Separate names with a comma.
Maps are Google but the actual routing is not. It's a vendored and tweaked product to my understanding. The nav routing is definitely not good in...
Sorry, my bad for not explaining more. I'm not saying there's a driving scenario in which it'll pull 3.5kW, but there's plenty of ways it can use...
I'll be able to get you an answer this week probably! This'll be an expensive experiment. For those temperatures, the cabin is comfortable enough...
#3 is the obvious recommendation from the outside, especially if convenient. This problem is only going to get worse as the battery approaches...
Near the phone charging cradle, where a passenger might accidentally hit the button when placing/removing a phone...
Your post made me think of it, I just realised Tesla is also partly responsible for the rhetoric on the car being "more efficient" when warm. It's...
If it's a pretty quiet hum, it's probably just the coolant pumps. Basically, these run whenever the car is awake (as basically anything needing...
I should probably add: Yeah, maybe they're just doing this to drum up discussion. But at least for me, that has backfired. I trust Tesla less...
No, I never want this in Model 3. Less because of the wheel, more because of the lack of stalks and replacement with touch buttons. Model 3...
Car standby and battery heating are absolutely not peanuts in the grand scheme, especially for short commuters. But that's why I needed to know if...
It's not the new octovalve's fault actually. It's the thermal mass of that 1000lb battery - it takes a LOT of energy just to raise it a few...
This. But... I think a lot of people get misled into thinking it costs nearly nothing to charge an EV compared to gas. That rhetoric runs wild on...
I somewhat admire you folks who feel the need to wipe down their car after every drive. In SoCal, where I presume there's hardly any dirt on the...
@MarsOrBust in addition to the above link I'm happy to do and explain the math for you given the following details: Average summer high/low temps...
It matters sort of like lifetime MPG or L/100km would, but in very different ways to the point that it would be misleading to make any statement...
Interestingly, following the source to the Chinese website does show the original source as saying "The poster claimed that a Tesla Model 3 caught...
Nuances indeed! Turns out cars are complicated. When my wife had a 120km (75mi) daily commute, the standard 120V NEMA 5-15 was actually (barely)...
It does not, however some services can give rough visibility into that with "charging efficiency". As always though, the data they have access to...
I really gotta finish my Tesla guide to the cold. You might see a lot of people that plug in in at 10F and it starts charging right away, yes....
I don't notice many issues in town. On routes between towns though... it does the strangest things. When they introduced the feature, it started...
In reverse, the rear motor really isn't doing anything normally (for AWD models). It's just in the "coast" or "active torque sleep" mode, if I may...
You're on the right track, you're feeling the variable torque basically. Unlike an ICE vehicle that has a lot of rotational momentum to smooth out...
True, which I did at first. It was too distracting to need to hit that though, there's a lot of kids on my street and I didn't like having to look...
Waste heat from driving with a headwind will result in keeping about a 20C-25C delta on temperatures. That is, while driving in -20C, I would...
80mph interstates also exist (129km/h), my main point was in regard to the 150km/h-160km/h suggestion
240V. With 120V, fixed losses during the charging process make 120V charging very inefficient. Not only does everything (pumps, on board charger)...
I think it would be hard to present that data in a way that makes the phantom drain (standby) portion obvious and in contrast with locomotive...
This is a situation where a wiki makes a lot more sense. Does this forum have any sort of collaborative post feature?
That's not just a single MOSFET on the part description. Tesla does not (nor does any other modern car company) do component-level repair on the...
The error is using only amps as both a power and energy measure. Energy (kWh) : A quantity, e.g. like gallons of gasoline. Power (kW): A rate of...
OP's SR+ does not have a front motor
See:
This is likely an artifact of the Hold stop mode issues. At low speeds the car doesn't seem to properly understand what's going on, which is...
It's a weird one, likely a faulty VC (VCFront or VCRight?) if I were to bet. They're cheap-ish and easy-ish to replace. Someone needs to actually...
Sure, but one of OP's main complaints was needing to use third-party 50kW stations, which definitely changes the math on that. Such high speeds...
I'm not sure which part you looked at to get 27kWh, can you clarify? That changes the response a little bit, but not much. The trip meters will...
First time around in 2019, the difference between ICBC and BCAA was pretty negligible. At renewal though, it went way up. I guess ICBC realised...
Interesting that both yours and the Car & Driver one failed like this during winter. Failures while parked are weird, but the car could've been...
Yes, Tesla is having a bad time getting service to grow along with sales. But Apple as an example of great customer service? Please, I never want...
Maybe they picked it because LTT is an enormously popular YouTube channel with a broad audience, unlike most Tesla review videos. OP states their...
Nothing in the car to do this, no. It's possible they can connect and copy it to their phone perhaps. Or they just happen to have an extra USB...
I mean... honestly none of his points were really invalid, and many were positive. Many of us here would agree with them. Of the...
I haven't watched anywhere near all of Bjorn's videos on the subject. The one I recall was not below freezing, but was near it in the morning. If...
For Superchargers, it usually the city or town and/or business site that engages with Tesla. I'm not exactly sure how they go about that, but for...
These appear to be isolation faults, but I'm not sure of which kind exactly. Something of some voltage (maybe high voltage) is touching something...
I'm confused. Does it beep or show an error on the screen at all explaining what's wrong? It normally communicates any problems very well. But...
You're making a very strong claim Tesla has never made when all the evidence points to it being for comfort/feel reasons, especially since this...
If it's the thread I think you're talking about, here's the explanation: confounding factors. Most of us aren't running good science here, myself...
Alright, I'll try to address these point by point. I have a lot of winter frustrations too. Consumption of 210Wh/km: You were going 130km/h....
I just realised a big detail I left out in my last post, which was more important than I thought now that I've done the math! The car can draw...
