I got it yesterday evening. My score was 99 for about 4 days before the update, and 98 for couple of weeks. No emails, when I checked in the evening yesterday it was downloading. Installed and took it for a ride. Sentry Mode remote view did not show up, not sure if that needs mobile app update...

Is there any improvements in Road rumble on rough road patches? My 2018 Model 3 LR is pretty quiet (not much wind noise), but the rough concrete roads like I-5 in Seattle area, the rumble and roar of the road noise via the body is unbearable above 50MPH. On Smoother tarmac, my car is blissfully...

Thanks for sharing your work and results. I had suspicion that the noise/drumming sound we are hearing in the cabin on rougher patches is because of transmission of vibration from Suspension. I wish some 3rd Party making strut mount vibration isolation.

Finally picked up my M3 15k VIN with FSD upgrade. Camera Calibration is done very quickly, less than 5 miles (10mins) auto pilot was available. Haven't driven a lot yet, and did not observe any changes as of now yet. I had to setup my Bluetooth and wifi connection. I thought those are on MCU...

Mine also says retrofit with Electrical wiring. My guess is initial/Early builds needs that wiring. Also that may be the reason early build got this retrofit little later than newer builds. This is what invoice says for my 15K VIN car. Concern: Full Self-Driving Car Computer Retrofit (Model 3)...

I gave my M3 with 15K range VIN for FSD upgrade along with Charge Port error keep popping up on the screen about touch not working. My Experience at Lynnwood Service Center: This is first time I went to this Lynnwood Service center. I tried to reach them to drop off previous night as I did not...

I completely agree. The OEM Michelin 18in tires are pathetic on wet roads. Slight acceleration on wet roads, these tires will spin, and I am very cautious with these tires when road is wet and increase my distance considerably. I do not remember any tires in recent memory being this bad when...

In general brake sensor/switch on most cars (irrespective of Tesla or not) turn on brake lights the moment brake pedal moves from rest position. This is done for safety reasons, a few mm movement of brake pedal lights up brake lights even before any force is applied on brake master cylinder to...

Yeah, unfortunately that is my observation too. Disagree/agree should be applicable to just that post.

I see what you did.. lol :rolleyes: childish stuff. Since I disagree with this statement, you go thru my posts and mark all as disagreed irrespective of that post is relevant or not, even for a question? Wow!Wow!.

I was about to respond.. then I saw your title.."Only partially psycho" ....:D

Thanks for info. I am not getting the logic/formula of who is getting this early. Obviously its not VIN number based. May be all these are Performance versions? Performance was released later, and had higher VINs. May be that's why many with Lower VIN did not receive in Seattle Area as too...

My VIN is in 15k range(Early May 2018), and two of my appointment requests for HW3 upgrade are cancelled saying Hardware is not received for my car. This is in Seattle Area. Not sure if anyone from Seattle area got this upgrade done.

Hope the will be able to comeback with some decent design and decent price.

It good we are getting aero cover options. I am not fan of the looks, I feel these do not look any better than standard aero covers. Curbrash protection, how it is going to protect? Instead of rim edge it is going to be cover and still rash will be visible. Also another thing, why the center...

Any one from Seattle Area got HW3 upgrade done? I scheduled an appointment, but got a message from Tesla Service saying "Hardware 3 retrofits are being shipped to us in waves for specific customers in queue and yours is not currently available. Once we receive yours you will be contacted to...

Thanks for sharing your experience. I do think if we switch over to softer compound tires, it will reduce some noise. But based on test above by buddhra, it seems Tire pressure alone did not make any difference in noise on the rougher roads. It is counter intuitive as ride becoming smoother on...

I have similar thoughts on road noise. Instead of trying to apply sound damper/insulation to fender wells and cabin, if we can address by reducing the transfer from suspension to unibody(structure), it will take care of road noise. Please do let us know your discoveries and anything you come...

Can you not change the mode before entering the Car wash to standard or Creep? Instead of selecting Car wash mode, you could select Standard or creep mode.

I agree with McMoo. FSD is not important, and unless you have spare cash lying around, do not spend on that. Realistic usable software is much further away. Disclaimer: I did buy when it went on sale this year for EAP users( for $2k). But again I don't pay with loans for these kind of things.

Is this live on Amazon yet?

Nice! Where are the going on Amazon prime?

That really sucks, and at minimum they should have informed you and fixed the issue them selves. Did you contact Safe-lite?

That is great news! Then I will get it in a day once launched. Please do let us know/provide link on Amazon once it is available. Thanks

Oh, ok. Nevermind. I thought we have up to 700mA left over and hoping that is suffice for USB Thumb drive and game controller. Thanks!

That is looks nice! Also wondering if it is possible to make it a USB hub and 1 charge port. Like 2 or 3 USB data ports, and one charge port. With all game controllers coming in, we might need more than 2 USB ports (Dash cam USB drive, music USB drive, 2 game controllers). So total having...

Thanks for update Navak!

Is there a new version available now?

Thanks for the update. Just Ordered one. I do not want full size controller in the car for occasional use and this fits the bill!

That is nice choice, but disappointing even that one did not fit in frunk or trunk well..:( I wish for RWD cars, they could make frunk bigger..

Pretty much most spares are M rated, but limited to 50MPH. I had same hope when I saw Modern Spare advertising 80MPH (looks they took out that now?). But after checking with manufactures, as well as specs online they all say it is limited to 50MPH. I was hoping to find a spare tire that...

Thank you!

I recently got this click fixed for driver side rear wheel. Talked to tech about it, but what he says did not make any sense. He said, some about the washer there, and when the axle is moved relative flange, washer is sliding/clicking because of relative motion between those. There is not...

Sorry, this terminology is confusing to me.May be others got what you mean. What is meant by Driver side? Is this Driver Side Window glass (not roof)? What is Top front? Is it area in the windshield above camera mount, but not the roof glass? Rear window? Are you referring to rear portion glass...

Based on conversation with Service manager a while ago, rattles are covered for the first year (1 year from purchase date). Many manufacturers recently changed their policy on rattles to 1 year only. Rattles are not covered under bumper to bumper typical 3-4-5 year warranty. As far as I know...

Yep, I have seen this few time with ELDA. I also have not seen any push/change in steering despite the claimed correction couple of times, but I am pretty sure it is ELDA.

I genuinely hope they are able to provide access to APIs to 3rd Parties with proper security without much overhead. I can think of lot things 3rd Parties could do, like HUD device that shows lot of Data from main screen behind steering which can communicate via Wifi-Direct, or via OBD(however...

So you know it does not cost any money to Tesla at all? All these games developed by Vector unit for free(Really hope that is the case though)? The interfaces has to open to give access, validate security, providing systems, support etc. Nothing is free ever. Even if all these games are...

Hmm, I am not certain that all these games development, porting, security and validating all done by some 3rd Party. Hope that is the case where Tesla is not spending too much. But I have not seen anyone coming forward saying they have developed, ported and tested these games on Tesla.

I just updated to this version. Nothing much there, Software update, Status bar will indicate software available to be downloaded and New language support. Also states, "This release contains minor improvements and bug fixes", not sure what those improvements and fixes are.

Though I do occasionally play Beach Buggy Racing 2, and Chess, others not really playable at all like some folks mentioned above. But for me, more than anything, basic voice command which were promised by Elon years ago are more important. I have pressing so many options on touch screen( My...

I run my tires at 39PSI (it helps a lot), and have not observed any notable loss in range. On freshly paved asphalt, it is heaven in Model 3( we have few roads near me), very very quiet, very little wind noise (at least in my car).But when I get on rough/coarse concrete road on I-5 here, it is...

Thanks for the update! Looks nice, small and tidy!.

I wouldn't call it a design flaw. Ofcourse Model 3 has long wheel base (close to a minivan wheel base) to accommodate battery, motor, differential etc with good handling. Longer the wheel base, more stable, and comfortable the car is going to be in addition to providing more space for battery...

I think it certainly spoiled the looks. But more concerned about moisture holding under the bra. Not sure how it is different from typical bra's, they used to have textile backing which holds the moisture. Also in the long run there may be too much difference in color fade under the bra vs...

I think you nailed it explaining the differences. I have similar experiences. With LDA on if I signal, assist does not kick in. If I do not signal it nudges steering to keep in lane slightly, not jarring like ELDA. LDA is very subtle and easy to override. ELDA interventions are very abrupt as...

That is definitely interesting and not sure what the criteria is to set different PSI. Atleast out of 20 cars in my local Model 3 group only 2 had 45, and those are before 16k vin. Recent one LR AWD with VIN 390k range still has 42 PSI. BTW, this is for cars in PNW area. Not sure if...

LR RWD is also same 42 PSI cold, atleast after 16k VIN. But I run at 39 Cold to keep it little quieter and for comfortable ride.

I think after last version update, I have not seen ELDA doing weird things any more. So I did not have to turn it off anymore. I did file a bug about ELDA issue and sent them an email asking for option to turn off permanently.

Thanks for quick response. Right, with few firmware version ago they increased max current to 2.0AMPs. So, this hub design give one port with 100mA current for USB drives. 2nd port act as a strictly charge port or does the 2nd port act as regular USB port with 2 AMP output?
