I just found this simple chart concerning current EV's and amount of charge gained in a 20 minute charge session. Based on this limited sample, I'm not sure 800 volts systems buy you much. This chart was from August 2023 Panorama magazine. (A Porsche magazine)

Hello, I too have free supercharging and I'm curious how you know the charges at the supercharger were it not free. I have never seen real number as it is always no charge and I do use the superchargers a lot when I travel.

I wanted to provide follow up here as I now have the Model X back. Car was towed to SC on May 9, and I picked it on May 25. Service performed sounds consistent with what others have experienced. HV batt. RAVEN(1107679-01-E;, 12V battt. replaced, Drain and refill HV battery Coolant. SC advisor...

I too am very disappointed that the service center could not immediately answer this! My 2019 Model X is in for service as we speak, and things like this make me wonder the knowledge level of the staff. You best hang on to that Wall Connector, as I suspect new ones will only support 48 Amps...

Model X, 2019 September Build. My vehicle went into what most would call a "limp mode" and advised to stop driving ASAP. I got it home and in texting the SC with the codes it was diagnosed as a HV battery failure, and I could not get a repair slot for about a week. After a day or so, screen...

I can not report as having the issue,, but I can report that mine seems to be correct in regard to status showing in my case 99% off peak, and 1.0% as peak, which squares up with how we charge. App.is 4.20.75, 2019 Model X, Get 2 Wall Connector.

HomeLink has been around for years and you would be hard put to find a luxury level vehicle without it. MyQ is an app. for Liftmaster smart garage door openers, just as Aladdin is for Genie brand openers. Homelink really does not know or care about MyQ or Aladdin. The MyQ app can be used to open...

I can not believe I omitted that! It is a 2019, September build. I do not recalll the battery letter but I do recall when I looked at it, it was not the latest one for that time period.

I have a Tesla Model X that gave a warning message of basically "Do Not Continue Driving". The car has about 75k miles on it and I contacted Tesla Roadside Assist, and they advised that since the car was out of warranty, there would be a charge. Turned out that charge was quoted at $300 to tow...

Well I too am joining a club of which I wish I were not a member. Model X,, 2019 September build. HV battery failure with codes as others have mentioned. Waited a week to get appointment for repair, car has been at SC about a week and now I am told a date of May 24. Car has 75k miles, lots of...

Is the noise inside or outside of the cabin? The Model X has several heating and cooling systems that are not all related to passenger comfort, and they run whenever their respective sensors signal it. For brief periods some can be a bit loud externally.

Researching this a bit more I have found YouTube videos on repairing "broken" scroll wheels. Just to be clear this is not the case with mine. It was working and then the other day I needed to use it to select from a list, and it did not work. It is fine mechanically. I suspect this was...

September 2019 build, Model X, 2023.2.12 ver. The steering wheel right side scroll/select button is not working. This is normally used to scroll and select what information is displayed in the driver right side display. It is also used to scroll and select names from your contact list is you...

Wow, looks like I should have done a search before entering my thoughts, as it looks like with the change in battery chemistry they have indeed increased charging voltage to a maximum of 16 VDC. I would review voltage input specs on any gear you were considering to install. If the gear can not...

I have no definitive knowledge regarding a change to 16 Volt battery as opposed to 12, but that would seem highly unlikely to me as all generic 12 volt auto components and accessories would not be usable. 73's K6BCD
