Can someone in Texas confirm - you don't need to make the final payment before being able to schedule the delivery appointment, right? I have a VIN.

Any updates on this issue? I have the exact same problem. I have a mobile service appointment but it's a month away. Looks easy enough to fix myself, if I can determine how to get the plastic steering column casing off.

Anyone know approximately how many firmware updates to the Tesla Offer kit have been needed to fix the operation temporarily fixed by a Tesla update? Are the updates timely? Easy to install? Leaning towards the Tesla Offer kit over the Hansshow due to full functionality of trunk lights and...

On the Hansshow v2 kit, do the trunk lights stay on when the trunk is open or do they flash?

This can't be the actual fix on the new kits shipped...right!? Surely they would know that flashing trunk lights and a jumpy screen isn't a satisfactory fix to make buyers happy. Can anyone else comment or does anyone have the updated kit that was fixed by the manufacturer?

The sale price is tempting... Has there been any progress/updates with the Hansshow kit showing the status of the open trunk on the display or phone app? Also, anything new with the issue where the trunk lights don't turn on when the trunk is open? Thanks.

The mold smell has been cleaned and no longer smells. However, I'm asking/wondering more out of preventative future measures - I don't want to have to repeat every few months. While I see others with the problem on ICE cars, I've been lucky to never have it happen on any car I own. With the...

I'm curious whether or not this has been implemented. I saw reports that it has and also others it has not. When I called Tesla service, they said a fix is being worked on but hasn't yet been implemented. I've been looking into this a lot lately as I'm one of many with smelly AC. If it has...

Same here also. July 2018 build. My 90% charge is only 274 miles. My friend who got the mysterious update charges 90% with 292 miles. What's going on...?

Noticed a slow tire leak last night. Upon inspection, I found the nail pictured below. Does anyone know if this is repairable? 19 inch rims with the Continental tires. Nail is between the treads. Tires only have about 4,000 miles on them so I really don't want to have to buy another one...

Any pictures yet dmattmul?

Does anyone know if you can get away with a BL-5000SLX Quickjack for the model 3? Any reason why it would be worth the extra cost for a higher capacity model except to future-proof for other vehicles?

Yeah - I did the painters tape test at low and high speeds...no difference in wind noise. Idea is better than reality.

Any pictures of the rubber pulling under the glass? Could that really damage anything under there? Doesn't seem to be any force on the glass...

Has anyone tried this yet on later built model 3s (June - present)? Some previous posts seem to suggest this kit will only help early builds with severe wind noise issues. Wanted to get some opinions... Model 3 Windshield Wind Noise Reduction Kit Thanks.

Is there a different issue involved between car unlocking and car not starting (i.e. screen staying black, no a/c when door opens, pressing brake does nothing)? My car instantly unlocks pretty much every time I try with my iphone X; however, there are numerous times lately I get in and...

Is anyone seeing a lot of debris on the rear glass after tinting (between the glass and tint)? I went to a very reputable tint installer and was somewhat disappointed after letting it dry and examining. I know the rear glass is difficult with the size of the one piece rear glass/roof but this...

What coupon code did you use?

This picture is right below the charge port door so I see it everyday. It always catches my eye - the bumper piece sticking away from the panel above. In the middle of the panel line, you can see behind the bumper (where the plastic ridges are). Is this something that can be fixed by a...

Any pics of your bumper gap? I have a bumper gap below the charge port - looked slightly worse than another model 3 I looked at - wanted to compare. Thanks.

Out of stock unfortunately...

Anyone know where these are still in stock? Looks like everywhere is now out...

Seems unlikely a drive unit would fail during a train/truck transport from the Tesla factory.

Was supposed to pick up the car tomorrow (August 1) and just got a call from the delivery center that the rear drive unit failed inspection and a new one has to be ordered. Another 2 weeks before that is received. My delivery specialist has a message to my ISA about time frame for a newly...

Anyone picking up their M3 in Houston this week (or supposed to at least)? Mine keeps rolling a day back - initially a July 31 delivery, then August 1 delivery, now saying more likely August 2. Frustrating that the delivery specialists can't even see where the car is or know when it will arrive.

Thanks for the info. I did the install myself also using 6/2 MC - just making sure I didn't undersize my wire. Very cheap DIY (spent less than $100 for materials, excluding the HPWC). You're right though, EMT will definitely look cleaner. If I ever need to rerun the wiring, I'll probably use...

How did it go this morning? I'm picking mine up in a week from Houston but after reading everything about delays, I'm a bit skeptical.

Does this apply to MC cable? 6/2 (plus ground) THHN inside metal clad?

Are the tires directional? I didn't think they were. Did you just do front to back/back to front? No side swapping?

Anyone know if the OEM tires with the 19" wheels (Continental ProContact RX I think) are directional on recent built cars? Will be doing my own rotations - trying to determine if I can jack up the car on each side or if it will need all 4 tires up for a proper rotation. Thanks.

Anything new on these delivery problems in Houston? Supposed to take delivery in about a week but seems like many are experiencing delays...

Keep us updated! I have delivery scheduled for August 1st in Houston...

Disregard. Should have searched BEFORE posting a new thread. 50 odometer miles is normal on the purchase agreement. Mods, please delete thread. Thanks.

How far down the list are orders in production?

Anyone heard of Tesla matching another 3rd party offer (other than CarMax)? Carmax/Tesla both offered $18K. Another used car dealer offered $19.6K and a separate one offered $19.7K. I know about the tax savings and ease with Tesla; however, it mentally hurts to sell to Tesla at the lowest...

That looks really nice. Dark but you can still see through the glass roof. Nicely done. I'm guessing you don't notice with the side windows tinted darker than the back glass?

Any pics of how dark the 55% looks?

Have there been any prices posted? Tray, Drink holders, Qi phone charger?

Can you post pictures of what the pano roof over the driver looks like with the tint? It matches your 35% 1 piece rear glass? Thanks.

Do you have any pictures? So you did a full 1 piece sheet rear glass 70%? Nothing on the front overhead glass?

In for all 3. Hopefully you're starting a list...?

I know this topic has probably been discussed to death - just one more question... I know the roof tint can be up to personal preference (film cut mid roof at the factory tint line or full 1 piece tint, which further darkens the roof tint). For those getting the 1 piece tint on the roof to...

I'm in Houston also, still waiting for a delivery date. Good to know that delivery location was smooth. Any plans for window tint and/or paint protection? I'm looking for some good recommendations for places that have already worked on M3s.

Can someone who has been assigned a VIN post a picture of their Tesla account page so we can see how it looks? I called Tesla today to ask about my VIN in order to get a proper insurance quote. The rep told me I had a VIN assigned already; however, my sales rep will contact me soon to give me...

I've been away from this thread a few days... Does this mean I should not use a 6/2 MC cable (link below) since I'll be charging at 48A continuous? Metal Clad MC Cable 6/2 - Type MC Copper Electrical Wire 6 Gauge 2 Conductor

@eprosenx - Does your Sense give you any data on peak energy usage for your house? Can you not use that to get a rough estimate of total load?

The tool actually has an EV charging as one of the items in the pull down menu. I just separated the Tesla so I could get a more accurate energy usage with numbers I know. That tool could definitely be flawed though. However, I like the idea of scheduled charging it at night. My electricity...

Isn't the load calculated as volts * amps of the item? It looks like your 14,400 is 240 * 60 (circuit breaker). I was using 240 * 48 (tesla continuous charge) = 11,520. Am I thinking about that wrong?

Good to know. This charger will be for a model 3, so it's limited to 48 amps anyway. Theoretically, I'd like to have the car plugged in whenever it's in the garage. Charging could be during some peak electricity times (i.e. cooking dinner, with wife and kid home). I'm guessing you use the...

Found the website below for a quick whole house load calculation. I know it isn't exact. Showing around 155 amp load with the 48 amp tesla wall charger. Thoughts? Whole House Load Calculator My calculation: Load.pdf
