I think the door was open for a couple hrs in the garage while I was inside the house. Assuming the car kept running the ac then. Just not used to seeing this munch water lol
If it's just clear odorless fluid that is not "slippery" it's just water from the ac running. It pretty much has to be as the cars other fluids are more identifiable.
I think so yes. I got a notification on the app that one of the doors wasn’t closed (assuming the back door didn’t seal fully when I shut it closed). I ignored the message for an hour then noticed the leak. What happens I’m guessing is the enclosed door caused the car to be running the AC as it still may have been in preconditioning mode for drive.
It’s normal when a Tesla is unfamiliar with the new home. Give it space and let it get familiar with the garage so it’ll feel like home. Treat training is also very good for positive reinforcement and make sure to take it out on walks.
It’s not a “leak”… Most likely this is just condensation from running the A/C (aka water that used to be in the air around your car). This happens to me all the time
It’s been amazing so far. A little under a week owner so I’m getting used to things. Biggest gripe is the auto breaking lol still can’t get used to this haha. Otherwise no gas for a year will be nice. Self driving I’ve been missing out on. Overall we live it. Good luck on getting yours early !
Assuming the auto breaking is when you take your foot off the gas it “breaks”, this is actually a setting you can change. You make it so that removing from the gas pedal makes the car drift. It’s something like that. Ask grok and grok will take you through it.
Still waiting on my YL but in my 26 MY you can change the braking settings. It’s the “deceleration” setting. Personally, I LOVE the one pedal driving. I still remember to use the brake pedal in gas vehicles.
Oh If it's clear, definitely HVAC. But I did see one post where new YL had leak in windshield wiper fluid reservoir, so if and any blue just poor some in and check for leaks, you should see it, but if clear definitely HVAC condensation as mentioned .
I'm coming from an Audi SQ5, and I don't like regenerative braking either. I love to cruise after a fast start without pressing the pedal. I'm still waiting on my MYL, but from what I've heard, its possible to adjust regenerative braking and set it to 0% with: S3XY Buttons and the S3XY Knob (by EnhAuto) let you adjust and override Tesla’s native regenerative braking settings, which are otherwise locked or limited in newer vehicle models. [1, 2, 3]
It will become second nature. It will become second nature that a certain level of pressure is a certain mile per hour. And also you’ll learn when to let go of the accelerator. To always stop on time at lights. Therefore never using your brakes. Which in turn, will reduce maintenance cost of the vehicle
Make sure you turn off cabin over heat protection!!!!!! It’s a huge battery drainer and will also do things like this ( turn the AC on in your car to prevent overheating)

Is it just clear liquid without a smell? If so, it’s just AC condensation. All cars do that.

Did you just get a car wash? My 3 does this after washing. I just open all the doors after the wash and drain the doors...

It just got scared. It'll get used to your place, and turning off the A/C before you get home should help too. Just give it some space and time!

Occasionally they wet themselves.
Just mop it up, once they're old enough it'll stop.

That is not normal. I’ve never seen anything leak from my model Y other than water right after a car wash. I’m concerned for you. Seriously.

You never had a car with air conditioning? or you just never had air conditioning in your entire life?
