How the 2017 compares with nearby years
Against the 2024 Model 3: The wiper blade lengths is the same in both manuals.
The 2017 Model 3 belongs to the 1st gen, which began with the 2017 model year ('Highland' refresh in US Jan 2024 (MY2024): new headlights, taillights, wheels); generation dates. Parts often carry over within a generation, but the manual for your exact model year is the one to trust.
What the manual does not print
The 2017 Tesla Model 3 owner's manual does not list bulbs, filters and oil sizes; many lamps on this model are LED assemblies that are replaced as a unit by a dealer.
Buying the parts for a 2017 Model 3
- Wipers: ask for a 26-inch driver blade and a 19-inch passenger blade. The manual's 650 mm is 25.6 inches exactly; blade boxes round to the 25 mm trade step. Check that the new blade's connector matches the arm on the Model 3.
- Battery: the manual prints 12V low-voltage battery, 33 Ah or higher. Match the cold cranking amps on the old label or higher, and keep the terminals on the same sides.
Check it on your car
