    Steering wheel leather coming loose

    Did they replace the wheel? My 8month old Y has some vegan leather coming loose behind the 3 o clock indentation area. Annoying as that’s where my fingers rest all the time. Flappy loose leather. Ugh.

    Rear door closing terrible rattle and glass sounds

    Yup I’ve confirmed on newer builds they slam shut solid. Def a manufacturing issue that plagues older builds, up to 2022 models.

    Side mirror not fully opening when cold

    Anyone else with this issue? I’m not in a freezing snow climate but it can go down to 32 on occasion. This morning was 37 and one side mirror struggles to fully open when unlocking the car and then kind of stays in a limp inbetween state. Folding and unfolding from the screen doesn’t fix it...

    Rear door closing terrible rattle and glass sounds

    any newer builds still having this issue? I’ve heard that non US Ys don’t rattle when closing the rear doors.

    Rolling feeling under driver side floor

    Nope. Just chalked it up to bits and bobs of the front motor and suspension doing traction control abs thing. Our rwd teslas don’t make as much of a fuss up front on the same curbs but still make some noise in the rear.

    Lower side sill trim pitted?

    Wondering if the trim could be sanded down to smooth out the pits.

    Rain - reverse camera

    I don’t have fsd but there’s no way I would trust it’s rear “vision” due to the water spot build up issue. Without radar I’m not sure how a blurred view would work for fsd or human vision.

    Lower side sill trim pitted?

    Anyone else with pitted side sills towards the rear wheel well? Pic is under the rear doors where the side sill meets the start of the rear wheel arch trim. Aside from a recent road trip with lots of rain, no fire roads, trails etc. regular car wash mitt doesn’t make a difference. Some pieces...

    Rain - reverse camera

    our y and 3 undoubtedly have the worst rain blur issues we’ve experienced. Once you get reliant on the backup camera, it can be jarring when you need to back up in the dark with rain pouring. Rain x doesn’t help. Wondering if a simple lens roof/lip could help but if it’s water splashing up, then...

    Problems with BayArea FasTrak on Model Y

    Newbie to fastrak. I have the cav device and mounted behind the display on the flat spot. I’ve never used it for tolls but do I just set to one passenger for me driving solo and just cruise through the fastrak lanes? Is there any confirmation that it worked?

    don’t skimp and get this $10 tool. The sprudger on the far right is what worked for me.

    Unopened Tesla Tequila For Sale

    Is the plastic sticker seal the only thing that proves it’s unopened?

    Wtb. Tesla tequila unopened. Bay Area.

    Dm me with pics and price. Thanks.

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    I’ve concluded that it’s just a poorly designed piece with too many plastic pieces flexing and creating rattles, buzzes etc. it’s not just that cable holder, it’s all the tabs inside the cover and the pieces that attach to the glass. our 3 does none of this but the triple camera housing is...

    Rear door closing terrible rattle and glass sounds

    I know the rear doors simply do not close with a solid thunk, esp compared to the front doors of the Y or the rear doors of the 3 which are solid. Any home fixes to reduce the glass rattling noise when closing the rear doors? My rear doors click and clack when opening and even worse when...

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Crazy the tech was pulling down. There is a plastic cover as you’ve seen in this thread and a bolt that would have broken off…along with other parts up there!

    Annoying noise from drivers seat cushion! Is this normal?

    Mine is starting to make popping sounds when I shift around in the seat. I got it to subside by adjusting the lumbar around. Not ideal but the noises do seem to be related to where the seat is positioned and especially the lumbar bladder rubbing something inside.

    Mine stopped and hasn’t come back. No update either just a good sleep cycle.

    Yosemite SouthGate oakhurst to hetch hetchy and back in MYP?

    Only 80 miles one way but I think there’s a lot of elevation and twists and turns. Car gets right at 300 full charge now. Planning to do it in a couple weeks so weather is cooler. Thanks for any tips!

    Rolling feeling under driver side floor

    When pulling into an angled driveway I’ll occasionally feel something thumping-rolling under the floor of the driver side. It’s not something small like a coin but more substantial. The car is obviously flexing more than normal so I wonder what it could be? Different than the abs/traction...

    Problems with BayArea FasTrak on Model Y

    weird how it works for some though. I have a front windshield tint (xpel xr ceramic), i think that should be OK as it's not "metallic?" Havent installed fastrak yet

    Mr Emblem for MY

    Sold to me...reason I had my eyes on these is because of the OEM quality. Didnt want to roll the dice with what I saw on Amazon.

    Driver side Lumbar adjustment confusing

    Up and down seem to work logically but once I move the lumbar all the way down, I want to push it out (fill lowest part of the seat/back, but it feels like the lumbar is moving back up the seat (to upper back). What’s going on?

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Sad to report that all my fixes aren’t working so I don’t advise others putting tape on the mirror cap. My next attempt will focus on those white tabs I pointed out in a past post. I got some thing neoprene tape to see if that helps absorb/dampen vibrations. Creaks Ike this are usually caused by...

    Driver profiles to be stored in the cloud

    It defaults to the cloud account on both cars. So it’s annoying to switch it back to the local every time

    Driver profiles to be stored in the cloud

    I don’t like this and want to delete the cloud account. Anyone know how? No obvious way in the car UI. My 3 and Y positions are different enough that I don’t want them to be identical.

    Model Y Performance too low?

    I saw a very recent Y non performance (dec temp tag expiration) and was surprised at the wheel gap, has it gone up recently?

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    This is my latest iteration with painters tape on the inside lip of the mirror cap and it seems to be working. The tape is thin enough and puts a barrier between the two hard plastics that rub tightly. Also note these white clips that the triple camera cover snaps into. When I pressed on mine...

    Sentry mode without flashing lights?

    my my22 doesn’t seem to flash like my 3 does. The y sometimes flickers the headlights but the red eye doesn’t show up in the screen. Did Tesla change how sentry mode operates?

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Just took mine off and once you do the mirror cover once, it’s less worrisome! I used felt tape in a number of areas, including inside the mirror cover to make sure the mirror cable and its retaining string/clip didn’t rattle. It seemed to work on my first test drive but on my next drive, creak...

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    If you only put the rubber feet on the end of the triple cover, then you don’t even have to remove the mirror cap/cover. Did you put the feet any higher (closer to headliner) than the lower edge of the camera cover? Btw did you mirror cap/cover have a little notch like mine? Almost looks like...

    3D-printed rear seat shoulder belt guides

    Just got the Amazon clip thing and it works great. Clipping closest to the buckle/female end is just enough to pull the shoulder strap away from my neck. Put on once and leave it. The flat black one looks inconspicuous. Thanks for the tip!

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    I think your rattle is a little different than the other posts as my mirror is rock solid. The crackle buzzing comes from the triple camera cover, the big black cover that snaps in but needs the mirror cover popped off before it completely releases. Curious to see the fix that a couple folks are...

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Can anyone else with a MY22 confirm the little notch in the rear view mirror housing?

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    weird how mine already has a mark like it’s been removed before? Was your mirror noticeably loose or cant tell unless you turn the screw? Also mine is a 22. Does yours have vents on both panels like mine?

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    So just tightening the mirror did the trick? No need to remove the triple camera housing?

    3D-printed rear seat shoulder belt guides

    Took me a second to understand what it was doing! Does it work for your Y issue? How might you improve upon it if you printed something?

    3D-printed rear seat shoulder belt guides

    I was thinking some external hook device like the rear seat belt holder would work, but actually looking at the B pillar and seatbelt adjustment mechanism, just being able to stop the pivot of the belt rotating forward would do the trick. Perhaps some kind of plug that doesn’t restrict free...

    3D-printed rear seat shoulder belt guides

    I’m still trying to find that one perfect seat position so the belt doesn’t dig but it’s been elusive! Maybe impossible as I’ve tried all heights, seat back angles, and forward back combos.

    3D-printed rear seat shoulder belt guides

    Can anyone make a front belt guide to pull the belt away from rubbing one’s neck?

    Have To Share This Genius Product For The Model Y

    Any of these 3D printing guys want to make something for the front belt rubbing on necks? The lowest setting still cuts into necks. Simple guide that pulls the belt tighter to the b pillar would do it.

    Nightmare Experience! Only 500 miles driven...

    Small sample but my recent experience with roadside was great. First time using it in 5 years with 4 teslas. Got a spare tire put on in about 1.5 hours. Had to wait till next morning for new tire to be installed by mobile tech (I had to pay for that service and tire) and they took away the...

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Anyone else with a recent repair tip? So is the earlier posted video not applicable to 2022s? Doesn’t seem like a coincidence and i doubt SCs haven’t dealt with this before.

    Driver Seatbelts

    Reviving old thread. I find this problem too and can’t find a good position that doesn’t run my neck. Some kind of clip that holds the strap against the b pillar would work.

    Secret handshake to directly contact email Tesla?

    Impossible to ask a question without being redirected/funneled into their FAQs whether on the website or app. There’s no proper option to ask a question like “it’s been two months, where’s my license plate?”
