    Lag in "off the line" acceleration

    How about a simple visual warning on the screen to the effect of ‘Object detected. Limited acceleration available’. That way when I am at the lights about to smoke a 911 I know it’s detected something and can play it cool instead! Even better next to the warning on the screen an option to...

    Lag in "off the line" acceleration

    I was about to post having experienced the exact same issue as the original post in the thread on two separate occasions in my Model 3 Performance. However on neither occasion was there anything in front of the car that I might have hit. How far in front of the car does the Obstacle Aware...

    Model 3 Performance Winter Tires

    Thanks for sharing this. I have driven my car in the snow a few more times since the first incident which prompted my original post. Haven’t had any recurring issues. I can only assume that my initial problems were because 1) the car had been in the garage for over a week or 2) the snow was a...

    Has Any P3D+ Owners Gotten Carbon Fiber Spoiler?

    My P3D is wrapped with Xpel wrap. Will the 3M adhesive stick to that or will I need to unwrap the rear and then have it rewrapped post spoiler installation? Thanks

    Model 3 Performance Winter Tires

    I have been driving on them for about a 1,000kms before today though. Today was the first time I drove in the snow though on them. I decided to test them out since I am planning a trip to the mountains this weekend. Now I am unsure if I should drive...Thanks again for all the advice all

    Model 3 Performance Winter Tires

    Update - this problem seemed to go away later on my drive. I was just out to pick up my kid. Very low traction on the snowy roads when I first left my garage. But weirdly when I drove back from the highway onto the same snowy roads on the way back traction was 100% better. Can anyone tell me if...

    P3D Braking scare in the wet...

    Thanks I am going with this advice. I think this was the problem. It was pouring rain and I don’t think I had used the brakes much at all (the actual brakes not the regen). Going forward I am going to tap them a bit more often especially in the wet and see if this helps. Cheers

    P3D Braking scare in the wet...

    I live in BC. And it rains here a lot at this time of year. The other night I drove home in a big rain storm. It’s about a 30min drive on the freeway. At one point towards the end of the drive I had to brake fairly suddenly when someone moved unexpectedly into my lane. The brakes were not...

    Installing Xpel around CF spoiler

    Thanks. Hopefully they will agree to do it at the SC when the spoiler eventually arrives. They refused to put my Tesla badges back on saying they could peel off in the summer...

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    Sorry to answer your question I did drive around for one day with them on and no issues but it wasn’t in snow. I would worry there isn’t enough space between the callipers and the rims and in really heavy snow or ice it could get really gunked up. But what do I know...!

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    I didn’t want to take any chances with warranties etc so am sending them back. That is if Tesla Online Orders EVER reply to my email....$5k CDN out of pocket for months now. So frustrating

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    Tesla SC just emailed me back saying they are sending someone around to take the wheels off. Screw it. I am just going to buy the Tsportline Matt black ones which look awesome anyway. Tesla can give me a refund....

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    Ok thanks. Here is what the Vancouver Tesla SC told me on email so far: “ confirmed with parts department that the 19" winter tire set will not fit your performance Model 3 because the clearance between the rear caliper and rim is not large enough”. I am going to go in tomorrow to have them...

    Performance Model 3 Snow Tires/Rims

    Hi All Well I am gutted. I ordered the 19" Tesla winter wheel package from their online store back in September for my performance model 3 (with the performance upgrade package), only to find out today (after they have been installed by a 3rd party), that they are not compatible. So I guess I...

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    I am not a mechanic or car guy (other than loving driving my Tesla!) so forgive any dumb questions: - when you say they have modified the wheels they are selling How do you mean? The Tesla shop says as I log onto it today still says the 19inch winter wheel package is not compatible with the...

    Tesla states 19" OEM wheels NOT compatible with P3D+

    Sorry to bother. I bought the 19inch wheel winter package from the Tesla website shop before they put the disclaimer about non comparability with the Performance Model 3. I had the wheels fitted earlier this week since I am making a winter road trip this weekend. I have been driving the car just...

    v9 Dashcam thumb drive folder name

    How can I still have two phone chargers set up (as I do now) and also a USB flash drive in use for a dashcam? Has anyone figured this out? If I use a USB splitter on one of the sockets and plug the phone charger and USB drive into it, will both work??
