Wow $34k seems pretty good! I just kind of assumed my 2021 MYP is worth less than $20k at this point, LOL! If the new version was coming out now, and my car was worth $34, I'd be seriously tempted.

@KoenMertens I don't see anyone doubting that you hate your Tesla and it has been a terrible experience for you, but couldn't you extend the same courtesy to those of us who genuinely enjoy our Model Y and not peg us as having low standards? I mean, I have regular access to a Volvo C40 and a...

My 2021 MYP has fit my lifestyle like a glove. I drive my kids and dog around a lot (around 24k miles/year), and the car has been awesome. I did install a set of MPP adjustable coil overs this year (for the hell of it, as I didn't really need them), so it's now an even better daily driver. My...

First wash at home of the summer:

I didn't realize that you can press the right scroll wheel button to reply texts until I saw this thread. I rarely use the text function in cars, but when I did, I would hit the on-screen button as the OP did. I will say that sometime in the past few months this on-screen button started to not...

I made a service appointment in March to do the brake cleaning/lube. Initially it was at my local SC, but a few days later they changed it to a mobile service. I ended up having an independent shop do it for me as I was getting my springs/shocks changed to an adjustable set there. The shop I...

My statement was based on EAP currently not being available as a standalone purchase. But yes, previously it was part of EAP.

Auto Park is part of FSD. My 21 MYP did not have Auto Park available for most of April during the free trial period. I got 2024.3.25 during the final week of the trial and got to use Auto Park for a few days before free FSD expired. I'm pretty sure only cars with Ryzen CPU and USS gets the...

I did get the email on 5/1 saying my FSD is ending "tomorrow". My car indicates FSD expiration date of 5/2. But so far on 5/3, my FSD is still active for some reason. Anyone else got some overtime on the free FSD? When I rented FSD last year, it went away precisely when it was supposed to...

So, my FSD trial was suppose to end on May 2nd. It was still on my car yesterday so I thought it ends after the day. It is now May 3rd and FSD is still on my car and working. In the software page it says FSD expires on May 2nd. Did Elon maybe fired too many people and somebody forgot to...

I have found FSD V12 to be very impressive. A vast improvement over V11 I rented last year. I can now maybe see FSD actually being solved at some point in the future with new hardware. That said, I used it less and less as the month went on, so I probably won't be missing it much. I'll...

The free FSD trial has been fun. I'm on my last day and I have to say I'm impressed with V12. For me it's been a night and day difference compared to V11 I rented last year, which was borderline unusable in the cities. That said, I found my self using FSD less and less as the month...

Is Atomic Wheels fairly new? I did not know about them before. Their wheels certainly look good and had I been in the market now, I'd probably go with one of their designs instead of the Martians. I was looking at getting bronze colored wheels last year and Martian was running a decent sale...

Man that sucks. Sorry you've encountered an issue with your wheels. I guess it would be pretty difficult to prove "manufacturing defect". Have you gained a better idea on where the sound is coming from and how it's being produced?

Well, I don't think the range necessarily "needs" to go up for people without home charging, but I think it would be more ideal, simply because they would need to visit fast chargers fewer times. Each visit would probably be a bit longer, but at least for me that would beat more frequent...

I think a 400~600 mile range is more ideal for people who don't own homes and can't do overnight level 2 charging. For me, who has a level 2 charger at home, the current MYP range have been more than enough, and I live in a cold weather state. In two and a half years I've driven 60k miles...

I doubt Tesla would install aftermarket shocks, but I guess it doesn't hurt to check. Jesse at MPP told me that the Model Y's suspension setup is very similar to an Audi A4 and shops that work on European cars should have no issues installing suspension parts. I had a shop that specialized in...

Looks like my Intel Atom car will start to get left behind on software updates. Kind of sucks, but I guess the current UI and software feels more or less perfected to me, so there's not a whole lot more I could ask for. I would rather that Tesla put a bow on an older car's software at some...

I went from an ICE into my MYP as my first EV and have never actually used creep mode. I found it pretty easy to modulate the accelerator pedal to get the car from stop to a creeping speed. I guess the key with an EV accelerator pedal is a light touch, both pressing and lifting.

I went into it knowing that the car was unlikely to hit the EPA range rating unless it's in absolutely perfect conditions. I think the best range I've ever observed from my car was probably around 250 miles on a full charge. While that's quite a bit below the 303 mile EPA estimated range (in...

How often do you use your frunk? Do you think it's something that happened due to frequent use or just a random thing? Either way, not very comforting to know that this sort of thing could happen, LOL!

Cool, that's probably better than using a typical car repair shop like I did then. Did you keep the stock ride height?

Which shop did you end up using to install your Ohlins? I decided to get the MPP comfort adjustable coil overs a few weeks ago and ended up using Eurotech to do the install. I have it at almost the softest setting to start and the ride does seem improved, taking the edge off of vibrations from...

The auto wipers seemingly have been getting worse lately. They’ve never been great, but have been mostly acceptable to me. Last week it was so bad during some light to medium rain I took it off auto and switched it to level 2 speed for the first time. Previously it had at least been tolerable...

I rented FSD for a couple of months last year and thought it sucked, being kind of annoying on a semi-busy highway and nearly unusable in the city. I've used V12 for two days now, and I am fairly impressed so far. The car's driving action seem far more natural than before, and I think I've...

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like they’re talking about the compression/rebound settings. I plan to adjust them myself after some break-in time.

Do you know what kind of adjustment they are talking about? I just had the MPP adjustable coil overs installed last week too. The shop I used worked on many Teslas but didn't tell me to bring it back for adjustment.

I recently got a set of Mountain Pass adjustable coil overs installed on my car by a local shop. Per MPP, the MY suspension setup is very similar to an Audi A4, so if you have experience with installing them on Audis, I assume the MY would be pretty straight forward for you. I did get an...

I guess Tesla must have information that we don’t for them to have the $12k price and no-transfer policy. To me if FSD is say $3-5k and transferable to a new Tesla, they will get much higher take rate and tie people to their brand for much longer. The downside for Tesla is that they don’t get...

That actually sounds like a decent enough situation without a home charger. If you can pair supercharging with Target runs, that will save you a lot of time. Seems like you've got a pretty good idea about how it will work, so I would say go for it!

Mine is showing the same type of wear at 2.5 years and I'm out of warranty already. It doesn't bother me yet but we'll see what it looks like in a year then decide if I want to swap it out. If I do, it might not be an OEM spoiler and I'm certainly not going to have Tesla install it. I had one...

Did you switch to one of the other default sounds before switching back to an updated USB sound? Try playing an updated sound through the boombox to see if it plays? I haven't changed mine for a while so I don't know if mine has this issue, but I was changing the sound a lot (at least 6 or 7)...

I love my MYP and I feel like EVs are superior enough to ICE that I'd drive one even if the fuel cost is the same. However, I think having home charging is a HUGE difference maker in EV ownership. It's almost like owning a different product when you have home L2 charging compared to not having...

I got mine from Abstract Ocean, but I think they are all probably made by the same manufacturer. I would make sure returns are easy so if your brother don't like them when he receives them, they're easy to return.

If you do put up a front plate, perhaps look into one of the alternate plate designs such as the new black-out plates. MN finally offer sports team themed plates too if you're into any of that. I'm pretty tempted by the Vikings and Twins plates, but I currently have the Loon plate, which I...

You should be able to schedule a service for CCS retrofit in you app under "Service" now. A few of us have gotten the retrofit done in the past week. See the later posts in this thread for some experiences with it.

I feel like half the Teslas I see around the Twin Cities doesn't have front plate on. I don't have a problem with having a front plate on but did get a quick bandit to mount mine on the front, which I think looks slightly better than the factory mount.

Yeah, I agree that something like this should have been included with basic AP in the first place. For someone like me who have been using S3XY buttons for almost 2 years, it was a free firmware update to get continuous AP, so that was pretty awesome. I think it’s as nice as anything we’ve...

Ok, the picture below makes the glowing part look much much brighter than in real life. But like I said, it’s visible enough in very dark conditions for me to find the handle.

I tried taking some in the dark pictures, but it appears much brighter in the pictures than in real life, so it's not of much use. It is visible in pitch dark, so to me it does the job it's supposed to.

If you're only interested in auto lane change, instead of paying $6k for EAP, I'd suggest doing some research into S3XY buttons. They added a functionality early this year called "continuous autopilot", where AP re-engages after you signal and move into the target lane. It doesn't move the car...

I also did the home L2, EA, and Supercharger trifecta and they all worked fine, so the ECU update is a success. The 8 stall EA station actually had 7 cars charging when I got there and of course the open one didn't work. So I went to the Supercharger before going back to the EA station and the...

Mine just got done. Took him about 20-25 minutes. I was charged $350 + tax. I'll be off to test at EA and Supercharger (to make sure it still works) soon.

When I first got the car, I got flashed by oncoming car's high beam relatively frequently even though I was not using my high beams. I figured it was because my headlights were aimed too high so I went into that menu to adjust the height down a couple of ticks. Since then I don't think I've...

Mine is this morning as well. I have CCS and supercharger station within 3 miles of my work place so I’ll be testing them out shortly after installation.

I always have mine in sport mode. Most of the time I'm pretty chill with my driving, but I like to have all the power available at all times. The only times I've used Chill mode is when driving to an HPDE event and trying to conserve as much battery as possible while getting there.

You're scaring me, as I bought my 2021 MYP in Sept of 2021 and have 58k miles now. LOL! I haven't had any suspension creaks, but according to some around here, it's inevitable that the control arm bushings are going to be shot somewhere between 30~60k miles. I'm about to order some MPP...

I got a TSportline set off Amazon to put on a set of summer wheels. They work just fine.

I don’t have any in the dark pictures but do have one in my garage from when I first got them about a year ago. I’ll post some pictures of them now below it. If I remember I'll take a picture of them tonight in the dark. I think since I got them, I might have looked for the handles in the dark...

I put those glow in the dark handle stickers on mine. They actually work fairly well, but does start to get a little bit janky after a year. Not bad enough yet for me to remove them, but eventually I'll probably remove them and put on a new set, unless I find something better.
