10 Tesla Settings Owners Should Change Right Away

[@mowcowbell]

For the video recordings, you can also press the right roller on the steering wheel and say 'save dashcam'. I always use 'joe mode' to reduce the volume of the turn signal clicking.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Yes this is true! Good point

[@MrWeeboler]

I just learned today if you press the windshield washer button you can turn on & control the speed of the wipers. I just got my MYP last month so idk if it’s a new feature or if it’s been there.

[@vegasteslafamily]

This is true. Easy way to do it also

[@soniaortiz9904]

Picking up my Tesla M3 next month. Super excited! Thanks for the tips

[@vegasteslafamily]

Congrats! Happy to help out

[@HokageDX]

[@vegasteslafamily]

Awesome congrats! Hope this helped a little

*If I connect a 1TB hard-drive into the glove box port and turn on "Recording", will it record all cameras all the time when I am driving?*

[@vegasteslafamily]

It will, but I believe even in that case it will only auto-save the last hour of footage

[@khaleefax9553]

@@vegasteslafamily last hour because it will fill up the hard drive or it cannot do more than an hour worth of recording?

[@vegasteslafamily]

@@khaleefax9553 I think it just defaults to the last hour as a Tesla software thing, regardless of the size of the hard drive, unless you manually save it some way. I could be wrong as I don't have experience with this, though

[@khaleefax9553]

@@vegasteslafamily From what I am reading ,,, even that last hour is NOT saved. You can only SAVE the last 10 minutes from that one hour recording by a manual command or action. I think Tesla needs an update here. You've got the technology and leading engineers and they can't understand the basic concept? All dashcams must record and save the video all the time till your connected storage device is full. And only then it should prompt a message to overwrite it? Which will give the owner a chance to go thru the recorded data and save whatever clip they wanted to save.

I live in Vegas too and have had my MY since August. While I knew about most of these, now I know what Joe Mode does and going to try that out! The left scroll wheel i'm certainly going to use for the glovebox too

[@vegasteslafamily]

Hello local! Awesome glad I can help out at least a little

[@kylemckenna]

Just ordered my M3P! Excited to pick it up next week. Have been watching all your videos lmao.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Congrats! ⚡️ hope we helped a little bit lol. Appreciate you watching!!!

[@kylemckenna]

@@vegasteslafamily Certainly!

[@dougmanck4149]

What if I want to keep doing what I've always done? Turn on the heat or air and listen to the radio as I drive

[@vegasteslafamily]

You can always do that! haha

[@beelust4312]

Thanks for the tips 😊

[@vegasteslafamily]

Glad they were helpful!

[@masterkenobi4066]

I’ve been on advanced since purchasing and haven’t received any of the new holiday software updates.

[@vegasteslafamily]

They roll them out over a certain period, some sooner than others, but advanced always before standatd

[@CINDERCreative-h8s]

How do I log in & stay logged into YT?

[@vegasteslafamily]

Once you log in it shouldn't log you out on your profile

[@CINDERCreative-h8s]

Yeah it does. I have to log in every time

[@Joe-lb8qn]

New user here. Knew most of these, the final tip i am certainly going to use for wipers. Unfortunately 'advanced' for software isn't cutting it for me, still no holiday update.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Yeah the rollouts are slow sometimes - but advanced always gets it before standard!

[@eddieoldsjr]

I wanted to ask, we have two Tesla model Y, the one that I primarily Drive I set up my seating profile to my liking… but whenever I drive my wife’s car I click on my seating profile, but it’s never in the same position as it would be in my car. Have you ever noticed that? We’re on each other phone keys btw so it should keep storage of all the settings

[@EvanJohnsonEtc]

I noticed this with a 21 MY loaner vs our 23 MY

[@vegasteslafamily]

I noticed that - I think it auto assumes my position in my wife’s Y, but after I changed it once it has been fine

[@CINDERCreative-h8s]

Is FSD tied to profiles? My wife doesn’t use FSD but would use Autopilot.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Yes it is

[@kabish0603]

Don’t use honk, just set it to your left scroll wheel long press

[@vegasteslafamily]

Also an option

[@GrumpyWolfTech]

4:25 damn it! lol Also if you have stocks in your vehicle, windshield wipers are easy to access.

[@vegasteslafamily]

😂😂 we try to throw these in the video once in awhile - first one that we have gotten a comment on it 😂

[@newstart4jim]

How does it work when my wife and my phone are both in the car?

[@vegasteslafamily]

Good question! I should’ve covered this, but in Bluetooth menu, you can set one phone as a priority device. That way if it detects both phones, it’ll default to the priority device’s settings

[@lwrjmpr]

For the wipers I quick tap the button on the end of the left stalk and then left scroll to the speed I want. It has to be a quick tap or it will spray windshield washer fluid lol

[@vegasteslafamily]

I should’ve mentioned this - we don’t use them often in vegas I forgot lol

[@EileenNguyen24]

Wanna come with me to my Tesla delivery end of December? I got a M3 RWD.

[@vegasteslafamily]

Awesome congrats!!

[@justinwnuk8194]

I live in Vegas too. I had an accident on the road recently. Where did you take your model 3 for auto body repairs? Thanks. Love your channel

[@vegasteslafamily]

Sorry to hear that. The collision center on the south end of town - they were great

[@GetThisNick]

🫵🏼😧 JOJO MODE

[@vegasteslafamily]

Wonder what that would entail

[@MrDutchJefff]

Sentry mode uses to much energy

[@calvinwalker4654]

You only need sentry mode on when away from home. Even if you’re parked 12 hours a day away from home that’s it’s than 50¢ worth of electricity per day. It’s cheaper than the $1000 deductible you have to pay if someone hits your car and you can’t identify them. However, in 5 1/2 years, it would be cheaper paying the deductible rather than the electricity. I only use sentry mode when I go into a store so it’s at most one hour per day so significantly cheaper

[@MrDutchJefff]

@calvinwalker4654 that's true

[@vegasteslafamily]

It does, but it’s worth it

[@SinanATASOY]

I think its a bit to late for this video..

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha why? More new teslas are being sold today than ever before

[@SinanATASOY]

There is no new information in the video. There are already to much old videos with the same information. Maybe you can introduce the new software 2024 44

[@RelevantMystery]

​@@SinanATASOYI've had my car for almost a year, watched hundreds of videos and still learned something new.

[@felipemedina3822]

Elon musk developing JoJo mode!!

[@vegasteslafamily]

Haha wonder what that will entail!

[@jima7756]

My favorite Tesla setting is: don’t buy a Tesla!

[@vegasteslafamily]

Thanks for watching lol
