Finally found some time to put the car on summer wheels and give it a quick rinse. Needs a more intense wash and maybe a detail soon, but until then that’s gotta do.

Agreed, but I wasn’t stating otherwise. The measures need to be correct, but they don’t come from a category the car applied. It simply doesn’t matter, if the cars are pickups or box trucks to the car, as long as it sees their dimensions and the relative distances and speeds those specific cars...

The car determines everything it "sees" by applying an algorithm to it. Depending on the input, the output of that algorithm can vary. Different lighting, slight reflections here and there, maybe something in the background that it mixes up with a foreground object, those are all valid reasons...

Made in Berlin, i'd guess. These tether points are unique to the cars built there.

https://www.willtheyfit.com/ play around there a little, do some measuring on the car and you'll figure out if you can make it work or not. Like @BC_LR said, be aware of the load rating of the wheels, you don't want any of your cars parts to fail under load while going highway speeds...

No first hand experience with buying a former rental, But with the cars itself, since I used to work in a SeC back in Germany. Generally spoken, I'd steer clear from it unless you really really need to have the lowest price possible. Most renters are unexperienced with EVs and Tesla in...

True, apparently a leased car is not the same everywhere in the world. N some countries it’s more like a rental, some others refer to a loan (where the bank technically only gives you the money and you buy it yourself) as a lease.

The car doesn’t go to sleep when sentry is on, this has nothing to do with the hazards being on or not.

It’s not that they don’t want your money. You are not the owner of the car, therefore you have no rights to buy upgrades. As simple as that. Go and ask your lease company if they buy it for you. Edit: what if you give a family member driver access to the car, should he be allowed to buy...

That’s exactly what’s the reason for this.

there are no other lift points then the 4 official ones. You can buy special jack stands that can be lifted with the car and then have legs attached to them to remove the jack.

Spoiler alert: they won’t. Mine was showing wear around 6-7k km, did the same, got told these are a non-warranty. Ended up buying new ones from the shop.

No, and I wouldn’t try either. Use proper adapter plates or stick with 5x114.3.
