    Tesla Extended Warranty - Worth it?

    I have XCare (72K miles on my 20 MY) and while I technically have not used them, I called them once and the man who answered at XCare was a former Tesla service center guy who confidently and clearly helped me solve my problem (GPS had lost the awareness of my car’s location despite several...

    Wiper Blade Replacement Tesla Model Y

    May 2020 LR MY with 72K miles and my blades are fine. Kinda bizarre, actually.

    FSD v12.x (end to end AI)

    I have FSD, and paid a total of $6000 for it — $4000 for EAP a couple of years ago and $2000 a few days ago when the upgrade price was announced. Even though FSD, viewed objectively, drives like an impulsive 16 year-old showing off for friends (endlessly changing lanes for no real reason...

    Enhanced autopilot worth $6k seems to be useless as summon feature is blocked off

    I added the speed boost and EAP to my 20 MY years ago. I enjoy the EAP, but only use the speed boost on rare occasions (I’m too chill, I guess)… I have to admit I am shocked by how timid, easily confused and halting FSD is. You’d think the engineering team was managed by a leader who believed...

    Do you normally use "CHILL" mode or "NORMAL" mode with your model Y?

    You are soo right. But as someone who frequently drives in NYC, where the speed limit is 25 mph, and where my own daughter has amassed five camera-based $50.00 speeding tix in the past two months, I only slip out of chill for special occasions 🥳

    Do you normally use "CHILL" mode or "NORMAL" mode with your model Y?

    I got 53,000 miles out of my LR factory tires, drive in chill, and find that it’s pretty damn okay!

    CCS Adapter Support

    My ‘20 LR MY is CCS-ready, and I own a Chademo and CCS adapter, just in case, and in 69,000 miles have never used them.

    When to Replace 12v?

    @dude7, @JayPaul Agreed. Clearly the EV world is not without occasion speed bumps and landlines. It’s good to avoid what hazards lie ahead if you can.

    When to Replace 12v?

    My MY is 3.75 years old, (68K miles) and I walked into the Smithtown, NY service center last week, where the underwriter told me that there was no reason to change the 12v battery in the absence of error messages on the screen. I scheduled it anyway (along with electively scheduling the HEPA mod...

    USA MY RWD has soft limited LR battery!

    I am curious about something: If I pay less for a car with a battery limited by software, and the battery fails out of warranty, do I still pay “full-price” for the replacement battery (even though its functionality is software limited by the manufacturer)? Or do I pay a reduced price because it...

    SiriusXM on Model Y

    After diligently following the original Model 3 thread and this one, and DMing with a few of the cast members, I “took the plunge” with my 2020 LR MY. I 3D printed a slightly modified antenna mount, opening the angles on each side of the antenna to optimize range. I also epoxied a thin steel...

    SiriusXM on Model Y

    I now really believe (in view of petulant Elon’s recently announced plan to drop Disney+ from some Teslas after Disney withdrew advertising from X) that he must have had a disagreement or argument with Sirius/XM shortly before the finalization of Model 3 specs and impulsively said “fu€k em” —...

    When you say “opposite the charge port” do u mean on the other side of the car, or just other side of the port? I wasn’t sure from the picture.

    MY disabled 1000 miles from home ... twice. Any ideas?

    Your patience is remarkable, and your willingness to give credit where credit is due is quite honorable. But, realistically, in view of Tesla’s inability, to date, to fix your car, would you consider utilizing your state’s lemon laws?

Suddenly I can only unlock the door with the app and must press the steering wheel buttons to reboot. After the second occurrence...

    new long range model Y with very low EPA range

    Out of curiosity, if the car is one week old and Tesla replaces the battery, would Tesla have the right to install a Re-manufactured one? Ethically, a new one is indicated, but do ethics play any role here?

    More than most companies, Spotify will not allow you to be signed in to two places at once — unless you have their Duo or family plans. But even there, each authorized member has their own user name and pw. Please make sure you aren’t signed in on another device, and that no family members have...

    What's worn out?

    Yep! I have my MYLR since 6-20. I’m still on my original tires at 50K miles (SC and Costco agreed they didn’t need replacement) and my wiper blades are still like new. Astonishing!

    Climate turns off after 2 hours?

    I recently pre-warmed the car for 10-15 minutes prior to leaving for work on a day ambient temp was 32-35 degrees. Got to work uneventfully, but when I returned to my car at noon, it was still 70 degrees inside.

    Phantom Breaking on recent road trip

    I have a 20 LR with EAP, and most weekends do a 110 mile round-trip trip to NYC to visit my grown kids and one grandchild. I am usually on the Long Island Expressway or Northern State Parkway when it happens. Last weekend I had two unexpected episodes of phantom braking, and just last night one...
