Haha yeah, and there will be 3000 more!

100% is 293?

Had the car for one year now. LR RWD. 13,200 miles. First time today I charged to 100%. It’s been run down to 2-3% a couple of times. I usually charge to 80% most days. Attached is my Stats app battery log. Per the algorithm, I’ve lost 7-8% in one year. What are you thoughts?

What is the California state tax refund?

Sorry OP. Also on a serious note, deepest condolences to that bear’s family. Poor guy. Would insurance cover the cost without increasing premiums assuming OP has full coverage? Interested to know how it works in such a situation.

I think you forgot the /s. LOL

Anyone with experience on the red touch up paint?

LOL loves the ducks lining up in this thread!

Would the touch up kit from Tesla work? I feel like it would require multiple layers of paint just to smooth out the surface, given that some areas are deeper than others.

My mom was not so careful and opened the left rear door all the way forcefully and it hit our wall. I attached some pics. Any advice on best cost-effective way to get it fixed? The paint is gone in some parts of it and I can see metal. Should I just go to a standard professional body repair...

Would love any recs for detailers in Orange County. Also, how often do you guys send your car to get detailed? I have some minor scratches I'd like to get removed.

Mine never showed any increase with the software update. I always wondered why some cars would show near 325 while others remained around 310.

I agree, $27 is too much for such a product.

Word.

Lol, I’m not joking!

I was able to markedly reduce my back rattle by placing an old shoe insert between the gaps of the window-like thing in the trunk that allows airflow between the cabin and the trunk.

Those with radio problems, who has a tint? Check out my thread. Poor radio reception after tint?

Can you check if they will accept just the front bumper? Mine got done by Rodz but the quality was not there, so I plan on getting it redone. They use 3M. Also general question, is it ok to mix 3M with Xpel?

My sister had it happen for the first time yesterday.

I would not fix it. I went through a lot trying to get paint nibs fixed. The results required more work and the car was out of my hands for 2.5 months. I highly recommend you learn to overlook it.

Would appreciate pictures of the inside and a review of how it feels.

I honestly should have waited. Picked up my car Aug 2018. I got a car with a multitude of problems for MORE $$$.

The tuner and amplifier were replaced by Tesla according to invoice.

any idea when sentry mode will learn to overwrite the old files so I don't have to delete my 32gb USB stick every 3 days?

My guess too. It’s not the first time I had this response to other problems.

The tech did say they checked to see if there was any short and there was none. Does this answer your second question?

Rodz Tint Shop. Southern California (Orange County) Tesla Model 3 Tint/PPF Group Buy

LOL, KPCC and KCRW is how I keep up to date with the world around me.

I have Tesla telling me that the three 3s in their shop with tints have the problem, and three 3s without tints don’t have the problem. My sister’s and friend’s 3s with the same exact tint don’t have the problem. You guys don’t have any problems. Not sure what to do.

Anyone have radio reception issues from Rodz after 3M crystalline tint application?

Crystalline is non-metallic.

Looks like crystalline is not ceramic.

I don’t know to first question. Anyone here that does tinting can answer the second question?

All your responses do not make me confident in my SC’s conclusion.

What does ceramic not do that my 3M crystalline 40% does? And seriously, this car is not a Honda or a Toyota. It’s an expensive car that I paid over 60k for. Why does this car have so many issues?

Just checked and my tint is 40%, which is below what they recommend.

As long as I can remember, my Model 3 always had poor radio reception. I'm in SoCal and most affected stations are 89.9 and 89.3. The higher # stations also cut out from time to time when going under bridges, big trucks driving next to me. I also got my tint pretty soon after picking it up. I...

Do you have a video of this sound? I have a sound coming from the rear and can’t find the cause.

Don’t even bother coming in. Waste of time. The chances that 1) the problem will be reproduced at the time you bring in your car and 2) a service rep will actually know what to do...are low. Better to wait until Tesla has an official plan.

Worked beautifully. Thank you!

Will try the tape method tomorrow! Thanks for the suggestion. Will report back.

Just another thing to add to the list of “inexplicable things humans do.”

How is it that there are so many with this problem and no exact cause has been identified? It sounds like everyone has a different resolution.

I don’t think October cars have free lifetime internet.

Very unfortunate. This is just another addition to the long list a complaint I have about the model 3. I wonder sometimes when is it the time to stop making excuses for Tesla? Do you think I can request mobile service to replace the antenna? I really don’t want to take it to the service...

Do you know what the bulletin says?

Can someone give me a back story? Why the hell did she do that?

Never had issues with any other car. And I think it’s just these two stations.

I have issues with 89.9 and 89.3 in Orange County. Reception cuts in and out constantly while driving.

Funny. Beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder. I think the white dash is the ugliest thing out there. :p
