very poetic:)👋

If you are planning to travel on weekends some of the Super Chargers may be more busy , other than that just follow the trip planner in your car. Choose locations where there are coffee/restaurants close by so that you can pass your time having some tea/coffee/food as well as use rest-rooms as...

Automobile business is a volume game as the upfront costs to set up a mass manufacturing factory takes time and lots of money in addition to the initial design and development costs. When somebody starts from a scratch to set up an Auto company the odds' of success is something even the House...

On a lighter note, the horn is now the wake word just like Alexa;)

Yes Elon is on record that HW3 will not be upgraded to HW4 . he gave the reason as too many technical challenges , I am not sure if is will be available even if you want to pay for it

More importantly issues in one privately held company should cannot affect another publicly held company. If this is a governance issue then the Tesla Board needs to have the guts to discuss this with Elon which i doubt they will as they are happy with the gains they have got from the stock grants.

Yesterday took the car for a drive to Big Sur before the rains start pounding the coastline later this week . Auto Pilot worked fine no issues. My MX2019 does not have a cabin camera , and I did not get an opportunity to use Autopark as the parking lot was full, but I did see a Cybertruck (...

I have got 2023.44.30.6 - I have not driven the car after the install ( tomorrow i will drive ) my MX is 2019 model so the sw branch may be little different

Well Tesla removed the ultrasonic sensors some time back - so no warning beeps due to proximity- its is purely based on camera /vision

It's still at number 9. I just voted now - Looks like the Canadians have marshalled their troops to vote for 4 of the top 5 spots

PPF/Wrap or Tint is a personal choice as you are going to spend your own money. So it is ultimately your call and choice. Just be happy with your choice and enjoy the dive in your new car.

Most services under warranty are handled by Tesla first giving an estimate which the owner has to approve before the repairs or fix is handled by Tesla. In most vases Tesla waves off the charges are good will once the repair is completed. This has been my experience after owning 3 Teslas over...

If the leak is not towards the edge of the tyre, you can try the fix as long as you are not going out of town. At least you will get to know ( and others in the forum ), whether it worked or not.

As far as I know Tesla recommends that you don't charge it to 100% unless you have a need ( ahead of a long trip). BMS governs the charge % which the battery will accept under normal condition. Putting the car to deep sleep at different SoC % helps the BMS re-calibrate the battery and sometimes...

I sent the pic to tesla service and they sent a mobile tech to my home to replace the tail light.

If there is a leak then pressure drop will happen in a few days ( less than a week), not months.

I have stopped worrying about range as it has never been a problems for me as Tesla still has the best charging infrastructure and experience. As to whether Tesla intentionally mis-states range I am not sure about it. Frankly the exact mileage promised by Tesla does not bother me if it is a...

The Garmin/ Magellan will work even when there is no cell tower or connection as it does not rely on cell connectivity. In the middle of nowhere ( remote areas in Death Valley or National Parks) Garmin will still work, may take a little longer to find and establish location from the overhead...

I don't have tint in any of my cars, but it is a personal preference as long as it meets the state laws.

This looks like a crack which progressing leading towards a fracture . It looks like a big safety issue and needs to be brought to Tesla immediately.

Costs of Electricity vary by state , Typically at the high end ( California ) it can range from 42 cents/ KW during peak hours down to 28 cents during off peak hours. Charge point L2 chargers charge around 40 cents per KW in the Bay Area . I don't use L2 chargers so my info may not be current...

As far as I know the jack mode is used so that the air suspension does not try to auto correct when one side of the car is lifted for tyre change , etc. I don't think in your case not using the jack mode while fixing the door will have much impact. ( full disclosure - I am not an expert in...

you can buy the battery from Tesla, pick it up and if you are comfortable you can install it yourself. Lots of YouTube videos on how to do it yourself.

I think they are all vegan leather irrespective of color

Tesla recommends that you rotate and balance tyres every 6K miles. On MX with a staggered tyre set up ( not square) you can only change left to right not front to back.

My 2020 MY is on Rel 2023.7.20 and I don't have this issue. . So your are on an earlier release, so I think the newer release will fix the issue

In my 2019 MX, the front wheels are 265 and the rear are 275 . 275 will not fit the front wheels. please check that the front wheels are 265 .

I have experienced this during heavy rains in California.

suggest carry a 50/30 amp connecter /Adapter for your car mobile charger the type that works in RV campsites just in case you run into range issues. Also I understand the Canadian RV sites use a different type of plug connector. Speed is your big enemy for mileage range so please pay attention...

for a 100+ $ investment, it will buy you the peace of mind incase you travel out of town and land in a situation where you need to charge and there are no viable alternate options nearby.

Suggest check with a Tesla approved Body shop. Opinions here are best guess with all good inventions - what matters is what the body shop in your area quotes since they are ones who are going to fix it.

I can't think of any probable cause right now. Hope someone more knowledgeable in the forum provides a clue or solution.

Do you have the key fob?

No need to do a full change everyday. As a best practice for longer battery life, limit your charge to 70-80% unless you need the higher charge due to your travel plans. If your daily travel is 50 miles then 60-70% charge is sufficient., You can set that up in your App and the car will only...

Interesting, my 2020 MY was CCS1 ready when it was delivered, so when the adapter became available from Tesla, I purchased one and tested it, it worked. May be during the pandemic and supply chain related issues, Tesla may have stopped adding the CCS1 option on the newer MY as a temporary...

Both Ford and GM will start delivering Tesla compatible NACS cars starting 2025. That gives them enough time to relocate the charging port in the car at the right location , so they don't take up 2 charging slots instead of one.

Not sure if you put the car on car wash mode if this will solve you problem. I hand wash my car and if i accidently press on the charge port, it opens and i close it from the ph app so that the car knows the charge port has been closed and stays closed.

I think Tesla may be having a supply issues shortly so they are keeping it only for MS and MX as the installed base for both these cars is much smaller compared to M3 and MY. I guess this must be a temporary issue and it will be available for all models later on.

Most likely the CCS1 adapter is heating up and hence the BMS in Tesla may be reducing the rate of charge rate or the the 3rd party Charger may be doing it. You may need to get an opinion and guidance from an expert in this topic.

I have kept both my Tesla's plugged in and have travelled out of the country for 45 days, no issues related flat tire spots.

I don't know about GA, but in CA, SCs get super busy during long weekends. In 2019 during a long weekend, we were waiting to charge at a SC and the line was so long, that the local retailers called the cops stating that the long line of Tesla cars is preventing their customers coming to the...

I am glad you are safe, at highway speed , this could have caused a major accident.

Fully agree the customer experience leaves a lot to be desired, especially considering that you have purchased a car priced similar to a in the luxury ICE car

I am sorry to hear about your car. I'm assuming based on your description of the person , he may be mentally challenged or going thru some mental issues. Mentally challenged people are doing weird things - damaging property, throwing things at people and wrong things with guns. I am not sure...

Well Tesla is not the best with its customer relation or settings things right in certain situations. However, from what you have described, they have a ground to charge extra for this feature/option as it was not a part of the original purchase. I am not getting into whether is fair or not or...

I think the flasher is powered by the 12V battery, may be some relay is stuck somewhere? I never came across this situation before

Also Try to power down the vehicle from the dash display and if it still does not work, try soft re-boot first before doing a full/hard re-boot

Driving speed and weight carried in the car are the 2 big parameters which affect KWH/m both of which are under the user's control. Other external parameters like elevation, head wind, ambient temp outside, etc etc are not under the user's control so I am not considering them in this case.
