    Solar Charging Behavior

    But it still limits to 3.3 kW if my home needs exceed the current solar capacity.

    Solar Charging Behavior

    When my PW charges from solar during the day some of the time the power is split between the PW and home when in fact I prefer to completely charge up the PW before sending power to home or grid. Is there any setting to force this behavior to always charge the PW from solar to it’s reserve...

    Tire Pressure Monitoring System Fault

    Has anyone seen this error? It popped up today on the highway out of the blue and has not gone away after 3 subsequent drives. I have not changed any tires or wheels with only 1,400 miles and have been monitoring the pressure which has always been normal. I looked up the reset instruction and it...

    Experiences going from a 3 to a Y? Considering trading my 3

    We sold our Model 3 AWD in January and took delivery of our LR AWD MY end of May. We switched mostly for the ease of entry/exit and the easy larger rear access. We found the ride quality and handling to be comparable plus the additional space and easy access has been worth the switch for us.

    Paint protection film worth the money??

    I'm getting a PPF full wrap next week in Greenville, SC with Suntek Ultra on my white model Y for $3200 which is a phenomenal price based on other postings. I did a partial on my model 3 but decided to do a full since I plan to keep the Y much longer. The one thing I liked about the Suntek...

    Does your trunk make a loud thump sound before opening?

    Mine makes a loud thunk sound when closing. Not sure it's normal but not the case in my Outback when the hatch closes. I don't recall if it is especially loud when opening.

    Model Y Stock Rear Window Tint

    We tinted our model 3 with ceramic 60 on the windshield and 30 on all the windows and roof. It made a big difference in keeping the car cooler. Before the tint on a sunny day the heat from the roof was very noticeable when putting your hand close to the glass but after the tint was applied there...

    Does MY have glossy window and door switches for black interior?

    My model 3 had glossy window and door switches just like the center console that I wrapped since they were prone to scratching just like the center console. Does the model Y have the same glossy black plastic on the door switches? I've seen lots of pictures and videos of the console but none of...

    Paint Protection Film (PPF) & Ceramic Coating

    The highest number of votes went to PPF plus Ceramic Coating. I'm wondering if most were doing full body PPF or partial with ceramic and what extra value ceramic gives if if is used to cover PPF?
