    Help with Model 3 Headlights Adjustment Settings

    Read quite a few times now how to adjust the height of the lights. But I noticed that they also can be adjusted horizontally by pressing the scroll wheel horizontally. Any thoughts on the correct horizontal position? I have to change the (vertical) adjustment every once in a while (twice since...

    Calendar app has live icon

    Hi, yesterday I just noticed that the calendar app icon showed a "1" on its calendar sheet... It was the first time I realized that the current date is shown on that icon! Maybe you all know that, but for me it was amazing to discover it! I always thought this was a fixed image with a "21" like...

    EV Trip Planner or ??

    When I use EVTP for round trips like from A to B to A, it doesn't show SuC stops even if the total amount of kWhrs is 80 or 100... And I have set up a S 70. Why is that? Am I doing something wrong? Anyone else encountered that behavior? Cheers

    CHAdeMO adapter dimensions?

    Hi Dennis, that's quite an illustrative tutorial, thank you! I think I will buy one of these adapters. Useful during holidays, even if there is a sufficient SuC coverage, the next CHAdeMO might be much closer and so you can save valuable time. And, compared to the price of the car, the CHAdeMO...

    CHAdeMO adapter dimensions?

    Hi, thinking about buying a CHAdeMO adapter, I wonder if the adapter fits into the trunk cavity? It's where I store all my charging cables and UMC and it would be great if the CHAdeMO adapter fitted there as well. Regards, Bernd

    Question to the battery experts concerning range mode

    I thought that charging a cold battery usually invokes the battery heater? When I plug in the Tesla with cold battery, it draws the typical 16 amps (I have a 11 kW Type2 home charger) but the charging speed shown in the app at the beginning lies below 51 km/hr (which is the reading I get when...

    Question to the battery experts concerning range mode

    Thanks Johan for your reply, so you are saying that even range mode uses the battery heater in very extreme conditions, but not as early as RM off? I will give it a try and see if I can get my consumption lower. My aim is getting below 320 Wh/mi, 300 would be great (186 Wh/km)... This would...

    Question to the battery experts concerning range mode

    Hi, I get quite high energy consumption while driving in cold weather. Example: 41 mi, 40 F, 65 mph mostly highway => 340 Wh/mi. Sounds not that high, but: That is with cabin temp set to 66 F and seat heater set to 1, so no too comfortable... The car is pre-heated for about 10 min which is...

    Please give me a reason to buy Tesla, and thousand excuses for not buying a Jaguar.

    1) Better is the enemy of good... 2) Jaguar is past, Tesla is future. 3) You will never waste any more minute of your life breathing filthy air at the gas station. 4) Every morning you will start with a fully charged vehicle. Every. 5) When it's time to recharge after 2 hrs drive, enjoy a coffee...

    Any configuration regrets?

    I miss the cold weather package, too. But I bought a pre-produced car from the pool so I could't change anything. I really love the interieur package (which was kind of a compromise, first I didn't want it, but it was too tempting to see a pool car which had ALMOST my desired configuration)...

    Hi, I'm not a java specialist nor do I know too much about java-on-android issues, but is it (in theory) possible to run VT on an Android phone or tablet? Did anyone try and manage to do that? Thx
