Feature request: podcasts app to recognise subscriber benefits
I am subscribed on Apple to a podcast. This gives ad free versions as well as early access. However the podcasts app on the Tesla doesn’t recognise subscriber benefits. Could it be made so that it does?
Any *confirmed* solution for front plate that works with PERFORMANCE model Y Juniper?
I’m not sure why this has been so difficult. There are tons of options on Amazon, etc, but nothing specifically mentions compatibility with the Performance variant, which clearly has a different front end. Some comments on several of the listings confirm they do not work with the Performance

Looks like Louisville is getting a new charger across 36 from the service center. This will also have solar canopies.
Supercharger - Hudson, WI
Not sure how new this is, but noticed a “coming soon” pin in Hudson, WI at a Target off 94: https://www.tesla.com/findus?bounds=45.11513130004124%2C-92.4530833154297%2C44.53559755954465%2C-92.99278668457032&location=452068&functionType=coming_soon_supercharger&filters=coming_soon_superchargers
Model 3 access in the dark
This is just some feedback to TESLA. I recently approached my new Model 3 in darkness for the first time and couldn't find the door handle until I used the light in my phone. It would be convenient to have an LED behind the lever to show its outline.

NeuroHUD: The Heads-Up Display Tesla Forgot
Hey everyone! We’re the NeuroHUD team, and we’d like to share something we’ve been working on — NeuroHUD, a heads-up display built specifically for Tesla owners. Tesla was initially planning to release the Model 3/Y with a heads-up display, but ultimately that feature was scrapped, likely due

Check out this post: https://twitter.com/x/status/2110117857556353440 But I read the whole Twitter thread and don't see any mention of how he did it. Anyone know?
Tire life too short
2021 Tesla model 3 AWD with 30k miles. Replaced tires at 18k miles. Tires Plus suggested new set of tires needed as tires are at the end of useful life. I only drive in chill mode, mostly on surface roads not highways. Tires are rotated every 6250 miles as recommended. Michelin primacy MXMS. What am I doing wrong to cause them to wear out so quickly? I searched for a similar thread but nothing jumped out. Apologies if a thread already exists.

Why write this post? A lot of people are starting to get interested in IO. I don’t think Octopus do a very good job of spelling out the benefits in their website. They have some FAQs, but the same questions keep coming up over and over on the forums. What is it? In a nutshell, IO is a split

Lane Departure reset to Assist every time car restarted now
There’s a couple limited Lane Departure threads, but none about this. I have always had Lane Departure Avoidance off. I drive on a lot of 4-5 lane roads and I often hug the left lane if passing a sketchy dumptruck or similar in the right lane. When this is on it steers me towards said
Should I buy ESA? 2022 Mdl S Plaid
