    The Best way to improve your Model 3 Trunk Lighting

    Trying to find something in the trunk of your Model 3 at night is difficult at best. The LED lighting is just too dim to really illuminate the trunk completely. I toyed with the idea of replacing the trunk LED with a higher wattage LED, but I came upon a solution that cost me $13 and took me 10...

    New 2020- Frunk Poor Panel Alignment

    Didn't totally eliminate the problem, but it looks much better now after the adjustment. Thanks for the great tip!

    New 2020- Frunk Poor Panel Alignment

    If you do the "finger test" by running your finger along the seam, the trunk lid is definitely higher than the seam with the bumper fascia on the driver side.

    New 2020- Frunk Poor Panel Alignment

    Just took delivery on a 2020 Model 3. Very obvious and noticeable frunk mis-alignment. This may be indicative of poor quality control inspection on the assembly line. In my mind, this should have been noticed and corrected BEFORE being shipped to dealer, or released to the consumer. I brought...

    Electrician recs for northern new Jersey

    Capital Electric in Elmwood Park. (Ask for Jason). 201-857-0256. Knows all about Tesla Charging and does very clean work. Cost will depend on the distance from your circuit breakers to where you want the plug or charger installed. I didn't buy the Tesla charger and went for a ChargePoint charger...

    TeslaFi Sleep Settings with Stats

    I use the first check box option in TeslaFi. It allows my car to sleep soundly at night and had increased my range stats dramatically but reducing Phantom loss to zero while sleeping. Sentry mode keeps my car “idling” at work, but I’d rather have the protection of monitoring the car in my...

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    NYC MTA Crossings (especially the RFK Triboro Bridge) continue to be an issue no matter where you mount your EZ Pass Tag. When I started this post, I had mounted the large external tag that is meant for above the license plate mounting inside of the nosecone. That worked everywhere except for...

    TuneIn not recognizing account info

    I got exactly the same response when I called the very helpful tech support people at TuneIn. They say that it is a Tesla problem and that Tesla can easily fix it. Many of us have also called Tesla and reported the issue. For Tesla to tell you that they haven't been notified of the issue with...

    TuneIn not recognizing account info

    Mark, it really IS necessary (at least for some of us): 1) There is no in-car "Search" feature for TuneIn such as the one in Slacker. If you want to listen to a favorite Podcast, like the excellent "Ride the Lightning" Tesla podcast, you first need to search for it using your TuneIn on your...

    2.18.77 did NOT fix the TuneIn login failure issues, bummer.

    TuneIn not recognizing account info

    2016- Model S: I have a TuneIn Account and have heard that you can use your computer to store "Favorites", like the 2 Tesla Podcasts, in your account and then have these "Favorites" display on the Tesla screen. When I attempt to enter my TuneIn username and password in the Settings area of...

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    UPDATE After originally starting this thread with the suggestion that an EZ Pass (NY/NJ) could be successfully placed on the windshield (2016 Model S) to the right of the rearview mirror on the black painted area of the windshield, I have to report that this position only was working about...

    Such a great car... Why such crappy floor mats?

    The quality of the supplied Tesla floor mats is terrible. They are thin and are a cheap afterthought on such a well appointed vehicle. The front mats on My brand new, Model S 90D already have started to curl at the edges of the mat closest to the seats. The Velcro that holds these mats in place...

    "Blind Spot Detection is disappointing"

    I have to agree with Artin's post: the blind spot detection is useless in moving traffic. It seems like that is the general flavor of this thread. Though this is not justification for an obviously flawed warning system, at least it explains why the service people at Tesla tells me: "they all do...

    Kman's Tesla Videos

    Is there a way to revert back to normal since my 90 D seems to always default to a 70?

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    I was cautioned in all of my previous vehicles NEVER to mount an EZ Pass behind the painted or dotted portion of the windshield, but then none of those cars had a metallic windshield.

    EZ Pass Mounting- Problem Solved

    I was looking for a good place to mount my EZ Pass on my 2016 Model S. There were multiple threads here about the problems with the metallic windshield on the car. On my car, there is a black painted rectangular area immediately to the right of the rear view mirror mount. I used the smaller EZ...

    "Blind Spot Detection is disappointing"

    After almost getting creamed tonight in a lane change (not on autopilot) to the left, I am beginning to get the impression that the blind spot detection system on my 2016 Tesla Model S 90D is not nearly as proactive as the side mirror-based warning systems for other cars. On my previous car, a...
