifi will...

You're totally right. It doesn't fold to fit in the trunk and it comes as a double with the option of adding a third rail. It does all the other good stuff though, plus the integrated lock.

Ever so slightly off topic, I have the Rockymounts Guiderail and it's much like the 1UP. It's a nice fit on my Y and secures the bikes very well. The integrated chain lock is pretty useful too. No affiliation but it was available to order for me in Canada for those looking for this style of...

$14 a month here in Canada. I don't see an option for annual payment otherwise I'd likely go that route. My sub expired a couple of weeks ago so I wanted to see how it would behave with a hotspot. Not great thus far.

I have similar connection issues with my 2023 MY. I have an automation on my iPhone to enable my hotspot when driving focus is enabled. (Driving focus is enabled automatically when it connects to the car via BT.) The car is connected to the home wifi as well. It very rarely automatically...

Oh I have home charging. I have a 6L 30R plug in my garage and I ordered the adaptor from evseadaptors, works like a charm and I pull 24amps without issue. That's enough for me at home.

My first BEV. I've have a PHEV for the past 5 years, a Chevy Volt. Great car for commuting. Small car for road tripping and camping. I like the Y a lot on the highway. It can just eat kilometres. Of the main highways though the car can be a bit grating over rougher roads. I did 100km on Sunday...

I have the L6 30R adaptor for my mobile charger from EVSE. Works great. I'm pulling 24 amps from the 30a outlet. I just wish it was a 90 degree plug so it would hang down so much from the outlet. Trying to find the parts to make an extension with a 90 degree plug.

I think this might be happening to me when I have Easy Entry enabled on my driver profile. I've disabled it for now and will monitor to see if it's any better. Perhaps switching between the 2 profiles is causing the issue with AM?

Removed the hold given the uncertainty. Still have the same VIN, such is life. Scheduled for delivery on June 7. Should have it for Canada Day camping at least!

Guh. I ordered on 05/24, white/black/19s/tow, VIN on 05/26, EDD 05/28-0611. Put mine on hold until 06/10 since it was HW3. Now with MIC models in the mix, who knows what I will get!?! Wondering if I should take my chances and remove the hold now, or wait it out.
