    Robotic arm suction cup impressions on back glass

    Whenever I wash or clean my car, I see some marks which I believe are robotic arm suction cups used to lift and place the glass. Any idea how to remove these?

    Do you normally use "CHILL" mode or "NORMAL" mode with your model Y?

    Is it just me or does anyone find it weird that Tesla removes normal mode after getting Acceleration Boost? Its a software setting, why couldn’t they keep Normal and just add Sport as the third option?

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    Is it normal for the battery range goes down to almost 2/3 when the temperatures are about 45F? I preconditioned the battery before leaving home.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    Thanks for the explanation, that makes sense now but still something very different to what I heard about supercharger prices which are usually charged per Kw

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    The next charger I stopped is even more outrageous at first 4 minutes itself at $0.68/m+ tax. I am not understanding what is happening.

    Discrepancy in charge prices

    On my first long trip in my new MY LR. Range is only 2/3 in 48F but the main issue is discrepancy in charge prices between what shows on navigation and what I got charged. Anyone have any clue about this?

    Tesla App not recognizing vehicle charging data

    Nothing is fixing this for me, even the 3 days back charging session one or the app restart is fixing it

    Did I miss something regarding stop mode changes?

    strange that they didn’t remove it from the manual yet

    Did I miss something regarding stop mode changes?

    I remember seeing something about stopping mode in my demo drive but it is missing in my 24 MY LR. I was in park mode and unable to find this option even though it is in the manual. Did I miss any news about this?

    Windshield wiper controls are the worst about a Tesla

    I think it has to do with the 2018 M3 having the actual rain sensors instead of latest model using vision to figure out rain

    Windshield wiper controls are the worst about a Tesla

    I had first irritating encounter with this. They started going on with not a single drop of rain but after an hour with downpour, they refused to start in auto and I had to manually turn it on. When they were going on before rain, I turned it off and somehow it kept changing to auto. Is there a...

    Tesla App not recognizing vehicle charging data

    I have Tesla Solar, Model Y and Wall Connector all connected in the app, when I charge the vehicle overnight, I don’t understand why Tesla app is showing it as energy used by home instead of the Model Y. Anyone else see this not correctly being recognized?

    Tesla Newbie - PPF Necessary?

    I debated on this a lot and settled for partial hood, fenders and full bumper as I felt they are most prone for road debris and needed for Chicago weather. Getting it from a good shop for $650.

    Occasional depress accelerator pedal message

    Searched and found it but when I get into the service mode, don’t see this error anywhere. In fact, no history of warnings before today’s date. Strange.

    Occasional depress accelerator pedal message

    I am worried it may not showup when I am there and they will not do anything. Both the instances this happened when I have people waiting behind me, so no time to capture a pic but will try and see if I can next time. Any place where I can see all the previous warnings ?

    Occasional depress accelerator pedal message

    Got it about a week ago, whenever I wait in a school line or other places in park mode and change to drive, I got error messages saying to depress accelerator pedal to shift when there is nothing to do. I had to shift to P and press pedals couple of times before it could shift to D. Any...

    Credits: Enticing us to get Acceleration Boost?

    Ya, after so much debating, I understand AB is like a fun thing to enjoy or showoff to your friends occasionally, but from a cost to points ration perspective I felt that it is the most value at the moment.

    Credits: Enticing us to get Acceleration Boost?

    Surprising no one is stalking about purchasing supercharger miles with it. Are they not at all worth it?

    Credits: Enticing us to get Acceleration Boost?

    Yes, I signed up for it yesterday to see rates and they made me add CC for auto topup but mentioned they will only add the first funds at first use, so just keeping it for now but if I am not getting the CCS adapter, looks like it is going to be waste and might delete it. But the wondering...

    Credits: Enticing us to get Acceleration Boost?

    Thanks. That's what I realized when I registered with Electrify America account and saw that their rates are almost 1.5 times more than Tesla's but not sure if there will be other places of low cost or free chargers using CCS ports (just got my first EV this weekend, so still learning all...

    Anyone thinks CCS adapter redemption will be a good value and comes in handy during road trips?

    Messed up delivery by Tesla - AGAIN

    I don’t know if you ever used wire transfers, they are instant and very hard to stop them. Very common and fast way of transfers used in home purchases. Even if what you say is true remotely, two Tesla customer support executives confirmed on phone that they accept wire transfer tracking and one...

    Pickup team refused to do anything about this and just told irritatedly to reschedule the pickup and d al with finance team and doubt anything will change.

    Following, very interested to know this too as I have 17500 points and seeing whats the best way to spend these. Wall connector has better value but I am getting it along with the installation which my electricity provider is covering.

    After messing up my Tesla Solar delivery and installation in 2022 and delaying it for almost 6 months, Tesla is yet again doing it for me. Tomorrow morning is the delivery, my CU did wire transfer this morning and gave me a tracking number, I sent the tracking number to Tesla immediately. At...

    Sales tax calculated based on Tesla center location instead of my registration address

    I sent a message 4 days ago and today received a response that they are still looking into it and might have to delay my delivery tomorrow and for sure will release the VIN and put me in some sort of queue and make me run around for the price adjustments. No one else from Illinois faced this?

    Lienholder address on MVPA

    I got my MVPA in the app with the name of the credit union I am getting loan from but it only shows the name and not their address. My credit union is insisting that they need "copy of the Purchase Agreement or a copy of the Application for Title listing us as the lien holder" without which they...

    Delay inventory order delivery

    This is what I want to avoid exactly and in my solar project experience, Tesla advisors have not been very friendly or accommodating which is what worries me even to ask them to delay

    Steering on 2024 Model Y LR Feels Unusually Tight

    when I test drove it on Saturday, I felt the same compared to my Tiguan and thought maybe I need to adjust the steering settings but didn't get enough time. Could this be a common thing?
