    Thank you for that feedback

    RPM Tesla Model Y Skid Plates

    Anyone have any experience with RPM Tesla's Model Y Skidplates? They are two aluminum skid plates, front and back, that replace the OEM plastic skid plates. RPM claims they reduce ground noise by 3 to 5 db, and of course would offer better protection. Any feedback on the noise reduction...

    New "Service" Center San Juan Capistrano

    Is it still open? The listing on Google states "temporarily closed", and they do not answer their phone.

    My Model 3 Died - Full Shutdown

    Sounds like 12V battery to me. Roadside was the same unhelpfullness to me. But if you know someone in Mobile Support, then they will come out and install a new one in literally 5 minutes. Do NOT tow it to the Service Center. This is an easy fix.

    Why is GPS Lady Yelling at Me?

    for the "other" loud lady I use earlpugs, or a good set of noise-cancellation headphones.

    To remove ppf or not to remove

    LOL..I had a chuckle with my daughter last night about something similar. I was complaining to her that the charge port on my M3 doesn't work, and so I need to wait two weeks for Tesla mobile service to come to my house and fix it. She rolled her eyes and said, "Dad, that's such a first world...

    Seeking recommendations for window tint shops in Orange County area

    Congrats on your new M3! I've been driving my M3 for two years now, live in OC, and never felt the need for glass tint. OEM windows are dark enough, and the Tesla climate control is probably the most efficient I've seen. I just use a good windshield shade for when I park outside. My advice...

    FSD Upgrade Email

    What does the $3,000 upgrade to Full Self-Driving include? Is there a hardware upgrade involved? I received the same email and already own EAP including NOA and Summon. The email is very confusing and does not describe any new functions that we already have.

    Time for new tires on my dual motor

    I had the Pirelli P Zero Nero's - not sure if they're the same All Season Plus you refer to above. Performance and price were excellent, however they are very soft and I was only able to drive 18K on them before I had to replace them with the Michelin Primacy MXV4's

    M3 EAP slowing down question.

    This "EAP Slow Down" happens to me on my daily commute on the I-5 in SoCal. This is different from "Phantom Braking," which I also experience on occasion. During some of the situations described above, the EAP max speed actually re-sets to a much lower speed on its own. In order to fix it I...

    Thinking of getting a small water softener to decrease spotting.

    LOL...If you're that concerned about what hard water does to your car, ever think about what it does to your body and home? I had a whole-house water softener system installed several months ago and my life has never been the same. Drinking water tastes much better, skin feels much softer, no...

    What’s the one thing you like the least about your Model 3?

    No Siruis XM satellite radio. I'd like to continue to listen to live MLB game broadcasts and other sports broadcasts. Slacker has zero content for this, and connectivity is just so spotty....

    PSA: CAREFUL--Autopilot sudden braking

    Are there any updates on a fix for the phantom braking issue? It's been a couple of months since the last comments on this thread, and I am now on version 2019.16.2, but I am still experiencing errors on a daily basis.
