[@abclawnworks9127]

voice command google doc doesn't work

[@JremiahJones]

@@abclawnworks9127 Fixed!

[@joeputz4559]

This part was clear. Everything else was on point. The only problem is you mentioned to use percent because a lot of people don't know how to understand Wh/km or Wh/mi. The units name doesn't matter. They're all just a number of increments. Km shows the most, and percent the least. Personally the grey battery icon is perfectly fine and works just like the classic gas gauge anyways.

[@Peter-wz2wx]

The five quick controls does not seem to work for me. No matter how far over the icon is dragged, the last quick is still highlighted. Possibly only works on iPhone?

[@shockingguy]

I specifically have been watching a couple videos this morning before I get this rental about all the emergency take features like trying to exit the vehicle with no power etc. especially since I’m gonna be hauling clueless passengers. So I either need to get a glass shattering hammer or just leave the car and suffer the consequences cause I can get out first ha ha ha ha ha 😝

[@IWatchAndLearn]

This guy has2k subs and has provided more useful information than many of the other established Tesla youtubers. Thank you for this.

[@elvisjames]

Facts. And doesn't have to cheesy approach...or corny "oooo Tesla" demeanor lol I definitely subbed

[@jayjay11501]

@@elvisjames 🎉

[@mTsp4ce]

Yeah .. don't charge to 100%. Nobody has ever made a video about that, like, ever!

[@mattheww9116]

Four years of Tesla ownership, daily Tesla news consumption, and I still learned seven new facts. Nice work man, thank you!

[@BenPellowMusic]

I’m used to these videos being terrible and not showing me anything new but WOW you blew me away by showing me quite a few things i didnt already know. SO thank you!!

[@beachcrow]

That printed booklet in the glove box is *NOT* the full manual, it's the "Safety Information" book for tire care, child seats, etc. The full manual is on the touchscreen or online (either interactive or a PDF download). The actual manual also gets updated to keep in sync with software updates.

[@JremiahJones]

This is correct. In fact, everything within the safety booklet can also be found in the full manual. When I said "in the car" I should've clarified what I meant (in the car, under the service menu) instead of just showing the safety booklet for b-roll. Though I still would rather someone read the safety booklet compared to nothing at all.

[@cathay35k]

Thanks for helping Tesla owners globally❤

[@billligon4005]

I wish I could READ my cars manual on the Tesla app on my phone while I sip my tea. Please. And the new RELEASE NOTES as well. Thanks.

[@rbs427]

Love the 5th quick button

[@georgebarbperkins6793]

I can’t get a 5th icon on the quick controls menu in the iPhone app, no matter how many times/ways I attempt it. Is this an Android-only tip?

[@KineticEV]

Nice. A couple of those I didn't know such as the swiping over and down to navigate home or work.

[@DR-zk2do]

I like how quickly you get to the points

[@kamarpreet]

Got the first tesla TODAY and appreciate I found this video!!!!

[@aquamanm7862]

Very helpful, I knew all except pumping the emergency brake button. Thank you and your video presentation is captivating, articulate and succinct.

[@lbartlett403]

Excellent, very fast paced, no wasted time.

[@victorrosas6508]

Love this vid, the parking brake tip is invaluable, may even save lives. Can’t thank you enough for that. Thank you for your public service! 👍

[@_zach]

Btw, you are slightly mistaken on the brake thing as far as normal driving goes. When you put your foot down on the brake pedal, all 4 brakes are engaged hydraulically. There is no “front when forward” “rear when backward” type manifold trickery going on. The brake pedal in the car actuates the brakes via fluid pressure, but the parking brake indeed is a mechanical servo manually engaging the rear brakes. That’s why it makes that electronic sound when parking and not every time you hit the brake pedal.

[@jeffh9071]

Just got a Model Y and stumbled on your channel. Great content and no bs click bait and no time wasting fluff. Love the RTFM comment! When I tell someone I read it in the manual, no matter the product, and that they should read it too, most give me this dumbfounded look like I’m a crazy person. Or they’re pissed off that I suggested such a waste of their time.

[@jansetiquette1614]

Appreciated the tip on lowering the height of the trunk opening! My garage door rolls up and into the garage. The first time I opened the trunk to remove groceries, the trunk door went up, hit a metal piece on the rolled up garage door and chipped the paint! I can now access stuff ftom the trunk while the car is in the garage. Thabks!

[@DoingFedTime]

I learned a TON fromt his video A+ seriously. Keep crushing it.

[@premiercoachadrian]

Great tip on the breaking!

[@dalgill4175]

Great video. Im more of a visual learner. I knew majority but thats also due to word of mouth and talking to fellow Tesla owners.

[@MsJaggy]

Thanks! Just picked up my Model 3 tonight and I didn't know half of this stuff.

[@realulli]

One correction: when braking, the car always brakes all four wheels. The rear brakes have a servo that will mechanically engage them when parking (by some kind of gear instead of brake fluid pressure).

[@dustinmeier9753]

Correct. All vehicles manufactured in the the U.S. have been required by law to have mechanical engagement of the brakes on at least one wheel (usually a rear wheel) for at least 60+ years to ensure the vehicle can remain stationary on an 8% incline . Most manufacturers use both rear wheels, probably because that regulation got amended somewhere along the line. The parking brake is mechanically latching into position. The servo is just moving it there. The video implies a lack of knowledge that in an ICE vehicle, there is a parking prowl inside the transmission in addition to a cable actuated parking brake.

[@BluueFSD]

@@dustinmeier9753 Couldn't have described it better myself and it is that misconception that all those youtubers have about holding the P button in Teslas. @realulli is just mentioning that holding it while moving is actually actuating the servo that presses the brake pedal to slow down the vehicle (the same way auto emergency braking works, a full application) before actuating the parking brake servos.

[@Gaijin101]

Props for legit good tips. Not clickbait! Love the demonstrations as well. Nice video、subbed！

[@erickvalerio1917]

wow, your channel deserves to be appraised

[@johnbrewer4177]

absolutely the best tip video I have seen! Thank you so much for the lane change information that was sooooo helpful!!! The only other tip I saw that was that big was using the scroll wheel to disengage the move your steering wheel warning. These are great in so many ways.

[@sulingotto]

Great video! Thanks for the hot tips. Btw, great hair 😆

[@elvisjames]

Finally found a sensible Tesla KZbin channel - immediate sub.

[@manamedia]

Very useful! Thank you so much for producing this.

[@wroniec]

Thank you for the parking brake information, been doing it pointless in my MYP.

[@jaymc5011]

You always look like you just got out of bed. 😂 Anyway, great tip without all the commercial interruptions.

[@bohenriksson2330]

Excellent! Have had my M3 for three years and still learned a few new things - thanks!

[@ErenAbiri]

Goddamnn. Why do i got the feeling, watching this dude. He's telling me how to use my car...

[@peterbernard1246]

I learned something.. thank you. And I thought I knew about everything.

Love your channel and straight forward info!! Subscribed!

[@Alex-xx3yc]

Great video! Is there a way to go to in the AC settings without turning it on when it's off?

[@trevorshields7347]

Knew most of them but everyday is a school day. Good information that was not dragged out like many other videos. Keep up the good work

[@MrBrooklyn295]

Very helpful bro thanks

[@juantana7]

Dude! This video was so helpful, thanks! I've had my Model Y since June and watched/researched every video plus read the maual even before taking delivery, and some of this stuff is not intuitive in the manual (IMO) like the parking brake. I learned at least 3-4 more things from this video. The fact that the car doesnt have a traditional parking brake was scary for me at first, we have a place in the mountains w a steep driveway we have to stop on, great to know I can just put it in P.

[@t.r.766]

Push and hold the button and a red P appears setting the parking brakes useful when on an incline. If on flat ground just a simple tap puts it in park

[@drberrydds1]

Extremely well done and very helpful! Just got my MS and don’t know much so this really is great.

[@ocmgforever]

I learned something. Thanks!

[@MelbourneSamurai]

Loved the last part thanks mate

[@SVanDykTX]

Great video. Thanks for covering all these.

[@asciblue]

Great vid, the phone app part helped out, the extra thing on the widget is useful. :D

[@VishnuKamath]

Awesome Video Bro. Great Tips. I didn't know that tesla had these features

[@TheTinRam]

Wow, actual useful tips! Thanks!

[@nvaliulla]

You my friend, have definitely earned my subscription! Fantastic tips and no waste of time whatsoever! Good job!

[@luis1728rb]

Super helpful 80% of these thing I didn’t know thank you 👍🏼

[@dea7hr0w]

Thanks for clearing up the parking brake feature!

[@AndysZumba]

Excellent video thanks for these tips

[@americanrider]

Knew a bunch of the tips, a few I did not, but now I know all 17. Thanks!

[@robeeenz]

Good to know about the “parking brake”. I didn’t know you could have five icons either

[@tonyperotti9212]

Great vid. I DID learn a few things, just as you promised. Subscribed!

[@Model3dude]

Yes… Read your “BING BONG” manual.😂😂😂😂 The best advise to new Tesla owners ever!

[@luketoni2902]

Did not know about the real function of the "manual parking brake" . Thank you!

[@EvgenyMettsler]

1. The pedal brake activates both hydraulic lines (front and rear). The car is stopped by all four disc brakes (one on each wheel). 2. The manual brake (holding the parking button for 3 sec) will engage the mechanical drum brakes on the rear axle! Yes, to your surprise, the rear wheels also have mechanical drum brakes that are actuated by a cable. The cable is tensioned by an electric drive. 3. When you put the tesla in park, it does not activate the mechanical drum brakes on the rear axle and it does not activate any of the hydraulic lines. Instead, the rear axle is locked by the rear wheel drive unit. To be even more precise, this axle locking occurs in 1-speed automatic transmission and not in the hydraulic lines! You're welcome!

[@jrobillos]

Great video for new and future owners; especially with Tesla's updated features. I knew about the emergency parking button, but I didn't know that you can press it multiple times to re-enact an ICE emergency brake lever...good to know. Nice work!

[@JremiahJones]

Jose, glad you enjoyed the video! If the car is in motion the act of hold the parking button is what engages the brake, releasing it will release brakes.

[@MattRettmer]

Good stuff and I'm glad I watched. I learned #7. I was always a bit unsure about the parking brake. Thanks for clarifying!!

[@JremiahJones]

Matt, glad you enjoyed!

[@Warekiwi]

One thing not mentioned is pressing Park button whilst also pressing brake pedal, according to the (UK) manual this applies full park brake and shows red brake icon

[@user-mw8kj8lr3m]

Great video - thanks.

[@haikaido]

Honestly, I clicked this because I thought for sure it was going to be crap and then I was going to scoff and move along.....I was wrong lol. These are actually all useful and not commonly talked about (for the most part).

[@Animeaddictfreak]

Thanks so much! I’m picking up my Tesla in 4 weeks! This is really helpful :)

[@sergiiloskutov]

Great tips! Thanks

[@tomrybold]

thanks for the tips

[@GreenLittleFox]

This guys is so helpful 😮

[@zihenghuang3012]

Really enjoy the way you help us to know how to know tesla better driver

[@TheCanada1]

Thanks. Good vid.

[@Warekiwi]

Excellent video, even after six months of MYLR ownnership I'm still learning. Although I've got the expensive fsd option I've never fully understood the lane change function when NOT using navigate on ap. Now I'll go and try if your method works on UK RHD cars!

[@ihearttesla]

Just an FYI: The learning will never stop!!!! Tesla updates the manual regularly to reflect all the latest changes. After almost 4 years of of having my Model 3...I'm still learning and discovering new features all the time! I just learned about the subwoofer Easter Egg, as well as how to adjust the sound system for optimum sound...It sounded GOOD before, now it's REALLY GOOD!! With all the *amazing* software updates, your car will always feel like new...Actually, way better than the day you took delivery of it! Enjoy your Model Y and FSD...Keep learning!!!👍

[@munkymind]

Good video. The park button info and some of the autopilot info were new to me, and I had forgotten about the manual release for the charger. I did not receive a safety booklet with my 2022 model Y. ???.

[@reubenmarcus]

[@slowercuber7767]

@12:57 GREAT TIP, probably the best in the video.

[@anandbabuperumbala48]

awesome tips

[@firstpablo]

I didn’t know any of them. Just got my new Tesla a few days ago. Thanks

[@ronalvalerio1195]

Thank you

[@i-dinen-lug]

welll... admittedly, I knew all of these "tips" or "tricks", except for the trunk lid height as I still got the manual one. You missed one really practical feature on the AP speed setting part, though! your way works, of course. but WAY MORE PRACTICAL: standard activation of cruise control/AP: sets your current speed. holding the stick HALF A SECOND LONGER on one of the two taps: sets speed limit. that works for cruise control (one long tap) as for AP (one long and one short tap, whichever order)

[@theme34xcp]

Question regarding 12 - while it's possible to sift gears at 5 mph or less, I don't imagine it's very good for the drivetrain, no? Even if it's electrical? It's so useful and if a more knowledgable person on the subject can chime in on, idk if id risk it.

[@TimtheMagician]

Excellent tips. Using the parking brake function to slow/stop is totally new to me. Great to know. I'll also check out the tip on using the turn signal to reduce the pressure needed to change lanes when in autopilot. (It would be nice if you could just disable autopilot without it disengaging cruise control.)

[@sheamurai2698]

you can...just up tap the stalk once (reverse of down-tap to engage), shuts off AP but CC is still on.
