    2021.4.15.12 now...?

    My 3 updated to .4.10 just a couple of days ago, then updated to .4.15.12 this morning. my Y updated to .4.18 yesterday. There definitely isn’t any order to the releases. no new features have been noticed on any. And I haven’t come across any animals in the Y yet to see that “change”

    Last update 48.26 Netflix [not working]

    I always just touch the battery icon, so I’ve never run into this peobblem. But a very interesting observation. And more proof that this was a very half baked UI.

    Difficulty swiping trip and tire pressure cards in new driving visualisation [2020]

    I’ve turned the heat up trying to do this, and I was nowhere near the heat. the only thing I like about this update is the bottom menu, but it still has its flaws. I can’t really swipe right to raise the volume anymore as the volume is now so close to the edge. I can lower the volume...

    Last update 48.26 Netflix [not working]

    I’ve noticed the loading time is a lot longer now. To the point where I think it’s frozen, but it’s actually still loading. it’s taking about a minute on my 3

    Are SR3s hard to sell? [tesla model 3 SR / SR+]

    Sadly there really isn’t a good method to see degradation. The system is using an educated guess. And the reported number is thrown off by seasonal changes. I have about 16mi more range in summer then winter according to the BMS This is why I leave my car in % rather then remaining range.

    Precondition car plugged in vs not plugged in

    This is my experience as well. If I didn’t leave myself enough time to sufficiently warm the car with your step 1, I have to use your step 2. Sometimes I’ll set the temp higher then I’ll need, but not “HI” to give it a little extra, but still have it cycle.

    Are SR3s hard to sell? [tesla model 3 SR / SR+]

    I was curious about this too. But I think quite a few of them will be leases which will get returned to Tesla. Only time will tell.

    Mt Vernon IL to Louisville Ky

    The 3P is pretty bad on range compared the anything with stock wheels. Our model y feels like it could easily out distance our 3 by 50 miles. A lot of this has to do with resistive heater in the older 3 and the heat pump in the Y. make sure you do a good solid prewarm, set tire pressures...

    Badly missing the lane change feature in Y (with no FSD package)

    I think you’re missing the point of subscription. No matter the price, it’s an ongoing income for the life of the company. It creates stability, that is more valuable then a large chunk of money at once. It has also been proven in the last few years that there is more money to be made with...

    Badly missing the lane change feature in Y (with no FSD package)

    This is the boat I’m in. I have FSD on one car, and was hoping EAP might come back for the other car. Time will tell. EAP is best bang for buck in many (not all) respects.

    Favorite part about 2020.48.26... changing the charging threshold

    Go to Settings > Display > to a little toggle near your temperature and psi settings where it says “energy” and kms/miles or something like that. I can’t remember what it is without going to the car. But once you switch it will change the battery indicator to % instead of distance remaining...

    this has to do with the battery being colder it will go back

    there is supposed to be a subscription for FSD coming soon. You’ll be able to test it, if you choose you want to.

    2020.48.x

    It’s now installed in my Y, but hasn’t gone to my 3 yet. My 3 is over 2 years old, don’t know if that will make a difference.

    Badly missing the lane change feature in Y (with no FSD package)

    I’m worried about this. I have FSD on our model 3 and just picked up a Y to go with it, but no FSD since my wife doesn’t even use regular cruise control. Figured for how irregularly I’ll driver her car, I won’t mind. But time will tell. I may subscribe occasionally for long trips as we...

    Free FSD for 3 Months!

    Didn’t read entire thread, just trying to help inform people if it hasn’t already been said. if you go to upgrades in your Tesla app there are the tabs for “Eligible” and “Purchased” if you go to purchase, it will say what your car has on it. mine says “full self driving capability” and...

    Definitely only OG headlights still on Model Ys in the lot today. Just picked ours up and ably saw model 3s with the new lights.

    I’m hoping so too, picking up my Y tomorrow and would like it as fresh as possible. Already have the old lights on my M3P

    Does the $2,000 Acceleration Boost upgrade for 0-60 primarily, or increase passing speeds too?

    How much is accelerator response changed? And is it as touchy as the performance the performance response? I have a performance 3 and know how snappy the accelerator is, and I like how the “normal” response was on the non performance Y. I don’t want the performance accelerator response on a...

    Windows lower a bit after closing door.

    Not so new, it’s been doing this for 2 years now if I remember correctly. It is either temperature sensitive, or something Tesla adds back in every fall when temperatures drop in specific regions.

    Model 3 2018(with FSD) vs 2021(without FSD)

    A few quick points, I have an 18 with FSD. I love the car and would not replace it. if I was faced with buying new or old however, buy the new. There have been enough small changes (visible and invisible) to make the car very different. Eg laminated glass as one of the more noticeable. I...

    Megaphone mode?

    I went out to pick up some milk last night, I saw 3 Tesla’s while I was out. Was it weird that I was going for one to fart at me? Sadly nobody did. But they may have all been older Tesla’s without the speaker. Or were all waiting for me to fart at them, but they would have been waiting in...

    Megaphone mode?

    I love on an access road that everyone treats like a sidewalk. I would kill to be able to fart in their direction so that they knew I was behind them. my car was built before the speaker though.

    Does the $2,000 Acceleration Boost upgrade for 0-60 primarily, or increase passing speeds too?

    Sorry to beat a dead horse and bring up power again. You don’t just add the two horsepowers together. The motors are different and are geared differently, so they don’t hit peak power at the same time. Peak horsepower added together makes big numbers, but aren’t representative of what is...

    Range anxiety about traveling in Mexico.

    I plugged in the route for my older performance model 3 which doesn’t have near the efficiency of the newer 3 and Y. With my degradation, less efficient car, and family packed in, A Better Route Planner told me I would get to your destination with 3% left from a 90% battery at start. So I’m my...

    Original delivery was 1-2 weeks, then suddenly 5-9 weeks

    You will enjoy it. This will be our second one. It’s been a good experience. Some minor build quality things here and there, but with how little we have to go to the dealership for other things, it’s the easiest car I’ve owned. We are going from one Tesla to two. No more gas stations...

    Range anxiety about traveling in Mexico.

    Have you used the PlugShare app? It’s showing several destination chargers on route. there’s one that was doing 27mph on a model S and they charge slower then the 3/Y. This was in Santa Ana. It would break up your drive well. so if you stopped there for example, and had a nice lunch near by...

    That makes sense. What layout did you order? Is this your first Tesla?

    Original delivery was 1-2 weeks, then suddenly 5-9 weeks

    That’s my guess. While there’s high demand in Vancouver BC and it’s metro area, the population of the area is just under 2.5 million people. California will probably get everything rolling off the line for the next week I’m guessing.

    My delivery estimate has disappeared altogether now. I only have the registration number now. So we will see what happens. I’ll update when I know more.

    Fresh Air Intake Upgrade

    Screen will work, but may do some damage to the surrounding foam. (Not a hard thing to replace if it ever comes up)

    Original delivery was 1-2 weeks, then suddenly 5-9 weeks

    That’s kind of my thought as well, “this was meant to happen.” I’ll happily take one a few weeks late. But for some people who have waited several months, that’s crazy! Sorry to hear for anyone who has been pushed back a few times.

    Model Y Stealth Performance

    Congrats on the purchase! I’ve had a performance 3 with the upgrade package (PUP) for over 2 years now and it still regularly puts smiles on my face. You will be happy with your choice. And the updates in the car are noticeable compared to 2 years ago.

    Model Y Stealth Performance

    Because stealth is so rare and sought after, he’s doing someone a favour by offering it here. At least I assume that’s the situation.

    Original delivery was 1-2 weeks, then suddenly 5-9 weeks

    Yikes! Fingers crossed! We are in Vancouver BC, so we tend to be higher priority then some other areas, so hopefully the wait won’t be too bad. Glad we haven’t sold our other car yet. May wait until the keys are in hand to sell.

    Original delivery was 1-2 weeks, then suddenly 5-9 weeks

    Anyone else have this experience? I ordered December 15 and everything suggested 1-2 weeks for delivery. Suddenly this morning it switched to 5-9 weeks. This was sad and disappointing. It’s not the end of the world as I know the end of year push can result in inconsistent build quality...

    Upgrade from Model 3 - questions.

    I have the performance 3, so the suspension and wheel combination make for a somewhat rough ride (still fairly pleasant in my opinion) so the Y with the 19” wheels get better. I suspect as others have pointed out, the LR model 3 with 18-19s would be more comfortable then the Y. Also, nothing...

    Upgrade from Model 3 - questions.

    What isn’t fair about comparing the same drivetrain and it’s modernized efficiencies? If we didn’t compare things to history, we would never move forward! I might have agreed with you if you had argued “why are comparing a 3 to a Y?” As they are apples and oranges.

    Santa Mode

    I wrote a nice long message about my test drive experience with a Y. And of course when I went to post, the forum logged me out and then froze. All was lost. What was a long story, is now a short story. We have a Model Y coming soon to accompany our 2018 Model 3 performance. it’s...
