    FSD now $99 a month

    FSD/AP is per profile. Create a new profile with FSD turned off and switch profile on the go. It sucks that getting out of FSD also disables TACC and hopefully this was an oversight and will be fixed but for now, that's an option.

    Warranty through CBI Finance

    I've been in contact with them and one thing interesting came to mind. You can subscribe to their warranty (or insurance, whatever you want to call it) after your own one has expired and there is only a one month cool down before you can make a claim. So, if you have an expensive part to replace...

    Change owner account

    How does that work for profiles? Do you have different driver profiles or must you also share the same driver profile? How about Spotify profile? Same?

    Block automatic opening recharge door

    I suggest still using car wash mode. In that mode, the windows raises up a bit more to make sure they seal correctly.

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    I whish though the wipers would delay start instead of as soon as you push the scroll wheel. This would allow me to move it from Auto to slow intermittent without having them going berserk as soon as I push the scroll wheel.

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    Having bought a Prius Prime to complement our Tesla, I truly agree. I hate that cruise control stick! Especially since it turns with the steering wheel!

    Auto headlights with wipers function deleted

    Well, I've never been in a situation where the rain was so strong that I couldn't see the vehicle in front of me (unlike fog). If someone wants to tailgate, lights are not going to deter them. Beside, in heavy snow and fog, headlights make the matter worse by illuminating the snow/fog in front...

    Auto headlights with wipers function deleted

    Never had a car that did that and it's not required in Canada. We already have running daylight, which beats lights on only while raining.

    My Model 3 was attacked in my drive way.

    You still should keep fire and vandalism for that exact reason. It's usually very cheap.

    Block automatic opening recharge door

    I always put the car in carwash mode before washing the car and the charge port door remains closed when touched until I deactivate the carwash mode or I open in from the App or touchscreen. That mode also raises the windows to their full extent so no water ingress and put the air conditioning...

    Any news about costing by kWh instead of by time to supercharge?

    Wow, that's quite high at over $1 per kWh! How long was the session? Did a back and forth Ottawa-Toronto last weekend. Friday (avg -10C) $13.85 31.41 kWh 22 min $12.19 26.49 kWh 28 min Sunday (avg 0C) $16.16 33.48 kWh 28 min $12.25 27.83 kWh 27 min $9.76 22.66 kWh 16 min Added 141.87 kWh...

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    I posted this on Reddit yesterday but didn't get much reply so I'll see if it gets better traction here. I've seen many posts about how bad the auto wipers are but personally, I'm not experiencing issues with them since October of last fall upgrade. Could be because I've clay bar'ed that area...

    Pixel 6 Pro: Unable to select "Allow all the time" for "Location" preferences

    It's not even there as an option as shown here for the Tesla app: Other apps has it so I know it's possible: My battery setting for the app is unrestricted if it matters: Is it something the Tesla app is restricting itself to? Anyone has that setting set to "Allow all the time"?

    Observation about auto cancel turn signal behaving like before the Christmas update

    So, sometimes the half depress of the turn signal sticks would still do 3 blinks and turn off like before and I think I've found when it happens and I have been able to reproduce it 100% of the time. It only does it when AutoPilot is engaged and when the AutoPilot don't auto disengage when the...

    Can't increase boombox volume

    Nobody has this problem? Might have to open a service call then. Or did I choose the wrong sub to post this?

    Can't increase boombox volume

    Hi, my boombox volume is so low that when the heat pump is on, I can't hear the song playing. I don't think it's defective because the backing up UFO sound is very audible. I saw in the doc that I can control the boombox volume through the app when outside the car and it's in camp mode. Except...

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    Just drove to the cottage in a light snow storm. Highway were wet with melted snow. Cars in front created a mist that the wipers correctly took care off. On less busy two way roads, when going over 70 km/h, the wipers didn't kick in because the snow didn't hit the windshield. At lower speed...

    Possible to disable the Android Tesla App notification widget interaction?

    Is there a way to disable the notification widget? That stupid thing opened my trunk while my locked phone was in my inner jacket pocket while shoveling snow. Guess what happened to the snow on the trunk!

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    Updated my 2021 Model 3 this morning. This afternoon, it started to rain before I left work for my commute home (35 minutes commute). Rain was from a drizzle to a light rain. I had absolutely zero complaints about the auto wipers. They worked exactly like I would have set them myself, even as it...

    How do you feel about the soft bristle brush at a manual car wash?

    That's the thing when you're retired, you're not as time constrained 😁

    How do you feel about the soft bristle brush at a manual car wash?

    Washing and drying probably. Cleaning/drying all the door/hood/trunk edges/creases as well as inside the car do take quite some times.

    MASTER THREAD: Auto Wiper functionality, complaints, praise, etc.

    I come from a 2009 Mazda 6 with autowiper. I despised these wiper because beside Auto and Low/High, you could make them go intermittent manually or do a single sweep when in Auto. My M3 works better than that but I do find it too precautiously choose a higher speed than needed. I wish AP would...

    UNLATCH_DRIVER_DOOR API parameters

    Anybody knows the parameters to the new UNLATCH_DRIVER_DOOR command? I tried without any parameter and with lat/lon (since you have to be close to the car to unlatch the driver door) and in both cases, the door didn't unlatch and 400 was returned as a result code.

    Not Checking For Updates On Demand

    It takes a few seconds as I leave the car and do it when a new year.x update is starting to be pushed to hundreds of cars on Teslafi. Like I was hoping to get the new energy page and Superchargers additional information before my trip to Toronto.

    Checking for updates…every 24hrs?

    Shoes that manually checking is faster if I always beat the notification 😉

    Checking for updates…every 24hrs?

    Indeed, but for me, the notification that an update was available appeared only once in over a year, hence why I prefer to check manually myself.

    Not Checking For Updates On Demand

    When I posted this on Reddit last week, people at the same version as me (2022.28) told me they were able to check for updates more than once a day. I wish they would allow at least twice a day so I could check every evening when coming back home instead of it always drifting further and...

    Checking for updates…every 24hrs?

    FALSE. Got the update to 2022.36.5 last evening after I explicitly told it to check for updates (my 24h was up). Didn't have any notification anywhere (car or app) that an update was ready to download.

    Updated to 2022.36.5 and sh!t, still the same behavior. I guess I'm in Updates purgatory 🙁

    Not Checking For Updates On Demand

    Yeah, was about to post about this. Seems to be oblivious to Reddit as everyone there was puzzled when I mentioned it. Take a look at those two screenshots. I just took them this morning. At 8:46am, it still says, without the "checking for updates" line first, that the car was up to date as of...

    Problem with Hansshow Support

    There, done it. I've removed the frunk so many times lately that the whole thing took me less than 10 minutes lol I didn't pull hard on the strings of fear of bending the casing but I could feel the cable making its way through the front where I should be able to cut it if needed be. It would...

    Problem with Hansshow Support

    Just thought of something. The motor pull cable is longer than necessary. I'm thinking of looping a nylon rope around it and bring that rope through that emergency hole. The idea is not to pull that cable through the hole but to make it visible through that hole. That way, a pair of bicycle...

    Problem with Hansshow Support

    Problem with Hansshow Support

    Had to deal twice with their support. Contacted them through email and they sent me a whatsapp number to text to. For the first one, the frunk wouldn't latch close. We exchanged message at one day interval (that's what happens when support is on the opposite side of the globe). Sent them picture...

    How do I disable the noisemaker in my Tesla Model 3

    I can hear the boombox in my 2021 but when turning it on while washing the car, it sounds like an AM radio, disappointing.

    API call latest_vehicle_data still returns 408 when asleep

    I noticed that with 4.12, the app responds with the state of the car right away, before connecting to it, so I'm guessing it has been implemented now. I'll check later on tonight if the call is finally implemented.

    Difference between 2022.24.5 and 2022.24.6

    I had an issue where my caller could hear me but I couldn't hear them through Bluetooth. Turns out my call volume was 0 lol. I'm not proud to say it took a few calls before I could figure out the "problem" lol.

    Difference between 2022.24.5 and 2022.24.6

    Just to make sure, you didn't delete videos or reformat your drive? This is what I used to do so new video could load faster.
