    Supercharger - Tucson, AZ - West River Road

    The most my 2015 S85 with 143000 miles will do is 125kW but I saw a lower charge rate and smaller cables at Tucson West River Road than the other four 250kW Supercharges I used this trip. Granted I was only there for about 15 min and did not try another station. I will take some notes on next...

    Supercharger - Tucson, AZ - West River Road

    I understand classic 85 but I just drove 2500 miles using 20 different superchargers in 5 days and Tucson West River Road was the slowest charge on the trip. Of course the 1 I used might have been defective as I found 3 others that did not work or were cycling up and down on this trip.

    Lug Nuts: suggestions, problems, questions

    Stock split-spoke. Bought a 6 point 22mm socket which I had to tap onto the old lug nuts and then tap them out of the socket after removal.

    Funniest Tesla Question Thread

    I was charging in Payson AZ and another elderly man walked up and asked me how long it took to charge. When I explained it to him, he acted like I was lying and stomped off.

    Supercharger - Tucson, AZ - West River Road

    Stopped by last night (6-22-22) with my 2015 S85 and I don't think these are 250kW chargers. Cable is smaller than 150kW chargers and was charging slower than my previous stop at Wilcox Az. I was only there for a few minutes and my state of charge was higher than it was at Wilcox but my miles...

    Lug Nuts: suggestions, problems, questions

    Just replaced my lug nuts with Gorilla Lug Nuts p/n 61147CX. Five packs of 4 each were $98.93 from Wal Mart.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Just filed my claim for reimbursement. Was well past 100000 miles when my eMMC started failing in July 2020 and Tesla wanted $1600 so I spent $600. Will post when I hear something.

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    Update for entry on July 26: Have now put 445 miles (mostly short trips) on 2015 S after replacement of emmc by evfixme. Passive entry and traction control sliders are now working. Have had a few glitches that I think may be emmc replacement related. Had to re-learn garage door opener, cabin...

    Wiki Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) (Black Center Screen)

    "Chalk up another satisfied customer of Tony's." Add me to the list. Just put my 2015 S85 back together after getting the emmc chip replaced at EV-Fixme. In my case just selecting the Trip menu item on the screen would reboot the MCU. I have only driven the car four times but so far...

    MCU Repair - Arizona

    Do a search for mcu repair, there are several threads on the subject. Mine started acting up late last year and the final straw was I could not access the trip menu page without crashing the mcu starting last week. I took mine apart and sent the eMMC board to EV-FixMe but Grubermotors in...

    USB drive worked previously but during troubleshooting I added a TeslaCam directory which prevented USB icon from appearing. Once TeslaCam directory was removed USB know works. YEA......

    2020.12.11.x

    2020.12.11.5 installed last night in 2015 AP1 S 85 and have not driven it yet but can confirm the amateur programmers have not fixed the missing USB audio issue.

    Experiences with Model S beyond 100K, 200K miles...

    2015 S 85 with 128K. When I first got it was doing 150 miles a day commuting across Phoenix and would do it again. Have had only minor problems. About 20K is out of state travel including 2 trips to Philly and stayed in Northeast Philly for just over a year.
