My wife has a 2021 Model-y and it\u2019s been amazing. 55K miles and all we\u2019ve done is a set of tires, wipers, and a few cabin air filters.
Pros: amazing, low maintenance
Mileage: 88513 km

I've used both the Tesla ones and the Amazon ones and both resulted in bad smells after 6-12 months. My third set is a similar version of the Amazon ones. I just swap them every 12 months. Also use the foaming coil cleaner this time and things still smell nice after 3 months. Real test will be this summer.
Pros: foaming coil cleaner effective
Cons: bad smells after 6-12 months
I swapped my OEM filters after 4 years and they looked new. Put in one of the “high rated ones” from Amazon and the car started smelling. I’m thinking of just spending the extra money to go Tesla official because i’m not trusting these Temu products that fit the cabin but might be making things worse.
Pros: OEM filters durable, no smell
Cons: aftermarket filters cause smell
You bought garbage , only OEM filters are great for Tesla
Pros: OEM filters great
Cons: aftermarket filters garbage
Don’t get the ones with the carbon in them, buy OEM. The reason is these restrict air flow which is harder on your AC system and testing shows they do a worse job of filtration as well.
Pros: OEM filters better
Cons: restrict air flow, worse filtration
I had these and they created mold also. The oem filters without the "active charcoal" are much better than these and they are cured against mold.
Pros: OEM filters better, cured against mold
Cons: created mold
90k miles on mine and the only cost is charging at home (9 cents per kW), tires and cabin air filter.
Pros: saved $23k in gas
Mileage: 144840 km
I\u2019ve had a M3P for almost 4 years now. Best car I have had. With 38K miles now I have only done the following maintenance. New set of tires $1200, cabin filter $20, wiper fluid $7.99. That\u2019s it for maintenance.
Pros: low maintenance
Mileage: 38000 km
125k miles on my 2020. It's been flawless. Just normal maintenance like tires, cabin filter, and brake fluid. Been to Tesla service center for two precautionary recalls.
In terms of build quality one tweeter speaker got lose which caused a rattle that I was able to fix, and I sometimes get a rattle from the passenger side B pillar, otherwise everything else has been great.
I've lost maybe 10-12ish miles of range due to degradation, most of that happened in the first two years, I've haven't seen it degrade any further in years.
Honestly one of the best cars I've owned.
Pros: flawless, normal maintenance
Cons: tweeter speaker got lose
Mileage: 201168 km
Only needed the air cabin filter mold issue addressed.
Cons: mold issue with filter
Mileage: 120000 km
