    Lowering Springs: TSportline vs Unplugged vs Eibach

    Hey, is there a "Classifieds" forum anywhere? I'm sorry to add to this post, but it seemed like the most recent and relevant one. I've got an unopened box of Unplugged Performance moderate springs for LR RWD (which would also work for SR and SR+). I'm in the Bay Area. DM me if there's any...

    Review: Unplugged Performance Moderate Springs

    Oh thank you. It's interesting that you mentioned that you didn't see a difference in ride quality. I wonder if that has to do with the springs being made for the LR. Either way, I think your setup is exactly what I wanted - 15/20 mm BLOX spacers + UP moderates. It looks nice. To the OP -...

    Review: Unplugged Performance Moderate Springs

    While I wait on a response from UP, does anyone know whether or not the springs for the LR RWD can be installed on the SR+ RWD? If they're not compatible, then I've got an unopened box of moderate springs available for sale. It's for the LR RWD.

    Potential Model 3 buyer with 164-180 mile daily commute

    I commute 70 miles each way on a SR+. I get home with about 65 miles left. If you go 65 mph you shouldn't have an issue IMHO, but you’d be cutting it pretty close and you’d be limited in the fun you can have behind the wheel. On a SR+, You might be left with 30-40 miles, so you’d almost never...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    Pardon my ignorance, but what’s this $5K rebate you’re referring to?

    White/White interior/Aero Wheels

    Just note that the aero rims also jut out more than the sidewalls of the tires, so its prone to curb rashes. 4 weeks in and already scraped both right tires pretty easily. Its not very forgiving.

    EXPERIENCE: 2400 miles trip Model 3 SR Plus

    And it’ll be 10-15% less if you upgrade the tires ... Thx for sharing your experience, OP. Cant wait to read about Day 2. Safe travels.

    Worth to wait for Y versus 3 now?

    This is what I struggled with for about 2 days. I placed a reservation on the Y after the announcement and then decided to cancel it and pull the trigger on the 3SR+ before the end of Q1. No regrets whatsoever. Ample range and trunk space for most days and the battery is more efficient. Only 1...

    Does Standard Autopilot Swerve to Avoid Collision?

    Thats really interesting and definitely not what i expected. I always believed that EAP would swerve out of the lane and recognize its surroundings quickly to determine if it were safe to do so. These videos had me convinced. I suppose we’d need the camera angle from inside to verify.

    Does Standard Autopilot Swerve to Avoid Collision?

    Does anyone know if standard AP can actually swerve out of the way to avoid collisions? Or is this only an Enhanced Autopilot (EAP) feature? I'm aware that it won't change lanes, so I'm worried that it'll only brake to avoid collisions. It was this video that had me curious about the answer...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    I think this whole argument Matt is trying to make is about whether we should be considering Tesla’s financial health when making a decision to ask for a refund despite being happy with a SR+. The answer to me is “hell no!” I do not feel like I’m taking advantage of Tesla or demanding anything...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    It's also amazing how many people pass judgement on others on this forum and reply on threads with comments that offer absolutely zero value. This thread is about wanting to downgrade to SR and people waiting for information on how to do that following communication from the company stating they...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    Are you telling me that these same numbers never presented itself before the 11th hour? That seems highly unlikely given they had 3 years to plan for the SR manufacturing. It seems more likely that they intended to run A/B testing during the early production phase so they can make an informed...

    Tesla Lending Interest Rates

    For what it's worth, I was able to get a better rate BEFORE applying for Tesla financing, and asked them if their Best Rate Guarantee could be applied. Instead of offering to credit me with a lump sum refund - which is how the program is supposed to work - they matched the rate upfront. YMMV, so...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    Still no updates to my in-store or support requests, even after telling them that all I wanted to do with the refund was to put it towards a down payment on the Y. I love my SR+ and I wouldn't be that upset if they don't grant me a chance to downgrade, but admittedly, it does pain me to see...

    Do I Get to Inspect the Car Before Signing Anything?

    Van Ness ... thats where I picked mine up. You get to inspect it for a bit and they do a walkthrough. Had 25 miles and someone def drove the vehicle for sure as there was a bluetooth connection already. It was not a return but it looks like they either take the cars home with them occasionally...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    I've called twice, went straight to the store. I was supposed to get a call back today with info but didn't get one. I guess they're still figuring things out. Oh well ... the waiting game is on.

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    Has anyone who has already taken possession of the car and is past their 7 day return period actually been able to downgrade or know how to at this point? The $2,000 or $2,500 ... whatever they’re offering is just going to go towards a DP on the Y. :)

    I am currently driving a SR+, can I downgrade to SR?

    For what it's worth ... I called both the main Tesla Sales line and also spoke to a Sales Associate at my nearest Tesla store, and neither of them knew how to process the downgrade. They were not given any instructions to do so. The associate told me to try back on Monday.

    More Model 3 changes and leasing now available

    Hardware 3 I just called Tesla Sales to try and downgrade my Standard Plus to a Standard and they mentioned I needed to speak with the person who sold me the vehicle (even though I purchased it online). She couldn't or didn't know how to help. Most likely the latter, since she also mentioned...

    More Model 3 changes and leasing now available

    Sorry if I missed someone stating this already, but since the SR range is software limited - with the larger battery - I can in theory charge to 100% daily and it would be the same as charging to 90% on the SR+ ... right? And all I lose are heated seats in the summer?? That seems like the...

    Model 3 TeslaCam USB Port May Have Fried my Memory Card

    Hmm ... interesting. I think the car fried my 16GB Kingston USB stick as well. I posted this on a different thread. Unlike your situation, an X never appeared. It just stopped recognizing the stick when I checked it one morning. I tried different machines and none of them recognized the device...

    USB corruption for dashcam recording

    I loved that the name of the company is probably pronounced as “diarrhea”. It goes well with fart mode. Makes my kid laugh. No, really, it was just about the price and features for that price. Apparently someone opened it up and found Samsung parts.

    Littleton CO Service Center Model 3 delivery question

    Dont worry about it. My first post was dumped on too. Just take it like a champ. Like any other car forum or social media site, you still will find a handful of pretentious people who think they’re helping the community by talking down on others.

    Kind of regretting getting SR+ and not LR or AWD, anyone?

    I would go for it. I asked for an inventory MR before my SR+ pickup and none were available.

    USB corruption for dashcam recording

    I decided on going down the SSD route, since it was reasonably cheap and because I can partition the drive for USB music playback as well. Specifically, I looked for a SSD using 3D Nand technology after your guidance. I dont know much about this stuff apart from it being better than 2D Nand...

    Kind of regretting getting SR+ and not LR or AWD, anyone?

    I hear ya, OP. I hope you are able to run a few more tests before deciding what to do. Im having anxiety thinking about what winter will bring, even though winters here are pretty mild. I just got my SR+ last Friday. My commute is 70 miles each way. I HOPE the distance itself is long enough...

    Garage Door Opener Available for SR/SR+

    I hadn't seen this. Thanks for sharing! Now that there's a price for Homelink, I'm starting to think I should have pulled the trigger on a mid-range instead, haha. $300 Homelink $35 Frunk Mat $95 Basic Interior Mats +++ $3000 more for full premium and 10% more range now seems like a bargain. :)

    USB corruption for dashcam recording

    I never received an "X", the camera icon just disappeared sometime in the last two days. And it looks like my USB stick no longer works. I took the stick out and plugged it into my Macbook and it's no longer recognizing it. Today marks a full week since I first formatted the drive and plugging...

    Cancelled PYD order

    For what it's worth, I wasn't trying to trash the Y at all. I love the car and I'm really excited for it to be released. Thanks for your insight! Some other threads suggested that it might be best to wait after a few months (or even years), which is why I ended up canceling the order...

    Cancelled PYD order

    I decided to transfer my Volt lease (would have ended on 8/27/20) and pickup a M3 standard plus to get the tax credit. Waiting until 2021 for the PYD so that the initial bugs could be worked on. At that point, I would trade up. Good move or bad move? Anyone else cancel their order yet...
