    Custom lock sound file - where does it go?

    Only one named Lockchime.wav will be sourced at a time. I keep a folder in the directory with all of my different sounds named appropriately and then just copy over one and rename it Lockchime.wav in the root directory any time I want to change it.

    BTW big changes in 2024 Model Y vs 2023 earlier Model Y

    Pretty sure I have most (all?) of these in my '23MYP with delivery taken end of September (built in Fremont). Will have to check to be sure.

    Are any of the tricks to force a software update real?

    Here's what I've had recently for my '23 MYP in case it helps (always parked with solid wifi, 'advanced' updates on even if it doesn't help, and I force-check once/day when there's s/w I know is out there that I don't have) 12/22/23 1819 2023.44.30.6 11.4.9 12/31/23 0829 2023.44.30.7 11.4.9...

    Are any of the tricks to force a software update real?

    You might have luck requesting it through the service feature in the app given that it's the font size recall. Pretty sure I read a thread somewhere where someone had success going this path.

    Supercharger - Upland, CA (under construction Jan 2024, 64 V3 stalls)

    Phone key doesn't always connect

    Might check to see that both motion and fitness and background app refresh are on for the Tesla App on an iphone. Both could also help. No UWB on my 23 MYP with 2024.2.6 that I just received - bummed the hardware's not there...that would have made things magical.

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    No UWB on '23 Model Y Performance in the US on 2024.2.6. :(. The news was correct (at least for me). So today was the first day that 2024.2.6 hit the US.. and the only model year 23 vehicle so far for this release appears to be the Model Y (note Tesla-Info's REALY good release heat map...

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    Yeah that's been there for several months. "Improve Phone Key: Set Location Access to Always to provide a more reliable location when you return to your vehicle". This was their last attempt to help make opening in the car more reliable than just bluetooth. It does help but it will drain your...

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    UWB can prevent the relay attacks so this is one of those where I hope security trumps cheap.

    Alright now I'm a little more optimistic :) thanks for sharing.

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    I know it says that but I can't find the source of that information...guessing some user reports. No need to wait and see on this - UWB does require additional hardware because it operates on different RF frequencies. Here's Tesla's FCC filing for the B-Pillar endpoint with UWB support (the...

    Model Y buy back and issues

    Yes. Login to your account on Tesla.com, click ‘manage’ on the vehicle, and you should have your MVPA under ‘Documents’ I successfully sued Honda/Acura under the CA lemon law 20 years ago. Not sure what IL has. In CA, mileage is determined from when you purchased to the mileage when the first...

    Has UWB hardware made it into HW4 vehicles?

    And finally I get some replies given the 2024.2.3 update with UWB support for some vehicles. :) NotATeslaApp has a decent write up related to the news. Glad to see it coming out at least for some. Two items though: 1. The article does not discuss the replay attack prevention I discuss above...

    Phone key doesn't always connect

    The 4.29.5 iOS Tesla App update definitely caused a problem for some devices from my experience. My wife's iPhone 15 Pro Max immediately regressed and had problems where the car was not opening quickly where it had been 100% reliable previously (Tesla Mobile App Peeps, you listening? (DM me if...

    Be considerate on test drives

    My wife freaked when she was in the driver seat for her first demo drive and the rep started to walk away "wait, you're not coming with us?" He responded, "Elon prefers you get to experience the performance of the vehicle without creepy oversight." My 22year old son proceeds to get out of the...

    time to replace tires on my MYP, need suggestions

    on my '23MYP, I'm personally planning to stick with your #1 option. 30% of the time, my MYP is driven hard. 20%, very hard. 50% is casual when the wife is driving and the V1 is unplugged. I think I've settled on not rotating tires at all - seems like very little benefit. I'm willing to bet I'll...

    Be considerate on test drives

    Seems like they should be recalled to the dealership after 30 minutes. "Forced Autopilot has been engaged to return this vehicle to the showroom. Please do not attempt to deviate the vehicle from the prescribed path. Thank you." 🤣

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    I should have been a little clearer... plenty of installs of 2023.44.30.9 to Model Ys, but not in North America. In North America, it appears that 2023.44.30.9 is only hitting Model 3s. Not A Tesla App really doesn't break the data out like that. TeslaFi's data also supports this (hard to...

    Is the new Macan EV a MY killer?

    Sorry, I should have qualified that I was talking on a worldwide level based on the data from JATO (here's an article from yesterday: 2023 (Full Year) Global: Best-Selling Car Models Worldwide - Car Sales Statistics (best-selling-cars.com)) - where MY was the top vehicle.

    Is the new Macan EV a MY killer?

    Trolling should be banned. Porsche people will buy a Porsche and don't care about value - They only care about how good they look in their Porsche. To be fair, almost all present Cybertruck owners also fit this mold. The reason the 2023 Tesla Model Y was the best-selling car of any kind in...

    2023.44.30.9 looks to be only Model 3 in North America. (Tesla 2023.44.30.9 Release Notes (tesla-info.com)) Looks like @whisperingshad as a Model Y.

    Can you add Wiper Control to the cards on Tesla display?

    Yeah, that's still the easiest way to get them adjusted. I just realized bad auto wipers just had another anniversary. 6 years now since Elon announced their awesomeness.

    2023 Holiday Update Imminent

    Remember that there's a NHTSA recall involved. If in the application of the recall they damaged your vehicle, there's probably a realistic case for them to fix it at their expense. No different than if you took it into the dealership for a recall out of warranty and it came out damaged. No way...

    Poll: When will FSD V12 be in wide release?

    Weeks is far safer than months or quarters... you start the bidding at 2 (weeks -- plural) and probably get up to 51 weeks ("hey, I said 'weeks' - what did you think I meant... 2 weeks? seriously??" At the end of the day, as a career product guy, I really respect Elon's approach. Everyone...

    Supercharger - Upland, CA (under construction Jan 2024, 64 V3 stalls)

    Grew up in Upland. Wife and my parents are still there. We visit often from San Diego. There's a serious gap out by the Tesla service center off of campus so I totally agree that would have been a better location and I suggested to Tesla a location there near the In-n-out (as Ontario Mills is...

    Can you add Wiper Control to the cards on Tesla display?

    Lies. :) I just survived the 1,000 year storm in San Diego and my 23 ModelY's auto wipers still failed miserably. 4" in 6 hours and I still had times where they didn't trigger. And just because it's cool (uhh, stupid), check out this Tesla in boat mode in downtown San Diego during the floods...

    Custom lock sound file - where does it go?

    There are some sites online that allow you to reprocess a wav. Just google 'change volume on wav', find one, upload it, download. They're not very efficient but it works as long as you're still under a meg in size.

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    Warning: this is long. 12 years ago, I was a very early Tesla investor. That same year, I received Tesla's email entitled "Infinite Mile Warranty for Model S Drive Units" - I'm going to quote it because it was the critical point to me doubling down on Elon. This is a cut/paste from the email...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    I was about to move an additional 5 figures into Tesla today. Elon's comment stopped me. I don't disagree with him, but I didn't know he wasn't getting compensated. While a compensation package is well-deserved, it was he and he alone that lost his shares to purchase Twitter. That said, seems...

    MagBak RimCase quick review - 21” Ubertine

    Still waiting :) Here's an honest review. I ordered in October after I watched my wife ready to curb my rims. She had her MYP license temporarily suspended while I ordered stuff from MagBak - four sets and a spare + I also ordered their magsafe mount (which is AMAZING - so clean, works great...

    Just tinted all my windows on my MYP

    What's most amazing to me is that you managed a "sunroof" in your Model Y :) I'm jealous. Who's your installer? :) Still one of the best OG Model S features. But let's be honest. A sunroof isn't good enough. Neither is a moonroof. I'm wanting my entire roof to somehow recline/disappear into the...

    How to match tint? Is windshield worth it?

    I used Suntek CXP (been happy with them for 20+ years - value for the money and my local installer is amazing - it's not the high end heat resistance nor high end crazy expensive material) - I did 45 on the front sides, 35 on the rear sides, rear window, and roof, and 55 on the windshield. I was...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    I figured out my confusion. I was reading the manual where it's fully unclear that 'Auto Lane Change' is an additional upgrade....but on the upgrade option (now that i have it) it clearly says 'auto lane change' is part of the first $6k option. The mention of being easier to 'break' from...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    So it's interesting now that my FSD 3-month trial just expired and I did my first trip without FSD (and without enhanced Autopilot). Autopilot + AutoSteer (Beta) enabled is really good on the highway. I wish I could indicate lane changes and have it change lanes but even though I swore I read...

    Custom lock sound file - where does it go?

    One other small nit to check is that after putting the USB drive back in (with your new lockchime.wav), you have to select a built-in chime (like 'Chirp') AND let it completely finish playing before reselecting 'USB' or it doesn't appear to refresh the lockchime.wav with the updated version.

    Model Y buy back and issues

    Follow-up with whomever said they were filing it. If you have a loaner, and you're still allowed to drive it, I'd take that as a good sign (they could shut you down). Escalate it. Take detailed notes. Know everyone you talk with and when you talked with them. Your state matters when it comes to...
