Model 3 Highland (US) Waiting room

I checked this morning and it’s still making sound from the outside and inside. It’s been sitting there for more than 10 hours and do you think the fan is cooling the electronics?

Nope not normal. Check with service and open a ticket.

Noticed what I think is a software issue on my new M3 LR. The internal temperature sensor reading is incorrect. This only happens when the car is "off" or not in use. Because of this, the car constantly triggers the cabin overheat reading.

I think it's software because, well, it only happens when not in use. It behaves like a moving average and slowly moves to >100°F and slowly moves down to set temperature. But it only "moves" only when in use.

Anyone else notice this?

Switched to white interior but they want me to pick up today so now it shows me as order on hold.

Not likely a bug. I'd recommend looking up "Greenhouse Effect". While parked, the inside of your car will be several degrees higher than the outdoor ambient temperature.

Got it! Welcome home Elektra! More on delivery and driving once I get more time with it. This and another one were the first red M3 deliveries in Tampa. View attachment 1033668

this really is a very lovely color.. one of the best I’ve seen. It reminds me of something Infinity did a few years back for one of their top performance cars.

Question for anyone who knows.. what have they actually DONE to make it look this nice, this thick, rich, luminous, matalic., etc.. is it just more coats? Is there something special added to the paint? Is there something in the clear coat that comes out THROUGH the paint? It really looks special in person.

What?!! You switched to white interior, and they offered you a pick up today? I am sure you meant black!

Finally took some photos! Other than the buzzing noise, it looks gorgeous!

what buzzing noise? and do you think it’s a normal sound?

[jiren]

if you get that checked out. let me know what the sound was. in the manual there is a list of normal sounds. i didn’t hear that one.

@Whitezoid, sorry! Meant to type switched to black interior. I saw it available in app and decided I didn’t want to chance waiting two more months. If someone picked it up tonight and I lost that one, may jump back to white but will see.

I'm sure there's a greenhouse impact. But there's no way the interior temperature is 100° while the outside is 70°. Sunshine or otherwise.

Not at all unrealistic given the glass roof.

Really waffling on my decision between white to black interior. Just lost all confidence in white interior anytime soon after the most recent EDD change. Don’t mind waiting til May but June seems too far out to me. Sold my Y on 3/1 and have car to use, but I’m ready to go on the 3!

If in the direct sun and ~75F outside my black m3 will hit ~95F inside

Just finished detailing the black one. IMO the ‘24 is so much more visually appealing than the legacy.

If in the direct sun and ~75F outside my black m3 will hit ~95 c inside

95C? holy smokes.. lol

 

[j2brian703]

95C? holy smokes.. lol

I noticed this too today. Outside was around 70 and the inside reached 95 and the fan turned on automatically.

95F I could see, but 95C is like 200F.
