    Supercharging and Navigation

    I made a trip in Europe this summer, about 2000 miles. Few times I was in hotels, about one hour, one hour and half from a supercharger. Following Tesla navigation I arrive at the hotel with 10%-15% battery and next morning not able to get to the closest supercharger. I found annoying not being...

    Keep battery full or as is for random car use

    Forgot to mention in my initial email, got an LFP battery (MY RWD), but I guess is the same. Maybe a good indication, how Tesla stores and transports the cars from China to US or Europe on boat, and how they keep them in storage.before loading on the boat and at destination before selling. Are...

    Keep battery full or as is for random car use

    I use the car once in few days. When I get home is 40-50% and don't have to drive for few days, maybe one week. What would be better for battery health, leave it as is, 40%, and charge it to full just before next drive or charge it to full directly when I get home and keep it full for the days I...

    AC & Heat only works well when recirculating?

    I noticed also the this behavior on the 2023 Y. It is like the AC is not kicking in, or barely noticeable. This is most of the time when it is not in Automatic mode. I switch to Automatic and it starts working. I also noticed each time I pull up the ventilation window, the recirculate is ON...

    Model Y 7-seater rear seat occupancy sensor issue

Is not always happening, one time, one hour trip, alarm goes on almost every five minutes. Other time no alarm or just few during the trip. i think is...

    I regret my Model Y purchase because of seat comfort and seating position problems

    I have a 2023 Y RWD. I have to say this is the worst seat from all cars I owned. The passenger side seat is far more comfortable. I point the problem to the lumbar support system in the driver seat. It is true, when lumbar support is in lower position, the seat feels better. The passenger seat...

    Stories of someone's cracked casting. Should we worry about this?

    Not to disappoint, cracks never shrink. They only shrink in sci-fi movies with starships made of imaginary self-healing materials. Cracks always expand, slow or fast, unless stopped by a stress relief feature.

    Sun visors annoyances

    From 5- 6 cars of different manufacturers I owned this is the first time I had a problem with a sun visor. I even could not imagine that a sun visor can have problems... and it needs training to use it! This is definitely not an improvement, but the opposite.

    Sun visors annoyances

    2023 model Y RWD, maybe also other model, has a magnetic clip attaching one side of the visor. When trying to lower the visor, instead of rotating, it jumps out of the clip and smash into the windshield. Need to be really careful to keep the visor in the clip, not always possible when suddenly...

    Unable to Update Quick Controls in iPhone App

    I had same issue with an iPhone SE2, which has a smaller screen, After 20 minutes on phone with Tesla Support, a very helpful guy, calling up its colleagues to solve the issue, we figured out that the Tesla iPhone app is not very good designed and on phones with small screens the area were you...

    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    This is 2023 Model Y RDW with basic Autopilot. The distance to the wall is approx. 1ft (40cm), Tesla screen shows big crash. Also notice the car next is about same distance from wall, the display shows that is further in front. Not only the distance to the wall is wrong but also the position of...

    Any Android box with HomeKit Secure Video HKSV

    I am looking for a box, something like the Android boxes for Apple or Google CarPlay, but able to support the Apple HomeKit Secure Video HKSV, to use for Sentry. Apple gives 10 days backup / playback free iCloud storage for device using HKSV. In theory it should not be very complicate to send...

    My experience on my 2023 MY RWD (Australia, Giga Shanghai)

    I have the same model in NL, with the LFP battery. I have to agree Tesla advise is unclear. It say to keep limit at 100% and let the car plugged in. Definitively it will charge 100% with this setting, not to 80%. !! Probably they mean that if you don't have the chance to charge it usually 100%...

    Aftermarket Tesla CarPlay and Android Auto Devices

    Posted this yes, probably wrong forum... I noticed in most set up guides from different CarPlay boxes you need to enter in Tesla browser a Chinese website address, whatever.cn. Do you think is your iPhone and Tesla data sent to some Chinese server?

    CarPlay boxes - where your data is going?

    Tesla app 4.x

    I remember seeing on the Connector installation manual how to add it to the app. I sent the Connector back, temporary, as it takes few months , half year to change 1-phase to 3-phase, maybe get a new version in this time. But now I am concerned, considering it is correctly installed and it does...

    Car wash wax effect on camera

    Did you guys noticed any effect on camera(s) after washing the car? I can imagine a degradation in the capacity of recognizing the objects and distances (anyway off by at least one feet, without wax). On the photo / video camera, wax on lens is a disaster..

    Thumb wheels annoyances

    Wondering if some cars could have the thumb wheel buried deeper into the steering wheel?! when the exposed surface is smaller, could be difficult to get grip sidewise...just a thought

    Thumb wheels annoyances

    I think there is no comparison with Logitech spherical scroll wheel which easy rotate all direction. That is a good design. However Tesla thumb wheel has only up-down rotation. It is also less than half exposed, most of it buried in the steering wheel. That makes the pressure component going...

    Thumb wheels annoyances

    Just got a 2023 model y, with the spherical thumb wheels on the steering wheel. I found it a very unfortunate design. It is almost impossible to control the sidewise movement. Few people tried and had same experience. Rather than moving left-right the thumb wheels are moving like pressing on...

    Premium Connectivity in buitenland

    I am still in the free trial, one month free, premium connectivity. Yesterday drove first time outside NL, to Germany, for a short trip. Few minutes after reentered NL, I noticed a navigation screen refresh, something like the the satellite images just showed up. I was not really careful if the...
