I sent this to my wife who has a M3 and hates the changes from the update. Your video helped us both. Another great thing about Tesla is how we all try to help one another. Thx
Oh good!!!!! That makes me so happy! I’m here for the ladies, to break it down in ways we can understand 😂 yes, I agree 💯 even in all my videos people will teach me things in the comments or teach each other. I absolutely love everything about the TESLA community. If only the rest of the world helped each other as much as we do:)
Sara: You have risen to be my "Tesla teacher". I haven't found anyone else who's unleashed so many pointers on our latest update. Since Tesla doesn't have a dept of Education (yet), you do admirable job! Thanks to Jasper... and others for discovering more features...
🤩 Carl, I am HONORED!!!!!!! That is the biggest compliment ever I think! That’s all I want to do is teach people about this amazing car! Just because I love it! 🙏
Hello, What an amazing video! Your ability to sift through reams of data and put the data in an easy-to-understand mode is absolutely incredible! I am grateful for your attention and your time, in creating, producing, and editing your wonderful videos!
Great work Sara, you are Awesome! Marc Wiens said to have success with UA-cam channel, do something that people need. You did it! I really needed this. Thank you!
Really great and useful video Sara. Spent most of my trip earlier trying out some of the tips you gave in this video. Admittedly voice commands for seat heaters didn't work to well with a British accent much to the amusement of my wife 🙂 Keep up the fab work!
Thanks for the video. I appreciate the time and effort to research all of the options. I learned a lot about the calls, contacts and text messages. It's great that so many people are looking to you for help. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for telling me what you learned, Jeffrey!!! Yes, I’m so happy I’m actually helping people! And you’ve been here since the very beginning! 💚 Thanks for your support!
Since I reserved my M3 I’ve been watching Tesla how to videos non-stop. I’m so glad I found you! I can relate to you so much better than all the guys out there. You go into greater depth and I’m really learning. Can’t wait to get my car! Tesla should be paying you! Or at least sponsors should! Keep up the good work. I subscribed so I’ll keep watching content you put out. Thank you for being Awesome!
Thank you, Lisa!!!!!! That is why I made this channel! For all the women out there that are trying to make the switch, or just did! If you have any questions, just let me know! I don’t have all these answers, but I’ll try!
Hahaha thank you! They are seriously the cutest most comfortable slippers I’ve ever had! If you have a girlfriend or wife.. get them! Target $10.00. Several colors! True to size but you can maybe go one size down.
These were great in-depth tips. I haven't seen anyone do them so concise. I'm an IT guy and when we're trying to instruct employees I do this. I go through the process myself and document the steps. In my case I take screenshots along the way as if I'm putting together a user manual. Video instructions like yours will be a big help as a potential new Tesla owner. I'll certainly refer back to them in June when I take delivery. Thanks...!!
Thank you so so much! I figured out over 90% of this stuff on my own by trial and error. I don’t watch other peoples videos hardly ever. And the user manual wasn’t updated yet. So I really appreciate you noticing. And that is EXACTLY how I do it too! Pictures step by step and notes! Then video! I do it at work to for surgery. This is an actual self made user manual. And it was a lot of work and a lot of mistakes to figure it out! 💚
Sweet, thanks for the update! I love getting the chance to see the menus to get a preview of what I will see on my delivery day (getting closer, maybe March!). I keep having to fix things on my 2009 Murano, (replaced the A/C compressor, a 12 v battery, now an alternator) and I keep thinking “Gaaa, I could have bought neat accessories for my new Model Y instead!” At least my Subaru still works, so I’m keeping that one forever. I’m hoping the Model Y will go 10 years without any major repairs. Thanks for showing the details and minor upkeep issues, it’s really helpful. When delivery day gets down to “weeks away”, I’m going to get that giddy feeling I used to get as a kid waiting for Chrismas! Actually, this IS my Christmas present, but it’s a few months late. Thanks, Sara, for all your videos!
Oh wow, first off. I here you. Right after I ordered my Tesla my other car broke down. I know all about that!! Second, ahhhhhhh! I’m so freaking excited for you!!!!! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and keep me posted! You have supported me for a long time! I appreciate you so much!!!
I can’t wait to join the Tesla experience. I love to add things to my vehicles, and am unafraid to pop panels, add accessories and cool looking things. I love your videos and really enjoy your enthusiasm. Keep up the great work!
Nice!!!! Let me know if you have any questions! I’ll try my best;) where did you purchase yours from? Are you happy with it, and did you get a good deal? People have asked me if it’s worth it getting a used one and I say yes if you can makes sure the battery is in good condition. I’ve always had used cars myself.
Awwwww Thank you!!! Yeah, I released my true self in a few videos like new Tesla bug discovered and I bought a Tesla cybertruck by hot wheels, and my Halloween video.. but aside from those I’m usually trying to focus on the content that I need to teach. One day maybe I can fully have fun while still shutting up and getting to the dang point! 😂 I appreciate you!
This the most useful Tesla video I have seen in years of viewing. I can’t believe UA-cam has just now suggested your videos. I hope subscribing and liking will let others find you.
Rick, you have NO IDEA how much I truly appreciate this comment! I just started this channel a year ago so I’m still super new. It’s actually very hard to get UA-cam to suggest your videos even if you sort of know what you need to do to help the algorithm. That UA-cam algorithm is harsh 😂 and very very picky. But no hard feelings, it’s only a software. But yes, subscribing and liking definitely helps, so thank you so very much for your support. Have a wonderful week and welcome to the channel!!!
You're awesome Sara. Thanks for your doing your homework and educating us. I'm awaiting delivery of my Model 3 in the next few weeks so this is really helpful.
Ahhhhhh! Congratulations!!!!! Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!! Good, save it to your watch later;) Happy to help! Make sure you watch my video tomorrow about rebooting your car. Will need that one too! Thanks for your support!
Thank you, I really appreciate that. It took me a long time to figure everything out and put it together. The hardest thing was the tire pressure. I actually figured everything out myself aside from the two voice commands the Johns told me about. No cheating 😂 even the user manual wasn’t updated yet. But I’m really glad that so many people are learning stuff from this video. I wasn’t sure if everyone had figured this stuff out yet or not it took me so long to get the video done and edited. Have a great weekend!
@@SaraJAwesome think you’re making everyone lazy and we’re waiting for you to do all the hard work! 😳 can’t wait to learn more so you better get on it! 😂
This update meant relearning the entire system and I just simply gave up. Happy to stumble upon your video! Thanks for doing all the hard work so I can enjoy the technology of my 3.
Oh my gosh, I’m so happy I was able to help you get used to it!!!! I mean I love 90% of the update. But this was a hard video to make for sure. Trying to figure everything out on my own. The only things I learned from someone else were the two voice commands from the two different Johns. The rest took me about 2 weeks to figure it all out. So I understand. Then the tire pressure I didn’t get it figured out 100 until the night was editing and realized I did it wrong the first 3 times. Sigh. It was a huge update and the user manual was not updated with it. But we made it, Patti! And overall, I am in love and I hope you can enjoy it a lot more now. I didn’t even cover half the stuff! Just the things that people specifically asked me about that they couldn’t figure out. Insane! Thanks for your support! Have a great week!
Sara you are the new "Tesla for Dummies" video book for me! Thank you for your time and effort in putting this video tutorial together. I've had my Y since November 2021 and still learn stuff about it. Looking forward to your future videos.
Haha! You know, after I made this channel I wished that I did name it TESLA for Dummies! I loved those books back in the day. Still have one! But then I was like well some people might get turned off by that title or maybe copyright might be a problem.. but basically that’s my idea for the channel. Make TESLA so easy that no one is intimidated by these beautiful machines anymore! Congratulations on your baby, and thanks for your support!
Great review. I have found my best way to change fan speed with VC is using the words "set" and "at". For example "set fan speed at seven". With different vernacular, I'd get all sorts of speeds.
👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅ Nice one! I’ll try that. I think I have adjusted the fan speed before with something similar but I usually just use my hand. I need to start using VC more for multiple reasons. Thanks for the tip! Hopefully others will read it!
Hey Sarah! Thank you so much for this video, I learned a lot from watching it and I watched it from start to finish! The one thing I picked up on that you missed was that in order to get your Blindspot camera to work when you signal during driving you have to go into the menu screen & enable it, before it will work! Cheers!
Thank you Theodore!!! Ah yes, sorry I didn’t put that in there. I hadn’t had any questions about that so I didn’t include it. I figured everyone was able to find it. Now I’m kicking myself 😂 I appreciate you so much, have a great weekend!!!
Hi Sara, just found your channel here in Ireland 🇮🇪. Due to get my first Tesla M3 RWD in 2-3 weeks. Loving the channel and loved your diary of notes📝 . Must go watch some more. 🚙
Great video Sara! I watched the entire video lots of great information. I am currently still waiting to be a Tesla owner it has been 11 weeks since I placed my order. I live in Canada (Toronto) and your videos have been amazing. Thanks again!
Really awesome and detailed video! You worked so hard and we appreciate it! Great work, will have to keep this pinned for when my Model 3 arrives in a few weeks!
Thank you so much! Yes, I really did. It was definitely a hard one for me. And the editing took several hours. Plus reshooting. Ugh, but so worth it thanks to comments like yours! I’m excited for you!!!
Besides just seeing your pretty face you were extremely informative and the video of the actual steps involved for each item made it much easier to learn the program changes. I am going to pass your YT site to my other Tesla friends, they could use your help. Thanks
You have no idea how much I appreciate this comment! I’m so happy I was able to help you! Yes, I would greatly appreciate you sharing my channel. That would be AMAZING, Thank you!!!!!
I can't believe I watched from start to finish. Thank you for making this video. I ordered my 2022 Model 3 Performance last Monday and it said I had 3 months to wait and then this morning it says June 6th to July 4th. I was told it's because I bought the Red exterior with the White interior plus the Performance model that my production was going to move fast versus the other models that people have to wait for until 2023. I would have just bought the original car I really wanted and that was a new BMW M3 Competition but this thing is $35,000 cheaper, a hair faster and I don't have to spend $7.00 + per gallon here in Southern California. Anyway, you made the video so smooth for me anyway and I like your tone, your pitch/delivery of what could be done and your experiences. Though I am a few weeks away from getting my new ride, I have drowned myself in Tesla videos and out of the 10 or so videos I have watched, you by far are the best. You obviously exemplify professionalism in every sense of the word. ~DC
I’m too short on time to answer with a long reply, but I appreciate these words so so much. Congratulations and welcome to the family! Let me know if you have any questions at all and I will try my best to answer them.
Awesome SaraJAwesome! Good to see you again since your AC coil cleaning video! Still smells nice in my Tesla again. Hope all is well with you. Thanks and happy new year to you!!
Yes! I still have not had any odor since I cleaned my coils and changed the filters! I’m so happy! My method and choice of equipment was a success! I also started turning the heater on from my phone at night for 10-15 min when I’m done driving all day. Only after days of heavy A/C use in the summer. Works like a charm to dry the housing and keep bacteria gone. Glad yours smells nice too!
Thank you Sara! You truly are awesome! You are so personable and I learn so much from your videos! I am waiting to order my Model 3 long range until congress gets it’s act together and passes the tax credits. Fingers crossed. I will continue watching after I take delivery. Keep up the good work 😊
New subscribed…great great video…thank you! I have a Model Y ordered so this kind of info is great for me. Keep these types of videos coming…thanks again
Sarah, thanks for your awesome videos. I had a 2016 Model X that I sold in 2020. I just purchased a new 2022 Model X and couldn’t wait to get on the 101 and start using the cruise control and lane change feature but the lane change didn’t work. I thought something just needed a reset and, unless you have another idea, I’m bummed that it’s now a feature in the full self driving option that I have to purchase for $12,000 ‼️
Hey Sara! Thank you for the info! I’m waiting for my MY in a few more months, but its good to start getting acquainted with the new updates. I’m now a new sub. Cheers and keep up the great material!
Another awesome update. I'm going to make sure that my wife sits and watches this one so she can better understand all of the new features in the Holiday update.
Yes!!!!!! Hopefully it will explain things easier! The female brain.. that’s what I bring to the TESLA table! 😂 let me know if y’all have any questions! Thank you both!!!!!
Thank you!!!! Yeah, it was super weird how similar the icons were at first to me. But the red dot made a lightbulb 💡 turn on in my brain. Like ohhhh okay. Makes sense.
Thanks! Yeah… I had to take 5 videos down because they accidentally shows my street:(… I need to fix them and re-upload but it’s so much work. And it was only for like 1 sec but it was still in them. Gosh darn it. Definitely my tip to everyone! Use Mars! 😂
Nice tutorial. I was unaware of "save that". I have a tip for you. I had to reset my cellphone (reset cell provider, wifi and Bluetooth). While the phone continued to worked as a key to get into the car, Bluetooth was no longer connected for phone calls, messages, contacts etc. I had to go into the Bluetooth settings and "forget" my phone (even doing this, the phone continues to work as a key). I then added it back as a new Bluetooth device. That worked. Kind of an obscure tip, but one that will drive one crazy if you have this problem.
👆👆👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅✅ Everyone read! Ohhhhh, I’m glad you brought this up! I actually have had to mess with that before. But not for this same issue. That’s a very good tip!!!! I’m glad you got it fixed, because yeah that can drive one mad for sure! Thank you, Russ! Always happy to here what you have to say! Have a great week!!!!
Ahhhhhhh! Congratulations to you! 🎉🥳🎊🎈🍾🤩Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!!!! Let me know if you have any questions at all, and I’ll try my best! Thank you for your support, and have a wonderful week!
It really did! I wasn’t lying! And it was unexpected. I wasn’t a TESLA fan until I took delivery. Thanks for checking out my other videos! One of my favorites is a mechanics daughters story. It shows who I really am 😂
Thank you Sara! These are extremely helpful tips which isn’t surprising since all your videos are well thought out and beautifully presented. I love how passionate you are about your Tesla. I am too! I really love it and I am a huge car nut. Owned 24 cars in my lifetime which is a little insane. But from my earliest days I have been drawn to cars. Have you always had such passion for cars or is it the Tesla in particular that captures your attention?
I’m really happy to learn about the set temperature voice command. I find the climate control to be a lot more tricky since the latest software update and I didn’t think to use the voice command. Good one!!!
Thank you!!! You should be able to control the fan too. By saying “set fan to level 10” maybe? I can’t remember. And I haven’t tried it since the update yet. Or say “fan level 10” it might work.
@@SaraJAwesome don't forget you can always use the voice command "blow me" to increase fan speed by 1. Best used when Windows are up and no one is nearby...saves the shocked looks 🤣
👆👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅✅ Y’all read this! Thank you! That’s a good one! Hopefully other will read this! Thanks, Robert! I really appreciate that! Have a great week;)
Note.. if you have FSD City Streets Beta (10.8 in my case).. when you tap the camera on the screen while driving, it saves an autopilot clip.. which is NOT the same. I love the "save that" tip. thank you!
I have one on order, will be a few months before i get it though. Whilst this gave me some insight, and I was concentrating, I couldnt help but notice how much you show that massive diamond ring in the way of the tablet. I say this because you use your left hand to point to the screen not your right which surely must be less comfortable? Glad you like it, lol. Really though, im being serious after my joking around about your ring, its a good video.
Thank you for all the tips. As a video production guy I would suggest turning off your auto-focus to stop the focus from changing from the screen to your hand and back again. :)
Thank you, Scott!!! And yes, that’s very good advice on the auto-focus. Unfortunately, I use my iPhone to film… and it doesn’t have the option to turn autofocus off. Ugh. I’ve tried real video cameras, but to be honest I returned them because it’s just so easy and a lot less time consuming to record with my phone and airdrop the videos to my MacBook. Perhaps one day if I ever get big enough to have a camera crew I will get a real camera 🎥 😂 But seriously, thank you. Any and all advice and constructive criticism is ALWAYS welcome here. Have a great week!
Lots of people have given serveral Additional VC suggestions and other ways to save as well in the comments. If you look for these 👆✅ in my replies and read the comments above that I am replying to there is tons of good information! Eventually I’ll do another video including more ways to save and other voice commands;) Thanks for watching!
You have no idea how much I needed this motivation today. Filming the latest video in an hour or so, though it’s hard to make myself today. And last week I just couldn’t get one out. Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day, Fred!
@@SaraJAwesome Aaaaw sending you hugs my friend. They are filled with a wealth of useful information. I visit your page first if I have any issues. They have always helped. Not to mention you're absolutely beautiful. :) sorry i had to add that lol
Well, thank you. Thank you so so much! For all of the above. My personal favorite Tesla UA-camr is Frugal Tesla Guy. In case I don’t have what you need.
Thanks for good hints about v11 features. BUT, could you please make your volume twice as loud? I set volume to max on my end and could barely hear many of your statements. I watch lots of Tesla videos by others on youtube and it is rare i find a video with such low volume.
Hmmm, yes Ill try to make that adjustment. So sorry about that! I hav gotten this complaint before about it being too loud so I need to start watching them on something besides my MacBook before I upload I guess. Thanks for the tip!!!! Always appreciated! Sorry!
@@SaraJAwesome Thanks very much for your reply. IF someone thinks it is too loud they can easily turn down volume. IF someone thinks it is too low, they are stuck if they already maxed out on volume. I would say that I am a regular viewer of your videos and usually the volume is just fine. AND, i appreciate all your insights! Keep up the good work!
hey Sara, 1st time found u this week after my new 2021 TESLA S "Refresh" just got here and wanted to say how much I LUV your video's. They are not only well spoken, well-done they are also SUPER INFORMATIVE ! One quick question? I mainly use my PHONE as a key but when I walk up to my car it "mostly' does not present door handles even though I have that setting turned on ? I did try your excellent Re-Boot suggestions but still, when I walk up my phone's usually in my back pocket and I have to bring it out, then touch the door handles, then open my door. (Especially embarrassing when showing off my new car. Anyway, any suggestions ? please let me know
Ahhhhh! CONGRATULATIONS, Gary!!!!!!! Welcome to the TESLA family! So jealous of your model S!!!! Also, thank you so so much for the support! Okay, yes I feel your pain. I don’t know why but when I walk up to my car with my phone in my back pocket it does the same thing! I have to give myself the reach around and push on a volume button or something sometimes to kind of wake the phone up.. then wait about 1 full second after turning my butt toward the door and it will open. I’m not 💯 why this happens but here are some tips. #1 NEVER close the TESLA app in your phone. You know how you have tons of tabs open and periodically you close them all to save battery.. never close the Tesla one. If you do, open it immediately. #2 when showing off the car to people first wake up your phone right before walking over to the car because your phone may be asleep. #3 when walking up to your car showing the no phone no key trick, do a slow spin like me close to the car where your butt is facing the car for a few seconds.. it’s weird how we can control the car from other states but the Bluetooth signal doesn’t want to go through our butts to get to the car 🤷♀️ #4 take your phone out of your pocket and hold it while walking up to the car with the people don’t have the app up on the screen but show them the phone is on but just on the Home Screen and be like I’m not control the car it’s just detecting my phone.. this is trick that you aren’t manually unlocking it BUT it allows the signal to unlock the car easier because your phone is out and on and awake and sending that Bluetooth signal no problem. Hope this helps!!! I’ve made a fool of myself many times! 😂 keep me posted if this works for you! Sorry for any typos!
With the butt thing, it unlocks my car fine when it’s in my purse on my shoulder, but every time it’s in my back pocket and I approach the car (never turning my back toward the car) it never works. You can also try it in your front pocket and see if that helps too because it helps me.
Only amazing if it works for you! Haha 😂 keep me posted! Comment back in this video or any future video and let me know. Hopefully you won’t be made a fool of anymore;) I should do a video on this issue.. and really experiment with it. I don’t understand why this happens. Did I mention approaching the car slowly helps too? I know we’re all running to them excitedly but walk casually cool and take your time 😂 Good luck 🍀
Hey love your videos. I placed my order about 8 weeks ago. I cannot wait. Your video was so informative. Do you have transcripts, it sometimes makes it easier to follow. Thanks again for all your videos
No, I’m sorry I don’t have transcripts. That’s a good idea though. Also, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 🍾🎉🎊🎈 I’m so excited for you!!! And thank you so much!!! I appreciate your support!
Really great presentation. Clean and concise. However, Miz smarty pants, how do I access the music on my USB - Same USB as the dash cam. I could play the music on the USB, until that last update. Now I can't even find my music (songs and albums)?
Haha! Well thank you. And that’s actually really really funny that you sarcastically called me a smarty pants because I actually don’t know the answer to your question. 😂 But, one of my sweet followers made a video explaining this. It may or may not be able to help. But watch it and see if it can and let me know if it helps or not. I have never put music on a usb for my car. But I know a lot of people have to. If this video doesn’t help, I’ll see if I can figure it out and make a video for you if I can find a solution. Sorry! You caught me! I don’t know everything.. yet. Will send link in another comment below.
@@SaraJAwesome Sorry about 'Smarty pants', but I guess word meanings; the vernacular has changed to much over the years for this 81 YO man to keep up. I use smarty pants, I the same way I first used it. It was grade school, I think. 'Smarty pants' was the girl in class that always raised her hand first and always had the correct answer. Her response was usually completed with a shoulder squiggle and a slightly subdued smirk. She was smarty pants! My use in your case was purely for endearment, yet with with a slight smirk. Oh, and thanks for your response and the link!
Haha! No, that’s exactly how I took it! My generation still uses that term the same way you do:) It was hilarious! No offense taken at all! It made me laugh, and humbled me because I was like yeah, I deserve that! Because I know nothing about that usb music! I knew exactly what you meant. No need to explain yourself;) let me know if that video helps or not. ❤️
@@SaraJAwesome and its Australia Day! So Happy Australia Day Sara! I have a Model 3 long range and we get less bits and bobs over here like the external speaker so its nice to see these things working.
Sara in this video for some reason your mike kept changing in levels I'm not sure if your aware, very useful video I appreciate how much work went into making it thanks for all the info you bring for Us!
Yeah, sorry. It’s because I had to reshoot so much stuff and had my mic at first and then didn’t have my mic. Sorry about that! I had other complaints as well. I also was told it was way too quiet, do you think so too? I need to know because on my MacBook it sounds fine but on others devices it seems like my video was way quieter than other peoples videos and no one could turn the volume up enough. Ugh. Thankfully y’all give me good feedback!
@@SaraJAwesome quick tip I found was to play back your sound in headphonesvthen you will be able to hear if levels sounds right so many listen through headphones the speaker dosen't give a good reflection of levels
Yeah, I edit with my earbuds in. I think the pro is it’s fine for me, but when people are listening and commercials come on, the commercials are way lifer at the same level of volume. I’ve been working on it. Sometimes I forget to turn my audio up higher than what it actually records at. But thank you!
Another informative and entertaining video! I assumed the car would automatically reboot after installing an update like our phones do but I guess it doesn’t? I always enjoy your “corrective” captions…and nice slippers!😜
And it does power off after 15 minutes of being in park too. I’m not sure of the exact difference between it turning itself off on its own, and us power cycling it.
Thank you for all this great info. I have a question. You pictured the supercharger map app. I am brand new to owning a Tesla. I am not seeing on my navigation the supercharger stations. Am I not doing something to add that to my trip plan or do I need the app I saw on your video? What do you advise?
Sure. So on your Tesla screen if you pay the $10 a month for premium connectivity there are some little symbols/icons in a grey box to click on the actual map. If you click on the little lightning bolt symbol on the map it will show all the superchargers all over the world. But if you don’t pay for premium connectivity you may need to type in the word superchargers into the map navigation bar. Then that will show the superchargers and you can zoom out to see them all on the map. Now on your phone, there are a few third party apps I recommend for seeing super chargers as well as other charges you can possibly use with an adapter. They the ABRP A Better Route Planner, PlugShare, and the Volta App. I haven’t actually had to use them, but they are all fantastic if you need to see where chargers are on your phone. You can also just go to google or Apple Maps and type in Tesla superchargers. Let me know if you have any questions and if this helps;)
I sent this to my wife who has a M3 and hates the changes from the update. Your video helped us both. Another great thing about Tesla is how we all try to help one another. Thx
Oh good!!!!! That makes me so happy! I’m here for the ladies, to break it down in ways we can understand 😂 yes, I agree 💯 even in all my videos people will teach me things in the comments or teach each other. I absolutely love everything about the TESLA community. If only the rest of the world helped each other as much as we do:)
Don’t say m3 unless it’s a bimmer
Huh? What’s a bimmer?
Sara: You have risen to be my "Tesla teacher". I haven't found anyone else who's unleashed so many pointers on our latest update. Since Tesla doesn't have a dept of Education (yet), you

Thank you for all your hard work! This will be helpful for a lot of Tesla owners.
Thank you!!!!!
Say "open service control" to get instant access to tire pressures. It works everytime for me.
Also open service anything else works too
✅✅✅✅✅Oh nice!!!!!! I’m gonna try this!!!!
@@44kas88 Good to know when driving. I used to say "tire pressure" to show.
Thanks for the video. I appreciate the time and effort to research all of the options. I learned a lot about the calls, contacts and text messages. It's great that so many people are looking to you for help. Keep up the good work.
Thank you for telling me what you learned, Jeffrey!!! Yes, I’m so happy I’m actually helping people! And you’ve been here since the very beginning! 💚 Thanks for your support!
I really needed this. I am 85 and have a Tesla because I like all the driving assistance I can get to keep myself and others safe. Thank you.

One of the best Tesla model 3 UA-camrs I’ve watched, really clear and nice voice.
🤩 wow! You made my whole week with this comment! Thank you so so much, T Dog!!!!!!!! I hope YOU have a great week since you made mine!
I just started reading the comments and I have to tell you I love your fuzzy slippers! :-)
Hahaha thank you! They are seriously the cutest most comfortable slippers I’ve ever had! If you have a girlfriend or wife.. get them! Target $10.00. Several colors! True to size but you can maybe go one size down.
Very informative! Thanks for doing all the digging (pages and pages and pages)! PS: Love your fluffy bunny feet, LOL!
Thank you, James!!!!! For BOTH compliments! Lol Target $10.00 best slippers I’ve ever owned! 😂
These were great in-depth tips. I haven't seen anyone do them so concise. I'm an IT guy and when we're trying to instruct employees I do this. I go through the process myself and document the steps. In my case I take screenshots along the way as if I'm putting together a user manual. Video instructions like yours will be a big help as a potential new Tesla owner. I'll certainly refer back to them in June when I take delivery. Thanks...!!
Thank you so so much! I figured out over 90% of this stuff on my own by trial and error. I don’t watch other peoples videos hardly ever. And the user manual wasn’t updated yet. So I really appreciate you noticing. And that is EXACTLY how I do it too! Pictures step by step and notes! Then video! I do it at work to for surgery. This is an actual self made user manual. And it was a lot of work and a lot of mistakes to figure it out! 💚
Sweet, thanks for the update! I love getting the chance to see the menus to get a preview of what I will see on my delivery day (getting closer, maybe March!). I keep having to fix things on my 2009 Murano, (replaced the A/C compressor, a 12 v battery, now an alternator) and I keep thinking “Gaaa, I could have bought neat accessories for my new Model Y instead!” At least my Subaru still works, so I’m keeping that one forever. I’m hoping the Model Y will go 10 years without any major repairs. Thanks for showing the details and minor upkeep issues, it’s really helpful. When delivery day gets down to “weeks away”, I’m going to get that giddy feeling I used to get as a kid waiting for Chrismas! Actually, this IS my Christmas present, but it’s a few months late. Thanks, Sara, for all your videos!
Oh wow, first off. I here you. Right after I ordered my Tesla my other car broke down. I know all about that!! Second, ahhhhhhh! I’m so freaking excited for you!!!!! Merry Christmas 🎄🎁 and keep me posted! You have supported me for a long time! I appreciate you so much!!!
I can’t wait to join the Tesla experience. I love to add things to my vehicles, and am unafraid to pop panels, add accessories and cool looking things. I love your videos and really enjoy your enthusiasm. Keep up the great work!
Yeah, their clips are great actually too! Everything pops straight out! I’m excited for you!
Great video Sara! Very informative.
Love your slippers! 😁
Thank you!!!!!! Also, Got em at Target $10.00! They are so comfy! 😜
Good stuff. I just bought a used Tesla Model 3 and keep learning new things from you!
Nice!!!! Let me know if you have any questions! I’ll try my best;) where did you purchase yours from? Are you happy with it, and did you get a good deal? People have asked me if it’s worth it getting a used one and I say yes if you can makes sure the battery is in good condition. I’ve always had used cars myself.
New MYLR owner and this was extremely helpful! Thanks!
Good!!!
Really useful video, Sara. Thank you for taking the time to put together.
Thank you, Mark!
Hello Sara,
Liked your video. First time watcher. My experience is that I am not getting Sara fully. There is a truly awesome Sara being held back.
Awwwww Thank you!!! Yeah, I released my true self in a few videos like new Tesla bug discovered and I bought a Tesla cybertruck by hot wheels, and my Halloween video.. but aside from those I’m usually trying to focus on the content that I need to teach. One day maybe I can fully have fun while still shutting up and getting to the dang point! 😂 I appreciate you!
This the most useful Tesla video I have seen in years of viewing. I can’t believe UA-cam has just now suggested your videos. I hope subscribing and liking will let others find you.
Rick, you have NO IDEA how much I truly appreciate this comment! I just started this channel a year ago so I’m still super new. It’s actually very hard to get UA-cam to suggest your videos even if you sort of know what you need to do to help the algorithm. That UA-cam algorithm is harsh 😂 and very very picky. But no hard feelings, it’s only a software. But yes, subscribing and liking definitely helps, so thank you so very much for your support. Have a wonderful week and welcome to the channel!!!
You're awesome Sara. Thanks for your doing your homework and educating us. I'm awaiting delivery of my Model 3 in the next few weeks so this is really helpful.
Ahhhhhh! Congratulations!!!!! Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!! Good, save it to your watch later;) Happy to help! Make sure you watch my video tomorrow about rebooting your car. Will need that one too! Thanks for your support!
Just seeing all those notes makes me appreciate you even more. Thanks Sara!
Thank you, I really appreciate that. It took me a long time to figure everything out and put it together. The hardest thing was the tire pressure. I actually figured everything out myself aside from the two voice commands the Johns told me about. No cheating 😂 even the user manual wasn’t updated yet. But I’m really glad that so many people are learning stuff from this video. I wasn’t sure if everyone had figured this stuff out yet or not it took me so long to get the video done and edited. Have a great weekend!
@@SaraJAwesome think you’re making everyone lazy and we’re waiting for you to do all the hard work! 😳 can’t wait to learn more so you better get on it! 😂
Hahahaha 😂 and here I thought I was the lazy one! 😆 Thanks for making me feel better!
This update meant relearning the entire system and I just simply gave up. Happy to stumble upon your video! Thanks for doing all the hard work so I can enjoy the technology of my 3.
Oh my gosh, I’m so happy I was able to help you get used to it!!!! I mean I love 90% of the update. But this was a hard video to make for sure. Trying to figure everything out on my own. The only things I learned from someone else were the two voice commands from the two different Johns. The rest took me about 2 weeks to figure it all out. So I understand. Then the tire pressure I didn’t get it figured out 100 until the night was editing and realized I did it wrong the first 3 times. Sigh. It was a huge update and the user manual was not updated with it. But we made it, Patti! And overall, I am in love and I hope you can enjoy it a lot more now. I didn’t even cover half the stuff! Just the things that people specifically asked me about that they couldn’t figure out. Insane! Thanks for your support! Have a great week!
Sara you are the new "Tesla for Dummies" video book for me! Thank you for your time and effort in putting this video tutorial together. I've had my Y since November 2021 and still learn stuff about it. Looking forward to your future videos.
Haha! You know, after I made this channel I wished that I did name it TESLA for Dummies! I loved those books back in the day. Still have one! But then I was like well some people might get turned off by that title or maybe copyright might be a problem.. but basically that’s my idea for the channel. Make TESLA so easy that no one is intimidated by these beautiful machines anymore! Congratulations on your baby, and thanks for your support!
Great review. I have found my best way to change fan speed with VC is using the words "set" and "at". For example "set fan speed at seven". With different vernacular, I'd get all sorts of speeds.
👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅ Nice one! I’ll try that. I think I have adjusted the fan speed before with something similar but I usually just use my hand. I need to start using VC more for multiple reasons. Thanks for the tip! Hopefully others will read it!
Excellent job, thank you for taking time to explain all this good information
Thank you, Greg!!!!!! I greatly appreciate that!!!
Great work with the voice commands! Oh, and nice slippers...
Thank you, Kevin!!!
Hey Sarah! Thank you so much for this video, I learned a lot from watching it and I watched it from start to finish! The one thing I picked up on that you missed was that in order to get your Blindspot camera to work when you signal during driving you have to go into the menu screen & enable it, before it will work! Cheers!
Thank you Theodore!!! Ah yes, sorry I didn’t put that in there. I hadn’t had any questions about that so I didn’t include it. I figured everyone was able to find it. Now I’m kicking myself 😂 I appreciate you so much, have a great weekend!!!
Hi Sara, just found your channel here in Ireland 🇮🇪. Due to get my first Tesla M3 RWD in 2-3 weeks. Loving the channel and loved your diary of notes📝 . Must go watch some more. 🚙
Ireland!!!! ❤️ Congratulations Colin!!! Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!! Let me know if you have any questions, I’ll do my best;)
Great video Sara! I watched the entire video lots of great information. I am currently still waiting to be a Tesla owner it has been 11 weeks since I placed my order. I live in Canada (Toronto) and your videos have been amazing. Thanks again!
Well, thank you!!!!!!!! Ahhhhh! Congratulations! Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!! 💚💚💚
Really awesome and detailed video! You worked so hard and we appreciate it! Great work, will have to keep this pinned for when my Model 3 arrives in a few weeks!
Thank you so much! Yes, I really did. It was definitely a hard one for me. And the editing took several hours. Plus reshooting. Ugh, but so worth it thanks to comments like yours! I’m excited for you!!!
Besides just seeing your pretty face you were extremely informative and the video of the actual steps involved for each item made it much easier to learn the program changes. I am going to pass your YT site to my other Tesla friends, they could use your help. Thanks
You have no idea how much I appreciate this comment! I’m so happy I was able to help you! Yes, I would greatly appreciate you sharing my channel. That would be AMAZING, Thank you!!!!!
Just received my MY this past Wednesday. I sooooooo so appreciate your videos.
Ahhhhh! Congratulations! Welcome to the family!!!!!!!!!
And thank you!
I can't believe I watched from start to finish. Thank you for making this video. I ordered my 2022 Model 3 Performance last Monday and it said I had 3 months to wait and then this morning it says June 6th to July 4th. I was told it's because I bought the Red exterior with the White interior plus the Performance model that my production was going to move fast versus the other models that people have to wait for until 2023. I would have just bought the original car I really wanted and that was a new BMW M3 Competition but this thing is $35,000 cheaper, a hair faster and I don't have to spend $7.00 + per gallon here in Southern California. Anyway, you made the video so smooth for me anyway and I like your tone, your pitch/delivery of what could be done and your experiences. Though I am a few weeks away from getting my new ride, I have drowned myself in Tesla videos and out of the 10 or so videos I have watched, you by far are the best. You obviously exemplify professionalism in every sense of the word. ~DC
I’m too short on time to answer with a long reply, but I appreciate these words so so much. Congratulations and welcome to the family! Let me know if you have any questions at all and I will try my best to answer them.
Wow.. Well done girl !! Thanks so much. ('Liked' and 'Subscribed from Canada)
Thank you, Bill!!!!!!!!! I appreciate that so much!
Thank you! It helps having someone explain navigating the controls. I will have my wife watch this too.
Yes!!! Have her watch it! Tell me if it helps her too! Happy to help and thanks for your support!!!!!!!!
This was very helpful Sara. Thank you!
Thank YOU, Ron!!!!
Your videos will be very handy when we pick up our M3 in a couple of weeks! Thank you!
Ahhh! I’m excited for y’all!!!!!!! Welcome to the TESLA family! Yeah, let me know if y’all have questions!!
Thanks, I like the trip idea about doing the year.
Yep!
Awesome SaraJAwesome! Good to see you again since your AC coil cleaning video! Still smells nice in my Tesla again. Hope all is well with you. Thanks and happy new year to you!!
Yes! I still have not had any odor since I cleaned my coils and changed the filters! I’m so happy! My method and choice of equipment was a success! I also started turning the heater on from my phone at night for 10-15 min when I’m done driving all day. Only after days of heavy A/C use in the summer. Works like a charm to dry the housing and keep bacteria gone. Glad yours smells nice too!
Oh and Happy New Year!!
Thank you for this video Sara! Learned a bunch of new voice commands! Héhé 🤗
Have a good weekend! ☀️
Oh good!!!!!!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!
You too!
Thank you Sara! You truly are awesome! You are so personable and I learn so much from your videos! I am waiting to order my Model 3 long range until congress gets it’s act together and passes the tax credits. Fingers crossed. I will continue watching after I take delivery. Keep up the good work 😊
Joseph, thank you so much!!!! Well, the longer you wait the better the car will be;) Have a great week! I appreciate your support!
We’ve been confused after the update. Your explanation was excellent
Yay!!!!!! Thank you, Rick!!!!! Have a great weekend! Comments like these make the work worth it!
You are awesome. Thanks for your great attention to detail & spelling it out so well (good direction is a real art) 😁
Thank you so much!!!!!!!!! You know the struggle is REAL! ❤️
Great job Sara, it’s a allot of work to research all of those commands!
Thank you!!!!!! You’re awesome! I’m so happy to have you on the channel!!!!!!! Big fan!
New subscribed…great great video…thank you! I have a Model Y ordered so this kind of info is great for me. Keep these types of videos coming…thanks again
Ahhh! Congratulations, Kenny!!!! I’m so excited for you!!! Also, thank you! Let me know if you have any questions, ever!
Sarah, thanks for your awesome videos. I had a 2016 Model X that I sold in 2020. I just purchased a new 2022 Model X and couldn’t wait to get on the 101 and start using the cruise control and lane change feature but the lane change didn’t work. I thought something just needed a reset and, unless you have another idea, I’m bummed that it’s now a feature in the full self driving option that I have to purchase for $12,000 ‼️
Ohhhhhh what?! So it used to be included?!?!?! Like it was included for free with basic autopilot/autosteer? Maybe I’m confused.
Hey Sara! Thank you for the info! I’m waiting for my MY in a few more months, but its good to start getting acquainted with the new updates. I’m now a new sub. Cheers and keep up the great material!
Ahhhhh! So excited for you!!! Yes, definitely better to start learning some stuff now. Thank you so much for the support! Have a great weekend!!!!
Another awesome update. I'm going to make sure that my wife sits and watches this one so she can better understand all of the new features in the Holiday update.
Yes!!!!!! Hopefully it will explain things easier! The female brain.. that’s what I bring to the TESLA table! 😂 let me know if y’all have any questions! Thank you both!!!!!
Really good video, and you answer all of our comments. Rebooting was very helpful. Keep safe! Your amazing!
Thank you, Simon!!! I really appreciate you! Have a great week!!!!!
Thank you Sarah! You are really awesome!!👌👍😘
🙏❤️
Thank you for your excellent work. As an owner since 2019 I still didnt know some of these commands.
Nice!!! Yeah, I need to do another video showing a whole bunch of other ones I learned over times just trying stuff.
Thx for sharing Sara, You really did a great job with your notes & making it into an informative video. I learned something new today “save that” 😂
Thank you, Gusto!!!!!!!!
Sara as usual amazing and informative video. Thanks for taking the time and taking notes lol. Have an awesome week and weekend 👍
Thank you, Mishal!!!!! You too!!!!!!
As always, entertaining and informative - thank you
Thank you, Shaun!!!!
Helpful video, thanks! I completely missed the sentry mode icon at first lol
Thank you!!!! Yeah, it was super weird how similar the icons were at first to me. But the red dot made a lightbulb 💡 turn on in my brain. Like ohhhh okay. Makes sense.
Nice Video, Awesome tips, Clever way to hide your location by the map of Mars, that is another great tip!!
Thanks! Yeah… I had to take 5 videos down because they accidentally shows my street:(… I need to fix them and re-upload but it’s so much work. And it was only for like 1 sec but it was still in them. Gosh darn it. Definitely my tip to everyone! Use Mars! 😂
Fantastic & informative as always. Love your work.
Thank you, Ricky! I really appreciate that!!!!!
Nice tutorial. I was unaware of "save that". I have a tip for you. I had to reset my cellphone (reset cell provider, wifi and Bluetooth). While the phone continued to worked as a key to get into the car, Bluetooth was no longer connected for phone calls, messages, contacts etc. I had to go into the Bluetooth settings and "forget" my phone (even doing this, the phone continues to work as a key). I then added it back as a new Bluetooth device. That worked. Kind of an obscure tip, but one that will drive one crazy if you have this problem.
👆👆👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅✅ Everyone read! Ohhhhh, I’m glad you brought this up! I actually have had to mess with that before. But not for this same issue. That’s a very good tip!!!! I’m glad you got it fixed, because yeah that can drive one mad for sure! Thank you, Russ! Always happy to here what you have to say! Have a great week!!!!
Excellent video! Ordered my model 3, expected delivery in June. Thank you. Subscribed.
Ahhhhhhh! Congratulations to you! 🎉🥳🎊🎈🍾🤩Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!!!! Let me know if you have any questions at all, and I’ll try my best! Thank you for your support, and have a wonderful week!
@@SaraJAwesome Watching another of your amazing video now "TESLA Actually Changed My Life ...", you have sooooo many.
It really did! I wasn’t lying! And it was unexpected. I wasn’t a TESLA fan until I took delivery. Thanks for checking out my other videos! One of my favorites is a mechanics daughters story. It shows who I really am 😂
By the way good content I just stumbled into this vid so I subscribe 👍😅 keep it up
Thank you so much, Kevin!!!! I really appreciate that! And please feel free to add any of your own insights ANY time! Welcome to the channel;)
Thank you Sara! These are extremely helpful tips which isn’t surprising since all your videos are well thought out and beautifully presented. I love how passionate you are about your Tesla. I am too! I really love it and I am a huge car nut. Owned 24 cars in my lifetime which is a little insane. But from my earliest days I have been drawn to cars. Have you always had such passion for cars or is it the Tesla in particular that captures your attention?
Thank you, Jon!!!!!!! I have always had the passion! Haha! I have a video I think that you’ll love;) ua-cam.com/video/1awY-Ip0Z3w/v-deo.html
I’m really happy to learn about the set temperature voice command. I find the climate control to be a lot more tricky since the latest software update and I didn’t think to use the voice command. Good one!!!
Thank you!!! You should be able to control the fan too. By saying “set fan to level 10” maybe? I can’t remember. And I haven’t tried it since the update yet. Or say “fan level 10” it might work.
@@SaraJAwesome don't forget you can always use the voice command "blow me" to increase fan speed by 1. Best used when Windows are up and no one is nearby...saves the shocked looks 🤣
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 Thank you, I’ll try that one tomorrow hahahaha alone with the windows up!
Yup! That’s the video I’m making today!!!
4:49 is that a MKV Supra I see 👀
Voice Command: Set Fan Speed to # (1-10)
I use this a lot in my car.
Good video and explanations!
👆👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅✅ Y’all read this! Thank you! That’s a good one! Hopefully other will read this! Thanks, Robert! I really appreciate that! Have a great week;)
Great video, Sara! I definitely picked up a few things I hadn't looked into yet.
Note.. if you have FSD City Streets Beta (10.8 in my case).. when you tap the camera on the screen while driving, it saves an autopilot clip.. which is NOT the same. I love the "save that" tip. thank you!
Interesting! Thanks! I didn’t know that.
Super clear, helpful guide. Thank-you Sara.
Thank you, James! I greatly appreciate that!
Great video. Makes a lot of things clear.
Thank you!!!!!! Have a great week!
thank for the first 17 seconds. it was very informative and didn't waste anyone's time.
🤔 Do I detect sarcasm? 😂 Sorry, I love to talk to my people.
I have one on order, will be a few months before i get it though. Whilst this gave me some insight, and I was concentrating, I couldnt help but notice how much you show that massive diamond ring in the way of the tablet. I say this because you use your left hand to point to the screen not your right which surely must be less comfortable? Glad you like it, lol. Really though, im being serious after my joking around about your ring, its a good video.
Thank you for all the tips. As a video production guy I would suggest turning off your auto-focus to stop the focus from changing from the screen to your hand and back again. :)
Thank you, Scott!!! And yes, that’s very good advice on the auto-focus. Unfortunately, I use my iPhone to film… and it doesn’t have the option to turn autofocus off. Ugh. I’ve tried real video cameras, but to be honest I returned them because it’s just so easy and a lot less time consuming to record with my phone and airdrop the videos to my MacBook. Perhaps one day if I ever get big enough to have a camera crew I will get a real camera 🎥 😂 But seriously, thank you. Any and all advice and constructive criticism is ALWAYS welcome here. Have a great week!
Great job and VERY helpful! You are a natural on-air! Sara, you are AWESOME!
No, YOU are awesome Neil! Thank you!!!!
Really great video! One of the best how to videos I have seen. Thank you. Subscribed and Following.
🤩 I’m so happy it’s helping people, and thank you so much for your support! Have a great week!!!!!
Sara great video, FYI you can save you dash cam video's by blowing the horn if you set it up to do that.
Thank you! And yes, I am set up for that. Good tip!!!!!
This was so helpful, thank you!!
Oh good!!!!! That makes me happy!
Awesome, was wondering where the clip saving function went.
Lots of people have given serveral
Additional VC suggestions and other ways to save as well in the comments. If you look for these 👆✅ in my replies and read the comments above that I am replying to there is tons of good information! Eventually I’ll do another video including more ways to save and other voice commands;) Thanks for watching!
Very useful. Thanks for taking the time to create this.
Thank YOU, for watching!
Awesome video and so very helpful. So many great tips. The reboot portion was a life saver. Thank you so much.
Thank YOU so much, Fred!!!! Happy to help!
@@SaraJAwesome Please keep posting! Your videos are beyond helpful :)
You have no idea how much I needed this motivation today. Filming the latest video in an hour or so, though it’s hard to make myself today. And last week I just couldn’t get one out. Thank you so much! Have a wonderful day, Fred!
@@SaraJAwesome Aaaaw sending you hugs my friend. They are filled with a wealth of useful information. I visit your page first if I have any issues. They have always helped. Not to mention you're absolutely beautiful. :) sorry i had to add that lol
Well, thank you. Thank you so so much! For all of the above. My personal favorite Tesla UA-camr is Frugal Tesla Guy. In case I don’t have what you need.
Ty hon for the vid! Will be getting my MYP on Feb 7!
Congratulations! Welcome to the TESLA family!!!!!
@@SaraJAwesome si!!
Thanks for good hints about v11 features. BUT, could you please make your volume twice as loud? I set volume to max on my end and could barely hear many of your statements. I watch lots of Tesla videos by others on youtube and it is rare i find a video with such low volume.
Hmmm, yes Ill try to make that adjustment. So sorry about that! I hav gotten this complaint before about it being too loud so I need to start watching them on something besides my MacBook before I upload I guess. Thanks for the tip!!!! Always appreciated! Sorry!
@@SaraJAwesome Thanks very much for your reply. IF someone thinks it is too loud they can easily turn down volume. IF someone thinks it is too low, they are stuck if they already maxed out on volume. I would say that I am a regular viewer of your videos and usually the volume is just fine. AND, i appreciate all your insights! Keep up the good work!
Very good point!!!! Thanks Wilber!
My favorite for the seat warmers is, "Two strips of bacon on the driver's seat please!" and yes, this works!!!
✅✅✅✅✅👆👆👆👆👆What?! That’s freaking awesome!!! I’m gonna try it!!!
Thank u!
@@SaraJAwesome so amazing, right???
Yes!!!! I love 🥓.. just ate some actually 😂
Brilliant!
Thank you!!
hey Sara, 1st time found u this week after my new 2021 TESLA S "Refresh" just got here and wanted to say how much I LUV your video's. They are not only well spoken, well-done they are also SUPER INFORMATIVE !
One quick question? I mainly use my PHONE as a key but when I walk up to my car it "mostly' does not present door handles even though I have that setting turned on ? I did try your excellent Re-Boot suggestions but still, when I walk up my phone's usually in my back pocket and I have to bring it out, then touch the door handles, then open my door. (Especially embarrassing when showing off my new car. Anyway, any suggestions ? please let me know
Ahhhhh! CONGRATULATIONS, Gary!!!!!!! Welcome to the TESLA family! So jealous of your model S!!!! Also, thank you so so much for the support! Okay, yes I feel your pain. I don’t know why but when I walk up to my car with my phone in my back pocket it does the same thing! I have to give myself the reach around and push on a volume button or something sometimes to kind of wake the phone up.. then wait about 1 full second after turning my butt toward the door and it will open. I’m not 💯 why this happens but here are some tips. #1 NEVER close the TESLA app in your phone. You know how you have tons of tabs open and periodically you close them all to save battery.. never close the Tesla one. If you do, open it immediately. #2 when showing off the car to people first wake up your phone right before walking over to the car because your phone may be asleep. #3 when walking up to your car showing the no phone no key trick, do a slow spin like me close to the car where your butt is facing the car for a few seconds.. it’s weird how we can control the car from other states but the Bluetooth signal doesn’t want to go through our butts to get to the car 🤷♀️ #4 take your phone out of your pocket and hold it while walking up to the car with the people don’t have the app up on the screen but show them the phone is on but just on the Home Screen and be like I’m not control the car it’s just detecting my phone.. this is trick that you aren’t manually unlocking it BUT it allows the signal to unlock the car easier because your phone is out and on and awake and sending that Bluetooth signal no problem. Hope this helps!!! I’ve made a fool of myself many times! 😂 keep me posted if this works for you! Sorry for any typos!
With the butt thing, it unlocks my car fine when it’s in my purse on my shoulder, but every time it’s in my back pocket and I approach the car (never turning my back toward the car) it never works. You can also try it in your front pocket and see if that helps too because it helps me.
Wonder why that is ? wierd right ?
Thank you so much !!! you are such a sweetheart. Thank you , Gary
@@SaraJAwesome amazing answer !
Only amazing if it works for you! Haha 😂 keep me posted! Comment back in this video or any future video and let me know. Hopefully you won’t be made a fool of anymore;) I should do a video on this issue.. and really experiment with it. I don’t understand why this happens. Did I mention approaching the car slowly helps too? I know we’re all running to them excitedly but walk casually cool and take your time 😂 Good luck 🍀
Hey love your videos. I placed my order about 8 weeks ago. I cannot wait. Your video was so informative. Do you have transcripts, it sometimes makes it easier to follow. Thanks again for all your videos
No, I’m sorry I don’t have transcripts. That’s a good idea though. Also, CONGRATULATIONS!!!!! 🍾🎉🎊🎈 I’m so excited for you!!! And thank you so much!!! I appreciate your support!
Great info. Really helpful. I only have 500 miles on my Y so need this!!
Oh good!!!!! I’m happy it’s helping! Thank you, Randall!
Great video! You can say, "passenger seat warmer level 2" etc
👆👆👆👆✅✅✅✅✅ Thank you, Nicholas!! I’ll try that!!!!
Great thanks to your pleasant tutorial video. Cheers
Thank you!
Very thorough -- thank you!
Thank YOU!
Really great presentation. Clean and concise. However, Miz smarty pants, how do I access the music on my USB - Same USB as the dash cam. I could play the music on the USB, until that last update. Now I can't even find my music (songs and albums)?
Haha! Well thank you. And that’s actually really really funny that you sarcastically called me a smarty pants because I actually don’t know the answer to your question. 😂 But, one of my sweet followers made a video explaining this. It may or may not be able to help. But watch it and see if it can and let me know if it helps or not. I have never put music on a usb for my car. But I know a lot of people have to. If this video doesn’t help, I’ll see if I can figure it out and make a video for you if I can find a solution. Sorry! You caught me! I don’t know everything.. yet. Will send link in another comment below.
ua-cam.com/video/LOUXRKqrTag/v-deo.html
@@SaraJAwesome Sorry about 'Smarty pants', but I guess word meanings; the vernacular has changed to much over the years for this 81 YO man to keep up. I use smarty pants, I the same way I first used it. It was grade school, I think. 'Smarty pants' was the girl in class that always raised her hand first and always had the correct answer. Her response was usually completed with a shoulder squiggle and a slightly subdued smirk. She was smarty pants! My use in your case was purely for endearment, yet with with a slight smirk. Oh, and thanks for your response and the link!
Haha! No, that’s exactly how I took it! My generation still uses that term the same way you do:) It was hilarious! No offense taken at all! It made me laugh, and humbled me because I was like yeah, I deserve that! Because I know nothing about that usb music! I knew exactly what you meant. No need to explain yourself;) let me know if that video helps or not. ❤️
The fuzzy slippers made an appearance hahaha
🤦♀️ 😂 yeah.. the perks of working from home right?! Can’t wear them in the Operating room though 😆
Great update. Thanks... I can't believe you have a kid old enough to drive!
Me either. Sigh… 😂
Thanks
@@SaraJAwesome Good on you Sara! And thanks for making these respect from Australia!
Thanks;) Australia 🇦🇺!!!!💚💚💚💚
@@SaraJAwesome and its Australia Day! So Happy Australia Day Sara! I have a Model 3 long range and we get less bits and bobs over here like the external speaker so its nice to see these things working.
Good video, research and explanation. Lots of good info to help us get the most out of the updates.
Thank you, Dan!!!!!! I appreciate that so much!
Thanks a ton for all the work you did to make this video. Very helpful. New S owner.
Ahhh! CONGRATULATIONS! 🍾🎉🎈🎊 Welcome to the TESLA family! You are so welcome! Thank YOU for your support. 🤩
Great post…. For turning on the seats by voice try “drivers seat 3 beacons”, or passenger seat …
, or 1, 2 beacons.
👆👆👆✅✅✅✅ Y’all read this! Okay, yeah I’m gonna try that! Thanks, Bert!!!!! Have a great week!
1, 2, 3 strips of bacon
Video is extremely helpful. Thank you!
Oh good!!!!! That’s what I want to hear! Thank you, have a great weekend!
Sara in this video for some reason your mike kept changing in levels I'm not sure if your aware, very useful video I appreciate how much work went into making it thanks for all the info you bring for Us!
Yeah, sorry. It’s because I had to reshoot so much stuff and had my mic at first and then didn’t have my mic. Sorry about that! I had other complaints as well. I also was told it was way too quiet, do you think so too? I need to know because on my MacBook it sounds fine but on others devices it seems like my video was way quieter than other peoples videos and no one could turn the volume up enough. Ugh. Thankfully y’all give me good feedback!
@@SaraJAwesome quick tip I found was to play back your sound in headphonesvthen you will be able to hear if levels sounds right so many listen through headphones the speaker dosen't give a good reflection of levels
Yeah, I edit with my earbuds in. I think the pro is it’s fine for me, but when people are listening and commercials come on, the commercials are way lifer at the same level of volume. I’ve been working on it. Sometimes I forget to turn my audio up higher than what it actually records at. But thank you!
Another informative and entertaining video! I assumed the car would automatically reboot after installing an update like our phones do but I guess it doesn’t? I always enjoy your “corrective” captions…and nice slippers!😜
Thanks Mike!! Nope, it does not. And thanks!!! Target! $10! Best slippers ever!
Well it does reboot some computers after an install but not all.
And it does power off after 15 minutes of being in park too. I’m not sure of the exact difference between it turning itself off on its own, and us power cycling it.
Thank you for all this great info. I have a question. You pictured the supercharger map app. I am brand new to owning a Tesla. I am not seeing on my navigation the supercharger stations. Am I not doing something to add that to my trip plan or do I need the app I saw on your video? What do you advise?
Sure. So on your Tesla screen if you pay the $10 a month for premium connectivity there are some little symbols/icons in a grey box to click on the actual map. If you click on the little lightning bolt symbol on the map it will show all the superchargers all over the world. But if you don’t pay for premium connectivity you may need to type in the word superchargers into the map navigation bar. Then that will show the superchargers and you can zoom out to see them all on the map. Now on your phone, there are a few third party apps I recommend for seeing super chargers as well as other charges you can possibly use with an adapter. They the ABRP A Better Route Planner, PlugShare, and the Volta App. I haven’t actually had to use them, but they are all fantastic if you need to see where chargers are on your phone. You can also just go to google or Apple Maps and type in Tesla superchargers. Let me know if you have any questions and if this helps;)
For DASCAM settings it is set to default to save clip if u HONK HORN. You can also set custom command to save your clip.
Yes, and what do you mean by set custom command?
@@SaraJAwesome in settings, notice "honk" is highlighted, click it and you can change it.
