Interesting. I look forward to seeing the suspension mods.
The absolute dumbest trend in vehicle manufacturing is the move towards ultra low profile tires and giant rims(obviously not limited to Tesla). It's completely ludicrous on a technical level. I wonder how many millions of $$ a year is wasted on replacing destroyed rims and tires.
It's expected for a high performance car.
@@RemoteSpeed007 It's very stupid on a high performance car- the ONLY reason to go with ultra low profile tires/wheels is to fit bigger brakes. They degrade every other metric of performance
@@bobqzzi The pros of low-profile tires include performance improvements that are reflected in better handling and higher intensity of braking. Not sure where u getting your info from? Check your level of stupidity before claiming that of others.
Some great advantages of using low profile tyres include:
● Improved braking since they have larger rims and wider tyres.
● Better handling in both wet and dry weather. They provide good gripping and side swaying is also less noticeable.
● Offer greater traction than a conventional type of tyre.
● Enhances road feel, which means you can actually feel the road much more than in a car with normal tyres.
● They also benefit your car’s cornering characteristics by being able to handle greater cornering forces and steering performance.
● They are generally great looking and add style to your car’s outfit.
● Current premium car’s tyres are blessed with Run Flat technologies i.e., they allow driving even when all the air pressure is lost.
@@bobqzzi what? No. They do not degrade performance when performance is what you want. A lower profile tire handles drastically different than a tire with a larger sidewall. There are practical use applications for these tires. Of course there are downsides. But handling is the primary reason and it matters ALOT.

You can pull the frunk liner out in under five minutes and then you should be able to see what’s going on with the fan. It might be a super easy fix. Maybe a mounting bolt fell out or something like that.
Probably a Dead Rat going around and around

Smart idea to keep it. Long term reviews and updates will provide a ton of content in the future that no other channel will be able to accurately compete with.
If you’re having issues viewing this on mobile, I am too. Occasionally UA-cam does this and hopefully will be back live for mobile viewers soon
“No stream”
Kyle, what firmware version are you running on the Model 3?
Working now
Why would you sell a “nightmare” to anyone in that condition. Shame on you! 😢😢😢🥺🥺🥺
Not having any issues it on my phone.
I'm willing to wager that the charging issue is because the PCS in the HV Battery Service Panel is breaking down -as is now happening with an increasing number of early models, including mine. What's even worse about that problem is that Tesla is refusing to cover the repair under the HV Battery Warranty. NOT good! I have filed a dispute over the issue and the AAA arbitration is currently pending.
I had to replace my PCS just before my warranty expired
@@executivetutoringservices1714 You were fortunate! Most are experiencing the breakdown not long after crossing the 50K threshold. Still, IMHO, Tesla should cover the repair under the HV Battery Warranty, as the components are definitely an integral and essential part of the battery drive train system.
Whats the PCS?
Power conversion system (PCS)
@@NeilSalaria thanks!
these alloy wheel are just great ! Thank you for you channel ! I really enjoy watching most of your videos !
Regarding the level 2 charge issues it’s in the car. Same happened too me on a similar car. Tesla fixed it for free.
when did they do the fix?
What did they fix?
For all you that have that charge for a few mins and then stop on a Level 2 charger, I had that same issue , took it in 2 Tesla x2 and the couldn't figure it out. Once I removed the extraneous Tesla-apps I had hook up to my phone and started with a clean slate, the problem went away. One of those apps was wonky and was causing the problems. I haven't bother yet to figure out which one it was. I did add back Testifi and Tessie back and they work ok.
@@allenbaylus3378 they removed and replaced the power conversion system
@@mcunha81 they removed and replaced the power conversion system
Great to see you at takeover this weekend. That’s a crazy noise and interesting that it only happens while Turning. Good luck and hope to see you again soon.
My guess would be a loose fan.
the cooling fan noise sounds like you live around airport and listening to airplane takes off
🤣
That plan for the Model 3 reminds me of the Dukes of Hazzard episode where they put a lift on the General Lee, and put big beefy tires on it! 🤣
Mpp comfort coilovers for a smoother ride! Can’t wait to hear your opinion about them.
If they are anything like their sport coil overs (which I have run on both of my Model 3) I think Kyle will love them.
Everything besides the level 2 charger issue seems straight forward. I recently had to change the manifold for the superbladder. Fan seems like a loose fastener
It was awesome to meet and talk to you at Tesla Owners Takeover. I can't wait to see the end product of the Overlander Model 3!
Broke one of the blades and threw it out of balance?
More than likely. Or blades sucked in some dirt and one has more than others.
Can’t wait to see the lift!!!
Have you guys gone over your home charging set up? Or what would be your ideal set up for a house if you could design it yourself (either with current products or future products) Do you have solar on this house? I think you mentioned that it was a rental so if that’s the case I imagine not.
Interesting charging problem,with the 3 , Kyle, I have a 21lr,and my home charger 40amp,and 32amp that comes with the 3 both stop at around 1hr..or 10%, this happens far less often in winter thought. I think its car related,because I had an S..for 2 years and it never tripped the breaker once,with the 3 it happens all the time.... however,if your breaker isnt tripping when the car stops charging then it cant be same problem as mine..
Thanks for making your Model 3 Performance your long term EV Kyle!
I'm happy you kept the Model 3 !
5:35 - Jordan... YOU DID THIS...!!!
103,000 on my Bolt EV - Zero problems.
Did install new shocks.
Free battery replacement gave me 10% more capacity than when I bought it.
Happy camper.
Charge on!
Glad they came through with the battery replacement…👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You don't treat your Bolt like he treated that Model 3. Plenty of people with Model 3 and that many miles with no issues.
@@domg7359
How would you know how he treated his Bolt EV?
I have a boring ass Prius, but it gets the shit beat out of it all the time. I use it for Rideshare, and drive it hard. It has 409,000 miles, still going strong. Still on original suspension except for the struts.. all the bushings, and ball joints, Tie Rod ends, wheel bearings all original.
I appreciate that Kyle beats his cars a bit.. shows me what I could expect too. And it has me a bit concerned....
@@kens97sto171 Because it doesn't accelerate like this 3P lol, or have as high of a top speed....
@@whattheschmidt
So what.. means nothing.. top speed is easy for any car.. no stress at all. My Prius has a higher top speed than the Bolt actually. And I've run at that top speed 108mph for extended period of time.. and run at 85-90mph for HOURS no stop.
Acceleration might put wear on some parts.. but not much. That's all in suspension design. The M3p has aa much more beefy setup in the first place..
Sorry.. it does NOT add up.
Thanks for the update. It would help to know what it costs to repair the individual items you mentioned. The onboard charger, cooling fan, roof panel, windshield....those four alone will add up to significant $$$.
Including the glass replacements probably about $10,000.
If the glass is cracked by a rock it would be covered by insurance
@@Kendallbogley3 Yes I have similar issue, storm damage on my top roof glass section and insurance will cover, but the repair is $3K CAD. Not cheap.
@@Kendallbogley3 That depends on your insurance company and policy limits.
@@Kendallbogley3 Glass is only covered in some states. In Florida it's covered, in Georgia it's not.
Would you mind sharing the invoices for these repairs? I think it would be helpful for people with the pre-refresh model 3 decide to keep or sell their car.
Do y’all realize he took this car and beat it on a track all the time in it’s early days… now it’s a road tripper. But watch old videos. Majority of ppl won’t have these issues such as the radiator issue/Suspension.
Rally Model 3! Yes! Big wing, mud flaps, rally lights. The works!
“Keep driving it until something breaks” Famous last words.
I'm having AC charging issues on my Model Y, I just dropped it off today. I sure hope they fix it but it sounds like it's the onboard charger itself and I don't think they are replacing that today. I can charge most nights but it disconnects a lot and won't accept full charge on almost anything I plug it into.
Man, we live really near each other. It's crazy to think we probably pass by in traffic occasionally. If you ever see a black house with a solar roof, that's me!
I promise not to come knocking lol
How much clearance with the new suspension?
Are you going to add control arms to the kit as well?
Gratuitously blocking the bikeway.
what kind of rims are those??? They are gorgeous!
Neighbors are like how this dude live in a tiny house and have $200k worth of cars
I had a similar charging issue that was only coming with granny lead or at charge point. I had Tesla out for an unrelated reason and they fixed it! Some plastic in the charge port had broken off and was stuck in there. The tech pulled them out with a needle nose and replaced them with new ones. Newer cars don't have this issue as they changed the plastic. Have Tesla look at. It's a simple driveway fix.
I'd like to know the price of replacing windshield and top glass.
If I ever go driving my Model 3P across the Utah salt flats at 160 mph like Kyle, I'll be sure to have my cooling system checked.
lol!! don't forget death valley in summer!
They sure did get good use out of this 3P lol!
Love the Mercedes Sprinter camper
Too much skids I should say but I have a m3 sr+ 2019 based on the same platform and I keep it. They are cheap to repare, easy to find problems e.c.t
Aloha Kyle. When you provisioned the new rims and tires ( Track Package) , did you have to do the ''performance upgrade" for 2k? My understanding is this lowers the 0-60 from 3.1 secs to 2.8 secs on the 2022 variant. I know you have the 2019.
Performance upgrade is for M3LR. It takes 4.2 to 3.8.
People get lulled into thinking that there will be no maintenance forever. Ultimately, it's still a high performance car with all the typical suspension and non-engine related wear items.
Title should be: We converted our Model 3 to a lawn mower.
Keeping it > Selling it
I'm at 80k on my ghost performance. I'm about due for my second set of tires. I had an issue with charging at 250kw chargers when they first came out that was resolved by topping off the coolant. I was getting a clackety clunk noise from the suspension at around 60k miles that was solved by having suspension torqued to spec. I have also gone through 3 windshields so far. After the third windshield I started getting a lot of rattling from the trim pieces, solved by putting some insulation in there. I had a window switch mechanically break, that was a surprisingly cheap fix (like $60). According to the Tesla Service mode my battery has 84% capacity left but interestingly, legs that were "stretches" when I first got the car, I'm still able to make. I think that has something more to do with my comfort in going lower into the battery but my trips are far quicker now than they were when the car was new, thanks to faster and more superchargers. A 680 mile trip I do pretty often I can do roundtrip with 2 hours less time off the road than when I first got the car mid 2018
shot bearing in the fan?
So is it worth buying this car because I’m looking into purchasing one
Love the various cars though :)
Could you please go into a lot more detail on the suspension bits? Which bits solve which specific problems, so I can figure out which parts I'd be interested in for my specific needs... everything I read seems to be focused on people who want to lower their cars, which makes minimal sense to me with the model 3 performance.
How did you have it listed when it was up for sale?
That’s a good looking car 👀
Any updates on this beast!?
Iam wondering how many miles you guys have driven so far in all vehicles ?
on the tm3 he's talking about - over 100,000 mi. Watch his past vids-- they/ Kyle thrashes that car.
Rally spec M3P... i like it.
How many cars do you have, dude?
He is a car guy. His job is a UA-cam channel reviewing cars! Clearly he has a passion for cars.
4?
Model S plaid, Rivian R1T, an audi something, a model 3, and his Mercedes van/camper
he has a whole company dude
@@fornobu yeah but he has a whopping 100k subscribers. No where near enough revenue to bankroll what they have. If they had millions then yeah.
Great vid thx, What would happen if you drove/drafted the P3D 1 car length behind a semi on a track @ 70mph for 100 miles I know it’s rated @ 315 miles how much do you think it would gain @ 100% charge to 0….hmm inquiring minds want 2 know, if this test proves good we can ask Elon to implement Kyle Mode (drafting behind semi’s)…peace
What are you asking as is if you do sell it?
Wish I'd known you were getting the mpp lift kit. Just pulled mine off (here in Nederland, CO) and no longer need it. If you can make use of it, let me know.
please email info@outofspecstudios.com! thank you!
It’s Trashed! Not a Fault of Tesla!
Ricky Racer got his Jollies!
How did you get the crack in the TOP?
Hi kyle
What do you do for a Living? Is it full time UA-cam etc?
He sells ice cream out of the white Rivian.
i had a problem once with charging stopped and turns out it was some 3rd party app that i was using to pull extra data on the car that was stopping the charge once i logged out my tesla account from that 3rd party app it worked perfectly
My 2019 P- has just gone over 150k miles and the biggest problem has been suspension; just had the two rear trailing arms replaced but you can't get them off without dropping the whole subframe because there's a bolt that is too long to be replaced
Similar battery deg, maybe slightly less due to less DC charging than you
Paintwork is obviously shite but that's to be expected
No other major problems other than chewing through Michelin PS4s now replaced by cross climate 2s which are a great compromise if a little prone to power-on understeer at utterly random times
Great to read your experience. Which paint color do you have? And 10% degradation... it should slow down from there mostly. I do hope u did not like baby it and decently used the "Performance". :) i heard the black paint gets destroyed alot due to rocks.
Haven’t watched many of older vids but what do you think about quality of build and long term reliability ?
LOL. Go look, he just published a full video on it at 100,000 miles
I have wanted to order a Model 3 but the nearist service center is a 200-plus mile round trip and this video did not make me have the warm fuzzies about the M3 if in three years it is going to have so many issues.
Remember the Model 3 has ALOT of upgrades since 2019.. for example. "The suspension". Also.. this dude really abuses his model 3 so its a great test on how it will hold out. If u gonna buy the 2021 and 2022 model or just buy a new one there is gonna be a huge update on the model 3 in 2023 aswell. But alot of issues have been solved from the older model 3's.
The main reason supercharging works in the model 3 but level 2 charging doesn't is the different electrical current. supercharging provides DC directly to the battery, while level 2 charger provides AC to onboard built in the car AC to DC converter (like a rectifier). And then either the onboard converter has issue or overheated from the cooling problem that you had mentioned so it only works for few minutes.
If you haven’t already done it, try the reset on the side of the HPWC. We had same issue and the reset fixed it.
Love your videos, all of them ! But just to help, I think you should try some lens cleaning. Many of your video have some white fog
2019 have control arm issues at about 3 years, Zach and Jesse, a friend of mine. Apparently mileage doesn’t seem to be the issue just age related.
loose broke shroud around cooling fan or the heat cold pump mount or noise cover loose broke.
Watching this in my Toyota Camry with 120k miles with no 9k repair cost.
You can get a oil change faster than they can sit just to get one charge...
i wouldn't alter the suspension at all due to speed bump clearance. just get tesla or 3rd party to oem fix it to stock for resale value, as for the level 2 I don't think it is your charger but the cars as others have also had level 2 issues reported, that must be a batch issue or very limited failure either way get tesla to do it
Where can I get the rims?
how did the roof Glass break
Disposable cars but Great software and charging network.
I think you should sell this and use Rivian as a road trip car.
100k miles could just be a fan with a bad bearing. Unless it's a brushless fan then idk lol.
Brushless have bearings too, and I agree that is a bearing on one end or the other of the motor, maybe even both.
The offroading they did with it Im sure didn’t help 😂
Seems like fairly straightforward problems, cool that your doing the MPP lift, that's rad
For a Tesla maybe..
@@DeniJasmina For any car, in my opinion, having worked on lots of them
I thought you sold it?
And guess what. In the snowy mountain endurance run, only one car beat the Tesla....the Chevy Bolt that was $20,000 + less)!
Really car sounds amazing would be even better with Model Y
11:00: I cannot find your personal channel. Is there a link somewhere?
I have a new set of the turbine oem rims and want to know if you would consider trading for your g zeros? I’m willing to ship first
where is the MPP upgrade video?
I've got a Model 3 Performance coming 23rd Sept. I can't wait to see how you set it up for more off road driving, as I want mine to be able to tackle Devon roads in the UK. 😞I had a Model 3 Long Range 2019, and had suspension noises on the drivers side as well. Sounded just like yours, but was fixed under warranty. Looking forward to the Model 3 Off road video. 🙂
Engineering fix: Put the fan on a gambol mount.
The suspension plans sound horrid to me, imho.
If you need help getting your windshield and sunroof replaced let me know - i work for safelite in loveland
What is his personal channel. Kyle’s car. Could not find it
Not sure if it the fan. May sounds more like bad wheel bearings.
Bad wheel bearings don’t make noise when the car isn’t moving.
Your Model 3 has had a hard life. You took full advantage of your free supercharging miles and made lots of cross country road trip content in those early days of ownership. Like others have said, the fan, or it’s shroud sounds loose. Not a difficult fix, but if you ignore it for long enough, its bound to creat more issues.
Also tracked it. So I guess after +100K miles... might need some maintenance i guess.
@@ultrastoat3298 Yup Kyle pushes his cars to their limits- impressive it went that long without these problems.
I thought glass (at least windshields) were covered on every insurance policy? Idk about the top glass.
it is but might depend on your deductible. It was cheaper for us to just pay cash.
of course you fix the fan at tesla. how is that even a question. could be just a plastic frame that's cracked from 110kmiles vibration. And sounds like you drive it terribly if you have multiple damaged wheels :) I have a brand new 3P and you cannot borrow it! :)
Will you lose the warranty on the Plaid ?
Nobody loses warranty on your car when u do these things. U only lose warranty on the things u mess with mostly. Why would u lose warranty on the whole car. That would be against the law.
Oh my… I would have immediately taken off work and came to swap you for my 19” silver wheels 😂
This guy reminds me of a real life Stewie.
Man you really have drove this car hard and put it up wet. Still looks nice
Could somebody there work on editing the Alaska trip video?
Owning a tesla out of warranty aint for the faint hearted or cash strapped
Your lawn also needs some TLC
Well, I have to agree on the suspension. To me, the stock Model 3's are really terrible. The rebound is very aggressive and makes people sitting in the rear seats get car sick. I changed out my 2020 Model 3 LR stock suspension with MPP Comfort Kit within the first year of my ownership. It made a complete 180 difference and the Model 3 rides much much better. IMO, I would still love even more dampening but I will take what I have. For a "luxury mid-sized" sedan, Tesla really cheaped out on the suspension. IMO.
For the other items, I too have a broken top roof glass (windshield is fine) and will be getting that fixed via insurance. Not cheap, a $3K fix.
Otherwise, my almost 2 year old Model 3 with close to 50,000 kms is doing well. Yes stone chips are inevitable when one drives a car, so otherwise it is holding up fine. I've got no other complaints.
Hope you can fix your charging issue for L2 and wondering if it coincided with a recent OTA update? I reviewed the new Genesis GV60 recently and it had a software glitch where it would stop (randomly) charging on L2. Hope it is easy and not like the viewer below has described as a non-warranty covered PCS issue. That would not be cool.
That's one of the things with sometimes getting first production run new vehicles, some bugs may come out. However, the OEM should stand by it.
O’ how I suffer. I just got back from Europe, I’ve got a camping van, two Tesla’s, a Rivian and an Audi in my driveway. I have to do some “minor” fix on the spoiler; I may have to drive the Audi. My poor life. O’ how I suffer.
Please sell me those track wheels once you do your overlanding project!
