Looks to me as pretty much the same thing, but with different UI. Track Mode v2 was showing brake, motor and battery temps as well.

I hope they finally switched brake fluid from DOT3 to DOT4 for new Model 3 Performance.

I've been living with FSD Beta for over a year. But with recent updates it improved to a level where I can understand the renaming from "FSD Beta" to "FSD Supervised". I was sick for few days, mild fever and no passion for driving at all. However, I needed to drive my family around to few places...

I lived with a loaner Model S Plaid for a week... My wife and daughter enjoyed it so much. Launching from the traffic light from 0 to 60 in few seconds never gets old, no matter what people think. That what makes roller coasters fun. After that I do full throttle in my MYP and I don't have any...

Found this thread by doing a research on brake upgrade options. After just ~10 hot laps on Model Y performance I've glazed the pads, boiled the brake fluid and warped left caliper. So +1000 to your comment that replacing brake fluid and pads is required for any track use. Good news is that Tesla...

Definitely a cool idea and can be a solution for many, but I'm not a big fan of how it looks on Uberturbines.

Quick update from my side. A day before appointment I've messaged Tesla Service reminding them that I've installed retrofit myself and I just need the settings change in my car. They've updated the estimate from $330 to $34 and on the day of visit it was updated to $0 (Goodwill service). When...

I have HEPA filter installed since 2022 and I love it (HEPA filter assembly, new duct and new style apron). I have no issues with air flow in auto mode, but I was missing a bio-defense button. I've scheduled the retrofit service for next Tuesday and approved $330 estimate. I hope I won't be...

End of the track season update... I did plenty of track days on Pacific Raceways on my Camaro SS 1LE this season. I think I finally figured out the perfect racing line and brake applications on that track. If you don't know what is Pacific Raceways - go and watch the movie "The Art of Racing in...

Tried it, doesn't match on my wheels. Mine had a little of purple tint in grey, Zinc doesn't have it. A lot of reviews on Amazon share the same story - some are lucky with the match, others don't have a match at all.

Thanks for sharing. I'm taking my words back about using WDH in 60/40 configuration. I would say no WDH at all of very mild 80/20 config, so twisted forces are limited.

The dry weight is actually just slightly more than 4000lb. It is off-the-grid trailer, so water tanks are big for its tiny size and plenty of storage room, resulting in almost 2500lb of cargo capacity and GVWR 6485lb. I wouldn't even think about pulling this thing with Model Y with full tanks of...

In other words - prevent the squat and do the math before towing. Towing is no joke and people lose control during towing on interstates every day. Tongue weight limit on Model Y is 350lb, payload capacity is 1157lb. Move trailer battery and propane tank from trailer nose to the frunk, empty...

Fun to read this ;) I've just posted my solution in a parallel thread. I would go with Uberturbines any time, can't stand the looks on Aero or Induction wheels. jerouimet, congrats! Model Ys are so cheap these days that indeed you can buy two of them for the price of one a year ago.

My 25" travel trailer has GVWR 6485lb. Model Y Performance tows it like a little toy, no issues at all. Brake capacity in Performance trim is very good, same goes with torque. I think 0-60 acceleration is within 10 seconds - I launch from the traffic light way faster than most other cars can do...

Not just possibly - it will be drawing 32 amps for hours and hours of charge unless you specifically reduce it to 30 amps in the app. While I think your concern is reasonable and I also don't understand why Tesla decided to put 30amp-rated plug into 14-50 adapter, they've designed the whole...

"Bluetooth only mode is available on Apple Watch for users who do not want to share credentials with 3rd party apps" Please, tell me more! :) I was always hesitant in using such apps because I don't want to give access to 3rd parties to my car from anywhere in the world. But this sounds like a...

I've received FSD Beta v11.4.7 few days ago and I can confirm that FSD Beta still doesn't understand the concept of Express Lanes (I-405 in Seattle area). When I activate it while driving in Express Lane, Tesla tries to exit to regular lane at the first opportunity instead of driving in Express...

While I have 60amp circuit for Tesla Wall Charger at home, I use 14-50 plugs with mobile charger in different places and it charges with 32amps with no issues. If I wouldn't be a geek "I need the fastest charging I can get" and electrical engineer, I would go with installing 14-50 plug and...

I've posted the result of my final (and last) attempt to color match Uberturbine grey metallic color in Tesla Model 3 forum - you can see that there is no match by any means. This is where I gave up and decided "I can't match it? I just paint it black"...

I've been trying to find a solution to curb rash since I've purchased my Model Y Performance in 2021. I've scratched the wheel first time by doing the parallel paring on my 1st week of owhership, scratched another wheel a month later, and after 2 years all four wheels are scratched, repaired and...

I've followed the recomendation from this thread and went to local Sherwin Williams Auto Paint store and ordered Suzuki ZMW spray can. They had two variants of that color code and I've picked the less metalic one. Paid $55 for a custom colored spray can. Guess what - it doesn't match at all. It...

What is your experience with Model Y on the track to say that? 7 inch drop? Is that a typo? MYP ground clearance is 6.2".

I'm still waiting. Counting days to get Track Mlde on my MYP. Interesting move - Elon promised it 2 years ago, and finally ships it in December. SCCA off-season, and not so many HPDEs across the country. I'm pretty sure some cars will be wrecked by newbie drivers trying drift mode on public roads.

Another track day. but sad that's I'm in slow ring due to FSD Beta. So still no track mode im my Model Y that I need so much Anyone already tried it in action?

You can put 265/35/R21 on stock Uberturbines. Rear will look stretched, but that doesn't affect the ride. And you will be able to rotate tires on the rims if needed.

Elon kept his promise - as soon as I increased by safety rating to 81, my Model Y received FSD Beta. I was in the beta queue since August 2021. I'm on 10.69.2.3 now and have been driving with FSD in different parts of Seattle for few hours. It worked OK for 90% of the time. It even tried a...

I saw VSEC_a222 error on my Model Y yesterday. Rear right wheel doesn't show any tire pressure. Appeared out of the blue during regular driving on a regular day. I'll have a service appointment in few days, let's see.

I was waiting in line in Tesla Service Center yesterday and there was a guy in front of me the with exactly the same problem. Technicial immediately advised to replace the compressor, and since his Model S was out of warranty, there was a significant bill attached to it. Is it a common issue...

I understand what you are saying. I don't want to say that their response was wrong. Do they have an ability to make customer happy just by connecting with a computer and changing air filter setting from "standard" to "HEPA"? Yes. I showed the technical that I have HEPA filter in the car by...

Quick update - went to the service center to swap the apron. Got the right one. But they still don't want to enable biodefense mode. Instead of arguing on explaining, service center manager sent me directly to NCDS to file a dispute. Sad...

Was it a mobile service appointment, or technical support request? These are two different paths through the app - first goes to the closest service center (and they don't want to enable biodefense mode), second goes to the main contact center.

Agree. It seems they gave me an old part, packaged as new part. I'm check with them to get the replacement.

Installed HEPA filter today. Took maybe 30 minutes to remove old duct and install HEPA filter. However, apron that I had in the car is exactly the same that I've bought - is says 1619812-00-B on the packaging, but it has 1492605-00-B molded on the plastic itself (same number on the original...

That's spot on. I usually disable auto-high beams every time I engage autopilot because it turns off high beams on well lit interstates and when driving on coutry roads - disabled high beams too late, other driver already hate you at that time for blinding them. But at least you need to disable...

Did lapping on 2.25 mile road course yesterday. Stock 2021 Model Y Performance, stock Pirellis. It was 90F outside, really hot for our area. Three lapping sessions, 6 laps each, 20 minute pause between them. Other cars were struggling with boiling brake fluid and engine overheating. Model Y had...

For me it went away after a week of driving.

You can sign in and select Model X HEPA upgrade. There you can pick your Model Y from the drop down menu, which seems to me as bug on their website. There is no Model Y HEPA upgrade.

I still can see only Model X HEPA Filter upgrade, costs $500. It says "Model X models 2015-2020". I think that the fact you can add it to card and select to install it to Model Y is a bug of the website. Maybe they are working on making Model Y HEPA upgrade the same experience as Model X and...

I couldn't find a thread about track time and racing in general on Model Y. Is anyone else using Model Y Performance for autocross or lapping? On our local autocross events there are multiple Model 3s - one is always 1st/2nd, another two are usually in top 10 (out of 80 cars). I don't feel...

After few weeks of waiting I have finally picked up HEPA filter, air intake, rear apron and 2x cabin air filters. Will clean the evaporator with Koolit, pick two M6 bolts and the nearest Autozone and have fun retrofitting it next week. BTW, here is an official evaporator cleaning procedure...

Can you share a link to that Model Y HEPA upgrade, please? I see such only for Model X.

Thanks. I've ordered new OEM cabin air filters and requested parts to retrofit HEPA filters. However, closest Tesla Service Center immediately responded that doing this retrofit will void the warranty and won't sell me the parts. I've asked another Tesla Service Center and they've agreed to...

Sorry, I didn't get it - so do you still need a regular cabin air filter after doing hepa retrofit or not?

As I understand, when you do a retrofit, you can get rid of your original cabin air filter, right? That comes in two equal rectangular pieces.

Mine was replaced during mobile service visit and problem is solved now. Over a year later and many car washes - no peeling.

For the price of summer CUP2s with light 19 rims and BT TPMS sensors I can buy a dedicated used track car 😀 But I see your point. I'm just too lazy to swap the wheels for track day.

Elon was promising track mode for model Y for years...

Still waiting for Track Mode on Model Y too... While I understand it is not an alternative to full Track Mode, I've just created a new driver profile, called it "Track" and applied all settings I could that M3 Track Mode also applied: 1. Steering = Sport 2. Acceleration = Sport (while I always...

And just for fun - how Uberturbines with 295 wide tires compare with RAM TRX wheels (which are 325/65/18, 35" tall tire). Huge!
