I just got a new 2023 Model Y with Pirelli tires, 19" Gemini wheels and the premium interior. It came with the tires inflated to 37 which is much lower than the spec. I am astounded by how quiet it is on the highway compared with my older 2020 Y. Will running the tires at low pressure like...

This doesn’t have the magic docks. Are they still rare-to-nonexistent?

2022.12.15 update. Model S 75D. I've had the problem, I can't engage autosteer when I'm in Chelmsford, MA. The grey steering wheel is off most of the time but flickers occasionally. But when I cross the town line, voila, it works just like it always did. The road is the same, the fog lines...

The promo code in the email has 1 too many digits to fit into the field on the order form. The order form allows 4 groups of 5 digits for a total of 20 but the code in my email has 21 digits

Not working for me. I tried it on March 3 and it didn't work. I tried it again on March 6 and it still doesn't work.

Three years ago I was faced with the same question. I decided to use the mobile connector which comes with the car but it turned out to be unreliable. It would, frequently, stop charging. But, that was 3 years ago and Tesla may have improved the reliability of the mobile connector since then.

So mine is a collector's item. I'd be glad to sell it to the highest bidder ;) Originally, when I got the car, I had a 14-50 outlet installed because I was planning to just use the mobile connector. Unfortunately that turned out to be slow and unreliable so when the plug in wall charger...

What is a pigtail? Is it the 2' long cable from the wall connector to the 14-50 outlet?

I have a Tesla wall charger Gen 2 (I think) which plugs into a 14-50 50amp 240v socket. Lately, it has been charging very slowly. It starts out at 40amps, as expected, but within a half hour, it slows down and eventually gets down to 15amps. It behaves the same way for both of my Teslas and...

Thanks

I got the download but never got the email. Would anyone be willing to post the email?

My old S 75D got it. I’m not on Teslafi

Einstein said you can’t tell the difference between gravity and acceleration , if you are in a box with no windows. In fact, your car has GPS and could, in principle, know exactly what is going on. Or, if it has a tilt sensor it would know it is going downhill and could calculate exactly how...

Yes, of course that was a poor choice of words on my part. I meant “testing privileges”, not “FSD privileges”. We are all frustrated that the FSD we paid for does not exist and very likely never will

Let me go against the trend and defend the safety score. Tesla needs its beta testers to be very alert and careful to avoid crashes. If you get 100 on the safety score, that is evidence that you are able and willing to be very alert and careful. That makes you a good candidate. If you stop...
