I made the mistake of taking up my window tint guy's upsell in tinting my windshield (albeit lightly at 70%) -- my night vision is terrible enough, and it's enough to make me uncomfortable driving in the evenings. I know there've been some people who have encountered issues with windshield tint...

I'm using an iPhone 11 Pro Max on iOS 13 and 3.10.2 of the Tesla app -- for the entire life of my car, the phone key has been rock solid, maybe failing 2-3 times over the past year. Lately though, and this does not coincide with any iOS or car updates, it hasn't been working well. It requires...

If you are, can you check to see if Tesla Remote (formerly known as Remote S) is available in your Shortcuts app if you're using iOS13? I'm on developer beta 4, and it hasn't shown up in the Shortcuts app since beta 1. Thanks. (yes I know it's a beta, I have no expectation that it'll work, just...

Has anyone else noticed that their car is louder after updating to 8.5? In particular, my AWD LR seems to have a noticeably louder whine during regenerative braking and hard acceleration.

Reading all of those reports of frunks being stuck has me paranoid - but not enough where I don't use it at least once a day. Typically, I keep food/smelly items in there, almost always in a low profile cooler I bought for this purpose. I dread the day though, that my frunk doesn't open and...

This is probably a dumb question, but I was about to send my referral link to someone when I discovered that it... disappeared. I can't find it in the app or on the Tesla my account page. Anyone know where I might be able to find it these days?

Just got 70% on the windshield and 40% for all other windows - I noticed that the side windows are, as expected, a lot darker than the windshield - but they're also considerably more "brown" in color. Has anyone else noticed this? And maybe more importantly, does the smell of the tint/adhesive...

Hopped into my AWD this morning, probably the 4th or 5th time I've driven it a week after delivery, and the AC won't work. Fan won't work. Heater won't work. It shows as turned on, but clearly no air is coming out. I tweaked all of the settings, reset the display (two thumb reset), powered off...

On the Model S, I could press and hold the steering wheel buttons/controls to select different widgets on the dashboard, and the controls could also correspond to whatever was selected (e.g. picking fan speed would allow the wheel/button to change the fan speed). This doesn't seem to be the case...

On a whim, I plugged in my Model S's Slacker Radio login into my Model 3, and it worked fine. I wonder what'll happen though, when I lease-return the S? I'll be sure to log out of the account on my S, but I wonder if the account is time-limited... has anyone else done this?

Took delivery of my MSM AWD 3 today after a loooooooong ordeal leading up to the event (over a week's worth of logistics problems, then sent home from AM delivery), and even spent most of the day at the DC with delivery issues. When I walked around the car, I noticed that there were some paint...

Yes, I realize that I'm probably pissing into the wind at this point, but I need to know who I can complain to about my awful (yet to be, because they keep jerking me around) delivery experience? I'm guessing tweeting at Elon isn't going to help, with today's news. Nobody at the Vegas delivery...

Does anyone know whether Tesla (well, US Bank) cares whether a lease returned car has window tint? (Not too dark) When I’ve leased other cars in the past (mostly BMWs), it hasn’t been an issue.

In CA, we have a choice between several plate types - I've narrowed it down to the standard white and also a black plate. There are also various others that are light bluish (because of the scenery depicted). What do you all think? Black plate on a MSM car, or a white one? (the car will have...

My order currently has third party financing, since I intend to go to my local credit union, but I wonder if it matters at all what I've chosen? Is there any downside to choosing to finance through Tesla (really, through one of their third parties)? I figured it might streamline the process, and...

I'm currently waiting on a VIN, and then delivery at Costa Mesa, CA. Reading all of the horror stories has me considering taking delivery elsewhere. The last time I was there (for a P test drive), the place was a zoo, poorly organized, and I left angry, even after the test drive. This is...

Coming from a Model S, whose air filter has done a great job insulating me from the exhaust, smoke, cows, etc... I'm worried about the 3 not having such an advanced filter. Any reports on how well it works compared to the S?

I suppose it's all subjective anyway, but I'm beginning to wonder whether I'm going to regret going with the 18" aero wheels instead of the 19" upgraded wheels on my AWD. I've had a tinge of regret from not upgrading the wheels on my P90D, but that faded over time. Part of my reasoning for...

This may vary by state -- my model S was delivered with a from plate holder, and it was a pain the butt to remove. Does anyone know whether model 3s are being delivered with front plate holders, and if so, whether they're easily removable?

I'm a current Model S owner, and placed my deposit on 3/31 - I received my invitation to configure several months ago, and have been waiting for a few reasons: my current Model S lease ends on October-01, and I'd like to get AWD (and possibly Performance). I've been trying to gauge the best...

I removed the front license plate on my S upon delivery, and have been fine driving without it here in CA (knock on wood). However, I've been asked to pick up a friend at the airport next week, and I've heard that they zealously enforce the front plate law there. I have a few strips of...

So I woke up this morning to a frigid interior - my AC had been set to "LO," as it seems to perform better this way in the socal heat, but when I entered my garage, I heard the AC running. This isn't the first time it's happened. I use TeslaFi and the Remote-S/Tesla-App, not sure if those are...

Not that I ought to be driving fast, but for the first time in my seven months of ownership, I needed to go a it faster than 80-ish... (car was coming up on my tail really fast, so I wanted to move over). However, I found that even with the pedal to the floor on a flat road, my P90DL couldn't...

So rather than figuring out how to get always-on USB (5V?) power, has anyone tried to just power a dash cam with one of those USB batteries/powerbanks? Seems like the typical ways of powering a dashcam are the 12V in the mic grill (would have to be stepped down for 5V), the cigarette lighter...

It seems like Tesla recently added a checkbox so we could select whether we wanted a chime when home links activates to open/close a garage door - it was working fine for a while, but as of 2.46.16, it seems like the chime only works once, then un-selects itself. Has anyone else seen this and/or...

I picked up my car two weeks ago and am still on 7.1 (which is apparently not a bad thing at all) -- it seems like the flow of 8.0 updates has either slowed to a trickle or stopped altogether, perhaps due to all of the complaints and issues? Has anyone gotten an 8.0 update within the past...

I took delivery of my Model S last Friday, and my Tesla App still isn't working (shows "No Vehicles Linked to This My Tesla Account"). After calling my Service ("call your DS"), DS ("call tech support"), and finally Tech Support ("wait a few days") - I'm starting to wonder who can actually get...

Given all of the controversy over 8.0, maybe I should be glad that I'm still on 7.1 after taking delivery last week, but I can't help but wonder when I'll get the 8.0 update? My DS said that they tend not to perform update before delivery at the SC, and I got a minor 7.1 update the night of...

Yeah, I know it sounds silly, and maybe it'll change as I learn to trust Autopilot... but where are my feet supposed to go when Autopilot is enabled? Right now (day two), I have my foot hovering over the brake pedal - for obvious reasons, this is fatiguing and probably not ideal. I'd hate to...

Looks like mine is due to arrive at the local SC this week. Are there any others out there who ordered/deposited pre-EOQ but had their cars delayed in transit (or for any other reason)? Those of you who took delivery after EOQ, did they give you any trouble with your discounts or loan/lease...

I'm looking for a set of 4 19" Slipstreams, preferably in mint/excellent condition. I'll be having them powdercoated to go on my S. Southern California preferred, but for the right price shipped, anywhere is fine.

So I just got a call from my DS saying that, direct from Elon, orders that wouldn't be able to make physical delivery by EOQ would have their terms honored whenever delivery is actually made. My car, for example, was across the country when I placed the deposit. I was assured at the time that...

I was able to snag a great deal on a car that is sitting across the country (in the northeast) - I've seen delivery times on inventory cars anywhere from days to many weeks. It seems like around a month is common if the car has to be trucked a long way. My OA was thinking the middle of October...

I placed a deposit for a car on the east coast (I'm in Southern California) - can anyone share what the transportation process is like in terms stages/communication? Does the car just show up one day without getting any emails, or are we told when it's loaded onto a (train? Truck?) I've been...

So there have been some posts with horror stories about CPO cars condition and then some who said that theirs was like new. Obviously, these are used, but most would agree that a CPO should be held to a higher standard. What was yours like? (Please add the year and any non identifying details.)

I'm on the fence between ordering a S60 and an (early, I'm guessing) CPO 2013 P85... It looks like with the CPO, I'd be giving up a few things from the S60 like autopilot, LTE, and rear cupholders/USB. Since this is only going to be a bridge until I my Model 3 number gets called, I'd be...

My current lease is up in about three months. I have a day-one reservation (along with 100k+ others) for a Model3... what do I do between the time my current lease is up and I actually get my model3? I had been considering picking up a Model S on a 2 or 3yr lease, but now there's the added...

Does anyone have the lease residuals for a P90D for 24m/10k and 36m/10k? I'm looking at snagging one of those discounted inventory cars. A quick call to the local dealership has the residuals at 56% (36m) and 66% (24m), but those numbers are so far off from what I've been working with for the a...

I'm looking at a fairly basic Model-S... I'm certain that I wouldn't keep it past 36 months though, due to my wandering eye and the rapidly evolving technology. 70 RWD (I drive about 15mi/day total) Autopilot (I can't say I need this at all, but it's too cool to skip) Sunroof (same) Nextgen...
