Since my UWC was updated to the HEAD (3CAE3FBA856679) firmware, it has worked flawlessly, charging my wife's Rivian. Shared charging on the same circuit with a Tesla-only Gen 3 wall charger has also worked fine, splitting the available amperage between the two vehicles when charging...

Tesla pushed the aforementioned HEAD (3CAE3FBA856679) firmware to the UWC today, and low and behold, the Rivian began charging immediately. Only one charging session so far. We will see over time if it's reliable.

No. I am on the regular 23.24.3. I have not yet been offered anything directly from Tesla.

I have done everything to try and get the UWC to charge the Rivian, and still nothing. I have started an email discussion with Tesla, who is having me run through the usual "try universal setting and give it an hour," blah blah blah—still nothing. The latest firmware is installed. Hopefully...

It is not that clear in the installation instructions. There are statements like: "See below for examples of Wall Connector power-sharing diagrams (one with sub-panel and one without)." Nowhere does it explicitly say they must be on separate circuit breakers. Later in the manual, there is a...

My wife, a reluctant EV adopter, and I picked up our new Rivian yesterday (for her). Two weeks ago, I installed a Gen 3 Tesla wall charger on my side of the garage (Model S) and a universal wall charger on the other side for the Rivian to use. The chargers share the same 50 Amp circuit, and the...

I have an Oct 2016 car as well. During a mobile visit for a very unrelated reason (repeater camera replacement), the tech connected to the car and told me there was an alert dealing with the front louver mechanisms. I had no screen error messages, but I had had some irregular AC issues not...

I have watched a good sampling of the v9 videos, and it is certainly not ready for prime time, reinforcing how far we still are from anything being close to the FSD promise. But I WANT it. I paid for this software promise 4 1/2 years ago. I think we all forget how terrible EAP was when...

The above post is correct. You need to take a cold tire pressure reading before driving the car that day and inflate to 45 PSI. You can not rely on the TPMS readings while driving the car. The pressures while driving will be influenced by the heating of the tire and will vary based on...

The herky-jerky movement of autopilot is the one reason my wife will not allow me to engage it when she is in the car. I have always felt like autopilot looks no more than 10 feet in front of the car for lane management. Whenever lane lines disappear for even 20 or 30 yards, the car freaks out...

I have a 2016 AP2/MCU2 upgrade car and noticed a couple of times recently that the car was not cooling the interior correctly, but only on preconditioning the car. These were sunny days in CO when the interior temp rose into the 90's, but the exterior temp was still in the 40's. There was hot...

The problem with wind noise is the decision Tesla made with all their models to not have a full-frame around the window. The majority of wind noise comes from the lack of a good seal right next to your ear at the top of the window. No soundproofing will remove that. Road noise likely can be...

A coworker and I both lost connectivity from the phone app a few days ago (Model S and Model 3). My car will connect on wifi only, but not over the air with cellular to the car. We figured it was most likely an AT&T to car problem, but will see if it suddenly corrects.

I as well own a late 2016 MS but a 90D. Unfortunately, reading through your essay reminds one of the steady declines in anything remotely resembling customer service for Tesla. I as well got a few pieces of swag upon ordering at a "showroom." At the first service appointment, I felt like a...
