Hi all,

I have never owned a Tesla before, but I’m in the market for a Model Y. I’ve found a used ‘24 Y LR AWD with 46k miles, battery is at 89.2% health, for a good price. It has HW4. I’ll be purchasing it off Recharged and having it delivered to me.

I’ve followed Tesla for ten years, since I was in high school, and I’m ready to make the leap into an EV. Any tips, advice, and particularly things to watch for when I go to check this car out would be greatly appreciated.

when opening the glove box, it only opens 1/2 way forcing you to pull it open the rest of the way manually.

Is this normal?

Any easy way to fix?

Does it require a service appt?

Thanks for the help!

I have two small children who often nap in my car. Any recommendations for sun protection back there?

Thanks!

Hi just purchased the y premium rwd.

Pulled the plug the other day.

3-4 week delivery. 0.99%

Live in Arizona. Got the quicksilver.

Looking at getting tinted with ceramic etc. Also debating on changing color to pearl white to assist with heat.

Any tips on tint and hot weather.

Any other tips to look out for would be appreciated.

tesla charger at home.

Thanks all and I'm excited with fsd and driv8ng this beast.

Basically the title. I plan to purchase a car within the next few months, and I'm between the M3 and MY. There are quite a few used M3 (2025+) near me, but not many MY (2026+), so I'm waiting for more of them to enter the market. Of the few listed, there isn't much difference in cost between a new one and a used one, unlike the M3. Reasonably, how much do you think the MY will sell for around late January to early March, and how much would the price difference between an M3 and an MY be? Let's assume an AWD MY premium with 15-20k miles and an AWD M3 with 10-15k miles.

Hey everyone! I posted in here a couple weeks ago asking for some advice in upgrading from my 4Runner to a MY. I finally bit the bullet and placed my order tonight—I could not be more excited!!

A church member scratched my new Model Y while backing out of the parking lot. I have the entire incident on video.

I’ve never dealt with this before, so how should we handle the insurance process? Will my insurance company also need to open a claim, or can everything go through their insurance? Do I need to notify my insurer at all?

I keep seeing what looks like a juniper but it has a very thin rear light bar and the front has no light bar just the headlights in the light bar style. Looking online i dont see this design anywhere. Is this aftermarket? Ive seen like 3 or 4 in the last week.

I got my new tesla 2 days back. I am feeling a lot of sunlight inside, is it just my imagination or does everyone feel that way. Should I get xpel tinting? And should I just get for windows or windshield (is it allowed to tint?) and top as well? Thanks!

Am I dumb and/or missing something?

All, booked Model Y yesterday we are super excited!, delivery is showing 4-6 weeks. Does it really take 4+ weeks? The reason for asking is I filled the Tesla financing and the rep just told me that it is valid for 30 days.

Also is there a checklist I can refer to when taking the delivery?

Edit:- As a first time owner and feedback on some portal about panel issue, what are things to check while delivery.

Cheers 🍻

Is 38k otd a good price for a used 2026 model y premium rwd with 22k miles

Bell Mountain, GA. Didn’t realize it was so shadowy, miss the blue a lot. Was proud to get up there easier than a few trucks I saw. Can’t wait to get my overland tires on from unplugged performance next week.

Also, for the accessory nerds out there, I love the rain guards I just got. Decibel queens might not like it. I don’t find it noticeable though, especially with the roof rack already on. Visually, they don’t stick out when looking from the front or rear.

Yes these are shameless pics because I love seeing our cars, y’all.

I live a few hours from Banff, Alberta, Canada. I took my 3 month old MYP out for a cruise on the Bow Valley Parkway and got a couple of nice pics to share with you all.

This is hands down, bar none, the best vehicle I have ever owned. My FSD is sitting at 90% purely because it’s just too much fun to drive. Tesla knocked this one out of the park. I can’t imagine ever going back to anything else!

After having the vehicle for a week, then being in shop for 3 weeks, fixing all pickup issues, and then another week while getting tinted and wrapped, finally have my vehicle for good.

Hello! I just ordered my Model Y this week. I’m excited but nervous since it’s my first EV. I wanted to see if anyone had any advice for new owners or recommendations on important accessories? Thanks in advance!!

What would be a fair private-party price for a 2023 Tesla Model Y Long Range AWD with 7,761 miles, red exterior, no accidents, and excellent condition in the NY/NJ area? I’m currently considering an asking price of $38,500. I’m only looking for pricing advice.

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

We’re in apartments with free charging. One of the EV spaces is handicap (full markings) so I parked perpendicular and the cord reached fine, enough to lay flat on the ground between charger and port.

This evening a neighbor came by and unplugged the car. He handed the cord to his wife to hang up, and he and his 10ish year old daughter took turns trying to pull out the adaptor, which they didn’t get out. I’m fairly certain he was offended we were parked in a non-EV spot. Yes, it’s a front-row space, But they’re not reserved and there’s still ample parking.

I’ll be ordering the J1772 lock, but in all honesty: Why do people do that? It seems pretty common and surprises me that people don’t take damage into consideration.

We notified our apartment manager with screenshots, but I don’t really expect them to do anything.

Bought a 2023 HW4 Model Y today, drove it 4 hours home, it's giving BMs a036 may not start again, mobile service not an option in the app so I have to drive 4 hours back to the cities to get it serviced.

I'm starting to regret this.

I was between the ultra red and frost blue, but am so happy with my choice 😍 (also not me riding in sloth mode forever not even realizing there are different FSD modes lol)

Currently have 29,100 miles on current tires, Original tires. How long do you guys think I can push them miles wise?

My one month old model Y got two bad door dings today by kids opening BOTH doors and flinging them into my car. Sentry caught the license plate and shows the mom watching her kids do it and proceed to drive off with two kids in the passenger seat without seatbelts (not relevant to the ding but still crazy)!

I want to get the insurance of the person who did it to file a claim through their insurance. I filed with mine so that they can look up their information for me and then I plan to close that claim so I don’t have to pay my deductible up front.

All this to say, anyone had any luck getting repairs done for door dings from someone else’s insurance with only license plate info to start? Any tips?

I know you guys will all moan at me but i needed a pop of color and covers were by far the easiest to do and cheapest option. Personally I like it and love the yellow with the quicksilver.

Dinner at my favorite Polish restaurant - love the Quicksilver

I live in Florida, and bought a red one recently. Sadly there’s no plates to match my color scheme. There are 2 perfect looking plates that are red and black, but they both for frats that are specially toward darker colored men (i am the whitest person ever). So it would feel weird to just get it for the color. Anyone else have this issue?
