Interesting, I didn't realize that all builds have FSD. TeslaFi actually has a filter for FSD vs. non-FSD builds so I always assumed they were different. Also interesting that another FSD car is stuck on the 2023.44.x branch like I am. Maybe a good sign that FSD 12 is near.

If I simply don't install a new build will Tesla push me another build overriding the one I'm ignoring at some point? Or do I need to install the one I'm ignoring before I could potentially get another build in the future. Interesting that your FSD Y is on the 2023 branch. My FSD Y is as...

I have been on a 2023 FSD branch since the holiday update. Now that FSD 12 is on the horizon, I have a question about software versions and branches. I noticed that some Tesla employees recently got a 2023.x release with FSD 12, and according to TeslaFi most of the 2024 software version don’t...

Has anybody driven the Hankook iON EVO AS on a snowy/slushy road? Wondering how they compare to the Michelin Sport Pilot AS in those kind of conditions.

Conveniently that's the tire that Costco has. Any idea how it compares to the Hankook Ion Eva?

What I gain by leaving my car at 100% I lose by having a bit more depth of charge I guess. Not sure who comes out ahead... I rarely do 100% overnight but always wondered if that was a bed idea. I usually sacrifice a bit of range by usually starting trips at 90% for that reason (I'm less worried...

Yep that is the same as what I said above (Tesla says to replace at 5/32 if you have to drive in snow). I plan to replace before 5/32. Since I only drive a few times in snow each year it's hard to justify winter tires for 6 months which result in an efficiency penalty. It would be different if...

Thank you!

Yeah I feel like i dont get range anxiety at 50% since can charge at a whim in my garage’s shared charger (albeit slowly at 6 kw) if I have something coming up. There are superchargers on the major highways heading out of town but frankly I’m surprised how rare DC fast charging is around here. 6...

Tesla says to replace at 5/32 if you have to drive in snow, and 4/32 in all cases. I was thinking if I hit 5/32 right around spring I can make it through summer, but will definitely replace before next fall in any case. Yeah the Conti Pro Contact is not great in snow, but I can manage. I’d...

Maybe I’m an exception but I am at 15k miles and have 5.75 mm (7/32 inches) left on front, 4.75 mm (6/32 inches) remaining on rear. I did 2 rotations already (each one at 7,500 miles). Trying to make my tires last but they’re getting close to the limit. At 5/32 Tesla says the tires are no...

I work from home and usually do one large drive each weekend. I live in a condo with a shared charger so its inconvenient to charge after every drive because I have to move my car once the charge is complete, therefore I have not been charging every day like Tesla recommends. My current...

One more thought, while the idea of using my own outlet is convenient, its a simple 120V AC outlet so it would charge my car much slower than any other option, but not necessarily a deal breaker since I could charge for multiple days and nights in a row when I'm not driving much (working from...

Not a bad idea, but that means I need to trust valet with my car and I'd persdonally rather just charge it in my parking space which already has an outlet. But for many in the building who don't have an outlet at their parking space, it would probably be a good plan because valet could reclaim...

The garage already has 6 charging spots but those spots are shared between EVs charging and valet pick-up and drop-off (about half of the residents have a private parking spot and the rest have valet spaces). The problem with the community charge spaces is we're forbidden from charging there...

I'm sure it has nothing to do with lane departure because when this happens it does not present me with the notification that happens when I actually do depart a lane, plus autopilot is in control, plus it's nowhere near departing a lane. I happens when stationary in stop and go traffic...

I’ve noticed that sometimes while driving with FSD I get a random “ping” sound and My steering wheel vibrates (haptic feedback). This is not a lane departure warning nor is it a ”hands on wheel” nag, it just randomly makes a noise and vibrates the wheel but then keeps on driving like usual. I...

Yep! The service center ended up replacing the high voltage contactor. After that it was as good as new. The service center quoted me as same-day repair, but then actually took a week which was a bit annoying because I didn’t get a loaner and it was hard to plan around but ultimately I got my...

*contactors

The issue is resolved. They ended up replacing only the contractors not the controller and all is good. Took just under a week to get my car back but pretty sure the actual work just took a few hours based on when my car was inside the shop instead of sitting out in their lo lt (monitored via...

The solution was replacing the contactor itself, not any hardware connecting to the contactor. Therefore, I think the contactor itself was defective. The Tesla service representative that I talk to when I picked up my car told me that the contactor they put in is better/newer than the contactor...

I assume DC since it only affected DC fast charging. Technician notes in the app said: Diagnosed and Replaced Fast Charge HV Battery Power Switch. And the invoice said: ASSEMBLY - FAST CHARGE CONTACTOR - HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY(1095145-01-J)

I got my car back today. They only replaced the contactor, not the controller in the end. From what I understand after looking at the service manual, the contactor can be replaced by accessing the battery penthouse which requires removal of a rear seat. So looks like the battery doesn’t need to...

Definitely << 5 days. Hmm... wonder if part of the delay was them ordering parts. Wish they would have let me keep my car until they were ready to go if that was the case. EDIT Btw thanks for that service link. Very helpful!

So Tesla originally said it was a one-day repair, which turned into 2 days, then they said they needed to keep it over the weekend, today they say they need to keep it until Wednesday. I'm pretty sure they didn't do any actual work on it until today because today the car finally changed its GPS...

It’s nice to hear this never happened to you over your 3 cars. It seems to me that either the issue was caused my wear and tear due to high currents (in which case I should expect it to happen again) or it was a one-off manufacturing defect and once its fixed it should be fixed for the life of...

I have a 2023 Model Y with 15k miles on it (10 months old). Last week when charging at a supercharger on a road trip I got a “Charging stopped“ message and could barely get home. I noticed that AC charging still worked so I was able to get into a service center in a few days. Even before my...

Brought my car in on Thursday. Before I arrived at the service center they presented me with a repair estimate which said they were replacing the contactor and charging module for DC fast charging issues. They said they were able to remotely diagnose the issue. They also said that since they...

The building manager told me to go ahead and use the outlet by my car so I did. Then 2 days later I was threatened with a huge fine if I did not stop using it. I stopped using it and put in a formal request with a proposal on how I'd pay for the energy usage. The condo board said they'd think...

Has everything been good since they replaced the defective part(s) in 2018? Just wondering if this is a problematic component or just a one off. I am going to a service appointment tomorrow morning.

I had an appointment scheduled for next week at the local Tesla Service Center here in Boston. This morning they texted me saying they don't have onsite supercharging for diagnostic purposes. They told me I should reschedule as to not waste my time, but it's unclear to me which locations do have...

I tried 2 supercharger locations (one 150 kW and one 250 kW) and tried 4 different bays at each location...

Exactly the same issue here on my 2023 Model Y Long Range. I was at 15% at a supercharger 100 miles from home and it would not charge. Worked fine the day before. Same symptoms as on this thread - not an issue with the supercharger itself and no amount of rebooting my car or trying different...

Agreed.

I do have a CCS adapter but there are no convenient CCS charging stations around here. I do use it sometimes on longer road trips when I can find a convenient CCS but my guess is that if DC charging hardware is defective, it won't charge at Superchargers or CCS...

I was poking around in service mode when I was stuck at the supercharger but I didnt' see any messages. Maybe I didn't look in the right place? I was looking at temperatures, voltages, and other things but nothing seemed out of the ordinary. My usual ski plan is a day trip on the weekend. What...

Yeah that sounds about right - not going too far. Guess I gotta say goodbye to my ski trip plans this weekend. Interesting theory about the communications between the car and supercharger. I hadn't thought of that. You'd think there would be more descriptive error messages or remote...

I drive a model Y which is just under a year old. I was out on a ski trip today, 150 miles from home with 15% battery remaining and I stopped at a supercharger like I do every few weeks. Never had an issue with superchargers until now. Everything was fine for the first 5% charge, then my car...

I understand perfectly why to never use the mile estimate in that way. In winter I drive with 75-80% efficiency most of the time (drive 80 miles and use 100 miles of “Tesla’s system range”). That said, the reason I started this thread is that maximum “Tesla system range” used to be 330 last...

I just got the …30.5.1 version yesterday

I do use the percentage display 99% of the time but switched today to miles out of curiosity... which is what spurred these questions. :)

My general workflow is, charge it up to 80% on Friday, go out of town on the weekend and drive a lot, charge when I'm out if I need to, and aim to return home at around 50%. That way I park it at home and let it sit at 50% most of the week, and charge again at the end of the week and repeat. My...

Not optimal? I've read plenty of threads on the subject and the consensus seems to be 100% charge on a road trip is not detrimental, (only letting a car sit at 100% is detrimental). Can you provide any links to publications to the contrary? So I've been very careful about charging to 100%...

First time Tesla owner here, and my car is about 10 months old. Is it normal for my Long Range Model Y to be showing no more than 317 miles (sometimes as low as 315) when charged to 100%? Occasionally I charge to 100% during a long road trip when I know it won't sit at 100% for long and may not...

Interesting so the reason I got .2 and not .4 might not mean I’m missing som bug fixes but instead .2 and .4 are different bug fixes for different models

I finally got it! 2023.44.30.2 is ready to download! I actually had no notification on my Tesla app, and was in between daily “manual refreshes” but I got a notification from TeslaFi saying the update was available. When I launched the Tesla app I can see it. Unfortunately I am visiting family...

Thanks for sharing. Sounds like the 24 hour limitation doesn’t mean too much… nada here…

Woohoo! It’s still a big mystery to me how and when the app pushes occur. I assume you hadn’t checked your car for 24 hours at that point.

Any time I have a chance to charge to 100% (don’t have charger at my parking space) and I expect the car to be down to 80% by the time i am home. So for example, lets say I’m away from home, stopping for dinner at a supercharger, and know that it takes 20% charge to get home. That’s when I’d...

Same. I thought it was the holiday update and didn’t realize it was just a minor release until I installed it and realized nothing had changed. Still waiting… Going on a long road trip tomorrow morning and was hoping to have an update but guess it wont happen now since I can’t check for updates...
