    Dielectric coolant in model S to save LDU

    My thinking here is it does not matter if this mixes with the electronics because its non conductive. It would be like a mineral oil pc. Call me crazy but I've been running it with no problems so far.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    I’m on the younger side if you can’t tell. Excuse my spirited lingo.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    If the car does pass both the charging and safety inspection it will not be free anymore according to wk057. I only know of one case where free charging was re-enabled as free and as he stated that it was a fluke by tesla.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    Many people do this like me. Passing an HV cert does not mean this will turn charging back on. It means tesla will do work on it related to the HV battery. Bringing any branded/rebuilt title vehicle in for HV inspection is a surefire way to get charging turned off even if it is enabled at the...

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    I wanted to ask a question but the audience I reached is not very educated. Instead of helping or not commenting most of you here besides @NV Ray are not helping at all. @DerbyDave has clearly not read tesla updated salvage policy before posting. @tldickerson has no clue what he is talking about...

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    There's a method after rooting your car to disable Hermes proxy and Odin engine. If you disable there 2 things tesla can no longer make unauthorized changes to your car.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    I’ve done this a few hundred times I don’t think it’s getting any unsafer. Besides all the salvage haters are acting like that battery doesn’t have multiple bms”s that monitor individual cell voltage and temp at all given times. If there any imbalance at all the car would simply not charge as...

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    Wrong, only few v3 superchargers can disable your can from fast charge. These are known as “online stations”.The car is the one doing the communications to all of tesla and that’s why you can enable charging via root and disconnect you cars sim an be able to charge again.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    Yes there's many threads of people complaining about it but no solution on how to take your car off tesla's network short of unplugging the antenna's. No information on how to disables Hermes or Odin engine at ALL on here. I just want to keep teleforce off of my car and others should as well.

    Will tesla eventually disable my charging?

    I have been daily driving a salvage model s for a little over a year now. Crash happed about 2 years ago. My car still supercharges fine. I have not ever gone to a tesla service center yet but my phone app is connected to my car. I'm concerned for my free charging and I want it to stay free. Is...

    Upgrading early model s

    toolbox 2 needs a few thing before it can properly work. First you need to be on V11.0 software or lower and second you have to have the ability to access factory mode. I have no clue how to access factory mode yet. The reasoning for this is it unlocks the cars diag port. One idea i had is to...

    Dielectric coolant in model S to save LDU

    The coolant is about 80% as efficient as the g48 used in the cars as standard for specific heat, however it can dissipate heat at a greater rate then the coolant used. Unplugged performance use this coolant in their track built plaid if that says anything about it. I'm surprised its not a more...

    Dielectric coolant in model S to save LDU

    I'm aware the the LDU's are plagued with coolant leakage issues. It seems its not a matter of IF they will fail but WHEN they will fail. I have read over many modification threads on how to stop the leaking and corrosion but what if the G48 coolant was replaced with dielectric coolant...

    Model s 70 compared to 75 0-60

    Thanks for the info. Do you know what exactly changed for that lower 0-60 on the rwd75's. Was it a drive unit revision? If so I'm sure tesla has replaced many of those new revision drive unit in older cars. If the battery has a high enough output ,is it just firmware limiting the DU?

    Model s 70 compared to 75 0-60

    I've been looking around at model s 0-60 times ,specifically the jump from the 70kwh RWD battery cars to the 75kwh RWD battery cars. The drivetrains are identical with a large rear drive unit but the 0-60 times are 1.3 seconds apart. Why is this? Are 2 more modules active in the 75kwh for more...
