My Tesla's latest software update convinced it's a motivational guru - keeps whispering "you're enough" while drifting corners like a pro. Inspiring! Grab your own pep-talking speed demon with my referral link and get a discount applied: ts.la/junior56851

Yes, FSD Supervised update 2026.17.5 has arrived for Phoenix! Looks like I'm in the first wave so super happy. No WIFI at the moment so will download in the next hour through hotspot. Excited!

Not sure if it's a coincidence with the FSD approval for Belgium, but Phoenix has been waking up every hour today. Normally she sleeps deeply when parked. Something's going on πŸ‘€

Beautiful Ultra Red, no badges, front sticker licence plate, full PPF with coating. Except for the different interior color it's basically Phoenix's bigger, angrier and faster brother πŸ”΄ Belgian duo photoshoot needs to happen in the future! πŸ₯°
The way the @Tesla Ultra Red changes with the lighting is jus amazing. It ranges from bright vibrant red in the sun with all metallic flakes doing their work, to burgundy in the shade. Such a great color 😍

Found what looks like a bug in Track Mode. The whole left side of the screen locks up completely. Music slider, swipe cards, warning dismissals...all frozen. You're stuck looking at it. Anyone else seeing this? I'm on TeslaOS version 2026.14.6 @Tesla

Parked next to the police station last weekend. H&R VTF springs are on, Phoenix a lot lower than OEM, and Ultra Red isn't exactly helping her blend in πŸ˜… Got some Sentry notifications, people staring and pointing at the car 😊

Phoenix is finally sitting where she belongs: H&R VTF springs installed last Friday. A touch lower than planned, but visually it's exactly right. Comfort is way better than expected at this height. And a big step up from Eleanor on the KW V3. Only real test left: underground parking lots πŸ…ΏοΈ That will decide if she stays here or goes up a notch.

Next Friday, Phoenix will be lowered a bit with new springs & the bluetooth TMPS sensors will be installed on the Vossen wheels. Not planning to drop the car to the ground. I think a good first iteration will be around 2,5cm and see how it looks and if comfort levels and daily usability is still OK
The decision is made, finally: Phoenix is getting lower. After weighing the options, I went with the H&R VTF springs and ordered them yesterday. The height adjustability, the ride quality reports, keeping the OEM electronic dampers, and TUV approved...all reasons to go for this setup. Updates to follow once they're in!

The next TeslaOS update coming in, version 2026.14.6 with security fixes and improvements. Again in front of the line for this version it seems. Currently on 2026.14.3, Model 3 Performance 2026, Belgium, with AI4 hardware and FSD.

Frost blue is getting all the attention right now, and justified! Love the color πŸ‘Œ But Phoenix doesn’t mind. Ultra red speaks for itself πŸ”΄

Spotted the black headliner option in the Model Y during my service visit yesterday. Alcantara looks more premium, but the black fabric? It gives a luxury & sporty vibe that the beige version just can't match. Shame it never made it to the Model 3 with last year's 2026 update

First service visit with Phoenix was positive! Seat noises are gone (for now). The noise was caused by loose seat clips and bolts. Technician adjusted the interior trim and torqued the bolts securely. And they cleaned the inboard glass from the forward camera as well. Good experience, and I asked 4 TPMS sensors too for the Vossen wheels, which was all registered and paid via the Tesla app. Flawless experience..one downside: I was there for about 3 hours, but I worked in the customer lounge

I arrived at Tesla service center in Zaventem for my service request appointment, and the following window popped up when I put the car in park. Don't think this was already in place during my last service visit πŸ€”

Ok ok, took me a few days, but they're growing on me. Wasn't fully convinced at first, but the HF-4T's tinted gloss black on Ultra Red just work πŸ”΄πŸ–€ Now waiting for the lowering springs to complete the stance!

Vossen summer setup is on. And I'll be honest: not sure it's an upgrade over the OEM Performance Warp wheels. Thought I'd be more excited after the replacement. Instead I'm standing there questioning myself if I should just use the Warp wheels all year around and sell the Vossen set πŸ˜… Last photo is the Warps, just before the swap. You tell me: which looks better? Also, the TPMS sensors in the Vossen are still using 433 MHz and no Bluetooth, so Phoenix doesn't recognise the new wheels, which results in a warning on screen πŸ™„

Summer setup finally incoming this Friday πŸ”„ Eleanor's Vossen wheels are finally meeting Phoenix. First time on Ultra Red, and I'm genuinely curious if they'll look better here than they ever did on white. OEM vs Vossen on a Highland M3P, let's see who is the winner!? Also looking forward to the Michelin Pilot Sport 4S again

Update was downloaded in about 10 minutes or so. First time it went that fast. Most of the time the pause at 50% takes 10 minutes πŸ˜‚
