I just had my 2023 Model Y windshield replaced with PGW glass, a 3rd party replacement by a 3rd party installer. $850 in the San Francisco Bay Area where other shops quoted an average of $1500 with a high of $2200 and a low of $1280. My installer had the glass in stock and was ready to install...

Well, my expectations have been exceeded. Today I brought my car into service (After a 3-week wait for an appointment), for an unrelated HVAC error message, but added my concern about the front motor whine to the appointment since it was going to be in their hands anyway. When I arrived they...

I've never been a member of a forum where this was more true, though the Mach-E forums are similar. It seems the primary sentiments here are either "Attack Tesla", "Defend Tesla", or "Mock people who disagree with you about Tesla". I really prefer forums that are primarily about requesting...

This obstacle is well within my field of view from the driver's seat, so the front camera should easily be able to see it. Tesla Vision says it's 32 inches away, in reality it's less than 8 inches, I would argue that's actually worse than nothing. I agree though that this should improve over...

Thanks for the replies. I'm looking at the carpet on the back of the rear seats, and inside the rear doors next to the seat, and wondering if I should buy something to cover them. I also noticed that a microfiber towel I left in the center console ended up full of black fibers that seem to...

I'm only at ~1000 miles on my MYLR and I have noticed faint screeching that seems to come from the front motor. To me it sounds almost like the whine that a power drill makes when the trigger is touched lightly. I find that it most happens when it's cold - I notice it more in the morning or at...

If you're referring to the tax credit changes in March, nobody will know when or how it will go into effect until the IRS "Notice of Proposed Rule-making" (NPRM) comes out, which is sometime in March. There are many car people assuming that "guidance released in March" means "changes will go...

For those who have had their Model Y for a few years or for a lot of miles, what parts, surfaces, or materials are worn or damaged, and is there anything you wish you'd have done early on to protect them? Similarly, if you invested in some type of protection that ended up being unhelpful, that...

This is a little bit like frantically changing lanes in a traffic jam, it's possible you will get ahead in a different lane, it's also possible you will get stuck for even longer, even if that lane looked like it was moving faster when you made the switch. The traffic jam everyone is sitting in...

I picked up my W/W at the Fremont factory 2 weeks ago today. Of the hundreds of Teslas on the lot, there were at least 6 other LR/w/w/19 Model Y's. All of these patterns that people think they're seeing on the forums are mostly just noise related to small, non-representative samples.

I just wanted to bump the Teslike order tracker and remind those who have taken delivery or received a VIN to update or add their info. Teslike Model Y Order Tracker

For those who had recent deliveries, update your info in the Teslike order tracking sheet if you are willing to share the information. The more people contribute, the more interesting trends can be gleaned from it. The link to the Google Form to submit or update your info is linked in Cell B1...

Mine updated every day between 6am and 7am pacific time, those were basically the "nothing's changed" updates. Then when there was a big shift (delayed by 1 week), it updated a little after 5pm. When my VIN was assigned it was 5:09pm, then the update to schedule delivery was at 9:01am. The VIN...

Sorry I should rephrase. I realize a lot of people are upset that the cars don't have ultrasonic sensors anymore, but that was true before they started giving new buyers this warning before delivery. I'm wondering if there are a lot of people who are expecting the USS functionality, and accusing...

This is interesting, my delivery was 6 days ago, as far as I know, nothing has changed with Tesla Vision since then, but there was no message or confirmation about it then. I definitely don't have ultrasonic sensors, and wasn't expecting them since that change started in October. Did Tesla get...
