    Circuit Electric

    I've had issues getting it to connect/unlock the door for the plug with the app before so I bought their card and it works perfectly fine.

    PreDelivery Check 2023 MY Long Range

    This is not true. They had to repaint my rear passenger door that they damaged during a mobile service and they towed it to the body shop. When I went back to pick it up I also saw a flat bed taking another car to the shop.

    Best screen protector kit?

    Its more to protect it against bumps or scratches. Imagine you pull out your laptop and knock the screen or scratching it with a ring. I can't talk about dark mode during the daytime or the matte screen protector because I have the spigen glossy protector. It hides fingerprints really well...

    Charging for terraced houses

    This is what we have all around Quebec. theres thousands of them and they cost $1CAD/hour or $2.50/session. It seems like the only thing stopping the UK from doing this is the councils.

    Unsure if model 3 would be right for me - advice appreciated

    @father_of_6 That’s why I said that the Tesla will definitely be more fun to drive. You have the old gen Mazda 3 so you can’t compare it. Mazda is trying to go upscale so they improved a lot over your 3rd gen. We’re comparing it against the 3 turbo which does 5.6s so it’s 15k less for 1.4...

    Unsure if model 3 would be right for me - advice appreciated

    The Tesla will definitely be more fun but you have to consider the price difference. My Mazda AWD without turbo isn’t the fastest but it’s still fun to drive especially in the snow whereas the Tesla just cuts off all the power. I would say you get 90% of what the Tesla gets you for 70% of...

    Mobile Service scratched off paint from my rear door while replacing passenger seat. What do I do?

    This has to be a joke. After all these months waiting, they send me a message that they’re closing the collision center permanently and that I have to go to a 3rd party. They could’ve just told me that 2 months ago

    Unsure if model 3 would be right for me - advice appreciated

    The newer gens Mazdas are much better than you think. Interior quality is better and the turbo version makes it on par with the RWD model 3 for a fraction of the cost. I’ve had way more issues in the 4 months that I’ve had my Tesla than in the 2 years that I’ve had my Mazda 3

    Unsure if model 3 would be right for me - advice appreciated

    I have a 2020 Mazda 3 sport AWD and 2022 model 3 RWD. If you don’t care about the gas money, you should get a 3 turbo. The interior feels much nicer than the Tesla and if you get the hatchback it’s more practical. Also less quality control issues with than Tesla. However, the turbo didn’t...

    Tesla Service Experience - General Question

    I don’t know about those cars but where I’m from, the service center tends to delay appointments by a lot, maybe to avoid what you’re seeing. They also have terrible service I got my car in February. The car was making a lot of noises so they came to my home end of February to fix it. They...

    Wall charger price just dropped after purchase

    I purchased it for $700 in February. Just be happy that you got the mobile connector included. They were probably able to drop the price since they make more money when selling the car without the connector

    Aero Wheel cap kit - updated 2021

    Mobile Service scratched off paint from my rear door while replacing passenger seat. What do I do?

    yeah their service is mostly hit or miss. I went the day this happened and the guy didn't care at all, he didn't look at the car and told me to leave since apparently the mobile service is separate from the service center even though the person that damaged the car was there and the receipt...

    Warranty issue and complete lack of customer service.

    This is an old thread but did you find a way to talk to someone higher up? Mobile service damaged my car yesterday (I have video proof) and fixed it with touch up paint but it looks horrible. I went to the service center the same day and the guy told me that mobile service is separate from the...

    Mobile Service scratched off paint from my rear door while replacing passenger seat. What do I do?

    I just looked at my doorbell and found a clip of how he did it. He left a trim piece on the roof and the wind pushed it off causing it to scratch the door. What would be an appropriate resolution for the service center because I'm really not happy how he left it.

    Mobile Service scratched off paint from my rear door while replacing passenger seat. What do I do?

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    Just yesterday I checked again and it was backup to 437km so I don’t think we should pay attention to that number as it varies so much. This week I did start leaving it unplugged more often and didnt charge it a couple of days whereas when it was at 429km I left it plugged in 24/7 since I WFH

    Getting Window Tint in Montreal

    Hi, This is my first time getting any type of window tint on a car so I had a couple of questions, some of them specific to Montreal. What percentage of tint can I get in the front windows without getting pulled over? The legal limit is only 70% but I'd like to put at least 30-50% on the front...

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    They say in the manual to keep it plugged in as much as possible and to keep the charge limit to 100%. Also the delivery guy told me that since it’s LFP I can just keep it plugged in when I don’t use it

    Model 3 SR+ LFP Battery Range, Degradation, etc Discussion

    I’ve had my LFP model 3 for a bit less than 7 weeks and I’ve done 2000km. When I fully charged the car at delivery it showed 439km but now it shows 435km. Is it normal to get a 1% loss after so little usage?

    Glowing Climate icon

    I think it means that it is slightly heating up the cabin. I haven’t used the car in 4 hours so there’s no reason for it not to be at the same temperature as the exterior. Also, a couple of hours ago the interior was at -9 while the exterior was -12 so it somehow heated up

    Tesla Vision earns IIHS "Superior" rating avoiding crash in *all* pedestrian tests

    There you go fixed it for you. Unfortunately I am smart enough to put winter tires on all my cars so I won't be able to test that for you. In the test the Mazda would've been on the normal setting so now this should be on par with the Tesla's warning timing but without the phantom braking. I...

    Tesla Vision earns IIHS "Superior" rating avoiding crash in *all* pedestrian tests

    You’re comparing a $23k car (base model in Canada) that has had this equipment as standard since 2019 and has always avoided all the crashes with no widespread reports of phantom braking to a $60k car made by a tech company that was just now able to avoid impact after collecting data from their...

    Tesla Vision earns IIHS "Superior" rating avoiding crash in *all* pedestrian tests

    I have a 2020 Mazda 3 and only had phantom braking once when reversing into my driveway which has a slight incline. It saved me a couple of times from backing into low objects at night time and applied the brakes harder than I was when I had a car in front of me slam their brakes. I’ve never...

    Can mobile service push an update to my car?

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    You should definitely put winter tires on it. I put winter tires on mine as soon as I got it but my AWD Mazda 3 still drives better in the snow for close to half of the Tesla’s price. The braking is good with winter tires but the TCS really limits the power and the light keeps coming on...

    Nema 14-50 cost

    I really don’t think it matters. My electrician gave me the itemized bill and other than charging me $20 more for the breaker, they charged me what it would cost me to buy the cable and the same hourly price that they charge everyone. It 100% depends on the electricians though. One certified...

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    I had the same problem with the seal on the passenger side so mobile service is coming next week to fix it. Some of the interior trim also isn’t fitted correctly and either the frunk is lower on one side or the fender isn’t aligned correctly.

    Nema 14-50 cost

    It cost me $691CAD to install a wall connector with 30ft of cable that is good for 75A on a 60A circuit. He hid the cable through to ceiling and walls so it is completely invisible. Your quote seems a bit expensive but there might be things specific to you that are making the price be so high.

    SR/SR+ (Model 3 RWD) Waiting Room

    Theres no reason you would get slower charging. They are both 50A (40A at 80%) and the UMC can only charge at 32A. The 14-50 adapter was just made because most households that have outlets have a 14-50 but it makes no use of the neutral connector. That’s why it works with 6-50
