I installed the silicone tubing, 5/16" OD from HomeDepot. I bought 2 10' sections. They didn't have 20' but you won't be able to insert 1 piece and go all the around in one go. I did it in 2 and some people do it in 3. I used soapy water to lubricate and a funnel to pour it forward down the...

I'm planning on getting Konis from TireRack. However, I checked with them and they don't have any installers who work on Teslas in the San Francisco Bay Area. They recommended talking to Tesla. Has anyone used Tesla to install third party shocks? Anyone know anyone in the Bay Area? LA? (I need...

You switched your MY from stock 245/45 R19 to the M3 235/45R18 wheels+tires?

30.03". Hmmm. Even the MPP lift kit only increases that to 29.5" diameter.

The Model 3 Gen 2 Aero rims are 18" diameter, 8.5" wide with a 40mm offset and a 750kg load capacity.

@Discount Tire, for the Model Y I see 235/55R18 XL recommended when switching down to 18" rims. However, Hankook doesn't make an Ion Evo in exactly that size. Would there be any problems putting the Evo SUV 235/65 R18 on a Model 3 gen2 Aero rim for the Model Y? I'm just looking for summer...

Do you have the Hankook Ion EVO summer tires?

I have a 2024 MYLR with 19" Geminis wearing OEM 255/45R19s. I'm looking for comfort. There are some takeoff M3 Highland Photons with 235/45R18 Hankooks available. That seems like just less tire. I can imagine it might be more efficient but definitely less comfortable. So is the only way to...

The curb weight for the MYLR is 4,398 lbs. The curb weight for the M3LR is 4,034 lbs. That 750 kg load rating is really there for worst case with trailering which I won't be doing. But this guy covers it in more depth...

I'd have gotten the RWD LFP if it was available in the US. So I instead got an Inventory MYLR with a toe hitch with the standard 19" Gemini wheels. I'm looking to swap those Geminis for 18" M3 Photons.

The Model 3 Photon wheels are 18X8.5J offset 38. The Model Y Gemini wheels are 19X9.5J offset 45. Would that swap work for comfort?

I'm going to stay with stock springs.

BTW, this guy calls out part numbers. So I think Tesla Service was bullshitting me about no change. It's possible I got an MYP suspension.

Koni packages them into a kit for just about every car … except Tesla. But I think that's just a typo/oversight. Hopefully Koni gets back to you. https://www.koni-na.com/en-US/NorthAmerica/Products/Cars/1165-Special-Active-Lowering-Kit(Red)/

EA says they're compatible. https://europeanautosource.com/blogs/news/tesla-model-y-koni-special-active-red-damper-kit

So I took my MYLR to Tesla Service this morning. They said that my Y was as God intended it which was to put hair on your chest. They also said it only had 500 miles on it and that the suspension needed to break in (but when pressed said that wouldn't change much at 5000). They said MYP and...

I live in Oakland and test drove down at the factory in Fremont where the roads nearby are excellent; Oakland, not so much. Still the ride on the test drive was much better at stops and turns. Yes, the S drove well but this Y is absolutely bad, not relatively bad. I've driven a lot of cars over...

My 02/24 Fremont LR is not very comfortable. I have an appointment at Tesla Service tomorrow. Maybe it's the factory alignment. Dunno.

I bought a Fremont LR but if an LFP RWD had been available, I'd have bought that.

343 miles. "Comfort" can't be this bad.

I have an 02/24 Fremont LR and it is harsh. I feel everything. I guess the first thing I'll do is schedule Service but I want to just cut to the chase and install Konis.

I got Michelin wipers from CostCo for the S. They fit, sort of. But I literally had to tape them to retain them. Google CostCo wipers and you won't find happy people. I'll go with Tesla wipers for the Y when the time comes.

2018 must have been terrible because my 02/24 Fremont Y is harsh. I'm investigating just immediately swapping on Konis.

Oh yeah?

I hated creep but I would want the choice because especially on an EV, it's just software.

02/24 and I picked it up at Fremont Delivery (literally at the factory) on 3/28.

Found it.

I know my MYLR was manufactured in Fremont in 2024 from the VIN. However, there doesn't seem to be any information on the driver's door frame about which month. Did Tesla stop doing this?

In addition the Photon's 710kg is up from the Aero's 700kg.

So Discount Tire quoted $500 to install new MY compatible TPMS sensors. The Tesla TPMS sensors are $300/4. Swapping an M3 Aero with an MY Gemini that'd be $200 for the labor. Is that right, translated into loonies?

New 2024 MYLR picked up last Thursday. This supposedly has the comfort suspension but the ride seems very harsh. I can feel every crack in the road. Is there any adjustment Service can make or should I look into Konis?

I just picked up a 2024 MYLR. The suspension seems … harsh. Is this supposed to be the "comfort" suspension? If this is comfort, should I be looking at Konis?

It was helpful to know where in the Tesla app the transfer was supposed to be marked so that I could explain what was missing. I messaged my sales advisor and the guy who was handling the trade in. Then someone else followed up and called me. We worked through it. It's marked on the Trade In...

Thank you for the screen shot. My trade in page does NOT have the Free Supercharging. I'll track this down with the sales advisor.

Was the transfer automatic or did you have to do anything in the Tesla app or anything with the sales advisor?

I am trading in and I received/accepted my trade in offer. The app isn't saying anything about the free supercharging transfer. My Serramonte sales advisor says and I quote: You will need to set it up through the Tesla app. We are not able to set it up for you here. I'm pushing delivery back...

I'm in the middle of purchasing a Model Y to replace my 2015 Model S with free supercharging. The app doesn't mention the free supercharging transfer. When+how does this happen?

I'm seeing 18 2023 RWDs in CA right now. https://tesla-info.com/inventory/US/MY/?state=CA&miles=99999&max=99999999&year=20232024&sortsale=256&token=802824&spec=0&adv=0&minrange=0

Did you get the $7500 Federal Tax Rebate? I'm an existing S owner with free Supercharging. They're offering free paint or free interior color choices. But that's it. Anything I don't know about?

It started working again. I think the problem was caused by interference from the next car over in my parking garage. It is recently new and now recently gone. It seems sort of like the Mt Wilson case mentioned in other threads.

Holding my FOB in the middle top of the rear window and pressing OPEN reliably gets the car open. But it doesn't get the car to start.

Unsurprisingly, the problem is the same for the charge port. But I can also open the charge port from the app. Also, this was out and about at a Supercharger. So the problem is NOT local to the garage.

So this happened to me as well. I couldn't OPEN the car with the FOB. I swapped in new batteries into both FOBs and neither worked. Then I saw this thread and changed the wheel size, reset, changed it back, reset. The reset actually takes longer than you think. The car is up and running and then...

Do I have to pay list price or can I get the inventory discount? (Last year, I couldn't.)

I wanted LFP but RWD isn't getting that. So I'm just getting the LR.

I'm upgrading to LR anyways. I really wanted LFP and the RWD in the US isn't getting that. So it's LR for me.

"Customers must take delivery of their new Model S, Model X or Model Y by December 31, 2023."

So the RWD doesn't appear to have an LFP battery. So I'm going to get a MYLR off local Inventory. I've already signed the FUSC PDF in blood. Am I going to have any problems applying this to the MYLR?

I think the big difference is that after you've accepted your car and the free supercharging transfer is complete you can't sell the car and then the new owner gets free supercharging.
