First come first served, or just be really lucky. Last time I used TDC in a mall was before Model Y deliveries pre-March time. That time all the Model 3 also rushing like crazy.

Hi, anyone can comment how good/ bad is the Tesla navigation compare to Google map/ waze? Didn't test this during my test drive unfortunately. I remember reading somewhere that premium connectivity will enable traffic information.
*
Totally bad, it is just using Google Map for the map and traffic. Perhaps when the Tesla's AI kicks in, it should improve by then. The navigation is totally terrible... I usually just leave the navigation to the location but mute the sound for the SoC estimation.

QUOTE(jimcarrey @ Oct 8 2024, 02:38 PM)
Tesla uses Google Maps for mapping, live traffic, and destination info.
Cannot beat Waze la.

Got one time it directs me to a one way road (and i am going towards the opposite direction) wtf.
So end up i just buy a holder and uses Waze for those newer/further places.
The daily nearby one i use the Tesla nav.
*
Hahaha, at times can terus turn right but the navigation ask to go forward and do u-turn.

Can i get opinion on white seats from owners?  Can tahan?  Have 2 kids on child seats, so undecided between black or white seats. 

White seats gives the car a different feel.....
*
Ini sounds like my friend... haha has white seat but end up using seat covers which makes the car feels damn cheap.

Dont worry too much, cleaning wise just use non alcohol baby wipes and microfiber cloth. I have 1 just to clean the seats. I also bought the chemical guys total interior cleaner, but have yet the need to use it.

After a month+ of usage i do notice some light marks / wrinkles at the side bolster

Edit: However if i were to choose again, i would definitely still go for white interior again.
*
Black color also hare wrinkles... just normal wear and tear no issue. My friend's one had some marking from the seat belts for the rear seats.

Thanks for your opinion on the white seats.

Placed an order for a performance model with black interior about a week ago, loan all sorted, EDD is end of November.  I saw white seats version in inventory, so very tempted to go for it in the hope that maybe I can get car way earlier...
*
If you're buying SR model, the white is definitely nicer as the white panel on the doors is I think leather?

SR black color is the cloth... if LR/P then you get suede.

Yes.  For P with suede, with white colour, not sure if it is white suede or other kind of material...

I think the white are all leather wrapped if not mistaken regardless which trim level.

The current LR AWD's range on 18 inch wheels is 678km (629km on 19 inch wheels) so it is actually not too far off from the new LR RWD's range of 702km (640km on 19 inch wheels). If the price of the new LR RWD isn't cheaper by much then I think the LR AWD is still the better pick.
*
M3LR 18” is 550km at 100% SoH, so EPA is 141 Wh/km, 77.6 kWh battery pack.

Dual motor = 77.6/678=114 Wh/km…
Single motor LR = 77.6/702=111 Wh/km…
Single motor LFP = 60/513=117 Wh/km…

Aiks, how come the NMC is more efficient than the LFP WLTP ratings.

Somehow I realized some brands their WLTP very close to actual driving but for Model 3 very much different 😂

Good calculation and I want to know why too lmao. Maybe the NMC battery is more or less as efficient as the LFP battery when the driver is not throttling hard and trying to reach the WLTP claim.

Yes Tesla is very different in showing the estimated range. Based on my understanding, the estimated range shown in a Tesla is actually EPA estimates (550km) instead of their marketed WLTP estimates (678km). I think this is a good approach as it gives driver a more accurate estimates but again I think Tesla could have just marketed the EPA range instead of WLTP range which is harder to achieve in reality.
*
I'm starting to think there's "different" WLTP measurements all around...

Tesla's WLTP seems a bit tad too high vs actual.

Cars like Smart #1 and Xpeng G6 has so so WLTP, but actual usage pretty good.

Does not work, or is extremely slow. The plate is made of metal, it’s blocking the radio frequency.

Hi all Tesla owners, would like to check a few things on Autopilot

1) what is the max speed we can set on AP ?

2) during my test drive and turn on AP, when I manually turn the streering to avoid motorbike, the AP auto cancelled and system release throttle at the same time which make the car start to regen & braking, is the car able to set AP on throttle only but no streering control?

3) lets say on highway, if we are on AP and I manually changed lane, the AP will be cancelled also is it true? Anyway to avoid this? Make the AP remain active after I manually changed lane

Thanks!
*
1) 140 km/h
2) Yes, use the TACC. I set for single click TACC, double click Autosteer.
3) Either you get eAP, or S3XY Commander that automatically enables back Autosteer. If you just use TACC, then no issue can just continue.

I personally use TACC a lot more than Autosteer on the highway.

They should ensure RFID integrated with toll payment before rolling it out, don’t waste our money to fix multiple RFID and in the end after this integration and implementation then throw away the existing RFID?
*
Yes, this is why I'm reluctant to change to the new plate. Only pull factor is when it is integrated into our RFID toll payment.

I got a friend who interested on M3 rwd with 18 inch wheel. Wondering if using 18inch wheel the M3 standard is still 513km WLTP or maybe more?
*
As far as I am aware,

Standard Range WLTP is with 18"
Long Range WLTP is with 19"

I just think the WLTP range is pretty much off for Tesla cars laugh.gif . More sensible to follow their EPA ratings which is also what is shown in the car. My drives in Melaka gets less than EPA also, even if I drive like a granny.

M3SR 18" 438km
M3LR 18" 550km

Thats very low. Are you sure about this? SR with 18” doesn’t even reach 450km but the SA said it should reach about 500km
*
brows.gif looks like you got to read up about EPA, WLTP, NEDC, CLTC etc.

For my driving pattern in Melaka town, I get below EPA ratings. I'm driving LR 18"... averaging 160 wh/km, so that gives me about 481km at most. This is assuming I continuously driving... no parking car with sentry mode turned on.

For electric cars, isn't it supposed to be more efficient in city drive and less efficient for highway driving?
Anyway, I can see that Tesla's range and efficiency is off by a big margin compared to other manufacturers. The Koreans seem to be the most accurate. Tesla's range shown in the car doesn't even change when the AC is on or off. And some idiots complain that other EVs range become shorter when on AC but Tesla is the best no changes when on AC.
*
If you are referring to the range shown in the main UI, that is based on EPA and your battery remaining. It does not take into account your driving pattern or AC settings.

However, if you want one that estimates based on your past 10km or 50km driving behaviour then simply go to Energy app.

Among so many other brands of WLTP... I think Tesla one kinda overinflated.

Other cars actual pretty close to their WLTP...!

Ok that makes sense but that means that China's CLTC which claims to be using the benchmark for city driving is even more ridiculous (I heard some reviewers say that China's CLTC/NEDC were meant for China city driving conditions).

Tesla is also cheating customers by using the higher WLTP range which is unattainable in their promo materials. Nowadays cannot trust any companies.
*
Actually I've not seen any reviewers achieving the WLTP for Tesla. I feel Tesla's WLTP damn off la compared to the rest sweat.gif

M3LR 18" is 141 Wh/km for the EPA ratings, I think is about 110 Wh/km for WLTP...

I've only gotten 110 Wh/km drive when driving late at night... smooth road... between 80-90 km/h lol.

Yes,I also LR 18",
if driving in mrr2 /kesas/elite , with constant speed ard 80km/h
Then only Can get ard 110wh/km

Avg for the whole year is 151wh/km
Mix city + highway driving 50/50
*
There is then another issue with the car Wh/km indicator… which never right and usually reports lower. The right one if you are able to reverse calculate from energy app is accurate (matches to those third party data such as Tessie). Not sure which usage is the bottom right one excluding off.

It seems like Tesla has secretly removed the supercharger 'pin' at Ipoh that was pinned for more than a year. Damn what is going on with the long awaited Ipoh supercharger?

I have seen this pin disappearing and then appearing back again a few times now... someone always following this up at TTK group.

Going to get my car soon. For Penang area, any recommended tint shop that is experienced in tinting Tesla?

I am thinking to go for Tesla 3m package but it's expensive for the offered package.

Penang I think during the first batch is Nanomatrix... can check them out.
