I don’t think an entire video is needed for this. To get out there emergency latches for all 4 doors. To get IN you just pop out the tow hook port in the front bumper and pull out the wires connected to the 12v battery, use them to power/charge the battery and unlock the car
Thanks. Great video. I thought I knew everything about the app but I did pick up one tip: the bit about entering your destination through the app and seeing how much battery would be left at the end of the trip. I do have ONE QUESTION: 25secs into the video there’s an image of a screen showing the percent of charging done from Solar, the Powerwall Battery and the Grid. How do you get to that screen? Is it only available if your battery is a Tesla Powerwall?
App is great and use it all the time. But seem to have more frequent issue using my iPhone as the key. Keep getting prompted to use the Key Card in order to drive. Sometimes restarting the iPhone or turning Bluetooth off/on resolves the issue. Some times it just works the next time or maybe the next day. Used to be an infrequent issue but starting to happen much more frequently. Any thoughts on that issue?
Hmm the only thing i can think of is the age of your tesla or iPhone. Newer models of both have better bluetooth technology. I have a 2021 Tesla and I had the iPhone 13 Pro. I had similar issues but it was rare and not as bad as what you're describing. I now have the latest iPhone Pro and have had no issues with the phone key working.
@3:45. Unless Tesla has updated, your tire pressure can be "8 lb" and you'll never know until to try to drive your car, it's not current. I had the unfortunate experience of running out at 11pm, only to get a big red warning on my screen about critical tire pressure. It had been that low for 19 hours! The App will NOT notify. The Service ppl said maybe I had the App off. Even they didn't know it wont alert, even if on. I just checked my App and BTW thanks for the info, it gave me all the tire pressures -- FROM 2 DAYS AGO. Clearly, it's still a problem, a big one. Fortunately, I was home but it could have been catastrophic. I've tried to reach out to Tesla but other than 'Bug Report', it's impossible. If you have a flat tire, you won't know!
@@CharilaosKalogirou Tho I understand 'pretty typical', I'm still unsure why *Tesla* can't send a flat tire alert. Looking at the App and 'assuming' it defaults to the last time the car was 'driven' for pressure readings, still doesn't account for that theory. The screen opened with a big red 'Warning'. I didn't drive. The critical 19 hours, as I remember, was well short of the time it wasn't driven. The car already knew I wasn't going anywhere, is what I'm saying. If so, that same technology could've/should've alerted the App. Thanks for replying, it's more than 'Tesla Service' cared to do. BTW, don't use 'Fix a Flat', they'll refuse to repair and make you buy an new tire ($500.).
Wow, 3-5 days to add your car to the app? That's crazy. I know you said, "Sometimes it's instant," but it sounds like that's not a lot of the time. Considering most people use their phone to control and use their Tesla, I'm surprised it can take that long, especially if you've got all the documents it requires and have jumped through all the hoops. You'll be able to drive the car around with the key card without the app, but how would you use a super charger? Even if you've entered your payment info into the app, the car isn't in the app yet, so I'm guessing it wouldn't work and you're stuck not being able to charge. I'm considering purchasing my first Tesla, a Model X, and I found this video really interesting. Thanks for the info.
Unfortunately as of 4/30 referral program has stopped 😢😢 Elon says it will come back " better " at a later time. And there is no more option for EAP by itself as it is rolled in with FSD subscription which is now 8000 USD
This was just great. I got my new Tesla early March and got 3 friends to get/order them too. Tesla doesn’t tell one any of the basics. My assumption was that you used a credit card at a supercharger..my friends had the same belief as this is how we always bought gas. The federal tax credit/benefit was also confusing. As my delivery date approached, it occurred to me that I had better get serious about becoming informed or I might be sitting on the side of the road with 0% battery. All that to say, this video was incredibly informative. All 3 of my friends are very well off and are always asking me questions about Tesla. When I am in an Apple store, I often notice well heeled more senior people asking basic questions about this or that. I think one could offer an in person starter’s guide to owning a Tesla for say $150. My friend would pay it in a heartbeat…maybe even more.
Thanks, check out my channel i have tons of informative videos for new tesla owners including hidden features that even seasoned tesla owners don't know!
I had to laugh b/c I'd never driven a Tesla b4 they drove mine to my house. My son (he's in his 20's) and I hopped in, ready to go and had no idea how to 'start' the car. To this day, 2 years later, we still laugh about it.
@@FreeRadicals305 to me this is a big miss for Tesla…much like Apple has regular seminars in the Apple stores to show customers how to use and the capabilities of their products, it could be a win for Tesla to host ‘getting acquainted with your Tesla’ sessions at their beautiful Tesla showrooms. I’ll bet it would sell more cars and lessen the intimidation factor. Elon, you listening bro?
Not hating, but in 2024 do people really need these videos, especially if you are a Tesla owner? If so, then I wonder if they even need the car. I’m just questioning people’s level of intelligence that will buy something they don’t understand and need to come to some random person’s TH-cam channel to understand the product vs getting that from the source before they drive away. I get you TH-camrs need a way to make money and this is your only option these days vs a career, so take advantage of people’s lack of intelligence.
This is a very stupid comment. If you've ever purchased a Tesla you'll know that they dont provide in depth information about their cars during the purchase process. Many people buy Teslas because of features like its safety, low maintenance, no gas, etc. They just happen to be equipped with technology that many people may not understand. These videos make it easier to learn visually rather than reading manuals. TH-cam isn't my career and I make these videos because when i bought my Tesla i wish I had this type of information. You should really think before you write senseless comments.
@@MikeSeuss once again, I wasn’t hating on your career choice or your video. It’s the fact that you have to make them. I own three Teslas and didn’t need TH-cam to teach me how to drive it or use the app. People are being told they need TH-camrs to tell them that when it’s not true at all. I’m just saying TH-cam has its place but if you need it to tell you how to operate something you spent thousands on, then it question your intelligence. Before I drove off in my first Tesla the service center went through everything with me because I asked questions. The service center also showed me the little convenient thing that most TH-camrs don’t talk about, the built in owners manual on the screen that will show you everything on the car and app. No car maker puts out a product and hopes TH-camrs figure out how to operate their vehicles better than they do. My point is people are lazy and TH-camrs rely on people being lazy. Your production is great and as a full time job, you are doing good work with. I do apologize for sounding cynical, I just type in Tesla this morning and your was like the 500th of the same type of video for the week and I just noticed a pattern with you guys. But seriously ALL your videos and PRODUCTS look great since you don’t do this full time.

Thanks for the straight forward description
Very welcome
Is viewing live sentry cameras available to everyone?
If you have premium connectivity
Great comprehensive video!
Thank you
Can you do a "how to get out of or into" video in case of an emergency when there is no 12v battery power?
I don’t think an entire video is needed for this. To get out there emergency latches for all 4 doors. To get IN you just pop out the tow hook port in the front bumper and pull out the wires connected to the 12v battery, use them to power/charge the battery and unlock the car

Hey, yes it will only show if you have the power wall system and solar
I enjoy your content , keep it coming Mike especially as a new refreshed M3 LR owner , I love my car.
Thank you

When TPMS indicates that the sensor battery is low, replace the sensor in time.

That is pretty typical of how tire pressure sensors work in cars. They only transmit when you move…

What about quick controls customization for Android?
Its available and works the same way
Thank you. This video was very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Excellent video thank you.

You can charge your Tesla at the supercharger without having it added in the app, it lets you manually do it by choosing location and stall number
how come I can't find "summons"?
You need to have Full Self Driving (FSD)

Nothing about Reminder to Plug In at Home feature that was introduced earlier in the year. So not 'Everything You Need To Know'.🤔
