I updated to 2022.36 toady and I had a nasty surprise! The car (2018 Midrage Model 3) totally reformatted to the setting when I pick up the card new. EVERYTHING is gone: Favorites, EAP settings, various profile settings, radio settings, mirrors, trip odometers reset to zero even though I never...

My opnion of the car and the company has taken a 180 turn. I will not recommend anyone to purchase a car from them. I would expect better service on a $55,000 vehicle.

Thank you jjrandorin. I did not look up the warranty on the battery. What is your views on the 17% degradation after 24,000 miles, 2.5 year old car. The average degreadation for the first year is 4% and 1% each year there after. I am sitting at three times that rate. I am not a speed racer...

I have a 2018 Model 3 with 24, 328 miles. Purchaed as a mid range 265 mile car. Software version 2021.32.10. Over they past 2.5 years, my average charge was to 80%. The car when cycled (15% to 100%) would charge to no more than 225 miles. About a 17% degradation for a 2.5 year old car. Two...

Thank for you that great explanation!

Been using the TeslaCam for months and while the date stamp is correct, the time stamp is off by hours. Alternating between a ScanDisc 64 and 128 gb micro discs. I swap out weekly. Very frustrating looking at mid afternoon videos time stamped 6:27 am. Clock in the car is spot on. Any thoughts...

Amazon has a white bottle and a blue bottle of 303. Which do you recommend? Thanks.

Upgraded last week. Modification made thing worse in my opinion.

Just find it odd nothing for 6 weeks then 13 events in a few hours. Will see what this week brings.

Been using sentry mode for about 6 weeks with a 64 GB ultra fit USB 3.1 flash drive and have had maybe one or two events during that time. Since the update last week (2019.12.1.2 5c87371), sentry mode has been going crazy. In one three hour period with the car parked in my usual spot in a...

I like having the mirrors fold when I leave the car so that is not an option. At $50,000 the mirrors should not whilst and be functional.

Agree. There seems to be enough people talking about this that it is not an isolated issue. I have not figured out what to do about it. Probably let it go.

Sounds like an easy fix. Thanks!

Yup, intermittent in the 40-50 mph range. Beantownrich recommends a service appointment. Sounds like a plan.

While driving, reached out and put my finger where I am pointing to in the picture. Noise stopped.

Thought I was the only one. Any solutions to how to eliminate the noise?

Nope. Don’t want to force anything into that gap. It is where the housing pivots. Any ideas from your end?

Have my MR for about 6 weeks. Amazing machine. The newness never wears off. Enjoy!

Enjoy your new ride. Got my MR3 about a month ago. Incredible machines. Here’s to 100,000 stress free mikes!

From day one owning the 3 (about 30 days), when I go 40 to about 55 mph, there is a whistling noise coming from the drivers side mirror. I have isolated the noise coming from between the chrome and bottom of the mirror housing. While driving, if I place my finger on the edge of the mirror...

Hi Johnstac, I started using Sentry Mose last week. Plugged in a 32 GB micro card and everything works fine. Perhaps the record button is not activated. Make sure the little red light is on with the camera icon. Just tap it and the red light will show the card is recording. Can’t think of...

It is a 2018 build. Really don’t care about the year since there really is no “model” year with Tesla. Was told would be months for a 2019 build. Glad I did what I did since the midrange is no longer available.

I purchased a metallic gray mid range about a month ago with the white interior. It is sooooo worth the wait. Makes the car stand out from the rest of the 3s out there. Was crazy quick availability. Ordered it in a store on a Tuesday. Picked it up the following Tuesday. Hang in there guys...

Was on a 45 mile drive on a highway doing 70 with advanced autopilot engaged. For three instances when I crossed under three different overpasses, the car suddenly dropped to 45 MPH. Scared the crap out of me. Out of nowhere, hard braking which lasted a few seconds. Thank goodness the cars...

Awesome! Thank you.

My delivery yesterday was originally scheduled for home delivery. Receive that information via email. I called the store and indicated I preferred a in-store pick upd orientation. They had no problem with that request. Glad I did it because they were a few things my original orientation person...

Thank you so much Arif for your message! You got the ball rolling for me regarding asking for a refund.

Thanks everyone for the support I’m getting with my new car yesterday. Drove her to work today in typical commuter congestion. Love the ride with the auto pilot! Truly amazing. Regarding the $1100, had no clue about it until Arif sent a message late last night. Did not see it till this...

Hey littleweep! Pick mine up today! Just incredible! Took longer than I thought for the orientation because they gave a fresh rookie to explain the car. She did not know important details. Got her boss to help out. Car had 14 miles on delivery. Now has 30. Sleeping in the garage. The car that...

Getting close. Picked my excact car from inventory last Tuesday. Picking it up this Tuesday! Midnight silver metallic mid range, black and white premium interior, 19 sport wheels, enhanced autopilot. The anticipation is killing me!

Thank you for your message. Will have to see what surprises are in store when I pick it up.

Hey EV E, would you be willing to share the name of the company? I understand if you choose not to. No way to send a PM here.

Thanks for your response StealthP3D. Should have done this with the full tax credit. Procrastination can be painful, but gonna get in the game. Hope my vehicle is as maintenance free as yours. Now. Just need to find some reasonable financing.

Thank you so much for your response. Going to us the car mainly for local driving with an occasional trip to Orlando from the Boca area.

i have been a long time Tesla fan and put a deposit down last year on my birthday waiting to get the base model. The more I read about how many cool items may be eliminated from that model, gonna pull the trigger on a MR with a few upgrades. Taxes in Florida jumped to 7% in January and...

Thanks Tiger. Prefer the standard battery.....I think. Don’t make very many long trips requiring the extra mileage. But then again, don’t want buyers remorse.

Thank you Ross! Gonna be an interesting year reading about the car!

Haha! Sounds good Seattle! Hopefully we will interior choices by then.

Hi all! New to all of this. Placed an M3 reservation on my birthday, June 14th! I know I may not have delivery until I am a year older, but that is okay. Will give me time to do figure this all out. FYI, can I post a pic in my profile? Can’t seem to find any links to do that. Thanks for any...
