    Worth an SC visit?

    I'll consider myself lucky then, thanks everyone!

    Model 3 Tires, Tire Sizes, Types, make / model recommendations, tire discussions, etc

    Unfortunately quite far from any of their locations and I don’t think they ship them directly (so that I could have mobile service install them). Am I mistaken?

    Worth an SC visit?

    As you can see, there is an ever so slight raise in the panel next to the head light. it is barely noticeable in person. Is this something I should take to the service center/will they fix it?

    Model 3 Tires, Tire Sizes, Types, make / model recommendations, tire discussions, etc

    OK, so the Pilot Sport All Season 4 seem out of stock everywhere. Is there any other All Season alternative that will fit on the Model 3 Performance 20 inch Uber Turbines that I am somehow overlooking on Tirerack/Discount Tire? Not interested in buying new wheels/prefer an All Season to avoid...

    2021 Tesla Model 3 Performance All Season Tires?

    Anyone try these yet with the Uberturbines? Planning on pulling the trigger soon. Also, Tesla still doing the mobile service where they come out and swap them out for you? PILOT SPORT ALL SEASON 4 - SIZE: 235/35ZR20...

    What do current leaseholders do at lease end?

    Ah I didn’t realize no one has really had this issue yet. Let’s hope they put some process in place for folks who want to just lease a new Tesla but not be left with a gap between cars.

    Elon Tweeted " all 3 / y can be upgraded to have FSD computer"?

    OK I might be dense but is he saying I have to purchase FSD to get the new UI on my 2021 Model 3? Because that would really suck...

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Reviving an old thread...anyone have any other options for a Model 3 Performance other than the Michelin Alpin if you just want a 20 inch all-season tire on the Uberturbines that come with the car? It looks like the AS3+ was discontinued but I haven't seen a replacement...

    What do current leaseholders do at lease end?

    I have more than 2.5 years left on my lease for Model 3 Performance, but the delivery process was, as everyone knows, not the greatest with constantly changing dates. How does one manage that dynamic if they are on a lease with a current Tesla, and they just want to lease a new Tesla before...

    Tesla went haywire this afternoon [ re opening frunk, screen going black]

    Yeah, that had to have been it. It's been now driving for several weeks without a single problem. Learned my lesson...

    How do people leasing cars deal with the wait

    What does lease end look like for Tesla? If I want to lease another one, do they basically let me make the switch when the new one comes in? Given they basically deliver cars at the end of each quarter, wondering if this is going to be a pain in three years.

    Tesla went haywire this afternoon [ re opening frunk, screen going black]

    That's what I was thinking because I cleaned the screen. But that's pretty crazy. It was completely dry. So it was just whatever residue was on the screen from me cleaning it.

    Tesla went haywire this afternoon [ re opening frunk, screen going black]

    So I was sitting outside a store with the car on waiting for my wife when all of a sudden the frunk opened itself while parked. It then kept reopening the frunk after I got out to shut it. I even noticed the latch for the frunk kept moving when I opened it (jiggering back and forth), suggesting...

    What is this? Pink residue on undercarriage

    The other problem is this panel detached after driving the other day. I was able to snap back into place so I could drive home but it still looks somewhat off, as you can see. I put in a request at SC but can’t get in until next week of course. I have a long trip this weekend planned - think it...

    Phew! Thank you!

    What is this? Pink residue on undercarriage

    Just ran my finger over it. Definitely not runny - it was hard, like if you felt glue that had dried up. Any idea? It's definitely concerning seeing this under the car. It's on both sides.

    What is this? Pink residue on undercarriage

    So I was taking a picture because the bottom panel of my 2021 Model 3 performance popped up (another issue I need to have fixed), and noticed this. What is this residue underneath the car? Is this a problem?

    Thanks - looks like they don't come in the right 20 inch size yet.

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Does anyone know if the Pilot Sport all seasons were discontinued? They were out of stock a few weeks ago and now not even listed on tire rack. Seems like now the only choice that fit the uberturbine rims are the Alpins, which are way more expensive.

    SOFTWARE UPDATE

    Very frustrating. Same thing - key functionality seems to be working fine (although not before a reconnect) but won't connect to bluetooth automatically. Is this something the Service Center can address?
  21. J

    SOFTWARE UPDATE

    Gah. I updated last night, and now my phone Bluetooth won’t auto connect, although it will still let me unlock when I walk up to it. Any idea guys? It was working perfectly before update.

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Darn - out of stock. Oh well, I can wait a bit. It seems like these might be better than the Alpin, but these Tirerack reviews are always so subjective.

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Hey everyone - This is the right one to buy if I go with the MICHELIN Pilot Sport all seasons, right? Looks like they are sold out in multiple spots...

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Yeah I agree - it's just more the temperature thing with the stock Pirellis. Which Michelins did you put on? unfortunately the Michelin pilot sport a/s 3+ 235/35zr20 are out of stock on TireRack. :(

    Looking for some straight answers on Model 3 Performance Tires

    Thanks for the info - I'm considering these 20 inch with the uberturnbines. How is your efficiency? Did it improve road noise over the stock tire?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Still waiting on update on M3, but seems normal given the VIN. Do we have any sense of when V11 might come out? It seems like the new Model S will have to have it upon delivery, but I don't know if Tesla typically moves the whole fleet to a new software at the same time.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I always found it difficult to find examples of what to be looking for that seems off with the panels, so for anyone's future reference, this is what I'm hoping to get fixed on the passenger door (first pic) on Thursday. The other door on the passenger side seems alright to me, but not perfect...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    What’s everyone’s view on the temp guidance for the Pirelli tires? I am taking the car into service on Thursday to get a few things addressed and we are of course getting some cold temps then that will dip a bit below 45 degrees. Wondering if I should reschedule or if it’ll be fine.

    That’s how mine looks and I understand it’s normal

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Yeah other side basically doesn’t look bunched up in the corner. Fairly minor thing but I’ll have them take a look

    Hey everyone this window stripping looks like it needs to be fixed right? It’s not flush. Shouldn’t take long?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Car arrived today. Will post more tomorrow...but speechless. No panel gap/paint issues, minor headlight adjustment on the left hand side. But I went in cold from a BMW to the Model 3 and I am truly shocked by the quality of the interior and the drive, having driven a 4 series for 6+ years...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Can I just say 9am to 6pm is a ridiculous waiting time

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Was scheduled for Sunday but car came early and getting tomorrow. Tesla also switched me to home delivery instead of pickup. VA

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Seems like Tesla often gets these cars in early, I wonder if they’ll bump me up.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I'm scheduled to pick up 3/28, but for a litany of reasons, it'd be easier if I could pick up on 3/27 but supposedly the car doesn't arrive until this evening per whoever I'm talking to on the text thread. Worth pinging them again in case it arrives earlier than expected off the truck? I feel...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Does anyone know when your app changes before delivery? Mine still on the “welcome to the Tesla family” screen so was wondering when it changes over.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Pretty impressed. Order 2/27. Vin 914 by 3/4. Delivery appointment 3/28. VA. Now let's just hope the car is fine! I'm a bit anxious!

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    For the folks who took delivery, what’s the 0-60 like? Is it there when you need it or am I going to be driving this thing into trees in the neighborhood?

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I don’t think that’s true. I ordered on 2/27, got a vin March 4, and now have a new ETA of 3/25 to 3/31. East coast.
  43. J

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    In case helpful I’ve had my VIN since March 5. Called Tesla today because my SA just doesn’t answer. He looked it up and said the car is still in the factory but anticipates I will probably take delivery within 17 days.
  44. J

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    I’ve had a vin since March 5 but still no update. I guess I thought VIN meant delivery was within a week. Any thoughts guys?
  45. J

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Honestly I’m just kind of pissed. What’s the deal here? Are all the folks with March deliveries just the new folks who have been waiting since November? feels like a bait and switch to be honest.
  46. J

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    What is the deal with them? They don’t answer and have like no answers.
  47. J

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    It's weird to me I received a VIN within a week of ordering, and then I still have the 3-5 week timeline on my page without any dates.

    Picking up Model 3 Today - What is worthy of a reject?

    Anyone have any good videos or checklists of what to run through on delivery day? I feel pretty confident as I’m picky but don’t want to miss anything.
