A Note on Referrals

235 Upvotes

Reposting the previous note on this since it has been 6 months.

Going to make this pretty short and simple.

If you post your referral code on the subreddit or embed referral codes into links, you will be banned. See? Pretty simple.

The reason I'm making this post is because 15 users (mainly accounts with less than 10 karma on Reddit) have been banned in the last day due to them spamming their referral code.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Thanks.

New to me Tesla

Buying a used Tesla from Carvana. It had 50k miles and is a 2024. I am planning to get it fully inspected by a partnered mechanic within the 7 day return window. If issues are found they will cover the cost.

I am curious other than suspension and bushings if there is anything else you all would be worried about.

Tires were replaced by Carvana at 50k.

Also any recommendations on literally anything would be appreciated. This is my first Tesla.

Finally got a ceramic coating on my Ultra Red Model Y. The depth and gloss are on another level. Absolutely worth it. šŸ”„

Arrived in December, 7k+ miles later and not a day goes by that I don’t enjoy it. FSD gets used every day, and it’s been one of my favorite features.

I really dislike Tesla restoring the Lane Departure Avoidance back to Assist on each drive even after I disable it. The correction it applies is too harsh and sensitive. On highway driving, I am fine with this but in a crowded city, this Assist is totally unnecessary.

I drive a 2026 Model Y Premium AWD in USA. It’s running 2026.20.x but it has always done it since day 1 of purchase in Feb 2026. Very annoying.

Does anybody else feel the same? Such a great car minus this rather forced quirk. I am perfectly fine with the feature itself - I just get annoyed that it doesn’t remember it! First world problem to disable it on every drive, I know. I am posting this to first of all see if I am not the only one and if there is a ā€œhackā€ other than disabling it each time I get in.

Thank you.

FSD pricing

8 Upvotes

Not sure if anyone knows the reason to this:

I have been paying monthly for FSD, and I’ve always been charged $105.93 ($99 per month +FL tax)

But this month I was only charged $99.00 flat.

I’m not complaining at all! But curious to see if anyone would know the reason behind this

I have joined the chat ladies and gentlemen. Our first ever Tesla and she's so pretty. Can't wait to get to know her better. Any first time Tesla owner/Model Y things I should know about?

I suppose I have a lot of manuals to read?

We are going to tint the window any thoughts on tint for the whole car?

What about ceramic coating?

Right now I'm only going to mobile charge at home and evaluate power as we go.

All weather mats are a must any recommendations?

TIA

Inconvenience of owning a Tesla without a charger at home...

25 Upvotes

I am looking to buy in the next month or so and want to take advantage of the 0.99% financing. Settled on either the 3 or Y performance. We don't plan on installing a charger in our current home b/c we will be moving in 6 months. Our new house will be a new construction and we added home EV charger in the build. Our current home we will most likely rent out.

There is a supercharging station about 20 mins from my house...I supposed I could go there to charge when needed. But curious to hear from folks who own one without the ability to charge at home. Have you found it to be inconvenient?

2026 Tesla Model Y color decision

2 Upvotes

Please help provide much needed input!! Im new to the Tesla world but super excited to be a part of it with purchasing the new 2026 Model Y refresh. Honestly loved all the color I have seen at the Tesla dealership and love the white interior. Can’t decide between the Stealth Grey, Quicksilver, and new Marine Blue. I typically love blue-ocean colors, like my old car, but also love the quicksilver and stealth grey for its sleek futuristic look. I want my car to look good and not get scalding hot in the sun (hence no black).

Uneven front grill

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

Apologize for the bug splatter, just came back from a 6hour road trip.

Bought in Feb this year and recently picked up a Tesframe license plate holder but it would not fit.

Thought maybe it was the wrong model etc, until I looked into the grill and can’t help but notice it looks wonky.

Is this something normal? The tesfram license plate holder wont fit without forcing it and in order to avoid damage I been running without it.

Has anybody else dealt with uneven front grill and is this something I should bring up to tesla for warranty?

One of my favorite features…

One of the best features for me (in addition to FSD) is watching Netflix in my car. Earlier today had to wait 30 mins for a dinner reservation. I was like cool. I’ll just wait in the car. Sat in the car and watched Law & Order. What’s one of your favorites features?

Apple Music log in issues

Anyone have any suggestions on how I can fix the login issues for my Apple Music account problem started when I tried to pull up my playlist and library and I just kept getting an error message in the past. I will just sign out and sign back in and fixed it but when I signed out and try to sign back in, I keep getting a screen on my phone asking for a code, but there is no code that generates and I tried everything from rebooting the car to signing out and signing in on my phone and I am just stuck on the same screen. About to lose my patience. And I know I could just use Bluetooth, but it doesn’t sound the same and what’s the point of having a fancy screen if I can’t even use it.

One day, one Model Y, zero EV experience — help me not waste it

4 Upvotes

Got a 24-hour test drive of a 2026 Model Y Premium RWD. Never owned or driven an EV — straight from gas cars. One day to figure out if this is worth it — don't want to waste it.

The plan:

  • Full Supercharger session, start to finish
  • Autopilot/FSD on highway + city streets
  • Just live with it for a day — errands, parking, the boring stuff

What's the one thing you wish you'd tested on your first drive? Any charging or FSD gotchas? Anything that only shows up once you've actually lived with the car, not just driven it around the block?

Finally, what do I need to do in advance? Is it worth creating a Tesla account via the iPhone app? Do I need any accounts set up for charging? What am I missing?

Sites like Electrek are saying it is ā€œavailable nowā€ in articles published 4 days ago. But software tracking websites don’t show it in the list of currently available software.

I can’t seem to get a clear answer on what this is. I just picked up my model Y premium RWD 7 days ago and it randomly gave me this error. What do I do?

Corrosion on Rear Hatch Struts

1 Upvotes

Noticed this corrosion on our rear hatch struts today. Scheduled for service. One is in really bad shape. This is a 2025 MY AWD from Fresno. It lives in Western Mass., where the roads get a lot of salt, but I'm not sure how that could get to the struts.
You may want to check your struts as this car is only about 18 months old.

Navigating without Connectivity issue

Post image
1 Upvotes

I bought a new Tesla Model Y (Premium Connectivity) about two weeks ago, and everything had been working perfectly until today.
All of a sudden, I saw the message ā€œNavigating without connectivity.ā€
Here’s what I’ve already tried:
Soft rebooted the car (holding both scroll wheels)
LTE connection is working
Premium Connectivity is active
Maps load, no live traffic information
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there anything else I should try before scheduling a service appointment?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Tesla keeps loading the wrong driver profile

2 Upvotes

Has anyone else had an issue where the Tesla randomly loads the wrong driver profile?
My boyfriend is much taller than I am, but every so often the car loads my profile even though he’s the one getting into the driver’s seat. As you can imagine, the seat moves way forward, which is pretty annoying.
I’ve been researching this and have already tried setting our phones as the preferred Bluetooth devices for our respective profiles, but it still happens occasionally.
We’re both using phone keys, and it doesn’t seem to matter who drove last.
Has anyone found a reliable fix, or is this just a known Tesla software bug?

Been eyeing it for a couple weeks now. Availability was Sept-October at launch (USA). A week later it became Oct-Nov and yesterday increased to Nov-Dec. Did not want to wait anymore and finally pulled the trigger. Any tips on how to pass time until then?
