I was curious to why this happens and I went ahead and found this helpful video. I have taken my car twice to Tesla to get it fixed and ever since I put my fan speed on low it doesn't happen. But thanks for the helpful tips i will get the seal and hopefully mitigate the water from coming in.

This was very helpful. I had to subscribe, thank you so much

What part of WNY are you from ??? I’m in North Buffalo area

Thank you very much! ❤

poor design

Thanks so much for all the information you provided! I made all the changes you suggested in January and have gotten through all of Spring and the wettest part of Summer in Florida with absolutely no A/C smell. Thank you so very much.

The smell is the driver’s and passengers sweaty greasy azz….. Nothing to do with the car, stop the nonsense.

Hi, I just find out this video, and I have an idea. Why don't you 3d print a face down cover that replace the original big air tunnel allowing the air intake from the bottom of the car so we can just remove the original one and install the new face down vent cover. And for the vent-in opening under the hood, since we don't really need it, print another cover just block it for good. I think that will solve the most of the issue, and the only thing we need to concern is the air quality if we pull air from the bottom and inside the motor compartment. That might just be another proofing video for you to make lol.

Thanks for the info!😀

I truly appreciate your explanation of why we have to use the auto wipers when using cruise control. It now makes sense why they cannot fix this issue of the wipers switching to auto mode when using cruise. They have to use auto. As a side note could you consider making a video on the after market anti nag devices. I really need to turn nag off with my driving style. Or if you have a better solution. I am tired of waiting for Tesla to fix or possible not be able to fix the nag.

Hi Adam, cool video! I really love your video content and was wondering if you'd be interested in a collaboration. Is there any way to contact you for collaboration?

Sorry for the question, I already bought the orange clip from you on eBay, but I haven’t opened my vehicle yet to change the filters. I’m someone who’s afraid of taking things apart because I can never put them back together. My question is, in some videos I saw that there are 2 filters in the Model 3, on which of the two filters should the orange plastic be placed, the one on the bottom or the top? Sorry for this question, maybe you explain it in the video, but my level of English is very low. Thank you!

Wow what an effort. Thanks for the community service!

I'm thinking, what if the drain hole gets clogged and fills up that little basin and can't drain fast enough. I have a portable AC in my room when one night i was sleeping and was awaken by the sound of water splashing everywhere. I had never had this issue before so i thought the collection basin on the bottom was just full. I emptied it and it wasn't much water so i was confused. The problem kept persisting and water kept building up in the cavity where the fan was and the fan was spinning water everywhere. I took it apart and found the hole at the top that drains water through the evaporator dry off and whatever water doesn't, drips into the basin, was plugged up with dust. So the dust was preventing the water from draining quicky and causing it to buildup which explains why there was no water in the basin until hours after i turned it off and it slowly drained. Maybe some people's drain holes get clogged based on where they live and what is being sucked in and getting past the filter, IDK I'm just yapping😂

why the air is condensing near the bottom hole? That's easy, because the air would rather go through that opening instead of fighting its way through the filter.

Impressive video!

You should check the moisture after running the A/C the cold attracts water like a cold glass of water on the outside. Try testing moisture after having the car off and turn off the A/C a few minutes before exiting the car to see if it removes the moisture from the filter.

Wow! What a piece of crap! Unbelievable!

Guide pins are fine with silicone based lubricants, but things like your brake pads should only used metallic based lubricants. Daily driving, you should be fine with using an aluminum anti-seize, whereas with more aggressive driving you will want a copper anti-seize. Silicone based lubricant is not meant for high temp parts.

Tesla should hire you - thx for the vid

Great info! Thank you!

Hi Adam! I have the piece of the missing seal it came out intact but is a bit bigger then the one shown in the video. Do you think it would be possible/ easier to seal said piece back into or to do the method you demonstrated?

This worked great for my old Zebra 450 ctp! I struggled for months until I found this video. Thank you!

Great video!

Love this video. Fantastic maintenance info. Question: Have you seen videos regarding cleaning the Tesla radiators? What are your thoughts and have you attempted that yet?

Thanks!

Excellent video!. Practically demonstrated the problem with very clear evidence and then addressed it.

Anyone else here to see if the 2024 model 3 still has the same issue? 😂

Dude you’re seriously amazing with the effort and quality of content. Well done!

Loved this video ! They wanted to charge me just over £200 🤣

So fricken fun to watch you problem solve. You’re a fricken rock star. I want so badly for Tesla to connect with your for a collab with a commitment from them that they won’t quit until it’s fixed. You deserve it for all your effort, and we Tesla owners deserve it because it’s a fricken gross pain in the ass. BTW… your video was the first-ever UA-cam video that I’ve watched where I was forced to watch full-length commercials, which normally annoy me to no end, but I literally said out loud, “Dude, you deserve any payment you get from an ad slot.” I surprised myself by saying, “He’ll, bring on another one. You’re a bad ass.” Super impressive deductive thought processing and testing rationale. Be proud, dude. You’re good!

This deserves more attention from tesla. I've been suffering from the bad smell for a very long time. I have a 2023 model y and the car smells like paint after it rains. Should I be replacing that hepa filter?

That's funny, I seriously clicked on your video believing you were referring to the burning electrical emissions/smell I smelled while driving behind a Tesla coming up to the hill from Sacramento to Tahoe in California. It was bad enough to make me believe there was a problem with the car or and technology.

How is the airflow after installing the gasket. I suspect Tesla left it open to get more air that's not being pulled from under the car.

the fact the car needs a carwash mode tells me they know they have a problem and instead of fixing it with better air routing they do this dumb thing to reduce the leaks.. just fix this Tesla

Is there a panic alarm button on that?

open cell foam absorbs water. closed cell foam does not.

Agree with other postings. This is very comprehensive video. Thank you!

Grreat video! What a terrible design, wow!

15:22 can you check is the heat exchanger refrigerant or fluid coil?? Cooling coil is refrigerant but is the heat coil too

This is a good example of how Tesla is not a good car manufacturer. But a good tech company.

This is borderline weaponized autism levels of dedication.

I get your point about rotor rust, but if it was a safety concern I would expect them to already perform your request. This is about your peace of mind, but may have no necessity. I suggest you do an experiment on stopping distance.

I applaud your quality testing. You are making the effort.

You purchased an entire HVAC to reproduce the moisture problem? Now that's some serious investigatory skills!

if you have a big gasket, where will the car pull fresh air from? it will impede fresh air flow

Great information, thank you!

I pretty sure the reason for that gasket or seal not being there is to to geg fresh air into the vents
