Showing how to replace the 12v battery in a 2022 Model 3 Performance by just reading the service manual. If you can read directions, you can do simple things on Teslas yourself. There are 2 different types, ones with heat pump and the ones without the heat pump so be careful to make sure you are looking at the directions for the correct one. Not sure what would happen if we disconnect the safet...

I get asked almost everyday on how to get started on working on Teslas so I thought I would just make a quick video. This is very simple stuff. First part is very basic on how to unlock the door, how to turn on the vehicle, turning on service mode etc. Then I go through how to look up labor time, look up and order parts, look up repair info and then signing up for them. Everything is free minus...

Here is a follow up to the Tesla service video and personal thoughts on the subject. Mostly in response to those that think these cars need absolutely no service. Some of the things mentioned is just my opinion. I own and daily drive a 2022 M3P, 2021 Model Y and drove a 2013 Model S

Our digital inspection process
Переглядів 121Рік тому
What is a shop to do? We don't want to come off as sleazy and recommend work but then again, it is a great disservice to our customers if we don't look over their vehicle for safety and longevity. The solution is doing a digital inspection where we provide pictures with every recommendation and provide one for every car every time. It's all about honesty and transparency.
What happens when a ball joint separates?

Here we see a car with ball joint failure. We recommend control arms or components within a control arm (bushings/ball joints) when we see that it is worn or making noise. We’ve had customers think we are rip offs bc we recommend them but we do so for a good reason as seen here
Russian sanctions and what that means for you and your car
Переглядів 382 роки тому
Largest Russian export is energy in form of crude oil and natural gas but sanctions against Russia does not include those. 2nd largest export is palladium and other precious metals. Catalytic converters contain those precious metals so they’re already expensive but with sanctions, it’ll get exponentially costly if they have to be replaced. We will start seeing more catalytic converters thefts. ...

What is the orange exclamation mark on my dash?
Hi, I have a 2023 Model 3 Performance US version. They say I can use Dexron 6 ATF for Drive unit fluid. Can I use Redline D6 ATF since it satisfies Dexron 6?
And not one bit of oil anywhere 👌🏼
was funny watching you stumble trying to sell the wiper blade service. We made it look easy lol. It is easy. Thats ok, just tell em that. Its a easy thing but well do it for you.
Thanks, Great video! You missed the 12v battery service.
My wifes car had the rear brake material just brake away on a sub with 13k miles. No warning no noise just just pressed the brakes it came right on on the roading leaving just thr backing
Take it to the junk yard. It’s a N/A it’s worthless. The vr4 is the only version of this that’s worth an engine rebuild. Now here’s what is sad about this particular story. Most likely, The owner is going to do this ghetto engine freshen up by replacing the spun bearing with a new bearing which will never be within spec because the crankshaft journal is damaged as well. So the owner will change the spun bearing, then he or she will sell/dump this car on someone else and pass it off as a good running car. I see this all the time
That's awesome! So cool Brad. Keep on signing my friend.
Ain’t no shame in my game 😂. Harbor Freight has good prices.
womans car😂😂😂😂
I agree
I don’t have these buttons on my settings options can you help me? 2021 Tesla 3 SR+
Thank you, sir! You’re saved me a lot of time!
I think that's an awesome thing to do, we DONT do enough for our military WHO KEEP US SAFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No!!!!.... that filter is for the life of the vehicle....scam...fud
Take the music off my dude , we can’t hear you
That a lied that shop can damage lithium battery 😂. I work at Tesla factory built 2000 car per day. You can jack car anywhere on battery. You don't need any special bs like this technician said.
What vehicle is that?
Jeep Grand Cherokee

Anywhere know where I can go in SoCal to get the drive unit system maintenance?
Good work
You willi help me thanks 🙏
hey i know its a long time since this video but i have a 3000gt sl and the motor got rebuilt but the ticking sound came back any tips?
Yes! He’s right! The instruction on screen are quite specific! Does NOT say gear lever!
I looked at my Wife's car last night and the same thing happened to her. The caliper started dumping brake fluid everywhere because the thing that puts pressure on the pads was fully extended. The pad was missing on the outside and the inside was worn to nothing and the whole caliper was loose. Luckily no longterm damage once the caliper piston or whatever it is called was C clamped back into place, it held the brake fluid, but definitely scary.
Am I the only one paying attention when he said Teslas have oil filters?
Only service you need is tire rotation and to change air cabin filter. On my second Tesla never had a problem.
you need to press the left indicator up while holding the gas pedle
I have been getting over 28,000 miles per set of tires EASILY - NO ROTATION… and still very legal tread depth. 🤔🙏🌏👍👍👍
As a previous Tesla technician years ago I can verify and tell you that Tesla did not use "special lifting pads" to raise customers vehicles. Only time pads were used is when HV battery replacements were performed.
Pucks aren't new. It should have been used on most of the cars you service already.
They're not new, but conventional cars typically have jack points built into the frame that makes using the hydraulic jacks visually accessible. Tesla is one of the fewer manufacturers that omit this....
Went to school for Information Tech now Auto Tech and I fucking love it and hate it sometimes but love it!!!
Why did you post this when it’s not even working and led people to a wrong direction.. and it’s turn stalk which is the left stalk. Not the gear (right) stalk..
Did not work…fail…next time be prepared
Stupid

If you take care of your car it will take care of you!! Do the annual service!!
Where is your shop?

You do not need a tool except for a pick. Pull off the plastic cover and it has a lock pin like old school crank windows. It’s easy.
What other maintenance can i do for my car that is noy mentioned in the manufacturer?
How much for this service? Where is your shop?
Same question here. Thank You
FYI, that isnt a Patriot
Model 3 long range tire rotation is it only front to back?
I just did my front brakes. People say back caliper pins don’t need cleaning if they’re still bouncy. I’m going to be doing those next weekend. I plan on taking pins out to clean and re lube. Not using brakes is almost just as bad as always using them (not really )
Mate never seen a single mechanic bleed brakes by removing just the fluid in reservoir. In 20+ years never seen it before .
CRIIIIIIIIIIIINGE!!!!!!!!😣😣😣😣
Lol. Americans and their tyre rotation obsession. Funny stuff.
Yeah, its funny af.
Per ChatGTP for my 2021 Model Y Tesla has not provided a specific maintenance schedule for the 2021 Model Y as their vehicles generally require minimal routine maintenance. However, some general service recommendations for Tesla vehicles include: Tire Rotation, Balance, and Alignment: Rotate and balance your tires every 10,000 to 12,000 miles or as needed. Check the alignment if you notice uneven tire wear or the vehicle pulling to one side. Brake Fluid Replacement: Replace the brake fluid every 2 years or as specified by Tesla. Battery Coolant Replacement: For the Model Y, it is recommended to replace the battery coolant every 4 years for the Standard Range variant and every 5 years for the Long Range and Performance variants. Replace it sooner if you notice any issues with the battery temperature or cooling system. High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) Filter Replacement: If your Model Y is equipped with a HEPA filter, replace it every 3 years. Air Conditioning Service: For the Model Y, service the air conditioning system every 2 years for the Standard Range variant and every 4 years for the Long Range and Performance variants. High Voltage Battery: The high voltage battery in the Model Y has a warranty of 8 years or a specific mileage limit, depending on the variant. There is no regular maintenance required for the battery, but you should monitor its performance and consult Tesla Service if you notice any issues. Remember to always consult your Tesla Model Y owner's manual or contact Tesla Service for the most accurate and up-to-date maintenance information.
Good video. The problem is that sometimes places charge for diagnostic time but they actually guess what it is, and a couple months later the problem is back. A year and a half ago I was charged 279.00 dollars for changing this same part on a 2017 Jeep Patriot. Check engine light is back on with same P0456 code for the 3rd time now.
If the part being replaced is not original Mopar then I would not expect long term reliability. I put a video out on brand new Nissan sensors that were defective.
This isn’t even a patriot you idiot haha
