Thank you all. I will wait until I get the new tires.

I have done my own tire rotation on my 2022 Model Y every 6200 miles or so as suggested on owner's manual. My tires have about 32k miles and will need to be replaced in the next few months. One thing I've noticed is that there is a slightly increased tire wear on the inside of all 4 tires...

You can also force the car to relearn/reset tire settings and reset the mileage for another 6,250 miles. https://www.tesla.com/ownersmanual/modely/en_us/GUID-94F63B13-EA2C-45D9-83AB-5DCA6295D587.html#CONCEPT_FMN_B4Y_3TB

Is the puddle light working? A common window failure on rear windows can be attributed to a bad puddle light. Oddly, the window and puddle light share the same circuit.

Here to also recommend you install level 2 charger. Not just for the convenience. Where I live (Georgia), Supercharging prices are between 3 and 4 times as expensive as what I pay at home.

There’s a YouTube video of v3 on the Teslasy website. Mine has never been choppy though.

FYI for all you Teslasy 9.6 inch display owners. There is a software update that fixes some bugs and adds some additional languages and screen animations. Version 3. Take a look at the instructions, it's actually three separate updates done in a specific sequence...

Any chance you’re using the Tesla Home Screen widget on your phone? I know it’s a long shot but I’ve had my frunk open before because I had not locked my phone before i put it in my pocket and the ”open frunk” widget icon got pressed while in my pocket.

I only use the additional usb for things like additional light shows or boombox sounds. I hated the usb implementation for USB music playback. Seemed too hard to find things or it would forget where it was and start over playlists, etc so I removed all music and just stream via streaming app...

Further down in the manual, there is this note... Tesla changed center console ports to be charge-only ports or not data-capable. You can, however, replace that module with an aftermarket data-capable module. That's what I did to my 2022 Model Y. Something like this... USB-C Upgrade Module...

Your car has 2 batteries. The high voltage battery pack you charge and a smaller 12 or 16v battery for things like opening the doors, infotainment system, etc. It sounds like the smaller battery has died and needs to be replaced.

Doesn't the car allow you to configure your tire size, etc so it can automatically adjust speedometer, range estimates, etc?

Gotcha.. Makes sense.

Does your car not have connectivity? MyQ should use your car's LTE connection.

Model Y weighs less than a lot of SUVs and trucks out there (around 4400 lbs. for MY Long Range). Sure, it weighs more than comparable mid-size SUV but it's not like Model Ys are the reason for tire particulate pollution. Check out the weight of these popular SUVs in comparison.

Here's the part numbers for that caliper...

Yeah, I don't see a part number for those. So odd. Like you, I can't imagine you have to replace the entire caliper. Could you source a used caliper from a junkyard?

There is also an option in the mobile app to unlatch the driver door. This is for something like the door handle being frozen but could come in handy if the door handle actually failed in some way.

Is it this bolt? https://stock-tesla.com/en/index.php?route=product/product&product_id=21772 The website is in Ukraine but maybe you can source it elsewhere if Tesla won't sell it to you directly.

I upgraded yesterday. iPhone 12 Pro. No issues with Tesla app or functionality.

My apologies Joe. I was connected to my work VPN and it was blocking your video link. I figured it out when your second post was also missing the link. My bad.

video link?

I think you can see pack temp in the service menu but you may have to be parked to access it.

It's normal for it to get quite warm while charging. In the case it should get too hot, there is a temperature sensor built into that Nema 14-50 adapter that will cause the car lower your charge rate from 32 amps to 16 amps and you will see an error on the car telling you so. For example..

For some reason, I've found that my EA attempts fail unless I do things in this order... Before plugging in, initiate a charge on the EA app by looking up the stall, etc. Once I do that, the EA stall will prompt me to plug into car and that seems to work fine. Whenever I plug in first and...

Check out Domenick's podcast Batteries Included. They have aired several "test" episodes. I think they officially launch in September sometime.

Seriously. I was CONVINCED it was coming from dash because banging on the dash would re-create the rattle. The acoustics in the car must be weird because it didn't sound like it was coming from the screen. Because there was NOTHING loose under the dash, one day I decided to check EVERYTHING...

Yes, it turned out to be a phone mount attached to the infotainment screen. Very odd.

I've had my 2022 MYLR since May of last year, so around 15 months. If you look at the TeslaFi Battery Degradation report, you can see that my range (the blue line) goes way below average and back up to above average. I wouldn't sweat it too much. I am surprised at how much it varies.

As fiehlsport posted above, the car does not adjust from 16v. Some 12v devices just happen to work with it (getting lucky). It's also the reason why some devices DO NOT. They can't tolerate the 16v.

I ended up doing a similar thing. I deleted the Easy Entry profile. Then recreated it but the second time around, I only have the steering wheel move up away from my legs for easy entry. Seat stays in same position as my profile. So now, even when I do the theater thing, the steering wheel...

You can turn off Easy Entry by editing your profile and unchecking the Easy Entry box.

I post this in jest but interesting nonetheless.

With the right equipment, it can be a one man job. Safelite uses a telescoping arm with suction cups that hold an entire windshield to allow a single technician to replace a windshield. Maybe Tesla is doing a similar thing.

If they're saying it can be done at home maybe I'm mistaken. When I had my windshield replaced, I had to bring it in.

I don't think windshield replacements are done via mobile tech. You have to bring the car in for that.

It’s probably the cabin temperature sensor going bad

When I did my Homelink retrofit on my 2022 Model Y, the homelink plug needed to be unwrapped from the harness and it was located closer to the driver side fender than the frunk hatch. It took me a while to find it. Once unwrapped, it easily reached the mounting spot near the frunk latch.

I'm willing to bet that the car just does not have access to internet even if you are checking for software updates. It's possible that it says it last checked for updates just now but maybe it did not even connect. As far as traffic, my map seems to always show stale traffic data, as in...

This... whenever this happens to me, it's a glitch that gets fixed with a reboot OR the car is really in a spot with almost no LTE service so it can't communicate with the Tesla servers. The reason why your bluetooth stuff works is because its not relying on the LTE/Wifi connection like Sentry...

I've taken several 1000-1400 mile road trips and have learned to trust the car navigation. It's VERY accurate. Even when it tells me I'll arrive to a supercharger with as little at 8-10% it's always been right on the money or we actually get there with a little more charge than the car estimated.

There should be no linking of MyQ and Homelink. They are completely separate and don't rely on the other to operate. Homelink will only work if your car has the Homelink module (actual hardware) installed after the car was purchased (the car does not come with it from factory). MyQ, on the...

When I go to the messages app on Tesla screen, it shows any messages received since my phone connected to the car. If no messages have been received, it shows nothing. Just clarifying that it does show new messages, just not old messages.

I just used a heavy duty zip tie in place of the screw.

My Model Y does the pulsating thing. Looks like the brightness increases then decreases within a few seconds. It used to be a bright flash. It came with any of the 2023.2.x software versions. https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/version/2023.2.10/release-notes

Sorry for the late response but yes, the fix is holding up.

This is admittedly a small annoyance but why does the car switch from my driver profile to the Easy Entry profile when I'm parked and open the Theater app? I know I can manually switch back to my profile but I wish it would only switch to Easy Entry when exiting the car.

It's part of software version 2023.6.9. Just started rolling out. And to be clear, it's only the parking assist (No summon, etc yet). https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/version/2023.6.9/release-notes

Although it looks like the browser change is on version 2023.6.9. Listed under undocumented changes. https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/version/2023.6.9/release-notes
