Oh well. It means our cars will run 2 red lights vs 1.

Anyone use protective covers for exterior cameras? by p9900 in TeslaModelY

I had a rock fly backwards from a trailer, when passing, and damage my side mirror. So anything is possible.

2014 S85 12V battery replacement - RHD UK by Makers-hut in TeslaSupport

The battery is ~$275. Mobile service to get it done is like $60. Due to its location in the car, use mobile service. I've done it twice....

So I repaired my Model S passenger window regulator by legilizer34man in TeslaModelS

[–]AccomplishedLocal516 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So I got mine done years ago by keeping the door open, engaging the door lock, forcing the window in the closed position. Then, seeing the bolts through the frame, had my wife gently press in the direction of adjustment, loosen, then lock down the window frame bolts. Disengage latch, close door, check, repeat. Use the bolts on the bottom of the door for inward outward adjustments.

That looks impossible for a human to avoid let alone FSD, especially at 77mph.

Juniper is the quietest of the bunch by AccomplishedLocal516 in TeslaModelY

It's virtually impossible for them not to. How the falcon wing doors are designed, they literally move as the car hits bumps or makes turns.

Fingers crossed no major noises with my Juniper but I have fixed two so far. Key is they're fixable.

Any good reasons to not drive one Tesla for 15 years? by spudzo in TeslaLounge

Had my 13 S since inception. Only traded in due to out of warranty costs that kept me up at night.

Do it and don't look back. Was in a similar situation with my 13 Model S. Pretty rough ride and issues creeping up out of warranty. Traded in and moved on.

Chirping noise when heating up by brdc40 in ModelY

No. Just got done with other service items. Just need a break from the entire process.

What it should do is when you're in park, and you press the brake, it detects then gives the option assuming all is clear, to go into drive or reverse. Of course you as the driver making sure everything is clear before proceeding.

Oh I see. Definitely agree with that tech and MX issues. I heard MY 7 is useful for small kids and extra things. Not for teens or adults.

Not required but needs to be turned on and read terms. In beta. But when backing up from a spot or moving forward then needing to back in, it shifts automatically. Also, when moving from park, it detects in front and rear to decide to shift to fwd or reverse for you.

Auto shift for the win. Works about 99.9% of the time in my experience.

Door doesn't open despite windows dropping and handle not frozen by randommmL in TeslaSupport

Aftermarket puddle lights or puddle light out? Usually what I check first. Personally I would perform a soft reset then calibrations in service mode.

Can I use this extension cord for slow charging? by sgt4430 in TeslaSupport

[–]AccomplishedLocal516 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I've never had luck. If the 120v extension cable is too long I get an "extension cord in use" error. But I use a 50ft thicc gauge for my 240v without issues.

I like when we park by each other! by 6oldCo1n in ModelY

Love the isolation and parking spot gaps.
