    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    If the OE suspension turns out to be really good, I could see one solution being to design drop spindles that lower the suspension/steering mounting points with respect the the rest of the spindle to allow a lower ride height without having to change the shocks and springs. This would likely...

    I was only here for the page count, so if that goes away, I have no more interest. 😂

    glass roofs have to go bye bye.

    But it's not dangerous in other states...😉

    I would have kidnapped him and interrogated him. Nah just kidding. Just getting us closer to 200...😂

    The quest for wider wheels and tires, 295, 305 and beyond...

    Every time I stress about rubbing on something, one of you post up a configuration that has the tire so close to the upright. I'm currently on 275/30R20 S007s. I purchased a set of Potenza Sports of the same size and they appear wider. While rotating my current tires, I set them down side by...

    Reset SOC button in Service menu?

    So we are certain it's the BMS button? I just couldn't find anything on Google to even suggest this so I didn't associate the two. On a side note, sound like there are a lot of brave souls that just like to push buttons without knowing what it does....🤣

    Reset SOC button in Service menu?

    I was saying why bury the one time charge option. That seems benign so I don't think that's the function of this button.

    Reset SOC button in Service menu?

    I did run into some reference to BMS calibration or reset when searching this. Perhaps it's the same thing? I didn't see an option for BMS calibration but I want really looking for it when I was in the service menu. Thanks for the input. Perhaps someone will figure this out at some point...

    Reset SOC button in Service menu?

    That doesn't make sense to me. Why would they bury such an option in the service menu? And the label on this button doesn't match what you describe.

    Reset SOC button in Service menu?

    Was poking around on the service menu tonight. Anyone know what this is for? I couldn't find any reference to it anywhere. I didn't dare press it...

    No need to be a drama queen. Just post up a citation that actually agrees with what you're saying. I've already posted 2 to support my argument. There's plenty more. No need to waste your breath. Plenty of smart people have already studied this topic extensively.

    Not trying to detail this thread so I'll just say this. The equation separates the components of friction, but in practice, they are combined. Much like rotational and translational motion of a wheel. This isn't a situation like ignoring relativistic physics and non-relativistic velocities...I...

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    I literally posted an article that describes the nonlinear relationship between the amount of grip and weight on tires. It's actually not complicated than that as slip speed (angle) and temperature are additional variables and these vary by tire. See page 11...
