My wife bought a new Model Y LR last year after her Audi Q5 was wrecked by a distracted teenager. The Y is supposedly equipped with the "comfort" suspension, but to me the interior noise and the ride quality are very disappointing. The suspension feels almost as stiff as a Porsche 911's and...

I just noticed an ~18" crack in the front roof panel glass. No roof racks or external impacts (as far as I know) were involved.... Just my luck, I guess. My car is a 10/18 build. Question: Is this a "go to Tesla service" sort of repair or can typical automotive glass repair shops handle this...

I currently have a 2nd Generation Wall Connector with the shorter (8.5') cable. We're adding a second Tesla to the garage soon and the cable won't reach the other parking space. I was thinking: 1) Sell the existing wall connector on eBay/Craigslist/whatever and buy a new one with a longer...

My VISA card on file with Tesla is expiring next month so I went to the app to try to update it, however, it won't let me update or delete it because it appears to think I've got an active subscription which depends on it (Premium Connectivity). I don't. Has anyone else seen this? This seems...

Found a permit on the Tustin website for yet another new Supercharger installation. I don't think any construction has started yet. Address is 1198 Irvine Blvd, the shopping center with Cafe Rio, Rock 'n' Brews, Trader Joes, etc. 16 stalls. Great location. Link...

2018 LR AWD, 28K miles. How much motor/gear/drivetrain noise do your cars make? I believe one (or both) of the motors in my car is/are getting noisier over time. You can very clearly hear gear noise proportional to the car's speed. Doesn't matter if you're accelerating, coasting or slowing...

Is the Continental ProContact RX still the OEM tire of choice? What does a new Model 3 with the 19" wheel option come with? Just looking to see if I should (or can) get the same tires as what the car came with when new. I would prefer something Tesla-specific (i.e., with the foam inner...

https://www.motortrend.com/news/bmw-ix-m60-brushed-electric-motor-tech-deep-dive/ My first thought is, "Ah, well of course the Germans would put a wear item deep inside the powertrain that will eventually cost a fortune to replace." Curious to know what others think of this choice of technology.

Hi all, My car's developed a really loud and annoying creak/rattle that comes from the back seat. Specifically, it's coming from the latch mechanism inside the seatback (the bigger "60%" side, aka driver's side). If the seat is folded forward, there's no noise. If the seat is latched into...

Is there a way to edit an existing post? I'm the OP of a pretty long thread and I'd like to update the first post in the thread with new information. As it is, newcomers see the original post and reply to it directly, not knowing that several pages into the thread the original issue was resolved.

Hi all, A couple weeks ago I got a pair of warnings right after powering up the car from a couple days' worth of sleep: "Electrical system power reduced/vehicle may shut down unexpectedly" and "Unable to charge/Charge port door must be closed to drive". (The charge port door was closed, FYI)...

I had to re-enter my login credentials only to discover the key functionality on the app was deleted. I had to use the card to get back in the car, delete the key (which the iOS app just forgot) and re-add the key to the app. This isn't the first time this has happened. It seems to happen...

Exact location not stated yet but if I had to guess (based on "Tustin Legacy") it's probably in The District (there's a Target) or maybe the nearby shopping center with Stater Brothers.

Subject says it all. Ever since 2020.12.1, there's no audible click when the turn signals blink. (The exterior lights do actually blink)+ Is this a bug, a feature or operator error?

Does anyone here participate in this program? I find it quite frustrating as someone who drives around to different businesses for a living, sees a bunch of unused ChargePoint L2 chargers at an office park and can't charge because my account isn't authorized. These chargers are scattered about...

When I first got my car, this wasn't an issue. The Bluetooth volume on my iPhone stayed at 100% and the volume knob on the steering wheel adjusted the stereo volume accordingly, but there was a Tesla software update a while back that synchronized the car stereo volume with that of the phone...

Here's what it looks like: Charging still works. The green lights move like they normally do but with the slow red LED blinking at the same time. I checked the wall connector installation manual and the closest matching troubleshooting symptom is the one about overtemperature. That's not...

The Costco near my house wants to build a 32-pump gas station on the existing site. Before buying my Tesla, I admit I may have supported this idea but now I find myself strongly against it (surprise, surprise...). The traffic congestion it'll create will be a nightmare and I can't help but...

I just logged in to my SCE account and it appears they're about to close TOU-D-A and a few other rate plans as of March 1st to new enrollment. Does anyone know what new plans (if any) will be offered?

Back in November I had a Tesla wall connector installed in my garage with the intention of getting a $500 rebate back from SCE via their Charge Ready rebate program. The rebate requires a rate plan change to TOU. I requested the rate plan change on their website on 11/30 and the system...

Hi all, My apologies if this is a n00b question. I noticed that in the Tesla app I can track the amount of CO2 saved by the people who've bought Teslas using my referral code. Is this indirectly reporting to me how many miles they're driving? If so that's a little creepy, although in this...

There are several Chargepoint L2 chargers in my office park. Twice now I've come across a situation where it seems like they should work but they don't. Here's what happens: 1) Use Chargepoint keyfob or iPhone app to authorize... done. 2) Remove charger cable from the harness 3) Attach the...

Hey all, New guy here. I take delivery of my Model 3 in about a week. I live in an attached townhome. I have my own, private attached two car garage. I was gearing up to have a NEMA 14-50 outlet installed but unfortunately I discovered the main breaker feeding my unit is only 70A. Other...
