Thats awesome! I was told that it is our option to pick up at the service center or have home delivery. The SA i spoke to for the Westheimer location said that i would be picking up from the SC. Would be nice if they call and say mine is ready next week.
Sorry to hear your vehicle had these issues. Don’t get discouraged if first visit to service center doesn’t get everything resolved Or they say items are “in specification (spec)”. Try again at different SC or ask to speak to manager at current SC. I almost decided to sell my 2022 MYP which would have resulted me never considering a Tesla purchase again. However I decided to try a second SC , Los Angeles Inglewood /Westchester on Centinela Blvd) since first SC did not have availability until a month later just after spending 4 hours to fix some issues. Second SC, Los Angeles Inglewood /Westchester SC, really came through and restored my faith in Tesla as a company and I have decided to keep the MYP.
I have driven 2021 MYLR & own 2022 MYP. The ride of MYP is sportier (rougher some say) than MYLR because MYP is a bit lower than MYLR. The MYP has sport oriented springs which are shorter / stiffer and the other areas of suspension are tuned for a performance vehicle. The MYP has 21 inch rims which allow only performance tires with a much smaller sidewall than 19 & 20 inch rims. Smaller sidewall means you feel road characteristics a lot more. On newer roads the materials are some sort of rubber and asphalt and the car rides so smooth and quiet. On older roads which are rocks mixed with tar or concrete slabs, the road rumble is much more. A larger sidewall helped tone down such noises. All cars suffer from this though. I had a 75D model s for the past 2 weeks and drove my pals 2021 Model X for a few days. Both of those cars had a much quieter ride on the same old streets. Guess there is some extra noise dampening engineering in those vehicles. Both those vehicle’s co figurations had tires with more sidewall than MYP. Eventually I will get a set of 19 inch rims with tires that have a lot more sidewall. Probably just change the tires when I feel the need for extra comfort (family rode trips) vs. the ultimate sporty feeling. Might opt to get third party adjustable coil overs such as redwood motor sports, mountain pass performance, unplugged performance, etc. But I don’t think I need them badly. The tinkerer in me is Curious to see how awesome I can make the MYP.
I ordered a silver grey LRY in Jan. First given July delivery, then May, now Dec. What’s with that?
My take on Austin is that the crew working there is kinda new to assembling the model y & they might have their own growing pains. It’s all a gamble and a roll of the nice. Most cars coming out of Fremont are fine. If we had a sub forum about the topic of good builds, we’d probably see a lot of people posting. Upset persons tend to be more vocal. My own 2022 MYP (12/2021 build) had many issues so I am familiar with being vocal on these forums
.What’s your judgement of the current 2022 MYP vs a M3? I’m coming from a 2020 M3, curious if it’ll be a smoother ride at all since it’s still higher off the ground and heavier feeling?
This is normal. I had a 9/2021 OD and it bounced around a lot. Then I figured I’d get a MYLR and that date bounced around a lot further and further. Then got an opportunity to get a MYP within days from inventory that was not yet listed on tesla web site. Just happened to be calling tesla to see if any demo cars were for sale and they noticed a few inventory car’s which were sitting on Fremont lot. Purchasers backed down at last second.
I don’t think MYP will be smoother ride than M3LR. I looked at the notes I wrote down after my 2022 M3LR test drive and it said this.overall, M3LR had a slightly smoother ride than MYP. M3LR seemed to cushion intense sudden jolting road bumps a tad more (not a lot) than MYP. M3LR cabin noise seemed less than MYP probably due to 18 inch wheels with tires that had more sidewall (than MYP). Also less noise due to M3 being a covered hatchback vs MY being SUV with large open/uncovered rear cargo area with larger glass roof. If you get any MY build I suggest planning for a cargo area cover, thick plastic mats to go over the cargo area flooring. Many people fill the empty areas next to wheel wells with blankets to help absorb sound As well as fill in the storage areas under cargo floor. These are common actions taken by SUV owners.
In 8 -10 days after I got that call/text I got a vin. I also had a similar EDD. Now I'm 15-19th waiting to confirm delivery date.
I just traded my 2021 M3 for a 2022 MYP, way better ride in my opinion. I really love it. Build was flawless too. Really impressed.
I ordered the same car and got Dec too.
From everything I’ve read, white is the most backed up color. Every color is being delivered but white.
