FAQQuestions about the 3 manual
Which 3 years does this manual cover?
Every year from 2017 to 2024 — 8 separate manuals, one per model year. Pick your year in the selector; the manual you receive is matched to that exact year, engine and trim.
Is this the OEM Tesla 3 manual or an aftermarket guide?
The OEM version. It carries the procedures, specifications, torque values and wiring diagrams Tesla published for the 3, organized by system — not a condensed aftermarket summary.
Does it include 3 wiring diagrams?
Yes. Full wiring diagrams are part of every 3 manual, alongside repair procedures, specifications and diagnostic information.
Does the manual cover 3 recalls?
127 recalls are on federal record across the 2017–2024 3, listed by year below. The manual carries the manufacturer's diagnostic and repair procedures behind the systems involved; the recall repairs themselves are performed free by Tesla dealers.
Why do some 3 years cost more?
Every 3 year is $49.99.
Is this a subscription?
No. One payment, and the manual is yours to keep — unlike per-vehicle subscriptions that renew every year.
How do I get the manual after purchase?
It is a digital manual — nothing ships. Access details arrive by email right after checkout, and you can use it on any device.
