    Autopilot Disabled When Sold

    My understand is that tesla will disable it when you change the login/user on their website. I asked tesla about this as I wanted to give my TM3 to my son when he turns 16, and they told me the only way to ensure he keeps fsd is to keep the user myself.

    Using the parking brake

    Rear Parking Brake This enhanced parking brake is a redundant system whereby the the rear brake caliper pads are clamped down tighter (you can hear it). Also useful for when parked on an incline in case the regular “Park” fails. The rear parking brake can also be engaged from the touchscreen...

    California DMV - Plates & HOV Stickers

    So, if he claims you don't need the sticker, then why did you stop you at all? My experience was very different. I had a MS loaner from Santa Ana Service center and on the way home I use the HOV and got pulled over by CHP. I immediately realized/assumed that the loaner doesn't have the stickers...

    No need to contact or report problems with a Supercharger

    Yeah, been that way for over a year. I used to call as well and tell them, but then they started telling me "we already know, it's automatically reported".

    Turn Signal Behavior - Bug or "Feature"?

    Lemme guess... You're 'merican? I use it everyday when reversing (unless I'm backing up completely straight). It's no different than when you're going forward, the idea is to be extremely predictable and be courteous to other drivers by letting them know what your intentions are, I wish...

    Turn Signal Behavior - Bug or "Feature"?

    It's a bug. Or if it's intentional, it's new. I've had my TM3P for over a year, and the most recent update broke the "turn signal on reverse". I use it every day when I back out of a parking spot (as should everyone). I hope they fix this soon, it's a pain to continuously engage the turn signal...

    Autopilot Frustration

    This is a common "bug" in the newest update. Autopilot alighns the car a bit to the left, even in middle lanes. Has nothing to do with the car infront of you. Assuming it will be fixed soon.

    12V Lighter accessory doesn't fit with tray

    @insaneoctane what did you end doing with this? I too have the OP Dash charger and am having the same issue. thanks

    Model S —> Model 3 : Any regrets?

    I would say it more like this: MS = Mercdes S Class. M3 = Porsche 911

    Why I stopped displaying remaining miles

    I agree 300 miles. And, showing % is old school. Showing miles/Km remaining is "new school". Just like my phone, I have it set to time remaining, not % remaining.

    Why no Dynamic Speed Sensitive Volume Control???

    I usually adjust it, depends on the music. To be clear, I don't dramatically blast the volume when traveling faster. This is especially true in my TM3P, but even on my motorcycle the volume of music isn't much different between 10mph and 100mph (I do adjust it, of course, but much less...

    Smoking At The Superchargers? Yes Or No

    So true. You'd think people wouldn't complain so much, and live and let love.

    Smoking At The Superchargers? Yes Or No

    Nonsense. Complaining about seems to be "fake outrage" that's so prevalent today.

    Smoking At The Superchargers? Yes Or No

    Not a problem for me. I love cigar aroma.

    Neat trick to pass on unlimited supercharging to the next owner

    I had the same question/concern as I plan on gifting/selling my TM3P+ to my son in three years when he drives. I have unliited SC on my car. I think Tesla's policy on this is silly - all the car's features and benefits should stay with the car, regardless of what human has the title. I agree...

    Why no Dynamic Speed Sensitive Volume Control???

    It's definitely there, and I HATE it. Especially in stop-and-go traffic it annoying as heck - volume goes up and down and is highly annoying. I wish I could turn it off. (My previous motorcycle helmet speaker system had it as well, and I bought a new one (Sena) just for this reason.

    PSA: Use PIN-To-Drive or Keycard if you have small children

    Actually, you are being rude. I don't even have kids, and blaming the parent because kids being kids is ignorant. Of course, no parent is going to purposely put a child in that position, but I know that when I was a child, I got into all sorts of stuff that I shouldn't have without my parents...

    AutoLock Doors When Driving?

    AutoLock Doors When Driving?

    Mine for sure don't lock when driving, or at least the lock icon shows "unlocked". Can y'all please confirm that your lock icon shows "locked", as well? Thanks

    AutoLock Doors When Driving?

    In most cars I've owned the doors auto-lock when starting to drive and achieving roughly 5mph, or at least there is an option to do so. I don't see this in my TM3P. The lock icon stays in the unlocked position when I'm driving unless I manually press it to lock.

    Why Frunk unlock and not Trunk on first page of Tesla App?

    But if you're opening for someone else or want the truck to open before both hands are full with groceries, it would be great to have the truck open button on the home page.

    Can service center see your text message?

    Yes they get them, as long as your case is open. Once it is completed they well no longer recieve your SMS, until another case is opened, but then your SMS will go to your new car manager only .

    Tesla Ban - Security just kicked me out of an EV spot

    He's not claiming that it is his "right" , nor is he claiming they don't have the right to mandate rules as management chooses, but that doesn't mean he can't complain about it.

    Lets hope Tesla doesn't go bankrupt with 35K model 3

    I always wondered why $35k was so special. Before Elon targeted this as a goal, I never thought of this price as important. A true low cost, mass vehicle is probably about $20k-$25k, but I don't personally think Tesla should go there. Actually I think the target could have been moved since he...

    Suggestion: Deactivate easy entry when the car detects a rear passenger

    Interesting. My Easy Entry setting does the opposite. I have the seat move forward and up to get out/in the car. Why would you move the seat back away from the dorr to get out/in of the vehicle?

    Help! Frunk won't open

    I assumed you click the "open" button twice? And try closing all the way, and trying again. I had this problem a few times, and the above helped.

    Model 3 Valet Mode

    Agree with the OP. Valet mode should allow the owner to adjust more settings, including max speed down to 5mph, lock trunk, lock all doors except driver, force chill mode, no changes of ANY settings, alert owner via app if driven for more then 5 miles, etc

    How does Tesla continue to sell Model S for 40-50K more than 3.?

    I meant ludicrous+. Funny timing... I put my tm3p in for service yesterday afternoon (replace side mirror assembly), do my loaner is another S75D .And within 10 minutes of driving it, I laughed out loud and though of this thread .I stand by my assertions.. the S is a luxury sedan (beautiful...

    2016 Model S 90D, New Nose, Lifetime Supercharging - $72,500

    Yes. However the discussion of unlimited suercharging was brought up (by me) and I wrote about giving my tm3p to my son in a few years and was wondering if it transfers to him. It does not.

    2016 Model S 90D, New Nose, Lifetime Supercharging - $72,500

    Actually, you're spreading misinformation. I just called Tesla. The free supercharging does not follow the car if sold . Call for yourself before responding .

    2016 Model S 90D, New Nose, Lifetime Supercharging - $72,500

    I thought the free supercharging does not "follow" the car when sold. At least that's what I was told by a Tesla employee. Which is weired by the way... if I gift my car to my son he doesn't get the unlimited SC? Also, how would Tesla know that the car has a new owner? From the email login of...

    How does Tesla continue to sell Model S for 40-50K more than 3.?

    0. Of course it's subjective - most everything is. I favor a minimalist design (I'm from Germany, s fan of Bauhaus and my wife is a retired high-end interior designer - that's why. The S is much, much, too cluttered with many too many buttons, stalks and knobs . 1. Right, I agree the 3 is a...

    How does Tesla continue to sell Model S for 40-50K more than 3.?

    True. But that's in "ludicrious" mode which is not to be used on a regular basis as it degrades the battery. Non-ludicrious is 2.9. And again, that's that's just 0-60. The actual driving experience, especially in twisties is much more satisfying for a peformance driver with the 3 than the S...

    How does Tesla continue to sell Model S for 40-50K more than 3.?

    Personally, I prefer the 3 quite a bit over the S. Video: Opinionated comparison: Tesla Model 3P vs S75D:

    How does Tesla continue to sell Model S for 40-50K more than 3.?

    With respect, the 3 has a much nicer interior, and only the P100D is slightly quicker 0-60 (but handles like a "boat" compared to the 3). The S is larger and has heating steering wheel, air/adjustable suspension (but reduces quality of handling), and auto-open trunk.
