As soon as the weather got really cold, my WC started doing this thing where it claims "high temperature detected" or "wall connector issue" and either refuses to charge in the latter case, or only charges at 6a in the former. If I just give it a few seconds after plugging it in, then go in the app and hit Stop/Start Charging, it picks up at the expected rate of 40a. There's no smell, no high temps, no scorch marks, and everything is tightened to the proper torque specs. I haven't gone to Tesla support yet, but I'm about to; has anyone else experienced anything similar? It hasn't been warm enough out to tell if the sub-35 temps are the cause yet.
2022 M3. Did they change something it the last update that puts the FM radio as default when getting in the car? For some reason every time I get into the car now, all I hear is static because it defaults to the FM radio. I never listen to the radio so I don’t k know why it’s doing this, how do I set it to start playing what I was listening to when I got out of the car, like it used to do?
2022 M3. I’ve been through the car wash hundreds of times and every time when I put the car in and out of car wash mode, the auto fold mirrors go in, then back out after exiting car wash mode. For some reason today when I put it in car wash mode, the mirrors automatically folded in, but when exiting they didn’t auto fold back out. Now they won’t auto fold in or out in car wash mode, I have to manual push the button to fold mirrors. I went through all the settings and even did a thumb wheel reset, I can’t get the auto fold mirrors to work in car wash mode, what is going on?
Hi,
We recently installed a Universal Wall Connector and a standard NACS-only Wall Connector in our garage. The standard Wall Connector is daisy-chained off the Universal, and both are running on a single 60-amp circuit.
I was under the impression that if only one car was actively charging, it would receive the full 48 amps. However, I’ve noticed that it’s only getting 24 amps. The other vehicle, a Honda Prologue, is plugged in but fully charged, so it’s not drawing any power.
Am I misunderstanding how power sharing should work, or is there an issue with the setup? Any insights would be appreciated. Thanks!
I'm receiving these error messages "bms_w035" "bms_w172" "bms_u008". Could anyone give any advice
Hello,
I was looking at buying a Model Y. However, I have a teen that will start driving soon. Does anyone have tesla insurance and can you add a teenager to the policy. If so, how much did the price increase?
TIA

Edit got is increased to 88 by driving for 2hr. Score 95 monthly premium 95.
Hello,
This fall my 2018 Model 3 started squeaking, I knew I was in for another upper control arm replacement. I decided while I do the job, I should replace all my lower control arms as well.
I thought the Tesla ones were medium quality so I went with lifetime warranty parts : Mevotech and Moog for the upper control arms
As soon as the temperature dropped to -10 all of my Mevotech parts are reaking like there's no tomorrow
I reached out to Rockauto and they told me to start a warranty claim so I'd get the exact same parts, but they are so bad I don't want them
I wanna know if some of you went third party, what brand and if you are satisfied.
My car reeks on both side, from both lower control arms
Thanks in advance
Hi
I recently had my computer placed in my MY. I can not figure out how to get my profile picture from my app profile to synch with the profile picture in the car itself. My wife’s profile from her phone also does not show up under drivers.
Any way to synch and solve these issues? My app is connected to the Tesla.
Thank you
This will be my first tire change on my 2013 model S P85 (new to me). My baby her so I will not be needing performance tires just good mileage out of Quiett tires. I would also like to have tires that extend out a little from the rim so that the rim is not the first thing that contacts curbs. What have you had luck with?
I was looking to order this morning and found that white interiors are no longer available on the Launch Edition.
Does anyone know if it will come back or is this it? Is this a way to limit the number of Launch Editions ordered and sold?
My gut is telling me that people are ordering them because they get a lot of bang for their buck and Tesla doesn't want that. They want people to order non Launch Edition to spend more money.
Around the country most places have a rebate for installing a level 2 charger by a licensed electrician. Is there no way to get the rebate if I do the install myself? Are they typically asking for proof?
I already have a permit.
Hello,
I’m reaching out regarding a few concerns with my brand-new Tesla Model Y Dual Motor, which I took delivery of today. I live in the North, so cold weather performance is important to me, and I believe I may be experiencing some issues with the vehicle. I’d appreciate some guidance.
1: The car emits a strange hissing noise while driving, even with all speakers and fans turned off.
2: The windshield isn’t cleaning properly on the right side, leaving noticeable streaks.
3: The rear right window is freezing and letting in a significant amount of cold air, even when the cabin is warm.
As a huge Tesla enthusiast, I must admit I’m a bit disappointed, as I’ve never encountered these kinds of issues with my previous cars (German, Italian, and Japanese brands).
Would you recommend bringing the vehicle to a service center for inspection?
Looking forward to your advice.
Thanks!
Sorry if this is asked a lot, just curious and excited to get my hands on FSD v13. Got a used 2023 model s. Have had it for 2 weeks now and no new update. I know it can take a bit for newly delivered cars but I’m wondering if it’s the same for used with new owner? Or if anyone has experienced similar? This version is over a year old now.
Talked to someone at Tesla and all they would tell me is that “there isn’t a newer version they can send”.
Using FSD v11 has been a blast from the past tho lol.
I have had an odd experience with the climate on my car a couple times.
Regardless of temp, the sound of the air blowing into the cabin gets very loud, almost hollow sounding. It only happened I think twice in the last year, but no change in settings beyond turning it off stops it. Turning back on, started the sound again. But the next day, all back to normal.
I’m setting up service though curious who else has had this happen and what their expertise has been.
Has anyone experienced this issue with their 2024 Model Y? Recently, my charging port randomly opens every time I open or close any door on the Y. This just started happening out of nowhere. Anyone else dealing with this or know a fix?
I've been told this support exists, and even will have preconditioning with the next update, but I'm not seeing any non superchargers (anywhere) in my app (charger section) or the car itself (also charger section). Am I doing something wrong?
My car is locked, in a locked garage and I'm single. Quite regularly lately when I get in the car, I notice the right rear window is down about 2 inches. My sister and I took her 2023 Y from Michigan to key West and back over a two week trip, drove 4000 miles and it did it also yet only two or three times.
So I bought a used home charger V3. They had it set for 40 amps. I connected it to my 30 amp breaker and was able to get into the webpage via the access point and change it to 30 amps. Worked fine. 3 days later I had an electrician friend install a 60 amp breaker and set everything up directly beneath my breaker box. Flip the switch and it powers on then 6 slow red flashes. Figuring it could be from the low amperage setting, even though it's a high voltage error, he hooked up the 30 amp breaker to the new wiring and we still get the same slow flashes. The access point still shows up and my router still shows an IP assigned and when I go to it now it says I have to use the Tesla one app. Downloaded it but I can't get anywhere with it when I type in the correct info it just opens my Wi-Fi settings on my phone. Is there a way to factory reset the thing? I have tried hooking it back to the same 30 amp breaker and wiring that I had it before to try to change the setting I was trying to avoid that. Any advice before I try it.
Thanks so much for your help.
Thank you for the previous opinions/recommendations. I will be ordering with the white seats and plan to clean them once per week. I was wondering if anyone has ever used The Unscented Company dish soap—it works wonders in the kitchen, and I believe it meets the criteria listed in Tesla’s seat cleaning guide.
Your opinions are welcome!
I'm at a 3rd party dealership (BMW) selling my 2023 Tesla Model S. At what point in the sales process should I use the Tesla app to remove profile/transfer ownership? I want all my info gone since I've moved on to other brands.
And would I need to enter any email/contact info in the app if I'm just selling to 3rd party dealership who will auction it?
I already did a factory reset, and am signing the paperwork now. The caveat is they said I will have to wait a few days for the check to be issued, but plate's removed and it's essentially theirs with a bill of sale. They will have the car for a few days before the check comes, but can reneg if there's any issues...
Thx for the help!!
I have purchased MY 2023 and already put on 48.2K miles. I can purchase a 25K extended warranty for an additional $2000. But, is it worth it?
I have a service appointment in 2 weeks and it's to replace the upper control arms. With the high labor rate that they have, it would be costly if I were out-of-warranty.
not sure if it is worth spending 2K to buy a warranty to cover the next 25K miles . any thought ?
Tesla software: v12 (2024.45.32.7 7cc287a111a2) iPhone 13 Pro software: 18.3 (22D63)
Both software versions are as up to date as devices allow. I receive a “text messages not supported by device” when attempting to send messages and messages are no longer received (since latest Tesla update).
I have rebooted the tesla, the phone, and it seems my issue is in the Bluetooth menu on the Tesla, “Sync Messages” is turned off, and the process for ensuring it will turn on is followed. It continually reconnects to just “off”. The phone settings are correct per the instructions, and I send messages from my phone number only (not iOS).
Any ideas here gang?
i heard that we’re supposed to file some form i’m sorry guys im 19 this is my second time doing taxes i got the 7500 off at signing, does tesla send me the the form or do i need to find it?
Hey everyone,
I'm planning on ordering a Model Y and am debating between the white or black interior. I really like the sleek look of the white seats, but I'm concerned about how well they'll hold up over time. I wear a lot of jeans (both blue and black) and plan to use the Tesla for my regular daily commutes as well as towing my boat on weekends, so there might be some rubbing from potentially dirtier clothes. I also live in the North, so salt, snow, and other weather elements will come into play.
Since I plan on keeping the car for a couple of years, I want to make sure the interior stays clean and in good condition. I love the aesthetic of the white seats but am hesitant for the reasons I mentioned. Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
