I was not able to charge anywhere this morning except 3A was giving me about 12 kW. I called service and reported the issue. They need to fix this ASAP.

Mine was warranty. Just got it back after 2 weeks at service center. They replaced the HV battery pack (no cost of course) and now seems fine. Uncertain what went wrong with a new car/battery pack with only 16K miles on it and they did not give me any specifics.

Had same problem - old 85D charged fine for 3 yrs then in Apr 2018 new 100D (MCU2) wouldn't charge. Tesla sent me 2 new HPWC units (to replace the two HPWC gen1 units I had) and have used them since then without problems. I then sold the HPWC gen 1 units on ebay for a decent price (making it...

Yes I'm planning on doing that. About $65 in gas for the Hyundai over 2 weeks. Makes you appreciate your MS and the low cost of electrons. Battery was replaced. They have not given me details (I asked). I'm sure they are not eager for me to investigate the details of why the pack failed. At one...

Took delivery of LR M3 today via enclosed truck in upstate NY. Not much communication beforehand. Only complaint is that the car wont show up in the app so I have to use the key card for driving. I have read that it can take several days for them to process your car as having been delivered and...

Just had battery failure on my 2018 100D with 13K miles. Very disappointing. Was driving back from Thanksgiving trip and noticed the " no Regen" indicator was on (yellow dashed line). Realized battery heater was not working. It was fairly cold (upstate NY) Could only charge at 25Kw at SC. Long...

Just had apparent battery heater failure driving about 600 miles round trip upstate NY to PA and back. On the way back, noticed no regen (yellow dashed line) even though I had been driving for an hour. Noticed slow 25KW rate of charge as superchargers. Called support while driving and they are...

In my case the better Wh/mi is seen on the newer car with new tires (vs the 85d with 45K miles and older tires). Granted I have only driven in spring/summer weather so far so this is not complete data at this point. I hope it is true that they have tweaked efficiency with the motor tweaks, aero...

Thank you for the valuable info. Will try this and post what happens.

I have a 100D which so far (3 mos) is more efficient than my prior 85D (45K miles at about 330 wH/mi). I think it is very plausible that the cars actually have become more efficient.

Hello I'm on my second Model S. I have a 100D delivered in April. Love the car. Was leasing an 85D for prior 3 years. I have a persistent problem with charging at home with the wall charger. The car "thinks" there is a problem with the charging cable (message says something like "cable fault")...

I see this is addressed in a different thread. Sorry I missed that. Car won’t charge on HPWCs/UMC, says check Wall Power

I'm on 20. xxx ff9 update. No adjacent lanes for me. I had AP1 in prior MS 85d and liked seeing adjacent lane cars (there is mixed opinion on this). So I'm glad to see that reappearing. I'm confused whether with EAP the side cameras are active (for blind spot) or turned off unless you have...

Interesting post. I have ff9 as of this AM so no AP testing yet but I have often felt it is a no-brainer to display lane confidence as you describe rather than binary. I was thinking it would be a grey-red-yellow-green scheme (when not engaged) and then blue when engaged (with the confidence...
