    Sound quality question: Bluetooth or USB drive?

    Before V9, I've been dealing with Bluetooth since all I really needed was a shuffle option which did not exist prior to V9. I didn't see anyone talk about shuffle as a new feature in V9 so I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it on my update today. But yes, sound quality will be better from...

    To get Carpool Sticker now or wait until 2019

    Had my car since July but I just decided to wait until 2019 to apply for a sticker for a potential extra full year. I go to east bay maybe once a month so if 2023 validation isn't happening for 2019 applications, i'm not losing out too much either way. I do have a question for FastTrak w/o...

    Is my UMC dead?

    Had the car for a month now and it's always used UMC to charge at home from my 14-50 in my garage. Last night, it was charging for about an hour and 5 minutes it looks like. I woke up this morning to find that the charge didn't complete and my phone had a notification that charging was...

    Teslafi by soulstar posted Aug 18, 2018 at 8:02 PM This is with my car in the garage all day today (and charger not plugged in). I'd say it's fine.

    Lessons learned about USB audio

    Good read, thanks for the guide. I've ditched the USB for now. I prefer USB over bluetooth from my phone but I have a weird tendency to want to skip songs around depending on mood. Sometimes I shuffle the whole library and decide from there as I drive. I don't mind doing all the file...

    Financing Outside of Tesla is Weird - Advice on Lenders?

    I think you're assuming a bit too much on the loan process. At the end of the day, going through Tesla or finding your own financing isn't that much different. Going through Tesla just means that you're applying to bunch of places that Tesla partners with for loans and they give you the offer...

    Should I bother with this alignment issue?

    I took delivery a few weeks ago knowing this was pretty much the only alignment issue. At first, it didn't bother me much but after doing a wash this weekend, the more and more I look at it, it bothers me. I read a lot of alignment stories with service centers and the good 'ol "within spec"...

    california CVRP rebate

    You can do it as soon as you take delivery. When you take delivery, the staff should give you a paper copy of all the documents you signed during delivery. Most of the paperwork in that package is what you'll need for documentation to submit for CVRP. The CVRP website has a PDF document on...

    Model 3 rear ended - let's see how long this takes...

    Wow, this sucks. I too have a white 18 Aero in Sac. Just curious where (assuming in Sac) was this? Also which shop are you using?

    3D Maxpider Kagu Mats for Model 3

    Mine arrived today from PartCatalog. These things are much more rigid and sturdy than I thought once installed. I'll sort of miss the softer mat that came stock but these definitely look like they can handle pretty much anything and won't move around. Color me impressed.

    How do I get a MVPA from Tesla? Time-frame desired: yesterday

    I had a good experience with FPCU. They took a copy of a signed MVPA that Tesla's finance dept had me sign digitally via Docusign. This was at least 5 days before delivery date.

    Tesla needs to give us more music options like Spotify

    I prefer using my USB stick mostly because I'm particular about my music. My gripe with that system is that there isn't much functionality. Everytime I leave the car and come back, it tries to play bluetooth media from my phone (which has none). I have to manually select USB, and a song...

    Tesla Charging Cable Organizer vs Amazon alternative?

    I have the Tesla organizer and mine stays in the holster fine. Not sure if the other person's experience is a defective unit or user error. With that being said, there are tons of alternatives. Having the Tesla-made version, I don't see anything crazy special about it. Alternatives I saw on...

    Problems with auto locking and auto headlights?

    The only time I've not seen the auto-lock kick in is when one of my passengers did not close their door all the way. I only found out after we walked in to the restaurant and was wondering why I didn't hear the beep. I checked the phone to lock it and specifically told me one of the doors is...

    Model 3 P delivery report and first impressions - Rocklin, CA

    I believe wiper fluid low message is a firmware bug. Just out of curiosity, what is Mike quoting you for the Xpel wrap job? Been debating on whether I should get one or not on my RWD.

    Trade-In Experience

    The trade in option is available for you to action when it's very close to delivery time. A lot of folks will say they lowball but my guess is that whatever they use to determine their offer value depends on the region. Me for example, Tesla was the highest offer. They offered 1.5k over what...

    When will the final purchase agreement appear?

    My final purchase agreement was available a day after I made my final payment. It wasn't available online but my ISA provided to me since I needed to finalize my loan portion with my CU. I would ask your ISA for a copy. They should have it as long as the finance people finalized everything in...

    Financing thru 3rd party bank

    I'm going through that process right now. I also have a trade-in. ISA is asking me for a preapproval letter from my lender before she can give me a delivery date... lender is due back with that tomorrow. Your ISA will remind you not to apply for loans until they are ready. When they are...

    Let's talk financing rates

    Got ISA email to start the paperwork process. I'm planning to third-party finance but there's a blurb on ISA email that is confusing. They want a pre-approval letter from the bank/CU but at the same time, they don't want me to apply for any loans until the delivery date is set and is near the...
