Wow there's a lot of bad advice in this video. Everything is wrong from the products to the methods, to the swirling motion you use while cleaning your paint. What a disaster.

For what it's worth I had a keycard "die". It was very odd. The car cannot see it even after I removed it and tried to add it back. The other one works fine.

Awful. Please don't do this.

The 20" wheels are very fragile and the ride quality is somewhat reduced.

Hyundai/Kia are making some of the best cars in the business and they are rich in features. Don't be surprised.

Mine is fine, but I keep my windows clean and coated with Gyeon Cure. Haven't noticed any problems with spraying or wiping. I guess make sure that water is coming out. It could be that your nozzle is disconnected.

Don't think of the Tesla doing the driving - think of it assisting driving and making it easier. You still need to be alert.

That requires that the seat detect that you are in it. This way you can be in the back with the seats folded.

I paid taxes in Texas.

I swear, so many of you people on this forum have either never owned a car or are coming from a Prius or Corolla. Insurance companies don't care if you mod your car or flash it. It's just a model number to them. Do you think they want 1992 Honda Civic owners who put a fart can on their car to...

By your logic would the rates go up for all the other updates they've made available for free which increased the acceleration speeds of various trims of the Model 3? This won't happen and that's not how they do their rates.

0.5-0.6, yeah.

Follow Wugz on Reddit. He'll be posting later today.

On my second car (Audi A3), I paid APR $600 to get something like 40 hp and 90lb ft of torque. Not anywhere near as noticeable as this - which I gladly and happily gave Tesla money for. The whiners in these forums are either youths with little car experience (disclaimer - I'm a millennial), or...

I got the update and tried it at lunch. It was so violent that I got a bit of a headache. The first words out of my mouth were expletives. I think it's very noticeable. The car also broke traction on all 4 wheels when it took off. Extremely fun.

Yeah but those aren't from the manufacturer. Companies like Audi or Porsche offer option packages which increase top speed or add launch control which can cost thousands of dollars. These are largely insignificant changes compared to what Tesla is offering.

You are quoting actual vs. Tesla numbers. This 2K upgrade puts the actual for the dual motor @ 3.46 w/1 foot rollout (2.9 is for this same measurement on P3D), and 3.7x w/out the rollout. Teslas's 3.9 is extremely conservative and underrates it significantly. Source is someone on this forum...

The current price delta for a stealth P and an optioned AWD is about $2 or 3k last I checked. Also, this won't be as fast as a P or have track mode or the brakes.

What do you mean by full reset of both computers?

I bought in March and paid $3,000 for AP/Autosteer.

2016 BMW M235i. The driver's car of the entire BMW lineup until the M2 showed up in 2018. The Model 3 is so much more enjoyable in so many ways that I never miss the tail out hooliganism and the sonorous engine.

Do you have the car connected to WiFi at home? 2019.36.x.x is the version with the 5% boost. So you do not yet have it.

All windows including the sunroof tinted on my end. It was a great choice. I don't feel the sun in the Texas heat while driving around (besides the the windshield despite AIR 90 tint up there).

The click is normal. It's the same actuation click that happens when you are in autopilot and want to inch up behind the person in front of you. Once it stops you'll hear the click.

Yeah sod off with the clickbait. This video is rubbish.

MY BMW had frameless windows which rolled down when the door was opened. I've seen numerous other cars with that.

I had a BMW with a tempered glass sunroof which exploded randomly while driving. The force of the explosion blew most of the glass up and out, but I still had a number of pieces rain down with gravity. The majority of the glass hit the trunk after it exploded, damaging the paint in that area...

I get this problem quite frequently, and with the current software I've found that a full reboot (hold the two steering wheel buttons + the brake until the Tesla logo appears) fixes it for about 4-7 days. If you aren't able to reboot but are experiencing the problem you can also turn on the...

Prices change all the time. Other automakers add incentives and the prices can go up or down model year to model year. Is this your first time buying a car or something? Have you ever paid any attention to the auto market in general?

This looks terrible in any objective judgement. If you're concerned about heat transmission put a good dark ceramic tint up there. This just looks like sad car wearing a sad hat. I live in Texas and I have zero problems with the heat because of my tint. You don't have to do this to yourself.

Note 10+ here. 98% success rate. Hooking up automatically to bluetooth audio is about 70% success rate. It was slightly less reliable with a Note 8.

Yeah, I have suspicions about your USB drive. I keep on preaching using SSDs in this forum, but technologically illiterate people always disagree. Samsung T5 or nothing. I use one with zero issues. I'm dismayed that you used a USB 2.0 drive and work in IT, by the way.

Who says it's perfect? It's as flawed as any other creation. It is, however, highly distinctive in the marketplace and absolutely wonderful as a daily driver or road trip machine or back-road flogger.

Maybe check the connections on it? It's under the plastic shroud in the top of the frunk area.

I've had mine since March and they are absolutely fantastic. I take them out frequently to clean with zero problems. The logo isn't noticeable after awhile.

T5 is good up to to 140F. If you have cabin overheat protection on (and you should) with quality window tint you'll never reach those temps inside the car. I live in Austin, and I've never cracked 110 inside the car according to the app and frequent checking. The T5 has been rock solid.

Stop using trashy thumb drives and get a Samsung T5 SSD. It's not hard.

Yes I am. - Just like with your car. I'd only recommend it if you have bad allergies or something along that line. Even then you'd be better off with a HEPA vaccuum and regular cleaning.

Kenriko kit is fantastic. The razor blade is for tucking and/or trimming loose ends. Due to how stretchy the material is, you might have slight overruns - ergo razor. Watch his videos before and during. It will take you awhile, but each one gets easier. Another bonus of his kit is that he...

Talked to a mobile service tech. He said use the fresh air setting rather than recirculate is the best way to prevent it. Particularly if it's dry outside.

Use an SSD like the Samsung T5, and ignore all these people suggesting cheap, temperature sensitive, unreliable thumb drives. I use a 512GB T5 and it's flawless and I don't have to worry about it being in a hot car.

The batteries would likely be charged before they leave the factory to be put into cars.

You need a paid Spotify account.

My Geico premiums kept on going up. Switched to Progressive and saved a LOT of money.

Don't roll your eyes at me. I know filtration systems and their effects on airflow because it's a large part of my job in regulating industrial air pollution. If this is doing what is claimed, it's like putting a hyper-efficient (i.e. higher filtration) filter on your home HVAC system. That...

FYI: I had the funk in my AC, but didn't have the time to order filters (Austin service dept is out of them - of course) or clean the evaporator prior to a road trip. My solution was to run the heater on high (I plugged in to my charger and opened the garage door to ventilate the heat some) for...

This location is really crucial for long trips to New Mexico from places like Austin. Really wish they'd get their act together!

Beware that this will likely drastically reduce airflow through your system and increase strain on the fan motors.

Austin service center says they are out of them. Ridiculous, really.

Please stop recommending USB memory sticks for Sentry, etc. SSDs are vastly better in the car environment. Many USB memory sticks don't have the thermal envelope to survive a car much less the continual read/write cycles. Don't be cheap and get a Samsung T5 or similar.
