    Retail Stores in Central Florida Make no Sense

    So the Tesla store/service facility for Orlando is Eatonville. The first problem Elon is Eatonville is not Orlando. And the store there is very small with almost no parking because what little space they have is over filled with cars waiting for service. And this is to serve the Orlando market...

    A/C Problem AGAIN!

    So last August when the car was only 5 months old, my A/C went out. Tesla kept the car in service for 23 days beofre giving it back to me with a new Supermanifold assembly. Now 9 months later the A/C starts blowing hot air on us in a nice 98 degree Florida day. Had to turn around and go get my...

    AutoPilot tried to kill me. Again.

    This time I was cruising down the freeway at 70mph when a car turned on his signal to merge into my lane. He was on the on ramp. All of a sudden my Y did some extreme braking thinking we were going collide. It was not even close for a human but the computer freaked out. I decelerated so quickly...

    Spotify glitch

    Happening more often where it hangs on one song. If I try to choose another song on the playlist it just keeps going back to the song its stuck on. Using the forward arrow to next song does work so the problem is only when selecting a song from the list.

    1st Time Auto Car Wash

    So after much debate my laziness finally got the best of me this week and took my Y to the local auto car wash. I had read some horror stories but I figured I would try. And actually it went well. No issues, no scratches just a clean car. The one I went to is where you stay in the car and the...

    Tires! A Cautionary Tale

    I have the performance package with the 21" tires. I got a screw in a rear tire right in the middle of the tread. Easy fix I thought. WRONG! Took the car to a local big box tire facility and when they pulled the tire it had the acoustic foam! The manager remarked that he didn't even know...

    Need help from Tire Experts

    I am going to ditch my 21 Uberturbines and go with the T Sportline 19" TST Flow Forged package with tires. Here are my tire option and my question is which one would be best for maximum range and low noise. I am in Orlando so all weather is not needed.

    3 month test on tire pressure

    My Y has performance package with 21 Uberturbines. The ride was so harsh that 3 months ago I lowered TP to 38 psi. Very noticable change! Not near as harsh of a ride as when they were at 42psi. I cannot comment on additional wear nor do I care. I did seem to lose some rage. Looks like about 3%...

    Tesla Charger with J1772 Plug?

    I was at the FastPark at the Orlando airport and they have Tesla stalls so I took one. It was a charger that looked exactly like a supercharger with the Tesla logo but it had a J1772 plug and only charged at 30 amps.(7200 kwh). Anyone else seen such an animal in the wild?

    AutoPilot Almost Killed Me!

    So I am cruising down the freeway using autopilot at the posted 70mph. As I am approaching a giant sign above the freeway showing which lane to be in to pay toll in cash my Y suddenly starts to rapidly slowdown. The car behind me swerved as to not hit me. I jammed the throttle immediately to get...

    Elon; The Y Needs this update..

    Cross traffic warning when backing up. There are some wicked blind spots on the Y that the camera does not cover when backing up. Please add the cross traffic alert upgrade that you promised months ago!

    Can't Get Autopark to work

    Can you guys help? I must be doing something wrong. I have tried it at the grocery store parking lot and out of 5 attempts, I only got the P icon once and then it did park ok. I am following the precise speed instructions as shown in the manual so its not that. Any ideas?

    Did Tesla mess with Range again?

    When I first got my Y, I would charge to the highest "everyday" bar. Never all the to max. "trip". I would show 244 fully charged. Then about a month ago Tesla pushed a software update and suddenly my normal charge ranged increased to 255. Now all of a sudden it is back to 244? Anyone else...

    Elon's Tweet on Tire Pressure

    So I found an old tweet by Elon that reducing the tire pressure to 39 would soften the ride but lose some range. I have the 21 Uberturbines. Has anyone tried this yet and if so what was range loss? Currently running at 45 psi and ride is hard.

    Car wash After Service

    Has anyone picked up their car from service to find it sparkling clean? In Orlando it comes back filthy from sitting outside. Funny how I always got a free wash after service with my old Nissan Leaf. However my Leaf only needed service once in 2 years. It was in for 3 days. My Y has been in a...

    Going on day 10 in Service

    Sadly, this is where Tesla blows it. Service work. They are so overwhelmed that my new Y sat at the service center for 8 days before it was even looked at. Now they have to order a part which will be another 7 to 10 days. (The service staff at Orlando has been magnificent and its not their...

    Love the Y. Hate the S

    So my service center has my Y for my AC problem. They gave me an old S as a loaner and I was shocked to find out the S is a nightmare for ingress/egress. I am only 6'1 but when I try to get in the driver's seat I hit my head on the edge of the roof. And to get out of the car I basically have...

    AC issue upgraded to Service Appointment

    So after trying the power down reboot my a/c problem is even worse. Now I will be driving along with temp set to 71 and the whisper quiet AC running when suddenly it starts sounding like a jet engine spooling up! I still get cold air which is good but the noise level is scary! So I went ahead...

    The solution for all problems..

    I have to laugh at Tesla support. Not about the usual 20 to 30 minute wait times, that is not funny. However the funny part is their solution to every problem is reboot the car. Examples: My A/C is blowing warm air: reboot, power down and then restart car. My display is frozen: reboot, power...

    Another AC Post

    So my AC was working perfectly since I took delivery in March. Now after several updates I am having an intermittent problem. Randomly I will get in the car after it is parked for a while and the AC will blow slightly cool but not cold air. If I manually turn off the climate control then turn it...

    More Battery life?

    Strange 12V Encounter

    Tire/Wheel Swap Question

    So T-sportline has some great looking wheel and tire packages that come with everything including TPS. If were to buy a package, how do I sync the new TPS to my Y? And as far as swapping, is it something I can do in my garage or do most people take them to a tire shop to swap them out? I dont...

    Wish List for my Y

    1. Ability to control both intensity and color of the ambient lighting. 2. Ability to change colors of the display so for example you could have a blue readout of speed vs fixed at black. 3. Colder AC. (Elon have your engineers rent a Nissan Titan truck for a weekend and find out what they do...

    First MY Road Trip. The Good, Bad and Ugly.

    So today was the first road trip. Or rather an abbreviated road trip as it was only 250 miles round trip. The good news is there is no ugly to report. The Good: Navigate with Autopilot worked perfectly. Very impressed. The car got itself into the correct lanes and took the correct exits...

    21 Uberturbine Report

    So a few of you remember my accident a few weeks ago where I hit the sharp edge of a curb at 35 mph and it sliced open my sidewall. Miraculously no damage to wheel. Pure luck as it turns out. I have also seen a lot of questions about curb rash on the Uberturbiines. What I can tell you is I...

    Ironically I could use a CCS Adapter for my Y

    Superchargers are almost everywhere but I frequent an area that only has Electrify America chargers. I understand I can buy the CHAdeMO but that only gives me a charge rate of 50kW. If we had a CCS adapter I could get the full 350kW which is more than a Tesla V3 Supercharger! Anyone have any...

    Odd Behavior today

    So I went to get in my Y and the first thing that happened is the drivers window did not index quickly enough. It caught the trim and made a snap sound but no damage. (This has never happened and I read the other posts about the window going up before closing.) Then when I got in the car and...

    Frustrated with voice calling

    When I ask to dial a person it brings up that person with the list of phone numbers listed (mobile, home,etc.) But I have to take my eyes off the road to find the number I want and press it!

    The bummer of being among the first..

    The bummer is getting parts. So I posted about my accident that ripped my tire. But sadly after 3 days no Y. They said they were overnighting a tire on Wed. but that never happened. Now they say the tire is in transit so hopefully early next week. I looked online and these 21" Pirelli's are...

    First Accident in new Y!

    Was driving tonight and did not correct enough for a jog in the road and hit a curb at 30 mph. Front tire immediately deflated. I pulled to the side and parked right away and the wheel and tire visually look ok but when I tried to put air in it the bead would not seal and air just came right...

    Advice on Changing Wheels

    So down the road if I were to change to a T Sportline 20" wheel, How would I program the Y to know I changed wheel size. I currently have the 21 Ubers. I have seen some photos of a reset TPMS screen but it only offered the choice of 19 or 21.

    Cabin Camera

    So the word from Tesla continues to be that it is for “future use”. Should we believe that statement? It seems when the occasional accident happens where someone crashes while using autopilot, it would make Tesla’s position in court much better if they had cabin video showing the driver reading...

    1st hand wash today and here is what I found..MAD!!

    To find the flaws in my Y I used the following after my hand wash: 1. Mitutoyo 500-196-30 Digital caliper 2. Craftsman LED Super bright light. 1. I found my doors are about 1mm off perfect alignment. 2. Found my rear hatch is 4mm favored on the left side which means it was not exactly centered...

    First Time Using Mobile Tech

    Very good experience. The tech arrived in the time window promised and replaced my defective spoiler in about 20 minutes. I did find it amusing that the mobile Tesla Service van is a Ford! lol Maybe someday Elon will produce a series of cargo vans for Tesla, Amazon, UPS, etc.
