    Is it safe to take a road trip with the rear drive disabled?

    I figured I would update everyone. We ended up having it towed to a service center about 2.5 hours away. They replaced the entire rear drive in just over a day and we were on our way. They also replaced an O-ring on the Trunk Strut, not sure why it was needed or if this is a pre-emptive thing on...

    Is it safe to take a road trip with the rear drive disabled?

    We recently drove on vacation with our 2022 LR M3. We are just under 10k miles on the odometer. It's been driving fine up until this morning, we went to pull out and the car was freaking out showing rear drive motor disabled as soon as we put it into drive. There was also one or two large...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    The estimate is just that, an estimate. It is based on your driving habits, environment, etc. Don't sweat it. Some days my LR (I know it's not an LFP) gets 354, some days it's 360's.

    Iphone messages on touchscreen

    Maybe this is not a functionality but I thought I'd ask anyways. I have all my messages set to sync and I receive the notifications when a message is delivered. The question I have is the display will only show messages that the phone has sent/received after the car has turned on. Is there not...

    Do app controls work when premium connectivity expires?

    Perfect, that is just what I was looking for. Thank you!

    Do app controls work when premium connectivity expires?

    Thank you. Do you know how the app talks to the car then? And those controls will continue to work when the car is not hooked up to wifi/LTE? That is mostly what is driving my question. When my car is parked at the lot at work (several hundred feet from our office building), will I still have...

    Do app controls work when premium connectivity expires?

    I just picked up my M3 yesterday and I am loving it so far. It is a real thrill to drive. I was curious about the app controls for climate control, locks, etc. When my premium connectivity subscription expires, will those still work if I am further away from the car than Bluetooth range? Or...

    Question about insurance for delivery

    I am scheduled to take delivery of my M3 on the 29th of January. I am located in North Carolina. My auto policy is set to expire on the 31st, so I have two different ID cards (one for the old, and one for the new policy). Tesla is telling me that because the policy numbers change when it expires...

    Nema adapter kits

    For the mobile charger I see that tesla offers a NEMA adapter kit that includes 7 adapters. EVSE also offers a kit that has 10 of them included (for a good bit more money). Have you found a need that the extra adapters and price is worth it? Or will I be pretty much covered with the tesla kit...

    Gen 2 Wall Connector DOA - Suggestions?

    If it was purchased off of eBay why not just return it?

    Mobile connector question

    Thank you! I figured but wanted to make sure I didn't end up with duplicates/wasting money. I am taking delivery next Saturday so hoping to be prepared. I have an existing 240V outlet I can run an extension cord from for the time being until I get a home charger installed.

    Mobile connector question

    This is a stupid question but I wanted to confirm. For me to use the mobile connector on a 30A or 50A 240V outlet, I will have to buy an adapter correct? It looks like the adapter included goes from a standard 110V outlet to a unique connector on the mobile charger? There is nothing included...

    Tesla Second Row Pet Liner is plush!

    Thank you! Glad I asked before committing! From the measurements online it did look like that one would be the better fit

    Tesla Second Row Pet Liner is plush!

    You don't feel the XL is too big for the M3? I am about to pull the trigger on ordering and saw one of the reviews recommended the standard size for the M3, so curious how your XL fits.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    This is the one I was looking at. It is stickied on the forum somewhere https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1YeLtMxFt9Lh8mndZhjOqrzFfWQ_r5T9LS-l3gQzPXCk/edit#gid=0

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Can you show me where that is? I looked at the pinned tracker/spreadsheet and didn't see anything specific around the new chips.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Me neither, I thought I might be, but it'll be a wash in 5/10 years. Only super hardcore tesla fans will even know the small difference between the 2022 models. Definitely not worth having to reorder (at a $1000 increase), lose the $250 deposit, and wait another 3+ months.

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    What is your VIN? I have a 152XXX vin, just got off with my local service center and they confirmed it is a lead acid battery (which I'll also assume is the older intel chip). Not a big enough deal for me to cancel order/reorder, oh well! I have your same config, Blue/White/18", with EDD Jan...

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    Is there a way to see when exactly the VIN was assigned? I believe it was within the last week or so. The car is being delivered to Raleigh NC. The only other thing I see in the app is "we're building your car"

    Model 3 - LR AWD Waiting Room

    I am expecting delivery of a LR later this month (EDD is Jan 27-29th). Vin is 152XXX. Is this an older VIN? I am seeing some posts with VINs in the 155 range. OD was sometime in October with a hold that released late december.

    Glass on roof fracturing in summer - no impact

    So just to be clear, you argued with tesla that this was a defect, lost that argument, and are now arguing with your insurance that it wasn't a defect but was in fact an impact?

    Aftermarket accessories list

    I did a bit of searching and was not able to come up with a thread so I apologize in advance if this is a repost. I am set to take delivery of a new M3LR later this month. I have been thinking of a "wishlist" for useful things I'd like to add to the car. I am not talking...

    Does anyone have experience with the official Tesla Pet Liner and white seats?

    This is a great question. I am following as I am set to take delivery of a white interior M3 and will need some form of a pet liner for the back. I do also plan on getting windows tinted and have heard that the tesla liner clips can damage the tint?

    Discussion: Updated Range and 0-60 times for Model 3 and Y

    I initially had a P on order, but switched to a LR when the discussion of tax credits was revived. Current EDD is Nov 19- Dec 15, but I expect that to probably push out a bit. If it doesn't I will put it on hold until there is a final decision made on the tax credits. For me, the difference of...

    Help decide between used M3P and new LR

    It is a private party sale, and to be honest seems priced well/under market value. I do see your point about the warranty, and from what I've read so far AP does about everything I would ever use FSD for (longer highway drives) so I don't see a ton of value added by that.

    Help decide between used M3P and new LR

    I am torn between two options I have currently. I did put in a preorder for a M3 LR in the spec I want (blue/white, 18") with estimated Delivery sometime in late December, but I expect that to push back based on what I am seeing form others who have preordered. A 2019 M3P came up that is close...

    WTB: 2019-2021 M3 LR/Performance

    I am located in NC and looking at finally getting a tesla after recently moving from CA. My preference is a 2020/21 M3 LR with FSD, but I would also consider an older performance model as well as a M3 without FSD. I just missed out locally on a 2021 M3 w/ FSD and white interior, 30k miles for...

    WTB: Model 3, <= 40k

    Putting up a want to buy post before biting the bullet on a new one. Looking at picking up a model three at or under 40k. Not too picky on color, but I would say black is probably lowest preference, and white interior preferred. I am in Los Angeles, so somewhere around LA is preferred (there...

    Values on used model 3s?

    Is there a good way to check on that? I think the seller added it on after the fact, so it is not on the original window sticker.

    Values on used model 3s?

    Hey Everyone, Looking in the market now for a used model 3. Prices seem to be all over the place. Is there a good way to check for sold values on cars? One recently popped up not too far from me that is a 2018 RWD LR with FSD for 45k with 20kish miles. Does this seem like a good deal for one...
