Separate names with a comma.
I suggest you have someone look at your logs to see if that sheet is consistently running hotter than the others. If it is then somebody should...
I can't recall the exact delivery sequence but there were a lot of deliveries out of sequence at the time for various reasons. You were very close...
Your records are correct TEG. I made the original delivery myself. I think it was the metallic black, which would explain why it looks a bit like...
Check with Pete Kang at Works. WORKS-About The website doesn't say anything about Tesla but Pete has extensive Roadster experience and might...
I laugh out loud every time I hear your wife in that video too, Mark. I wish you luck in finding a good home for your Roadster. Thanks for sharing...
I think they just desired to do the right thing for early customers. There wasn't an easy solution, they continued working on it, and came up with...
I agree Doug_G. Just make sure you are charging at a high enough rate that the car has time to sit at full charge and balance. When people use the...
asgard - you are generally correct, though Tesla upgraded a few prototypes from 1.0, or 1.5, to 2.0 spec. It requires a serious overhaul of the...
The pic is from my blog ;-) Re: P1 Arriving Now! :) | Tesla Motors Elon and JB do both have early Roadsters. I'm not sure that Elon is still...
Most definitely yes. I do wonder why they can't tell us by how much the weight has increased though.
wiztecy - I would like to make sure my support comes through properly. While I am not going to put down a deposit, I will buy a 3.0 battery...
Count me in as a signature, but I won't put down a deposit. The lack of communication around this issue doesn't give me confidence. Why should I...
Very cool dna4life. Congratulations. Anyone know how many Roadsters have exceeded the 100,000 mile mark?
Six - The big battery does not work with the 1.5 powertrain (first 500 cars). Tesla does have a replacement battery available, but it is at the...
Thanks tdelta1000. I am eager to get on the road.
I now have Signature #54. It is currently bricked in my garage, awaiting a transplant. If only the new big battery worked...:frown:
Here it is roadster109: http://www.teslamotorsclub.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=33628&d=1382412344 I had one installed a couple of months ago.
Creep was designed as a safety feature. Early prototypes did not have the creep and it was really easy to walk away from the car while still on...
The dead pedal cannot be easily removed. It is bonded in place and requires cutting to be removed. I have driven without the dead pedal and if...
Balancing isn't the only thing to consider. Even with a perfectly balanced battery you may see a different range estimate when charging is...
Balancing and Tesla Engineering Waiting more than an hour doesn't really do anything for you. The hour allows the systems in the car to...
benji4, You should charge to full in Standard mode and let the car sit for an hour ideally. As Lancelac stated there is balancing that occurs in...
It is a complicated equation that would require long discussion, debate, and modeling to come up with the correct answer given a specific...
Battery Cooling dpeilow, Battery cooling turns on. Even if it is cold outside the battery will heat up on a long drive. Charging and...
I was told the same thing vfx. :wink: Zak
The hard top may just scare people because it looks more solid and permanent. I can't think of any reason why it would be any more difficult and...
Hey TEG, Are you referring to getting in and out with the hard top on? It really isn't any different than the soft top. They have nearly...
Tire Squeal It is possible that the Tango is making the tire noise. It certainly sounds primarily like the Tango powertrain in the video. Zak
