This has happened to me a few times in the past few months. It is on my way home so I don't need to use the steering assist but it would be a big nuisance if it happens when I do. Will keep an eye on this thread and look for others.

To add to my previous comment. Sometimes sensors do have issues and having Tesla replace mine improved the percentage BT connectivity was successful, but it didn't fix it to 100%. In reading comments on this I realized my car entry and driving sequence is/was really fast. I would get in, grab...

I recently purchased Yokohama YK-GTX 19's for my 3. My Tesla chews through tires so wanted to avoid paying high end prices since they have to be replaced a lot more often than previous cars I have owned. The last set of Continental ProContact RX's only lasted 20K. Prior to that I had the...

Yep, pretty annoying. It also isn’t remembering seat warmer settings and have to reselect it every time. I’d prefer to not have the scorched butt setting ;). First world problems I suppose.

This just happened to me recently and the car took 3 days to fully download the update and was ultimately successful. I have had my M3 for 5 years and have never seen this. Tesla must have different download groups and by luck of the draw you might get stuck in this painfully slow one. Maybe it...

Update: Service Tech came out and fixed for $50.

Thanks for all the information in this thread. I just put in a service appt, hopefully the price discussed here stays the low price or even covered.

Thanks, I will try the silicone lubricant suggestion. I’ve had the Model3 for 5 years and 75K miles and it started in the last month or so. The sound is a little exaggerated and isn’t a pleasant mark of quality fit and finish :). More like the sound of peeling away something stuck together that...

Anyone else experienced a suction sound when opening Model 3 door? This happens mostly on passenger side but I have heard it on other doors & even the driver's door once. Inquiring to see if there are any lubricant or other options to remedy. I searched the forums but haven't found anything yet.

This SC is horrible. Super slow speeds and when we were there at night the overhead parking lights were flicking on and off like a horror movie. I hope another charging location is on Tesla’s list to help service Galveston area travel.

They list the door handle lubrication steps in the above link

Same issue but mine is on the front passenger side. Does anyone know what the door handle should it be lubricated with and where exactly?

Look at this thread for more info. Bluetooth Not Connecting Automatically

The above SC appointment fixed the issue, I wanted to give it a week before I reported back. I can't say if it was all of the parts or just one, but the issue got resolved. One thing I also realized is that when I get in the car I immediately go for my phone to get it out of my pocket. This...

After a few appointment reschedules (for various reasons mine and theirs) my car is in the SC today. This is the service estimate part list. I will update afterwards for success or no success. Correction: Antenna - Bluetooth Passive Entry - remove and replace antenna $120 Parts Replaced or...

Was it the antenna cable on your Tesla or your iPhone?

Lots of possible variables at play here, just seeing if there was any common thread P2D (Pin to Drive) or the seat weight function. About a year ago I turned off pin to drive for awhile and BT seemed to connect more often. I don't really want to be forced to keep a log of every time it does and...

Any updates to resolution?

Here's some more data after looking more in the forums: The Bluetooth connections (you will see multiple with names like Sdf52c35....) are the "phone as key" connections. There are two types of bluetooth being used to connect a mobile phone to the car for two different features and use different...

One question on this thread, how many people are using pin-to-drive security? My Tesla 2018 LR RWD has not been connecting to Audio since very early on after receiving in 2018. I had an appt fix a few issues in 2019 with this being one and the mobile service tech couldn't reproduce. He said to...

+1 vote for this SC if anyone from Tesla is watching this thread. Houston to CO would be so much less stressful with this stop. Trinidad/Amarillo are the only places required to charge to 100% because of it. Tesla has to see a large # of 100% charges reported at those two SC’s.

We were there two weeks ago. Nice place, none of the restaurant workers were wearing masks which was fairly shocking to see since most places seemed to be taking it seriously. It is a great stop overall, good bathrooms and decent selection of food options if you aren’t vegetarian or willing to...

I disabled pin to drive which seems to help, it happens sometimes but nearly the same frequency so it might have to do with the timing of that. Do you have pin to drive enabled?

@jamnmon66 Resolved?

Tesla Tech couldn't find anything, but my iPhone did reproduce the issue which was a relief that he could see it in action. They might replace the BT module in the armrest but not confirmed. Some more details. Bluetooth Phone Key works great for me to unlock the car. version 2020.24.6.9 2018 LR...

@SDSeth Did this ever get resolved for you? Having similar issues.

I am getting intermittent (more than 50% of the time) "No Device Connected" in the Tesla Audio app when I get in the car. I have to go into the Bluetooth portion and manually connect my iPhone which is already listed as an option but just not actually connected. After that it shows up connected...

I have front and back sunshades from Tesla and they both work great. Definitely a good option in Summer and on extended road trips.

I had the creaking that was ridiculously loud. For me the creaking could be reproduced easily when turning the steering wheel. Got an appt with the SC and they replaced the upper control arm under warranty . Much better now! I’m not embarrassed to pull out of my driveway anymore. Not a very good...

Mine is in the SC and they report it is the control arm as well.

I bought the Tesla sun shades in May 2019, and they do a good job of reducing heat in the hot summer. Prior to installing I could feel heat radiating from the roof glass and after installation I haven't felt it since. Tinting with Xpel also worked wonders, parked interior temps don't go nearly...

You're good, the only true way to know the range is to do a couple of cycles of 95%+ and down to below 20%+. The only reason to do that is for a long road trip. It depends on your usage, daily driving of 50 miles won't give the computer enough data to calculate so it might seem like it is off...

A similar thing happened to me when picking my son up from soccer practice in May of 2019. There was a Dad and his son getting out of my car when we walked up. He was surprised to find it wasn't his car as his was 4-6 spots down. We were both needing to go so we didn't do any additional testing...

This a good idea since going forward people new to this thread or searching for it would be better off with Henrietta in the name to reduce confusion. Who owns the thread or who can change it?

After cycling about 3+ times to 90-95% and down to 10-15% my 100% range is back up to 312 miles from 292-295 it had been reporting. I had been charging nightly to 80% for 9+ months and it looks like it needed to break out of the box it was in. I also switched from charging at 48A to 24A, not...

Thanks everyone for the info! This helps my confidence with the Colorado Springs to Amarillo trip. Just looked on Plugshare and Dumas looks to have an RV option as well. I realize it was pretty off-topic, but thanks for responding, this community is great! Back on topic, it will be amazing to...

Does the accessory plug provided in the M3 work in the Dalhart RV park? Planning a trip to CO and just want to make sure if I need to buy any accessories.

Got the AO matte and it was a straightforward install after watching their video, would recommend. Didn't realize I still had a screen protector on from the factory which was a nice surprise. My screen had a few tiny bubbles and some scratches but in the course of cleaning the screen to prep...

I'm in the same boat. My 100% calculates to 292-295miles. Coincidentally, I took delivery the same day August 28th, 2018. I have a Tesla charger at home that I have consistently charged the M3LR to 80%. I have charged to 100% 3-4 times for road trips, and supercharged only on those trips. I have...

It is a bit ridiculous when they go into insane mode at startup, that is a funny scene you painted though.

@TEG , where is the subwoofer located and is it easy to access and check the plug? Did you test after pushing the plug back in?

Deep bass still not there after 50.6, huge bummer. Was reminded today when listening to a song, that in my wife's former Nissan Murano, put out some nice bass. In the 3 there was 5-10%. Was putting off logging an issue since it seemed like it would be a fixable software issue by now, but will...

Applied 2018.48.12.1 last night and bass is still neutered on my 3 as well. Not a huge issue but would like to have the car shaking bass back when wanted.

Interesting that they moved the Model 3 to 2 year maintenance schedules from the 1 year for S & X. If it's not really needed better to not waste time to bring it in. If there are issues it will be brought in off schedule anyways.

Good list of improvements. These might help: Fix the autosteer nag so you just have to touch the wheel, not wiggle it with force. - Use either scroll wheels, volume up and down, etc. Listing of currently available spaces at superchargers - perhaps with a number next to the map icon. -latest...

This thread needs a sticky, or at least turned into a list, extremely helpful. Has anyone been able to use auto park when backing into a parking space? It popped up once for me but only when I was already lined up to back in. Couple more that have probably been listed but will readd them 1...

Neutered bass issue has appeared for me as well after upgrading from v42.4 to 46.2. Is there an easier way to report than calling in?

Patience is definitely a virtue with Tesla. Tesla is trying to scale up a complex manufacturing company on the fly and there will be pain involved. Looks like there needs to be some improvement in communication. They are just taking it from so many sides in the media I imagine they are hesitant...

Just wanted to add some positive experiences to thread. A Tesla rep called yesterday to bump up my delivery in Houston earlier than expected. Ordered 8/1/18 (Tesla reached out to start the process soon after) Bank payment conf 8/18/18 (this delay was just getting the loan processed from my bank...
