    Wireless Charging w/ Iphone 12 pro max

    2022 Model Y AWD: iPhone 13 Pro Max with Apple leather case will not charge reliably - if I get it in exactly a precise spot it might start charging, but quits after a few minutes (possibly because if it moves even one millimeter while driving, it disconnects from the charger). Same exact...

    2023.26 push stopped?

    My 2022 Model Y AWD w/FSD is currently stuck at 2023.7.20 (w/ FSD Beta 11.4.4). I can't figure out a way (including rebooting the car) to get offered the 2023.26.x update. I am on the frequent updates setting in the car. I don't actually use the FSD Beta, so I don't care about its version...

    Does anyone have problems with their Y not unlocking when you approach. I have my ap open on Background, but car won’t open for several attempts

    I have this problem periodically (2020 Model 3, and then 2022 Model Y), and over 3 different models of iPhone. I am convinced that it is a bug in the iPhone’s Bluetooth LE implementation. When this happens, waking the iPhone’s screen instantly unlocks the car. For me it has come and gone with...

    Windshield Washer fluid hose disconnected.

    Exact same problem hit me a week ago on my 5/22 build MY. I added it to an upcoming service. I really hope it doesn’t just keep sliding off…

    New iPhone 13 Pro Max in a case does not work with the 2021 Model 3 wireless charging pad

    I have an iPhone 13 Pro max in the Apple Leather MagSafe case and it barely works in my 3/22 production Model Y. I.e. the wireless connection is so flaky that it only works about 10% of the time and them quickly stops.

    Model Y wireless phone charger doesn't work with iPhone 13 pro max

    I have an Apple iPhone 13 Pro Max with Apple’s leather case, and my phone essentially will not charge in my 3/22 production Model Y. If I really move the phone around slightly left and right on the pad, at some point it will start to charge, but after a minute to two it will stop. I think this...

    2022 Model Y - USB Data Ports - USB-A Glovebox Only

    I ordered and installed the TPARTS USB-C upgrade module for my Model Y 3/22 production version. As others had noted, I do see that the connectors are somewhat more inset than the version that came with the car. Anyway, I just installed it and now I learned the hard way that while it will power...

    Alert/Error message: UI_a111 Re-insert USB into glovebox for higher speed

    The latest firmware update for the car FINALLY seems to have fixed this problem. I can now use my Samsung SSD with no issues (as I had previously for years)

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    Wow, thanks. I thought it was just me. My drovers vent went up into my face, and it even seemed to not be targeting the correct temperature !

    Dashcam Unavailable Check USB

    It seems to be fixed after reinsert, but if I then try to view a video the entire sub window goes black - not even the UI displays.

    Alert/Error message: UI_a111 Re-insert USB into glovebox for higher speed

    I just tested sentry mode today with the Tesla USB Stick that came with the car an it worked fine. No error, and Iwas able to view the video from a Sentry event. Clearly the error and inability to view Sentry videos has to do with my use of the Samsung T5 SSD - a drive that worked perfectly on...

    Alert/Error message: UI_a111 Re-insert USB into glovebox for higher speed

    In addition to getting this error routinely with my Samsung T5 (and I never got this error previously for a few weeks in the MY, and never in my M3 with the same drive over the last two years), I am now finding that when I get into the car I sometimes and notified of a Sentry event, but when I...

    Alert/Error message: UI_a111 Re-insert USB into glovebox for higher speed

    I just started getting "UI_a111 Re-insert USB into glovebox for higher speed" in my one month old MY. Seems like it started happening after a recent software update. I am using a Samsung T5 SSD. Works fine although I do get the error. My cable is USB2 (not USB3) and I am wondering if this...

    Brand new Model Y won't accept Tesla Wall Connector?

    OK, first: thanks everyone for your help! As some had suggested, yes, my problem was due to a black plastic piece of the MY19 Model 3 charging port that had broken off and was stuck into my Tesla Wall Connector. This is what was preventing the Connector from inserting all the way into the...

    Brand new Model Y won't accept Tesla Wall Connector?

    Thanks for the advice, but.... no luck. I can line it up and then quickly shove it a ton of force as fast as I can (less than 1/10th of a second) and it still has a hard stop a little less than a centimeter from all-in. And, it is a really hard stop, like hitting a brick wall. I can't see...

    Brand new Model Y won't accept Tesla Wall Connector?

    I just received delivery today of a brand new Model Y (LR). I now find that I am unable to insert my Telsa Wall Connector into the car's charging port. When inserting the connector into the car's charging port, it gets most of the way in, I hear a click and see the port's indicator change...

    2021 Model 3 came with Tesla USB stick

    I have this same question. I have a Samsung USB SSD that I've been using for 1.5 years now, after partitioning as advised at the time (FAT32, two partitions, TESLACAM for dashcam and MEDIA for music). My car does NOT have a USB in the glovebox (Nov 2019 build). I tend to get file system...

    2020 Model 3. Much louder than BMW 335, Audi Q5, and even Lexus RX.

    Blog Model 3 Named a ‘Top Pick’ by Consumer Reports

    Nope. I love my Model 3, but the wind noise at speed is unacceptable. Poor window seals are the main reason. This has nothing to do with it not being an ICE car. The Model 3 is soooooo quiet at low speed, but the cabin noise on the highway is ridiculous - louder than any ICE car I own. Do...

    Sentry DashCam (TeslaCam) no longer working

    Thanks. I converted to GPT and created the partitions again, and formatted as FAT32 (I am using one partition for TeslaCam and one for Music). The GPT was the step I was missing as I was trying to get the drive working again. The drive is now recognized by the car and the DashCam feature now...

    Sentry DashCam (TeslaCam) no longer working

    I've repartitioned and reformatted my Samsung SSD multiple times now, using both RMprep and GUIformat, into FAT32, and neither gets the drive working again with DashCam. I even completely removed my hub and disconnected the phone charging cable, connecting ONLY the SSD to the car, and the car...

    Map Audio Directions Muted

    Had the same issue last week. I would turn the voice directions on, but they would stay off, and the icon would revert back to showing muted. Clearly a software bug.

    my mockup of carplay on model 3 display

    Tesla should offer CarPlay and Android Auto. End of story. Some people want to use it. You don’t have to use it if you don’t want to. These are luxury cars, and they should offer basic features like this. All this “Tesla has a custom interface and so can’t make this happen” is BS. I’ve had...

    Sentry DashCam (TeslaCam) no longer working

    A month ago I installed into my 2020 Model 3 a Samsung USB 2TB SSD, following the instructions on multiple FAQs and websites to partition the drive properly into two drives - one for media, and one for the TeslaCam directory. As required, the TeslaCam directory was formatted in FAT32...

    Summon over Bluetooth?

    Your car pic illustrates exactly my problem. I don’t design the stupid tiny garage parking spaces - I just have to park in them. NO REASON that I should not be able to move the car forward or back from short range over Bluetooth to address this problem.

    Summon over Bluetooth?

    All I want to do is back the car up straight out of the parking space. But I cannot without cell reception which makes no sense.

    Wait.. There is no garage door opener in Model 3?

    Agree it is totally rediculous. Only good news is that the high price includes installation, and they can do it through Mobile Service

    Summon over Bluetooth?

    OK, now I am finding that my Tesla iPhone app won’t even connect to the car while in this garage. Since the car gets no cell reception while in this underground garage, there is no communication, so I cannot Summon, or do anything else. So, over Bluetooth, the car will unlock, and the app will...

    Summon over Bluetooth?

    I tried to use Summon in my workday parking garage, and could not get the car to respond. This is an underground garage with NO cell reception - a total dead zone. I then tried Summon at home (outside with clear cell reception and also connected to local WiFi) and it worked fine. Can Summon...

    Microphone and voice recognition not working after install of 2019.40.50.1

    I agree that this is really flaky. My assumption is that it is due to delays in either cell data service or on the server end. Really frustrating when it happens - which is a lot.

    No Frunk Bag Hooks

    Totally agree that the frequent software updates are what sets this car apart from other manufacturers. It is, literally, the reason I bought a Model 3. However, this does not excuse the removal of parts that cost pennies as the model years move on (frunk hooks, door pocket lights, etc)

    2020 Model 3 and differences from 2019

    Nope. My E39 5-series BMW was much quieter, and even my E90 3-series was quieter wrt wind noise despite having louder tires.. The Model 3 is definitely as step down when it comes to wind noise on the freeway. Other cars were also quieter for wind noise (Honda Odyssey, VW Passat, etc.) I may...

    Car and Driver suffers Model 3 failure on 12/25, but car told them about it remotely

    Thanks for the heads-up. I have had my Model 3 LR AWD for about 4 weeks now, and no issues. EXCEPT there are sometimes strange noises coming from somewhere at the front of the car while driving at highway speed. Some kind of rattle or something loose. Assuming that this rattle will only get...
