Dropped it off Friday morning at the Orlando Service Center, and the Tech said they would most likely...

    Chip inside Charge Port Door

    I think it's the same part, except mine is definitely not plastic, its a very light metal. if the charge door is open and i tap this piece of metal to the corner of the port it will close the door. I think my car got confused if it was open or closed. it works fine now.

    Chip inside Charge Port Door

    2018.18.3

    Has anyone else's 'dinging' when starting the car been inconsistent? since 18.3, putting the car in gear and tapping the break, i see the icons come up but maybe 1/5 times there are no 'dings'

    Static/crackling on some random slacker songs.

    Happened to me about an hour after installing 18.3 .. so still not fixed.

    Static/crackling on some random slacker songs.

    Yes i have the same issue, maybe once a week now? You don't even have to skip the song, just pausing and playing fixes it..Glad to hear it's a known issue.

    No Autopilot, No cruise control?

    They already did this. On the production 3's, the Icon is now a picture of a speedometer rather than the AP icon. http://st.motortrend.com/uploads/sites/5/2017/07/Tesla-Model-3-volume-steering-wheel-controls-02.jpg

    Model 3 RC sightings

    I'm thinking Tinting or internal temperature tests with the roof covered. It's too far back to be the metal roof.
  18. nickpants

    Which version are you planning to buy? (poll)

    I'm fine with RWD. But... It depends on what "Base Model" really means. Glass roof? White Seats? 75Kw battery?

    Only initial options: color and wheel size?

    It says it right on their website: Compare Model S and Model 3 | Tesla
  20. nickpants

    Initial 75 kwh? Don't think so.

    I really hope this is the case.

    Elon says final reveal in July

    I wonder if this will be like the Model X event where they handed over the first 6 VINs to customers.

    Possible reservation number hint on My Tesla

    The Poll owner should change the XXX's to 000's so it sorts better. It's hard to see the trend when people are using both.

    How would you prefer to pay for Supercharging?

    I'd like to hope it turns out to be $1,000 that way I can say I've already paid for it on my deposit.

    Early reservations are worth more than $1,000

    Ah, I remember that. The good 'oll days of Manufactured Spend.. As I recall banks were not at all thrilled to see boxes of coins brought in to be deposited every week.

    How will you refer to your Model 3?

    "Alexa"... I'm hoping for some serious automation and being able to seamlessly go from my office Amazon Echo.. "Alexa play pandora".. to getting in my car and saying "Alexa.. take me home." Or telling My Echo at home " Alexa, back the car out, set temperature to 65 degrees" and go outside in a...
