If you are not excited to buy a car (at this price point) then you shouldnt be buying it. Just about any tesla is a "want" but in this price class, if you are hesitant now (and you are, regardless of what you are intending, it looks like you are wanting people to convince you to buy the car)...

Neither did I, for my wifes X3, and believe it or not my local BMW service advisor (who I got to know really well actually) told me, "You are using this car as a grocery getter. You dont drive it hard at all, and all you do with it is drive it around town. It has low mileage, but you are...

If you go to a BMW board (and I used to own only BMWs, for roughly 18 years, before I got my model 3 in 2018), the most prevalent thing you will read on a BMW board is "dont own one outside of warranty" (same as people tend to say about every other high end vehicle thats not a collector item)...

Thats actually where it goes. You just want a separate thread (with a clickbait title) for "more visibility to my own complaint", or something. In any case, since I missed it when you originally posted it I will leave it here, but I am not leaving the thread title as you posted it. I changed...

Enjoy the ride, and pre congratulations! For most people (not all, but a very large percentage), once they get the car in hand, all of this stuff tends to just fade away.

Its not like I havent seen that. I mentioned, in that same quote: Perhaps, its just that a lot of people get all spun up wondering why the dates move, complaining about them moving, planning around getting a car based on the EDD date they got, wondering why someone else got a sooner date even...

Yeah it does go fairly quick once you get a vin. Its before that, regarding anything a person sees in their account on "ESTIMATED delivery date". None of that matters, before the vin.

Then you probably want to look through the insurance subforum: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/forums/insurance.367/

Why is anyone paying any attention at all to EDD dates (other than the fact that in waiting room threads, thats what people like to do, talk about moving EDD dates? Didnt anyone see what I mentioned earlier in this thread? For reference, here it is again, regarding the ordering process:

You said you "saw on this forum where people experience the same issue". You should be posting it where you saw that. I dont know where you saw people with the same issue.

Where is "Queenstown"? Costs for body work vary wildly from state to state in the USA, and internationally there is no sense in comparing them at all (between US and anyplace else).

Please post this question in one of the threads where you:

The last thing they said ( that the kit for the retrofit comes with the adapter) is correct, and you will need to return that adapter you purchased separately. as @MP3Mike said: and as @Rocky_H said: Where they said "the information I gave you is 100% accurate", that part I would challenge...

None of these fake badge pics are ever going to top the BMW donkey one, at least to me:

How old was your gen 3 wall connector? I know the first couple of revisions seemed to have lots of overheating issues. One of our active members did a write up on the overheating, and I believe they found similar results as you did...

I realize the other 2 posters above me answered your question, but you quoted me, and the quote you took of my post already has my answer to the question you asked me while quoting me. As I said in my quote (that you quoted): So my answer to your question, just to be clear is, "Yes that is...

I wonder if somewhere on the Tesla back end it says your car is compatible. Be interesting to see what happens then. IF thats the case, I would then show them it wasnt and ask them to provide it since "my car is supposed to be enabled for it already".

I dont think it would work, although I am not an expert at this stuff. Perhaps read through this thread? https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/tesla-will-not-sell-you-vehicle-without-proof-of-residence-in-state-where-car-is-located.309898/

Omg this is @#$!@$ funny as @#$!@$$@ 🤣🤣🤣 I seriously dont have ANY of those home speakers, not because "wiretap" but because "hell naw, I aint putting up some electronic device that is listening to me all the @!#$!@ time, even though I aint doin nothin".

I think it would be easier for you to see what I said when I was in the middle of it. You can search this thread for posts by me: https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/this-is-the-official-retrofit-of-model-3-ccs-been-announced.321261/page-4#post-8243994 There are 3 posts by me in that...

No, I actually did it via the service request, the first time the person told me "not available for model 3" I said "I believe it is, here is the part number for my car (obtained from a TMC thread), they replied "not available for model 3". i said ok, I will close the request then, and closed...

The contradictions in the data dont really matter in demo, which is just ment to be visible representation of stuff. Thats why I asked, and thats why it does matter. If it was supposed to be a demo of your home, its perfectly valid to be upset with the data. if its a generic demo, it really isnt.

They told me that too, and that was after multiple people here got it. I ended up canceling the request, and re submitting it, and the second person ended up putting it through for me. I posted about it here somewhere, but in a nutshell, this is sort of "typical tesla" heh...

You make a bluetooth connection with that device to the car, then change music source from whatever it is now, to bluetooth.

Autopark is a feature of EAP or FSD, however EAP is only available to purchase "sometimes" and you cant subscribe to it. People have "just" EAP, so its more accurate to say that autopark requires either EAP or FSD, but in the context that was being talked about, it was "its not available with...

Is there something in there that says its a demo of your specific home? If not, the graph arcs and data dont mean anything (I dont have clipping on my system so I have perfect hill graphs like you say you never have).

Model 3s have never, ever been "made to order" (ever). They have always been made in batches, with the car built matched to a specific order once that configuration was being built. Yes, it did used to take "months" sometimes to get an order, but even then those cars were not built to order...

No problem, this type of thing happens. Good luck with sale, and looking forward to your thoughts on the quicksilver once you get it in hand.

There isnt much need to "open a new discussion" on anything at all, to do with "the battery" here. There are probably more than 100 separate threads, some of them with thousands of posts, on the topic of "the battery" and how you care for it. Specifically for model 3s, Here is one such thread...

Unless it was an identified feature of the car, the purchaser is not entitled to it for free. FWIW, Tesla does have a track record of delivering free on things that were mentioned as part of a vehicle but not available (except for FSD, I am not talking about that, and please no one turn the...

Probably because its going to depend directly on your SPECIFIC LOCAL electricity rates, whether they are tier based and go up when you use more energy or based on a time of use plan, how much energy your SPECIFIC house uses (as even 2 tract homes in the same neighborhood with exact same...

If you want to play media via USB, you will need to put a USB hub in the port on the glove compartment and connect to USB devices to it (or format the existing device into 2 partitions). That is the only data port in the car for USB data.

Should I ping the site owners who manage the marketplace subforums and have them remove the listing you have for a 23MYP? https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/2023-tesla-myp-w-many-accessories.326701/

You dont really need the long range version of either one of the vehicles if you are only driving locally, but with that said, I would recommend a model Y simply because you are coming out of an SUV style seating position. If you prefer that, you should stick with it, imo.

This is basically the full and complete answer. There isnt any place to get a decent compatible battery cheaper than Tesla. There are compatible ones but they are more than the Tesla one. @Fourdoor Try going into the Tesla app, under Service--Request Service--Upgrades and accessories--Other...

@Thomas Rinaldi TMC has rules that state we dont allow posts that are personal insults. We do allow complaints (all one has to do is search this forum, thats what people loved to do online these days), but we dont allow personal attacks / insults. This isnt reddit.

Perhaps either your debt to income ratio, or your credit history or lack thereof. Look into either of those.

This isnt a moderation note, but I find this only slightly less offensive than people saying stuff like " all (insert political stance X) people do Y" or "all (insert people race here) people do Z, or all "(insert religion here) people do XXX" Lumping a bunch of people together because they...

1. the person you are replying to, is NOT the OP of this thread. The OP is the one who was asking about the car, so should be where the question was directed. They havent been on TMC since march 12th though, so no idea if you would get an answer. 2. The OP posted this question on January...

Ok. I changed the thread title then.

Do you not have insurance? This is the result of a collision (just like your other repair costs you talk about). The cost is "your insurance deductible", as it relates to the car being repaired. There isnt paragraph spacing in your post so its hard to read for me, but to me, all I am reading...

"Advanced" setting has not been proven to do anything at all. Do not expect it to do anything.

In another thread, the OP said:

I didnt read the article. Does this mean that the thread title of "so much wrong in this WSJ article" is in fact wrong?

That cost is just the adapter, at least it was when I purchased "just the adapter" for my wifes car which is a 2022 model Y that was already ccs capable.

I wonder if its supposed to be free for your car because of its age or something? No idea on why you cant order it either through the shop or via service.

Yeah, it was $350 for the retrofit, including the CCS adapter. Note that this is for my 2018 model 3 performance though. I already had purchased a CCS adapter for my wifes model Y so I didnt really need another one, but they wont currently let you get the retrofit without the adapter. You can...

Many people who did the retrofit didnt order the adapter itself through the tesla shop, we put in a service request for the retrofit in the Tesla app. I am not sure what the cutoff is for people who need to get it via a service request vs purchasing the adapter, but try it with the service...

The person you are asking ( the OP ) has not been on TMC for almost 3 years, so you are not likely to get a response from them.

There is no "custom install" for Tesla software / firmware. You can go into the service menu and trigger a download, and it will be the same version that is on your car right now. There is zero way to make your car download any specific new software version. Its likely one of the most...
