    Hello everybody. Tonite, the french youtube channel "The Choucroute Garage" published a new video taken inside the Giga Berlin Factory, and describes the production process of the german Model Y. It's worth the view. The comments are made in french, but you can activate the auto-translating...

    OVMS Module and Cooldown

    @gregd and @markwj Thanks for the answers :). I knew about the switch hack but I wanted to check first if it would be doable without wiring things. I hoped the new version of the OVMS would have some magical capabilities :) Thanks again and have a nice day :)

    OVMS Module and Cooldown

    Hello people. I exhume this thread :) Now the OVMS 3 is available and seems to be bluetooth / wifi / SMS compatible. The summer was really hot here and when driving I saw the battery pack hit high temperature levels. The question is : with the new hardware, is it possible to use the...

    Visiting Gigafactory 1 ?

    Hello Silicon Desert :) Thanks for th MP, replyed earlier ;) Your son is not kidding, we really have record heat this year. By chance today it's cooler. If you now spots where I can find gold along the 50, I'm all in. I heard there are also some water springs where you can bath? But those...

    Visiting Gigafactory 1 ?

    Hello Silicon Desert. Thanks for all those valuable infos. I was already aware you could not take picture inside the factory, and I don't mind signing a NDA. They do the same at Fremont and it's still well worth the visit. Anyway if you cannot even reach the parking lot freely, I think I'll...

    Visiting Gigafactory 1 ?

    Hello. Thanks for your answer. I already asked while booking a tour at the Fremont Factory, they told me they still don't offer tours at GF-1. But I thought it would be ok to go to the parking and take some exterio pictures, until I discover the gate and the postguard. Do you have an email to...

    Visiting Gigafactory 1 ?

    Hello People. Next September I'll have the opportunity to drive nearby GF-1 . Long ago I once read that Tesla would soon offer some Factory tours there, but it seems Elon Time is in action and they still don't offer this option. Anyway, even it it's really futile, I'd love to drive there on the...

    Initial impressions: Nitron 46mm NTR Race 1-way shocks

    What a horrible situation... How can they refuse to give required paper for a product they sell in EU ?? And how are we supposed to maintain our costly cars if we're unable to get original replacement pieces from Bildstein ? This is becoming crazy ! I was never told I could end up in such a...

    Initial impressions: Nitron 46mm NTR Race 1-way shocks

    If I remember correctly, the original total on the rear Bilstein was 900. I have no clue if 50 less will affect the car in any way :p It doesn't sounds to be a great difference to me, but I'm not a car specialist ;) Wish you a good replacement, keep us informed :)

    Wheel bearing change.

    Hello. I didn't touch anything at the lower bolt. The piece did rotate easily as soon as the upper bolt was removed, and the part was slided a millimeter or two to allow the rotation. It took me some time to figure that at first ;) best regards

    Wheel bearing change.

    Hello Vip, thanks for the feedback. Glad you managed to change you wheel bearing , awesome work !! Just a tip for next time : you don't need to remove the brakes completely. When you have removed the upper bold, the whole part can rotate and free the rotor. The trick to do this, is to push /...
