Is there a way to login on the Tesla TuneIn radio app to your account so I can listen to my channels that are saved in my account? Or am I limited to the default channels that Tesla has provided?

I just got my Model Y a few months ago. We haven't had any hard rain until recently, and today when driving home after my Y was parked all day in the rain at work, I noticed that my front passenger foot well was covered with water, like someone had sat there (no one did). Is this a known...

Does anyone know if there are video instructions for the installation of the "standard" included mount instructions for the new Model Y available? (I'm not looking for any 3rd party no-drill mounts that are all over YouTube...just the standard instructions for the included mount) ...or should I...

(I tried to search online prior to posting, but everything that came up was not applicable to the new refreshed Model Y cabin) I just got delivery of a new Model Y yesterday and need to plug in two regular USB devices. Are there any regular USB ports available in the front of the vehicle? I...

Picked up my new red MYLR yesterday. Just noticed this paint defect now which is posted in photo. Located on drivers side. You can feel it, which feels like a slightly raised piece of sand. Otherwise the vehicle appears flawless. I can live with it but can it be fixed easily?

I’m going to schedule a service visit but wanted to ask here if anyone else has had this issue: Over the past 2 months, my wife’s Model X has been randomly rebooting during driving and both screens black out and reboot after about a minute. Car drives ok but the turn signal does not work. This...

Came back from a short trip and during the ride on the highway a small rock hit our windshield on our Model X, causing a small oval chip a little less than a centimeter. Pic attached. Who have people used to fix this, or is this something people have done fixed themselves?

I swapped out my filters last year and foamed my a/c filter area with resolution of the stinky smell...until now. It’s back. Is this going to be a yearly thing???

Wife’s 2020 Model X Pearl White was found to have a 2cm linear deep scratch on the hood (see pics). any recommendations on paint/buff kits to fix this at home? I heard that the Tesla pearl white kit is not good and makes it look silver. Has anyone used TouchUpDirect kits? any other...

Can someone tell me exactly which settings to turn on (or off) to: Allow passenger door to be opened from the outside, when the vehicle is in Park/Unlocked? For some reason, I cannot figure out which setting controls this. My wife always has to manually open the passenger door button (when...

Do people call Tesla service to come install the license plate frames on the vehicle, or can you do do this by yourself? I don't mind doing it myself, but cannot find the screws needed for the plate bracket that came with the vehicle. (no I don't mind drilling holes). thx

I've been through several Teslas, but was surprised that our latest 2020 Model X did not include the Auto Lane Change feature in the standard package (whereas all our prior Teslas came standard including our Model S and 3). I didn't think that the lane change feature would be considered as...

Wife just bought new 2020 Tesla X (black interior with Ash Wood trim) but is not too fond of the brown faux wood color. Looking for possible conversion kits to either black or carbon fiber, and was wondering if anyone had any recommendations to do a self-install. Also, how difficult was it to...

For some reason, I have been noticing that my seat adjustment doesn't completely move to my default driver profile (from Easy Entry) when I enter the vehicle (sometimes only partially moves). I wonder if it is due to cold weather, but not really sure if it is due to this. What happens is that...

I live in an area where there are a few different Tesla showroom locations that I can choose for delivery. If I purchase, do I pay sales tax for the location of vehicle delivery, or is it based on where the vehicle is titled and registered? I believe it is the latter, but just wanted to double...

I'm looking to purchase a new Model X, and trying to find photos of someone's X who has all 2nd and 3rd row seats folded down. I tried searching for pics (or videos), but for some reason cannot find any... can someone point me to a link (or take a pic if you have one!)? Thanks

I’m not sure why, but recently (last month or so), my Model 3 stays in sentry mode when I walk up to it. My iPhone mobile is in my front pocket and have never had any issues before unlocking the car. Now I have to take out my phone from the pocket and hold it or sometimes wait for 10-15 seconds...

On my 128gb USB drive, I am getting only 1kb files (non-playable of course) in the TeslaCam/RecentClips and SavedClips folders. The Timestamp filenames are correct, but all of the files are 1kb in size, and have no video footage on my Model S. This USB drive was tested on my Model 3, and the...

For the past couple weeks, my air conditioning smells terrible (like vomit) for a few minutes, then eventually goes away. I checked my frunk to make sure nothing was left there, but cannot figure out why this is happening. The smell seems to be more and more noticeable recently. Does anyone...

I would like to use Sentry Mode on my Model 3, but do not need the dashcam driving footage (I use a BlackVue instead). Does Sentry Mode work standalone, without the need to activate the driving dashcam? For some reason, I don't seem to get any recorded Sentry Mode footage (even though my car...

I just got the Sentry mode update and enabled it. I noticed when returning to my parked car that my BlackVue (connected to front cig outlet) was still on and recording. Is this now getting power 24/7? I was actually thinking about hardwiring the BlackVue but if this is always on now, maybe...

Not sure if someone already reported, but just got Dual Motor badge installation scheduling email today for the Chicago area to be done this weekend.

I checked old threads but was wondering if anyone found a at-home “fix” to remove the low battery nag screen yet. I reset both screens and tried to even only use my app to activate the car but cannot get the nag screen to go away. Is the only way still to get rid of this screen is to go to the...

I saw this video, and was wondering if anyone has been able to successfully hook up a dashcam (i.e. BlackVue) to tap into the yellow domelight wire to get constant 12v power.... and confirm that this will not hurt the battery?

I'm a tint newbie and just researching and learning about it now and considering getting tint installed one of these days... In Illinois, it appears that the darkest legal tint is 35%, but obviously there are darker tints out there. If I drive through another state during a roadtrip, I assume...

This is a photo of the heel wear down on 1.5 month old driver side stock floor mats....and this is with only light use (approx 1000 miles driven)!

Finished changing my black Aeros to Silver (Bright Aluminum) using Plasti dip! I didn't like how the black Aeros looked on the Silver Model 3, so I decided to dip them and think it turned out much better than the originals. Before: I didn't like the black Aeros, so I removed them and...

Trying to figure out how long I will need to borrow my wife's car if I decide to get my Model 3 tinted. How long does a typical tinting job take for those who have done it? thanks

Just curious if anyone has ever tried to Plasti dip their wooden trim to a different color. Other than properly masking the surrounding areas, it seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to do. Compared to other options (removing the trim then painting vs. wrapping), could dipping be a more...

I am reading conflicting things regarding the need for Priming surfaces prior to applying Plasti dip. Is priming needed?

thanks!

Model 3 achieves the lowest probability of injury of any vehicle ever tested by NHTSA

Am I going crazy or does music get lounder when you accelerate? I’m not sure if my ears are tricking me.

Compared to my Model X, I am not impressed with how water splashes into the trunk when it is opened during a rainstorm. The rain tends to easily splash right rough the gutter rims of the trunk... on the other hand Model X does a great job in handling this.

Is there a way to change the Slacker music settings in the Model 3 so that the song you were listening to when you left the car, resumes playing at the beginning of the song? (like how Model X and S does it)

Can someone who has used the Stock front license plate holder, and installed at a Tesla center post a photo of how it looks and where they place it? I would like to see how they install it prior to looking for other 'non-drilling' methods. thanks

Does anyone else have issues with wipers not automatically triggering (in Auto mode) when it is raining...until its almost impossible to see (especially when driving in the dark while raining)? It usually gets quite difficult to see before the wipers start, and it would be nice to increase the...

This might be a stupid question, but my front tire calipers look different from my rear ones. Is this normal? Front: And rear:

I’m planning on taking this into my Tesla SC but before I do so, just wanted to post pics of my right rear tire showing sidewall damage to see if anyone thinks that this might be salvageable. I’m expecting that I will need a new tire(s). There is no bulging of the tire. I’m not sure how long...

This is my Silver AWD Model 3 front bumper in the parking lot at my work. As you can see there is very little clearance and if I moved in just a little further the front bumper would have been scraped by the curb. The height seems to be higher in my Model S, as I never have issues with...

I know some people hate it, but I got very used to hearing a chime when I go over the posted speed limit (set at +8mph or so) using Speed assist function in the Model S. Does the Model 3 have this feature? I cannot find it in the instrument settings. thx

One of the features that I used a lot in Model X and S is the ability to change the cabin temperature up or down using the Right thumb rolling button. It doesn't seem to work on the Model 3. Is this something that can be enabled?

I made a quick comparison photo of the rear camera image using the Model 3, Model S, and Model X. (No touchups done on any photos) The cars were parked exactly in the same spot, under overcast skies. As I can’t get screen grabs directly from the car, I tried to take the same photos of the...

I took delivery of my Model 3 two days ago and thought that one of the coolest features was how you could walk up to the car with your iPhone in your pocket and enter the car. Have had several instances where I couldn’t enter the car (and one time with the wife which lost me some points) with...

Just wondering if anyone has had any experiences yet with valeting the Model 3 yet. Do you give your keycard to the valet guy? Any worry about future card copying technology with this?

I noticed I had old referrals from March 16, 2017 - June 15, 2017. I was waiting to receive some sort of instruction to redeem my referral awards, but never got any ... and then forgot about this. Can I still use these old referrals to redeem awards, or are they gone ? thx

I find it funny that our Complimentary Auto inspection (provided by US Bank) prior to returning our Model X in a few weeks was performed, but the Inspector had no idea how to work the Tesla. He had to ask me how to work the gull wing doors, where to find the odometer, and he was looking for the...

I am taking delivery of my dual motor Model 3 this week, and just got my temporary Auto insurance card from my insurance guy (Acuity). Instead of the card stating Model 3, it shows "18 TESL MODEL X P100D PERFORMANCE" with my VIN number. I think my premium cost is more expensive than my Model...

I have had a handful of instances of sudden braking during autopilot driving on highways (not during stop and go traffic like another thread had mentioned) where there clearly is uncongested traffic. My wife always yells at me when this happens and I take over the car immediately at this point...
