Check out the video from engineering explained to explain why the smaller rims are better. Really informative and uses math.

my plastic skidplate cracked when i lived in Winnipeg, so i ordered the one from Mountain Pass Performance here. no issues or worries since. installed myself using a pair of car ramps and a socket set.

No idea, but this is the Canadian part of the forum, no tax credits found here.

no one can steal your wheels if they can't get a jack under the car!

I would imagine the same way they get here from USA...rail and tractor-trailers.

it wouldn't be LFP. The LR models from China use LG Chem brand batteries vs the Panasonic used in Fremont. It is NMCA battery. article from 2021

Tesla has already installed a few locations with the Magic dock in the USA. I imagine soon here in Canada too after the annoucement that they're opening a stretch of the Superchargers to all EVs from Sudbury to Ottawa. The NACS plug locks itself to the magic dock/CCS adapter, which then would...

You are correct. i thought the wording was along the lines of proprietary/universal connectors. Source Edit: maybe the Magic Dock would count towards the CCS connector?

I think this should help Tesla get funding in both countries for charging locations since it’ll no longer be a proprietary connector

oh, never noticed. i just have an SR+ so i peak at 170kW. driving this past week from Ontario to NB and back was definitely frustrating at the Riviere du Loup charger. its a v2 but seemed to have 74kW shared between adjacent stalls. dropped to 35ish when someone else pulled next to me and back...

a v2 shares 150kW between A and B stalls, so 1A and 1B. so if you and someone else pull up nice and warm already and plug in on the same shared load, you'll still only see a max of 74kW. with a v3 charger, it not only doesn't share load, but also has a higher peak charge of 250kW.

use an ice scraper? i turn off my folding mirrors in the winter

You can also look on used car websites and local dealers to see who has some available and test drive it.

Sorry you had such a rough time with it, but glad you got it. I have a model 3 and the only tough issue I had was getting the old plugs out due to sand and ice (I waited until the temp warmed up to the single negative digits). Used hot water in a spray bottle. Just ordered new PPF strips though...

No news. its not advertised, but the two local service techs work out of a space near Lagimodiere/Dugald beside the Enns Brothers building. it has a hoist and they're able to do almost all service except for HV battery replacement i believe.

on my Model 3 i had a hard time getting the plugs out since it was winter and they were gunked up with snow/ice and sand. used a spray bottle with hot water to melt the ice and rinse the sand off. no issues getting them in though.

Manitoba, like most provinces, have a safety inspection for vehicles being imported into the province. Things they look for are brakes, lights functioning, holes in the body, etc. They wouldn’t be looking whether it takes regular or supreme fuel, just like they wouldn’t be checking for charging...

Not much difference if any that I’m aware of. Daytime running lights are mandatory here, not sure about the states.

Front use existing push pin locations and the hardware comes with longer versions. Rear use two push pin and one screw that screws into the plastic.

I originally bought the hard plastic ones from rpmtesla, but they cracked when I was knocking snow and ice from them. Currently have a set from evmudflaps which are made in Quebec where they get a lot of snow. They’re flexible, so snow doesn’t collect as much and it makes it easier to knock the...

I have option 1, except it’s a NEMA 6-50

the Model Y never qualified for the $5K off, not even when they sold the Y Standard range. the only Tesla that ever qualified was the Model 3 SR and SR+, but they haven't since the price changes in Nov 2021.

Possibly? If the cost is below 70k. Doesn’t hurt to ask your SA

no, this takes affect after 25 April 2022. but yes you are over the threshold of the 65k limit, but also there isn't a Model 3 currently below the 55k threshold that allows the 65k to be considered. It used to be 45k with a top end of 55k, which i managed to use with my SR+ back in Sept.

I looked up their channel and didn’t see anything regarding brake cleaning

I’m in Manitoba, but I think what you’re looking for is an RST refund (retail sales tax). I had to pick up and buy my Tesla from Saskatoon where they didn’t charge me the PST portion, only the GST. When I registered it in Manitoba a couple days later, I had to pay the PST portion. Then I applied...

Not on screen, but the sticker on the inside of the drivers door or door sill. Also has tire pressure and vehicle weight

When was yours made? Think it was around March 2021 they started including the hardware, but didn’t make it available to buy until November. Any vehicles delivered after Nov 1 got theirs included for free. My September build I had to pay 400 to unlock the heated steering wheel and back seats.

the federal one you don't need to return.

From Tesla website: Incentives for Model 3 Standard Range, Model 3 Standard Range Plus and Model 3 RWD orders placed prior to the November 23, 2021 price change. Applies to deliveries of model years 2021 & 2022 only. Subject to change by government at any time. Canada Federal Up to...

There are a handful, but tezlab and notateslaapp come to mind. I can’t say what is good or not since I’ve only seen some YouTubers use them

Fremont built cars only use Panasonic. as far as confirming the battery size, i think you need to use one of those apps that give you more data from your car.

I could be wrong, but the Chinese long range are using LG batteries, while NA built use Panasonic.

i think he's more worried about traction when backing up or pulling boat out of the water. An AWD like the LR would be nice for sure, but the biggest issue is no two ramps are the same, like the incline angle, water depth, ramp material (concrete or gravel).

He’s joking that Alberta is going to separate because of Jason Kenny, AB’s Premier.

Worst case about 50% loss in -30C.

FastCo and Replika are made in Quebec from what I remember. I bought Replika R241 but was also strongly considering FastCo FC04 for the lighter weight.

no, that's not the issue. what people are trying to tell you and gave you examples already is that you can get a few thousand more by selling to someone else. Soul Surfer in his case said he got 12.5k more using autotrader.ca than what Tesla offered. Why leave money on the table that could be...

The issue is that there isn’t much of an air cushion between the roads and the rim. Engineering explained YouTube channel has an M3P and blew the tires on one side and bent the rims going over a pothole. He did an video explaining how not only are aftermarket 18” (to fit over the brake calliper)...

Kingston just opened a second supercharger just across the street that is v3.

Temperature and state of charge are the biggest impacts to charging speed. The fuller it is, the slower it charges.

Nope, see my posts above. I’m dealing with-28 temps this morning and use a heat gun and a microfibre cloth to defrost the windshield on the inside. My appointment isn’t until March 11, but I’d rather do what I’m doing than go back to a rental SUV

FMVSS 103, S4.2, by incorporation, requires 80% minimum defrost of critical area C at 20 minutes.

i installed software .7 around 14 Jan i think. they replaced the compressor/supermanifold and lines between them on 1 Feb. wouldn't think there was still contamination if they had to replace the parts.

that explains a lot and thank you for finding that. i don't understand though that my heat failed again after the hardware was replaced and i've been on .7 since before the hardware swap.

part of me wants to believe that, but i'm torn. I've always had my climate set to auto at 19C. lost heat originally around 7 Jan in -25C temps with software 2021.44.30.?? Got the .6 and .7 updates between then and the service appt. Service appt scheduled for 21 Jan. Got car back 11 days later on...

apparently its because they no longer have any NCA battery (therefore SR+) models and only the LFP battery type, so they changed the wording to RWD instead of SR+. source: Did you receive an email from Tesla saying your Model 3 order was modified? Here's why

Error came back today and won’t go away. Tried soft reboot as well as shutting down for 3 minutes. No heat and it’s only -9C. Hasn’t been a week since I got it back for this same error. Still on software 2021.44.30.7

mine did when i had a hockey stick placed alongside there and it accidentally pressed the button.
