Vehicle Question Clunking noise when getting in and out of the car

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

0 Upvotes

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

Energy Question Safety concern regarding charging Tesla overnight using a regular garage outlet

4 Upvotes

Hi! I just ordered my Tesla Model Y. Not too long ago, my boyfriend and I moved into his parents house. It all just made more sense since he’s studying for the MCAT and I’m in Graduate school while also working really close by.

They have a garage with a standard outlet, I believe. I was planning on using the mobile connector/charger that comes with the Tesla to plug it in overnight when I’m not using the Superchargers. They also have solar panels too, so it shouldn’t cost too much! I also offered to pay any extra costs to the electricity bill if they came up.

When this was brought up months ago when I was considering trading for a Tesla or EV, his Mom initially said that I could charge it at the house, but then changed their mind due to concern of a fire potentially occurring.

I don’t think they really understand or are educated about EVs, so I also get how that could be a concern. Is there a way I can ensure this is safe or reassure her? Obviously it’s her house, so I would respect her decision either way. But I thought it would be worth the try to explain or even offer getting an electrician to come out to inspect and make sure everything would be fine. Has anyone ever had an electrician come out to just check, and if so, how much was that?

My father has a Tesla and actually referred me. He charges overnight and has something installed in the garage rather than it being the simple one into the outlet. He thinks it would be fine if I just plugged it in at my boyfriend’s parents’ house.

Does anyone have any recommendations on how to approach this or reassure his Mom? Or thoughts in general? I definitely think it would be worth it to also charge overnight. But also I won’t sweat it if I’m not able to. I won’t be living here forever!

App Question Steam GPU game screen flashing/flickering

0 Upvotes

2023 Model X HW4 with Steam capability

I recently had a service for air filter and HEPA replacement as well as radiator cleaning.

After that I noticed when I try to play Steam games randomly the screen flashes or flickers. It goes back to normal but then again comes back again. All randomly.

I asked AI and it said it might have to do with gpu connector cables being close to air filter/hepa?

Has anyone encountered this?

Hi everyone, I have a question: has anyone used Michelin Pilot Alpin 5 winter tires on their Tesla Model Y? I know they are Mercedes-approved (MO-spec), but I'd like to know if anyone has tried them and what your experience has been. Are they good for winter driving on a Tesla Model Y RWD?

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?

Process Question APR 1.99% Model 3 - Applies after delivery?

0 Upvotes

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!

Vehicle Question Is buying a salvage model 3 a bad idea?

1 Upvotes

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?

Energy Question Model 3 range after battery replacement

7 Upvotes

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?

Vehicle Question Glitch where the car shifts into drive, not reverse (RWD highland, SR, 2024)

3 Upvotes

Hello guys, I recently encountered a glitch where the car was shifted into reverse using the screen, said it was in reverse on the screen, the cameras popped up and I was locked out of my music and stuff as usual, but the car moved forwards.

I, being parked on a sideways slope, thought I wasnt giving it enough torque, and instinctively gave it more throttle, and it lurched forwards FASTER. I could not believe my eyes. So I shifted into park, then drive (which I tested by feathering the throttle, and seemed to work normally), then back into park and finally, reverse once more. And the exact same thing happened. I was astonished, as my car has made it up this slope with barely any throttle input in reverse countless times now.

So now I, being stuck in a car that would only go forward, at a location where I now only had 6 inches of breathing room in front, decided to call a few people, including Tesla roadside assistance in Hong Kong, where I am.

The person on the phone was basically useless, and did not seem to understand the fact that I pressed the throttle HARDER and it WENT FORWARDS FASTER. TWICE. They kept insisting that it was the terrain. So before I demanded a tow truck, I decided to try reverse gently one last time, and this time, it magically decided to start working i.e. barely any throttle input, and the car effortlessly made it up the slope.

Can someone please tell me what the hell is going on? My dad has driven this car thrice a week for two years, and I've driven it almost daily for the past year. We've never encountered anything like this before during our almost 31000 kms of driving and plenty of parking. Why would it swear it's in reverse (I could even hear the reversing tone play outside my car), only to secretly be in drive?????

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!!!

Hi,

Is this clunking noise normal (front driver's side). Hopefully you can hear the clunk. If not, what part is likely bad? I'm currently not hearing noises when driving but I was a few weeks ago when going over bumps.

This is a 22 model y Fremont build.

Thanks!!

Process Question Tesla Slovakia pending order without information.

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone,
I’m looking for advice or similar experiences.
I ordered a Model Y Performance (white) in Slovakia on 25 May 2026 and paid the full amount. On 17 August I was told a VIN was assigned — it only appears on the proforma invoice, never in the Tesla app.
From day one the app has shown the exact same message:
“We’ll notify you when it’s time to continue with your pre-delivery tasks.”
No VIN, no ETA, no progress at all.
I’ve contacted Tesla support multiple times (phone + email). The replies are always vague (“we should have some information in the next few days”). Still no concrete update on the car’s status or location.
Has anyone in Europe (especially Eastern Europe / Giga Berlin deliveries) experienced something similar? Did the order eventually move, or did you have to escalate further?
Any tips would be appreciated.

App Question Tesla Provided Auto Coverage Washington State

5 Upvotes

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?
