    Tesla Offer Trunk/Frunk Group Buy (3/S/X)

    Does anyone know how to use the emergency pull latch? i.e. is it used on concert with the 12v bypass or instead of? I tried pulling it with the car unlocked and nothing happened. I just want to test in the comfort of my garage while I have time to sort things out rather than a real world...

    FSD rewrite will go out on Oct 20 to limited beta

    Yeah... in fact it’s a used model X (not sure if the year) with a FSD upgrade sometime in 2019. I got my FSD hardware swap late 2019 / early 2020. The specific timeline is a blur though :)

    FSD rewrite will go out on Oct 20 to limited beta

    I’ll check to see if he will let me shoulder surf his email. I won’t ask him to forward it to me. I am working from home today so I won’t see him until tomorrow at the earliest. Having said that you bring up a good point. He just asked if I got the “FSD email”? I said no and was jealous and...

    FSD rewrite will go out on Oct 20 to limited beta

    My friend received an email from Tesla informing him of the upcoming beta scheduled for next week. I was bummed since up until this point he and I received the same EarlyAccess emails. So either he: 1. Is a more careful and expert driver in his X than I am in my 3. 2. Tesla is also excluding...

    Vendor Model 3 HEPA Upgraded Cabin Filters!

    Way less expensive for sure. However, while I suspect the filter material between oem and my more expensive aftermarket filter is identical, the shell or box design is quite different. The side of the aftermarket filter that leans on the HVAC is plastic while the oem filter is fabric like...

    Tesla V10 software update rollout: post here if you are still waiting

    Weird I still don’t see any Model S/X on 10.1 yet on TeslaFi. Are you looking at another third party aggregator?

    Window operation

    I am but normally I get an email from Tesla stating “Hey try out such and such”. That did not happen with this app update so I just assumed it was a public release :)

    Sweet! All 4 windows roll down about 2 inches.

    Can Tesla do rudimentary noise cancellation?

    Good point. Maybe AI/ML can drown out highway humm but allow siren sounds etc. to be heard clearly??

    Can Tesla do rudimentary noise cancellation?

    Do you think the hardware exists (speaker setup and mic) that Tesla could combine with some fancy digital signal processing to offer some level of highway noise cancellation?

    Tesla service center no loaner Tesla anymore?

    I was offered 100 Uber credits and would generally have been fine with that however I work on a military installation. It’s a long walk from the gate to my office. They set me up with what felt like a Model S alpha build lol. It got the job done and the get-up-n-go was awesome! :)

    Tampa Tire Repair Shop

    Hi All, I have a nail in one of my tires. Can anyone recommend a tire shop that is familiar with the Mode 3? I’m a little hesitant to take my vehicle to a Tire Kingdom, Firestone, etc. without having an endorsement from a previous customer. Thanks for the assist! ~Lou

    Second thoughts

    I’ve had my LR RWD for just shy a year now and I still get asked about the vehicle. I always include (because I was shocked that I didn’t feel this way) that I had ZERO buyers remorse.

    Returning Tesla M3 after awful delivery experience

    After page 1 I just scrolled through pages 2-6 to see if there were any thumbnails I could click on to see the scratches. Someone might have already asked but if not and if you still have the car can you share pics of the scratches? Please disregard if this has been asked and answered:)...

    Blog Tesla Plans Debut of Robotaxi Service in 2020

    Assuming the glass isn’t cracked or some other mechanical issue and using the example of mud and leaves this is easy! I am going assume your AV would be able to pull over somewhere safe. Then (and this is where the magic happens) you simply “rent” a Tesla Pickup and send it to the location...

    Tampa Collision Body Shop Questions

    **UPDATE** I contacted Tesla and they stated the Tesla Body Repair Center's are only equipped for minor body repair while the 3rd party approved shops have the ability to get the parts and perform the work etc. This is counterintuitive but at least it helps make the decisions process easier for me.

    Tampa Collision Body Shop Questions

    Thanks for the fast reply Ken! The Eatonville shop is 106 miles away. I intend to give them a call to inquire if they have the parts based on a description of the damage. I will probably do the same with the shop here in Tampa to see what they same. Although if anyone has reviews of either...

    Early Access Program Invite

    But what’s the second rule? I don’t think I’ll be joining. I have a pretty specific use case that TeslaFi solves for me. It’s a first world problem for sure but then again so is not having access to the early access lol

    New Car smell...

    Model 3 was my first new vehicle purchase so I have no frame of reference. Having said that the off gassing did make me dizzy and nauseous just the first day or so as I recall. I garage parked the vehicle with the windows down and also drove around with the windows down when possible. I think...

    Did your Model 3 come with the rear license plate frame?

    Mine only came with the two top screws. Both have been overtightened and I am unable to remove them gracefully. Ijust got my updated registration in the mail today so I was excited to swap the temp tag with my own but I'll have to call the service center on Monday to see what they can do.

    Windshield Washer

    Is it me or does the “stock” fluid not do a very good job at cleaning even water spots from rain? I’m debating on draining and refilling with another fluid but I just read in the owners manual “Do not add formulated washer fluids that contain water repellent or bug wash. These fluids can cause...

    Windshield Tint 70% / 90% to Combat Florida Sun

    Hello Team Tesla Florida! Has anyone got ceramic tint on their winshield? I’m curious about feedback. I understand 90% is “virtually” clear while 70% is a little less clear. Any negative impacts to speak of? Thanks! ~Lou

    Telsa App for Model 3 - Restriction Options?

    Telsa App for Model 3 - Restriction Options?
