Bought a used 2020 model X, very happy with it so far but finally ran into my first error message. Air conditioner stopped, restarted intermittently, but now seems dead altogether. Does anyone know what these error codes mean or how I can find out more information? I see the manual has some codes but not all. THC_w0016 and MCU_w097 if that means anything to someone. https://i.imgur.com/eN6VJeR.jpg

Second any thoughts in general on what to expect for service appointments? A bit disappointing to schedule an appointment one week away and then get a message that remote diagnosis will take more time with the appointment pushed out a few days. Also tried asking service if the car was at least ok to drive, and they (somewhat understandably) just answered they don’t know without the remote diagnosis but to call roadside if it feels unsafe.

Does it seem like it could be an unusual problem if they can’t quickly diagnosis the issue, or is 5 days plus usual just to get error code feedback?

And sorry but any feedback on what to expect at my actual appointment would be helpful, my concern is I will have to wait 10 days just to be seen and then find out then they have to order a part and schedule another appointment 10 days out, with me not knowing at all if I can even use the vehicle without further damaging it.

Any feedback or thoughts appreciated!

New owner here, MYP (next few days) and was wondering what the experienced folks have to share with regards to must haves (I terior/exterior) and must dos. What are the things you couldn't do without and any neat, "can only be done in a tesla" type do-dads and apps.

For me, it looks to be: PPF film Window tint

Just got my first Tesla delivered today and I'm already wondering what the best way to wash it is. I've read a lot about avoiding automatic car washes due to scratches etc. Is everyone hand washing their Teslas, or do you just risk it in the automatic carwash? Any tips on products to buy, soaps sprays etc?

So excited to have my new car just want to keep it looking nice. :)

EDIT: Thank you for all the great responses! I’m in an apartment building with a white Model 3. I’m going to look into a lot of these waterless car wash products since I don’t have access to a hose, and maybe pair that w a touch less car wash once in a while. Excited to finally be apart of the Tesla community!

As the title says, I can't migrate my local driver profile into a Tesla profile (and have the benefits of cloud sync) no matter what. I gave access to my wife using the tesla app (under manage drivers) and she was able to do it as soon as she drove for the first time.

In my case I don't see the popup (in the lower left) area when I get into the car using my phone key or my regular key. I tried removing all keys, unpairing all phones, and phone keys, removing drivers, restarting display, logging out from phone, updating app, etc.

Tesla support does not include any troubleshooting steps for tesla profiles and their contacting support is barely impossible.

Anybody else having this issue? This is model 3, 2023 (February) running the latest stable software version. Thanks
