    Dog Owners Back Seat Question

    Agree about the tethering. The hammock is only used to protect my seats but is in no way a safety measure. My dogs are tethered using a proper strap that attaches to the seatbelt.

    Dog Owners Back Seat Question

    Along with hammock, I used dog door protectors in my Model 3 for four years with the velcro and plastic tabs that slide down into the door. My rear windows were tinted with Suntek ceramic at 5%. I rolled the window up-down every day for four years. I removed it last month when I traded it for...

    For sale Ingenext Boost SR for Model 3 SR+ w/980 motor +50hp

    I bought this but never installed it because I'm trading my 2019 Model 3 SR+ in. 0-60 in 4.6 seconds from 5.3. There is an active ingenext thread in TMC and Reddit. Since I didn't install it, I can't give a review or feedback. See this link to ingenext the site...

    Canada Waiting Room

    Ordered MYP in black March 3rd, Vancouver. They are estimating a March delivery. Trading in my 2019 SR+ was told if delivered in March will get 8000kms in supercharging approx $500 value. Nice bonus if I get it.

    2021 Model 3 and differences from 2020

    Refresh is all good. I still love my 2019 Model 3. Wheels, black trim and power tailgate can be done aftermarket. No issues with original 240 mile (385km) range and I personally like piano black trim. Even coming from an F10 M5, I enjoy the instant acceleration and one pedal driving. The car is...

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    I just got a text from Tesla Mobile Service. Said my car will be fixed in 1-2 days. I checked and it's already done. Immersive sound is back and it now identifies as a Plus. Not sure is anything else behind the scenes is fixed but car feels faster (Placebo effect) ;)

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    I put the service request in via app as you suggested. Will wait and see. Thanks again for the info!

    I’m getting the same story as you. Case is being handled by the Advanced Technical Support Team. They will be in touch but no ETA given.

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Yep both Stats app and the cars computer are still reporting a rated range of 384-386km (240 miles) so the range is within SR+ spec

    Given lackluster service would you still buy a Tesla?

    Not an S owner but nine months in my Model 3. The car has been trouble free and my Tesla service center has been responsive to all inquiries made regarding bugs. I did have a claim for damage. A $2000 claim with lower rear rocker panel impact and had it back within a week 1/2 at a Tesla approved...

    Darn, I did in fact lose the immersive audio toggle switch in audio settings because of this bug but still have fog lights.

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Appreciate the update! I read somewhere else that Tesla said the new range (402km) is from a manufacturing efficiency. This was not verified though. Would be nice though,

    will the Drako GTE finally give Tesla performance a run for its money?

    That thing is pretty awesome. I wonder how much juice it takes to accelerate like that? The Porsche Taycan Turbo S used 40% battery in just 17 miles during Matt Farah’s roadtest blasting up and down the canyon, LOL!

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    I called Tesla service and they also opened up a ticket. The advisor took about 15 minutes to check the data and came back saying my car was indeed a SR+ car but is running on the SR firmware and like you would have the team contact me about fixing this in approx seven days.

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Good points. Mine is 100% SR Plus. I just chatted with Tesla support online chat. He checked the vehicle data and this is what he said: We're connecting you with a Tesla expert.. Me - Yes I just noticed in my car after 50.7, in the software and easter egg section that shows the image of the...

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Hi, When you press the software section in your Model 3 or the Easter Eggs Tesla logo, it shows an image of you car and VIN as well as a description of your model. Just seems weird because I think the Model 3 Standard has less range and features.

    Standard Range Plus now identified as Standard [Update: bug that only effects Canadian Model 3’s]

    Hi, Nothing serious but anyone with a Standard Range Plus notice the car is now identified as a Model 3 "Standard" in the software section? I'm pretty sure it used to read Model 3 "Standard Plus".

    Premium connectivity

    I assume it will be $14/month for us Canadians. I'm wanting this for satellite maps and visual traffic. Either way Tesla Customer Support apologized and said there is no ETA when we will be able to subscribe ;)

    Feedback from BMW or other premium brand converts?

    Owned all versions from E28 M5 > F10 M5 and now in the Model 3 SR+. The Tesla has exceeded my expectations. Nothing would compel me to go back to BMW at this time. Drove the F90 M5 as the natural progession and while it was fast and handled great, it just felt like a boring rehash of outdated...

    touchscreen & polarized sunglasses?

    Big relief when polarized sunglasses work fine in Model3. HUD in my BMW F10 M5 would dissappear when wearing polarized sunglasses rendering it useless. Don't miss that POS at all :D

    Premium Connectivity cost $9.99/month for many Model 3 versions

    In V10, there is no "visual" live traffic however it does use live traffic data confirmed when you enter in a nav destination when on LTE. I too am waiting to subscribe to premium connectivity to open up for my SR+ to get visual live traffic and satellite maps.

    Price change after ordered

    I had some weird price variations that did not match up to my original agreed to contract. I called the delivery guy listed on the site and he told me those numbers on the site are just numbers they use to get the process started such as financing estimates etc and they are not correct, they are...

    I ordered the RPM spoiler but I cancelled and got a full refund, they were really good about it and refunded me immediately. Was waiting eight weeks and they could not give me an ETA. I said F-it and ended up just taking a chance and buying an el-cheapo China Ebay special for $130 and I am glad...

    Why can't a $100K Raven X do what a $50K Chevy does with its cameras?

    I had 360 view in my '14 M5 and I do miss it but since my Model3 simply destroys my old M5 in most other areas, the omission was forgiven ;). I have towed an express cruiser extensively and rear cam towing views are indeed priceless and would appreciate those if I was towing in an X. The BMW...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    I'm not an expert but this is what Tesla says via Google: Long-range P AWD 75 kWh Long-range AWD 75 kWh (same pack as the P but software limited) Long-range RWD 75 kWh (same pack as the P but software limited) Mid-range 62-kWh (same pack as LR minus battery cells on-board) Standard-range +...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    When the LR RWD received the range boost from 310 to 325 via software, everyone was elated. When they do the same for the base model SR+ there is so much pessimism and negativity. Personally if this turns out to be reality, I don't care how they do it, I'm pretty happy. V10 was an early Xmas...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    So is your SR+ saying 367 kms estimated range or rated range ? My 7.5 month old SR+ displays the rated range of 385 km at 100% however my estimated range is always lower because it's based on the my past driving style over distance. I'm reading this from the Stats app. I made several runs to...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    They have a right to protecting proprietary technology. Full range tests and simple calculations says everything compared to armchair and theoretical assumptions. If Tesla has a buffer what is the issue here? I'll go with Bjorn Nylands explanation and he is a lot more practical, realistic and...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    When the Model 3 was announced, Tesla said the base model would have a 50 kWh battery. They are not hiding anything. Tesla Bjorn's SR+ range test got 240/250 miles on a real world mixed loop. Bjorn calculated 49 kWh from this test. Tesla is simplifying the model designations from moving away...

    All Tesla Models will get Range/Power increase (not just SR+) of 5%

    Interesting and regardless of how this is achieved waking up to read this was pretty exciting. This morning still says rated range is 386 km so guess there will be a software update?

    Do you drive with your fog lights on?

    The fogs in the Model 3 don't really even look like fog lights because the whole light cluster is pretty unique. Most people without Model 3 knowledge would probably not even notice. They were on by default when I took delivery and I just left them as is ;)

    Dancing cars gone?

    The last time I thought dancing cars was gone after 2019.32.2 only to have them reappear a few days later to my utter disgust. Since Ver10 seems like no more dancing cars. Good riddance. Hope I didn't just jinx myself.;)

    USB Game Controllers confirmed to work (at least with Teslatari games)

    Not sure if you found a good controller but Tesla Bjorn just did a video on the best controller and he shows it working in action in all of the games. Look him up. The controller he bought is this one: PowerA Pro EX for Xbox One. Product number: 1505660-01
