    MS 2016 - Navigation - No blue line, no auto-zoom

    Since around 11/2021, I'm having intermittent issues with my navigation not auto-zooming on the main screen, nor showing the blue line there. I still get directions on the smaller screen. Had the chip replaced, MCU 1, version 2020.48.37.8. Any thoughts about what could be wrong? Tesla reset it...

    Solar - Cost effective in PA?

    I got PA money back for my Model S. Your electricity seems way too cheap. In addition to generation you also have to pay for distribution. In Sewickley, it over 24c/kWh.

    Panel physics

    Great points. Basic question: What does CT/CTs mean? Martin

    Panel physics

    Just had or 20.1 kW Tesla/Solaredge system activated. Quick question about panel physics. I have noticed that in the morning the system registers little "bumps" of energy generation - but with concurrent "bumps" in my USE graph (using the solarxity website NOW function). Is low energy generation...

    No one has any experience with tranching?

    Tranching

    I had a 20.2 kW Tesla system installed 2 weeks ago in Pittsburgh. Township inspection done. I'm doing PPA leasing. Now waiting for "tranching". How much time does this usually take?

    What's your 90%?

    9/2016 90D, 14k miles. 90% at 258 miles. I have only charged to 100% twice. Will charging to 100% harm the battery, or improve the estimated/actual range?

    How often do you need to top up the tire pressure?

    Ok! Thanks for the good tips. And yes, I guess we're fairly protected here in Appalachia.

    How often do you need to top up the tire pressure?

    Quick question. I'm in Pittsburgh. We sometimes have wide temperature variation. For example, 24 today, and 54 on Friday. Which is better - avoid low or high tire pressures?

    Model S Technical / Mechanical Issues

    Brief update: After technicians worked on my faulty parking brake they identified the wire harness as the culprit. After several days (10 in total) the technicians were unable to identify the exact problem in the "80 miles of wiring". My DS sensed that I was becoming uncomfortable with this...

    Charger for condo. Need lots of guidance

    Haha. I tried that once. Pittsburgh is very hilly. Despite running for 6 miles 3/week, biking to work almost gave me a heart attack.
