    Repair a broken HPWC?

    That contactor part was exactly what I needed to fix my Gen 1 HPWC. Ordered it from online components.com for $45 shipped. Took about 1 hour to replace as it is a tight space and I'm back to charging at 58mi/hr (19kw). Saved me a bunch of $$$$. These forums and everyone here are godsend!!!

    Vendor Rear Adjustable Camber Bushings for Model S/X Group Buy

    Custom alignment in Mountain View will probably do it... But they ain't cheap.

    Supercharging old timers

    I guess this is one way to force people to upgrade for those that use their cars for long travels! I understand they need to protect the batteries, but what they did is put a bandaid. When I bought my car, he advertised fast charging (~ 30 min) and now it is 1 hour at least. My opinion is to...

    Model S85D slow at supercharger

    Yes, they slowed alot of the older 85 kw cars. Mine barely exceeds 66 kw/hr with less than 20 rated miles. Now it takes 1 hour to supercharge. Used to charge to 110 kw/hr.

    Supercharging old timers

    Correct. I am in warrantynfornthe battery, butnif they say "as expected ", I'm assuming they will charge me for diags. I wanted to see if others had this same experience so I don't waste my time going in. Seems like others are... I definitely wouldn't mind a new battery!!

    Supercharging old timers

    I wish I rejected the updates. It just got so annoying everyone I park the car, it keeps having click close just to see the screen again. Good way to annoy you to update. I am currently on 2019.24.4. For Tesla to cover themselves, it looks like they have to throttle us old timers because it...

    Supercharging old timers

    Thanks for getting back to me. Mine is the B version. I'm out of warranty and before I schedule a visit to the SC, want to be sure no one else is having this issue before i make an appointment to pay for diags.

    Supercharging old timers

    I am the original owner of my 2013 P85. I maybe supercharge 15 times a year and used to be able to get roughly 110kw at best when I charge with the range down to 20 to 30 miles. I typically arrive at the supercharger after 2 hours of driving so I know the battery should be "warm." Temperature...

    Adding Next Gen seats to an older S

    @Topgun66 Did they end up shipping these to you? I finally got a hold of some 2016 front seats and want to see if they ever did. I'll probably head to the service center in a few days to see if I can get these adapter connectors.

    Service Center Scrached my hood after Warrentee work.

    They see hundreds of Tesla's and many of them dont care. It's another car to them unless it's their own. Since Tesla has grown so big, I'm sure they hired good and bad techs. Back when they were smaller in 2013, they hired techs that took good care of my car and was careful. They even told me...

    Adding Next Gen seats to an older S

    I tried Ebay and craigslist and never see any for sale. Maybe gray just isn't very popular.... if anyone has any pointers to find them, please let me know.
