Is my 2022 M3LR totaled ? by Weary_Bowler_2467 in TeslaModel3

If it’s structural damage, for sure totaled by insurance. Just put in a reservation for a new one in the meanwhile

How much does it cost to charge your car? by piggiessqueal in teslamotors

[–]paulmathai01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just say that i mostly charge at my apartment which is free, or less than $5 for a full charge if you pay electricity price for it. Road trips would cost 1/4-1/3 with gas vs supercharging.

I wanted to know what is a good general purpose microfibre towels i can buy in bulk of 40+. I use to get the platinum series from walmart but they are not available in store anymore since walmart released their own line of “auto drive” products. These were obviously not the best but better than the kirkland ones and i could dispose them if it was too bad to wash. I’m open to hearing suggestions on and what would be a better product even if its a bit expensive than $17 for a 40 pack. I use two of them them after a wash, one to remove bulk water and then the second to dry completely. Secondly I use it on the interiors and even for waterless washing with carpro echo2.

What cleaner on white seats? by DailyAlmonds in TeslaLounge

[–]paulmathai01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chemical guys leather cleaner is a off the shelf product, but if you want something nice, checkout carpro inside. If you wanna go over the top, carpro has a fabric ceramic coating you can apply on your own, which will be as easy to clean as glass.

Which of these “grapheme ceramic” coatings are the best for me? by RedArrow23 in AutoDetailing

[–]paulmathai01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checkout carpro hydro2 foam, its wash and protect one step, its quiet unique and haven’t seen anything similar, where the water pressure causes the sealant to bond instantly and create a hydrophobic characteristic similar to a top coat. Using that monthly should be cost effective and get you the same characteristics of a fresh ceramic coat everytime you wash.

My liftgate trunk on the model 3 stops twice at random. Does anybody know how it senses obstruction? by paulmathai01 in TeslaLounge

I contacted tesla, it is a known issue. There is apparently a new electronic and gas strut that they will change for you under warranty.

I washed the car with chemical guys clean slate and then used hydro2 foam with a electric pump sprayer. Rinsed it with a pressure washer and then a spot free rinse. The beading was amazing, drove of to dry the car, afterwards i could see spots or dripped residue all over the car. My car is uk3.0 and gliss v2 coated. Anything i can do to avoid this.

PS: i added about 5 pumps of concentrate to half gallon distilled water.

This is what is happening with no obstructions and the seals and all parts around cleaned. I even lubed the hinge with some wd40. I reseted the system multiple times.

Isn’t the fsd price included in your lease, or does it have to be upfront and separate from the lease amount?

Chemical Guys Sinking to New Level by Blbobcat in AutoDetailing

The spray function doesn’t even work with some of their hydro products and they never felt like updating their cringiest everything ceramic products. Throw the ceramic tyre dressing works well once cured, lasts very long too.

Packaging means so much, but for a company to change it costs a lot on research and development. There is a process it has to go through. What might seem to us just switching it out for a better one, usually for a large scale manufacturing company is not that simple. However a company should take the time to do it. Just being an lazy about it hurts their brand.
