    Any recommendations for e-scooter for frunk?

    I bought a small scooter initially. It didn’t quite fit the frunk. It was only 15 lbs. Later I bought an EUC.There’s a learning curve, but it’s more practical and 10x the fun. I carry it in the trunk wherever I go. Just a thought...

    TeslaCam issues (mid 2020)

    Get an SSD external drive. Was having issues with the regular USB drives. After switching to an SSD drive, I couldn’t be happier. Haven’t run into any issue so fat. Viewing videos is snappier as well.

    Error message: “Autopilot Safety/Convenience Features Unavailable”

    Had similar issue for the past 2 months. Autopilot and visualization disappeared for a day or two and started to work again. Read on the forum that it’s related to sentry mode and the USB drive. Replaced my usb stick with an SSD drive. It appeared to help, but the issue came back a few days...

    Full self driving capability

    As others have stated, get range before FSD even though you THiNK you don’t need the extra range now.

    Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control (BETA) for those that have HW3 and FSD

    It works quite well; however I only use it when wife’s not in the car. I hope they’ll lift the speed limit in future update. Currently, it’s too slow when there are cars behind you.

    There are too many people with nothing to loose attitude around my area. It's best not to provoke them. ;)

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    Save TeslaCam clips on honk Hopefully this can be activated via voice command. With the amount of road rage, especially here in CA, don’t want to unintentionally trigger this since all you want to do is to save a few clips.

    Right Pillar Camera Blocked or Blinded

    You have to pull over right away to observe it. It evaporates pretty quick. I have a feeling that the latest version is more sensitive now.

    Right Pillar Camera Blocked or Blinded

    Same error on my 3, with the latest version. I pulled over right away and did observe condensation.

    Finally happened. Bumped rear wheel on a turn. Fixable?

    Had similar curb rash last year. I had it fix for 60.00. It looked just like new. Mine was done by Onsite Wheels in Garden Grove, ca.

    My two biggest problems with the cybertruck

    Is there any concern with the truck being super hot since the body is stainless steel? I would imagine that you wouldn't want to touch it after it's been baking under the sun for a few hours.

    This truck design had better be a joke....

    It’s a nice looking truck, and it ended there. Nothing too excited about it. Model S - when I first saw it, I wanted one, but it was too expense. Model X - it’s nice, but I still preferred the S. Model 3 - the exterior was nice, but i didn’t like the plainness of the dash. After driving my 3...

    New Model 3 Owner. FSD worth it or not?

    I would put that $$ towards the extra battery before considering FSD.

    Feature request - Locking glove box?

    Yes!!!! I’ve been asking for this. I’ve been putting my wallet in there whenever I visit the gym. I feel a little more secure if it requires a pin to open.

    Are the side windows too small?

    OP doesn’t like TM3 windows and is looking to see if others feel the same. Unfortunately no one has agreed with him.

    I don’t think it’s version specific. It had occurred with prior versions. On some bad days, it refuses to play. it’s a backend issue.

    Do You Miss Your Model S?

    Had a model s loaner for 2 weeks. It’s a nice car, but I like the 3 much better. The 3 is much more fun to drive. The interior felt more spacious and less cluttered.

    Is it worth $3k for FSD for EAP owners

    I’m planning to keep the car for 10+ years. Main reason is HW3. I bought it at 2k though. Yes for me then. At 3k, I’ll probably toss a coin.

    PSA: CAREFUL--Autopilot sudden braking

    I haven’t experience this for a long time, at least 6+ months. I have my car distance at 6. I wonder if this is a factor with the phantom brake.

    2019 pre-raven MS75D or M3 LR?

    I just had a model s 75d loaner recently for 2 weeks. I couldn’t wait to get back to my m3 LR. It felt bloated. It’s bigger, but not that spacious. The trunk is nice, but everything else, I prefer my 3. I hate driving, but with the 3, it’s totally different. My 2c. Good luck!

    Noise in AC Vents

    My daughter accidentally dropped a small object about the size of a tic tac through the rear vent. I tried to remove it with various methods, include using a vacuum to suck it out. I had to bear it for a good two weeks. The sound was so annoying each time the car accelerated. I was about to tear...

    Outer rim scratched. Help.

    Looks like you’re in LA. Search for onsite wheels in yelp. Location is in Orange County. I had similar curb rash to yours. He fixed it for 60.00. It looked like new afterward. It took about 30 mins.

    Model 3 - window plastic seal issue

    Mine had similar issues when I took delivery in April 2018, and I didn’t notice it after a few weeks later. Scheduled with SC and they used a heat gun to fix it. It’s not perfect, but it’s less noticeable.

    Unstable on 2019.12.1.2

    Mine hang and crashed daily. I have dashcam and have been listening music from my usb drive recently as well. I’ll remove my music usb drive tomorrow to see if that’ll make a difference. It’s good to know that others have similar issue. It’s a software issue rather than hardware. Thank you for...

    What you’re getting into? Think carefully of getting an EV, especially a Tesla. The chance that you’ll go back to a regular car is slim to none. I’ll let others respond to your questions as I’m on a phone. Good luck with your future 3.

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    I'm pretty sure a different team (non AP) work on these fun stuff. Likely, it's a smaller team. I wouldn't want these developers to work on AP as it's not their specialty. The AP team could slow down and fix the issues that you mentioned, but they're at a race with other competitors to be the...

    FSD refund attempt: Tesla rep is lying

    I want a refund too. I bought a car with 310 miles of range, now it’s 325! I didn’t ask for dashcam, sentry mode, NoA and those Artari games. They continue to shove new stuff to my car every month! I want a refund!

    Model 3 demand question

    I rembember standing in line on the day of the reservation and thinking to myself - I must have been in the wrong profession. There were quite a few people in their 20’s who were planning to buy a $40K+ car. I wouldn’t even dream Of paying for anything over 30K, especially for a car at such a...

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    So how much did Tesla raise through this discount period? Let’s assume that 50K people have activated either AP and/or FSD and the avg price is 3000. They just pocketed a $150 mil easily.

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    From a business standpoint it doesn’t make sense for them not to honor the hw3 upgrade. The CEO had stated multiple times that they would. Let’s assume the hardware is 500 and the time to service it is another 500. They’re still ahead $1K easily. In addition, they’ll get thousands of free beta...

    Don't buy FSD for $2k more. [from 2019 - FSD upgrade not available for 2k at this time]

    I have faith that they will upgrade. It will piss a lot of people if Tesla / Elon doesn’t honor it. It would be my last Tesla if that’s the case.

    Was doing that for the last 3 days. FOMO got me. G/L with your dilemma. I’m pretty sure you’ll pull the trigger.
