My Roadster went into the SC on July 22nd for the battery upgrade. They contacted me a few days ago and said that they could not yet do the swap as my existing battery was fairly full when I turned the car over to them and they need it down to about 10% of a full charge. I wish I had known, I...

I'm surprised that Tesla has already booked me into a local SC for the battery upgrade for mid-July! People were speculating that they could only hand-make 1 to 3 battery packs per month and I asked the rep how many people he had already called and he said he had talked to several people. I...

Agreed (but then it wouldn't be "low mileage")!

Hello TEG. I have long admired your posts and dedication to all things Tesla!! Thank you for all you do. When the 3.0 Upgrade Program was first made available in early September, 2015, I immediately put down my $5K deposit. Over the years, I have patiently waited to see if the program would get...

Hello all. I haven't communicated on this forum in years but I have just been contacted about the Roadster 3.0 Battery Upgrade program. My car is low mileage and the existing battery pack is doing well but I feel that if I can upgrade the batteries now, I will (hopefully) be extending the useful...

That was me in High Park last Sunday. I saw a Blue or Black MS on Rathburn near Kipling a few weeks ago but nothing since.

I love my Model S when it is gleaming clean, but I admit to being lazy about hand washing the car myself. The Owners Manual has the following caution about using car washes: "If washing in an automatic car wash, use “Touchless” car washes only. These car washes must have no parts, such as...

My Parcel Shelf has just been delivered, so I expect that others in Canada are receiving theirs as well. I had not seen one before and had originally hoped it was some kind of roller shade that was unobtrusive when not in use. Instead the shelf is a bit invasive in the rear storage area. It is...

Mine arrived today, too.

Driving along Bloor around Bathurst St this afternoon when another Red Sig passed in the other direction. We each had a quick wave with each other. I could see he had "green plates" with a low number. I saw a Red Sig about 6 weeks ago after I was exiting the QEW in Oakville. My other most recent...

My car arrived without the Paint Armour applied and it was these people who Tesla Toronto brought in to install the Tesla kit after the fact: (I hope it is okay to post their info) Lorrie Knapp Auto Trim & Signs of Niagara 94 Dunkirk Rd. Unit 5N St. Catharines, ON L2P 3H4 p. 905.684.9432...

You're correct. The CS-100 charger outputs 80 Amps to the car.

Doug can probably answer this better than I could. First, I'm not sure if the CS-100 is available yet since Sun Country doesn't show pricing for it. Second, Tesla's web site says that a public J1772 charger can deliver 80Amps. I thought the J1772 design standard was limited to less ampacity than...

I keep hearing of "90 Amp chargers" but, just to be clear, the CS-90 model that Sun Country is offering charges the vehicle at around 70 Amps. It is the breaker in the hydro panel that needs to be 90 Amps.

I created a thread about dash-cams on the Model S but most of the responses I got were about the camera I had installed in my Roadster. The mounting bracket and specs for the camera are part of the thread, although I never got around to posting a picture of it deployed in the vehicle. As I said...
