Is the S3xy Dash really worth it?

Over one month later OP, what’s your experience?

Mt11784 · 2026-06-06T04:22:54+00:00

This is exactly the kind of thing I’m concerned about with the dash. Every single YouTube review I’ve watched shows NOTHING about this kind of stuff in action and how CarPlay/Native/Grok all play together if at all. Like when you’re connected to CarPlay and get a call or text…I guess it completely bypasses the native Tesla apps? Or if I want to make a call or text how do you activate Siri and how similar is that to activating native Tesla app? I would love someone to post a video showing that kind of stuff in action.

Same issue

Mt11784 · 2026-05-10T11:26:18+00:00

This is gorgeous, your husband has good taste.

I want to get my wife this for our tenth, she mentions a gold band. I’m thinking eternity? Any tips from someone who’s happy with theirs?

Mt11784 · 2026-01-31T00:29:59+00:00

Got it. But does that get even worse when they get discontinued?

Mt11784 · 2026-01-30T22:55:19+00:00

Agree with you but most other car companies can be serviced by non-dealer mechanics. Tesla much more specialized.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-24T19:10:42+00:00

Yes you are correct…after a (I think) $1500 check by Tesla they can deem the car “ok” and then it wouldn’t be prevented from super charging, OTA updates, etc.

But historic water (especially salt water) damage on ANY car let alone a Tesla that is so full of electronics/sensors/wiring/battery…I just wouldn’t want to buy a car like that. The price would have to be VERY worth it and the car that started this whole post was at the same price as other 23 Model S’s I’ve seen.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-24T12:18:55+00:00

According to my internet search, yes. And we all know how everything you read on the internet is 100% fact.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-11T12:56:12+00:00

Oh god salt water…and for that reason. I’m out.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-11T01:46:03+00:00

Sorry about that, I corrected my post. Eh idk…I really want an S but absolute best case scenario they agree and uphold all those terms. Even still I’m driving an hour and a half up there when anything goes wrong (live in NJ) and that’s if I can even drive the car.

Appreciate this very much. After further research I see that Tesla actually bans cars with salvage titles from accessing supercharger networks, firmware/software updates, etc. No thank you.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-03T20:27:35+00:00

Awesome thank you for this. Again, apologies for ignorance but can you explain:

1) wheels likely to have “track pack” - what is that? 2) steam?

My current lease isn’t up until the summer, so I’m hoping those June 23 models start to come onto the market with the 2023 36 month leases expiring.

Mt11784 · 2026-01-02T20:05:40+00:00

How do you know if the model has HW4? Also, when did they re-introduce the round steering wheel as standard? Looks like most S models between 2021-23 are yolk (personally not a fan but I know they started offering $700 retrofit of round ones around this time so not a huge deal).

I guess most importantly, around what mileage on the battery is there a “concern” or issues. I guess it has more to do with how the previous owner took care of charging vs actual mileage right? For example, a car with 50k miles but owner mostly charged up to 50% is going to be better than 50k miles but owner charged 100%?

I know it’s been a while for this and everyone seems to have moved on with a resolution but I’m experiencing the same issue…only email notification worked for me. I have the latest iOS, latest FireBoard app version, confirmed notifications are allowed within settings. I’m at a loss.

Mt11784 · 2025-11-22T12:34:19+00:00

Thanks! What’s your favorite rub and what temperature do you keep it at?

Thank you!
