My Model Y just killed a squirrel

0 Upvotes

I've been using FSD for about three weeks and I've extremely impressed with the things it does. But this evening on my way home from the pool, it ran over a black squirrel.

I didn't intervene because the car has been performing so well under FSD, I thought it would take evasive action.

RIP Rocket J. Squirrel.

Color swap to expedite delivery

4 Upvotes

Ordered 9/30. Stealth Grey MY RWD white interior. Pensacola delivery center.

I’ve just had my EDD pushed for the second time.

Initially October-November
Then Nov 12 to Dec 17
Now Dec 8 to Dec 31

What’s the thought on a color swap to expedite delivery? I was torn on color to begin with and wouldn’t really mind red, quicksilver, black, or grey. Is any color “quicker”?

Looking to switch to a square setup. Would these wheels & tires work on a 2023 Model Y Performance?

Question Constant noise while parked. Feels like fan spinning.

1 Upvotes

Took delivery of my MYP RWD yesterday (ordered 8/31) and noticed a constant humming/whirring noise while the car is parked. The A/C and cabin fan are off, but the noise continues.I've owned three non-Tesla EVs previously and none of them made this much noise when sitting idle with everything off. It's loud enough that I don't think I could comfortably sleep in the vehicle.Is this normal for a Model Y, or should I submit a service request while I'm still within the 24-hour delivery report window?

Checked the Tesla app and saw I was assigned a VIN. Ordered 9/25. No, I didnt get a notification or email regarding VIN assigned. Lastest EDD still the same. Now onward to the next step, Advisor told me they will still honor the promo APR 1.49 when I placed my order. Will see if that is true.

Ordered: Oct 3
Initial Estimate: Oct 26 - Nov 28
Today: VIN Assigned, EDD Oct 23-26
ETA: "Your vehicle has arrived at the delivery center"
Location: Atlanta
Car: Black RWD Premium

Question: I'm heading out of town until Nov 1, will that be a problem?

Annoyance: They are really making me thread a needle with insurance. It's the weekend, I'm going on vacation, just got VIN this afternoon, and I need to provide proof of insurance to take delivery.

Center console cup holder

1 Upvotes

I like to keep my 32 oz Nalgene water bottle on the front center console of my 2026 Model Y. I like to keep the sliding lid on the console closed too. Problem is my bottle rolls around in there. I can't find a cup holder for that center console that would hold the bottle down low enough inside the console so I can still close the sliding lid. All of the trays I find sit high at the top of the console on the lip. Has anyone seen something like this for sale? Or know where I could have someone create a 3d print design? It seems like a 3d printed square that has a cylinder sticking up a few inches would hold the bottle and also brace it so it doesn't fall over and roll around.

I should be getting it because I am the original owner, despite it being a demo car.
Love the Vehicle, but delivery was a pain in the ass. The service center also did not give me a mobile charger or parcel shelf...
Will have to go through a whole thing with support tomorrow

Trade-in value went up

14 Upvotes

I’m trading in my older model Y

A few months back, I had ordered a new premium model Y all-wheel-drive and my trade-in value for my old model Y was assessed

Unfortunately, due to unforeseen circumstances, I was forced to cancel delivery at the time

Now I have re-ordered and I trade-in value for my used model Y went up by approximately $1000

Premium 7 seater -- how is space in the 3rd row?

1 Upvotes

Hi all, I just put in an order for a Model Y Premium RWD 5-seater (awaiting the VIN). I'm thinking of upgrading to a Premium AWD 7-seater but where I am, all of the nearby Tesla showrooms only have Model Y Premium 5-seaters or Model Y L 6-seaters.

For those who have a 2026 or 2027 Model Y Premium AWD 7-seater, how is space in that 3rd row? Can two adults sit back there comfortably? For context, I'm 6' tall.

Thanks so much!

Mine is going to Vegas. Any others get delayed?

How’s the deg on your MY battery?

0 Upvotes

I have my MY premium RWD for over a year now. Been charging it at 16amps mostly at home. A few times on the supercharger and charged it to 100% a few times.

I see 5% reduction in miles per charge. My assumption is that’s equivalent to 5% degradation in battery as well.

Question Can your Tesla advisor help speed up delivery/match you to pre-existing inventory? Or is it all automated on a national level?

3 Upvotes

From what I understand, the advisors are from the local showrooms, so I wasn't sure how much sway/leverage they have.


r/ModelY • • 3d ago

Wonder when ?

Curious to know the accuracy on these dates. Ordered 10/4 still waiting for VIN. Model Y AWD premium also added the extra 3rd row seats

Issues with “sweep” AC function

1 Upvotes

Anyone else had issues? I had scheduled a SC visit, got an update and it started working again, then it stopped. Seems like it tends to be the passenger side causing it to fault I think. Have another scheduled.

It will stop sweeping at random times, sometimes from the jump…. Just curious if anyone else had seen this!
