    Supercharger - Richmond, VA

    Tesla’s supercharger map has been updated to show a new Richmond installation coming somewhere in Q1 2022. I wonder which Wawa or Sheetz it’ll be :)

    Front Control Arm Replaced 16K Miles - I was charged?

    Noodles is right. You should not pay for that. Check this post and thread for what they replaced on my car with front end clunking. Creaking noise over speed bumps

    Headrest material breakdown

    You must be kidding that he’s using the headrest incorrectly. Even if his seat isn’t “reclined too far” your head will still touch the headrest from time to time. To answer Op’s question... same thing happened to me. And I have standard issue guy hair that uses just a little pomade. I told...

    Rear Side Reflector Fell Off

    As I was getting my bag out of my trunk today, I noticed the rear side reflector panel looked to have a bigger gap than usual. It wiggled when I pressed on it and with only a tiny pull, it came off in my hands. It will go back on, but it doesn't snap or feel very secure. Alas, there is no hidden...

    MICHELIN® Primacy™ MXM4 Holding up pretty good

    I just replaced my stock MXM4 after 2 years and 32k miles. 240 Wh/mile lifetime. Never rotated. The rears were right on the verge of failing inspection. The fronts probably could've lasted another 5000ish miles. I'm not an overly aggressive driver, but I certainly have some fun and don't baby...

    Michelin CrossClimate+

    I didn't know that, but it makes sense I suppose. Alas, I had to use what I had at hand. If the MX4Ms did get louder over the years, I didn't notice. The wind noise from the door and window seals is a bigger problem :D We need someone with relatively new stock tires to take some dB readings in...

    Michelin CrossClimate+

    Adding a data point ... My MXM4 were ready for replacement after 32k miles and it was a tossup whether or not I'd pass inspection this year. Plus I always thought the MXM4 got a little squirrelly in the rain. After some research, I set my sights on the crossclimate+. Costco said they were out...

    Creaking noise over speed bumps

    Before you let them tell you it is your coilovers, I had the same creaking and clanking at low speeds over speed bumps and pot holes. Mostly coming from the driver's front. Like Nean mentioned, Tesla is aware of the issue. The service center did a ride along and heard the noise and knew...

    Model 3 Battery Range Recovery

    Unfortunately, you can't change the data on the X axis to months. I know stats isn't quite as accurate as something you'd get from the OBD port, but I see it usually match up with the range displayed on the car itself when I flip it form % to range. I agree that there is something temperature...

    Model 3 Battery Range Recovery

    I see lots of posts worried about range and battery degradation. I, too, worried about it a lot watching this degradation take place using Stats. Around 25k miles I even asked Tesla to look into the HV battery during a service visit for an unrelated issue. (Service Center was great, btw, and has...

    Warranty 70% of 310 or 325?

    Yes, I realize that ultimately it comes down to the kWh the pack can hold. But seeing as how there is no official original capacity when new stated on any paperwork I know of, nor a way to access “nerd mode” in the software to see battery info, I only have displayed range at 100% to use as my...

    Warranty 70% of 310 or 325?

    I've never seen this definitely stated so I was wondering... From Tesla's perspective, is my battery warranty on my 2018 LR RWD 70% of the 310 on the sticker or 325 Tesla "unlocked" (but I never saw much of any bump from)? I have 30k miles on my pack and it's still reporting ~305 when at...

    Front end rattle/clunk noises

    I had a similar issue with a clank/clunk coming from the driver's front wheel well when going over bumps at lower speeds. I went on a test ride with the Tesla SC tech around the parking lot, ran over a few speed bumps, he confirmed the noise and said he'd seen it many times before. 3 hours...

    model 3 salvage car parts.

    How are the wheels and tires? How many miles were on the car if they are the originals?

    Body shop damaging the battery

    I’m also in a similar situation with my new Tesla. Completely discharged for 6 weeks and counting despite my asking them many times to charge it. I’m surprised how few threads there are about this. If anyone gets more info please let us know. I still don’t have her back yet, and it may be...
