I got a quote for $13.5k for a minor dent to the quarter panel. Crazy part is that Geico refuses to pay the labor rates quoted by the body shop. Body shop refuses to paint a Tesla at the same rate as other cars. I am stuck between Geico and body shop refusing to budge. (for an incident with no...

Has this been shared here?

True, that may explain it to some extent. In my case, I don't charge my phone in the car on a daily basis as I have a very short commute. Also, I have a habit developed by using phones of yesteryears that needed to be charged 100% for extended battery life. I always charge overnight so that I...

Any specific reason, to take the phone out of your pocket? Unless you have a tablet sized phone :) Enable the honk on lock. That way you will hear the car lock as you walk away. Post pictures of the car on social media every day. That way you will check for "likes and comments" all the time on...

I have a similar setup with a SolarCity Inverter and a extension panel inside the garage. I had a spare breaker on the outside panel, so I was able to get a Nema 14-50 installed for $400 (including parts, 50A breaker, cables, housing etc). I asked for referrals on social media, and Nextdoor. A...

What about the time needed to drive to the gas station? What about looking for the gas station with the competitive price? What about waiting in line at Costco Gas? What about paying ATM fee at ARCO gas?

This shade for RVs fits very well on Model3. I had to cut a small notch for the rear view mirror. https://www.amazon.com/Camco-45162-SunShield-Reflective-Window/dp/B003VASGWK

El Centro, CA Yuma, AZ

The Bluetooth phone and media audio profiles always connect fine, I have never seen any issues with any phone I have used. (HFP, and A2DP profiles). The issue is with BLE Key management, the "Phone Key" in the Tesla app should say "Connected", to be able to open the door. I have observed that...

You got that right! Charging at Qualcomm is horrible. I drove to Phoenix and back this weekend. There was not a single Tesla charging in any of the SCs (but for mine). El Centro, Yuma, Gila Bend, 100% of them available.

In my case, yes. San Diego I15 southbound, car pool lane, at the Mira Mesa transit station overpass. I have to be ready to press the accelerator, or cancel AP. I have sent Bug Report twice to Tesla.

The B pillar has an autopilot camera,. If that can do an iris scan or a fingerprint scan, that would be cool.:D

Is there a thread on how to do this? Any voice command I do, it seems to go a search in the browser and show random results. While playing slacker, If I say "Play FM radio 89.5", does a search of FM Radio 89.5 and plays a random streaming channel. Just saying "Play FM radio" - does not switch...

Not knowing exactly what button is updated to what functionality (exactly when)is a cause for concern. In 18.13 what should I expect with respect to brakes? It is not like anyone has a test track to see how things behave, before driving on public streets. I feel like I am at the mercy of other...

Oh boy, in one of the updates - they have mapped the scroll wheel on the right side of steering to increase/decrease the cruise control speed. While in autopilot, I accidentally caused the wheel to rotate, and the set speed jumped by 5mph. I immediately cancelled Autopilot, and tested the...

Sure, navigate from CA 92128 to Dave & Busters 2931 Camino Del Rio N, San Diego, CA 92108

Yeah, this must be it. I also found another issue with the Nav/map. When I tried to Navigate to Dave & Busters which is directly under I805, it declared "you have reached your destination" on I805, some 100ft up above the actual destination. Thankfully, I am very familiar with the roads here...

Yeah, that sounds similar to what I see here. This is on a a super flat straight stretch car pool lane where people do 80+ all the time, no need to change speed limit, or set lock. This is a dangerous bug. The speed limit is recognized to be 65 within 10 meters, and I can set my cruise speed to...

Can you check if the speed limit disappeared when this happened? On I15 car pool lane in San Diego, near Mira Mesa Blvd, the speed limit of 65 disappears and the Autosteer speed limit goes from the 72 (that I had set) to 45mph. I need to watch for that and immediately takeover the throttle to...

I have had my Model3 for more than a month now. Still haven't had the courage to take my yellow English lab for a ride. We have a second car which is a larger SUV with a weathertech cargo liner, that is dedicated for our dog. My daughter brushes our lab on a weekly basis but he still sheds a ton...

Not lots.....duh! Connectivity LOGS. On the few instances my phone has failed to unlock it has been after I have connected my phone over Bluetooth to legacy Bluetooth devices to do file transfer, and to older Bluetooth devices/speakers. Today I rebooted my phone after connecting to a legacy...

Speaking for myself, when it always works there's not much to dive into. On my phone it is never the signal strength. I have checked the 2.4ghz band by my garage, there is nothing unusual. On many occasions the phone connects/pairs. It is the key exchange that fails to connect. I have done...

Just wanted to update that with 2018.18.3 and after having followed the procedure I mentioned here to pair - I am a happy camper. The phone unlock is working great.

In my case, the 2018.18.3 update has been great. Autopark used to prematurely abort on my car. Most of the time the Parking spot and the blue Parking start button would never show up on the screen. I had filed a ticket with Tesla support, and they had asked me to call their phone support line...

This problem went away on it's own. I have not seen this message ever since I posted this message.

I have been messing around with the settings, and below is what I had to do to make the phone unlock work 100% of the time. I have the 2018.18.3 sw update Before you start, make sure you keep any other phone with proximity lock, away, or turn it off. Keep the problematic phone with you and start...

I have a Samsung Galaxy S8 and it unlocks perfectly 100% of the time. My wife has a Samsung Galaxy S7 edge and its fails to unlock 90% of the time. Is there anything I can do to make this better?

After the update, I see a message that says "Parking brake needs service. Contact Tesla Service". Anyone else seeing this?

Is this possible for you? How did you do this? I have to switch the profile between me and my wife all the time.

While talking on my phone if I unlock and get into my M3, I see that the Bluetooth connection is established, and the audio on the phone (little earphone speaker) stops. The voice call audio is not heard through the car speakers though, the music/radio continues. I am forced to turn on the...

Mine happens with 2018.14.13 as well. The entire audio path is messed up. Clicking sound with FM radio as well. Hope they fix it soon!

Not sure if it helps, but this member from SC has noted his Tesla purchase and delivery experience here. South Carolina Purchase and Delivery Experience

The AP (Auto Pilot) engages just fine, and drives just fine (in auto pilot mode) on regular streets. The error messages went away after I powered off the car. The issue I see is just with Auto park feature.

I wanted to see the auto park feature, but I could not get it to work. After my Model3 identifies a parking spot, I hit the "Start" button. The auto park operation starts, the car starts backing up, steering wheel starts to rotate, then it aborts the operation, and the message "Service needed"...

Glamisduner, The 12 cents rate you mention is for excess generation? Or, is it for anything generated by the solar (day time)?. I am on Time of Use (DR-SES-G) plan, I cant figure out what they are paying me at what time. All the online material is about what it costs to buy from them. I have...

I refreshed the screen on my computer after uploading the pics from my phone. The numbers were available after 15 minutes. This was the number they honored, no questions asked.

It was an event less trade in process at Tesla. After uploading the pics, the estimate I got was around the "very good" KBB value. The tires were worn, and there were many minor scratches around my Prius from regular use. There was no mention of any inspection, or any adjustments to the trade in...

They will send you an estimated price sheet before scheduling delivery. It has all the govt. fees, (title fees, tire fees, etc). In San Diego it took them 3 weeks after configuration, to schedule delivery. I asked for an estimate and got it immediately. My delivery is scheduled for day after...

Can I set a battery level that the car needs to have by a certain time each morning? Charge after 4am, and make sure there is 150miles range by 7am. I dont want to lose so much in vampire drain, or be left with less than ideal juice.

How does the Tesla tradein value compare to carmax ? I am considering a trade in of my Prius.

I do not understand why people are quoting such high numbers for a NEMA 14-50 outlet. A 50A breaker costs ~$40. There are many electricians willing to install for $300 in labor. If one is interested they can go to the city office and do the permit work themselves. Personally, I would spend more...

I had reserved online on Apr 1st. Non-owner. Configured on March 22nd. Mine is red with aero wheels. Estimated delivery date is Apr 18th. Ordered the wheel cap kit today. Expecting delivery for the wheel cap kit is after 8 weeks.

This has probably been shared before - here is a good list of all the processors and software running on Teslas. Undocumented | TeslaTap

Sorry, I was responding to the first post where they there was talk of turning off BT/Bluetooth to save power. Sure if the Phone/app is sending commands to the car to operate things, that can cause power drain. I guess I need to load a debug build on my Android phone and look at the ADB events...

On a cellphone a Bluetooth chip draws 0.03mA in standby. When you are streaming music through a BT connection you can expect a power draw of 0.10mA to 0.15mA. Even if all of the entertainment system kept all of the multimedia electronics turned on it should not be draining power that can be...

Thank you for your response. It would be awesome if they had a delivery estimate progress bar, like Domino's pizza. They already give us the VIN number, they know exactly what they are going to do with it. This way I can line up the trade-in and the funds to be right on time.

Hello! My first post here. What is the current wait time between configuration and delivery? I configured 3 weeks back, my delivery location is San Diego.
