also can anyone tell me why these two numbers are different? I’ve literally selected no extra options. I must be missing something obvious.
I assume Juniper will mean no more steering wheel stalks (like the M3), so personally, I’m aiming to get a Model Y before those are gone! I wouldn’t mind that rear screen for the kids though…
Nothing obvious about shipping to US and other LHD countries first. Model 3 refresh was available to RHD at same time as other markets and came from Shanghai, notably also ahead of availability in US. Mod Y is currently produced in Shanghai, Germany and US so its not evident that RHD markets will be delayed. As to timing of availability ..thats another question
Well financially it’s almost always better to hold on to your current car for as long as possible. But the Model Y refresh hasn’t even been announced yet and will obviously start shipping in the US and other LHD countries before it comes here so you may be waiting a very long time
What’s anyone’s opinion on holding out for the Juniper? We’re a low mileage family but our 5008 is starting to feels its age and wondering whether to get the Model Y now or hold out until next year
The classic Tesla weakness is coming to the crest of a hill into low sun, that's its weakest area
Many things can happen.. I find that you normally have to keep an eye out for the following situations:
I agree, the sudden braking is often quite dangerous. Recognising the above helps reduce the number of incidents but I do often wonder to myself, does the car behind me think that I'm brake checking them for no apparent reason. They must be thinking WTF is this A** doing.
Need more information to be able to determine what happened. Did a car beside you enter your lane, were you going under a bridge, did the speed limit change, are the cameras dirty etc... Many things can cause this.
Best way to use the ACC is to keep your weight on your heel and be ready to tap the accelerator if required.
Have a MY RWD 2024 model and whilst on cruise control the car phantom braked in heavy traffic on the motorway and nearly caused an accident. On another part of the motorway with no obstruction and very light traffic the car did it again. Renegaged cruise control and it did it again. This is really dangerous. Has anyone experience of this happening to them. Have raised a service ticket with Tesla and shocked this actually happening.
But it can be implemented in software as I have mentioned above, enhance auto have found a way to do it via their add ons which essentially just sit on the canbus

Yes, but only for the driver's seat. To replicate for the passenger side would require additional cabling and nickel and dime Musk ain't gonna spend nuttin extra.
Enhance Auto s3xy buttons / knob offer some basic functionality on passenger seat adjustments, recent enogh feature.
Actually now that you mention it, I think I overlooked that. So maybe it is technically possible.
I would think this is an easy win for Tesla, with little difficulty to implement.
surely the fact the rear screen in a M3H can do this means it wouldn’t be that difficult.
Hardly a feature that will make its way up the priority list within Tesla ..to cater for passengers who fall asleep and where the driver wants to independently adjust the passengers seat to make them more comfortable (aside from any safety considerations)! I would not hold your breath
I wouldn't expect the feature to be implemented but it should be possible. The driver profile based seat setup and easy entry features require there to be a path for control/comms between the computer system and the seat motors.
The motors are in the seat. the switch is connected to the motors.
I wouldn’t hold my breath on being able to control them from the screen IMO.
Yeah, more or less the same thing really.. hopefully they take it on board.. I guess we'll see if they implement it or not in future update.. one can hope 😄
Not sure about the falling asleep passenger, but would be very handy for adjusting the seat for elderly passengers who are unable to adjust themselves for easy exit/entry, or just making the seat more comfortable for them.
Tried that, the Chat bot from Ask A Question is worse than useless..
I did a bit of googling earlier, saw someone mentioned in forum posts that emailing them (ideas@tesla.com) worked.
Anyway fired off an email to ask them to consider implementing seat adjustment controls on the screen for those times where the front passenger fell asleep and this would allow the driver to adjust the seat to a more comfortable position without the need to crawl over. Can't see why it is not possible. Anyway we will see how it goes.
If it’s to do with customer service, you’d be better off to find a nice stone wall and talk to that.
In the App,if you go in to Service, you can ask a question. Maybe get some info there.
Curious thought, is there any way to send feedback/suggestion to Tesla?
Collecting my MY this week. Have been looking up some inspection checklists ahead of it, want to make sure I give it a good once over before leaving with it. Any advice or tips for common issues specific on the Y that folks have heard or seen when collecting their own car?
There are a few guides on YouTube on how to tackle door rattles yourself, I'm reluctant to do anything until I've exhausted the service centre though as they'd probably tell me my warranty was void if I removed the panel myself.
Had to reschedule my appointment I had with them tomorrow, next available slot was August 20th.
🤦
warranty?
Or remove for card and see if there’s something loose.
New girlfriend?
Ok so I've developed the first noticeable rattle at 40k. It's coming from the passenger door and is only noticeable at motorway speeds but it is fair annoying. Applying some pressure to the door with an elbow while driving gets rid of it. Unfortunately I can't seem to convince the girlfriend to keep he elbow in the same position for the full journey. Any thoughts on how I'll go about trying to sort it out.
yes first time I noticed the wipers reacted to the different levels of rain quiet well. Hope I haven’t poxed it now
