    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    I am running into the same issue. The SC aren't accepting the videos as proof and they want a tech (most of which have bad hearing because of the jobs they are in) to hear it in person. Also the techs are saying the car is safe to drive so there aren't any issues. I agree that the car seems...

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Fremont Service Center When I brought in my MYLR 2023 which is only 2 months old, I did a drive with a tech. Even before hearing the sound via my video or doing the drive he immediately "predicted" that if it's what he thinks it is, "its normal". I played the video in which I could clearly...

    What is this high pitched cricket like noise?

    Hi All I am having the same issue with my MYLR that I got in Feb 2023. I just dropped it off at the service center yesterday in Fremont, CA and did the drive with the tech. The tech dismissed the issue as the sound being "normal". After finding this thread I sent a message linking this...

    Yea I actually found another scratch too. I still took delivery and hopefully the service center won't be too much of a pain to deal with to fix these issues.

    They texted me today to see if I could pick it up today. I did since I live 15 min away from the factory. The car had a paint defect that they will have service fix but other than that the car was decent.

    I think your material of $400 and actual labor (installer cost) of $250 might be close. I think what you are not factoring in is the Tint Company's overhead costs (rent, utilities, marketing ,etc), then add the "owners cut", then actual profit for the company.

    Thanks. I’ve installed xpel on the front half of my Honda pilot with a diy kit before and it was fun but tough to get things lined up perfectly. It was a kit so the edges aren’t wrapping the panels so you can see the edges. I’ve got a white MY on order so I want wrapped edges this time so you...

    Thanks. I actually called the 3 installers that were listed on the xpel website as certified installers and their prices are as I listed. I think the large price difference is because of the huge cost of living differences between regions. The labor costs here in CA are crazy.

    You can’t get xpel full PPF wrap for $2k in the SF Bay Area. I’ve been quoted, for Xpel / stek , front only $2k and full car between $4k - $8k. It’s crazy here in SF. You might be able to get it cheaper for cheaper material.

    Has anyone gotten any updates on the Gateway 2 in the US? A tesla customer service rep told me in Dec 2019 that they had tentative plans to roll out the Gateway 2 in the US in March 2020. Does anyone in the US have a confirmed Gateway 2 installed or anyone have permit plans in the us in the...

    Northern California PW installs BUMPED to 2020!!

    Powerwall Install from Semper Solaris norcal

    Has anyone used Semper Solaris for their powerwall install? How was their quality of the install? Was it a clean install? I met with them last week and they are suggesting 3 PWs with the SGIP coming in cheaper than Tesla Energy for 2 PWs and not SGIP. Any thoughts on this company from...

    Independent Powerwall installers

    I also contacted Tesla early this week about adding 2 PWs to my Tesla PV system too. They quoted me exactly what they quoted you $17,100 plus tax. I submitted my photos through their web portal as well and now just waiting for a design. My advisor said they are pretty backlogged and will...

    Independent Powerwall installers

    Totally makes sense. He was quote each PW was 11,600 inclusive of install and hardware. So that just means they make more profit when you buy more PWs since the work is about the same. Good point. Just not sure if there is any truth about the "large scale energy storage". I was reading...

    Independent Powerwall installers

    I just met with a third party installer. He claims that he just got word that there was additional funds for the SGIP but it still wasn’t guaranteed and people were still on the waitlist. He was quoting about $23k for two PWs with 30% tax rebate and possible $5,800 SGIP. So total about $16k...

    Stuck with 100amp Service from PG&E. HELP!!

    Stuck with 100amp Service from PG&E. HELP!!

    Hi @Jedddelucia We have a 30amp PV backfeeding into our 100 AMP service and this was approved by our building department. The 30 AMP PV backfeeds into the 125AMP rated subpanel. So based on the 120% rule you can in theory backfeed 50 amps into the 125 amp rated subpanel but Tesla was telling...

    Consumption VS Solar Production Tracking

    Interesting.... so how do the people with only a PV system get that cool real time visualization of the PV system vs home consumption vs what's being pushed back to the grid and seeing where the power is flowing in real time?
