    Best color in the cloudy PNW?

    I have red with white interior. Had it wrapped/ coated as it didn't get to stay in the garage. This makes it easy peasy to keep it clean and looking good. Looking at all the other 3s driving around this winter in the PNW, I only once thought a white one with deeply tinted windows looked good...

    Did the dash panel for the white interior?

    Sorry, title should read: did it change? I took delivery September 2018 for a P3D+ with white interior... sadly someone hit me in an uncontrolled intersection a month later and it had been in the shop for 4 months after that. I have had it back for a month and now notice the dash is white -...

    Autopark

    it works well when it has the right conditions (and i actually prefer not to park between 2 cars if i can help it). However, i like to use it when i want to finish my coffee. but i don't trust it when people or cars are going by...

    Feedback from BMW or other premium brand converts?

    My performance 3 leaves my husband's Alpina B6 in the dust, though his car is simply BEAUTIFUL and luxurious(I guess it's fast too). He likes the heavy noisy feel when he drives his car. But with my car, I sometimes wonder if my wheels are even touching the ground. We picked up his Alpina in...

    P3D+ Sheet metal pop sound

P3D+ VIN55xxx. all 3 times occurred while driving, this last time was softer - I took note of the conditions: turning left and going up a steep hill (there are a lot where I live), less than 20 miles per hour, heat and rear defog were on (I have been frugal...

    Model 3: Turn Signals... ARGH!

    mobile tech came out to address my car told me they made a new turn signal stalk but priority is for new cars over service right now. *shrug* Tesla 3 drivers will just get a reputation for perpetual left turn signaling / crazy left then right signaling

    Driver door takes extra effort to close?

    mobile tech came by this morning - said it was an issue with the latch, not the striker, and ordered a new latch. also said he's fixed a few of these already, always driver side door... i'm wondering if i should hold my breath... at least the car drives nicely and looks awesome...

    Driver door takes extra effort to close?

    Thanks! I had searched for threads that may have mentioned something similar. I am suspecting my car may have been rejected previously and modified as the VIN was about 30xxx lower than the others that were beginning delivered around the same time? Not sure but as I'm realizing things about it...

    Today I went back in time.

    The B6 Alpina is quiet and comfortable. I've realized BMW's are best enjoyed when driven on the Autobahn. But I'll admit I couldn't wait to drive my Tesla the entire time!

    Driver door takes extra effort to close?

    I'm sending an email. That's the quickest way I've gotten a response thus far. I've got a long thread with my SC already - initial response seems to have been prompted after escalating it online.

    Driver door takes extra effort to close?

    Whew - glad to know I'm not crazy. Though I'm sure my SC must hate me because I've already been complaining to them about my defective turn stalk and demanding it be fixed everyone else's on this forum. Currently they are just humoring me/ stalling since they told me they ordered the part and...

    Today I went back in time.

    Yes, I used to love our BMW X5. Now it hurts to drive it and all I can think the entire time is,"I can't wait to get back to my Tesla. "

    Driver door takes extra effort to close?

    Trying to figure out if it's just me, or does the driver door require extra oompf to fully close? Just had the car since 9/22, but noticed it didn't lock because the driver door hadn't been fully closed, so now I wind up having to really slam it shut. I'm worried I'll walk away one day and a...

    Driver Centric Center Display

    @chojn1, I'm so curious as to what your day job is - you should seriously be working for Tesla in their design/ ergonomics division!

    My center console

    Hi @chojn1 I hope I can raise my son to be as creative, productive, and generous as yours! I am also hoping to join the growing list: phone holder (horizontal), 3/4 sunglass bin, 1 coffee cup holder, and 1 water bottle holder would be so nice. Let me know if they get to me. Thanks!

    What's your reasoning behind your color choice.

    Red. White interior... and I'm probably going through my mid life crisis. I just want to have fun and this car is ALL that.

    PSA - left turn signal doesn't reset - defective steering control module

    I had sent an angry email to my service center rep saying exactly that everybody else was getting their steering columns replaced with resolution of the issue and other service centers not being aware of a software fix. she's more ordering a replacement stalk but told me this has not fixed the...

    PSA - left turn signal doesn't reset - defective steering control module

    THIS EXACTLY! So why is my service center telling me that this is a software issue?!? How do I approach this to get the stupid thing fixed?

    PSA - left turn signal doesn't reset - defective steering control module

    so i have this with a 55x vin i picked up about 2 weeks ago. i was told by my service center that this is a known problem and they are waiting for a software fix. why is everybody else getting their hardware replaced if this is a software bug? used to be that the left turn signal just didn't...
