Well, this car has only 47k miles on it and had the left upper replaced under warranty because it was a bit louder than just creaking after they sealed both uppers under warranty. It's not so much the $2k for the work. It's paying for an hour for diagnosing as well as labor to replace the parts...

Electrified Garage is up in Ocala. Hours away from me. I did call EV Garage in Miami. They were a little more expensive than Tesla. There's someone else I know in Broward who works on Teslas. I'd have him do it even though his price is close to Tesla's price.

In August 2001, I had just a creaking sound and brought it in for service. The ticket correction was to "reseal area around both front upper control arm ball joints with urethane." In October 2021, it started clunking and I brought it back in. This time they replaced the left upper control arm...

I believe the upper control arms had a TSB which is why it was done as Goodwill. Not so much on the other suspension parts.

One of my upper control arms was replaced under warranty back in October 2021 on my 2019 Model 3 LR I purchased in March 2019. I now have 47k miles on it and it's out of warranty. It started squeaking again a couple of months back after the warranty had already expired. Now they are telling me...

Just to update this thread, Delray Beach Service Center is now $305 per labor hour. Seriously, WTF? I won't be going back there for any out-of-warranty service anymore.

The invoice I have from Tesla, their labor rate is now $305 per hour. I'd say that's excessive. I'd also add my car was already in the Service Center for a repair on the passenger seat mat which is being repaired and paid for by Tesla via the "Supplemental Restraint System Limited Warranty."

Tesla is charging $305 per hour now for labor at the Service Center. Charging an hour for a diagnosis, and about another hour to replace the parts. $584 for both lateral links and another $584 for the lower control (compliance) arms. In total $1175 for parts and $630 in labor (1 for diagnosis...

I'm running into this same situation on my 2019 Model 3 LR with just 46,000 miles on it. But out of warranty since March when it hit the 4-year mark. They want $1900 including the fee to diagnose the noise and replace the lower control (compliance) arms and lower lateral links on both sides. A...

Curious did you ever resubscribe and what was the result. I'm thinking of ending my sub but curious if I have to go through the safety score thing again to get it back.

I opened up a service request through the app about my squeaky seat rail and both repeater cameras doing the described issue in my 2019 Model 3. I set an appointment up for the repair which was about 2 weeks out. Showed up on the day of the repair, they gave me an Enterprise rental car because...

I got the one from Hansshow recently that is the 2-way mount. They look sold out for now. It was $149.99. Hoping to be able to install it soon. Amazon.com

Just curious, but if you have the offer to upgrade to boost, wouldn't that mean you have the 980 rear and not the 990?

Tmobile is shutting down 3G in January. I think in July they are completely shutting down the Sprint network I understand.

I purchased a set of aluminum ones with foam backing. I haven't installed them yet but they seem pretty nice. I should get around to installing them soon. Paid $385 with the tax on eBay. I bought it from a US reseller so I wouldn't have to wait weeks to get it. The one on AliExpress looks the...

I'm curious here. Has anyone with HW 2.5 been able to get the subscription? I know you have to have HW3. But both in the app and on the website it tells me to subscribe I need HW3. Yet, I can't even successfully create a service request to even purchase HW3. I've been going back and forth with...

Just to be clear, when you say skirt are you talking about the whole outer bumper that is already painted is $130? By the way, we used a razor to cut out the whole area in one continuous piece. Some people used a hole saw to do it quicker but then you have nothing left but scraps. I was planning...

I just had the Stealth EcoHitch installed on my 2019 LR AWD. Yes, there was a hole necessary to be cut in under the bumper where it sticks out. Later models come with a cover that is removable instead. If yours doesn't have that removable cover, you'll need a whole cut wide enough to not only...

I've heard of people blowing it out this way. It's worth it to try it.

I replaced my filter and cleaned it with evaporator cleaner about 6 months ago. If you get a short torx driver (about 4") it isn't that tough to get in there and remove the screw. Only takes about 15 minutes. Get good HEPA filters to replace with.

I'm thinking about the metal ones too. I see they are available under $400 for both from many suppliers now. There's a local shop in South Fl looking to do a group buy and will include installation for $400. Also, as to the SC visit, they thought I needed both. Just the mid one is about $220...

So the Delray service center sent me a quote to replace the rear undercarriage cover. The price of the quote was $429.10. What are they smoking there? I'm halfway between Ft Lauderdale and Delray SC. I may just drive by the FTL SC tomorrow and see what they can do. For that quote, I can buy the...

I opened up an issue on the Tesla app. Driving home I heard a scratching sound. Center of the rear cover torn down like a flap about 12" wide. I have a 2019 M3. Made an appointment for next week. Waiting to hear back as to what they will do as to the cost of the replacement.

I'm in hot and sunny South Florida. I can put my hand on the roof glass on the hottest days and it barely gets warm. I never tinted the roof glass.

I had this come up on mine about 2 months ago. Made an appointment for service through the app. It would go off occasionally than usually come back on when I start driving. I saw someone mention to turn on the seat heater somewhere and noticed it would sometimes cause the indicator for the seat...

Will the autopark work to pull my car out of the garage if it's not a straight pull out? Because of my garage layout and where the washing machine is placed, when I pull into my garage that only has several inches already of space between the closed mirrors and the opening, I turn to the left...

I bought mine in March 2019 when AP/TACC was $3k. In April 2019 they started offering it with basic AP included and jumped up the price of the same build about $2k. For another $5k when I bought my car, I could have had FSD. But couldn't spring $8k for both options at the time. I'll likely...

I just got back home in my car. The battery was replaced under warranty. So no charge for the replacement. The Roadside Assistance that came on Saturday was a flatbed tow truck driver with instructions to take it to the local SC. He didn't have any battery to replace with. I wasn't there when...

Went to go out on a drive on Saturday, Got in my car and it was silent, the screen wouldn't come on. First I thought, try a reboot. Nothing. Then I noticed a bit of a motor whine and it seemed to be coming from the seat. The Windows rolled down really slowly. Ok, 12v is dead. Contacted roadside...

I'm in South Florida. Cold is never really a factor. We don't get below 70F too often.

I have a 2019 LR AWD. Started out at 310 at 100% when I first got it. Kept charging to either 80% or 90% overnight, every night for quite some time. About 279 at 90% for quite some time. Recently I've been keeping it lower as I was not using as much energy each week so set it at about 60%. It...

Did you people also notice there was a semi not far behind the Tesla? Had the Tesla braked hard to avoid the deer (or if the driver) it also could have been a very bad day for the Tesla owner. The semi does not have the same stopping distance and was upon the deer within 2 seconds according to...

Also, AP isn't frozen. With 12.5 I got additional visualizations like traffic cones with a 2.5 computer. Although, it did see trees on the side of the road as cones to which I thought was kind of funny.

Not a stop sign, but there is a highway in Virginia that has a drawbridge on it. I got stuck in a lot of traffic once by it.

Maybe look into a device called Dryer Buddy. You plug into the 240v dryer outlet. It splits it and only allows one of the two outlets to work at a time. They have an option for metering the outlets.

9 months now plugged in. Bought a v1 model from an S owner and use it in the garage fora 40 amp charge. I keep the v2 in the trunk in case I need it on the road. Biggest issue I'd think is plugging and unplugging from the outlet. Many store bought 50 amp outlets are designed well for multiple...

An update on the seat. After 2 previous SC visits and one mobile visit, I brought it in on Tuesday with another SC appointment. Service Writer told me to make an SC appointment so they could take a video of the issue. I'm thinking, great, another 30-minute drive to the SC so I can sit around...

I bought these from Abstract Ocean. I liked the look of it better than just a sticker. It's a raised button. I've had them for about 2 months now and really like them. Available in different colors. I went with black. It also comes with 2 for the emergency release. But I haven't put them in...

So the car wasn't completed after 2 days. The dash was replaced so no more bubble and they said they fixed the seat. Well, the dash is fixed but the driver seat still rocks. So I had to reach out to the SC rep I was working with and have to see perhaps about taking it back there and showing them...

I brought it in today. The good news, they gave me a Model S 85D as a loaner although it's a 2015 with 40k miles on it. But still in good condition. They said the dashboard won't take long to replace but they wanted to take video and check more on the seat issue. After it being checked in the SC...

I've got a Galaxy S9+. Finally unboxed the Echo I received a few days ago. I couldn't hear the Echo Auto after linking it with the Alexa app on my phone. Tried rebooting the Echo over and over. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the Echo over and over and the only time I could hear anything...

I use an app called Ampere. It lets me know on my Android phone how many amps is charging or discharging. Seems pretty accurate.

Yep, these questions keep coming up. A lot because people see the max range and think that they'll always get that. Somehow though people don't see issues with their ICE car that's rated to get 20 city/28 highway with a 13-gallon tank and wondering why they can't go 364 miles on every tank of...

Yes, mine is a 2019 (picked up in March) with about 6500 miles and spends a huge portion of its time out of the sun since it's garage parked at home and at work. The first bubble started to appear a couple of months back. Now there are smaller ones it seems to start near the original. It's going...

I've had my M3 AWD LR since March. A couple of months ago I noticed a bubble started in front of the passenger seat on top of the dashboard. I've got an appointment in a week at an SC to get the dashboard replaced. Anyone else had issues like this? Can the SC do this replacement in an afternoon?

Is cabin overheat protection on? That could be a source of the drain to keep the cabin from getting too hot and kicking on the A/C. I usually garage park my M3. But when I have to street park, I'll lose some overnight. Maybe up to 25 miles was the last time I street parked when the outside temp...

Just a quick note. The Gen 2 that comes with the M3 is limited to 32 Amps. If you purchase a Gen 1, it's limit is 40 Amps. I bought a Gen1 from someone and keep in plugged into my garage with the 50 amp outlet I had installed from my main. I keep the Gen II in the car for trips. I've never...

$150 for labor and $100 for parts to drill a hole in the irrigation box and add another outside box with a likely GFI 120v dual plug. Maybe that's the going rate in that area. Seems a bit high to me though. If you'll be there a long time, you'll save over time if you pay for the wiring to be...

I tried a cheap one just to see if it would work. It didn't. so don't bother with this one. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07L59X3HL/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
