    Windshield wiper automatically turn on.

    Been using the one shot on the left stalk for years. 2018 LRM3 pretty much the same on screen interface as the Y, I think. After the left stalk one timer, it brings up the "wiper menu" on the touch screen. No hunting for it on the touch screen. Yes, it's hard to believe that a techno cars like...

    What Do People Use to Protect/Clean the Wood on the Dash?

    It is wood. Check out It is real wood. Check out what 03DSG said on 4-5-2016. I have never done anything to my 2018, but use a damp microfiber.

    No AM radio?

    I bought my m3 in September 2018. I have no plans to get rid of it, I love it. The first year I spent a lot of time on these forums. Great information I really appreciate. Back then, I never found anyone who didn't say that the infotainment wasn't the best thing since sliced bread. Love...

    Walkaway lock at home ... I don’t want it

    I would love to use walk away, everywhere but at my home. I don't understand why I can't do that. Sentry mode is enabled everywhere BUT when its home. Doesn't seem like a stretch to do the same for WA

    Will Elon give Autopilot free for 2018 or early 2019 buyers

    Thanks for the information. Wow, $8000 is a lot of money. I know there has been lots of discounting since I got my car in Sept. 2018. I have auto park, summon, traffic aware CC. They want $4000 to upgrade to FSD. Seems kinda high, especially since I have already paid $56,000 before taxes.

    Will Elon give Autopilot free for 2018 or early 2019 buyers

    When I purchased my m3 LR in September 2018, I paid $5000 for what I understood as FSD. I have been told that I purchased "enhanced auto pilot", not FSD. Any one remember what they paid for FSD?

    Day 1 accessories?

    There is another product that is also excellent. It's came "Bandit" license plate holder. It is very similar, but a bit more stable. I have had mine since September 2018.

    Windshield bubbles

    I would clay bar the windshield. It is a difficult piece of glass to get clean.

    Sunroof tint

    The roof lets in very little heat compared to the windshield. Here in south Texas we get HOT weather all summer long. I put my hand near the top of the of the glass and I feel some heat from the sun, but nothing compared to what I feel when I move my hand a few inches towards the windshield...

    For those of you with a ceramic coating...

    I used HydroSilex Recharge Ceramic coating when I got my m3 in September. Its a DIY ceramic coating. Super easy to apply. Spray on, wipe off. I applied it twice a couple of weeks apart. It lasted pretty for most of the winter. It feels as slick as any other ceramic coating I have felt. I...

    Model 3 radio reception issue

    My reception just sucks. This is my first complaint about the "radio". There isn't any stations that I listen to, that doesn't drop out on a regular basis. Because of the limits of the system, I listen to many out of market stations. After the station cuts out, sometimes its 15-20 seconds...

    A clean windshield can decrease your wh/mi

    I'm no cosmetologist, but I think the temperature and humidity play a big part in window fog.

    DashCam - Caught accident

    Riding a bike is dangerous. They can be difficult to see. A long time ago I rode, but gave it up largely because of to many close calls. Doctors and nurses call them done-rcycles. Sometimes it jost doesn't matter if your right or wrong.

    Tesla Wall Connector Installation

    If you can afford a $50k car, you can afford a $400-$800 electrician. Killing yourself or burning down your home are a possiblity, if you have no idea what your doing. Nobody wants to see someone get hurt.

    iPhone keeps falling off charging platform while charging

    I just bought one. Looks like a solution to something that should have been fixed at the factory.
