    Is it bad for the interior to get too hot?

    In case it hasn't been mentioned, Sentry Mode does not allow cabin temp control to enable for some reason. If you rely on that while parking in the sun keep in mind your fan-only or ac mode cabin cooling will not turn on.

    Unplugged Performance Front Lip

    Pretty happy with my blue UP front lip! Can't really say it has given me the efficiency bump I was hoping for but that's alright.

    Unplugged Performance Front Lip

    Dig the look. Did you guys see a range increase as UP and recent publications are claiming? Did you also install it yourselves?

    Effect of disinfectants on seat materials?

    If you disable cabin cooling and the cabin gets above 132.5F, it'll kill the virus, too. Probably not a great idea for the rest of the cabin, though. :)

    Does dual motor make a big difference in terms of power, enjoyment, etc?

    Enjoyment is subjective– to each his/her own. I love my LR RWD because of what it enables me to do each day, commute ~80 miles and pay next to nothing for energy and contribute little to no additional pollution that wasn't already being added by non-green power plants. Even in the cold of...

    What is the most reliable android phone with Tesla Model 3?

    Pixel 3 is great with the car; no issues except for the ones I cause.

    Sentry Mode Disabling Cabin Overheat Protection?

    I just ran a fairly robust test and can confirm - on 2019.32.2 - this issue persists. Anyone else confirm this is still an issue?

    Molded mud flaps arrived

    Took the replacement flap, hopefully fits the fender better this time around. Are people putting PPF or molding tape around edges to keep things tight and paint safe?

    Molded mud flaps arrived

    Yep, appreciate the instructions (hope they help someone else); I did this near exactly on the driver side first and it turned out fine. The mold just seems to be a bit deformed up top on the passenger side. I contacted the Seller (bestone2014) and they promptly replied offering either a small...

    Molded mud flaps arrived

    That's the front passenger flap. Back flaps look flush.

    Ebay order - does anyone elses flap(s) not fit flush to the car?

    Mobile Service never showed up, is this typical?

    No issues so far; last one showed up on time, was very polite and helpful.

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    No sound from the speaker here either, post 2019.20.x. HVAC makes a similar noise, btw, but it is consistent and no where near as grating.

    Model 3 Pedal Upgrade?

    Which did you install (assuming toplife) and how have they held up? Thanks!

    Keyfobs are back!

    Slightly Offtopic: What phone do folks that have problems with the passive lock/unlock via Tesla app have? I have a pixel 3 and it has worked flawlessly since day one. It does drive me crazy that it'll lock when I'm standing right next to it (particularly in front), but when I go to open any...

    What's up with this now? - 3 weeks of ownership and several problems...

    Late March '19 owner here (LR RWD) and many more issues than rationally reasonable for a brand new car as well. Despite though, I am happy with the car, and Tesla Service has been fantastic to me. Hoping this is it for you, and the future is problem free!

    Red vs. Blue: Post your best pics and vote

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    Thanks for sharing the theory. I'll remove the painters tape and give it a try today.

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    Since my MCU swap, the hissing has actually returned albeit more subdued. I've put the painters tape back on, sadly.

    Inaccurate or missing speed limit data: Tesla should be able to read speed limit signs in real time!

    This is great information albeit a little discouraging. Interpreting signs accurately is clearly a table-stake I thought Tesla had in the bag already. It is absolutely one that has to be in place for L5 autonomy... hyper accurate map data will never be sufficient.

    Just got 12.1 update.

    By the by, EAP came back after toggling the switches in the driving menu (all three beta features were on already). Not sure if it actually helped however, maybe it was fixed remotely. Tesla service was fairly attentive and helpful providing some insights via email while my appointment was a...

    Just got 12.1 update.

    8.6 -> 12.1.1 Broke Adaptive Cruise, AP, and NoA. So far a reboot and a power cycle did not bring the functions back. First update for me that broke something. My three hours of freeway-parking-lot commuting is back to factor major suck.

    Anyone return their car who ordered after 2/28?

    Good news- I did get my down payment back (via direct deposit!) about six weeks after returning the car. And, the Tesla loan for the rest was cancelled two days before the first payment due. Alls well that ends well, I suppose,

    Anyone return their car who ordered after 2/28?

    Thanks for the replies @Arcadian, @chimerasaurus. It seems the only way to create waves is to pressure the local delivery team. I have called a few times the past week leaving messages, and finally got a hold of someone yesterday. I got confirmation that the return is in progress - for weeks...

    Anyone return their car who ordered after 2/28?

    Chiming in for hopefully some encouragement as I have a similar story. I bought, returned, and rebought all early last month. I also financed about half of the car. I'm at four weeks since the return (also with zero confirmation of doing so) with no words from Tesla whatsoever. I need a...

    What is your best Wh/mi record?

    Lots of downhill to offset the climb. Total trip was around 300Wh/mi. Fun chart, though

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    Had to bring it to a SC, always have since I'm within 30 miles of one. I would doubt mobile can do it, even if it is an option though.

    Does auotpilot present a looming apocalypse for Tesla?

    People were elected president and seem to maintain said presidency with a long career of saying "worse", factually speaking. In other words, not worried.

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    The thing that concerns me is that I'm pretty sure that the speaker emitting a sound is a symptom of something worse. This seemed to be confirmed (to some varying degree) from the folk(s) who had Tesla replace their MCU.

    Mysterious static/hissing noise

    Strange noise surprise shortly after delivery

    Yep, nothing I do seems to change it. and it is very inconsistent. However, I think it may have something to do with being driven. Once it starts (at least 15 min before it starts from being cold) it seems to continue until it cools again. Otherwise, it doesn't matter if audio system is on or...

    Strange noise surprise shortly after delivery

    LR RWD picked up Saturday afternoon. By the time I arrived at home - 45 minutes from pickup location - this odd noise persisted no matter what I/we did. Tesla tech support had me completely shutdown and restart the car (takes about 5 minutes) all the while the sound persisted, as in...
