    Reduced alert signal volume with 2023.26.7

    My 2018 AWD Model 3 was updated to 2023.26.7 two days ago. When I drove the car for the first time after the update, I noticed right away that the alert signals (safety belt not on, gear change, turns, etc) sounded a lot quieter/softer. Has anyone had the same experience? I haven't figured out...

    How bad is this tire damage?

    This is my rear tire on the passenger side. Is this fixable, or should it be replaced? Thanks!

    Loot box supercharger miles expiration date

    I have some superchager miles in my loot box. Their expiration date is marked as May 15, 2022. Anybody know if this means I can no longer use those miles on or after May 15? Thanks!

    Transposed tire pressure readings

    I had a new set of tires installed earlier today at Costco. After driving it for a bit, I noticed that the the pressure of the driver-side rear tire was only 34psi. I went back to Costco and had them check that tire. They used their tire inflator (set at 42psi) on it and the inflator beeped (set...

    Tesla App Draining My iPhone SE 2

    I have Tesla app v4.3.0 running on my iPhone SE Gen. 2 (2020). I rarely use this phone as it's a backup, yet I find that I need to charge it every other day or the battery would go down to zero. According to the 'battery' page in Settings, Tesla app is the 100% hog. I have tried swiping up the...

    2021.4.11: Model 3 suffering from insomniac after update!?

    I noticed from the TeslaMate (adriankumpf/teslamate) log for my Model 3 that it has been online all the time since it's updated to 2021.4.11 two weeks ago. I have rebooted, turned off TeslaMate, and killed the Tesla app on my phone, and none of these actions made it fall asleep. Has anyone...

    Has anyone got updated map?

    I drove down Rt. 3 from NH to MA yesterday, and found the highway exit signs had all been re-numbered, while the map on my Model 3 still showed the old numbers. My questions: 1. Has anyone got an updated map with the new numbers? 2. Have the signs on I95, I90, and I495 in MA been updated yet...

    Model Y Hip Room

    Just checked out the interior dimensions of Model Y from the owner's manual. One measurement caught my eye (page 188 at https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/model_y_owners_manual_north_america_en.pdf) Hip Room Front 53.8 in Rear 50.6 Compare that with...

    Does Voice Command Work With Playing Music on USB?

    I have a USB stick loaded with songs that my Model 3 can play without a problem. However, when I try to play a song on the stick using voice command, it seems to do a search rather than playing the song. I will have to touch the song in the search result to get it to play. I really miss the days...

    Streaming using voice commands in V10

    I have had V10 installed for about a day, and I found that I could no longer use voice command to stream audio contents. Pre-V10, I could say 'play <song name>' or 'play <radio station codename>' and in most cases it would be able to play the contents I requested. With V10, it would show me a...

    Is Slacker down?

    Since this morning, I haven't been able to stream music with Slacker. I was prompted with a login screen for my Slacker account. I clicked 'Use Tesla Account' and was told 'invalid account'. Does anyone else see the same issue?

    No vampire drain?

    My Model 3 is on 2019.20.4.2. I have been away from home for the past two weeks and the car is left plugged in the garage. I checked on the car once or twice every day, and the battery level has been near constant at 253 to 254 miles (it fluctuates, and the limit was set at ~80%). There's no...

    Remaining range increased overnight without charging?

    I have owned my Model 3 AWD for a bit over 5 months, and the battery seems to be performing to spec. This morning, I witnessed something I haven't seen before-- the remaining range went up overnight when I left the car unplugged. So here's what has happened since yesterday morning: 1. I...

    Flickering headlights when exiting the car

    I noticed in the past few days that my headlights flicker when I get off the driver seat. I don't think I saw this behavior before the 2019.5.15 update. Did anyone see the same?

    Slacker Music: Was I extremely lucky, or was it the 5.15 update?

    On our drive home from school, my kids and I took turn picking songs using voice control. We counted-- we picked 7 songs and Slacker played them one after the other with no hesitation or fill-ins! This had never happened since I got the car 3.5 months ago. I did get my 5.15 update last night...

    How to top off the batter after some vampire drain

    I routinely charge my M3 to 90%. If I don't drive the car for a couple of days, the battery loses 6 - 8 miles of range. What I want to do is to top off the battery to 90% to recover the range lost to vampire drain before my trip. I found that simply unplugging and re-plugging the charging cable...

    Energy app equivalent

    Does anyone know of a mobile app or a web site that logs information similar to that in the energy app and/or the consumption tab in the lower left corner of the monitor? I started playing with the Tesla JSON API tonight, and I think it's possible, but it may not be as accurate as the numbers...

    Switching from R to D

    I accidentally found that I could go from reverse to drive without braking when my M3 travels at a low speed (2mph when I found this behavior). The transition was very smooth, and simply added agility to an already agile car. My apologies if this is a well-known behavior.

    AWD/Dual Motors: What happens when one of the motor fails?

    I seem to recall that Elon Musk tweeted or said that with AWD, Model 3 would still chug along if one of the motors fails. I guess the driver would notice a difference in performance when that happens, and am wondering if the user interface would actually inform the driver about the motor...

    When will Model 3 start charging after phantom drain?

    I was travelling the past couple of days. I left my Model 3 in the garage with the connector plugged in. When i returned, I noticed that the SoC was 271 miles vs 278 when it's fully charged. I was a bit surprised that the charging algorithm didn't start charging itself given the loss of 7...

    Does EAP avoid potholes?

    I am on EAP free trial, and so far have used it on highway only, so haven't had the luck to encounter potholes while EAP is on (knock on wood). Does EAP avoid potholes and hideous manholes? I think it's something quite doable by the software.

    Fit issues

    I have had the car for almost three weeks now, and love the car so far. However, the car does have some fit issues in the two doors on the driver side (rear door is lower and protruding) and the trunk lid (not lining up with the C pillar on the passenger side). They are fairly noticeable...

    Dancing cars around me!?

    I am not sure if this is normal-- When I stop at a red light, what I often see in my monitor is that the cars around me are all twitching or dancing. Sometimes even the lines are joining in the party! Is this an indication that the radar/sensors aren't bolted tightly enough? Or perhaps I just...

    No surround sound?

    My premium audio is loud and clear. The only potential issue I have is that the sound seems to be coming straight to my face, rather than surrounding me. There's close little, if any, sound coming out of the side as far as I can tell. I have played with the 'immersive' setting, and I found the...

    Home delivery to NH from Dedham

    Anyone in NH with home delivery experience out of Dehdam? I was told that mine will be delivered to my home by a 3rd party trucker because it's outside the 30-mile radius handled by Tesla employees. More specifically: 1. If the car has some paint/fitting issues or missing parts, how do I have...

    No DA assigned, and no answer to my question. Please advise.

    Hello, first post here. Great to be part of the forum. I placed an order on a M3 at a Tesla store on 11/14 night. Got a VIN assigned about 15 minutes after the order, and a delivery date was scheduled for 11/21 (!?). I was very pleasantly surprised given that I'd really want to get the $7500...
