    Tesla Shop Return Restocking Fee?

    I returned a wireless phone charging dock using a Tesla-provided FedEx return label and was refunded 100% of the purchase price; no return shipping charges nor restocking fee. I used my own packaging since I had already recycled the original box, but the inner black Tesla box containing the...

    Keep an eye on Cabin Overheat Protection if using with Sentry Mode on

    It has been a well-known limitation that Sentry Mode disables Cabin Overheat Protection. Sentry Mode uses the microphone in the cabin to detect break-ins, and blowing fans produce too much noise.

    SD Card for Dash Cam

    Currently, recording stops when the disk is full, regardless of the type of storage medium.

    window keeps coming down when trying to go up?

    I also had this problem with my driver window. It was intermittent, sometimes occurring around 70% of the time, sometimes not recurring for weeks. The first time I mentioned this to service, they were able to reproduce the problem on their first attempt. They explained that it merely required...

    Model 3 RWD: Frunk Replacement for more Storage

    Here's a photo of the cavity from a different angle (port-side wheel well) that I took today while the wheel was off. Looks cavernous.

    M3 EAP slowing down question.

    I've experienced this in southern California, where HOV lanes have limited entry and exit zones. Having the "use HOV lanes" setting enabled causes Navigate on Autopilot to insist on using them, even if all other lanes are wide open and there's consequently no benefit in being in any particular...

    Model 3 DashCam last minute of accident missing

    I wonder whether connecting the USB drive via a short USB extension cable could help with this solution's susceptibility to shock and vibration, by reducing the stresses at the connector...

    Model 3 DashCam last minute of accident missing

    I'm not a lawyer, but it seems to me that the immediately-preceding evidence of him making unsafe lane changes endangering other drivers, and you (presumably) driving safely and defensively, could provide some valuable credence to your word against his and that of the witness, though you would...

    Model 3 DashCam last minute of accident missing

    I've never found any useful information in the .REC files. If those are the only ones you've been able to retrieve, I would try a different data recovery utility, because you should be finding .mp4 files as well. I have been able to recover a good number of recent-front-YYYY-MM-DD_HH-MM.mp4...

    Sentry Mode for EAP equipped vehicles

    This feature would have been useful to me this past weekend, when some piece of scum keyed my driver door. :mad:

    Enough Superchargers for Christmas? with info from Thanksgiving?

    Kettleman City (along the I-5 in California), even with all 40 stalls operational, was full on Saturday 2018-12-22 afternoon. There was a queue of about 6 cars, but thanks to the high throughput, my wait time was only several minutes long. Every other time I stopped here, there were fewer than...

    The car has a tire pressure monitoring system consisting of: A small battery-powered sensor embedded in each of the 4 wheels at the valve stems A wireless receiver installed in each of the 4 wheel wells Wiring Electronics Esquire was referring to the pressure sensors embedded in the wheels...

    How Many MPH Will Model 3 Charge From 110V?

    Forgot to mention: Above numbers are at moderate California temperatures, between 50°F and 85°F. Cabin overheat protection set to "no A/C".

    How Many MPH Will Model 3 Charge From 110V?

    I charge almost exclusively on 120 V at work to avoid contributing to the competition for our two J1772 plugs. I started out with the included NEMA 5-15 adapter, then shortly bought a NEMA 5-20 adapter from Tesla once I noticed that the outlet had a T-shaped receptacle, to increase the power...

    Is there anyway to limit the performance of a model 3?

    Valet mode limits acceleration to 25% or 80 kW and top speed to 70 mph, and requires a PIN to disable.

    Is anyone else getting overcharged at the supercharger?

    I've observed deltas between what's indicated on the in-car display and what's indicated on the final invoice in my Tesla account history to be greater than the tax rate. The in-car estimate is inaccurate.

    Is changing a phone the only way?

    The key fob will not work better than your phone does, because one of its limitations is that it does not support passive entry.

    Is changing a phone the only way?

    To clarify, my Moto G5 Plus was previously running Nougat 7.0, so Oreo 8.1 was a major update.

    potential phone key fix (or at least partial solution) for android

    I can confirm that the Android Oreo 8.1 update has resolved my phone key unreliability, even after I decreased the importance of the "Phone Key Status" notification category of the Tesla app to Low (no sound or visual interruptions) to eliminate the persistent notification. The green dot...

    Is changing a phone the only way?

    I have a Motorola Moto G5 Plus. I had a success rate of less than 10% with the phone key as designed. I'd leave Bluetooth on throughout the day, but when I'd walk up and press a door handle, the car would awake and instruct me to tap my key card. In some cases, it would eventually unlock...
