UPDATE! Thank you everyone who explained the percentage to me! It makes total sense why % is the way to go. Going 5 mph over in a low speed environment like a school zone is a much bigger deal than 5 on a freeway. Awesome stuff! This is what this channel is all about!
Why I use percentage: I set my car to go 10% over the speed limit. In a 25 zone, it goes 28, which is all I'm comfortable doing in a residential area. In a 45 zone, it goes 50, which is roughly the median speed in my area. On the highway, in a 65 zone, it goes 72, which again keeps up with most of the traffic. So, at least in my area of Arizona, most cars are going about 10% over the speed limit, so it's really handy that my Tesla has the feature to do exactly that.
I agree this is the better way of doing it. Thanks
So 100 is 110?😜
Just had my 2021 SR+ Model 3 for 2 weeks now and I learned that other than applying pressure to the wheel or playing with the scroll wheel to alert the car you are there during autopilot, you can also hit the gear stock down once and it will dismiss the alert message.
Awsm one 😍 I'm so ready to get my Model 3 Performance in 2022🔥🔥🔥
Nice!
If only things were more legible rather than increasingly less legible.
The power flow bar , the rear vent icon , the battery soc, etc. why make things harder to see ???
What’s with the faint grey theme ?
Accuracy is outstanding !
Legibility is appalling !
Exactly. Not everyone has 20/20 vision.
The battery icon and the gear indicator should be a bit larger. Plenty of open space on the screen. Increase the font from an 8 to 10 or 12.
@@tomsekerchak2176 I fear a blizzard of graphics with the rewrite is about to dominate soon.
How I handle the "nag" feature: When in autopilot, I always have one hand hanging on the steering wheel, either my right hand in the 4 o'clock position, or my left hand in the 8 o'clock position. The weight of my arm is always exerting a modest downward pressure on the wheel, so I never get nagged at. The big advantage of this policy is that, if the car starts to make a boneheaded move, my hand is always on the wheel, ready to take immediate corrective action.
I agree I have always recommended the left hand 8 o'clock position. Of all the ones I have tried that one seems to work the best.
And then you hit a bumpy road and the extra jerkyness disengages autosteer.
Good overview, thanks! Data plate inside driver door frame displays recommended tire pressure. Also, if you don’t like recommended lane change suggestion you can tap the blue notification bar to cancel. Cheers!
Thanks for the info!
A reason for the percentage: static and mobile radars have a % accuracy based on the speed your going at (at least where I live), meaning if you set it to a percentage you can be sure to always be within the margin of error of radars and you won’t get a fine.
My Model 3 is in the shop so I'm living vicariously through YT videos. I need it back!
Excellent video 🙌🙌 I completely agree with you about the speed that we are traveling to and the speed limit sign would be bigger is going to be way better.
Hopefully this will change soon
Is there anyway to get camera view AND keep navigation on? I like to see my surroundings W/O having to lose navigiation view if possible.
Nope. Other than in the new UI your actual turn by turn directions will shift to the left if you bring the cameras up. But that will only show you the next turn, and you will lose the map completely.
Many people want the cameras to auto come up when you put on the directional, then go away when you turn it off.
@@JohnVanderbeck exactly. That would be awesome. Thank you!
At 6:35 in the video you indicate that you are pressing the “break”. You will be pressed to take a break at a Starbucks after a long drive. I believe you meant to say pressing the “brake”.
Your tires are pretty badly underinflated...they should be 42 cold (when the car has been sitting for at least 3 hours). They will go up to 43-45 once you've been driving for awhile. Having them that underinflated will severely affect your Wh/mile ratings. Side note: when I had my Model 3 in to install the Homelink module, they overinflated my tires to like 46. Fortunately I keep an eye on that sort of thing, and I have a digital gauge with a convenient bleed valve to get the pressure right again easily.
Very informative video, answered questions that I didn't even questions to yet! LOL
Thanks... Can't wait to be in the Tesla family.
The percentage is because generally speaking you won't get a ticket if you're within 10% of the posted maximum speed. It's just a rule of thumb.
Another great video Cody. If you look on your door frame there is a sticker which shows what the recommended tire pressure should be. Have a great weekend.
Thank you Kendal! I feel like I am doing all the learning on this one.
Damn man u did not stop talking lol 😆💪 so much information 🙏ℹ️ great video I watched til the end
Just got my M3P and I live in Roy. Take that route everyday.
12%-13% (rounded to the nearest whole number) seems to be the closest to my driving. 34 in a 30, 73 in a 65
Scrolling the right wheel changes the speed of adaptive cruise control. Press in to cancel the hands-on-wheel alert to not adjust the current max speed.
There’s about around a couple of models of BMW that can beat the Tesla Y performance in a quarter mile, the rest gets smoked.
Great video. I wish I’d had it when I first got the car. Because of Covid I had no test drive and no instruction at drop off and had to learn all of this through stressful trial and error. One thing that really messed me up was the grey/blue color scheme. In my computer programs, if something is grey it means it won’t work now. If it is colored, I can push it and turn it on - you can imagine the “fun” this caused in the car.
Oh wow I didn’t even know they weren’t doing that! I better make a video about what to do ASAP!
@@CfTesla well, this was the beginning of June 2020
I wish Tesla had the ability to make the clock bigger and some of the small text on the top of the screen. Or have a bold setting.
I usually really enjoy your videos but found this one to be awkward, maybe too much traffic around you?
Can the owner Tesla or dealer make price for $25000 for low income people or less thanks
It would have been nice to number the tips. This video is too raw too watch.
Can you have 2 different temperatures for each side? Is that what was happening when you pressed and separated the temp??? I can’t figure out how to do that? Or is it just putting the control (for both sides) on either side for a passenger convenience to control it (for both sides?)
Yes you can. Just press on the temp and tap the "Sync" and you will see both. Check out my tips series here: ua-cam.com/video/cFyeXZkSacg/v-deo.html
In the UK you could go 10% over speed limit and not get a ticket. So if you set it to 5mph over speed limit here, you'd get a ticket in a 20mph zone but not in a 60mph zone.
That is a very good point I never thought of that. Thanks!
Just picked up my Tesla yesterday perfect timing!
Congratulations! What did you get?
@@CfTesla model Y long range
@@Not.jc__ Nice man!
REALLY? Tire pressure is low and all you can say is "whatever"?
Dude just watch the video man. It’s addressed later. I am that to the camera
You should try the "percentage" for maximum speed. It will give an example so its easy to understand. ..doing 15 mph over in a 30mph zone is a lot worse then doing 15mph over in a 65mph zone. The "percentage " option will compensate for this
That is brilliant I never thought of that! I’ll be switching
@@CfTesla I think mine is set to 11%..so it does 7mph over in a 30, and 15mph in a 60 zone..or something to that effect..you get the idea
@@jasons7044 might want to check that you didn’t set to 25% over speed limit. 😮
@@davidholt8846 yea...I was off on my estimate....its more like 5/30 and 11/60
@@jasons7044 hey but using percentage is still good idea, I think I’ll try 10% for a while, otherwise you get run over trying to drive speed limit.
Recommended air pressure is listed on your tires side wall.
Hi Maurizio. Maximum pressure is on the sidewall. The door jamb sticker has the optimal pressure based on weight.
@@johnp.weiksnar6861 Both be a little hard for him to check while driving. Though maybe with auto pilot...
@@JohnVanderbeck, I'm a little deflated that you opted to tread on my groove here. I'm a little biased toward humor, so it balances out, but I was ready to mount a rebuttal in no time flat. . . .
@@johnp.weiksnar6861 :D
Wrong. Don't use that. Use what the manufacture recommends, in manual and sticker on drivers door frame/jamb. Be safe. Dont use pressure on tire sidewall.
At 9:55 you said that I should hold the car icon until it says ' a hoy yah a hoy yah. ' and most long time viewers have done. I have not been a long time viewer so I don't know what that accomplishes.
As a model 3 owner who has put lots of highway, back roads driver, I have noticed that when on autopilot ( auto steer ) on secondary roads there are two blue lanes one on each side instead of the single larger blue line in the middle of the display. Also I get the 'nag' about every 9-10 seconds unlike on the interstate where it is about 30 seconds!
I know that I am in the minority because I prefer to drive only at the speed limit so I prefer the mileage on the battery and speed to be in miles versus % .
Another observation that we have spoken about concerning the 'phantom' breaking at yellow flashing lights even when not in use. Whether they are on or off, if you watch the display as you go past the light you will see that it shows a normal 3 light signal light. So to be cautious ( default mode) it sees a yellow light and the red light will be next so it should slow as if to stop.
The Ahoy Ahoy thing accomplishes nothing. It's just a Tesla Easter egg because it referenced what Alexander Graham Bell's first words on the Telephone where. Ahoy derived from the Dutch word hoi meaning hi.
A single blue line on autopilot means it's in Navigate on Autopilot and will change lanes automatically. Two blue lines will only keep you in the lane. Often though the GPS data is incorrect and it will cause autopilot to go from NOA, a single blue line to the two blue lines.
Not the car icon, the PHONE icon. Its just a visual gag.
I m get’n my model 3 LR in March, so this is great, thank you!
Welcome and congrats
IIRC, in the UK the limit you'll be able to go without being pulled over/caught by speed cameras, is 10% + 2mph. 10% due to measurement discrepancies with tyres/speedometers/etc.
This video was well informed, even with the funny bits. But you did leave out a bit piece of information I feel is worth knowing (unless you're already aware of this.) At 16:36 when you mention how to lock the car, from what I know, that only locks the car from the outside so people can't get into it while you're inside unless you let them in. There is a child lock option for the car that keeps the doors locked from the inside, but of course, that only applies to the rear passenger doors.
Hi,
Thanks for the channel. I’m a subscriber since I’ve order my Tesla a few months ago.
in my Tesla when it’s in auto steer and asks to “touch the wheel”, moving the steering wheels buttons doesn’t work. I really have to slightly move the wheel. Am I doing something wrong?
Hello. I love the glass display one. Any ideas where I can get in the UK PLEASE? 🇬🇧
This was a really good reminder CF. We haven’t been driving much either because of Covid so this was good to go over this and remind me of what I need to do at times. The tire pressure has been a problem because I’m not sure how accurate the reading is on the screen.
Now you know why teachers make lesson plans. That was an awful, jumbled presentation! Whew!
Thank you for going over this stuff.
Thanks for watching
Dude, I do appreciate your video but you talk very, very fast! Hard to follow.
Since nothing is guaranteed in either auto pilot or FSD, fiddling with the screen takes one's eyes off the road and is a safety hazard. Unless and until everything can be done via voice command, this constitutes a significant reduction in Tesla's supposedly outstanding safety.
In everyday driving there is virtually nothing you need on the screen while in motion.
Tesla is making a rod for its own back with this whole pale grey illegibility fixation.
When the internal camera reveals that the driver is apparently asleep......but in fact searching for the rear vent control display icon or other such illegibility - what chance bells and whistles go off as ‘distraction’ warnings....followed by .......?
lol well now that is the question isnt it
Great one - really good - one the best tip for me how to get get rid of the blue, I have yanking the wheel or put pressure on the wheel... your tip is awesome man thanks so much for all the other tips..
I have one other annoying situation,
when I reverse the car, the back and the side cameras shows on the screen
And if I bring any other window on the screen while backing... lets say music or Navigation
the Backup cameras disappear... I don't see them on the screen anymore, even my car is is still in 'R'
what I have been doing is, put the car in 'P' and then in 'R'
OR
I touch the back Camera
But I am pretty sure there must be a better way get back the back camera view on the screen ..without jumping redoing manually
ideally the back cameras should become visible once I close the overlaying window..
Thanks for the kind words I appreciate it. I have tried any other way to keep it from going away and it always does. I just have to tap then backup camera button in the screen real quick to get it back. It’s quick and easy.
You went right through Puyallup, my town!
Yup, only in a Tesla where you can read a manual while driving, definitely not in an ICE car!! Love it
Haha so true!
"Too bad I can beat him in a race, anyways.." killed me lol getting my M3LR in Sept, can't wait
You mean can't beat him.
Really great video!
Thank you
Good update for me to refresh my knowledge.
Great info. Is self driving wortH it?
Just a note, when autopilot wants you to touch the steering wheel it's not asking for pressure (squeezing), it's asking for torque (turning) of the wheel. Tesla owners understand this but everyone else doesn't.
picky picky
@@CfTesla I know. lol
"Froggy day" Seattle town. Got my 1st COVID Vaccine shot at VA yesterday; raining in SD today so won't get to test out 2020-48.35.5 until it stops. Thanks for the drive-thru.
Ahh you got that eh. Hasn't been offered to me yet.
@@CfTesla Your a long way from 78. But I hope you guys get it ASAP.
Great tutorial! Thanks
Percentage is much better to use for your mph. There’s a big difference between 5mph at 20mph school zone than on the highway. Otherwise great tips!
Thanks Pete this is something I have learned today from many. Good stuff
@@CfTesla no worries, just passing it on as I learned this from somebody else. You helped me in this one understand that I can swipe up on the odometer area to get different trip meters. Keep up the good work!
What are the list of possible voice commands? Has anybody worked it out or any officially recognised commands published by Tesla?
I can't say I know them all. I have a few videos on the channel of voice commands
Can you add the links

Great thanks
like in pretty much every car everywhere around the world ...
Great video!!
Great info.. Thanks
Thanks for the comment! New tips video today.
Some good points.
Thanks for watching and commenting! I really appreciate it
“You will not hurt the car if you push the wrong way...” Thank you, Cody! You’re the first one who has said that (and, better, demonstrated that!!). I’m waiting on my Model 3, and that one little bit has relieved a TON of wondering and anxiety about me “breaking” my car, before I even receive it. Great job on these videos!
Hey no problem! I was terrified about that myself so one day I just said screw it and hit the button lol.
Thank you so much! Even though I’ve had my car 10 months or so, I had some questions that you answered! 🤔😎
Right on! That is the hope with these. Lots more tips videos to come
