I’ve had a camera in there, the foam is getting where its supposed to go. I did break up a “pan tab” and sprinkle the bits in the bottom of the filter tray. The funk has not yet returned. We’ll see. Also, the drain in not clogged up. There is always a largeish puddle of water under the car...

I am curious if there is any sort of drip pan under the coils that could collect water and grow mold. They do make tablets that you can put into drip pans, and I would like to try these, but I’m not sure if the system actually has any sort of drip pan.

Well….. it’s an expanding foam that fills the entire cavity where the filters sit, so n it’s pretty impossible to miss anything, especially using TWO cans of cleaner.

Just to add a data point here… My car has been on auto since the day it rolled out of the dealership, I don’t ever use AC for cabin, overheat protection, although I do use cabin overheat protection, with just the outside air. My car gets funky, almost immediately after it’s cleaned, even with...

Guys… I have owned my Tesla for a couple years now and I have cleaned HVAC system a couple of different times with varying degrees of success. Tesla also cleaned it once under warranty, about two months after I got the car. It’s fairly humid here in Virginia, so I suspect that plays a large...

Well....I can't find the heated wheel on my android either. My car is a 2021 M3P. It used to have the option in the app, but not anymore.

Just can't understand the logic behind this!?

Is there a way to keep the visualization zoomed out? I basically use that in lieu of a traditional blind spot monitoring system. Even with my cameras on, I don't find that I can see around the model 3 as well as I would like to. None of that is an issue if you can keep the visualization zoomed...

When I bought my M3P, one wise forum member said "you didn't buy a $60,000.00 car, you bought a $30,000.00 car with a $30,000.00 battery" . Truer words have never been spoken. I absolutely love my M3P, but it's not built anywhere near as solid as the M4 BMW it replaced. That's just how it is...

I'd pay 2K for it.....but yeah.....probably not possible.

Ummmm.....you are bragging about 10 over? I won't mention the speed I hit the day I picked up my M3P. I'm sure it was totally irresponsible!

I have a 2021....hated the wheels at first. They have grown on me. I will say that I get compliments on the car...AND THE WHEELS all the time.

If this were true, it would be great. Maybe it does that at higher speeds, but I can say for sure that my 2021 does not do that in city traffic. I WISH it did. I'd be fine with the screen staying zoomed out, but can't figure out how to do that.

Everything you said is correct!

So what I want from my car is to let me know that some one is in the blind spot (even if it's not really "blind"), BEFORE I put on the signal. On my wife's Mazda, there's always an indicator in the mirror anytime there's an object in that area. On my 2021 M3, I never see an indication that...

M3P was slow to get off the line. Your reaction time was quite good!

Everything I have read indicates that the 20s will fit your car. The 18s won't bolt on to the performance, but the performance wheels should fit the SR+ just fine.

Guys, When I watch YouTube while waiting on my kids at practice for example, when I exit theater mode, the interior lights come on automatically. I also noticed that the headlights go off whenever you start up theater mode, or at least YouTube. So when you exit theater mode the interior lights...

Don't know....didn't see any issues in the bimmer! Smell went away though.

So....I had two different BMWs that had terrible odors from the HVAC. I'd change filters and the smell would go away, but it would return randomly from time to time. This was probably due to my short commute which would not run HVAC long enough to dry everything out. What ended up FINALLY...

Hey....the good thing here is that if it HAS to be repaired, the fit of the panels and the quality of the paint are likely to be BETTER than original 🤣 I have a 2021 M3P that I love, so please, no hate. That's just the truth of it!

Interesting.....maybe it only does it when it's producing/moving heat into the cabin.

My 2021 M3P has also done this a couple of times. Another weird thing it has done is to come on, then freeze. I'll shift into reverse, have the cameras up, start backing up, and realize that the camera images are frozen. Lucky I have not hit anything!

Update: I've had my car about 4 months. The weather has changed from cold (needing heat in the car), to hot (needing cooling in the car). The deep bass rumbling sound stopped at some point. Have not heard it for a couple of months. Beats me! The only change that I know of is that it got...

I'm just agreeing with you here! There's no way this was intentional. The car is silent otherwise and then you hear this subwoofer type sound that is SOMETIMES accompanied by vibrating steering wheel, pedals, etc. If they fixed this in the Model Y, you would have thought that they could have...

My car does this as well. There's NO WAY they intended this as "normal operation" . I some point, I am going to pull out the frunk and see what the heck is producing the vibration!

Well....what did they say about it?

I'll just chime in here. Same concern. I bought a set because of the high sides and installed them the day I picked up my car. They fit great, and are easy to clean. I don't like the logo either, BUT, you really don't see it once the mats are installed in the car. The only time I notice the...

Highly doubtful. It's not the kind of noise you would use to warn or notify anyone of anything. Poster above is correct, sounds like a subwoofer from a car parked next to you!

Yes....it sounds like a sub woofer! I don't believe it's the pump per se, but the vibrating pump sets up a resonance in something else (maybe the large plastic frunk) or anything else that might be touching one of the lines, etc. I had the frunk out when the homelink transmitter was being...

Just posted in the other thread. My 2021 does it too. Annoying as hell and a real shame given how quiet and smooth the car is otherwise. No way they intended this. There's got to be some resonance being created somewhere. I can't believe it got through testing like this!

I know on my 3 Performance, I can feel the traction control keeping the wheels from spinning at low speed full throttle acceleration. In addition to everything above, tires and surface can play a role, especially from a "dig".

My 2021 does exactly the same thing. All 2021s might be doing this, but there's no way they intended this. More like.....oh crap we built all these 2021 3s with a heat pump that will setup a resonance in the chassis from time to time. Yes.....it's like deep bass from the sub woofer, and...

Floor mats and thumb drive, yes to both. I'm not sure what a CCS L2 adapter is.

Thanks for that tip. Used it this evening. You have to touch the screen in my 3 to get those controls to come up, but the pop right up and did what I needed. I turned the seat heater on with the phone app. Would be nice to have the seat heater included on that tool bar, but that's nit...

I've had the car (2021 Model 3 Performance) for a couple of weeks and I have a couple of issues that don't seem to be covered anywhere. It's probably obvious, but let me know what I am doing wrong: 1. If I have Netflix running (and I frequently do, due to waiting on kids at various practices...

Yeah....thanks again for the info. I REALLY like ABRP, and can't wait to try my next road trip with it. One sort of related question.....do the chargers at hotels (I guess they call them "destination chargers" typically charge fast enough to get a full charge in 6-8 hours. Just trying to...

Also interested if they say it's "out of spec". At first, mine was just a deep rumble. Thought it was coming from the subwoofer. Now, it's sometimes bad enough that I can feel it vibrate the steering wheel for a second or so when it cuts on. I can't believe this thing was really engineered...

The cycling is not consistent. I would guess it depends on outside temp and cabin temp, battery temp, etc. It's bad enough that U can feel it vibrating the steering wheel when it cuts on

5% = 50 miles would be 10 miles per %? Wouldn't that give 1000 miles on a full charge?

So....I went out to the garage, this time I pushed the button while it was charging but I WAITED UNTIL THE LIGHT TURNED WHITE as suggested above, then pulled it out. It came out fine that way. I think I might have just been engaging in premature withdrawal (insert "that's what she said" joke...

Good advice. I definitely hear it click, then I pull on it, but it does not come out. I click it again and maybe a third time and it comes out. I assumed I was doing something wrong. I'm going to pay more attention and report back!

So this is absolutely a "newbie" question. I have a 2021 Model 3 Performance. I have the Tesla wall charger. I charge anytime I am at home. I have to try 2-3 times to get the cord out of the car, so I think I might not be doing something correctly. If the car is plugged in and has completed...

ABRP is super cool. I also did not realize that charging to less than "full" more frequently would take less time than a single charge to a high %. I stopped once, charged to 99%, but it took about 1.5 hours (I did not track the time closely, but the estimate on the screen was 1 hour, 40...

Hmmmmm.......I'm not sure I buy that 100% as "normal". Last night, I drove down a pitch black parkway and did not have a single error. Used autopilot the entire way. The only difference that I could see was that the speed on the parkway was 55MPH, the highway drive the other night was at...

Yes...I downloaded that app and have already plotted my next road trip to TN. Why can't Tesla build something like that into the car? I assume you have to run that app on your phone? No way to get it to run on the car screen?

Are you driving on completely dark roads? Just asking....I don't have errors during the day, only when on the highway at night, no street lights.

This was on a very dark highway, no streetlights.

Question.....I was driving down the interstate highway (I77 and I81 in NC, and VA). It was dark out (obviously) and there was light to moderate traffic. Are you driving on dark highways at night? I was surprised that it kept saying the cameras were blocked and autopilot was restricted. I...

The "notifications" specified the pillar cameras and this happened frequently throughout at 3 hour+ drive home. Clear, dry conditions, probably 45-35 degrees throughout the trip. Car is brand new, not even dirty yet!
