    Openstreetmaps and FSD

    It has been almost 2 months since your edit. Have you noticed a difference yet? I'm very curious about this.

    Wiki Teslike Model Y Survey & Order Tracker Spreadsheet

    Yeah, I was one of those who got a lower VIN (072xx red aero RWD) when others were getting VINs in the 09xxx range. After understanding that they weren't 100% sequential, it wasn't really a big deal to me. Maybe others made more of this discrepency. What I really liked about VINs and how...

    Software Update 2018.36.x

    I just got this update as well. I got 2018.34.1 yesterday at the SC and then just got pushed 36.1 about an hour ago (first on ev-fw.com). I poked around and didn't see anything different than before 34.1. @bradhs, I specifically looked for "PIN to Drive" but didn't see it in the security setting.

    Model 3 Software Updates

    Yesterday evening (Friday) I got 2018.26.3 after having 2018.26.1 for 7 days. I couldn't observe any difference so likely bug fixes.

    Model 3 Software Updates

    Got it yesterday as well. Been on 2018.21.9 since June 16th.

    2018.24.8 25f83c2?

    I'm in the same boat, still no update. I took delivery 2 days after yours for comparison reasons. I keep an eye on the updates at Tesla Firmware Upgrade Tracker Web App There were two model 3s that got the 2018.24.8 update today.

    Charge Port Door Needs service

    I'm on my 3rd port so far (6 weeks). I had to take my 3 into the SC to fix the bottom right fog light (not coming on) and as I was leaving my house to go to the SC, I heard a strange vibration back near the charge port about 5 seconds after transitioning to Drive and moving forward. This...

    Distracted Driving with a monitor

    One thing on the Model 3 that I have found to be quite excellent, to reduce distractions, is the voice assist. Not that I have used many other voice assist ants (Google Voice, Garmin GPS, Waze, Cortana), but the Model 3 frequently (in the high 90s percent) gets my "Navigate to ...." request...

    Distracted Driving with a monitor

    Yes, that was a very detailed report. I skimmed much of it but was fairly impressed with their methods. Thanks for sharing this info.

    Phone as Key Issues

    I keep my card in my wallet. I have tried it in a pocket in the middle of the wallet. There is about a 3/8" of cards and wallet/leather between the card and the sensor. It wasn't really reliable (maybe 50% of the time) so I moved it to the location where bills are normally kept, which leaves...

    2018.14.13 update

    And now the navigation slider is working for me again (after no updates). It just started working a few days after my last post.

    Phone as Key Issues

    On key/fob issue I had in the past was on my Lexus ES300 key (which included the lock/unlock button on the key itself). Over time, the key would eventually break at the location where it joined to my key ring. The key/fob still worked but it just didn't stay affixed to my key ring which meant...

    Distracted Driving with a monitor

    I've been showing off my Model 3 for the last month that I have had it and recently one of the people looking at it was wondering when the first case of distracted driving was going to make it to the courts for these cars with large (and potentially small) monitors as a primary human/car...

    Poll: Model 3 Phone Key Failure Rate

    This worked on Marshmallow. Unfortunately I already had location turned on for the Tesla app. Thanks anyway. I'm still having relatively poor success rate on first try. It is still almost 100% if I start the app and it shows connected. PS: I really don't want another key fob on my...

    Poll: Model 3 Phone Key Failure Rate

    Are there any equivalent setting for Android? I'm on Marshmallow (6.0.1) and looked around settings numerous times (whenever I see posts like this) and have never found an app setting that looked like it would adjust how the Tesla app uses location.

    I've tried many directions. When it did work, to the right or down did the same thing. One curious note is that when my wife tried it today, it worked for her. Curious...

    2018.14.13 update

    My 3 got 2018.14.7 a couple of days back. Another change I noticed was that in 2018.12.1, I was able to slide the Navigate button to the right to automatically select "Home" or "Work" depending on my current location. When I received 2018.14.7, I was no longer able to slide the "Navigate"...

    Phone as Key Issues

    When I mentioned the 30-40% success rate it is related to the first time touching the door handles. It is fairly rare to not be able to open the doors once the app is running in the foreground and the Phone Key section says "Connected". If those two requirements are met, I'd say I can open the...

    Phone as Key Issues

    Interesting... While on a road trip over last week, at the beginning (before getting 2018.12.1) we would get out of the car (2-3 times) and the back passenger window would be down a few inches. Since we had just been driving, we would have heard the open window so we are pretty sure that it...

    "Tap Key Card to Allow Driving" while driving!

    We have rebooted a few times. The dialog comes up periodically and we just dismiss it so not a huge issue at this point.

    Model 3 Software Updates

    For 2018.12.1, I have observed the following changes: TACC speed adjustment (right wheel up/down) and follow distance adjustment (right wheel left/right) Mirror adjustment and wheel adjustment on left wheel Slide "Navigation" button to right to go to Home. I hear that if you are home, slide to...

    Phone as Key Issues

    On a trip from WA to CA, bay area and have been experiencing somewhere in the 30-40% success rate with my Android phone where I can open my car the first time I walk up to it. I currently feel lucky when I push in the handle and can get into my car. While charging at Vacaville this morning...

    "Tap Key Card to Allow Driving" while driving!

    We're on a trip from Seattle to CA so we have been driving the car a lot. I find that that dialog comes up somewhat frequently (maybe 5 times on this trip) after the car has started. I just select the "x" in upper left corner and it goes away. I'm still not sure why this happens but it...

    "Tap Key Card to Allow Driving" while driving!

    The wife just got back from a trip to the store in the Model 3. We recently got our phones working as a Key Card (it was not connecting reliably before). At the store she unlocked the door with her phone in proximity by pulling on the driver handle. Then she went to open the trunk to put some...

    Phone as Key Issues

    Got my car back from the Service Center tonight after they fixed my front USB ports (a cable wasn't seated somewhere), fixed a misaligned piece on the drive stalk and looked at my phone as a key issue. While I was there, they walked through a number of potential issues that can be had with a...

    Quick help regarding Supercharging

    My first Supercharging session was 7 hours after delivery and the second was about 30 hours after delivery. Did you supercharge at different locations all three times?

    Phone as Key Issues

    You will be able to get into the car reliably, but maybe not with your phone right away. The key card works 100% of the time for me, it is just somewhat of a pain. My car is at the Service Center tonight to have a few things fixed, with the phone key being the main issue for me.

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    I'd start to get your loan in order, if you are going to have one and haven't done so already. You should get a call from your ISA within a few days to touch base and maybe give you a delivery estimate or at the very least a time when the delivery date/time will be defined. If after a few days...

    Phone as Key Issues

    I hear that clunk as well when I touch the door handle. I suppose this is the sound of the car waking up. At work there is no cell signal in the garage so using the phone to unlock over the internet/cell is a non-started for me. I have to whip out my wallet and can frequently swipe my wallet...

    Phone as Key Issues

    I believe I having the similar (maybe same) problems you are with my Android phone and Model 3. I'm taking my car in tomorrow evening get the front USB ports working and hopefully the phone issue resolved. Futzing with my wallet to unlock the car and to allow me to drive is getting tiresome...

    Charge Port Door Needs service

    During my delivery on Friday, 3/30, my car had this same warning. There was no water involved but they likely washed the car just before delivery. One interesting thing was that it would open and close once but wouldn't open again until after 20-30 seconds. They replaced the charging port in...

    If your phone key doesnt work do this

    Are others still seeing this issue? Mine issue may be a little different. I tend to reboot my phone and it will work initially but after a drive it will stop working. Seems that if mine worked one time, it is likely not the bluetooth cert issue for me.

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    I can confirm this as well. Showed up at my appointment on Friday at 11am. During the delivery, it was discovered that the charging port door wouldn't open reliably. One of the guys helping us with the delivery was very concerned since we were going on a trip from Seattle to Portland almost...

    First day with Model 3 experience

    Yes, we found that as well. When heading back home, Tesla Navigation suggested stopping at the Vancouver, WA Supercharger. We wanted to stop at an earlier Supercharger (Woodburn, OR) as there looked to be better food options but couldn't figure out how to switch the recommended supercharger...

    First day with Model 3 experience

    The drive back home (4.5 hours) was much better after having the adjustments in place at the beginning. Still fooling around with it. And, yes, I'd like to see that video as well if you can find it again.

    First day with Model 3 experience

    Yes, this was my first time disengaging. Typing up on the drive stalk is the least impactful disengagement control as you can put your foot on the accelerator and have no sense that anything changed except for the blue circles going away (and the disengagement tone). Break also works as you...

    First day with Model 3 experience

    Just received my Model 3 today as well. When I took delivery, the charging port wouldn't open reliably so they replaced it right away (1-2 hour additional wait) but they got it done quickly as we were heading out of town today. After the replacement, the port would open reliably. We took a...

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    Yeah, this is what we ended up doing. It was a really big deal. I had thought that two accounts would enable personalized profiles that travel with your phone. I believe that is something planned for the future when the Tesla Network is up and running. Until then, just sharing an account...

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    There seems to be a little confusion with my wife's Tesla account. I was told that in order for my wife to be able to use the Tesla app on her phone, she would need to have a Tesla account. So she created an account a week ago. When the delivery center called last week, I asked to make sure...

    ISA Communications / Scheduled Deliveries

    Seems like this is a common problem recently. I don't recall seeing a lot of delays in the past weeks. There was no where near as many as I have seen this last week. Maybe they just tried to push too hard to get the deliveries done before the end of the quarter.

    Got some bad news on the way home from work. The truck bringing my car to Bellevue, WA is going slower than expected and will not be to Bellevue on Tuesday. The delivery specialist offered to move my delivery to Friday or Saturday. I chose Friday at 11am. Very disappointed but what is...

    VIN Assignment

    I reserved at Bellevue Square as well (9:47am) and also scheduled a factory tour a few days after I received my VIN. We'll be in the bay area in mid April and I'm so looking forward to the tour. We'll taking delivery on 3/27 and driving it down to the bay area on a short vacation. I was...

    Got my final MVPA today for my delivery on Tuesday, 3/27. The pro forma MVPA that I received on 3/10 had some issues; Incorrect sales tax, incorrect down payment. My ISA said this was just a rough document. I told her "OK" and provided info about my down payment and how the the WA state sales...

    Sure. I got my VIN on Saturday morning (3/10), got the call from my ISA in the early afternoon and received the MVPA around that same time.
