With the acoustic foam lined tires, these sealants won't work. The pad is dense and prevents the sealant from reaching and sealing the hole. I wonder why Tesla sell these kits.
@@MonsterGadgetsthanks. I was actually able to locate it in the trunk, on the left side. I thought it would be in the arm rest but it wasnt. I have a 2023 Y long range, not sure if it changed from previous model years
i rodered two of the airpump and the slime. tesla cancel my order.but sent me the slime i ordered. they say the pump is discontinue. Just had the two puncture. off 130 / 969 in austin, tx. called tesla road service 40 minutes later flatbed arrived. 50 miles is covered for the tows.
Yes it seems Tesla has discontinued it. I’m not sure why but one the techs told me they will be bringing it back soon. Was your tire repaired or did it need to be replaced?
This may seem an obvious question - but why have a "cigarette lighter" plug for this device when the Model 3 does not have a cigarette lighter. Wouldn't it be more prudent to use some other type of plug device either a USB port or a regular outlet plug?
@@hypertan14 No cigarette lighter, but there is a 12v power outlet that resembles an old cigarette lighter port. The term is just misused by everybody.
Hey Emran, I just wanted to let you know that I’m using you as my referral for my Tesla. I watched your video when I ordered my Model 3 performance and hopefully will take delivery sometime in June. Thank you for great tips
I ordered one last week from griots garage . Should get it Monday. Tried to order a Tesla two week ago and it wouldn't go through. Same price as Tesla.
You do not have to replace the sensor unless something is wrong with it. The average life of a sensor is normally around 8 years but most last much longer than that. This is what I was told from a tire shop when one of the sensors went bad on my truck that’s about 14 years old. I paid $70 to replace it. I would assume it would be about that much +/- $10-15 for any other car as well.
Thank you! Yes I agree but wanted to stick to the Tesla brand for the best specifications (if that even matters). I like the fact that it’s one unit with sealant and compressor.

I’ve had my M3P for 2mth and can’t believe I haven’t thought about getting that tire repair kit🤦♂️ Tyvm for the video!!
My pleasure!! I think it’s one of those things that’s we don’t think about cause we are sooooo excited about our cars haha!
Don't forget PPF or your really gonna regret it when you start getting paint chips
@@jasons7044 I got it done 3days after taking ownership👍
Outrageous that Tesla doesn’t provide Run Flat Tires
Where do you connect it to turn it on? Where is the "cigarette lighter" you're referring?
In the arm rest. When you open it, it’s kinda hidden but it’s towards the left side (driver side) on top.

I like the spare tire kit that Frugal Tesla Guy reviewed. Seems like the way to go for me.
You got a link for it? I haven’t seen that. What do you like more about that one? I assume it’s a aftermarket one?
Doesn't using this product not render tire scrap even if repairable beforehand, my model 3 performance collection day 18/06.
does the sealant from the Tesla kit (or other brand in spray can) work if the tires have the acoustic foam?
This item is no longer on the Tesla store. FYI.

Hi. It does have a cigarette lighter in the arm rest. It’s a bit hidden but it’s there.
I am going to order it but I need to know for sure if there is a cigarette lighter in the car . I a,m getting my model 3 in August

Hi Amir! Thank you and congrats!! What color combo did you get? I’m curious
It's back down to $70
It was a great video
Thank you!
How would valet service work with the Tesla? Plz make quick video. 🙏🏼
That is actually coming up real soon! It’s on my list! Stay tuned :)
Great video and thank you for posting! What is the window tint % around your car? Thanks.
Thank you! It’s 5% for all the windows, back, and top. The windshield is 35%.
@@MonsterGadgets Thanks!
I ordered one last week from griots garage . Should get it Monday. Tried to order a Tesla two week ago and it wouldn't go through. Same price as Tesla.
Same kit? Or different?
Can the sealant work without the air pump? Ty for posting
My pleasure! I don’t think so.
Thank you for your video. The link to order the tire repair kit no longer connects to the product on the Tesla website.
My pleasure. I apologize but Tesla recently pulled this product from their site. I was told it will be back on their soon.
No user guide in 2022. What is the *red push button* ( on the side, near the base ) used for?
To disengage the sealant canister
@@LeeKenshin7 👍‼
Where inside the tesla is the cigarette lighter plug?
It’s in the arm rest. Kinda hidden.
@@MonsterGadgets it's good that it's hidden
The reason for the price increase, supply and demand, higher parts costs, higher margins, more revenue..
Makes sense!
U have to replace the tire sensor ? How much is that to replace does anyone know ?

@@MonsterGadgets u said in the video u have to replace the tire sensor after using the sealant ?
Yes that’s the recommendation from Tesla just as for replacing the tire.
@@MonsterGadgets then how much is it to replace the sensor🥴
It should be about $60-80
Would you be able to direct us to something similar to this tire pump that’s not via Tesla? Since they don’t sell it anymore.
I have one for sale
Nice, but you can put together your own kit for much cheaper
Thank you! Yes I agree but wanted to stick to the Tesla brand for the best specifications (if that even matters). I like the fact that it’s one unit with sealant and compressor.
@@MonsterGadgets agree
You didn't go on a road trip because you were afraid of getting a flat.
Nuf said
🤷🏽♂️
Is Tesla repair kit not available anymore?
Unfortunately it’s not. I’m not sure why they recently pulled it from the site.
There’s no cigarette lighter but a hidden outlet.
Add a spare tire like a grown-up. Elons skimping ideas are ridiculous.
Which Tesla model has a spare tire? None.
The more reason to have this type of repair kit! :)
Where'd u get ur wheels? I can't find those on their website.
It’s only on the performance model. Click on that and you will see :)
@@MonsterGadgets gotcha! thank you Sir!
My pleasure! Let me know if you have any other questions
Only heard talk, talk and talk without telling how to use the repair kit!!
Didn’t have a flat tire to demonstrate on but I think you missed the point of the video
