    Powerwall Software 1.46

    Ok looked today and the option showed up below Storm Watch on the app - no new S/W on PW, cars or app

    Powerwall Software 1.46

    Likewise I have an M3 an MX and the right Powerwall S/W (V1.46) but I do not see the setting below storm watch

    Touch screen control for wipers is dangerous

    Gotta say I disagree with the dangerous comments. I have lived fairly recently in Dallas, New York and California (Bay Area and Tahoe) so have lived through all conditions. The auto wipers were marginal before, but dangerous not for me. I can change the speeds without looking - also the stalk...

    HW3 upgrade waiting room: All FSD Tesla’s

    In the last month I upgraded an MX and an M3 to HW3 - one at Fremont SC and one at Reno SC. I had some issues to get addressed and added upgrade to HW3 in both app based service appointment requests and they were part of the service. I had already paid for FSD on both and on the M3 at Fremont...

    Appt for HW 2.5 to 3.0 Retro tomorrow. Should I?

    Just got the HW3 done on our Model 3 yesterday (MX done a month ago) - seems smoother and the full FSD preview is cool but you can still see the limits of the S/W for full FSD. One odd experience I saw was driving north on 101 in CA during rush hour in the lane beside off ramps it twice it...

    NHTSA Vehicle Speed Control Complaints

    Careful for sure. A significant number of the complaints were filed by a short seller on behalf of multiple Tesla owners even though they do not own a Tesla themselves. Tesla did co-operate with NHTSA wrt the investigation and none of the incidents could be traced to a vehicle fault. Teslas...

    Could Taycan, Mustang-e, Rivian etc. hurt Tesla in a way you wouldn't think

    I don’t agree with your conclusions. EVGo is adding Tesla connectors to their network which I love in the absence of a CCS adaptor. Demand will drive deployment by non Tesla charging networks and EV availability will drive charger network deployment. As the new EVs come online more and more...

    Connector needed for level 3 at EVgo

    That is not a J1772 and currently does not work for Teslas - that connector is a FastDC CCS connector where the top pins are the same as J1772 and the bottom has two additional pins for the FastDC. I had a Chevy Bolt that used CCS for DC fast charge and I used it at many EVGo stations. On the...

    Failed to turn on climate

    I had the exact issue on our mid 2018 MX. Started in the fall of 2019, went away after a S/W update and then started being persistent at XMAS at the time of the 50.X updates. Made an SC apmt and used it also to get our HW3 upgrade and they reset the controls for the HVAC and so far it is ok...

    Bad white model 3 seat stains

    I have had my M3 with white seats for about 20 months now - still look great and we wish we had them on our MX - had to get one tough stain out and the Chlorox wipes did the trick.

    tesla hate.

    I get mixed effects wrt our MX and M3. The majority of the time people are indifferent or ask me lots of EV and Tesla questions - charging, range, features, cold weather performance etc. However I have been coal rolled multiple times and my wife had a bunch of teenagers write obscenities in the...

    Model 3 SRPlus battery drain

    There is no way your car should have vampire drain anywhere near this level. It really feels like your HVAC and/or Sentry Mode is on. Note in the HVAC settings as mentioned earlier you can set "Keep Climate On" and you can set Sentry Mode to auto turn on when you park. Note you can geofence...

    M3P Stealth: Origins

    I have a P3D-. Performance with 18s and no big wheels or red calipers. I had been on the pre-order list from the first day you could place an M3 pre-order. Once details became available that you could get AWD in the pre-order I indicated that. Now once I could could actually configure I...

    Model 3 Standard Range Plus or Long Range AWD in the Ottawa Area?

    I have an P3D- and live in Tahoe CA. The AWD is a deal breaker for me due to the winter - but as others have pointed out a 2WD with winters is better than AWD with summers. However for the slippery conditions I see the AWD and winter tires is a game changer and makes all the 2WD cars I see in...
