Cf Tesla I think it’s a third brake on the rear wheels only. Also the brakes in a Tesla are very unique. They actually lift off of the pads so as not to create any drag. This is one of the unique innovations of a TESLA. There are many innovations like this. Also I’m not aware that your battery is warmed up when you put in a supercharger station unless certain factors occur. Number one you need to be within a certain distance of it. Number two that distance changes depending on how cold your batteries are in the outside temperature. This is all part of the battery management software or BMS that make teslas so efficient. I am aware that you can use your app to turn on The temperature inside of the cabin and I have been told that this of course will warm up your batteries. I try to do this about 15 minutes before I go anywhere. The other thing you can do is change your charging time so that it ends very close to the time you plan on leaving. Or you can charge most of the way in charge the last five or 10% just before you leave. Thanks keep up the good work and I hope your channel grows bigger. I started a UA-cam channel but I never put much time and energy into it. But I am long on Tesla And hold quite a bit of stock in it. And I know several other UA-cam or’s that have met Elon Musk. You might know one of them Eli Burton. He’s the one that goes around dressed as Starman.
Geoffrey Hodies thanks for the info. Had a friend who’s car was sort of rolling down his driveway in park and just told me about this also how this fixed the problem. Thanks for taking the time to post this!
Geoffrey Hodies I know the pre-facelift Model S had the dual brake calipers (1 for rear pads and one for ebrake instead of a standard drum) like what most supercars use. After the refresh they went to the one caliper (1 piston I believe instead of 4), but I’m not sure where the ebrake went (maybe drum?). How is it on the Model 3?
At 8:37 in video. You touch the defroster button once (goes blue) all it does is blow more air towards windshield and side front windows by side mirrors. This is to help a little to prevent windows from fogging up. However, in cold weather (Minnesota 5 below) you want to add more heat to clear the fog/frost. So you touch defroster button again (goes red) and heat level goes to max. Off, blue-blow, red-blow hot.
The touchscreen doesn’t respond to the heat (or pressure) of your finger. It is a capacitive surface so it’s actually detecting the electric charge of your finger. The folded cloth blocks the charge but the thin fabric allows it to pass thru. A temperature based screen would have all kinds of issues when cabin temp and screen surface temp varied. Not being picky - just thought you’d want to know how it actually works. Great tips. Again
Fantastic video with great tips when I first got my Tesla model 3 friends kept telling me I had parked it with the window(s) down. I soon learned that I was nudging the window control buttons as I opened the door and got out. ( they were so quiet I never noticed) but I didn’t know you could close the remotely so each time I had to make a trip to the car. I do the cloth cleaning of the cameras and I also use rain x on the pillar cameras ( but no the other cameras) and it helps a lot stopping the ‘your pillar cameras are not working’ warnings every time there is heavy rain or low winter sun. Biggest help there though was joe at Tesla service found the clear protective transit film had NOT been removed from the pillars. I couldn’t even see the film so if your having a lot of pillar camera warnings its worth checking. Great video and thanks for making it slick, short and too the point. An awful lot of long over egged videos these days maybe looking to get more adverts.
Thanks for all the kind words and tips Douglas! I haven't tried the Rain x on the pillar but I have been wanting to because it is a problem here in Seattle for sure. I am definitly going to check about the film but I don't get many warnings there. Please keep commenting!
Great comments from your fans. You mentioned that double tapping the defrost puts it into HI. I also read or heard it also turns on the outside rear view mirror heaters. I tried it while visiting family up in Montana and the mirrors instantly started defogging. Haven’t needed it since I’m back in central Texas. 😱
Another great video CF. Here's a temperature tip for those of us who live farther north that ties in with your double tap defroster tip. I've noticed once it gets below -30C, the cabin heater just can't keep up unless I put HVAC into recirc. But within a couple minutes, the windows start fogging up. Then I double tap the defrost and it goes full into defrost (with recirc off so it cools off pretty quickly!). Once the windows are clear, one tap of defrost sets it back to your last HVAC setting (recirc off) but then you get warm air again. A bit of a pain but it gets me home (45 minute drive) safely and warm.
Awesome as always. Love that just when I thought I knew everything, there were a few tidbits still to learn! Just the other day I was watching a video and didn’t feel like going out of it, turning on screen cleaning mode, and wiping it down; but the fingerprints were really annoying so I had to. Folding up the wipe was a good one, obvious now that I see it.
Most funniest thing is I never knew how to unlock doors from inside until I saw your tip :) Finally after 4 months of ownership I can now unlock my doors with a fast touch...
The Tesla function that I absolutely love is operated from the Tesla App and it is under the Control feature called "vent" which lowers all 4 windows about 1/4" and even at highway speeds it provides a wonderful flow of fresh air - a little noisy at freeway speeds but for city driving it's wonderful. Problem is you have to activate it from the Tesla App, not on the display which means you have to stop the car to engage it.
Great tips, CF ... and I don't even have my MY yet🙃. Anything that makes working with the display easier is good stuff. Cheers, sideman (just sub'd today).
Ya that would be great! Half to admit though that it’s funny how spoiled we are in this day and age that we can drive this crazy machine and feel bummed we have to check our phone for time lol. My parents didn’t even have cell phones and now our expectations are so much higher! Good time to be living
Regen breaking sent our car into a skid 2 times now and caused damage to our front left wheel when the car slid into a curb. Called Tesla help line and explained that they just got rid of the ability to control the regenerative breaking. HUGE PROBLEM IN LOW TRACTION CONDITIONS!
Thanks Cody! I'm months away from my delivery of my first Tesla. Loving the tips, I will actually know how to make the most of it when it arrives :-) I went for a test drive, before looking at any of the UA-cam tesla stuff and found it crazy I was sitting in a car and not sure how to drive it... Maybe teslas aren't the best cars to offer unescorted test drives on... Got used to it v. quickly... But mid way through the test drive.. I was thinking how can I get one... Ended up being a rather expensive excursion... I only went there to experience a bit of Tesla tech , given that I'd preordered a cybertruck immediately when it launched...oops ;~} Anyway, v. well done on your really helpful channel.. I've seen many, but felt able to make my first comment! (ever on UA-cam) keep up the good work :-)
Tom Howseman Tom that means so much to me! All I want to do is bring useful info to the community. So much of what is found here comes from you all and your help! Please keep commenting and asking for the info you want
Oh no thank you Mitchell! Please continue to help us all. I am a totally rookie Tesla guy trying to figure this out. People like you make me look good!
I get an Error using Tesla sharing Ap. It says..your vehicle does not support sharing from a mobile device! I am driving a new Model Y. Do you know why this doesn't work???
I just bought a new Y and have gone through all ur helpful tips that you did for the model 3. It appears now that the latest you have made replies is 6 months ago. I did have a question below that I was hoping you would reply to. Guess not. Do you know of any source for getting technical questions answered? Thanks.
Great videos! I can't seem to find the answer to this... What is the thin line that moves above the speed limit icon? It changes from grey to green sometimes???
That is the battery power direction. When it is green it is putting power back into the battery using the regeneration from the wheels when it is grey you are accelerating and drawing power out of battery.
nongnooch dunn you have to pay for that. It’s kind of like a software update. Once you buy it they send it to your car. Older versions have it but not 2019.
I have learnt a lot from your Tips especially the one of leaving your car for a long period of time. I go to Cyprus for about 3 months twice a year. Question is should I leave the car joined to the Internet so as to pickup any updates that come through, as I don't want to miss them. Can I get them when I come back leaving the car not on the Internet Hope you can help
James Duffy James all I know in this topic is what others have told me as I have never left my car for Ming periods. I have been told you don’t loose the ability to update when you wait. My question would be though if your car is plugged in at home what is your concern with the battery? Why not just let it update as they come and keep it plugged in?
Another great video. I like the tip about warming the battery with the prep for supercharging. However, I wonder if too much use of the battery rapid warming will be bad for the battery. Any thoughts from you or other users?
Is there a way to program seats, steering wheel and mirrors for your preference. My wife and I share the car, but she is 5'1" and I am 5'9" and our setting preferences are completely different.
How do you delete a "recent" station you just listened to from the screen? Also, how do you get screen to show to charging stations along your route? P.S - Your video's are very informative !!
Hi Richard from my understanding you can't get a recent station off your screen until you go to enough others that it gets pushed off. There is very little if any customization on the screen at this point. To find the stations on the route tap the screen when you are navigation and on the bottom right in the same pop up as the satellite map on/off toggle there is a lightning bolt you tap.
Do you have any tips for protecting the paint? I hear Tesla can't use paint hardeners in the Fremont CA factory so I hear many people get coatings and wraps. What are your thoughts please?
You are correct that a lot of people do this and it is recommended. However they do out many coats of paint on the car, I think I heard it was 6 or 8 so that helps. They recommend to at least put a coating on the front of the car. Even though I decided not to myself it is a good idea if you have they money.
Thought of a neat extension to one of these today... in the Nav, all the recent trips are available to re-select. Well, so are all the trips you share from your phone. So, one thing that’s not yet supported is multi waypoint trips; but, if you spend a few minutes sharing each intended waypoint destination to the car, then they are in the car Nav waiting for you. With that, each can be selected along the way as you go from one destination to the next.
But where this technique would be super useful for even right now is for a real estate agent taking their clients around for house tours. Or even someone themselves finding homes to look at on Zillow and just sending the addresses over to the car to make it easier to go from one house to the next.
carrema see that’s me every day. I am constantly heading to clients homes here then dropping off docs there then meeting one of my agents here lol. At least it does read it off my calendar so it sort of works but it would be cool to have it all in there at once to see the route and plan
Cf Tesla one day! At least we know we have a basis for this to eventually be realistic should the feature be prioritized... can’t say that for most any other in-car Nav system.
Hi, cf. My 2020 model 3 long range on has 290 miles fully charged and I know it's suppose to be around 320 miles. Can you help me in any way to fix the problem? Not able to get any help from Tesla. Thanks
Hi Khai ya that mileage stuff is a little strange. I have been told by many at Tesla that the batteries loose range fast at first then taper out. Mine was around 310 when I bought but most I could get from day 1 was about 295. Now it is about 280 after a year of owning. Did it ever charge higher?
What I don't like is in every cool tips video about the m3 it mentions that you can put it in different gears under 5mph like it's magic... You can do that with a regular ZF gearbox also which a lot of manufacturers use
vadam59 this isn’t a comparison video to other cars. It is letting m3 owners know what they can do with theirs. I’m glad other cars can do this. Many people don’t know this...nothing wrong with letting them know
@@CfTesla Yeah, it's not directed at you specifically, sorry! It's a great video, but you know this was the 1001st time, so I had to get it out of me...
I used an “I-PASS” transponder for tolls in Illinois in a Model S in the past and it did not work because of something in the glass. Does yours work on the Model 3? If so, they must have changed the glass type in the Model 3.
I see that parking mode is set by pressing the button, is really no risk that when driving and activating autopilot Park is set? Does the car prevent it at certain speed? Cheers!
Yes, that's an iphone thing. Long pressing the app on Android does not do what is seen in the video. There may be a widget you can install on the desktop though, but not sure as I am still waiting to take delivery of my Tesla.
I'm still learning new tricks about the car after almost 2 years of ownership.
Please continue to share them with us all!
Your work to sift through user tip input and highlight some of the key ones is much appreciated. It saves so much time for other owners.
Thank you so much for saying that! Cheers!
Tip: The road toll thing you have in your window; you can put it in the frunk, so you dont have to see it! :)
Fredrik Gyllensten what about how I switch It between toll and carpool?
@@CfTesla We don't have that here in Norway, only one piece.
Press and hold the park for five seconds and you’ll turn on the parking brake.
Thanks I learned some new stuff.
So there is a difference between the break that gets put on when you hit park and the "parking break" when you hold? I did not know this. Thanks
Cf Tesla I think it’s a third brake on the rear wheels only. Also the brakes in a Tesla are very unique. They actually lift off of the pads so as not to create any drag.

Cf Tesla Thank you that’s good to know. I really only use it when I change the tires and how to jack up the car

Fastest way to to exit Screen cleaning mode is to tap on the brake

Nope not much! But it’s been raining here for 3 days. I’m ready for sunshine ☀️

We need a digital clock above entertainment and arcade modes near the temperature. I must look at my phone for time.
Bonnie Pernick Great idea. Touching the time area and get a big clock for 10 seconds would be really handy.

Great tips! I’m in the process of making a video of all the tips so I have to watch hours of videos haha
At 5:08, You're the expert, but is the touch screen really based on heat? I assumed it was capacitive.
Any way to re-size the map to take up more space on the screen ?
Can you use a stylist on the tesla screen
Can we use a rubber tip pen instead of our our finger?

Hi Nico, meet Noco
Another great video. I like the tip about warming the battery with the prep for supercharging. However, I wonder if too much use of the battery rapid warming will be bad for the battery. Any thoughts from you or other users?
Ya that is a good question!? I would be curious on this as well.
I was told by the Tesla service center, I should do that in winter to ensure I have regen braking. But still a good question.
Is there a way to program seats, steering wheel and mirrors for your preference. My wife and I share the car, but she is 5'1" and I am 5'9" and our setting preferences are completely different.
Yes there’s a way to do it. You have to go in settings and save the memory of your preferences to your different profiles
How do you delete a "recent" station you just listened to from the screen? Also, how do you get screen to show to charging stations along your route? P.S - Your video's are very informative !!

vadam59 this isn’t a comparison video to other cars. It is letting m3 owners know what they can do with theirs. I’m glad other cars can do this. Many people don’t know this...nothing wrong with letting them know
@@CfTesla Yeah, it's not directed at you specifically, sorry! It's a great video, but you know this was the 1001st time, so I had to get it out of me...
vadam59 lol hey no sweat man but thanks for saying that! Cheers!
I used an “I-PASS” transponder for tolls in Illinois in a Model S in the past and it did not work because of something in the glass. Does yours work on the Model 3? If so, they must have changed the glass type in the Model 3.
Scott Larsen well I hope so. I haven’t used it much but I’ll pay attention
The Ipass works in my M Y while located on the windshield.
Can you do something about Voice Commands? Nice videos.
Here is my most recent on this: ua-cam.com/video/NGMMURW6CqE/v-deo.html
Open this link on your phone: teslavoice.glideapp.io/ There are over 200 known to work voice commands with a bunch that are "coming soon."
Ayy im pretty early
I see that parking mode is set by pressing the button, is really no risk that when driving and activating autopilot Park is set? Does the car prevent it at certain speed? Cheers!
DOM good question. No there is no worries there. The car won’t let you hurt it. I have tried 😀
Do you know how to read audio playlists through USB HD in Model 3?
hmm you know i wasn't even away you could do that. Do you know for sure this is possible? If so ill post about it and well get some answers.
So I hear that the ‘Stats” app will NOT wake the car up when you check your car stats??
My understanding is it will wake it up when you check it but when the app is not open it wont pull the data. That's what sets it apart.
What are the 1/2 circles that are sometimes gray, orange or red, along the side of the road.
On the screen or map or actually on the road?
That’s showing objects close to your car. The colors represent the distance, gray furthest, red closer
On the screen, by the road lines
Cf Tesla on the screen by the road lines
Yas thanks
How do you get the battery to show % instead of miles?
mudieg settings > display > Energy Display “Energy”
Cf Tesla thanks just finished watching your video and the very next one I watched explained it. 😏 typical. Thanks anyway for the quick response. 👍
@@mudieg I do my best man!
I don’t have the window options on my model s.
Vallens Duval oh really!? Didn’t know that
I’ve heard that some drivers have the vent option, but I can't seem to get that option.
Vallens Duval my brother in law has one but the 10 minutes with that is my only exposure to those.
If I press on the Tesla App I do not get the display. Is that just an iPhone thing?
Don C. I haven’t heard that but I have never tried it on any other device.
Yes, that's an iphone thing. Long pressing the app on Android does not do what is seen in the video. There may be a widget you can install on the desktop though, but not sure as I am still waiting to take delivery of my Tesla.
I don't think the screen senses the heat from your finger. ;)
EV Bike Dude nope it doesn’t. Bad info I got online but thankful for you all who corrected me. Cheers!
You lost me at “everybody loves Garfield”. Only a complete sociopath would say that.
