Tesla Model Y

Mmm. Maybe I do need to check the alignment.

Out of the crate the MY lights are set too high.

Anytime I am blinded by oncoming lights in a suburban setting in the last 2 years or so I always look to see the brand, and 9/10 times it's a Model Y at fault.

As Cyrus notes, park up facing a wall or a window and set the lights to point down a couple of clicks in the service menu.

Hey guys, thinking on getting a model Y in Jan, what efficiency are you guys getting? Interested to know about the new 2026 Juniper, if you can specify how many km are you doing and getting would be great!

yeah I did but I assume is not very accurate because I have an ID4 pro plus and not getting anywhere near the values they show there unfortunately, that’s why I was wondering…

For Tesla Mod Y RWD Junipeer see range stats. While it is a simple question unfortunately the answer is more complex as there are multiple variables some controllable (single or multi journey, speed, acceleration) some not controllable (temperature, weather, terrain). The stats below provide some insigths but take note of the notes as cold weather is defined as minus 10!

I think they do cherry pick the nicest models that pop up on trade-in requests where they know the incoming model is likely to be pristine and/or easy to sell.

Nobody wants it. It goes up on an auction website, highest bid less admin expenses is your trade in value. I was very happy with my trade in price.

The interior floor pan of the MYJ is hardly different to the original MY surely?

Is this a marketing exercise to attract Magpie owners of the facelift model?

I would be interested in a heavy duty set for the original MY.

Would like to check, if you are around some evening this week?

Went for a test drive yesterday after successfully sold my previous Tesla earlier this week. It's hard not to be impressed by the Juniper: It feels like a huge jump in refinement over the Model 3 we had.

Tried adjusting the lights but no joy. Last night was unbelievable the amount of people flashing me. Heavy rain seems to make it worse. The only conclusion I can come to is they're just not good enough to leave fully automated.

There are so many factors, terrain, bends, distance. Distance is the worst. I can be driving behind someone and its 100% full beam. It doesn't work until it sees the car ahead (i.e until it shows on the screen) which is too close. They need to dip much sooner. It also dips as soon as people flash, which just shows how sh!t it is. It can obviously see the cars, it just doesn't know they are oncoming headlights until its trigger with a flash. Its a really obnoxious implementation.

I've figured out one press dips them and a long press (1-2) seconds sets it back to auto full beams. Timing is important because a quick second press flashes the beams.

It's far from perfect and not a proper solution to the issue. Engaging autopilot sets them back to full beams, immediately blinding people for about 2 seconds until the matrix does its dimming.

So the only solution I have is to control them manually and don't engage autopilot.

It's a major issue. I can't believe there isn't bigger out cry. I guess most people have street lighting.

As someone who drives 90% of the time in pitch black, I wish I had known this before buying the car. Honestly feel that strongly about it. A truly awful implementation.
