    Anyone LR AWDs Showing 322 Miles Fully Charged?

    I'm August '18. Getting 290. It's not enough to be a problem yet, but getting pretty close to a warranty claim if it keeps dropping.

    Rain-X for camera lenses?

    Yep. It works great. The backup camera always holds water and rain x usually works for a couple months although sometimes it leaves a little rainbow effect (not a big deal).

    Trade in price upon purchase different from online quote

    I second this... They were so easy to deal with, I made an extra 30% on my sale by going through them when I got my M3 and the whole process was so simple.

    For AWD owners wanting a P3D-

    Imagine waiting 2+ years and paying $61,500 like I did. So pissed.

    Is the current NoA helpful or harmful?

    Respectfully, I haven't been able to use NOA successfully in the DC Area on the major highways. I think it probably does a great job in some areas, but it is harmful and puts me in harms way in this area. I appreciate everything regular AutoPilot can do and does, but NOA is not ready for...

    Screen blanking and re-booting while driving

    Yeah... this is the first time since I've owned me 3 that the software has been utter junk. There is no rush to fix it either. I've had it for weeks, and called Tesla immediately after this started happening, and a fix was coming "any day now". Really disappointing.

    Aftermarket sound deadening batting for Model 3 door panels?

    Looking at their site, they have kits specifically for your needs. not just car audio.

    Aftermarket sound deadening batting for Model 3 door panels?

    You can try dynamat. it's a sound dampener designed for car audio but would do the same here.

    Might be returning AWD 3 (advice request)

    The car uses more energy till it warms up. Try charging up until about 20-30 mins before he leaves and he’ll see better results.

    No temporary turn signal on latest software

    Interesting. I'm running 2019.5.15 and I don't see the option anymore though in the menus. I'm pretty sure that was previously in the menus, but I will inquire as to whether the turn stalk is the actual problem.

    No temporary turn signal on latest software

    All, does anyone have any idea why Tesla decided to make the turn signals continuous only? It used to be you could configure the car to have a light touch to the turn signal would have three blinks. Now it's continuous and I don't see a place to change it. It's a minor but very frustrating...

    POLL: Changes in feeling toward Tesla

    Or..... We could just buy a BMW i3,i4, the new Audis, the new Mercedes, the new Jag, Polestar, the Nissan Leaf, the Kia or Hyundai options, etc. The alternative isn't what you described, it's simply a competitor. Or, if you read what I wrote, it could be simply to let Tesla get settled on...

    POLL: Changes in feeling toward Tesla

    Look, I don't mind some price changes of $500, $1k or even $2k here or there. I actually think the changes to AP are logical, and it's exactly what I would've done (before the launch). With that said, I bought my Model 3 and received it in September (reserved in March '16). Not even 6 mos...

    Model 3 grind sound from wheels

    There was a glitchy brake shield that they replaced for me when this happened to my car. It kept getting worse to the point I wasn't sure it was drivable. They replaced the shield on all four of my wheels.

    I got it 2 nts ago but have been out of town so couldn’t test it. It’s definitely rolling out.

    Scratches on Windshield!

    I have the same thing..... I you can take a polishing compound and smooth them out. It's annoying it came that way, but it's fairly minor.

    Anyone know anything about this brand? Looks like a knockoff of the Nomad: Wireless Phone Charger / Pad for Tesla Model 3

    It definitely supports HTML5. I did a webex on Friday on the web brower, and had it call my cell phone (so no audio needed via the browser).

    Mine originally worked flawlessly. I upgraded to IOS12 and update 36.2 around the same time.... Since then I've had a number of problems like yours (especially annoying when it's been raining)

    iPhone XS (Max) as a key

    2018.34.1 Won't let me launch my car into objects

    My 3D got this update and has similar issues. When driving down an unmarked road and there's cars or trucks parallel parked on my right it sees them as obstacles jumping out. Several false alarms the last couple days. Both in my neighborhood, my brother's neighborhood and once on a fairly...

    Auto windshield wipers first experience in Oregon - they suck!

    When I got my car it was on 2018.28.x it's now on 2018.35.x and it's MUCH better. I initially had the same opinion, but I believe some recent enhancements made them a lot better.

    20" Performance (P3D+) Wheels & Tires for SALE

    Actually, that's not true. Tesla's price includes the Suspension modification and installation. The $3,150 doesn't. Also, Tesla sells these wheels stand alone for $600/ wheel.

    Costa Mesa Delivery blows and so does the Model 3 quality...

    I am not saying that the Tesla Paint is either bad or good. What I will say is this video measures the thickness, not the softness or overall quality of the paint. That's an important distinction, because that has been the primary complaint.

    Just got 20" performance wheels installed on my Model 3!

    This may be the wrong group to post in so I'm sorry if so. I called and inquired about just buying the wheels (no tires or install, etc.) for the 20 and 19 inch variants. The 20s were A LOT more expensive. One thing they shared is that there are two different types of wheels offered in 19s...

    FilmSource Ashburn, and ProShield, Inc. both have very competitive prices if you just want to do wrapping. Both of them are in the $1,600 range for full front wrap (including full hood, mirrors, bumper, etc.).

    Group Buy Poll for Mono-Block Forged Alloy Wheels by Titan

    How do we feel these compare to the Ambit FC20 and FC10s which are about half the price? I was looking at these and they offer the 20 inch for $1059 for a set of 4 shipped. I am definitely interested, but honestly not as informed about the differences... just been paying attention largely to...

    Savini 20 inch wheels on my Model 3

    Wow... Interesting.... I'm going for the AWD, so already supposedly taking a hit. 15% is substantial. Thanks for the feedback.

    Have you seen any noticeable range loss from the 20s? How substantial?

    Not all RWD Model S 75s got the speed bump. Some are stuck at 5+ seconds.

    Painters tape for front end?

    Another option that certainly won't interfere with the sensors is simply washing the car after the roadtrip. I mean it's a $50-$60k car.

    Black on Black P AWD vs Any Colour on white with Non P AWD & $ savings

    I had an order in for a P3D like you (black on black w/o PUP). I test drove the RWD yesterday, and determined it's VERY fast as is, and the AWD will be even more so. I also realized the tires on the 18 inch are definitely lacking so I dropped to an AWD w/ white seats and upgraded wheels that...

    Model 3 Performance Test Drives

    This frankly kinda pisses me off. The more I see it, the more I feel like I paid $11k for a software update and nothing more. That's a lot of money and I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. They need to be more forthcoming with details if they're going to offer something for sale...

    EAP Users- Is it worth $5k?

    See, I was at the top of my range but decided to go for the performance Model 3. In my mind, I'm paying that much to drive the car, and enjoy driving it. If/ when FSD ever fully arrives, they can have my money. But till then, I can drive and enjoy driving.

    Model 3 AWD / Performance - lower UDDS Range!

    Chill out. This isn’t the complete data yet. Get the full picture before getting pissy. We get it you waited a while for your car (like everyone else) but wait till all the information comes out and make a decision. BTW, they promised 310 miles, this test shows well over 400.

    After Market Shop in NoVA

    If you're going to do one or the other... Definitely do Ceramic over wrapping is what my detailer told me. Wrapping is nice, but if you haven't had a problem with previous cars with chipping and such, you likely won't have it for this car. If you do, it will cost about $700 to repair which is...
