    Please! Talk me out of MX Plaid !!!

    I've been doing the same. I've been contemplating other 3 row EVs and also the Gas/hybrid counterparts. There is no perfect car and you will always find a story with someone who had a lemon or a major issue with a car. I'll probably end up with an X in the end as well.

    Can anyone help check whether your MX's liftgate has a weird curve in the center?

    Maybe someone hit you? That dent is super obvious. I'm sure you would have spotted it if you walked around the car during pickup/delivery.

    Second row seat stuck in the middle

    https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/model-x-second-row-bench-stuck-half-folded.288765/page-3 There is a fix here, but I wouldn't recommend it since you're still under warranty.

    Hansshow Frunk 2021+/refresh

    I'm curious about this as well and was just thinking about this, this morning. Looking at purchasing a Model X and love having auto frunk. I have hannshow on my Model 3 and EV Offer on my Model Y. EV Offer was more expensive but a lot quieter and smoother in operation. They seem a lot closer in...

    Is this a good deal?

    Pretty decent if it's a west coast car. If it's east coast or an area with snow, should be $75k or less.

    Third row seats stuck down - the fix

    Definitely worthwhile to detail the fix for the community. I have things I posted 10+ years ago on Toyota and Lexus forums and I occasionally get random messages from people asking me questions lol. If someone doesn't find a need for your post at the moment, there will be in the future. I...

    New owner

    Yeah, it sucks. The advantage is supposed to be no dealerships to deal with, but their service centers seem to behave like them. I once had to drive 100 miles out to get my transmission replaced with Hyundai because the nearest dealership wouldn't warranty it.

    Try a different service center. I've read people have bad experience at certain service centers vs. others.

    Nightmare situation with 2018 MX suspension

    I'm surprised there are no coilovers kit or standard shocks/springs to convert these cars to static suspension. It's the fix I see everyone do with bmw, Mercedes, etc when it eventually fails.

    Does anyone have the Rivian suv?

    I'm in the Bay area and have only seen 2 R1S and 3-4 R1Ts. I checked out an R1S and it's really nice. The staff said if you order now, you'll get it mid 2024. Idk how accurate that is though.

    Deliveries of $80k X?

    This is definitely true for end of quarter. I got my Model 3 before lots of people at the end of Q3 2018 because I live in Fremont.

    Considering switching MSLR for MXP. Appreciate your thoughts, especially those that have gone MS -> MX.

    Why not replace the Palisade with the X? I think Palisades have been recalled for fire risks. I feel like this recall is same type of issue they did almost 10 years ago for their other cars (probably fuel line leak).

    Replace Rotor and Brake pads for Model X

    I use Autornd/ZEVcentric in Fremont. I also heard The Driveway does good work. I think they're in San Jose.

    My disaster of a delivery experience (No quality control)

    Hah, I feel this. I have a 3 and Y that have no issues. My 3 is 5 years old and Y is 2 years. I'm debating if I should sell my Y and get an X, but I'm still hesitant to do so.

    Help me diagnose possible high wh/mi highway usage

    A quick way to check brake drag is put your hand near the wheels after a drive, it would feel hot/warmer than the others.

    What I sent to Dublin Tesla on May 8 Asking for a replacement / collateral exchange

    What a horrible experience. I guess the good part is they agreed to buy it back and didn't stall several months. My friend had to go the lemon route with Chevy for his Z06. The process took so long, he put 40K miles on it and they bought it back in full lol.

    Will Tesla offer suspension upgrade ?

    If these are entire assemblies, it'll take 2-3hrs to install. If you're quoted longer get a new tech, you're being ripped off.

    NEW MODEL Y 18 inch at Tsportline?!

    I just got tires installed on my TSS tsportline 18's. I put Michelin AS4, 235/55/R18. The ride is even nicer combined with my MPP coils. Michelin's AS tires run at the widest end of the spectrum for their size. The 235's are more like 245. It looks meaty and I have a ton of curb protection...

    FS: Model Y Gemini wheels and caps (Bay Area, CA)

    I have Model Y 19 inch Gemini with aero caps. 2 wheels have a bit of curb rash. Looking for $500. I am in Fremont, CA, available for pickup only.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    Sad you see this still hasn't been resolved. After 9 months of no error, I finally got the error again. I think the combination of being cold and not driving the car for ~1 week set it off. I think I'm just going to get the 12v from Tesla and recycle the Ohmmu. I thought coming back to this...

    MYP 18" T Sport Line tire package!66 Setting in the car?

    19 or 20 have the same tire diameter, so either will work. Depends which look you want. I don't know why Tsportline is using 245/50/R18 when 235/55/R18 is closer to stock diameter.

    Homelink module: garage door closed on the car

    I only use auto open. Everyone mentioning sensors is correct. If sensors are too low, it'll only sense the wheels, therefore leaving the middle of your car open for the garage closing on it.

    Why do people hate Black exterior so much?

    I haven't seen others mention this, but light scratches show up much more pronounced on a black cars. If you detail cars, it's very easy to spot, even if people try to hide it with a coat of wax or ceramic. This is why I will never own a black car. If you want a black car, don't go down the...

    Model Y vs Model 3 Top Hats, Are they the same?

    I believe they're the same. I installed coils on both my Model 3 and Y. The only difference I noticed was the springs are much thicker on the Y

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports - Official factory 'Road & Track' Ohlins kit release, pre-order, specs, RWMS Ohlins accessories, and discussion!

    I know, I have MPP comfort coils right now. I'm wondering if the ohlins might ride better. My wife still complains about the comfort coils set to 14/14 all around.

    Vendor Redwood Motorsports - Official factory 'Road & Track' Ohlins kit release, pre-order, specs, RWMS Ohlins accessories, and discussion!

    Do you have these installed on a Y that you demo? I wonder if there's any difference vs MPP comfort coils

    Installing RM Ohlins shock kit, proper orientation of parts?

    Maybe check redwood motorsports instructions. Their custom kits are built from ohlins shocks, so it may be put together the same. I have MPP coils, so not sure about the ohlins.

    2022 Model Y - Austin Giga Factory - Delivery Experience

    I was just thinking this as well. Is it deliver first then ask for forgiveness type deal? I wonder if this will cause issues later, IE registration isn't valid or something.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    Weird, I now have an alert from 6/28 showing vc front error. It didn't show up a few days ago when I checked. I guess I should expect to start seeing 12v errors pop up soon.

    Skid plate justification

    I've been putting this off and waiting for my tray to fall apart. It's slowly deteriorating at the bolts, so I may just replace sooner than later. The older Model 3's (At least from 2017-2018) have the fiber/cardboard tray. After enough rain/water it eventually starts to fall apart. I think...

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    I'm almost at 5 months from just charging my battery up with no more errors. Several updates and even had the car sit for over 2 weeks not driven. Mine is the v2, bought last year June 2021.

    NEW MODEL Y 18 inch at Tsportline?!

    Curious if anyone ordered the wheels from them with different tire size. 235/55 is closer to stock diameter than 245/50. 235/55 also seems to have more XL tires selection and slightly cheaper.

    Teslarati Quickbandit License Plate Holder

    Glad it got taken care of! I think you received the Model 3 one. I have them for both Model Y and Model 3, they're not interchangeable. The Model Y grill has larger spacing.

    Has anyone successfully retrofit laminated side glass to Model Y?

    If I remember correctly from reading one of those threads, the part numbers for the seals were all the same. You could check Tesla parts catalog to confirm as well.

    Anyone had the roof tinted?

    I originally only had the doors and back window tinted. After a road trip in the summer to Los Angeles from Bay Area, immediately made an appointment to get the windshield and roof tinted. The AC is pretty weak in the car. I go to Fresno (basically a desert) a lot, so it's worth it for me. The...

    NEW MODEL Y 18 inch at Tsportline?!

    Yup, those are the ones I found. They have the same part number in Midnightsun's link too. The company seems like a Canadian Company, so probably that's why it's cheaper in Canada. My guess is T Sportline uses them to manufacture the wheel. Similar to how MPP uses KW (and now eibach for their...

    NEW MODEL Y 18 inch at Tsportline?!

    Could you let us know the wheel weight when you get them? I found them on discount tire, but it's lists them as 28lbs with 1587 load rating.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    Do you have a battery charger you can put it on for a few hours? It might be worth trying. For reasons I don't understand, that worked for me (so far). I haven't had the errors come back in about 3 months and several updates.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    I've recharged my battery for a few hours, did a hard reset and haven't received the error again for over 2 months and 3 updates. I also left my car sitting for a week, which usually triggered the warning. Everything is working normally, so I don't know what the deal is anymore. I would assume...

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    I should clarify. 6 weeks of no errors after charging the battery on a charger and doing the hard reset procedure. Also nightdown_fox said he got the error with the module and new battery, so the module may not have fixed the issue.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    That's disappointing to hear. I'm approaching week 6 of recharging my battery and doing a hard reset. It survived 1 update so far. I haven't received the new 8.2 update yet, but I have a feeling it may break the streak. I don't drive my car a lot, maybe 3-4 times a week for less than 50 miles.

    Ohmmu 12V Battery Feedback

    I'm on week 5 of just charging my battery and doing a hard reset. I did an update last week and no error after the update. Anyone figure out the timing of the tests? Maybe every 6-7 weeks?
