I got mine at the end of Feb/2013 and I got an A pack. Wonder if I got one of the last of the A packs. anyway, I'm just waiting for it to fail any day now so i can get a B pack. I can only hope. Many of you mentioned here that you would not trade your current models for the newer one if it...

4/5/14 16,500miles 314 CA S85 19 (over the last 9000 miles, 311)

Update to the temperature noted on dash and regen limit. Techs told me that the temperature shown on dash is different from the actual battery temperature--so regen limit is based on actual battery temperature of around 55F. seems bit high to me, but oh well.

45F was the next day. outside. Tesla engineers said they found no problems and are blaming the "cold" regen limit as normal. They couldn't reconcile the contradictory temperature and mileage (higher temp showing regen limit while lower temp showing no limit). they said likely software...

Funny you mention that. I just went through the whole switching plans for my 3 lines with ATT. I was a fool to not realize that caveat, and the store person said nothing about that. I went back the same day to switch back to my own plan and the persons who helped earlier said I never asked...

I live near San Jose, Ca., and I have S85. Noted regen limit come up to 30kwh with outside temp around 55F. with 186miles rated several times since I've had the car for a year now. Most of the times, I've had full (normal charge) of 220 miles at 48F without regen limit. Seems random for me...

Sunnyvale service center also said noise might be normal and wants to monitor for any change

I get that same "whine" between 30-40mph, maintaining an acceleration of 15-25kW. noise started ~8-9000 miles and worsened over 3-4 months. I'm at 12,200 miles now. will ask when I take it in for an annual.

not many options for "convenient" destination charge. different point with whole different thread for that issue.

nothing new... Infiniti LE Concept

@Dennis...yes, everyone has that choice. you can certainly continue to post as you wish and do whatever you want. Jeez...

What Bonnie says makes sense (I mentioned similar scenario earlier in my post) where Tesla genuinely thought the A packs could handle the increase in SC rate, but realized later that it "MAY" lead to more sensational journalism should even one MS catch fire while charging at a SC. So, they...

same here.

@highedu...I tell that to my wife all the time and she just rolls her eyes. I guess I should just be happy that she let me buy the 85 battery after all.
