    How to turn off the automatic navigation to work and home?

    [Moderator note: thread title changed to more accurately describe the thread topic] Since the last update (to 36.2.1), my car is set to navigate to my home as soon as I engage it for driving. Unless I'm AT home, then it navigates to my office. I've checked the settings and don't see any...

    No more outage anxiety

    So, the only way to tap into solar power during an outage is to utilize battery storage... it made me a little nuts when we had our solar installed a few years back and I learned that power to the meter from the grid is required to use solar power. Last year, we made the decision to increase...

    America's Tire says 19" factory tires underrated for vehicle

    America's Tires refused to rotate my wheels today. They said they are unable to service the car because the 19" tires are underrated for the car. Long story short- I took delivery on Sept 30, 2018. I ordered the car with 19" wheels, but due to a delivery mishap (one of many) my car was still...

    White dot on my avatar, what is it?

    Here's a screen shot with my Model 3 is stopped, but not yet in park. Anyone know the purpose of the white dot on the rear window? It disappears when the car is shifted into park.

    AM/FM streaming issue?

    Gotta have my CapRadio NPR in the morning... but for the past week or so, the FM streaming doesn't load, just an image of that forever spinning icon. Slacker radio stations operate like usual. It didn't coincide with a software update, either. I tried a hard system reboot since it had been a...

    "Car May Not Restart" service message, no kidding

    I left my Model 3 in the garage last week for 5 days. Mostly fully charged so I did not plug it in. I checked my app and found a software update notification and was able to update my car from another country, how cool was that? But what I didn't like was seeing the range dropping by a...

    Post-1200 mile road trip observations

    I've read a few posts made by others after long road trips and learn something new every time, so I thought I would share some thoughts after my first long road trip (Sacramento to Vegas and back, 1200 driving miles). Apologies in advance if you've heard them before: 1. I couldn't rationalize...

    Is the Model 3 a "flashy" car?

    A friend made a comment to me the other day that has been sticking in my head. She said something to the effect that I've always driven "flashy" cars. I think a better description would have been "distinctive" as I have a hard time considering a MINI Cooper, my previous car, as flashy. But a...

    The jack pad adapter is designed exclusively to fit the OEM A4 Audi/VW jack commonly available through outlets such as eBay and Amazon and allows you to raise the Model 3 using the jack points to change a tire in a roadside emergency. The adapter is machined from a solid piece of aluminum...

    How low do you go?

    So, the recommendation by Tesla is to charge when the car is at 50%, and to not charge on a regular basis over 90%, right? I have a relatively (and sadly, I must say) short commute and normally would fill my gas tank about once every two weeks. I thought I'd be charging overnight on about the...

    Call received from Tesla Toronto "just checking"

    Imagine my excitement to see a call coming in on my cell from Tesla last Thursday. The call originated from Toronto, and the customer service rep was sadly NOT calling to tell me that my car was ready for delivery. He asked me when I heard last from Tesla regarding my order. Funny, but you...
