Only difference between version 3 and 4 was a latching sensor to make sure the hood loop is seated in the latch before pulling down. There were also inconsistencies in the manufacturing on Tesla's part. My two MYs are identical build and less than 50 apart for VIN and the lower threaded mounting points were off from each other about an inch from car to car.
Zoso - my vin is 1142 and I am having that issue with the mounting points at least on my driver's side, is your VIN in that range of mine?
I keep all the “in case of emergency...” items in the frunk. Those scenarios are generally unscheduled, so the material should be in the car. Dirty hands are nearly guaranteed. Also, one needs to open and/or close the frunk while holding stuff. Tow hook. Jack adapters. Air pump. Mobile Connector and its adapters. Adapters I built using appliance pigtails. Work gloves. A few tools. Thus, seriously considering this.
No, unlike the Model 3 Frunk latch, there isn’t much lateral wiggle room and very little up & down movement for the Model Y, so it didn’t necessarily need marking. Also, because the height of the hood relative to the quarter panels was affected, it really seems to point to the struts, or more likely the positioning of the mounts as they weren’t a good fit to the contour of the inside metal frame. The mounts have a strange shape which would suggest the design was intentional, but it just didn’t fit the surrounding metal very well. I even double checked the picture in the install doc as well as the Tesla Raj video to make sure I had it oriented correctly. Did anyone else notice that the mounts weren’t very flush to the metal even though the screw was going in correctly/smoothly?
There is quite a bit of lateral and vertical play in the front latch when the bolts are loose. You need to close the frunk to the point when the loop is right by the catch, stoop down and verify it is at the center of the catch. Once the frunk is closed, it's obvious if the vertical adjustment needs correction.
Yes, I’m very familiar with aligning the hook with the latch as I installed both the Trunk & Frunk openers in our Model 3 last summer. In the case of the hood misalignment on our Y, the soft close is working correctly and the front of the hood where the hook and latch are are both flush in height and centered. It’s the sides of the hood closer to the corners that are misaligned after the install, which seem to suggest that the mounting might be the cause.
with regards to your question about the mounts not being flush, I was told by support (Smart Tesla) that you should be aware of "extra" seam sealer that could be preventing the mount from sitting flush.
I had a lot of seam sealer where the mounts goes on the passenger side. Cut a bit away with a utility knife but even then it did not sit perfectly. No big deal as the unit is a ball mount which has more than enough movement/forgiveness for the unit to function as intended.
I wish, the Smart Tesla unit used the same mounting brackets and struts, this is the problem they created for themselves and us few that have issues with bracket placement (height issues).
Just completed the installation of the latest update (2021.4.6) and noticed the frunk button is no longer working. I can still open/close the frunk via Tesla app and onboard screen. I've reached out to Raymond @ TeslaOffer, pending response. This is on for TeslaOffer's Model Y frunk Mark 4.0. Wondering if others are experiencing the same.
On 2021.4.6, all are working fine - app, screen, frunk emergency button. Tesla Offer Auto Frunk 4.0 installed 1 month ago or so.
Sorry for the false alarm, it must have been user error. I just tried it again before unplugging and plugging back in the frunk button and it worked... nothing to see here!
Can anyone point me where I can find the latest software for the Tesla Offer MK4? I can't find it on their website. My emergency button randomly stopped working as well but I have not tried unplugging (running software from factory in 12/2020).
The site mentions "software update will be provided by Tech Support if needed" Have you tried re-initializing the main module - basically STEP 8 of the install guide. Double tapping the black botton of the control module will also lock the latch vs manually pushing down to lock the latch...then follow Step 8. I've had Latch sensor error that won't go away after following Step 8...last thing I did was to unplug the power connection (from battery) and let the Y go on deep sleep overnight...and reconnect reinitialize the TO module the next morning and all was well.

Hi it's me again... so it turns out the emergency button is no longer working. I've tried unplug and plug the emergency button, nada. I've tried reinitializing follow STEP 8, no luck. I've unplugged the power connection (from battery) and will let the car go to sleep overnight. Will reconnect, reinitialize tomorrow morning... stay tuned!
