    Tesla mistake on Purchase agreement - How long to get refund?

    Same here - only $110 mistake. Took about 2 months, but I got it.

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    My '21 was quoted at 29K -- needless to say, I passed. If I could get 31 for it I would let it go.

    Received 2024.14.8 updates without FSD trial

    I'm sure they're waiting for this last batch of free FSD to expire. Mine will expire on June 13th. Then you'll probably be next.

    Would you Purchase a model Y Again?

    You think that's bad - I'm 6 hours from the nearest service center. Buy again. If I could sell my 21 Red Model YLR with 28K today or in the very near future, you bet I'd jump on a new one!

    Model Y Reverse UFO Sound Change/Disable

    If you disconnect the speaker the car will know. You can buy a by-pass resistor kit that will disable it. Many discussions about this issue - do a search.

    Will the free FSD trial convince you to purchase FSD?

    I traveled through Salt Lake City during rush hour yesterday, and the car did much better than I would have (to tell the truth.) It had to navigate onto several different interchanges, and I didn't have to worry about taking any wrong exits. In fact I didn't even have to think about it! I...

    Best tires for 2024

    Not to get off subject but .. .. .. I noticed that when I had new tires put on, that there were no tape weights on the inside of the rim - only on the outside. Is this a new standard? Even the OEM tires and wheels didn't have any on the inside. When I used to balance tires - the machine would...

    Model Y Reverse UFO Sound Change/Disable

    Not so quick fix - our Rav4Hybrid - jumped the speaker with a resistor. I know, I know - shouldn't defeat it - so save the lectures . . .

    Model Y Reverse UFO Sound Change/Disable

    That's what I did. A layer of bubble wrap and black duct tape. Nearly invisible. Tesla Service Center didn't care either.

    After latest software update, swiping up on small music window no longer shows "Favorites," etc.

    THIS: Tap the 'search' icon on the music player. It will pull up a search bar -- then 'X' it out, and the favorites will be behind it...

    Refused delivery on MYP

    You think that's bad.... It's been a few years ago - but ---- My wife had a car that was a couple of years old that she used for work, and I had a classic that I drove back and forth to work. We both agreed that we would sell which ever one first. She went to work and sold it a few hours...

    FSD free trial

    Mine just updated to 2024.14.6 ver.12.3.6 about an hour ago. Got a text from Tesla about 15 minutes ago granting me FSD(supervised) just in time for my trip next week.

    Hankook ION EVO AS SUV - Model Y Tire Review

    I've only got 700 miles on them so far. There is a slight improvement in range, but it's really to soon to tell. I had a slight vibration that started at 65 mph and up through 85 mph. I took it in yesterday to have them check the balance. One tire was spot on, and the other three had too...

    FSD free trial

    I've used v11 on a loaner - it was just OK. I can do the trip without FSD, and won't jump the gun and subscribe early.

    Is premium paint more durable?

    My color is tri-coat red. When you get a rock chip or scratch it will be showing the under coat of white. And the front bumper will show black. Sorry to burst your bubble. Like my car the Red was an extra $2000, but I don't think it's any more durable than any of the other Tesla's paint jobs.

    New MY order with cracked windscreen

    Ya, that's the way it goes. 20 miles on our new Model Y -- rock chip exactly in drivers line of sight. Learned to live with it.

    Paint pealing next to plastic part above tire by the passenger door.

    Looking right above where the paint is missing - it almost looks as if there is masking line that is a little thicker with pain. Also it looks as if someone has scratched or roughened up the plastic where the paint is missing..

    Tire losing air

    Tire losing air

    I had a slow leak also in my passenger rear tire. It lasted for about a year. It would leak about a pound a week, and sometimes would go month. Lately it would leak 3~4 pounds in a day and the next day it would not leak at all. I could never find a puncture in the tire or any rhyme or...

    MYLR - Do the wells in the trunk and frunk get hot on long drives?

    We don't use the frunk very often, but I think it would remain about ambient temperature. So whatever the outside temperature is it would be the same. We use the frunk more in the winter when we have a frozen goods for our 90 mile trip home from Costco. The felt lined sub trunk seems to remain...

    Backwards tire?

    Looking at your avatar -- I will take your word for 'gospel.' Thanks for the reply!

    Backwards tire?

    I never rotate from side to side but always front to back. I used to be under the impression that the tire took a 'set' to the rotation, and to reverse the rotation it would loosen the steel belts within. But that may have been 'old school' ideas.

    Driver Passenger Looks the same to me.

    Backwards tire?

    It's like looking for "Where's Waldo." Very little difference except with the addition of the Date code is missing on the driver side.

    Backwards tire?

    Good Idea ! I'll go out and take a photo of both of them to compare.

    Backwards tire?

    I never have flipped them on the rims before. When I rotate - it's always front to back. I'm just trying to decide whether or not to leave well enough alone.

    Backwards tire?

    I've already put 200 miles on them. Sooooooo Should I leave well enough alone, or should I have the tire 'reversed?' Any real tire experts - please step in.

    Backwards tire?

    I live about 30 miles from the tire shop. I'm not in much of a hurry to get the tire mounted 'correctly.' I have dealt with the same owner for over 30 years. He's a great guy and has treated me very well. That said, I didn't want to make his work load any more of a burden on a Friday...

    Backwards tire?

    Types of balance: Symmetrical balance (or Symmetry) means that the work of art is the same on one side as the other, a mirror image of itself, on both sides of a center line. Asymmetrical balance (or Asymmetry) means that the two halves of the work of art are different, however, try to create...

    Quicksilver in the order form now [in the US - as of 05.03.2024]

    My favorite color. Just got an estimate for my red '21 with 26k miles - $28,800 - $1000 less than Carvana. I don't know if I can bite that bullet.

    Backwards tire?

    I have a Rav4H that has directional tires and it has arrows pointing to the forward rotation. And I didn't realize the difference between Non directional and symmetrical.

    Yes, the front left has the date on the inside. See my post #5.
