Every few weeks when it’s dirty. Every 10k mile, sometimes I forget. 121k miles on my model 3 2019. Still going strong. Charge to 80%.

I wish people would stop obsessing about the battery. My LR rwd 2019 model 3 I’ve had since 27 miles on the odometer probably has degradation but frankly it works, gets my to road trips and all that and I charge primarily at home with supercharging few times a month. Reminds of macrumors posters...

its crazy how long our brake pads can last if no defects arise. Even my Prius with 333k on the clock has original pads.

yup

118k and 4 years later my brake pads look basically new. I need to do the brake lub and brake flush in the next few weeks.

Ramps.

Priorities man

Checking in. 114k in my 19 LR RWD I should restate that I do wheel squeak at low speeds. I need to check ny brakes and lube things up and inspect the area before sending it to the service station. Also did my first mod and took out the wood panel to add CarPlay. All in all easy mod.

Yah how much.

Checking in. 114k in my 19 LR RWD.

People act like it's bad to do easy maintenance on your car. What happen to American DIY conquering hostile lands to reach the Pacific. lol Dammit I'll mess up my plumbing just so I can take a trip to Home Depot, then have leaky pipes and finally hire a pro.

It went away for me the next day.

I like doing stuff like this on my car. It's an easy project and takes 15 mins for me to do, and most of the 15 is finding my tools. This special screw allow me to eliminate the hex tool and my small wrench. I will only need a plastic panel pry tool, and that it!

its just makes it easy to change with out annoying tools. It doesn't improve filter efficiency or anything like that but as someone who has done filter changes in the last 4 years, anything to make it easier is worth it.

Yikes who is the company? Are they based in LA? I think I know them.

No it’s not covered it’s a wearable item. I swear you think this is a Tesla owners first car.

Apparently 65% lol. There’s a Tesla charger near by and before 11am it’s $0.23. I started charging there once a week even though I have home charging because it’s way cheaper. I typically try to run my battery down to 20% and supercharge to 80%. When our solar gets activated I’ll charge there...

Jeeez so what’s the OP current realize now with the price drop. Tesla loves to piss of its customers.

It happens on your drivers side seat?

ok it just went away this AM lol

I just got this error today. I took a nap in the front passenger seat during lunch break and extended the back rest all the way down. Got the error immediately when I started the car. I figure it's a quality issue in how they place the sensors together. Thanks for this tread I have something...

Yea you all are right. 80k.

Darn so if I order the performance Y I with tow package and its over 56k, then I can't get the rebate?

Ha! That happens a lot when supercharging. But it is weird but it's normal. When just driving in socal and the whether typical moderate climate, and charging at home I don't hear this.. it's pretty rare again only when driving and it's cold outside like under 40 F.

That's a great idea replacing the screws

I can’t imagine it’s horrendously different cabin temperatures. It might be a 5 degree difference but that should be ok for a dog. I grew up in a 1990 mini van with three rows and ac only in the front and we survive lol.

I test drove the y performance last week. It was also Amazing. I love the look. My only concern is suspension comfort. I’m trying to erase the deficits I have with my model 3 with my next Tesla purchase if ever.

You realize Airbags are going to feel Ike mike Tyson at his peak just punch you right? They’re not fluffy pillows. So if you’re posting this and you’re fine and you didn’t hit anything inside the car consider yourself lucky. Airbags are gonna hurt like hell.

I’ve used it twice an Airbnb when there were no chargers. It handy for those rare times. I would carry it if I know it’s a remote location. Other road trips where I’m in close proximity to superchargers I leave it at home.

As someone who’s car get hit 2x don’t in the last 2 months don’t bother with ppf. It sure as hell didn’t save my car. Seems to me there’s more people on their phones and people being more dickish since Covid so just save the money drive the damn car and enjoy it. It a depreciating asset not an...

It’s happened to me as a freak out event once a year but I always reboot to fix it.

I have a 512gb ssd with usb-c to usb-a. No issues.

Lol yah the camera thinks there’s dirt or rain or obstruction. It’s kinda sensitive. Clean your cameras is how to fix this.

Yah I was worried about the charge port but it seems like it’s ok. The suspension grinding on uneven surfaces worries me. I got a letter from the guys insurance so I’ll call tomorrow.

Thanks for the info all. Good to have info to make an informed decision.

Any competent shop could handle that right not just Tesla certified? How about the electronics in the bumper? I just parking sensors is their radar there?

So State Farm representatives said the other part is 100% at fault. I was parked. They backed into me (all on video as proof). State Farm gave me an estimate. Are you saying if the repair cost more the State Farm quote, State Farm will charge the guys insurance the difference? I’ll call State...

Ya it was like in terminator 2 when the terminator was hit with a pipe and its head was split. That’s how the bmw looked lol. Anyway you think they won’t even replace the panel they will just cut it?

Suv back into me at 5mpg causing 10k in damages. Incident caught on sentry mode. I was speaking to a Tesla certified repair center and they said State Farm rates are too low and given that, I may be have repair the car and pay the excess amount. There’s a weird noise when I drive over uneven...

What year do you have?

For most part so far it’s been reliable mechanically for 101k miles. It’s the electrics for me that’s the issue. Seat inflator broke early(fixed), steering wheel adjusted stopped work (fixed), steering wheel started clicking (fixed), passenger vents rattles (on/off-not fixed but not catering...

I think my rwd long range needs tires every 40k for me. Our cars our way heavier and put instant torque requiring more tires than the regular ice car. Too bad cars needs tires haha also wipers are super easy very simple to do with no tools required and takes literally 30 seconds.

Ahh Tesla bugs. Fact of life unfortunately. I one time had no screen working for 45 mins until several reboots on a road trip. You can’t open the frunk or glove box (thanks cost cutting) when the screen is dead or know your signal lights are on. Anyways yah.. Tesla rule alright

AAA saved my butt when my Tesla got stuck in the mood back in 2019. Saved my ass. Worth it to renew each year for $80.

If I get my suspension fixed at Tesla will my 2019 get the softer suspension? I frankly want a comfy ride.

Try big brand tires.

I’m now 99790! 2019 model 3

by far the most helpful post I've read in the past year lol

Really I never use chill mode. I'll try it. Great tip. Wish the car would be chill automatically in stop in go.

I get this too! I feel I need to wait two seconds press the brake then shift to drive.
