    How to remove soap residue/film from black molding?

    Use that on the black rubber trim, or on the chrome trim only?

    How to remove soap residue/film from black molding?

    i did a search before posting but perhaps i used the wrong key words. I tried a wet wipe and it was not effective. i tried 3 times in the same spot with mild results. I might try the Meguires, thanks.

    How to remove soap residue/film from black molding?

    I went through a touchless car wash about a month ago and apparently they used some shitty soap or wax. I still cannot remove the iridescent soap/wax residue/film from the black molding/trim around the windows. It also did this to my wife's 3, but because she has the older chrome trim, it's not...

    Vendor Show Off Your Aftermarket Model Y Wheels

    I'd really like to see some more MSM w/ aftermarket wheels. I'm leaning towards Titan7 T-S5 in either Machine Black or Satin Titanium OR Martian MW03 in either Satin Black or Gunmetal. I'm looking for a finish that pops against the MSM paint and I'm not sure the Satin Titanium or Gunmental pop...

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    That is great to hear. I'm actually getting the Hankooks installed today on our 3. I just hope they can hold up long term. Continentals don't get close to their mileage warranty on our 3

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    Thanks for the input. What did you end up replacing them with?

    Hankook new iON tire, an "EV" tire (not the same as Kinergy GT)

    I just ordered these at DT and hoping to get installed next week. Simple-Tire.com has these on sale and DT price matched.

    Are your MW03's in Satin Black? I've got MSM as well and was leaning towards Satin Black. the Gunmetal looks great with MSM as well, but i wanted to differentiate between the paint and wheel color.

    Why do you think they are "putting pieces together"? Does it state that somewhere on their website?

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    Great news that it wasn't the wheels, but sucks you had to replace fairly new tires. And thanks for the pic. Would be great if you could provide an update on the Hankook tires in a few thousand miles. They will probably be my next tire. And thanks for the pic of the wheels. I'm debating between...

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Tower's rates went up a ton though? Why not go through Armco? Tower was also terrible to deal with

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Well, i can say, despite the message that went up on Armco's website about a 3-4 week delay, which was posted on their website when I applied does not seem to really be the case, at least not in my experience. I applied on 2.22 and approved on 2.27. It still seems worth it to apply through Armco.

    Post-Delivery Alignment Check

    Yeah, that is really unfortunate. I understand why they can’t warranty it, same reason they don’t warranty a tire when you get a nail. But there are too many examples of poor alignment on low mileage new vehicles. I’m going to take mine shortly after delivery to get checked from an independent...

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    I would approach this in two parallel ways to pinpoint the exact issue. However, if it's a noise, my hunch is it's the tires. 1. Wheels: you can take your wheels to a wheel repair shop and they can verify there is no warping, etc. with the wheels. This would either identify or eliminate your...

    Thanks for the update, Matt. So, to summarize you are happy with your Martian Wheels and would buy them again?

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    Pretty sure your Ubertubrine's are 21" therefore the front tires on your Uberturbine's won't fit your Martian 20"s

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    There is no reason a non-foam tire would cause vibration. I have non-foam acoustic tires on my T-Sportline wheels and there is absolutely no vibration. There is no logic there, by that logic, any wheel setup w/o foam would have a vibration.

    Credit Unions with good rates that accept applicants anywhere within the US?

    Their website says "Due to overwhelming auto loan demand, loan applications may not be reviewed for up to 3-4 weeks. We apologize for this inconvenience." I guess this wasn't an issue for you?

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    Thank you for this. How long have you had the Martians? Let me know how the re-balancing resolves the vibration. Also, post a pic when you get a chance?

    My Tower approval expires tomorrow. Today they told me I would not be able to extend it after being told 3 weeks ago over the phone I would be able to extend it. So....I've applied with Adelfi.

    There will be NO HW4 upgrade for HW3 owners

    This was my exact sentiment. The only thing I can think is that v11 fixes the majority of these situations? And this is the update they are referring to?

    There will be NO HW4 upgrade for HW3 owners

    My sentiment exactly. I will probably keep EAP wrapped up in my loan since will use that more regularly (and it's a much smaller pill to swallow) and pay for fsd sub if/when i decide it's "worth it" at the $99/mo. i can def see the argument you're making to just purchase no EAP/FSD w/loan, but i...

    There will be NO HW4 upgrade for HW3 owners

    Def good points. I don't even need to purchase it monthly to check progression because my 3 has beta and I'll already know how it's progressing. The down side...waiting could make it even more expensive to subscribe monthly or purchase outright if it progresses to a point where I would want to...

    There will be NO HW4 upgrade for HW3 owners

    I'm sure I'm not the only one struggling with the decision to purchase FSD on a vehicle they know will be coming with HW3. I ordered a Y in mid-Jan when prices dropped and I added FSD. Now that HW4 release is eminent, and no upgrade path, I have reverted back to EAP (which is still not cheap). I...

    Yeah, the price seems to vary from SC to SC, but its around that. Local shop is about $120 for me.

    100% aware of Tesla's prices. I've had my 3 aligned at a local shop twice and both times combined cost less than 1 time with Tesla.

    How happy are you with your Martian wheels?

    Looks like you went from 19" Gemini's to 20" Martians? Can you provide some feedback on that switch? I'm thinking about doing the same thing when I get my Y. I ordered with Gemini's with the intention of upgrading to 20" aftermarket wheels. Was wh/m decrease super noticeable? Ride feel? Any...

    Not sure what your local CU is offering, but Tenet Financing is offering 5.3%/72 months which is slightly better than Tesla's rate.

    Model Y initial impressions after delivery

    Although this hasn't been an issue for me in 5 years with my 3, I hear ya on the blind spot warning as "should be included" feature. There is an option to have the front fender cams turn on when you turn on your blinker which is helpful. you can also move that camera pop-up to a couple different...

    Post-Delivery Alignment Check

    I've seen a lot of FB and reddit posts about Y's with 10k miles (for example) with tires that need to be replaced due to poor factory alignment with tread completely gone on inside or outside edges. I realize there could be a lot of other factors influencing wear & alignment (rotation frequency...
