Pet mode notice is not enough, apparently.

A kind animal lover left a note on my windshield earlier.

Fortunately, he didn't break any windows.

Do you guys do anything to make your pet mode stand out, like a sign in the window?

Spiders Love My M3

2 Upvotes

I’d always notice a spider web outside my car, below the driver’s side whenever I am about to go somewhere. For more context, I had surgery 3 months ago and didn’t drive my car for 2 months, but have been driving this past month. I never thought to check the crevice of the car door until today when I noticed it was a huge web and I saw a spider. I evicted the spider via a straw wrapper and drove away.

When I returned home to unload my groceries from my backseat, I discovered MORE SPIDERS IN THE BACK DRIVERS SIDE DOOR. I vacuumed the family of spiders up and let them go far far far away. It was horrible. Anyways, spiders seem to really love my model 3…

According to the Tesla app, taking this ferry takes 6 hrs and 60% of a model YLR battery. I wonder what the speed limit in the sea is!

Roadside Assistance was Horrible

17 Upvotes

I had a blowout today. Tesla roadside assistance told me they would be there in an hour and had mobile service in the area. It was all BS. I was in a bad spot. The person messaging did not seem to care and told me to go walk away and leave the car. I had to wait 4 hours before someone came to fix the tire. The tech was great! He could not believe the dispatch was so poor and left the car in such an unsafe spot. Use caution if using Tesla roadside assistance.

V14 Lite trial start date

Since v14 lite is out and I assume the AI wants data to digest, when is the free trial going to happen? They’ve done it before and I’m just assuming they will do it again.

I’m going to file for diminished value since I had it for 15 HOURS before the crash. The original post (which I’ll link below) was about a day or two after the crash and I was really frustrated.

Damn Im stupid

I woke up at 7:00 this morning. I went to charge my car but the charging port door wouldnt open

I tried all tricks: rebooting the car, pulling the mechanical release cable

After scheduling the mobile service (its a week out), I realize something: why is the release cable on the left when the door is on the right?

I was trying to open a non existing door 🤦🏽‍♂️

I have had this 2025 M3 for 8 months now

For those on the Fence about Wider Tires (M3P)

22 Upvotes

I wanted to swap to an all-season tire (Ohio) and have had good experiences with the Continental Extreme Contacts on other vehicles. I decided to move from the 235/35/20 to the 255/35/20 for ride quality and better protection for the wheel face.

There has been some noticeable ride quality improvements - defintely not as pronounced as moving to an 18" wheel setup, but noticeable. Most of my driving is shorter sprints to work (~30 miles a day) but we have some rough roads in central Ohio.

Hopefully this helps those trying to make this decision visualize what the fitment looks like on stock Ubers.

Subtle visual customization

4 Upvotes

We have probably around 15 stealth grey Juniper’s in our office car park. Looking at a reg to identify your own car is probably what everyone should do, but to be honest even I am guilty of pulling someone else’s door handle. Where another person tried to tug the charging cable out of my car multiple times only to realize that his Tesla was the one on the opposite side. What are the subtle changes that can be made to clearly distinguish one’s car, without making it tacky?

This guy truly came up so fast even if I was looking for him I likely wouldn’t have seen him. The good news is I always look if changing lanes now that lane splitting is legal here. The better news, FSD saw him before I did and moved out of his way while simultaneously confusing me until I realized what happened and said, “holy shit, that was awesome.”

Making the switch

Finally took the leap and I am moving into a M3 from a BMW. This is my first ever EV and I am super excited.

I ordered the car on the 14th and my delivery window is from the 23rd of July to August 5th. Are these timelines pretty accurate? How long does it usually take to get an update from when the car is in production to when it’s in transit? (I am located in Southern California)
