    New Model Y Purchase Observations

    Every Tesla selling right now has that showing in the vehicle specs. This only means it has FSD hardware(HW4 specifically for 2023, 2024 models) in this vehicle and it can have FSD feature live anytime if you pay for it or getting it free(like trial).

    Tesla Insurance option not available in App

    I just messaged support about the problem, not sure it's related to that. Because the support wasn't really helpful, then it came in another update of the car software(from Tesla). After that, it works now, it might be coincidence.

    Automatic settings on windshield wipe when on auto pilot (problem worse)

    Not really, mine still goes crazy like before. Can't disable auto mode when using FSD, very annoying!

    Counting Teslas while you drive?

    Not only I count Telsa since I got mine, but I also count each Y, X and 3 on the roads and sometimes all the cars to calculate the percentage.....My boy also couldn't stop counting Teslas while on the road.....LOL

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    Schedule a service appointment and have them fix it for you. They should have enough experience/information on their side now.

    Automatic settings on windshield wipe when on auto pilot (problem worse)

    The auto wiper mode just drives me crazy so I just turn it off most of the time. I don't understand why Tesla still haven't fixed the issue over years!

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    Model Y Competition: Rivian R2 Price & Specs Leaked! -- $47500, 0-60 3 Sec, 330 Miles Range

    Hope Rivian can hold well until R2 is out of door......based on its current financial situation, I feel it could go bankrupt soon and be sold to some big player in auto industry...

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    Can you call them directly? Do that if you can before driving to there. I had similar issue before and called them then it works.

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    I took it to the service center(with an appointment), you can't do this by yourself. They will figure out what to do. So far, I've had couple of updates after the fix, no issues.

    Windshield wiper controls are the worst about a Tesla

    My complain is "auto" mode not working correctly sometimes. It could come up under good weather with clean windshield glass(so I have to disable it manually sometimes, but Auto Pilot requires it on), or sometimes it is not fast enough or reacts too slow. After reading somewhere, it's a...

    Tesla Insurance option not available in App

    Thanks for all the replies! Good to know all the bad and good. My problem at last solved today by Tesla. Tesla pushed another software update to my car and after installing it, the Tesla Insurance magically back to my app. I will do more investigation then decide.

    Wireless charging question

    It's a simple cheap case with strip from Amazon, not mageSafe one.

    That's really cheap! Mine is about $150 per month.

    Can Y open garage door without myQ?

    Waiting for minutes to open...incredible and horrible. I would not tolerate even 10 seconds. Mine just opens instantly once my car is in the distance, it's been very reliable so far.

    Wireless charging question

    My wife has iPhone 15 Pro Max, it won't charge with case on but it does charge OK without case, a little slow though.

    Tesla Insurance option not available in App

    Time to shop for insurance for MY, and this time I wanted to try Tesla Insurance which is offered here. I did a quote yesterday in the Tesla App, but I haven't decided to go for it and want to research a little more. So I quit the app and want to do it later. Now the option disappears from my...

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    Basically, it's a pure software issue, as explained by their engineer. The service center people first just filled in an awful internet signal reason, and I told them I am a software engineer too and the reason is just bullshit. Then some engineer called me later to give me detail explanation...

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    True, it says Standard Connectivity expires after 8 years(for vehicle made of 2022). No one knows what's going to happen after that. I believe data transmission will still work as now in background but Tesla app control/connection to your vehicle might need a service fee to work.

    Should HW4 be better than HW3?

    I have my TMY LR serviced recently and the service center gave me a loaner TMY LR, similar but older, like 3-4 years older with 8K+ mileage. Compared to my 2023.11 TMY, I can see some subtle physical differences, though most of parts are pretty much the same. However, to my surprise, this older...

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    Yes, the cell connection is always there no matter you have premium connectivity or not(I believe it's called standard connection). That's how Tesla uses it to transmit your vehicle various data(including diagnostic, statistical, real-time data even some privacy data etc.) to its server all the...

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    One more thing, if you don't have premium connectivity subscription, you won't be able to have real time sentry mode live camera. That means you still can turn on sentry mode but you can't see the live image from camera, even if your vehicle is on Wi-Fi. I think that's the only thing would make...

    Can Y open garage door without myQ?

    HomeLink is universal so you can use many openers and it's free. Of course here for new Model Y, you need either to install the module by yourself or by Tesla so your model Y supports HomeLink. Then follow the instructions in the manual. To use MyQ, the garage opener must support MyQ(so...

    Tesla still has build quality concern.

    I suggest you take it to the service center to have them check it up and fix it. That's what I did. You are right, it's no guarantee that newer is better at least for Tesla, kind of disappointed.

    Tesla still has build quality concern.

    Well, that's what they told me, it clearly stated A-pillar is removed and replaced.

    Tesla still has build quality concern.

    Model Y LR, delivered at Nov. 2023, Manufactured in Austin Out of the delivery center, I didn't notice anything usually until I drove faster than 50mph. It gives a high-pitch squeak(over my head), depending on the wind, it comes and goes, with higher or lower whistle sound. At first I though it...

    That makes sense.

    Can Y open garage door without myQ?

    You can buy a Wi-Fi extender(pretty cheap these days) to solve your week signal problem.

    Are you paying for premium connectivity?

    I was thinking to get it, but eventually I found out I really don't need it. . Standard connection actually has traffic data, GPS navigation uses it for routing. It just not displaying it on screen . I don't do streaming services . I can always connect my phone's hotspot so it has...

    USA MY RWD has soft limited LR battery!

    Not sure this is true. The big question here is why Tesla does it this way. The LR battery is bigger, heavier and more expensive. There is no real reason to do it this way in theory, unless they are short on batteries or only makes one type of battery, but we all know this is not the case.

    2023 seven seater model y vibrates a lot in street speed and 60 km above

    Yes, ride is stiff but yours seems not right, it shouldn't shake or vibrate. Suggest you take it back to service to take a look.

    What are your home electricity rates?

    I am paying 13.5 cents per KWH(after all the fees and taxes) at my home here in Texas. Tesla Super Charging stations are 33 cents per KWH to 38 cents per KWH here Other charging stations are 45 cents per KWH to 55 cents per KWH here Based on my simple calculations against about same size gas...

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    Update: Tesla finally fixed my Model Y. I asked for the reason why it fails this way and discussed with the technicians, they gave me this explanation: nothing is wrong with the car's hardware, it's just a pure software issue. This happens on some 2022 and 2023 Model Y. It's basically caused by...

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    My model Y still sits in Tesla service center and they haven't fixed it yet. They gave me a loaner Model Y to use from last Friday when I dropped the car. Will update it when it's fixed -- said it would be today. Seems it's a tough problem...

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    I directly call my local service center and they tried to help but no cigar. However, they can't schedule appointment with me and I had to go through the app. Funny thing is, there is no option to schedule service if I chose software related topic(only can submit concern and can only do once)...

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    My problem came back again after I entered service mode and 'fixed' it last week! So requested a service(it only allows me to submit as a concern if I chose software update issue). Then I called service center and talked to them. They told me that: yes, they have received a few calls/cases with...

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    Sorry to hear that it didn't work. Based on people having same issue and scheduled by service, Tesla thinks it's the hardware issue(which I am not convinced) and will replace the computer of the car. So be patient and wait for them to schedule the service for you. Good luck!

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    Just checked, yes, it's the latest 2023.44.30.8 after I reinstalled the software. So my guess is, the updated software has been fully downloaded to the car, but somehow, the installation never initiated(seems to me the car thinks it's not done downloading). By doing software reinstallation, it...

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    So far I don't see anything wrong with software reinstalling. It actually installed the latest version(which was stuck for a few days) for me and keeps all previous personal settings.

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    I successfully 'solved' this issue(with the help from other post) by entering service mode and reinstalling the software. At least now it seems back to normal. No more hanging up, not even an upgrade. Car/software works fine. You can try that to see.

    Software update 2023.44.30.8 hung up - Service Center trip required??

    I have exactly the same problem! Just posted a new thread to ask for help! Now I am not alone. Maybe I will just contact service center and turn off Wi-Fi. This update is unnecessary for me but it's updating automatically and now it stucks there and drain the battery.

    Having problem to download latest OTA update, anyone else?

    My model Y behaves strangely this time while previous 2 updates were smooth and fine. I don't know what's wrong and need suggestions. It's the latest "recall", nothing important, just text is too small or whatever. Software is 2024.2.2.1 Here is what happens, it's been almost 3 days now, it...
