    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    I had a similar situation a couple years ago. After about a month oder returned. I cleaned again but used 2 cans KLIMA (if foam overflowed I let it run down then finished the can) and followed the full procedure on the can (wait 20 minutes then fan open high for 2 minutes open all vents and on...

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    I have a 3 and a Y. On the 3 I'm trying VION HEPA filters. They claim 90% better flow (offsetting the smaller frontal area of the filter) but most important the foam on edge is only a thin strip on the leading (intake) edge of the filter. I surmise that design leaves the drain channel clear...

    UI_a112 - USB device malfunction - I/O Error

    Brake maintenance

    The guide pins get corroded and they clean them and lubricate in areas of salted roads. Every 2 years Tesla wants to check the brake fluid for moisture and they use a test strip for that. I would perform that during the 2 year fluid check just as preventive maintenance. They also check brake...

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    2 cans of Klima and new filters. Follow directions and do 2 full treatments raining each can. I do this every 6 months. Also run with recirculate off unless really needed. The fan runs for 15-20 minutes when parked so leaving recirculate off when parking also helps. Lastly, try one of these...

    Longer term Ohmmu experiences?

    Temperature most likely the reason. I had NO RESETS with the heated model. In NE it dips to the single digits but below 40 heating is needed. PM me I can add some new info.

    UI_a112 - USB device malfunction - I/O Error

    FWIW, today was the first day in a while no UI_a112 messages. None for 30 hours. Makes me think it occurs during a data transfer to Tesla during this FSD data collection push.

    UI_a112 - USB device malfunction - I/O Error

    FWIW my 2020 M3 had the 2 USB-A ports in the forward pedestal and intel processor. I get the Ui_a112 messages on waking. My 2022 MY with the glove box port and AMD processor with a 256gb Samsung flash gets no messages. Both cars have 2024.3.15.

    Tire installation

    Any tire shop as long as they know where to place the jacks. Discount Tire or Americas Tire should know how. The 3 has been around a while. Also TireRack.com with would have mobile or recommended shops. In that case you order the tires and ship to installer (or TireRacks mobile pick them up)...

    M3 waking more often with version 2024.2.4 or 2024.2.6 firmware

    I was working with service and they relayed to the app development team. It was an app issue in that case and they put out 2 revisions within the weekend and the 2nd one corrected the issue. I have a 3 and Y and they both were waking every 6-8 minutes then sleeping again. I timed it...

    M3 waking more often with version 2024.2.4 or 2024.2.6 firmware

    FWIW a year or so back with an app update the car would wake every 10 minutes or 20 24/7. Reported and an app update was issued. It was believed if calendar sync is on it wakes to sync the calendar. That was then but something to check.

    "Proactive" 12v battery replacement - good idea or overkill?

    Try charge or test the new battery to make sure no faults. When a battery in installed the car initially stays awake for 6 hours chasing the new battery and testing. May be another issue. When the battery was changed did you completely depower the car? One needs to open the driver and RR...

    "Proactive" 12v battery replacement - good idea or overkill?

    Go to service notifications on the main page in service mode and check for messages. Look up the reference number. The message generated should have supporting information. BTW the Clarios battery is a Varta B32 I believe. Also in the Tesla app, you can ask a question by making a service...

    M3 problem - dies when it is frosty.

    The current Ohmmu for model 3 is heated and works at low temperatures however, if your 12 volts dies after a week twice there is something else. I would access the service mode and see what messages are present to help point to the cause. In service mode, you can view the LV system to see if...

    Smelly stinky socks / mold in Model 3 AC

    If the intake screen (way down inside the opening) is free from leaves then the condenser may have mold. A foam AC cleaning like Klima or Kool-it will help. I use 2 cans Klima when I replace my filters every 6 months. No stink.

    I only saw V29 following the instructions for the special app to install V.29. Once in stalled (takes about 30 seconds, one must install the configuration for your car (i.e. model 3). The reason is the firmware V29 is used on most of the batteries so it then must be configured to the Model 3...
