This is the "before" front bumper lip

Last week I bought the $41 Amazon front lip solution and install it. The installation is very easy. Just to be on the safe side, I used a small heat gun to warm (NOT to heat) the bumper and the glue strip for a minute of two. It holds well on both sides of the bumper, and I even left my Y on a...

This is the other type of cars on Lanai (ICE, non Tesla, not a Cybertruck either)) which I photograph while walking around the "downtown" on 10/2023

Question to Joseph- How easy is the installation of this Lip Guard $US32? Are you the seller or customer/user? In addition to this AliExpress, I am also considering Amazon's Lip Guard $US41. See easy installation video clip. Which one is better?

Yes Watts_Up- you are correct, thank you- following your eye opening advice, I've just discovered this un-documented secret compartment in the trunk of my Model Y (after 5 months of owning the car). Excellent storage for rarely used stuff, such as portable air pump, additional charger adaptor...

My Y is a 5 seater. By the way this mat on Black Friday is reduced to $53 Amazon.com

1. There is no "second hidden storage" at the Y 2. The mat is simply and effectively held by Velcro to the floor as well as to the seat backs and the two side wells. No problems. There is no reason to remove it, yet if you really want to take it out, just pull. 3. The side wells are not covered...

Apple, Disney and IBM to pause ads on X after antisemitic Elon Musk tweet, as did Warner Bros, Paramount, Sony Pictures, and Comcast/NBCUniversal, pause all thier advertising on X, formerly Twitter, two days after owner Elon Musk tweeted his enthusiastic agreement with an antisemitic post. This...

Ah, that's easy. When you click to enlarge the picture, you can see the yellow dot in the middle (which is a piece of yellow tape I put there to see in the dark). You just lift it to get access to the storage well. The mat itself and the bike's front wheel don't interfere much.

After graduating from M-3 up to M-Y my (biking) life have changed! In the good ol' days of M-3 I hade to remove the front wheel when transporting my bike. Now the bike fits in nicely as is, complete, at full length. The "enabling technology" is very simple- I bought a Mat Waterproof Cargo Liner...

And, by the way- This problem showed itself in two phones, mine and my better half's, and the solution of reinstalling the app in both was brilliant. Go figure.

Thank you for all those who responded to my question regarding "unable to locate vehicle". I have found a solution, see below. But first- in response to your suggestions: 1. The problem has been when the car is outside under the sky 2. All other apps work, in the car and on my phone 3. The...

Suddenly; "unable to locate vehicle" message- anyone? -------------------------------------------------------- The message "unable to locate vehicle" showed up very recently out of nowhere after Tesla's s/w update- now installed 2023.38.4. Tesla M Y. My cellphone is connected, the LTE comm is...

What is that excuse "...They [Tesla] never seen it..."? See my colorful experience with the same problem and the ultimate solution (replace it all) as detailed in the sections above #24,26,29,31,37,38,39

I've just came back from Lanai (Oct 2023). I saw from the shuttle van window the new superchargers lot on the outskirt of the tiny Lanai City. Near the Four Seasons hotel I managed to photograph a Model X that belongs to the hotel. The driver told us that there are quite a few Tesla on the...

I have been experiencing this slowing charging at home every once in awhile, and there was a message on the Tesla screen saying the wall connector is heating up. Indeed it has. You know the saying "when everything fails consult the manual"? I did. I've checked the Tesla Wall Connector...

I'd like to draw your attention to two separate issues I have had recently, see links to my entries: 1. GPS problems https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/navigation-gps-not-working-on-brand-new-model-y.305079/ 2. HomeLink MyQ problems...

After several years of using MyQ cellphone App, the Home screen disappeared yesterday for no apparent reason. In fact it disappeared from our two cellphones. While the garage door opener through my Tesla works properly without any problems, and the History screen on both cellphones records all...

What is the new blue dot the has recently been added on the lower left of the screen under the car icon

It was probably NOT the GPS board but the 1. unstable connectivity board (whatever it is...) and/or 2. the computer- both have been replaced the second time around. (The GPS board had been replaced in the first service call, but the intermittent problem remained).

This is how these parts look like (I think..) Computer GPS Antenna

All's well. It seems that my intermittent GPS navigation problem has been resolved. It has been 10 days since my model Y was serviced at the Tesla service center in Burbank CA, and the system in navigating with no interruptions. Replacing the GPS antenna, the connectivity board and the car...

As detailed above, the GPS problem in my brand new Model Y was intermittent and unpredictable. Now my service center seems to have finally resolve it. By mid July I brought the car in, and they replaced the GPS antenna unit. This didn't help, the intermittent interruptions continued. I scheduled...

Note to Rod0101. Thanks for your interesting input. Please Email me directly to [email protected] how can I contact you (Whatsapp or Email address). I need more details about your GPS fiasco

Same here: My Wall Charger is too worm, the red light blinks once and the charge speed is reduced from 32A to 16A, thus doubling the charge time at home. My question- DOES ANYONE HERE HAVE A CREATIVE SOLUTION FOR COOLING OFF THE WALL CHARGER? My setting: My new Model Y is one month old, but...

Update: No, No, No- it still doesn't work. Just a few days after the replacement of my GPS antenna by the Burbank Service center, my GPS navigation/location continues misbehaving intermittently. The fix has not fixed a thing. On one day it works, and on the other it doesn't. On my request...

Thanks for the important update Greg. Bryce park is strategically located and is visited by million of people. Now Tesla--- what about installing superchargers at other important national parks, such as: Zion, Grand Canyon West, Yellowstone, Monument valley, Sequoia, etc.?

Update on my M Y GPS problem: Well, Tesla service center has finally fixed it. After 6 days in the shop and multiple software and firmware attempts to diagnose and resolve the GPS problem they determined that the fault lies in the GPS antenna hardware. Replacing it was the solution.

I have exactly the same problem- A brand new M-Y with only 200 miles I have exactly the same problem (I am in the Los Angeles area)- On a brand new M-Y with only 200 miles: The GPS stopped GPS'ing. In fact, over a period of these first couple of weeks, it sporadically worked, then didn't work...

My new M-y delivered on 6/22/23 (9 days after ordering it!). I had purchased Homelink (for the outrageous price of $385, tax and installation included) and it was installed today 6/28/23. The fully automated functionality is not complete and the Tesla tech who installed it at my house said that...

I received my 2023 Modal Y just 9 days after I placed my order- compared with 18 months (550 days) waiting for my 2018 Model 3. There were many reasons for choosing the M-Y, such as size, volume, legroom, comfort, longer charge/range and other published specifications. But beyond the specs, the...

Today the audio volume controls stopped working (be it the left scroll button, and the slider on the screen control). And Just out of the blue, the volume was weak (can still be heard) but very low and un-changeable. This applies to radio, USB music or streaming- BUT did NOT affect the...

Shelburne- Have you checked (it on your computer) if the USB drive had been locked by your Tesla (as I suspect my 256GB USB has?)

Same situation here: "Dashcam Unavailable Check USB". My USB stick is a robust Lexar 128GB high speed, which had been working well for a few months, recording dashcam videos until it stopped. I've tried to reformat it at my Model 3 car, then took it and tried to format on my PC. No luck. I then...

The display of LOCATION option of the mobile app The option on the left is bad-only a schematic map - and always in black The option on the right is good- full color aerial map of the same view My question: Is there any way to set-up the display option on the left to be like the colorful Google...

We have asked ChatGPT to generate/write a Dr Seuss style poem about driving my Tesla, and this is the mind boggling result (that came back in a fraction of a second): =============================== Oh, I have a Tesla, let me tell you it's grand With its sleek, shiny exterior, it's really quite...

Response to PR1NS355 I don't believe in {black) magic, yet the black screen problem seems to disappear. On March 2022 I reported here that a Tesla technician came over, did a hard boot (that is, even disconnected the battery for a moment). Also- although it sounded a little strange, some...

Excellent response RTPEV. I appreciate your comprehensive and accurate description of the ChargePoint situation. I have been driving Tesla for more than 4 years, including long trips through the deserts, and never had to use anything but Tesla's Superchargers. I understand, as you have said...

I am planning a roundtrip drive my Model-3 from Southern California to Vancouver BC, going up on I-5 and back along the Pacific Coast. I have pretty good experience in planning ahead and using Tesla's Superchargers on long trips, but this time I want to play it on the safe side and have another...

Elon- PLEASE stop saving civilization and focus on making excellent cars and rockets, supporting and servicing your customers and propping up the Tesla Brand (and stock price). See Barron's article here: Tesla's Brand Is Suffering as Elon Musk Tries to Save Civilization

Destination Charger at La Quinta hotel, Mission Bay, San Diego is no longer there!! Be aware, before making a reservation at this hotel. I was careful and called before booking a room there (middle on Nov 2022) and the front desk informed me that they had removed the charger. This brings up...

Yes, Dateland is a great hole in the wall. Juicing up your Tesla, while sipping date-shake in the middle of the desert is such a refreshing idea. This picture was taken 2 years ago on our way West along highway 8. Great location.

...and also needed a supercharger farm half way between Flagstaff and Kingman AZ (in Seligman?)
