    Frunk fails to unlatch consistently

    I have this same issue on a '23 MSP. While I was there, there was another MS driver who had the same issue. They "resolved" it, but truthfully I don't use the frunk enough. I haven't popped it in a while. The only thing that works consistently for me, is to immediately pull up as soon as I...

    ‘23 Refresh Plaid frunk doesn’t fully open

    Dropped it off today and they need to keep it over the weekend. While there, happened across another person who had the same issue. Weirdly enough, he was picking it up after bringing it in for the same issue a second time. A tech came out and fixed his issue, but doesn't feel great that he...

    ‘23 Refresh Plaid frunk doesn’t fully open

    Thanks! I'll keep my appointment for Friday and let Tesla fix it I guess. It's definitely the second latch as it sounds pretty awful when I have to yank it up right as it's unlatching. It's almost like it's catching on something.

    ‘23 Refresh Plaid frunk doesn’t fully open

    I got some lithium grease and greased up the latch nicely, but while it worked the first couple times I popped it, this morning it got stuck again. Seems like it's the secondary latch that doesn't want to let go. Just for reference, did you spray the latch (the part on the hood), or did you...

    Thanks for the offer! I'll try to grab some and try as you suggest and see if that fixes it. Thank you for the tip!

    ‘23 Refresh Plaid frunk doesn’t fully open

    Were you able to get this resolved? I have the same issue, where I pop the frunk and the frunk doesn't want to open. Mine is a 09/23 build MSP.

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    Had my service done at the Bellevue, WA SC. Ended up replacing 2 TPMS sensors as they couldn't resolve the issue by just replacing the one that wasn't reporting. Separately, the note about software update for vibration, the tech noted "vehicle software update not necessary at this time." and...

    Plaid Vibration around 38-42MPH....

    One of my TPMS sensors failed, so getting that fixed on my '23 Plaid. I saw this was added to my service invoice as well, so I'll be curious to see what happens. I do feel a vibration but feel it less so once i swapped to Chill driving. I have just learned to live with it, but curious to see...

    No "software update available" notifications since V11

    This still seems to be going on for me, anyone else? iPhone 13 Pro w/ latest iOS and latest Tesla app. Received the FSD 10.10.2 update today, but was not notified. Happened to open the Tesla app and saw it was available.

    Repeater camera feeds are mostly useless when turn signal is on at night

    He turned the wheel popped off the clips from the bottom of the fender, pulled it out and slid his arm in and unclipped it from the back. He said repeater camera replacements can be a bit tricky because they sit directly on the body and aren’t attached to anything underneath so the tolerances...

    Repeater camera feeds are mostly useless when turn signal is on at night

    I went ahead and bit the bullet and created a service request in the app. They sent me an estimate for $300 to replace both repeaters and I accepted it. The mobile tech came by today, swapped out both repeaters. Had to update the config on the car and just like that, new AP repeaters...

    M3P Drive unit failure?

    Sadly they didn't. They said there was some voltage issues and tried to narrow it down between the inverter and the drive unit. Ultimately ended up replacing the drive unit. For what it's worth, car drove like new after the swap (and my butt dyno made it almost feel faster than it was...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room

    Yep, all 4 will fit so long as the seats are folded down. I recommend trash bags so you don't get any dirt on your white interior (if that's what you have).

    Rear Drive Unit Failed

    Just wanted to add another data point for a 2018 P3D+ (VIN: 80xxx) delivered September 2018. I had a warning pop up similar to others that said "vehicle may not restart. service required" as I had just grabbed some lunch. I wasn't able to take it to the service center right away as I had some...

    WTB: Signature Gen 2 HPWC - PNW

    Looking for a signature Gen 2 HPWC - preferably new. Finally purchased a home and have wanted one. Thought the person who I referred received one, but they never got the referral for my purchase. Local in the PNW would be great, but will pay shipping if necessary. Thank you!

    Crystalline 20% One set of pictures are from a sunny day. The other is from a more overcast day. Crystalline definitely has a bluish hue to the tint.

    3M Crystalline vs PINNACLE vs Suntek CIR vs LLumar CTX vs Wincos Tint

    It definitely looks brownish from the inside. Similar to how some polarized sunglasses look.

    3M Crystalline vs PINNACLE vs Suntek CIR vs LLumar CTX vs Wincos Tint

    It's definitely bluish. See attached pic. That's 20% on a white interior. Perfect IMO. Not too dark.

    2019.20.4.2

    Anyone having issues with Phone as a Key? Had my car since September and since moving to 20.4, my car regularly won't detect my phone key. I have to go in and open the app before it's recognized (it's running in the background before I open it). I'm running the latest iOS 12 build on an iPhone X.

    Request: 3M Crystalline Pics w/ White Interior

    So I ended up with 20% on all 4 windows + 1 piece rear. I took a couple pictures. The tint is pretty reflective, so maybe not a great photo, but will give folks an idea. These photos were taken on a sunny day, but the car was in the shade. One thing I've definitely noticed is the tint is fairly...

    Request: 3M Crystalline Pics w/ White Interior

    That's super helpful. Based on your pics, that looks fairly dark and I'll probably end up doing 40% all around. I realize those are evening shots, but still seems pretty dark to me.

    Request: 3M Crystalline Pics w/ White Interior

    Thanks all! Mahkus, your pictures are definitely helpful. I think I'm going to go a bit darker at 20% because that seems awfully light. Did you also have the front roof tinted at 20%?

    Request: 3M Crystalline Pics w/ White Interior

    Hi Folks, I have a tint appointment scheduled next week to get 3M Crystalline on my blue with white interior P3D. I'd be getting 4 windows + roof in 1 piece. I'm not planning to tint the windshield or the front roof. My options for tint in the 3M Crystalline is 20 or 40. I'm afraid 40 might...

    Michelin Pilot Sport 4S - variants

    I can confirm there's foam lining inside the OEM PS4S. I swapped over to the Pilot Sport A/S 3+ and kept my PS4S and there's definitely foam inside.

    Picking up P3D+ in two weeks and it's suppose to snow, what should I do?

    You are correct. The Model 3 is still not in their system, but if you ask them to look up by size (or just use the item number I provided) they will be able to pull them up. Due to the fact it's not in their system, I'm taking my own jackpads just in case and have all the relevant information...

    P3D+ 20” Winter Tires / Wheels

    It's most likely due to sizing. The Model X has what some may say a more "common" tire size that has more tires available (from multiple brands). The P3D+ comes with a stock tire size that isn't as common (yet), so options are far more limited. For example, the only A/S tire is the Michelin...

    Picking up P3D+ in two weeks and it's suppose to snow, what should I do?

    If you are a Costco member, you can order Michelin PS A/S 3+ from your tire center. They don't show up online, but are available (I just ordered last week, getting installed this week). Ask them to look up Item #1258230.

    Supercharger - Issaquah, WA (LIVE Oct 2018, 8 Urban stalls)

    Sorry, I should have clarified, yes, when I got there, 3 were open, but quickly after that all 8 became occupied. These folks (car #9), then attempted to see if they could get the plug from the car done charging at the end of the row opposite the transformer, where they were parked facing the...

    Supercharger - Issaquah, WA (LIVE Oct 2018, 8 Urban stalls)

    They were trying to unplug because I assume they wanted to charge and that car was done. I'm not sure how they could tell it was done, but they seemed convinced it was. They car they were attempting to unplug was on the end spot furthest from the transformer. So they had just pulled up next to...
