The invoice typically shows the new bolt. I replaced mine. I think they’re more concerned about the effectiveness of the factory thread locker than the stretch (these aren’t torque to yield bolts) But realistically it’s not working itself loose regardless.

Seems to be hit or miss based on the experiences here. Doesn’t hurt to ask

With the other cars that happened to this year (MSLR being a notable example), a few slipped through the cracks, I guess before the stores got the memo on the stop sale.

Officially you should disconnect power. And I did when I replaced my wheel for the mechanical horn wheel. As far as I’m aware, virtually all manufacturers recommend disconnecting power when removing / installing airbags. That said I’ve yet to see a a single instance of an accidentally...

Other than 0-60, an srt hellcat charger should be faster. But you’re paying Plaid money at that point, and the Plaid is much faster all around.

Same reason a lot of Tesla buyers, myself included, prefer the Tesla buying experience to traditional car dealers. Upsells are annoying.

Yes.

Yeah I disabled it after it opened up in a low parking garage while I was unplugging myself from a level 2 charger. Opened up right into the concrete roof. No damage, but still.

I get ~2.7 when going frame by frame.

I dunno, looking at it side by side with the old M3P, it seems to pull considerably harder in that 60-95 range

My guess would be it’s more about eliminating the dgpu

That certainly looks like better top end pull

Making purchase decisions based on your values is not an inherently bad thing. Your approach is not inherently more rational.

Not really sure why Tesla should get a pass, but not the buyer.

Sure. And the way you do things is how every single person in America does things and is the only valid way to do things. Got it.

People do it all the time. I imagine all the people here crying about liberal wet dreams would too if the CEO was very vocal about the opposite social views.

Honestly I’m not even sure his work was the main contributor to Tesla’s profit at that time. Covid was probably the main factor.

Problem is they really don't. Those of us who have experienced Tesla know they can really cut corners. But most people who don't hang out on forums like this wouldn't realize that the cybertruck was half-assed as much as it was. Especially since it was released in a worse state than pretty much...

Most of those companies don't have CEOs that fire entire departments after a ketamine fueled bender. While also having a huge percentage of its leadership jumping ship. Tesla is failing. Hopefully the shareholders have a come to jesus moment, deny Elon the $56b and he ****s off to go do...

Looks like the non matrix lights

I recommend thinking about it a little more. The range difference comes down to the wheels/tires. The tax credit - if you qualify, would more than pay for a set of aftermarket 18" wheels with efficient tires and likely get you better range since the M3P actually has a larger battery.

Reasonable people generally do hate bigots.

I've never been a fan of burning fuel indoors. But I did buy a cheap 6kW heater on Amazon and wired it up to a 6-50 plug which I use on the rare occasion I need to heat up the garage.

BMW’s quoted weights tend to include fluids and driver

Yeah I used mine like a couple times mostly out of curiosity. Just not often that I’m stopped somewhere long enough that I’d want to load up steam to pass the time. Also never made sense to me to keep it as an S/X exclusive feature. Should have been at least optional on the 3/Y.

The ground wire is clearly green?

With how these things depreciate I have my doubts

They’re nice to have if you ever spend time in the garage, but if you don’t I don’t really see the point

If multiple chargers are reporting a bad ground, there’s probably a bad ground. If it’s fine at the outlet end, then I would wonder about the service panel end.

I would guess they're removing the dgpu. I bet AMD is phasing out that particular GPU (Navi 23 iirc), and Tesla doesn't feel like updating to a newer equivalent. Pretty expensive piece of hardware for something very few people actually use.

Yeah I just chrcked mine. A bit higher than what I remember, but probably 30-40 if I exclude the EVs. And can cut that down in a power outage scenario where I’m trying to keep usage down.

USB to Ethernet is fine. Can do it with either mac or windows, but if you’re not technically inclined windows is easier. Toolbox subscription is generally cheaper than paying someone.

It’s going to end up being something dumb like he didn’t have it in insane mode

I don't know who you are or why you're quoting a post that was in response to someone else (who did end up disclosing his financial conflict of interest)

Being a shareholder is a conflict of interest. You can’t have an unbiased opinion.

We're talking like a 600lb difference. At those speeds, drag is a far bigger factor than that weight difference. So the horsepower requirements tend to be pretty similar.

Funny how insecure cybertruck owners are. Have to create their own echo chamber to make themselves feel better

What do you know, turns out the cybertruck is right at home at the playground.

The sheer insanity of posts like this is always fascinating. Enjoy your polished turd

So you don't own a single share? Somehow I don't believe you. This is "Tesla Motors Club". Not "Tesla Fanboys Club". I can and will criticize the company and its leadership when they do stupid things. Which is nearly everything they do these days.

It's relevant because people are claiming it can't be ugly because the thing is selling well. In reality it's selling horribly and the documentation released with regards to the recall proves that. The recall also proves it's terribly engineered. So it's ugly *and* it's a shitty truck.

Are you saying you have no financial conflict of interests with regards to the success of Tesla?

60-130 correlates pretty closely with horsepower. I'd be surprised if the M3P matches the MSLR with a ~200hp deficit.

Before we went hardwired we used a Hubbel 6-50 for years without issues. This was with a gen 1 UMC (40A) and then briefly a wall connector with a 6-50 pigtail set to 40A.

You can use a bigger subpanel as long as the breaker feeding the subpanel is appropriately sized. I'm using a 100A subpanel with a 65A feed servicing two tesla chargers.

The only slight evidence I’ve found so far are a couple rgb lighting test routines in toolbox. I don’t recall them being present a couple weeks ago, but could be wrong. And I don’t think it’s just a carryover from the model 3 / cyber truck since it referenced the center console lights that those...

While it won’t make a big difference, the current limit in power sharing mode lets you set it down to the amp. So if you set each wall connector to 48A and then the network limit to 44A, you’ll get a 44A charge limit which is technically allowed with 6/3 romex.

You need the global inner tail lamps and the stuff mentioned here: Tail Light Retrofit- AMBER turn signal

Do you have a link to the stl?

There is essentially zero correlation between brake feel and brake performance.
