Curiosity. We only hear about the issues typically on forums, so I'm wondering how many folks are still running on their original battery packs to get a small sample size comparison.

How so? Isn't the rated range on the display based on the battery capacity being reported? I'm assuming "from the BMS" you're referring to the information you can get using something like TM-Spy. At least in my experience, I've found the displayed rated range to match what is being reported by...

I don't think there's a way to know the percentage of all 2012-2015 Model S's that have had their battery packs replaced, but I'm curious about the owners here on TMC. In addition to answering the poll, if you want to provide any amplifying information such as miles, rated range at 100%, etc...

Sorry to hear - I’m worried this will be me in about a month. My battery warranty ends in December on my 2015 MS 85D. It’s been great so far minus the battery capacity - it’s degraded significantly from 265 miles with ~44k miles in 2019 to now only 202 miles with ~78k miles at 100% charge (this...

I let the battery run down to 9%, then charged back up to 100% and the rated range is now 203 miles. This is similar to what I’ve seen in the past, doing a ”battery calibration” has made very little difference for me. I suspect my battery is just degrading faster than normal, despite only...

Not sure unfortunately because Tesla service removed my OBDII adapter and LELink2 bluetooth dongle the last time it was in for service. I didn't recognize it until recently. I might purchase another one soon just to get a better idea but from what I've seen, the nominal full pack is in line with...

30 Oct 2024 w/ 78,011 miles, 200 rated miles. Kind of a bummer how fast this battery seems to be degrading. I was around 265 rated miles in 2019 with roughly 40,000 miles. I’m going to try a “recalibration” this week (let it go to <10% charge and full charge up to 100%) bit when I’ve tried that...

I'm in a similar situation as the OP - 2015 85D with the battery and drive unit warranty that expires in December 2023. It's been a great car so far but I'm debating if I want to keep it without the warranty. From everything I've read, it's very difficult to determine if a battery pack or drive...

Also curious about this. @stevej119 what was the result of your appointment?

Primarily pigeons. Are you saying it doesn't look like a pigeon could get in the bottom or sides because of the skirt/trim that Tesla installs (without the additional pest abatement mesh)? If so, I think they definitely would be able to. If you're talking about with the pest abatement I had...

I have a 2015 85D MCU1 on 2022.8.10.8 and I do not have Apple Music… I’m assuming this is the latest version as I updated only a couple weeks ago. Kind of bummed since I was hoping we would be able to get it.

Same on my 2015 Model S 85D. Tapping and holding where it says Model S under Software will bring up the “Please enter access code” screen but after typing in “service”, nothing happens.

Finally got a technician out after 2+ months in level 2 support queue. The issue ended up being a bad Y-splitter. Specifically, just one side of the splitter was bad where it was reading higher (almost double). I explained all the troubleshooting I did and also the fact that other technicians...

Correction to this - I’m estimated to lose less than 1% (0.9% to be exact or ~157 kWh/yr), not 0.01% of annual production. The point still stand, I’m just terrible with numbers apparently. 🤣

Thanks for the update! I have four CTs and tested them individually and they all read high as well, although it’s not always 2x. Sometimes it’s fairly accurate and other times it’s basically 2x. Fingers crossed this is will be the solution to the problem many of us are seeing.
