    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    Sorry for the late reply! It was a PTC heater issue. It was replaced and was $870. CareX warranty covered it less the deductible

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    Car diagnostic done. I was told the PTC heater needs to be replaced. There was nothing wrong w/ the 12V. I'll replace the 12V anyway since it's been 5 years. Thank god for my extended service contract. Looks like I'm covered for the heater replacement.

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    I never got the 12V replacement warning. That error didn’t pop up until the car completely died. I believe once I parked the car, it wasn’t able to “sleep”. I kept hearing the battery connector making the clanking noise from outside every few minutes. it stopped once, based on my assumption, the...

    Built 8/2018 - Model 3 LR AWD - HV Battery issue or 12V issue?

    I agree with the point about replacing the 12V. Would it make sense to have it towed to the tesla and have them do it and if it fixes problem, great. If not, more diagnostics to be done at that point. I have AAA and I also have the X-care extended warranty plan. Does it make sense to call AAA...

    XPEL Ultimate Plus PPF durability?

    Hey all, I have had my XPEL PPF and Ceramic Pro for 10 months. A week ago, a large rock hit the hood and looks like it skipped on the hood as it left a couple of marks. The initial point of impact looked so bad that it literally tore off the PPF and the paint underneath. Now that I have a...

    New LR AWD 322mi range: will existing LR AWD cars get the increased range?

    Drop is not linear with time though? Assuming you maintain it. Don't overcharge or discharge... degradation should eventually plateau right?

    Rear defroster/defogger operate only below certain ambient temp?

    I had my windows tinted 3 weeks ago. I had no issues with the defroster/defogger in the days ahead. In the past few days, it's been quite humid. Each morning, my rear windows are fogged up. The outside temp is showing in the 80F range. I tried using the defogger function and it would not do...

    Am at a loss: is the $2k FSD offer going away on Monday?

    This thread is quite long... can someone tell me if my EAP (purchased with ordering of car in June 2018) would be grandfathered into the features advertised before the shuffling of features that we now see in FSD/AP? In order words, do 2018 EAP customers get enhance summons?

    I was driving on the freeway using AP. Suddenly the system starts alarming and I had to take over control. No issues during drive otherwise. Cameras appear clear. Everything else works fine. Drove home. Parked it. Did a manual reset (two scroll wheels down and brake depresses). It did not...

    East Coast Waiting Room - AWD - Non-Performance

    Picked my AWD at Manhasset. The delivery was rushed and they do not give you enough time to thoroughly inspect the car. I arrived 40 minutes early. Checked in. Was told my car is not on site yet. They have to drive it from their Syosset site and it's suppose to arrive at the delivery center by...

    Model 3 defects on delivery archive - Post your experience

    I asked this in another thread, but got no traction -- when these issues are seen are delivery, how does the documentation process work?

    How are delivery issues/flaws documented at delivery?

    so I picked up my car yesterday. Went through the checklist. Found a few things to fix. The delivery rep snapped the pics and told me to expect a call from the SC. I was given no papers of anything. I was also told that the cars are prepped and not detailed. Though the rep told me the...

    Bump Can you make the ACH transfer at the time of delivery? I want to inspect vehicle first and then pay online. I read that this is a possible option. Just want to confirm with others!

    Paying by ACH early

    Hey OP My website updated today to give me the option to pay as well. I have my VIN but it’s no where on the website. Nor has my IDA reached out. I also have a delivery date in Sept. How did you get your Final MVPA? Mine still has RN number listed.

    Upgrading from NEMA 14-50 50amps to HPWC 60amps

    Here, where did you get that mount for your charger cable? I'm looking to do the same, but as an exterior set up. The UMC kit is a little more than $300. I think I may get a second one and keep it in place and have the extra UMC in the car just in case.

    Juicebox vs. Siemens Versicharge?

    I’m not sure if I’d get another Tesla. If I end up getting another EV, I may or may not go Tesla.. its really to give me a bit more flexibility. The other thing is my current panel has a total of 100 amp. Not sure if I have enough flexibility/breaker slots to accommodate.

    Juicebox vs. Siemens Versicharge?

    I am looking at these 2 ESVEs. At Costco, they are doing a $70 off the Versicharge. This brings it down to $390 before tax. The Juicebox Pro 40 amps is faster and sleeker. But it's also priced @ $550. I read about some charging issues between the Versicharge and the Model 3. Has that been...

    Let's talk financing rates

    Posted in the other thread, but NY buyers should check Municipal Credit Union - they are doing 1.95% for 60 months. I managed to get Lightstream to rate beat, so now i's 1.85%. very happy with this.
