You guys all rock!! Thanks so so much for everyone that's chimed in... wanting to help!

This!! Thank you so much for sharing that! I've been racking my brain to figure out the discrepancy. While the number didn't go up this time on percentage... it stayed exactly where it was literally toggling between 19-20%. I've attached pics that show it with both percentages. If you do...

I noticed it has just touched 19% when I went to get out of the car after posting the 20% pic earlier. So far it's staying on 19%. I'm probably checking too often for it to sleep. So I'm going to leave it be until midnight or so and check again, as I'm plugging it in.

That's what I would think as well. However, it's been consistently showing 2-3-4% more after settling though... even with the temperature decreasing. I was also seeing a solid 73kwh in capacity prior to the last update. I'm having a really hard time believing I've lost 3kwh of capacity in a...

Let's use this example in the attached pic. I just got home now. Forget about miles. Let's use capacity. 265x53/.20= 70.225 KWH of capacity. I won't plug it in, and I'll let it sit. When I come back out in an hour... I'm confident there will be more capacity available. Instead for the BMS...

I mean it's fairly safe to say the BMS is already very conservative in its estimation because it doesn't want to leave us stranded. So, if it sees it's been too conservative... I.E. showing 141 miles worth of energy available... when there was actually 150 miles worth of energy available. It...

You're still not getting where I'm coming from. You're example of 8oz would work.... iffff our capacity wasn't always decreasing. 4 oz was 50% on day one. But 50% is no longer 4 oz at 50,000 miles. Again, this has to make sense. The BMS estimates there is 50% SOC based on its idea that 282...

Awesome discussion! Thanks so much for being willing to bounce ideas back and forth. I hear what you're saying, and in theory... it should be what youre describing. Thing is, I'm super OCD on the miles thing. I can assure you that once the BMS decides for example... 282 is full charge. 50...

I think you're too busy trying to shut me down to actually open your mind and think into what I'm saying. I never plugged in the car. When I arrived home it showed 50% and 141 miles. Without any changes or the car being plugged in. The SOC changed to 54%. The BMS originally estimated there...

10/4 on that! I just wish I knew what the actual degradation is. If it's 150 miles at 50% it's minimal... 5% +/-. If it's genuinely 141 miles @ 50% SOC 282/315 is closer to 10%. 5-10 percent fine for now... but what happens when it's showing 15-30 percent degradation in its calculations...

I should add that this is without being plugged in. I just gave the battery time to settle after returning home.

My 22 M3P showed 50% SOC and only 141 miles. 30 mins later it shows miles at 150... but instead to stay at 50% SOC, BMS adjusts to 54% Why can't the algorithm just understand there is more energy/capacity available at 50% than it has guestimated?

Can a moderator delete this thread? Just realized caps lock was on. It's also written as if it's actually happening. All I wanted to do was mention the idea, not have it showing as if it's some sort of click bait non sense.

Hey Guys/Gals! I just saw an article that Tesla is again offering to allow those with lifetime supercharging the option of transferring it to another new Tesla. Since there are tons of us who purchased and supported Tesla in late 2022 and lost tons of our vehicles value in just a few months...

This is an outstanding question!! I honestly don't know... 🤔. Hopefully someone who knows the answer can chime in to help!! I know someone mentioned using the off peak settings a little further above. I haven't done it that way just to be sure the care does deep sleep. In meantime I'll do...

From just a brief scan. OP there is not charging daily... using their example, they're only charging every 4 days. That's a much longer time for the car to be unplugged than 3 hours. I believe they're also mentioning leaving it at 95% state of charge occasionally, for a certain period of time...

I'm with you on the set it to percentage and forget it concept! The way you explained via the iPhone SOC is outstanding as well!!! Life is waaay to short...for sure! I think what I should have said in those 100 paragraphs above, was for anyone who has found themselves in a similar situation...

Pictures are worth a thousand words they say. So here is my energy calculations today. Months ago when I first posted here in the forums... I was at 72kwh and dropping. 70kwh +/- was the low. Seeing 73kwh months later, after adding another 10k miles of driving... and knowing it's climbing is...

Def have ZERO desire to start a debate here like in the thread you linked sir or ma'am. This is to help anyone who is in a similar situation to mine. I'm hoping to save them countless wasted hours of research. If it doesn't help you, or you're not interested in it... it's all good. But...

Hi Everyone! I myself am guilty of the old battery degradation panic attack! Please don't worry, if you're suffering from something similar... I have a super simple and easy fix for you!! I'm calling it a slightly enhance version of what you've probably already read... but with a modified...

I did the complete tear down of the car prior to going to the appointment. When I got there, I let them know it was done... and I was more than happy to unplug the 3 connectors, remove the 10mm bolt that holds it in place, and redownload software. They still wanted to do the actual part...

Car is now working again!! Was definitely the charge port ECU.

Tesla confirmed it's the charge port ECU earlier today. They're not wanting to do the repair via mobile service though... as others have been able to have done? They also said to call into parts department tomorrow to see if one is available. Do different service centers have different...

I do need to go back to supercharger juuuust to see if the update could have somehow corrected it .. but it's an 80 mile round trip that I made twice yesterday. Thinking that test will wait until tomorrow... maaaybe 🤔

Here is a photo from the other thread of the part that was replaced. Interestingly.. they were unable to charge off AC... and able to charge at Supercharger it states in the service notes. My car does the exact opposite. It will charge without issue on gen 3 or destination... but no go on...

Did the 2023.38.6 update last night. Now all alerts are cleared.. with the exception of a single CP_a066 alert. "charging equipment not ready". Checking in the forums it looks like others have had this issue.. and it's the charge port ECU that has been replaced and corrected the issue! Will...

This is excellent! Thanks so much for the explanation! I was leaning towards the charge port as it is what's seen the most "physical" wear and tear. I've seen both pieces sitting there just inside of the fabric cover that's located directly behind the charge port itself. The white plastic...

Yes sir!! That's absolutely right the contactors are open! But again, in my limited knowledge... I would have to start at step one, before I go to step six(just for an example). First, we need that pilot signal. Once we have that, all else should fall into place. If not, then... let's move on...

I would say at this point... even with my limited knowledge of the technical workings of EV's I'm feeling very confident it's the Charge port itself that is the core issue. Would a loose connection at the pilot pin arc out... and possibly burn up contacts in charge port ECU? That I'm not sure...

I hear you. I didn't say I make sense. I stated I do everything myself, and if I don't know how to do it... I figure out a way. Nothing I do is done halfway or lackluster or whatever it is you might be thinking. I'm not a contractor, but I learned how to install a septic system myself for...

Still nothing from Tesla. I noticed today that my low voltage battery stays around 78-79%... is this by design? Anyone else with a lithium LV battery seeing the same. You can find it in service mode under LV battery.

Wanted to post an update today if what Tesla "technical team" found out. It's crickets though... Not a word all day out of them.

I found a new code this evening. PCS_a023. When I looked it up I found two different posts. One stated it's a known software issue with latest update... but I think that was a model Y. I also found another post that stated the chart port ecu was replaced... and a third thread that mentioned...

This coincides with another post I found that stated the charge port ecu was replaced! Mentions a bad batch being out in early 2022. My car is from September of 22.

I'm actually having this issue with my model 3. It gives a single blue light when connecting to the supercharger. Then the display says ready to charge. After a minute it shows unable to charge... no power at station. Currently awaiting to hear from Tesla "technical team" tomorrow. If anyone...

Thanks so much to all of you for wanting to help!!! It's my understanding if I pay for the diagnostics subscription... I'd be able to plug in an Ethernet cable to a laptop.. and it will run a check and show me the repair code. I could then use that repair code to look up how to repair it via...

Yes sir! I'm on that same page. Im confident I can subscribe to diagnostics for a day for the $165 they charge... plug in an Ethernet cable... and get the repair code. At that point, I may be able to see what's wrong... but Tesla will only warranty the parts, if a certified tech does the...

Thanks again for your reply and help! I was just in the service manual. Which mentioned the service mode, and explained how to enter it. I checked and found 2 codes. Photos attached.

I'm used to fixing everything myself. So it's killing me to have to take it to the repair center and "trust" whatever technician gets to work on it. I have 30 years experience in my field. Thinking of the new guy being on his second week, tearing up my car... gives me all kinds of 🤢🤮 vibes. So...

Thank you guys for chiming in to help! Definitely not an expired card issue! I did, actually try changing the method of payment that night juuuust in case. But it made no difference. When I plug the supercharger in.. there is one blue light at the charge port. That light goes out a moment...

Hi guys/gals! I have a 22 model 3 performance with 37,000 miles. 85% charged at home via gen 3 wall charger. Went to help a friend late night .. 2 nights ago. Needed to use supercharger to make it home. Plugged in, took dog for a pee. Came back. Car wasn't charging. Checked again...

Thanks so so much again for all the input fellas!! You guys are awesome!! I LOVE the forums for this!! Being able to bounce different ideas around, and read through different thought processes... it's so much better than just overthinking it all in my own tiny little brain!!! 🙃 Today, I was...

10/4 on that! Thanks so much again for jumping in to help fellas! Really do appreciate you guys!

Thank you sir! I read in another one of the posts your one the members who really knows these cars. I'm struggling with my 21 M3P having 76-77kwh available at same mileage, and somehow this 22 is only showing just shy over 73kwh. I've had this sickening feeling that there is a bad module...

Is 22mv imbalance acceptable during use? 75% SOC... idle.. ac on manual level 1.

Your stats are amazing man! Still showing 310 miles on a 2018 with 50k miles is outstanding!!! I'm only seeing 287 with half the mileage, and a car that's not even a year old yet! Sure hope mine plateaus sooner than later!

I saw another post you made about having extremely low degradation after 4 years and 50k miles!! Hats off to you on that sir!!! You're right, usually it's around 6mv... I think I had the climate control running in that pic, so it was jumping between 6-8mv. Honestly, I'm just hating that my...

I'm at 259 miles 90% SOC. 22 M3P w/26000 miles and a dozen or so supercharges. All other charging done at home via wall connector. Just tried the single digit let it sit 3 hours, then charge to 100%. I didn't want to wake the car, and am thinking I took it off charge before it could balance the...
