I did not have any issues upgrading with the cable disconnected. Everything behaves the same after the update. After reading this thread, I'm not even going to try reconnecting it, because it seems update didn't fixed it. Starting to think that Tesla should recall the retrofit and get a better...

Updates: Last week I left the car plugged in the garage and over 4 days it lost 20% of its charge. It would not auto charge for the most part. It did once it hit 61% while I was gone, so I was ecstatic that Telsa may have fixed it. But when I got home, it is behaving as original - losing charge...

Not much better with 2024.3.10. Battery was at 80% with charging complete, just post the install and I did a manual reboot at 9pm last nght. This morning at 5am, car was at 76% (50F in garage, no sentry mode). The charge port was red with error pcs_a022. So it couldn't auto charge. I had to...

+1 to this issue. Had an auto trunk retrofit 2 weeks ago. a week later HAVC error vcfront_a447, plus vehicle was not going to sleep and pcs_a022 error. Scheduled an appointment. last week while I was out on spring break and before the appointment, car was in garage Tesla support remote pushed...

One thing that sucked last winter was my kids would come down to my office ahead of needing a ride to various activities and I had forgotten to condition the car...sucked esp. when it's 5F outside and we had to leave immediately and so the car barely getting 1 min of preconditioning. Then I...

I will just open source once I figure out how to automate the deployment such that anyone who want to use it can simply deploy their own instance in cloud and never have to send/share their password/token and never have to worry about legal ramification of being shut down by google or tesla.

Damn...if only I had found this post months ago. :oops: Do I regret any of the thousands of lines of code I wrote for this? 🥵Maybe...but it was a fun covid project.

Winter sunsets are the best....especially the day after a snow storm....0% humidity 10F outside.

Fall is in the air...

Thanks! I am already used to the rust with higher iron content rotors/pads. My GT-R rusts the pads on so hard that when I back it out they go bang! Now to wait for a MPP holiday deal to come along to buy a set.:D

FWIW, I measured at my current mileage of ~5100 miles using a depth gauge which costs all but $3. The front depth was just at 8.5/32nd. The rear depth was at ~7.5/32nd. These tires new come at 9/32nd. The rear wore out ~3x faster than the front, and I have an AWD. so I rotated them. It's a 45...

Quick Q for those who have installed the MPP or other slotted rotors: Have you noticed any increase in noise level? Every slotted rotor I have ever installed on any my other cars, adds a whirring noise. especially noticeable at low speeds in parking lots/ramps where the sound can be heard...

I can vouch for Chad. Good communication, quick shipping directly from Xpel distribution location via Fedex and really good prices. Completed my DIY of Hood and Fender Bikini cut, Mirrors and full bumper. Def a learning experience but great DIY project. --> Tesla DIY Geek: DIY Xpel Ultimate PPF...

I did a DIY install of the Eibach and cannot be happier. Should have done it sooner. A quick before and after shot (tried to get same angle) I posted complete DIY instruction along with many subtleties of doing this as a DIY in the garage without a lift and some tools needed. A few...
