    Issue of having 1 NEMA 14-50 receptacle and 2 EV cars

    I think I got the answer- the app is aspirational and does not really exist yet. So there is no scheduling.

    Issue of having 1 NEMA 14-50 receptacle and 2 EV cars

    Hi - I've been looking at this NeoCharge splitter but cannot for the life of me figure out whether the smart scheduling thing works or not. I have a MYLR but my wife has a Volvo recharge - and for whatever reason, the Volvo is advertised as being able to schedule charging but in reality there's...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Hi all - 9/6 order date, MYLR, Blue, white interior, Gemini wheels, no FSD/tow I ended up taking delivery yesterday 1/19. The car was immaculate both in and out. Came with Intel chip and lead-acid battery which I knew about prior -- when I asked about whether I should give up the VIN in order...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Ugh - I have delivery dates next weekend but a) either my wife or I are both working all the days they have available and b) the SA said it has old chip and old battery. has anyone else been unable to pick up during the delivery window? how long do people have to wait if they initially refuse...

    Selling to Carvana - our experience

    My experience -- sold 2010 Acura MDX with 98000 miles on it to Carvana this past weekend. I had been re-submitting this car for a few months since used car prices are so high. Car is/was great but at near 100K miles I was worried about upcoming big services (water pump etc) and the car at this...

    Hi - Model Y Long Range, Blue / Gemini / White seats, no FSD or tow, order date 9/6/2021 EDD before VIN was 1/21-2/4 So basically we have the exact same dates. Got a text from Tesla yesterday asking for documents to finalize the trade-in of my M3LR Checked the app and I have a VIN! But I see...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Model Y Long Range, Blue / Gemini / White seats, no FSD or tow, order date 9/6/2021 EDD has been flopping around - had stayed pretty constant at 1/18-2/11 but the window tightened this morning to 1/21-2/4. I will prob accept delivery assuming no obvious problems regardless of AMD v Intel...

    September 2021 Order Delivery Dates

    Model Y Long Range, Blue / Gemini / White seats, order date 9/6/2021 Slipped yesterday from Jan 10-Feb 7, now Jan 31 - Feb 28 A little annoying in that some of why I am getting a MY is because used car prices are so high - worried that more delays = lower $ given for my trade-in (2018 M3LR) At...

    How to report a persistent Autopilot problem?

    Not sure if anyone else lives in NYC area, but there is one spot on 87 northbound where Autopilot consistently drops off and the I get the immediate "take over control immediately" piercing audio/video message. It is just as you go under an overpass, with well marked lane lines and no other...

    Sudden Range Drop

    So I went to the SC yesterday and they seem to think there is no problem with the battery. They had no answer why the range is now 290 though. Apparnetly their remote diagnostics team will continue to run tests on it.

    Sudden Range Drop

    I'm also having the same issue and it only seems to be getting worse. During this time I've charged a couple times to 100% and no obvious improvement. The big drops are not specifically correlated with software updates. I have other ongoing issues (bluetooth won't talk to my phone anymore...

    failed update

    just a quick update on this in case others are having the same issue. In addition to the failed software update, my MCU was glitching a lot, also shutting down randomly even in the middle of driving on autopilot. Called service center and they are planning on replacing the entire computer as...

    failed update

    Hi all - sorry if this has been addressed sometime in the past, but my last software update just said "failed". Has this happened to anyone here and does anyone know if there is any recourse for this? Does this indicate something is wrong with the existing software or MCU? thanks in advance

    Autopilot lane change ping-ponging

    Updated to 2019.8.5 a couple days ago - (~24h after 2019.8.4) and it seems better. Interestingly when it is on Nav-on-Autopilot the ping-ponging basically never happens.

    Autopilot lane change ping-ponging

    I don't think that's it at least for me -- did it this morning on my drive to work before the sun was up... but I haven't yet checked whether maybe the glass overlying the cameras needs to be cleaned.

    Autopilot lane change ping-ponging

    Sorry if this is something that has been posted before, but the last couple software updates have not fixed what happens reasonably often for me - when I'm in autopilot (not nav-on-autopilot) sometimes I will initiate a lane change with very well marked lanes and no cars around me, and the car...

    Sunk-in hood

    hi all - I was actually logging in to talk about a good experience re: just this thing, then saw this thread on top. Basically I had a similar issue with the hood -- the left front part of the hood (if you're looking at the car) came up nearly 0.5-1cm and while it wasn't super obvious unless...

    yet another curb rash question, 19" sport wheels (sorry)

    i have to valet park my car in a garage at work, and of course they have destroyed my rims. Was going to try and repair it myself but I can't seem to find touch up paint that matches the sport wheels (I guess there is some Ford touch up paint that matches the aeros, but I can't find anything to...

    real-time traffic no longer showing up - anyone else?

    A few weeks ago I noticed that the red/green colors on the map are no longer showing up. The navigate function still seems to be trying to find the fastest route, but it was useful to see where the bottlenecks were. Anyone else having this issue? I've tried restarting the MCU but no benefit...

    Bug Report: Turn Signal Doesn't Cancel - Seeking others to validate

    co-sign on this issue. My left turn signal "half-press" did 3 signals then off when I first got the car, but within a few weeks it stays on regardless of how much I press it. The right turn signal works correctly still (half-press gives 3 signals, full press has continuous signal until a real R...

    Winter driving thoughts so far

    Same storm for me, same experience with the sensors. I didn't realize I could turn off park assist chime - good tip! I thought my car did ok in the conditions considering there was a layer of ice on the road. I did a little sliding at times but nothing more than a foot or so. Never got stuck...

    First Snow Experiences - North East Edition

    I also was stuck in the snow in NYC yesterday (5.5 hours to go 4 miles! Ultimately turned around and stayed at my brother's place at which point it took another hour to go 1 mile going opposite where everyone else was going). Anyway I have AWD non-P -- did a little sliding at times but zero...

    Help - sensors are haywire!

    In general I'm just very concerned about a central problem causing local issues in things that should be integral to the car's functioning - including safety features like proximity sensors, blind spot monitoring, etc. My car was telling me there was an object 2 feet in front of me even though...

    Help - sensors are haywire!

    well to answer my own question I talked to Tesla service and they said many other people have called in this AM about the same issue and they are working on a fix. Still seems weird that it would go out on a bunch of cars at once with what seems like something that should be local to each car...

    Help - sensors are haywire!

    dunno but seems strange that things like auto-brights and proximity/safety sensors would be a systemic issue since I would imagine all those things are controlled locally. the last software update I did was about a week ago. Not sure.

    Help - sensors are haywire!

    Good morning - Car was working great until this AM when I noted the brights were on even though it was early daylight and cars were in right in front of me. Then noticed that when I got on the highway Autopilot and TACC were not available. Then noticed there were no cars around me on the display...

    Navigate on Autopilot - Observations?

    Have been trying NoA for the last couple days. Honestly it's terrifying to give so much control to the car but it does what it's supposed to do. Agree that merges are very timid. Honestly I'm overall amazed how well it works. I've only had my Model 3 for about 10 days and am still marveling...

    High pitched whine

    thanks for all the replies. I guess i"ll monitor it and see if it gets worse... it does seem like possibly an issue that others have noticed and some have gotten fixed. Seemed a bit better today for whatever reason.

    High pitched whine

    I have a non-P AWD car - I am hearing a relatively quiet but definitely noticeable high-pitched whine when I hit the accelerator. Have noticed it over the last 4-5 days and I don't think it was there before that but am not sure. Does anyone else have that or do I need to contact service? Also...

    what sounds are normal and what's not normal?

    what sounds are normal and what's not normal?

    Sorry - brand new AWD non-P owner here with questions about noises my car makes: 1 - during battery charging is there supposed to be a hum? 2 - i hear a fair amount of whirring and clunks when the car turns on (ie. when I open the door in the AM for the first time) - normal? 3 - when going in...

    AWD delivery thread

    To all those that are still waiting patiently for their Model 3's and haven't owned a Tesla before-- just a few thoughts after finally getting my car 10/20: 1) It is so obvious. and what I mean is that once you get used to it (and i"m still in that process!), it is so obvious that this car is...

    Hi all- so it actually happened- took delivery at Mt Kisco today. Car looked great, basically perfect except one pin sized dimple in the paint that I’m just letting go. Everyone there was super nice. Thanks to everyone here who has “suffered” through all the ups and downs of the waiting...

    dumb question about coatings

    If coatings are so great and obviously so profitable (you can buy CQuartz retail for well <$100 for a bottle that can prob cover 2 cars but most places charge >$1000+ to put it on), why don't carmakers just put it on in the factory as an option? You have to figure they could do it so much more...

    Yeah customer service has been 1000x better since the end of the quarter-- As instructed I called Mt. Kisco again today to get an update on delivery -- car supposed to get there 10/22 or 10/23 - I will prob take delivery 10/24 if it's ready, otherwise 10/28. Starting to feel a little bit real.

    Tesla CPO Experience

    AWD delivery thread

    The fact that in the first week of October a delivery advisor was willing to give me an actual VIN nearly 3-4 weeks in advance of predicted delivery tells me that maybe Tesla has gone back to doing things sort of the same way they started doing them before the huge crush at the end of Q3. My...
