    Someone Opened the Door Manually

    No damage will be done. Just don't make it habit. Any time I have someone in my car who has never exited the vehicle before, I always let me them know ahead of time to simply press the button.

    Car Wash Mode - Instructions!

    The two years I've owned my car, I've never taken it to car wash or even one of those express wash places. Always wash it at home but this is great info for those that are a little scared to do it because they don't know how. Awesome stuff.

    Charging Adapters for new Delivery....

    Wow, really good to know.

    Charging Adapters for new Delivery....

    I think it may be safe to assume it comes with the J1772 and the standard 110 volt. Thanks everyone.

    Charging Adapters for new Delivery....

    I just checked the Tesla store and on the product page it says that it comes standard with every vehicle. Hopefully that is still true because it's currently out of stock.

    Charging Adapters for new Delivery....

    I've been looking everywhere for this but I cannot find the answer. Friend of mine just put a reservation in for a new Model 3 and I'm trying help her through the process of getting everything ready. However I cannot for the life of me find out what adapter are currently being included in with...

    Stat apps and services

    I don't know of any apps that currently do that or if it's even possible. I pretty much gave up on this app. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. It'll work for a few weeks recording everything, then it'll only record certain stats, and then a few weeks later it'll magically start...

    Hardware 3.0 Upgrade and Phone as Key Issues

    I have 2018 LR RWD (June 2018 Build) that I just got upgraded to the 3.0 hardware computer about two weeks. Ever since then I've been having all sorts of issues with using my phone as a key - currently using an iPhone 11 Pro Max. So I am unable to automatically open my car or drive it. As...

    HW3 differences that aren't AP function related

    I just got upgraded to 3.0 last Friday and here is what I noticed compared to 2.5... -When going into reverse, camera feed is almost instant. On 2.5 sometimes it would take 2-4 seconds. - A lot more accurate when it comes to identify traffic cones. Seems like 2.5 thought everything was a...

    Cabin overheat protection

    I used it for about a month and considering it's hot about 97% of the time out here in Southern California, it was always on. I was losing close to 10-15 miles a day. Just wasn't worth it for me. I have ceramic tint on my model 3 and it doesn't really do much for the cabin temp, I just vent...

    Can I load a 65” TV into my Model 3?

    I meant UHD, corrected myself in a later post. My apologies.

    Can I load a 65” TV into my Model 3?

    I'll need to remember to take pictures when I load my car next time ;) it wasn't completely flat. I had to slide it in and it was laying at a slight angle. My dad's house is about 5 mins from Best Buy so he didn't mind. I'll need to remember to take pictures when I load my car next time ;)...

    Can I load a 65” TV into my Model 3?

    I just bought a new LG 70" OLED and it fit fine. Obviously had to put the backseat down and had to give it a little nudge put it fit. But if you're that paranoid about it, just have it delivered.

    The handle most cars have over the passenger heads.

    For anyone who thinks ceramic coating isn't worth it

    I'm interested where you got this information as I have never heard of any "maintenance" sprays as you call it to maintain any ceramic coating. Before getting ceramic coating applied to my car, I never ran across this information whether it be my own research online or talking to different...

    "USB too slow for dash cam" error message

    I appreciate you not disagreeing with me haha. I guess it was my fault in not wording my response clearly enough. Going to an SSD or SD card definitely isn't a requirement, I meant to say people have seen less issues when switching from a USB to one of these other options. I tried 3 different...

    "USB too slow for dash cam" error message

    @enolam There are TONS of threads regarding this issue. Try the search function, I believe there was also a master thread somewhere. People have been having this very same issue since V10. The same thing was happening to me. I swapped my USB for a SSD and I haven't received the error...

    Sentry Mode - M3 - Excessive Drain 2019.36.2.4

    As others have mentioned, you didn't say how many hours it was parked so that definitely is a factor. When I use Sentry, I see about a loss of about 1mi per hour. And that's when no incidents occur. I think the drain is excessive because like you, I have a short commute so when I see a loss...

    Sentry Mode - M3 - Excessive Drain 2019.36.2.4

    Considering you parked at a different spot, were more events recorded this time? Due to the increase in activity, that could've let the car not fall asleep.

    MASTER THREAD: USB drives that work with Sentry and TeslaCam

    I've read many users on this forum have no issues with that drive. You should be good.

    Weekend service?

    This might vary depending on your local service center and what exactly you are trying to get "serviced". I scheduled an appointment (Mon-Friday) through the app for a tire rotation. A few days later I was contacted via text that taking my vehicle to the service center was not needed and that...

    USB Too Slow -TeslaCam

    That's definitely my biggest concern over the temp, however I did put an enclosure around it. I'll see how long it works, so far I haven't received any issues. Worst case i can go with a SSD.

    USB Too Slow -TeslaCam

    I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro that I just upgraded with an SSD. I removed the old HD and I am using that with a SATA to USB cable to connect to the car. Has been working perfectly. No more "Too Slow" error messages going on. I know there are many talking about extreme temperatures but here...

    EAP taken away without notice.

    Check your purchase agreement, it should clearly state what you paid for. Like others mentioned, if it's not on there, not much you can do about it. Their explanation of it being a trial isn't that far-fetched. I've read plenty of members stating they had certain features way past the trial...

    Foam inside tire to reduce noise

    I have the LR Rear wheel motor...those that have already replaced the tires with the same ones that came with the car, did those replacements also come with the foam?

    Charge SR to 100% every time?

    A SR is technically a software locked SR+ so charging to 100% shouldn't be an issue in the long wrong. You're gonna get a lot of conflicting reports an opinions though. A good rule of thumb, just charge to 90% unless you absolutely need the remaining 10%, in that case, charge to 100.

    Windshield Replacement Experiences

    This was back in April/May when I made the appt so it could be that things are a big different now. I simply called the service center and someone answered. Didn't do any thing extra to speak with a live human. By your comment, it seems like that might not be the case anymore.

    MASTER THREAD: USB drives that work with Sentry and TeslaCam

    For those that are getting that "too slow message", are you getting it every time you get into your vehicle? I get that message too but only about 25% of the time I get into the vehicle. I find it really strange that it works sometimes but not others. I know some have mentioned temperature or...

    Air Not Blowing on Face

    Goes directly through the steering wheel on mine. Maybe you should combine the stream (pinch in) and have it all towards you instead of spread out.

    Do you intentionally park next to other Teslas?

    I usually park as far away as possible...from any car. Funny when I come out and see another Tesla parked close to me which I imagine is doing the same thing

    I do not. I only use the service that's in the car.

    As of yesterday, ESPNLA as well as ESPN are both working for me now. Hopefully they start working for everyone else.

    AC odor removal and cleaning

    Had a service appointment today at the Buena Park SC for an unrelated issue. Told them about the smell coming from the vents when using the AC and the SA said it was a known problem that would be fixed via a firmware update. He said that when too much moisture is getting trapped, odors can...

    Easier to avoid speeding tickets in Tesla?

    This ^^^...it's impossible for cops to look at every car in front of them. But when they hear some loud engine roar, it'll definitely catch their attention.

    Upgrading My Phone - Will My M3 Recognize the New Phone?

    @Jweiner You'll have to set up your new phone again. Not sure if you're using Android or iOS, but I just changed iPhones a few weeks ago and I had to do the set up all over again. And that with doing an encrypted backup versus restoring from a non-encrypted backup. Just have your key card...

    Are my concerns legitimate ?

    I wouldn't be too worried about it. A lot of plastic pieces in any car can be dislodged when being kicked with a shoe (I'd probably omit that part to Tesla as the reason for it coming loose) and the visor should definitely not be breaking clean that easily. I'd schedule a service appt and...

    Cleaning M3 seats

    I keep non-scented baby wipes in the car in case something spills. A regular microfiber towel with slightly warm water works great too. When I'm doing a real deep clean, I use Chemical guys non-sense cleaner. Works really great...

    Are we supposed to tip mobile service?

    I've had only one experience with mobile service and I didn't tip. However I gave him a few water bottles during my tire rotation and a big gatorade for the road considering it was very hot out. He was pleasantly surprised when I gave them to him. Makes me wonder if other owner don't even...

    Taking my car to get PPF tonight, help me decide about tint ?

    The shop I went with gave me a really good deal because I did full frontal ppf, ceramic coating on the entire car, and then the ceramic tint. It was part of a group buy which meant I wasn't able to substitute any other brand. However after doing my research, I was more than comfortable going...

    Taking my car to get PPF tonight, help me decide about tint ?

    I definitely wish I would've gone either 20% or at least 25%. Even my wife said I should've gone darker. My fault for looking at samples in not so great lighting. I can definitely see clearly outside but I feel it's still way too clear looking in. Maybe I change my mind one day and end up...

    Size of USB drive needed for TeslaCam?

    Not really sure what your question is. I think you are referring to the size of the USB stick that's needed for TeslaCam. I do not believe there's a minimum size required. However the bigger the size, the better. Depending on how you use it, it can fill up rather quickly. At the very least...

    Nail in tire = Tesla or Discount Tire

    I definitely wouldn't go to the service center either but I definitely wouldn't go to just ANY tire shop. Just make sure they've worked on Teslas before. Even here in Los Angeles, before going with America's Tire, I called a few different local shops and they wouldn't even touch my car because...

    Nail in tire = Tesla or Discount Tire

    Discount Tire / America's Tire I believe are the same company. I took my car in early June for a nail and they removed it and patched it up no problem. They never gave me a price or anything, it didn't really matter considering I needed it to be fixed prior to a road trip I was going to that...

    ESPN Los Angeles on Tune-In not working

    Same. It's been a few weeks since I tried using it and yesterday I tried again, still nothing. Looks like i'm stuck listening to Dan Patrick commercials. Considering it hasn't been fixed by now, I doubt it'll ever get fixed.
