    Battery Degradation Scientifically Explained

    Great thread and sub'd for future updates. We've been doing 90% charges when we charge (usually every other day) and we're dropping that to 75% daily and charging more frequently.

    Vendor MPP Model 3 Build Thread

    Some cool looking and functional aero bits I hope.

    Vendor MPP Model 3 Build Thread

    Hopefully MPP is working on some camber plates similar to these found on the new Ford Performance FP350S race car. :D

    A gearhead buys a Telsa

    Wow, sure glad that I'm wrong you have all the answers. :rolleyes: The reality is what you're doing isn't going to make any difference. Why? Because using fossil fuels is part of the problem but not the main problem. Population growth is the main problem. Everything you do is being offset...

    Do you produce enough energy to cover the energy used in the production of your food, clothes, household belongings, the server at the restaurant that drove to work to wait on you, etc, etc? I'm not trying to be difficult but the problem is way beyond what you do.

    A gearhead buys a Telsa

    I don’t have the numbers but I suspect the % of fires per 1,000 cars is similar. The issue in the video is they can’t put the fire out on the Tesla.

    Exactly. All we have to worry about is our cars catching on fire and then trying to have the local FD put it out. ;)

    A gearhead buys a Telsa

    Save the Cheerleader save the World. So anyone that buys an ICE today just doesn't get it? I wish it was that simple. Could there possibly be other reasons why people buy ICE cars? I'd like to know how I can run my Tesla with "no fuel costs"? I'm not in the Bay Area but last I checked PG&E...

    Stock breakpads, anyone had to replace yet?

    I should have a solution for this next week. A lot of people are at PRI in Indy this week so my research is going a bit slow.

    Stock breakpads, anyone had to replace yet?

    Check out Safe Jacks for lifting your Tesla. I have a set for my other car and they work well. Both of my cars use the same pads. Log onto their website and put them in your cart but don't buy them. The next day you'll get an email for a 10% discount. ;) The RennStand by Safe Jack

    Stock breakpads, anyone had to replace yet?

    If you're tracking your car I hope you're checking and measuring your brake pads before each event. I haven't measured the pads on my M3 but they are typically around 10mm thick when new. If you're below 3mm you should be looking at replacing them. I recommend this tool for an easy way to...

    T Sportline Carbon Fiber Dash Panel

    That's not good. Did you test fit it before removing the adhesive backing? Mine fit perfectly once I removed those two plastic ends. Dropped right on and there is no wood showing anywhere.

    T Sportline Carbon Fiber Dash Panel

    Good luck with your install. Nothing on the console. It's my wife's car and I may still add clear wrap to the console. Our 2013 Ford Fusion Ti has a very similar high gloss black plastic console and while it gets dirty easily it hasn't gotten scratched up over the almost 6 years we've owned it.

    T Sportline Carbon Fiber Dash Panel

    Was it you I just talked to on the phone? An install video would be helpful and since you don't have one we can use the one below. After talking to TSportline on the phone I determined you need to remove the two hard end pieces. The video below shows you how to remove them. It was...
