    Charged to 100%, battery maxed at 299

    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?

    Advice on repairing door ding

    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...

    Any recommendations for detailers in Orange County?

    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.

    Poor radio reception after tint?

    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...

    Anyone have experience with Pomona body shop?

    Got into a collision and trying to make an appointment to get the damages fixed. The earliest appointment is 1/31/19. Trying to figure out if I should just find another place. I mostly want to know the quality of their work. Also they don’t even have a direct number!

    Easy way to adjust fan speed?

    When I drove a Model S loaner, the controll button on the wheel could be scrolled to adjust fan speed. On the 3, the only way I know is to take you eyes off the road, look at the screen, touch the HVAC settings, and then touch the - or + buttons. There has to be a safer way to do this...

    Anyone still having vampire drain?

    I’ve been having a hunch my car still has vampire drain so I actually paid attention to the charge yesterday night. Parked car with 190 miles and 12 hours later it’s down to 183. I’m assuming this is not within normal specs? I’m on 44.1 and it dropped to high 40s at night. Would appreciate...

    Steering wheel scuffs

    Picked up my car from SC today after 6 weeks of repaints and other issues, and when driving home noticed that the steering wheel felt rough. Turns out there are 3 scuffs, probably caused by someone who was driving it with long nails. This whole SC experience has been so frustrating to say the...

    Clicking from brake/accelerator - help!

    First time I used EAP when coming to a stop around 5-10 mph, I noticed there was a clicking coming from the steering wheel. It also clicks when it begins to accelerate. Putting my ear closer, I noticed it was from the brake or accelerator. This happens every time I'm on TACC or autopilot. It...

    How to get rid of water spots/etches

    I was stupid and used hose water to rinse the car. Also did a stupid thing and washed it in the sun. I tried using vinegar, Meguirs polisher, both of which helped a good bit but the marks are still there. Some are also etched into the PPF but are easier to remove. Besides going to a...

    Steering wheel click

    I brought my red M3 LR to the service center recently for clicks that that I hear from the steering wheel or possibly the accelerator/brake pedals. The noise only comes on when braking or accelerating while on autopilot at low speeds between 5-15 mph. Note this only occurs on autopilot. They say...

    Red - paint quality issues

    Hello all, Picked up my car August 4th at Costa Mesa. Felt rushed, signed paper work within 1 minute. A lot of small paint issues that could probably be fixed with a detail, which I planned to schedule an appointment for until... After I brought the car home, I found this (pictured below)...

    Affordable cover (carport/car tent)

    Hello everyone. About to pick up my red M3 soon. First Tesla. Very, very excited. Anyone park their car outside and thought about purchasing some kind of protection from the sun/rain, etc. with a roof like a tent? My brother has a car tent for his Lexus and the cloth on the roof ripped in...

    FM radio after premium connectivity ends?

    Anyone know whether or not FM radio continues to be streamable even after the premium connectivity ends for those unlucky people who ordered after July 1? That would be absolutely unfair if it does stop since I would rather much prefer a tuner.
