    Does FSD is is tied to the used car ?

    FSD stays with the car. Can't be transferred except for two brief periods in time, where the owner had to keep the car until FSD was transferred (and removed from the current car), or traded in to Tesla.

    AS-1 Line Tint

    I just got that done today, so haven't tried it out yet in the sun. However, I'm sure it will help because I got the whole windshield done in 70% and the strip done in 20%, making the strip equivalent to 14%.

    Backwards tire?

    I bet there's nothing wrong with the way the tires are mounted. I've had non-directional, non-symmetrical tires mounted to where I can't see the date stamps on all of them.

    new Tesla Model 3 18" Photon Wheels - load rating?

    They will sell you the wheels individually, but for a high price. I already asked and got a quote for the price of the newer 18" aero wheels and the newest 18" photon wheels. I forgot what they quoted me and didn't save a record of it, but it was something like $450 per wheel for the photon...

    new Tesla Model 3 18" Photon Wheels - load rating?

    As far as I know from the specs listed in the owner's manual, they are exactly the same except that the new wheels have an offset of +38mm vs the old standard wheels at +40mm. Negligible difference that makes them stick outside more by 2mm. Tesla is probably just simplifying the compatibility...

    Model Y induction rims on Model 3.

    This is what it would look like with OEM Model Y induction wheels and tires. Front would rub unless you put in about 17mm or 18mm spacer. You'd need 255/30R20 tires.

    how come my gen 1 model 3 horn does not work when it is raining?

    Water likely made its way into the horn opening and the metal disc that vibrates to make sound has corrosion. The age being moist from raining or actual water getting inside probably keeps it from working correctly. I've opened one of mine with this issue and cleaned it up to get it working...

    Why can't you order a new Model Y?

    Tesla hides the new order page from the main Tesla.com page, but you can still get to the new order page by clicking on the menu button on the top right. Like others have mentioned, inventory cars are new cars and you can get them quicker.

    Heavy Steering

    I also feel like my new 2023 Model Y LR AWD steering is really heavy compared to my 2018 Model 3 LR RWD. It even makes my left hand numb from gripping it (I usually only use 1 hand on the steering wheel). I have also not noticed a difference in effort between the 3 steering modes. I've...

    Where to purchase OEM M3 front plate holder?

    I also still have mine and would put it in the mail for just the cost of that.
