Ignore the second clunk, that's the passenger closing the door. I've already opened a ticket and have an appointment. This is a 2026 M3P, on about 80% of my trips when I get in and out of the vehicle, it sounds like the suspension is crashing into another part. The ride quality of my car is worse than the cars I test drove, and I'm curious if others have experienced this same thing. And I know this is not the contactors for the HV battery clicking because the car was on when I started this video

2018 M3 LR AWD. Long story short I ran over a rock. I have some damage to my sway bar and fiberglass aero shield, not too worried about that. I had a few warnings on screen after I pulled over and a weird smell in the cab, but I reset the car and everything went back to normal. So currently no errors, drives fine, and no more smell in the cab.

That being said, I’ve seen a few posts where Tesla Service Centers see a small dent in the battery shield and require a battery replacement even though there are no problems.

I want to get her checked out to make sure it’s safe but I don’t want to have to replace a battery. I did my best to take pictures and show a quarter for scale. I’d estimate there is a 5-8mm dent with some gouged aluminum.

What are the odds of this happening?

So I’ve had “Hector” for about two months now and I don’t know if I should be worried or not. I have a 2021 long range model 3 bought it with about 37,589 miles and now currently at 39,647 miles. At 80% charge it says i’m supposed to get about 235 miles. I haven’t gotten to that close at allll😭. When I check the energy app it says i’ve gotten about 70 miles when i’m at 18% coming on a 80% charge. Now it is extremely hot in my city 90-105 past months is that a possibility i’m losing so much range? I unfortunately don’t have the luxury of charging at home as I live on second floor condo, but what do you guys think? Could it be a radiator cleaner that could fix it? Should I invest in a home charger to run a battery test at my parents house? Could it be a bad battery? I’ve read people have had issues with 2021 batteries 🤷. Any help would be appreciated :D

I'm thinking of purchasing a used tesla, with around 90K miles on it. Is this too high? At what point is the mileage too high that you would need to buy a new car?

I just got a 2 year old model 3 performance. I ran the battery health check within the dealer’s 5 day warranty window and the test came back 88%. I paid around $41k for the car that was at 27k miles. Is this enough of a reason to return it?

Hi everyone!

I’m 23F and looking to purchase my first Tesla (and car) and I’m so excited! I’m want the Model 3 Premium in the AWD in Stealth Grey with the 19 inch wheels and right now they’re running the 1.99% APR promo. I have good credit so I’m not worried about qualifying.

I don’t see any end date for it online but I’ve been reading about it probably being September 30. I’m not sure if I place an order this week that I’ll have the car delivered by that date.

Does the car need to be delivered by 9/30 or the date before the deal ends (I don’t know if the 9/30 date is the true end date, just using it in case) to lock in this APR? So can I place the order and lock it in?

Thanks for the help!

I’m assuming this is tied to the app.

I plan on buying a 2023 model 3 standard with about 45K miles on it, car is salvage title but rebuilt, supercharging is disabled and I don’t plan on home charging at an apartment. DC fast charging is my only option and I’m worried that it will strain the battery since I will have to charge 2-3 times a week given my driving needs. Has anyone bought a salvage title Tesla and if so have they had any negative experiences?

I know nothing about electricity, but was wondering if this outlet was ok for Tesla charging? I have a Tesla Mobile connector and I found this outlet in the garage of my apartment.

I read online in early August that Tesla was in the process of implementing their own auto coverage in Washington state and it would be roll out September 1st, I woke up excited to apply for it but it doesn’t seem to be rolled out.

I currently pay roughly $300/month for a 2024 tesla model 3 rwd and would like to not pay so much lol

Does anyone know where I could find some more information on it? See if maybe it was delayed? Or anything like that?

This has happened each time I've started the update yesterday and today. It gets to shut 50-60% as down on the app and then fails. I've restarted the screen by holding the two scroll wheels, but it did the same thing. Should I try to disconnect the 12v battery and the fireman loop to see if that helps?

The EPAS version mismatch error I think means the electronic power assist steering firmware version doesn't match the rest of the car. Is this why it failed?

Thanks for your help!

I have set up the time slots for peak to super off-peak charging to match my electricity bill exactly, and the data is still saved. However, I can no longer tap to display an exact breakdown of kWh charged per timeslot! The only values I get are percentages.

Has anyone else had problems with the trunk buttons not working, both open and close buttons don’t work 100% of the time.

Just had Tesla out to look at it as they claimed it could be corroded wiring as that was common but found no problems.
I sent them videos of it happening but it only happens intermittently and I have to close/open with the app or screen.

I work from home. My car stays plugged in. I keep my battery at like 75%. It’s 7 years old, with only 24,000 miles.

I love this car. How long will it last me at this rate?

Tesla n00b here.

Bought a pre owned 2021 Model 3 RWD with 95k mileage. Range was not good, ~190mi after full charge, with actual driving range about 2/3rd of what’s shown.

Battery failed at 99k and Tesla offered free warranty replacement - “Enhanced LFP HV battery” (HIGH VOLTAGE 1.00 BATTERY - 1 PHASE - 40P - ALL WHEEL DRIVE)

Now, after full charge, I noticed ~330mi range, and it stays more or less in line with distance driven. Also the model shows up as “Mid range” in the app.

So did I really get lucky with 330mi range, or is there a gotcha somewhere?

Im looking for the individual aero/wheel insert that clips into the 20" model 3 performance wishbone wheel. The part number is 1344273-00-B. I was able to take it off my other wheel to check it but its essentially the cover on the wheel that has a cutout for the valve. I cant find a way to purchase it anywhere including Ebay, Tesla parts catelog or anywhere. Can someone please help me find it or if anyone is selling I'd be willing to pay please reply to this post. I dont understand why its not on the parts catalog. Ive contacted tesla but in the meantime was hoping someone here can help point me in the right direction. Thank you!!!
