I’ll start with 1 or 2 of each:
By far the most used mod I’ve made is the 3d printed cyber triangle looking door closers I affixed to all 4 doors. Has drastically reduced prints and smudges. I use them much more than I thought I would. I did design my own to save a few bucks, but they look...
It’s already been stated, but a bit more detail:
This is only felt if the batteries are cold and regen is limited while slowing to a stop with cold brakes, generally first thing in the morning. The somewhat new (in the last few years) option to have the manual brakes kick in if regen is limited...
To remain visible. For safety.
That’s the primary purpose of this setting even existing. They’re parking lights. For use when parked. I’d be ultra annoyed if they turned off when I walked away.
the main example I’ll use is pulled over on the side of a snowy dark road, assisting someone in...
Why would switching off of AUTO, let them to continue to act AUTOmatically.
This is not a flaw. My 5 yr old model 3 acts the same. I would be very frustrated if they turned off, as there are many use cases to leave them on after exiting, which I use often, as designed.
I don’t think you have...
Also got this the day after the last update. Had it happen twice in 24 hours. Both of which were present upon entering the vehicle, prior to driving. A power off/on fixed it both times. Hasn’t come back since. Bugs be buggin’.
This makes sense on the beast as they are primarily front wheel drive, and are putting down the majority of your daily drive torque on the front tires, unless you’re getting on it enough to need the rear motors to supplement. The permanent magnet motor is used as the primary drive motor in...
Excellent write up and story. I took delivery of my first model 3 in December 2019
in northern North Dakota. I was amazed at how well the vehicle performs in the bitter months-long cold.
How do you like those wheels/aero covers from t-sportline? I’ve been eyeing them, and think I like the...
There is a setting “minimize lane changes for current drive” that I use when driving on the highway in metro areas to avoid just that. It works well and should only change lanes to absolutely follow a necessary route. If you don’t have anything in gps routing, it should stay in the lane you are...
im out of town and without the truck for a few weeks. If this is unsolved by the time I get home, I’ll test the left and right cornering with affect to the noise.
I have the exact same thing. 9k VIN. 7k miles but started about 1500 miles ago. Live in the Midwest and started when it started getting below freezing at night. Almost like it coincides with the snowflake. Definitely does not sound like coil/cap whine at all. I thought it was wind noise for a...
Any emails from Tesla, or any outstanding supercharger balances? Maybe try adding a different card or payment account to your Tesla wallet. Only time I’ve ever had issues charging at a SC is when I had an expired card and supercharging was disabled until I paid, or I had some kind of charge...
You can also just press and hold on the temp display number on the main Home Screen. After a second or two, all hvac shuts down and the number greys out.
Thank you for the great response. And yeah, that’s an outstanding deal! I like the way the two tone looks, but I have a hard time choosing looks over practicality as the steel is sooooo easy and fast to clean. Yours in one of my favorites so far though.
The mounts are there. Just the access doors to the mounts are gone. So the cheap plastic trim pieces on either side of the roof glass have to be removed or replaced with the ones that have the access doors. But they’re there, per Wes.
Such a strange decision. I have them so I was quoting my...
It’s the Midgate or the motorized tonneau cover. I mean I’m sure there are ways for both, but probably not cheaply or as well/cleanly integrated. The Rivian has this in common.
I use my cover every single day. I might use a midgate a few times a month, tops. The Chevy doesn’t have 4 roof rack...
I had two pretty severe squeaks. One was much more of a creak (drivers b-pillar). I realized that the seat squeaks were self induced, caused by the seat covers I installed rubbing on the center console. Fixed those with a small piece of microfiber each front seat.
the b pillar was severe and...
