This is hands down the best video I've seen for the use of my new Model 3. Thanks Andy!

Great tips! Not sure if it was mentioned, but for your windshield wipers - tapping the end of the left stalk, as you mentioned, brings up the speeds on the screen. Instead of tapping on your screen you can also increase the speed by pressing your left scroll wheel to the left or the right to increase or decrease the wiper speed. I found this to be easier than tapping on the screen.

Hey Andy, just got my first ever Tesla this morning and this video was amazing to watch. Thank you.

Get that fifth shortcut button in your phone app for your quick buttons! Touch and hold the left side of the second from right icon and drag it as far to the right of your phone screen to open up the fifth slot. Drag another icon up from the bottom available icons.

Жыл бұрын

There's a mythbusters episode from years ago where they tested everything from 40ft to 2ft, but with a gas car. Should still apply to electric though, probably even more so. I think they found it increased up to about 20ft, and then decreased after that, but 20ft is way too close even with auto emergency braking. At that distance the truck driver cannot see you in their mirrors. 40ft still saw a noticable increase in fuel economy and is *reasonably* safe, though the driver still might be able to see you. Even without drafting, you'll still see a significant increase in efficiency due to driving slower.

Does it work on the 2020/2021 models, pre-facelift and facelift? 😊

Hi andy i have just bought the new model 3 2024 i dont know which battery i have, should i charge to 100% or 90%?

20:08 BTW: this is an amazing vid. I'm raising some questions about a few items or related to some of the items in it, but I don't wish to be seen as critical of the vid, even the items I'm questioning. anyone who is planning to get a Model 3/Y like me or are a blessed soul who already has one should have this vid downloaded. to the point: Some videos I've watch (like wham bam tesla cam) where the save on honk setting was set were cut short at the point of honking when there would otherwise have been much more interesting and perhaps important information after the honk. Was this due to some error on the owner's part or does the Tesla stop recording for a few seconds while it "saves" the pre-honk video, or is it a matter of media speed on the usb drive?

The tire pressure written on the tire is the maximum pressure the tire is rated for. You should not pump the tires to this pressure. When you drive, the tire will heat up and exceed this pressure. The tires will wear unevenly and there is the possibility of a blowout.

@11:35 I saw in another video that Tesla had removed the percent offset over/under speed limit, leaving only mph or kph offset available. I find that weird and unfortunate, as I would prefer percentage, as on the highway I like to keep up with most of the traffic and find that "speeding" by around 10 mph on the highway and divided multilane secondary roads, but prefer to stay much closer to the speed limit or maybe even a little under in residential and urban streets. A 13% offset for FSD would give me close to 79 mph in 70 zone and 22 in 20 zone, without me have to fiddle with the speed. Do note: I won't be ordering my first Tesla (a Model Y LR AWD) before I can be sure it will have HW4, but it will be before they go stalkless, as I really, really want the stalk controls for turn signals, autopilot, brights and windshield wipers (i'm ambivalent regarding shifting/parking brake)

I've always thought especially the older S with metal frames on the centre screen should have had capacitive detection of swipes on the screen trim metal... then you could set the left vertical side to a quick volume slider and say the bottom to whatever else, fan speed or temp. Or wipers...

23:30 do you think the recent tesla over air update autopilot "recall" might ruin this?

That's a great point. When I manually park in tight spaces I make sure to leave a little more room on the drivers side, but I don't think autopark will do that.

I am researching EV car models and I always wanted a tesla. I own a gas suv 2021 and I am looking at even tesla or toyota ev/ hybrid. I am leaning to tesla after watching your video and should have bought one. Lesson learned and looking forward to own a tesla soon. I want tesla Y.

I'm only 2 mins in, but in winter climates not using brakes ruins them due to salty ice slush. I'd love if Tesla had (or is it implemented) and option to also mimic the regen braking with actual brake use nearing trip destination. In Norway swapping brakes every two years seems to be an actual thing due to pit rusting etc. and very limited use on EVs. Applying brakes at the end of every trip would have a beneficial effect. I also know this by first hand experience on my old corolla which I do not use daily, the brake discs just rusted like hell from just not being used and the car being out all year in all kinds of weather.

But also make sure to actually use your brakes hard some times to not destroy them! A few times a month at least you should break hard with the break pedal

Andy I noticed in your app not sure if you are aware that you can have 5 icons I see you only have 4 it’s a good hack to force 5

Great video…. New Tesla y performance here…. But from everything I have read or seen , they recommend 80% max charge for daily. You’re literally the first person recommending 90%. Are you sure this is good to do?
