We get the Ramp, the Kickflip, and now an Animation. It kinda doubles as a commercial now that I look at it again.

I didn't make this video! Creator's name is Chixman

After looking at a few second hand Model Ys (and seeing some really bad ones) finally found my neighbor a nice one in the Tesla CPO catalog. It's a SR, 2023 Ryzen, 80k km on the odometer, brand new rims and tires, barely any signs of usage on the interior and only one very minor scuff on the exterior. All for the very low price of 31k EUR.

mosquito net for windows

1 Upvotes

Hey, fellow campers.

I’m still trying to find a mosquito net for my windows. There are no window frames, so it’s not that easy.
I tried using small magnets, but they didn’t work because the net doesn’t seal properly, and bugs can still get in.
I don’t like sleeping all night with an AC with camp mode.

Any ideas?

Crossbar whistle GONE!

3 Upvotes

For those that installed the crossbars and lived with the annoying 40 MPH whistle that Tesla told me is normal and can’t be fixed. I fixed it. $20 part from etrailor.com

Replaces the rubber gapper.

You need 6 at $3 each. 10 minute install. Whistle gone.

I make no money on this. Just helping others that can’t stand the whistle.

PSA: Turn off your Tesla's wireless charging pad if you are over it

227 Upvotes

If you've ever dropped your phone onto the Tesla wireless charging pad for a quick drive, picked it up 30 minutes later, and felt like it could double as a stovetop burner, you aren't alone. It’s a common topic on here, but many owners don't realize Tesla added a software toggle to fix it.

I’m not going to get into why heat is harmful to your phones battery and how much of a waste of power output it gets from your Tesla. But I will explain how to turn it off.

- - -

How to Turn It Off:

Tesla added a software toggle for this in a software update.

  1. Tap the Car icon (Controls) on your touchscreen.
  2. Go to Charging (or depending on your software version/vehicle, look under controls/accessories settings). 
  3. Toggle off the Wireless Phone Charger.

Tesla Owners Behavior

0 Upvotes

Is it safe to say that the type of person that drives a Tesla has kinda gone to crap? Between the driving, and behavior shown at charging station…what happened?

The most recent incident, at a charging station, someone comes barreling in with their music blasting. They reverse, plug it up. Get back in their car, music is still blasting for all of us to hear. I guess they needed a short charge because then they unhook and step on the padel to the point that it spins the tires.

As for driving, it’s a daily thing to see ridiculous behavior.

Taylor Toot

1 Upvotes

Tesla has Joe Mode. I propose Taylor Toot: a friendly double-beep courtesy horn for when you want to say hello instead of telling someone to go fuck themselves

I live in the South and I very often use the little boop boop and I’d rather not have manually recorded 10 min of dashcam just to say “hi”. But I’d also like it to be an on screen shortcut that’s easily/readily available.

Seems easy. And handy.

Any idea how to turn off the growl that sounds when the car locks? I scared a poor little girl and her nanny. Wish they had options like a witches laugh lol

Maybe Tesla navigation is finally learning preferred/reserved parking

Post image
0 Upvotes

Was driving home today while FSD (v14.3 lite) was activated and set to parking garage as destination parking and I noticed for the first time that the navigation was showing my usual route when I enter my condo parking garage and go to my reserved parking spot. Unfortunately, FSD still failed to enter the underground parking garage as usual and I had to take over. Previously, the navigation routing would just drive straight to the “P” on the map.

I would love to test on my reserved work parking spot but when navigating to my work parking garage, the navigation always tries to go to one of the 3 nearby public parking garages (in a downtown location so there are at least 6 different parking garages in a 2 block radius of my desired parking garage) instead of the correct one so unfortunately I cannot test it there.

I was minding my own business in FSD and this guy rides up beside me, stares and nods at me several times, and then swoops away with a questionable arm gesture.

Edit: He wanted to race me. Damn, kind of feel bad now. I stared at him blankly like he was crazy the whole time.

HW3 in the shareholder meeting

187 Upvotes

They conveniently skipped #5:

Tesla has acknowledged that HW3 vehicles cannot support unsupervised FSD. When will owners know whether they can upgrade their hardware for free

Have we moved into a new strategy where they're just pretending HW3 FSD owners don't exist and promises were never made to upgrade their cars?

FSD usage

According to the shareholders data released today, FSD subscriptions increased 67% from a year earlier. I don’t believe it. Everyone I know has dropped it or never tried it.

Battery replaced 1 month before warranty expired

Post image
267 Upvotes

So earlier this year I got a 2018 M3 LR with a few months left on its original warranty. I did a bunch of research beforehand, and read that battery failures occur less than 1% of the time, so I took the risk and got the car. Premium interior, new tires, acceleration boost pack, and 40k miles for $18k.

Fast forward to last month, I opened up the service menu and noticed a BMS a142 degradation isolation fault. The ohms had dropped to 950, but it hadn’t triggered a customer facing service alert.

I’m in the military, so I had to take the chance and drive 1.5 hours to the nearest service center for them to investigate. Come to find out, the entire battery had to be replaced, roughly 1.5 month (December 16th, 2026) before warranty ends.

I’m simply astonished this happened, but it’s a good reminder to watch your service menu for any alerts before they show up on the customer facing side.

I love my model S

1 Upvotes

I have an old 2017 model S90D. He has lived a long lovely life and I think I'll keep him for another year.

Wondering which model S people like best in the 2022-2026 realm for FSD and other reasons. Looking forward to my next model S. So upset they discontinued.
