If you are very nitpicky about your car, then right before you drop it off, take as many pictures as you can of the car both inside and out. Wouldn’t hurt to make a video showing the condition you are dropping it off in. Better yet, have someone at the delivery center do a walk around with you...

Another data point. - Requested via phone late November - Received e-mail to confirm address early December - Received response to inquiry since I never got confirmation they received my address, was told it was processed December 12th - Today (12/24/2018) received check - Woohoo

Hi skrtskrt, Unfortunately, that is the issue. Some experience very little noise, while others (like myself) experience terrible noise. If you read the tirerack reviews carefully, some rave about how quiet they are, while others make a point to talk about how noisy they are. There is a quality...

For all still considering the AS3+, I did a bit more digging as I ended up with a very loud hum/vibration at highway speeds with these tires installed on my 20" rims. Below is the link to user reviews on consumer reports, though I may be the only one experiencing the issue on these forums, I am...

To all that got the AS3+ ok their 20’s, what is the noise level at around 70mph+? With music off and windows rolled up. I have this loud hum that’s very noticeable. Seems like I’m the only one that has this issue. Sounds like when you drive over blacktop that’s about to be repaved and the top...

Just to give an update on my AS3+ experience. I was the one who did not find these tires to be as quiet/comfortable as the 4S tires that came with the 20” wheels. My main issue is the road noise at highway speeds. There is a loud wurr sound accompanied with some slight vibration. This points to...

My personal experience with my local (NJ) service centers is the following: 1. Tesla will not swap out the 4S tires with another tire for you. They don’t currently have any all-season tires available for the 20” wheel. I had Tesla lift my car up and give me the wheels, which I then took to a...

Yeah, I saw your earlier post and wanted to add my experience. Maybe there’s something else going on with my car if I’m the only one with seemingly more noise/vibration. I’m taking it in for service in a couple weeks for the road howl, it’s that bad. Around town, bumps would not cause my windows...

Yeah, that's what it should be! I was just noting that my 4S were higher, yet the AS3+ felt stiffer.

Interesting read, thanks! I was aware of the foam in the tires, which the AS3+ do not have from tire rack, but I did not expect the difference to be as noticeable as it is. My 4S were set to 45PSI, these are at the appropriate 42PSI. I’ll continue driving on them as there’s not many other...

I just put on the AS3+ on my P3D+, swapped out the stock 4S for these. I seem to have a different experience than others who have done the same swap. I find the tires to be much stiffer, this is more noticeable on roads that aren’t smooth. It’s so bad in fact, the car will vibrate and I can...

Yeah, to 80% every night. First few days I got 248 miles, then 247, and now 246 miles at 80%

Mine is still at 246 at 80%, drive < 20 miles daily and plug in every night. Almost at 400 miles now, not too concerned for now, never charged to 100%.

When new, it used to charge to 80% with 248 rated miles. This matches perfectly with what was expected since that is exactly 80% of the full 310 mile range. After a week of ownership, it now charges to 246 miles at 80%. I plug in every night with the UMC to a NEMA 14-50 socket. Car has a bit...

Agreed. It’s one thing to be in delivery hell, but this is unacceptable. It takes maybe 10 minutes to give a car a good look-over both externally and internally. There’s no reason why any customer should have to see a car in this condition. Even if it’s a few dirt marks on the inside, it’s not...

Press on the T on the screen. There should be a red line underneath the Dual Motor. That indicates performance. If it doesn’t have the red underline, talk to the delivery specialist. Someone else on here was missing it and it was a matter of updating the firmware.

It’s not just RWD inventory cars. I rejected my delivery and got matched up with an inventory car with identical specs, just had to be shipped to my local SC!

My first delivery attempt was also outside, but thankfully no rain that day so I could inspect closely, which turned out to be necessary! I’ll also be there this Tuesday for my next attempt, also expecting it to be outside, but the forcecast doesn’t look favorable this time around. With that...

The picture almost makes it seem like the glass itself was filed down too much and unevenly. Hope that excess can just be removed if it’s on top. o_O

I did, but I had to reject it unfortunately due to a crack in the rear glass:( Wrote up my experience earlier in this thread, page 58. Hope yours goes smoothly!

Congrats!! 72xxx VIN?

Big day came and went yesterday. Was excited to pick up my car as you can all imagine. There was a twin right next to it, VIN only a few before mine. Waited around a bit for the paperwork, which took about 10 minutes. I signed everything but the delivery acceptance as I wanted to go over it...

I can finally say my wait is coming to an end. Got a delivery date of Friday September 14th scheduled! Originally ordered AWD on 5/20, then switched to P3D+ on June 23rd (prior to price decrease and introduction of P3D variant, which was a nice surprise!) VIN 72xxx. I’m on mobile so I’ll have to...

There was an article for a review of the P3D+ (with Performance upgrade), I don’t have the link, but it might have been Car & Driver. They said the braking distance (with the upgraded 4-pot brakes) was on par with the BMW M3. Edit: Sorry, it was road and Track, here’s the article. Tesla Model 3...

Looks like all the Blue P3D+ have been part of a large batch. Mine is also 72XXX, but I have yet to officially get my VIN or contact from a delivery specialist. Either way, great to see tons of movement, congrats!

You’ve had the edit button/inability to modify your order for over a month? If you do cash/trade-in, the edit button disappears, but doesn’t mean your car is actually in production. If it’s been a month since you’ve been unable to modify, that’s insane!

We’re in a similar boat, though I have a VIN and have been waiting a few days less than you. I called today and my advisor was also offline according to the rep. I wouldn’t mind so much, except I’ll be out of the county for 2 weeks next week and would like to at least schedule delivery...

I’ve been waiting for almost a week. I was no longer able to edit last Sunday. I’m in the same batch as others with the same build, yet some have delivery dates already, including on my coast! Some get calls right away, others don’t. I also can’t enter loan/trade-in info either. Not sure if that...

I believe they will tell you 7 days before delivery. Just to add another data point, I also called once my edit link took me back to my main account page. The first 2 reps would not give me the VIN, but the 3rd did. I just called once a day starting on Sunday, they also told me who my delivery...

I actually do have a VIN for a DBM P3D+ with black interior. I got it from the customer support line, but I never wrote it down, either 72xxx or 73xxx. I’m waiting for the “official” e-mail/call from the delivery specialist to update the tracker. Was told I should get something by today, but...

I called the regular Tesla customer suppport line and was told I had been assigned a VIN and a delivery specialist. They wouldn’t tell me the VIN though (maybe it’s not available yet). I haven’t been able to modify since Sunday. Still no call/email, but was told to expect something by Wednesday.

I was definitely able to edit earlier this week. Tried the edit page again today and it just went back to my normal page. I haven’t had the edit button ever since I switched to no trade-in (was already cash). Just now I called Tesla to ask about my account and I was told I have been assigned a...

Did your edit button also just go away? Or did you have cash/no trade-in so you haven't had it since you confirmed? Also, congrats!! Glad to finally see some movement!

If his is OBP instead of standard black then it may just be the run that was previously mentioned on Electrek. Though, seeing people have the finance/trade-in options available is also good sign!

At this point, some deliveries are already set for early September, so I’m guessing it’ll be mid to late September before any of us get our cars.

I saw a post on the Tesla reddit (was buried in the commments somewhere) that AWD’s were not being produced this week due to part shortages. This was told to them by someone at Tesla. Don’t know the validity of this claim, but what’s another week right? Obviously they’re saving that best P+s for...

The black/black P3D+ may be part of the obsidian black pearl batch that was recently kicked off, just like Fred’s car from Electrek. Hoping that means other batches (colors) of black interior P3D+ cars are getting kicked off soon as well!

Of course, thinking I'd get my P3D+ sooner... not predicting the black interior would be the last config they'd make. I have a trip coming up in late August and it's looking like my delivery window will be while I'm away meaning I'll have to give up the car and wait yet again :eek: Note: I did...

Add another to the list, blue/black with PP.

Are the fronts 4 or 6 pot brakes? What about the rear? 2?4?

Yeah, was all filled out on 5/20. I was within the first 100 at my local store. Hopefully it’s just a matter of getting the paint shop to switch over to blue once they make every other color!

3/31/16 line reservation, non-owner, east coast 5/20 config blue AWD 6/23 changed to P-AWD w/ black interior (before floodgates opened) 6/27 price automatically went down, new config reflected Performance + performance package 7/24 Still nothing... I don't even have the new confirmation page and...

Those are renders and all the blues delivered so far have been the darker shade, but one could always hope!

I think he means those of us that ordered a P+ blue Model 3 have yet to see any traction with our orders :/

Thought I saw someone on /r/TeslaMotors/ say they got the e-mail to prepare for delivery, but it was a non-P blue AWD. Hopefully some blue P's start to show up this coming week!

Configured Blue AWD 5/20 Changed to P on 6/23 (before the price decrease) so my config is now the P with Performance package. First time I'm seeing an estimate: Estimated delivery: Aug. '18 - Oct. '18 Line-waiter, non-owner, east coast.

Dang, you are right. I didn’t even notice the teeth on that grainy image. Thanks for pointing it out! Now I have to rethink whether I should change my order to the P3D. Wish I knew what else was different to justify the $23k difference. Maybe Elon wasn’t just hyping it up when he said track, he...

What makes you think these brakes are different, other than that color? Seems like the same 4-por calipers as in the regular version, just painted red. I realize these are the bigger 20” rims, but the brakes don’t seem different.

This is the reason I configured for the dual motors as opposed to the performance model. There simply isn’t enough information for me to warrant spending the extra money. As far as I can tell for certain, it’s only the spoiler, bigger rims, binned motors, and essentially P-specific...
