With the lack of stalks we might as well be doing something with our hands haha.Ahhh, so that's how it is. Highland drivers only acknowledge other Highlands...

At least now I know where I stand...![]()
I'm pretty sure mine doesn't turn on if nobody is sitting there.Has anyone found a way to keep the rear AC turned off?
The screen turns off if it detects no one is in the seats which is awesome, but the AC stays on. I can turn it off from the front screen, but next trip it turns itself back on.
Just check it this morning if you could remember? My screen stays off but if I go into climate, rear it turns back on..I'm pretty sure mine doesn't turn on if nobody is sitting there.
Yeah will doJust check it this morning if you could remember? My screen stays off but if I go into climate, rear it turns back on..
Maybe my dog seat cover is doing it, I’ll try taking it out and see if that’s causing it (could be).
The front fan is noticeably quieter with the rear AC off.
Yep, noticed it last night, if none sitting in passenger seat, it's off on that side. Might want to buy a blow up friend who can come on drives with you.Has anyone found a way to keep the rear AC turned off?

Yeah, definitely had nothing coming out of the rear vents with nobody sitting there. Are the belts buckled when you have the dog cover on?Just check it this morning if you could remember? My screen stays off but if I go into climate, rear it turns back on..

Ive been eyeing off a robot "friend" but i guess a blow up one would work also. I could also use the tyre inflator i bought from aliexpress...Yep, noticed it last night, if none sitting in passenger seat, it's off on that side. Might want to buy a blow up friend who can come on drives with you.
Good point. Ill have a look.Yeah, definitely had nothing coming out of the rear vents with nobody sitting there. Are the belts buckled when you have the dog cover on?
Might do that as part of a 6 month review or something. The Myth Busting video seemed to cause a big drop off in subscribers, guessing most of my viewers are well aware of the facts already so not really a good target market for this sort of video.Ok, gathering some data so I can make a suggestion for a certain persons YouTube EV myth busting series

My steering wheel had the creak come back, I adjusted the angle of the dangle and it went away. At first I thought it was to do the aircond blowing hot air on it making it expand but it’s still a bit of a mystery. When it’s cooler, it doesn’t do it.Hey All
Cars in at service for the issues mentioned earlier. I went for a test drive with the technician this morning before drop off:
1. Flickering sound with windows down hear noises under car. This is on and off (didn't happen today) it started ever since driving over a rough gravel/rock surface last week - tesla rep said could have been rocks stuck in wheels or arches which may be gone now but will check to ensure no damage
2. Passenger door rattle on music (bass) - confirmed window switch issue - will replace/fix
3. Creaky steering wheel - will investigate, wasn't as noticeable this morning but we did replicate it on some occasions like turning going up/down incline low speeds - he confirmed the noise but will need to investigate the issue
4. Creaky Centre arm-rest - has been noisy and creaky AF, today typical NOTHING no sound. Makes me wonder as I usually have that ali express centre console tray underneath and today I took it out for testing, perhaps with that console tray the armrest is the issue? Ie. its not closing properly, perhaps a few mm off, so its causing creak. He will check with other M3 highlands there to confirm. I told them usually the sound does occur end of day after car is warm been sitting outside in sun all day maybe heat causing expansion and creaks, as I never notice it in the mornings usually.
Will report back once I get my car, on positive note love the free ubers!

Great to hear you got some decent service. I've also got a creaky steering wheel. Occurs when pushing on the right side of the steering wheel. Not bad enough to be concerning in function but just enough to be annoying (to me). Only started happening in the past month or so and not in the first 2 months that I owned the car.Alrighty, update time!
Does it do it when the car in in Park?This creaky steering wheel issue is super frustrating for us all..
Just to throw my experience into the mix as we are intel gathering, mine creaks whether it’s cold or warm, whether the car has been in my garage or left outside for 8 hours, one handed or two handed driving (creaks when applying pressure against the wheel, or with a normal grip at 9 and 3, or without any pressure at all).
I haven’t tried adjusting the wheel position yet, so will see if doing that yields any results.
She’s a super creak, super creak.
She’s super creaky, yow.
