I started a software update on my M3 about 1h30 ago and the car is 100% unresponsive. I tried to open some doors but now I can't close them as the windows don't go down anymore. Can't open the trunk nor frunk. The center screen is black, nothing on it. Reboot with the two wheel buttons doesn't...

@Zoomit I definitely agree with the wind playing a huge part. On a big road trip recently, we had headwinds and my range kept dropping no matter how I drove. It was a bit scary as the Tesla route planner seemed to be way off no matter what. It's definitely something Tesla should take into...

The current price of M3 Long Range is $10K less than what I paid, so I'm not sure how I paid less back then. The tax benefits make it even if we don't factor in the AP. And I got all of the paint and gap issues from early production days too :) At some point, I considered selling my M3 to get a...

Basic AP is not free. As an early buyer of a Model 3 Long Range, I had to pay an extra $2,000 to get it, which I didn't do. It's been included with all cars for a little while now, but they increased the price of the car accordingly I think. Basically, early adopters didn't get rewarded for...

Thanks for your answers. Very helpful!

Same for me. Noticed this last week. Did you get it fixed? Any updates?

I said "clean", not "ugly" :-)

I just got back from a road trip with my M3 and spent hours cleaning it up. Sure, it's been through dust storms, icy roads covered in salt, and much more during the trip, yet I find Model 3 very hard to clean. Any tips, magical products or videos that would show me how to keep the car clean? Any...

One thing is that you also got to be a nice person in order to get good service. One time I dropped my M3 at a Tesla service center and was waiting for a loaner. The guy in line before me was being a real *ss with the Tesla employee. "I want a Model S loaner, not a Cadillac. You should have more...

I do see some of that. People want to race when the light turns green, or just try to pass me to "show off". Sometimes I'm in the mood to push a bit on the "gas" to make them disappear, sometimes not. Overall it's not even fun to race with those guys because they don't stand a chance :)

Looks similar to the issue I had. The Rocklin service center fixed it with no discussion. It took two weeks, but I got to drive a brand new Model S for free in the meantime, so I can't complain.

It's been 3-4 days and still there, in the ultra dry Sacramento climate, that's even more surprising, hence my concern.

Actually I see a tiny circle but no hole. That might be the issue. Perhaps my M3 is just missing those tiny holes. Could you post of picture of one of yours just to see where they're supposed to be?

First rain experience for my Model 3 and I can see humidity inside the left tail light, which is the only one to be impacted. Is it a common occurrence with Model 3? Note that mine was built during the record production week in July when they exceeded 5,000 Model 3s, so I'm not surprised to find...

It's included. Look at this pic from an updated Model 3 with v9: The cars in the blind spots show up in the bottom corners, which was not the case before (just like the motorcycle and trucks). Also I read that if you put your turn signal on, the line will turn red on the screen to tell you...

What I don't get about the delivery process is that there are some people in line for over 2 years now. I entered the line in March 2018, had to confirm my order with a down payment in June, once done the car was delivered two weeks later, despite a 2-3 months delivery estimate window at that...

Yeah but you need to live next to a supercharger for this to be attractive. I' ve had my M3 for almost 3 months now, never ever needed to supercharge, always done at home. In order to get the $1,000, you'd need to do supercharging only, which is really not convenient at all unless the...

This sounds right to me too. Once the car is charged, I unplug it either by waking the car from the app, or more often by just opening the driver door, then unplug.

I believe mine has paint issues too. At first I thought those were greasy spots like sweat or something, but they're still there after two car washes. Have an appointment with tesla nest week to figure it out:
