    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Sorry I’m so new to this that I don’t even know how to check for basic logs (I should be forced to turn in my tech-bro card, I suppose?)… I‘m doing a zero-data brand new install so nuking and rebuilding at this point is 100% painless… but I hope to have actual data soon that I’d want to protect ;-)

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Having lots of linux but very little docker background, I tried getting teslamate up and running in a scratch virtual machine. When composing with the current (July '23) YAML file from the github repo, I was unable to connect to the teslamate container - kept getting various connection refused...

    Totaled a Model S that had unlimited supercharging... who could I beg for the trade in credit on a new one?

    Lots of companies (including my employer) routinely do things that are slightly out of policy or guidance or whatever to "be nice" -- especially to good/repeat customers. I fully realize this is not 2014, but in 2014 the manager of the local service center proactively called me and said they...

    Totaled a Model S that had unlimited supercharging... who could I beg for the trade in credit on a new one?

    So here's my sob story... Tesla had a promotion running where you could get $$$ credit or several years of free supercharging if you traded in or otherwise removed an existing unlimited supercharging Model S from your account. The best info I could find said this was valid through June 30...

    Totaled 2020, replace with '23... what will I like and hate?

    @Anson Fung - what are you using to capture the data to feed into grafana?

    Totaled 2020, replace with '23... what will I like and hate?

    Hmmmm... so short of completely replacing the wheels there's no way NOT to end up with staggered tires?

    Ordering vs New Inventory

    I'm somewhat confused here... everything written above makes sense, but doesn't answer this question: Why would two identical cars, both in inventory, both available for delivery in the same place, be different in price by ~~$2800?

    Totaled 2020, replace with '23... what will I like and hate?

    got rear-ended in my 2020 S (built Nov/2019, so an early Raven) and just got the word that it's totaled. Sigh. Planning to replace it with a '23 non-plaid. As a contented customer with no upgrade plans since then I've paid almost no attention to what's changed, but now I'm forced to. Looks like...

    Expected charge rate for given scenario

    I'm confused here. I have a "2020" Model S, Raven/refresh whatever it's called. (Delivery date was early December 2019) Multiple times in recent road trips I've navigated either TO or VIA a v3 supercharger, arrived after driving an extended period (at least 100 miles, often 200) and not seen...

    Supercharger - Old Fort, NC

    Hmmmm. Only got 130kW today with only one other car here (not sharing). Stalls are {1,2,3} x {A-D}. 55F ambient, we navigated here so the car should have been properly conditioned. Our charge at arrival was about 15-20% full. MAYBE having just come down the hill with lots of regen the...

    Supercharger - Old Fort, NC

    So that gas station has been there for at least 30 years (this is on the route to my grandparents' house) and it's pretty run down to be kind. I'm told that earlier this year someone new bought it so maybe the new owners are hoping to spruce it up and drive some traffic to the site ... it could...

    Supercharger Siler City, NC

    I doubt you can get away politically with spending public money on something that isn't a "public service". I'm certain lots of people would rant and rave that Tesla drivers are getting what amounts to a free subsidy for charging stations... even though the reality is that the other, slower...

    2020 S: Pushing trunk "button" with key fob doesn't unlock/open

    So I’m coming back to this because it’s still never worked “right”. If I stand at the back of the car — like a foot from the trunk hatch — with the key fob (new battery just to be extra sure) and press the trunk button, nothing happens. I have to unlock the car (doesn’t matter how) before the...

    HVAC barely blowing air (possibly blocked somewhere?)

    So I'm pretty sure it was just the coils freezing over. Turning off the A/C for a little while and letting the fan run cleared it up, but I'm still a little concerned that it happened in the first place. And sure, NC has been hot (and humid as hell) but it's not like we're Arizona heat or...

    HVAC barely blowing air (possibly blocked somewhere?)

    Within the past couple of days, the HVAC in my 2020 Model S has been behaving funny (and poorly). Regardless of the fan settings, there's no more than a trickle of air coming through the vents. The air is definitely conditioned (it's cold and dry) but the volume of air is very low so it...
