If your Continental ProContact RX are wearing 2x as fast in the rear than the front, you should get your alignment checked.

Correct. My reference was based upon the article that was posted, which were earlier versions of the Model S.

What tires are you using on the Y LR? I rotate my tires when the tread depth difference is 2/32" between the front and rear and my tires are wearing evenly. I just pulled off my summer set (Continental ExtremeContact) and they're both at 4/32" currently. Same with the stock Continental...

I don't think this is a good article to reference due to the differences in the motor setup between the older S and the current powertrains. The Y uses induction motor in the front (same as the older S) but the permanent rear magnet motor in the rear. The S uses induction motors front and rear...

Conversely, in the winter you may find it falling a few percentage short of your target level. The CAC value fluctuates with the temperature, so it'll overshoot in warmer temps, undershoot in cooler temps.

I'll do new datalogs in the winter, but I believe a recent update has the front motor more involved with the brake regen when there's rear axle slippage detected. This was done for more front end stability during poor traction conditions. Previously, the front motor provided essentially no...

Wow, great deal. Someone needs to get these.

I don't have a 2018-2020 Model 3 to compare since my wife and I have heat pumps in both vehicles (2020 Y LR, 2021 3 P). I have 3 full summers and 2 winters in my Y, 2 summers and 1 winter in the 3. Ironically, the car is less efficient in the summer. I'm pulling my info from the car with the...

Things are good still. I'm installing the front adjustable camber arms next week so I can tweak the front more.

No, no issues. The 255mm tire on the 9" width is perfect. I've done the math and it's perfectly fine. As long as you're not towing and have four very large adults in the car and the hatch is isn't loaded with 900 lbs of bricks, the tires and wheels can handle the load.

Note, it's a 4 year warranty for residential use, 1 year for commercial use, although most of us will fall under the 4 year warranty umbrella.

I use a Milwaukee Stubby with a 21mm impact wrench thin wall socket, along with ear protection. There's nothing special about the Tesla lug nuts & wheel studs that should prevent you from using normal tools. Husky 50-250 ft-lb torque wrench.

You might want to delete this thread (linked below) posting the wheels for $1500 if you're selling them for $1600 in this thread. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/fs-19-tss-tsportline-matte-black-wheel-set-north-nj.269448/

Stinks that they made you do all that extra stuff. They looked at my charging logs and 2 minutes later, told me they would send a replacement. For the replacement 4 working days later.

They could also keep it simple. Cold/warm/hot/pull over and shut the car off. Just like the old analog coolant temp gauges.
