As predicted, mine made the noise once, then again for a shorter period. Nothing since. I wasn't able to check the impact on range. I'm just glad there's nothing wrong with the car. I'm 15 months past my last service (4 year service) and I'm hoping to avoid service/repairs for some time...

This is happening to my car now. Exact same noise. 2014 S85 VIN 329XX I'll wait a few days to see if it stops as expected. I'll update once resolved.

I'm charging in Hope now, and the guys are working on the expansion. You're correct, four more chargers, ready in a few weeks.

I charged in Hope yesterday (Sunday around 2pm) and got the last spot. 3 Ss and 3 Xs. I'd like to see the current 6 stalls increased to 12 before Model 3s start arriving in numbers. Plenty of room in that lot.

Elon Tweeted this morning about cross-Canada Superchargers. Chris Sweeney ‏@SweensChris 3h3 hours ago @elonmusk any plans to the the supercharger network to be extended in Canada so it's possible to drive across the whole country? Elon MuskVerified account‏@elonmusk @SweensChris Should...

Thanks Paul, done.

Hi Steve, Do you have a +1? I'm a fellow Vancouverite, but I'll be in Sacramento/Reno until the 31st. If you have a +1, I could pick you up at the Reno airport and drive us to the event (in a Tesla).

If you fly to Sacramento, I can drive (2hrs) and be your +1. Cheaper flight than Reno?

If you fly to Sacramento, I can drive (2hrs) and be your +1!

If there are still any +1s up for grab, please PM me! I live in Vancouver, BC, but happen to be in Sacramento until July 31st, with nothing to do July 29th.... I did the factory tour last week in Fremont, but they couldn't help me out with any Gigafactory info.

It's Ken Wilson at Autowerkes Exclusive. When I picked up my Model S two years ago I drove it straight to his shop in Maple Ridge and he did about half the car in Xpel Ultimate and then coated the entire car with Opticoat, including the rims. When I got new rims he also applied Opticoat for...

I also received an invite, but unfortunately I'll be out of town. I'm looking forward to stopping by when I return a few weeks later. I imagine they may have more events now that they have a larger space.

I saw a Blue Model X driving in downtown Vancouver today. Gorgeous in person. Washington plates of course.

You're correct that in Kits, and downtown, most units are strata. Permission to install a charger isn't the problem, it's the cost, and how to bill the user for the electricity. Some of the smaller buildings in Kits may be able to install a 15-40 or a level 2 charger for their handful of...

Hopefully it's both. The new service center/store will be swamped with the Model 3 so a SuperCharger would be useful for Tesla to charge all of the cars going through, and immensely helpful for many downtown owners. They really should have one near Hwy 1, but the apartment dweller issue is...
