    Model Y Suspension and Ride Comfort Options

    Does anyone know the rates of the standard Model Y LR springs?

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    There is in fact more, on this page: Alignment Requirement - Suspension which says that alignment is not required at either end.

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    Yes, I did the same and could see both pages (having got through several iterations of Captcha pics!). But there is nothing much there more than is in your post.

    Thanks; that's what I thought. Are you Andy and a member of the TOGUK?

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    Given that one does not make any change to the springs, is it necessary to get an alignment check?

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    Thank you very much. In case it's useful; here's a list: Torque settings, front: Top hat 23 Pinch bolt 56 Lower bolt to knuckle 106 Sway-bar link 98 Torque settings, rear: Top hat 23 – 35 In the video, he wasn't certain) Top bolts 41 Bottom end 114

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    Your post will be very helpful indeed when I come to fit these; thank you. Do you know the torque settings for the bolts that have to be undone?

    Tein EnduraPro Plus adjustable shock absorbers fitted

    I think you mean the bump stop. The consensus seems to be that you definitely do not want to use the original unchanged because it's too long and will stop the auto-damping from working but you might want to use it cut down (middle section removed) to ensure that it doesn't crash and perhaps to...

    Voice command frustration

    VCs rely on there being a good data connection to the server so they don't always work. Perhaps that's the reason.

    Voice command frustration

    That surprises me - I have been using them in a Model Y for a long time. Have you re-started the computer (press both scroll-wheels)? You are way behind in your firmware release - the newest is 2022.40.4.1.

    Voice commands in German

    Does anyone use German voice commands? If so, is there a list of those that work? I ask because one other person and I are coordinating an unofficial list of commands that work in English and would like to have the commands documented in other languages (there is, for instance, a French...

    Voice command feedback/confirmation/error messages

    The main problem is that there is no 'official' list of VCs and the lists on the Tesla website and in the owner's manual are nothing like complete. Another is that there is no route through which one can suggest new commands to Tesla. As someone said above, there is Glide app and there is a...

    Voice command frustration

    The F seems to get lost. Try saying a-fold mirrors or mirrors fold.

    S3XY buttons at Abstract Ocean

    You can do this with a voice command: Fan to auto(matic).

    S3XY buttons at Abstract Ocean

    On the Commander page of your website; it says: UNLOCK CHARGING PORT Use the rear driver's door handle ..... On a RHD car, does this mean the left-hand door?

    Cancel location for auto fold mirrors

    I think I misled you - I told you how it was done in an older X or S. In 3 and Y, if you fold the mirrors from the Controls screen, "Save location" pops up below the button; tap that. To cancel it, tap Fold mirrors when you get to the location; "Saved Location" appears; tap that.

    Is there a voice command "Turn Fog Lights on" that works?

    Are you not on v11 software, then? When you touch the Car button. v11 brings up what used to be called Quick Controls; the fog-lamp buttons are on that.
  18. Whitmarsh

    Is there a voice command "Turn Fog Lights on" that works?

    Sorry, my response was wrong - I thought the fogs were on the Controls menu. Yes, to open the Lights panel, say "Show Light Settings". You can show any Settings panel like that.
  19. Whitmarsh

    Is there a voice command "Turn Fog Lights on" that works?

    I think the easiest way at present is to say Show Controls (which brings up the (Quick) Controls window; then you can tap the Fog Lights button. Not that I find fog light to be of much use.

    Voice command "Trunk close" being interpreted as "Trunk clothes".

    Try Close mirrors. Unfold seems to work fine.

    New Voice Commands needed

    Well, I don't agree about the need for an American accent, except perhaps for some words that end in R. I certainly do not have an AA - I suppose I speak in English Received Pronunciation (old BBC) - and most VCs work fine. But the system is bad with a lot of English accents - perhaps your...

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Do you have the pedestrian warning system in the US? That makes a high-pitched up to about 15 mph.

    Cancel location for auto fold mirrors

    Sorry for not responding sooner. In the Controls menu, next to the picto of a mirror, there is the text Always Fold Mirrors at this location. If you have done that, the text changes to Autofold set at this location. To the right of that, there is an X. Tap that and the setting is removed.

    2019.32 - Improved performance...across ALL trims!

    It's about 150 GBP in the UK, so probably $150 in the USA.

    Model S gone in less than 60 seconds

    It was a service loan car and Tesla don't allow P2D on those because they couldn't keep track of the PIN(s).

    Model S gone in less than 60 seconds

    It was a loan car!

    Model S gone in less than 60 seconds

    Oh but you can - just pull out the SIM card, which takes a few seconds when you know how. That's what has been done with cars stolen in the UK. Very few have been recovered.

    Voice command list - From Car

    Keep Climate On and Dog Mode On would be useful. Also Tilt/Intrusion Off.

    Cancel location for auto fold mirrors

    I cancelled my location. I stopped at the location and tapped the X at the end of 'Automatically fold mirrors at this location'. It's the same as for the suspension. It seems that this function is intended only for entering/leaving a garage because the mirrors unfold within about 10 metres...

    Why does Model 3 need CCS/CHAdeMO adapter? This is why.

    The EU/UK version of the Model 3 has a CCS port but Tesla have said they will sell a CCS adapter for Model S & X. There was a picture of it in a recent Elektrek letter.

    PowerWall 2 from USA to Europe

    Power in Europe is 220-240 volt. Homologation might be a problem too - devices attached to a power network have to be approved by the country and labelled as such and the local supply company has also to approve. Bringing a PW from the USA is almost certainly not worth the hassle.

    Question about Homelink

    Many openers do not support HomeLink; have you ascertained whether your does? If not, you will have to connect a supplementary HomeLink-compatible receiver to the opener, such as the PR433-4 made by Gentex/Chamberlain (though that particular model works at 433MHz, which I don't think you use in...

    v9 finally going international? ... 2018.40 spotted in Japan

    I really would not worry about this; the only real improvement in v9 is that autosteer is more stable and auto-lane-change is better. However, the user interface has changed a lot - and not for the better: smaller icons, things moved to other places, more taps to control the climate system...

    New Anti-Theft package at Tesla Shop

    Yes, it does trigger a mobile alert - it sets the alarm off, so you get the same alert as the basic alarm gives. There are three things to watch for with this Tilt/Intrusion enhancement: 1. If a bug gets caught in the car, the alarm will sound. 2. If you leave a dog or child in the car, you...

    Software Update 2018.42.x

    That's as may be but, in the meantime, we have to put up with an interface that is a severe downgrade from what we had. I agree that it's good to have all the heating/cooling in one place but the icons are too small to be got at safely when driving.

    Software Update 2018.42.x

    This does not give me confidence that it will handle roundabouts in the UK (we have thousands) with up to 6 exits!

    But it seems that you still have to have a bit of the nav above the camera. What on earth use is that?

    Petition to demand "camera on top, media player on bottom" be retained in UI

    Here are two questions: In v9, if you put the car into reverse, I assume the camera-image appears. 1 Is it at the top of the screen? 2. Does it still have the button that lets you see an image of what the rear sensors detect?

    Orientation of touch-screen display for RHD cars - v9

    It has always seemed to me that the position of various things on the screen has been designed for LHD. For example, the list of turns in the satnav (which includes the voice volume and, in v9, a Settings button) and the Controls and Settings menu items are all on the left, and the Charge...

    Call for civil disobedience - Northampton Supercharger

    This is a fuss about nothing. You don't have to leave the car unattended for more than a few minutes - the hotel reception is just opposite the SCs. Parking Eye are not supervising the chargers; they are supervising the whole of the car park in which the chargers happen to be. The hotel...

    Rear-view camera with V9 firmware

    Well, the fuss made elsewhere on TMC, especially about the camera, seems to have worked: Elon Musk on Twitter No mention of having other apps in the top half, though.

    Petition to demand "camera on top, media player on bottom" be retained in UI

    Well, Tesla seems to have listened, at least with respect to the camera at the top: Elon Musk on Twitter. No mention of other apps at the top.
