Are you able to get the tuner direct from Tesla without a Model S Plaid VIN? I tried that route some time ago and they would not sell one to me. If you are able to get a new one without a VIN let us know.

Sigh. This comment always shows up in any SiriusXM thread. We do not all live in SoCal. Some of us live and drive in mountain areas that have spotty cellular data. Some of us do not have unlimited data on their cell phones. And some of us are in both of these camps. I hope that this aids...

It is easy to find out what processor you have. Car -> Software -> Additional Vehicle Information. Look for "Infotainment Processor". There is news from the thread that I referenced above. An MY owner reports a working Ryzen installation. The M3 group is seeing if someone has the parts and...

Almost everything that you would want to know about this can be found at Factory OEM SiriusXM nearly working in Tesla 2022 Model 3 Unfortunately for the OP, the biggest thing that you should know is that no one has reported getting this working on an AMD Ryzen car. To date the mod only works...

Thanks @AdamAnt for posting your story. My car got hit in an airport parking lot on Saturday (10/21) while it was legally parked. No one was in my car. Sentry caught the whole thing. The license plate of the hit and run vehicle is clearly visible as he backed up into me. At this point in...

Nice write up. I especially like your antenna placement solution. Thanks for doing the work.

Driving in "chill" all the time will help to save your tires. Since the primary driver is not a "quickness" person driving in "chill" should not make a difference. My OEM tires did not last a long time. Neither did my next set. But the set after that I got discounted due to not making the...

Lurking here, thanks for the info. I was considering this for my 2018 but had ultimately decided that I'd rather put the $800 towards my next car. Tesla has confirmed that decision for me since it won't work anyway. I appreciate this forum and the great information. My wife will continue to...

I use the ultra-expensive Mckee's 2020 Cockpit Glass Cleaner. This stuff has worked extremely well for me but I think that it is ridiculously priced. I am afraid, however, to clean the inside of the rear window for fear of damaging the defroster. Since we are talking about cleaning the...

I have no cell data at my house. I have had MyQ for longer than I have had a Tesla. Due to no cell data, getting the car to talk via the internet to the garage door is a non-starter. Homelink works for me because it is not internet connected. It came with my M3 and it was worth the $350 (to...

Note that a 50amp circuit will charge at 40amps. 60amp is required for 48amp charging. Your car will show 40A when charging.

The issue still exists on my car. I actually think that it has gotten worse. I no longer turn Sentry Mode back on from my app after starting the cooling. Fortunately it turns on automatically the next time I park the car or else this would suck even more. So now the workaround for me is...

The ones that I got from ebay did not fit. I ended up buying directly from my service center.

Based on @kirkusss' post above I purchased VW LD7S Alpine Gray Metallic paint from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B098R8YFM2). I touched up my rims today and found it to be just as @kirkusss describes. It's not a perfect match but it is close enough for me. Much easier than trying to match...

FWIW, and it really isn't worth anything, I contacted the manufacturer to ask about the color. Here is the reply: "Unfortunately, we do not have the CMYK or RGB color codes and we do not sell touch up paint. The actual color code is something that could be determined by scanning the wheel at...

It does, sort of. I recently stared a drive from my garage by first noticing that the seat went to my wife's settings when I entered the (unlocked) car. I set the car to my profile and went on my way. It was not long before the car told me that no key was detected. I had to cycle bluetooth...

I just checked my app and see that parts are now available for my M3 and that I can schedule the service. As I am not having any issues with the camera I am going to put this off until I need to have something else done. I would like the factory powered liftgate retrofit that they are doing in...

Drive from Colorado Springs to Steamboat Springs and let me know how that works out for you. Or give it a go over Loveland Pass to Winter Park. Couple that with a cell phone plan that doesn't have unlimited data (Google Fi for me -- even my home is in a cell phone hole and I appreciate the...

See this thread: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/factory-oem-siriusxm-nearly-working-in-tesla-2022-model-3.271704/ There is a lot of information including MY specific installation information. For me, the hardest part is acquiring the Model S/X radio. I have been unable to get one...

Does anyone know how regen affects antilock braking? In other words, do you need to press the brake pedal for antilock braking to be active or will antilock braking activate while the car is braking regeneratively? I suspect that you need to press the brake pedal for antilock braking but I...

19" Hakkapelitta R3 on Replika R241 wheels for my Model Y in Colorado. I am very happy with them. On my Model 3 I run the Michelin Cross Climate 2. This is my first winter on the Cross Climate 2 but I had the Cross Climate+ before that and was happy enough with them to buy the next version...

I learned about "McKee's 37 MK37-640 20/20 Cockpit Glass Cleaner" on some TMC thread. You can probably find it with search. Anyway, the stuff is stupid expensive but for me it worked when nothing else did. It cleaned up marks like these as well as what I assume was outgassing grime on the...

I used Precizion Auto Film down by the World Arena. I do not know anything about PPF but I thought that they did a nice job and they were great to work with. I would use them again.

Nothing really to have done. I bought the wood dash from Tesla and the wood interior pieces from RPM Tesla. Installation was easy. I like how it came out too.

I just replaced my CrossClimate+ on my M3 with CrossClimate2. I got 26,000 miles out of the CrossClimate+ (40,000 mile warranty, got $140 back for mileage). For my MY, though, I went with Nokian Hakka H3's. The MY makes the trips to Summit County and Steamboat and I prefer the Hakkas for...

There is a long thread in the M3 forum where this is talked about around page 20. Factory OEM SiriusXM nearly working in Tesla 2022 Model 3 Why in the M3 forum? We do not have SXM in the M3 but it has been discovered that a MX SXM radio will work in the M3. The hard part is getting one's...

M3 and MY here with a Pixel 6 and Android 13. Wish that I had read all of this before updating. Adding my 2 cents here so that I follow the thread. I experienced this but did not put together what was going on. Thanks @JD M3 for the putting it together for me. I will keep an eye on the lock.

That wouldn't help me. I am often in areas without cellular data.

@PhilCaps, would you mind posting a picture of where you mounted the antenna in the MY?

I have been lurking here hoping to see a cookbook with a parts list and pictures. I'm more interested in installing in my 2020 MY which appears to be the easier use-case than in my 2018 M3. I checked with the Colorado Springs Service Center on part 1143711-00-C and received this reply: "Is...

Just another data point and so I am on the thread. My wife's 2020 MY has started doing this as well. WiFi does not connect. I only noticed this because the last two software updates were "pending" and did not download when the car was home. Rebooting the car solved the problem both times...

There are other threads about this issue. I have the same issue with my 2018 LR AWD. My solution is simple: (1) Turn off Sentry Mode (2) Turn on climate Yes, this means that I leave my car without Sentry Mode for 5 to 10 minutes as I wrap up whatever I am doing and walk to my car. I'm...

I have two MSM cars, a 2018 M3 and a 2020 MY. The color looks great when it is freshly washed. After 5 to 7 days it will start looking more like dirt than MSM. Wash it again and it looks new. That's my experience, anyway. I use ONR Wash & Wax. I have not had the cars detailed nor have I...

FWIW my 2018 LR M3 (AP 2.5 with radar) also "swings wide" on turns. Note that I am typically 5 mph over the speed limit so maybe if I were traveling slower it would take the turns better. If I see that a car is going to meet me at the turn's apex I will disengage AP and manually turn tighter...

No fix that I know of. I toggle off Sentry mode, turn on the A/C, wait for it to drop a few degrees (at least 5F), and then turn Sentry back on. I find that if Sentry is turned back on too soon it will still set off the alarm. Apparently one needs to wait until the A/C throttles back a little...

Here you go.

I have a 2018 M3 with black and a 2020 MY with white. I put a wood dash in the MY and added wood trim over the switches and center console. I think the white seats are stunning and wish that I had them in my M3. I do not notice any comfort difference between them. I have a couple marks on...

I am looking for a replacement end cap as well. Does anyone know if the Model 3 end caps are the same size as the Model Y end caps? I know that the cross bars are different but I do not know if the end caps are. There seems to be replacement options for the Model 3 roof rack end caps on eBay...

^^^^^ This. It all depends on your driving habits, of course. My wife and I have an M3 and an MY and a single Gen 3 Wall Charger. We used to have a 20amp Clipper Creek EVSE. Even at 20amps we never had an issue keeping both cars charged enough to do what we needed to do on any given day. On...

I have noticed this too. Annoying as hell but I like having the sensor enough that I am living with it. If sentry is on the car does not sleep and it works as expected. For me this is only an issue in my garage.

The Hakkas have performed great. I would buy them again. I am thinking about getting a set for my M3 as well (no mountain driving for it since we got the MY so I have put it off). There does not appear to be a significant range hit. Crossbars plus Yakima ski rack plus skis plus 80mph does...

2018 MSM LR AWD. I have a few dings on the hood and bumper. Nothing worse than any other car that I have owned. The paint still looks great to me (when I wash it - it takes about 3 days for MSM to start looking dirty. That's not the fault of the paint but of the color). I hand wash (ONR) so...

Widgets exist in both Android and iOS that do exactly this. They show status as well, like lock state and SoC. The widgets on Android do not update enough for me to be useful but I have them on a screen anyway.

My wife and I have two Teslas and two accounts between us. The app was updated some time ago to make it so that you no longer need to select what car you want to drive before driving it. It all works very well and I have not experienced any negatives associated with having two accounts.

Yes they work fine.

The Sky Box 16 did not fit on my MY. The spread of the cross bars was too far for the clamps. I took my cross bars off for summer and reinstalled them last weekend. When I reinstalled them I noticed some play in where the rear bars attached. As the sky box was very close to fitting when I...

Did anyone find a paint color that matches? I know a guy that just curbed a wheel :rolleyes:

Version 4 of the Tesla App fixes this. The app can now connect to multiple cars at the same time. I can now drive away in my M3 or MY without switching cars in the app. Hooray!

I have a one to two second delay when closing the hatch. There seems to be no delay when opening it. On close, I will wave my foot and then one to two seconds later it will beep and start to close. I am guessing that this is by design.
