    v11 software update SUCKS

    It’s not showing up on the “legacy” X and S. It only shows up for the Y (and I’m assuming the 3) excepts it’s a lot smaller and harder to set the exact limit.

    Rimetrix Laminars are here

    For those that are saying $290 is expensive for some hub caps, people are selling the original Gemini wheel covers for $200-$300 on eBay. I’m not sure how much Tesla officially sell the geminis for, but I think $290 is a fair market price in comparison.

    Model Y on 100% charge not showing the advertised range

    The F150 Lightning's rated 300 miles is supposed to be with 1000lbs of cargo in the truck bed. Without any cargo, people are expecting it can go closer to 400 miles. The reason Ford did this is because they don't want to advertise a higher range and have people be disappointed when it is lower...

    Rimetrix Model Y Aero Cover Availability

    Looks like they released the design and it's available to order. Not sure when they'll actually ship though.

    Elon Musk: Model Y will outsell the Model S, X, and 3 COMBINED... really?

    While parking spaces in Europe can vary across countries and locations like you said, the "standards" that they follow are indeed tighter. Using width as an example, the US uses 2.7m width, UK uses 2.4m, and France uses 2.2m as the "standard". While technically any city/garage can make their...

    Sudden loss of range

    Did you do a software update recently? As part of the latest 2021.12.25 update, Tesla updated their battery range calculation to be more accurate. It could be the case where your original BMS calculations were overly optimistic to begin with, and the new number is more accurate.

    Smart Summon Drove My Model Y Into A Tree - July 2021

    For those asking why didn't he let go of the summon button, there's up to a 1 second delay from release to when the car will stop depending on how fast the car is going. Part of it is the lag time between your phone and the car's computer. The 2nd part is how long it physically takes the...

    Road trip and supercharger stops

    Your screen will literally say that the car is preconditioning right under the nav directions. How long it takes is distance and temperature dependent. Sometimes it’s not even needed because your battery will already be warm enough just from the driving distance.

    Phone Died and 2FA Reset

    Your Tesla rep should be able to add SC miles to a new account. While I’ve never seen them add 30k miles, Tesla center reps have been able to add SC miles as a purchase incentive in the past. It wouldn’t hurt to ask them if they can just add the miles to the new account and then just delete...

    294 miles on 100% charge - LR AWD

    The 12V battery and body control module should have nothing to do with how your BMS is estimating your battery capacity/range. The 298 miles is just an estimate and there are plenty of threads here that show how inaccurate it is. Your 298 might go back up to 305 on your next charge for...

    DANGEROUS MAPPING ERRORS ON CURVY MOUNTAIN ROADS [Correction: Tesla map accurately displays this section of I-8]

    If there are 2 left turn lanes, the Tesla nav only shows the 2 left turn lanes. Unlike other navigation systems, it doesn’t highlight which of the 2 left lanes to take because of an immediate other turn right after.

    Car Recording LONG (49min) Video Clips

    Tesla has 1 hour running buffer that is always recording if dashcam is enabled. Are you sure the 49 minute video is from sentry and not just the dashcam buffer?

    I can’t believe that I rely on 360 camera views this much!

    I believe this has been standard on the Camry for the last 5 years at least. It’s one of the icons on the screen when you bring up the rear view camera.

    Model Y full charge range

    I wouldn’t worry. I’m at 289, so just 2 miles more than you. However, I noticed that on my same work commute, my Wh/mi has been about 10% less than when my battery was at 316. That leads me to believe that no matter what your battery is showing, your actual range doesn’t really change.

    Model Y full charge range

    Not sure it this will make you feel better or worse, but my MY LR AWD shows a 100% charge of 289 miles. It has slowly gone down from 316 when new to 289 now 5000 miles later. It is normal according to Tesla service.
