    Best climate control to heat and maintain heat during below freeze temp?

    Don’t know when this was implemented, but in extreme cold I am seeing an auto defrost cycling every few minutes or so. Also (seemingly not as new) is the quick defrost upon entering the car and closing the door. This is awesome! I previously would have major issues while driving with windshield...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    With regards to my recent posts in this thread, in the image above: The timeframe shown as “1” is where I had been charging immediately when getting home for the day/night (range estimates were pretty poor). In “2”, I switched to scheduled charging at 3 AM (approx 6-10 hours after a typical...

    How to be a Good Steward of Your FSDBeta Access

    What is the Tesla FSDBeta team looking for from us? What feedback is automatic (i.e. Tesla retrieves it to further refine or develop features), and what can we purposely do to support the software team's progress (in terms of feedback - i.e. "Video Record" button, email feedback, etc). I know...

    Who with a score of 100 and more than 100 miles is still waiting for FSD roll out?

    No longer waiting. I hit 100 mid-day on Sunday. Got invite email about an hour and a half ago, and now installing 2021.32.25!

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    So after a little over 2 weeks, estimated 100% (TeslaFi) range is around 292 now. I just realized there was an additional variable that I can't account for, which was software upgrade 2021.24.10 happening right around the same time I went to scheduled charging and 80%. 2018 Performance, VIN...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Fun little experiment to try: My projected range had been trending down over the summer, to around 278. I generally finish my daily driving between 6:00 - 8:00 PM, and have been immediately charging to 90%. Recently, I had a new low where my range had shown 275. I then changed my charge level...

    From 2021.4.18.10 to 2021.4.21.3 WHY?

    I’m on 2021.4.18.11 (RADAR) and just got 2021.12.25.7. I was starting to wonder how and if I would get back to hanging out with the cool kids at the front of the line. Before my last update I was always one of the early ones, but between then and now I’ve been sitting on the sidelines watching.

    This is fantastic. Running on a Pi and am impressed. Trying to extensively search but am having a hard time with this: What are the units for "cost" in the Geo-Fences setup for locations? I'm trying to add my home rate (in USD) at $0.10828 per kWh. This results in everything being off by roughly...

    RWD - Noise under acceleration only

    It may not be that bad. Tesla fixed mine at the big Tesla body shop in Pomona in January 2019. They only needed to re-torque on mine (2018 performance model, took delivery in August ‘18). No spare parts back then is right. They basically had to wait until the build lines shut down to run in and...

    Vendor Model 3 Wheel Fitment by GetYourWheels

    Needed to follow up on this. Jason sent another set of the Ohm lightning wheels and they had the same exact problem (don't put them on and torque them down or you'll have a hell of a time getting them off). From all the photos I took it looks pretty obvious that they weren't machined properly...

    another Tesla killer that doesn't quite live up to the initial hype

    That wasn't a recall situation, that was press citing poor braking, and Tesla said what evs, we can do better. Update pushed.

    Real world charging speed on 5-20 @ 110v

    In the process of relocating my wall charger which I have on a 60A circuit, so I've been using a 5-15 which was so slow. Bought a 5-20 plug with a 25 ft extension cord for the mobile charger and a 20 A circuit. Charger configures for 16A max draw at around 118V (~1.9 kW). This equates to about 7...

    2020.20.12 Release Notes?

    I actually stated exactly what I intended to state, update will install when my car is in the garage connected to WiFi. Ya it will download first, I'll also have to select install and when to begin, but I didn't think I needed to set that stage.

    So yesterday I decided it was time to remove swap my all seasons tires/wheels (mounted on the factory 20" performance wheel) back and remove my Ohm Lightning wheels with the Michelin winter tires. Haven't really driven much since March and summer is creeping up on us already. All four wheels...

    I'm fairly certain I don't have lowered front suspension on my P3D

    definitely make sure both cars are square on equally flat surface. Are your wheels matte black powder coated?

    Model 3 Performance - charged to 100% shows 293 miles range. Why?

    My P3D is in this range too, typically 256-258. July '18 build with 26.5K miles. No changes after putting 18" wheels with winter tires on.

    I need to know about your rattles....

    Hope this helps someone: for over a year I had an intermittent (but fairly regular) rattle which I thought was coming from the drivers side dash near the windshield, perhaps even in the corner near the A pillar. I recently discovered it to be the top plastic piece covering the steering column...

    Tesla model 3 collision repair - hit by improper lane change driver

    I'd say $15K is a good estimate. A much less complicated repair by Tesla to the rocker panel area (cutting, welding, painting) costs a little over $8K.

    Winter Tires on Model 3

    Definitely less traction. Had a few moments with heavy acceleration where I unintentionally induced drifting. I think wet (above freezing) conditions are not great either with sudden acceleration. Have not had snow again yet since I put these on, so really hoping they shine as snow tires. I...

    Vendor Model 3 Wheel Fitment by GetYourWheels

    Less traction for sure, so far only noticable on dry roads with spirited driving. More efficient for sure, but I don't have any good comparison data points other than looking at energy usage and seeing less usage per mile for particular routes. Finally, no spacers or rings with these wheels...

    Mileage means less in an EV. I don't care if 3K or 6K has passed, or 20K or 30K. No service intervals and I'm not worried about it's clock ticking down like I used to with my ICE cars. I had to look (in the Tesla app just now), but I've put over 24K on my Model 3 in ~ 15 months of ownership...

    Black 18" Wheels Machined for P3D Hubs

    Good info, thanks! I'll check into these guys. Did these wheels require any rings/adapters to deal with the 3mm lip around the 64.1mm center bore? What is "RETAINING CLIP FOR AL-P RINGS"? I'm having a hard time understanding what the TireRack configurations are that make the wheels work...

    Windows are fogging up constantly!

    Manual adjustments can be done, suboptimally, but point is auto needs to allow top which would drastically improve windshield fog and freeze issue. This is my second winter with my P3D, and manual mode juggling temp and blower speed is a real pain to keep external and internal windshield clear...

    Windows are fogging up constantly!

    Biggest problem I have found is that auto doesn't engage top windshield vent. If Tesla could just enable auto to stay engaged when manually selecting vent options I think it would solve my problem. Edit: I should clarify, my issue is the windshield fogging, and also ice forming in windshield...
