    2018 Model 3 Heat Broken After Installing 2022.44

    Checking in. Contributing one more data point. 2018 Model 3 LR RWD (RC/SOP) failed today as well. Tesla Service recommend a Low Voltage Circuit Integrity Check ($210) which is odd, wasn't PTC belongs to the high voltage system.

    Ontario Buyers: Green Plates vs Normal Plates

    I speculate green plate will stay for a while, the new plate still not available/designed for custom plates/red ambassador plate etc.... So the original manufacture line must still be open for quite a while. Mr Ford don't have a reason to axe it for now (cost saving bullshit), but of course he...

    Cost to Import from US? Possible? Not worth it?

    Correct, they used to do Roadster modification from US specs to Canada. However, since Model S they now did explicitly said they no longer do specs conversion. I doubt they will make exception. Although hardware wise, Model 3 specs is compliant with both US and Canada. I beleive all those...

    V10 in Canada - what will it come with?

    In Ontario, Highway Traffic Act does not apply to parking lots so should not be a regulatory issue in Ontario. But at least in BC and Alberta, vehicle still need to follow laws in parking lot. Elon also said they are working very hard to bring smart summon to all region months ago. So let there...

    New solution from China owner, it was believed that high humidity is causing the sensor to miscalibrate. To re-calibrate: 1) Press the accelerator pedal hard few times when you are in PARK 2) Put your toe behind the pedal and pull it towards you few times Many people report the issue goes away...

    Turo expands in Canada

    Turo does have their insurance to cover damage by renter, not sure how well or how comprehensive the coverage is. But it is there if something goes wrong. You MUST let your insurance know and ASK for their PERMISSION to rent out the vehicle. Otherwise your insurance might refuse to insure your...

    At low speeds Model 3 is too quiet [Update: now solved with new pedestrian warning sounds]

    Model 3 already reserved space for the Audible Vehicle Alert System as required by law (in some states/countries) in the future. It could be easily installed by Mobile Service. Definitely cool if Elon let us customize it!

    Model 3 Standard Range (Canada) Range: 150km

    Correct, when Tesla software lock 60 on 75kwh car. You could get high Supercharge rate until the very end of the software limit. Tesla software would also balance the cell automatically, it will use every cell available. So theoretically the life span of the battery should be even higher than...

    5% increase in power

    That's correct. According to some early owner and YouTube channel "Engineering Explained", Tesla limit the initial acceleration (torque) on the permanent magnet rear motor to ensure a smooth acceleration (due to the unique characteristic of the motor). Some owner said the early...

    Is it possible to sue the government in Small Claims Court? If possible, I would definitely try, just cost $100 bucks even the chances is slim (we don’t technically have a agreement with MOT). Submit your EVHIP application even if you get your delivery after July 11. See what they say.

    Model 3 3D Maxpider Floor Mats

    IMO 3D Maxpider is the best looking floor mats that is currently available for Model 3. Just a little pricey compare to other brand, is it worth the price?

    Do aware that Ombudsman can only make suggestion, government can choose not to accept Ombudsman's suggestion. Ombudsman is like an ammo, but not a gun. Of course, we are still hoping/assuming Ford's government still know what SHAMEFUL mean.

    No idea how things works in Tesla. Why many early reservations still don't get their VIN. It seems they choose to deliver vehicle that paid by Cash first (same in US). Tesla Model 3 buyers are feeling Tesla’s new quest for profit

    My ISA said tons of vehicles arrived in Ontario in the week of July 11. Lawrence location are delivering 8-15 vehicles per day (I heard), assume Oakville same: 10*8*2 = around 160 to 300 vehicles affected until today + many many reservation. Thanks for your work!

    Some thoughts: We all signed the SAME OMVIC regulated contracts as other customers buying from the dealership. How could the government just suddenly create a new definition for dealership that is different from OMVIC? ON Ministry Of Transportation is PUNISHING customers buying directly from...

    Should we No, at this moment all Tesla delivery after July 11 will not be eligible for the incentive. Not very optimistic MOT will change the rule. BTW Join the letter writing campaign to the ministry of transportation!

    Stories of your Model 3 phone-as-a-key FAILURES, give us a FOB, Tesla!!!

    I guess it is more like a compatibility issue with old phone and phone's Bluetooth signal is more easily jammed. "A Bluetooth receiver in a cellular phone can also be blocked by the cellular phone transmitter. Typical Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM) cellular phone transmitters...

    Stories of your Model 3 phone-as-a-key FAILURES, give us a FOB, Tesla!!!

    Hmm, Bluetooth is not that reliable from day one. Device often don't talk to each other because of various reason. Older phone especially have more trouble communicating with the car because of the outdated Bluetooth version. Although Bluetooth LE is much better then previous generation...

    Is the Tesla service centre at Lawrence/DVP in Toronto not a delivery centre?

    Yes, Lawrence is a service center and delivery location. Your ISA will contact you to confirm your delivery location (or you say hi to them when you get your VIN).

    Waiting patiently for delivery but nothing..

    They must have something wrong with their payment system. All of my credit cards won't work on their website. I email them a week ago, no replies. End up using my friend's credit card that don't need address verification, and it WORKED! So strange...

    June 20. It appears my car just sat on the Fremont parking lot for two weeks! I got email on June 21 said it is ready to ship, but my DS said my car is still in California two days ago. :(

    Waiting patiently for delivery but nothing..

    I don't think so, I heard Tesla only had the IC site until June. I got my VIN two weeks ago but still no delivery day, but Tesla already contacted me asking for my preference Oakville vs Lawrence.

    Model 3 Canada

    ' I live in Toronto. My priority list for the option will be ->AWD first You get 5% range increase (~20 km), better handling during winter, faster acceleration, plus you will get your car in mid 2018. I guess it would be a very popular option in Canada. ->premium upgrade next I like what's...

    Model 3 Canada

    I think Model 3 premium package is a bargain. If you want to get all those options in Model S few years ago, it is going to cost you >$10000 USD. I consider the glass roof, phone docking station, premium audio, heated seats/mirrors as essentials. The glass roof gives you more head room and sense...
