Anyone know if the station is open yet ? Photo from last post looked like it was ready 12 days ago.

Agreed. There are bollards each side of the conduit that seem to be inconsistent with a Tesla SC. Ood that PlugShare would list it as a 250kW TESLA SC although it may have been added by a hopeful Tesla PS user. There were no TESLA (or other) marked crates on site.

Valleyview, Alberta SC appears to be under construction. The site supervisor said the stations should be open by mid November. Great news for people traveling north to Grand Prairie from Edmonton. (Photos posted with permission from my wife ;))

$0.48 / kwh seems expensive until you consider the benefit of charge speed and the peak demand utility charges that I assume Tesla has to pay. Residential rates increased from $0.22 to $0.34 / kwh at my home in Alberta over the last 4 months

The things I rmiss about owning my 2012 Sig is the Sig Red color and rear wheel drive only with the traction off switch. Most everything else can be upgraded to a point but those 2 are unique and fun. Good luck.

I preferred those seats and I’m not a big guy

Scratch my last post. When a drove again shortly after my post, the lines were definitely there. Interestingly just prior to my post, I was able to turn autopilot ON in snow covered road conditions but with wheel tracks clearly visible. Autopilot has definitely improved to the point where it...

My MS LR+ is using a higher percentage of the battery for the heater, which makes sense considering that the motors are more efficient but the heater is not. I assume the battery is still around 100kwh. The reported Wh/ mile remains low but does not reflect the overall battery consumption. So...

Yesterday’s update v2020.48.30 0409112887bad Auto pilot roadway lines are no longer showing.

My trips have been short approx 6 miles but the one time parked outside I was charging well before I left. I didn’t have the cabin heat on but I assume the battery would be warm. Lost 12 miles of range on reaching my destination. Even trips starting from my heat garage are using double the...

Interesting finding this thread 2 years later. Seems my experience with range loss on my 2021 Model S LR+ is not new. My 2012 MS performance never lost more than 20% range but this new car can easily lose 50% or more at -18C / -1F. No more Range Mode on the LR+ so I assume the only way to get...

Clipper Creek 90 provided 69 amps with 2012 MS dual chargers. I see the LR+ specs indicate 48 Amps. 40A = 20% less. No biggy, just takes longer Road conditions were bare & dry. Auto heating setting is much better than 2012 MS. was set at 70F. Probably should just turn the heat down. I'm...

Don't know if it is the new software on my Model S LR+ but 1) Only get 40 Amp charge rate on a 90 Amp circuit ( 208 V ) 2) Use 102 miles range to drive 58 miles @ 0 F deg. Wind not a factor. (too bad range mode is gone) Could the FSD be sucking up all the juice ?

I can’t seem to find Range Mode anymore or has it been gone for a while ?

No proximity sensors ( backup or forward ). charge port manual close manual folding mirrors

KAL TIRE

chrome delete ? span the letters

2021 Model ? only has "Dual Motor" on the passenger side trunk. I honestly don't understand how that is more important than the model if people should ask. Better to have nothing IMHO so I'll have it removed when wrapped.

Looks like a catastrophic failure to me. How fast were you driving when it happened ?

I had similar symptoms with my 2012 MS. Turned out to be a HV battery issue. Hope they find it for you

I believe so. Factory alignment has been an issue in the past and I understand alignment can go out during shipping depending on how it's secured. Pots holes are a problem around here too but I'm still think a $150 on an alignment is well spent from day one.

$10k spread is huge. I’m suppose to take delivery in the next 10 days. I got the $4k off but still... should try to pay in USD

As suspected, alignment was out significantly which explained the early bad tire wear. For $150 it’s worth saving $1500 worth of tires. Should have done this right away after receiving the car.

Can anyone recommend a wheel alignment business for the Model X In the Edmonton area

I'm going to miss my Sig Red. Just sold it last week to someone who is a first time TESLA owner and loves the Sig Red. With the recent new MCU upgrade, re-mfg battery and 2 year old motor, the car should provide many more years of enjoyment. I'll still visit this thread from time to time and...

Thanks, your comments are making me having second thoughts........... ;)

Seems the Tesla website didn’t get updated ? since I had the upgrade installed last week. The upgrade makes the car feel new again.(minus autopilot) Hopefully you’ll have it soon.

Thanks. I believe there was actually was another one before mine here in Alberta that I remember seeing. Not sure if it’s still on the road. I’m ....2093. I really enjoy the car. You can still have a little “fun” with the 2 wheel drive. Hopefully someone who has never owned a Tesla or likes to...

I've added some photos to the Marketplace thread, if anyone is interested. Thx

I posted some photos. I'm the original owner, since Dec, 2012. Yes, MCU infotainment upgrade, LTE (great improvement from the original, internet actually works in my area now )

Thanks, Here are some photos. I'll add some more from the other side.

I had just finished charging to 90% and after getting into the car I was suddenly getting error messages which I thought was the 12 V battery at first. Tesla confirmed there was an issue with the HV battery but did not say why. Here are my battery stats: Could still charge to approx. 390 -...

With some reluctance I have decided to sell my 2012 Model S Signature Red P85. I'm the original owner, have enjoyed the car immensely. It would be nice to see the car stay in Alberta, so I thought I'd post a link to TMC Marketplace here in case anyone was interested. 2012 Model S P85 Signature...

With some reluctance I have decided to sell my 2012 Model S Signature Red P85. I'm the original owner, have enjoyed the car immensely and mostly driven summer months on paved roads only. It has a recent full service inspection, motor was replaced ( 2018) and battery (2020) so it should be good...

How important is the aircraft landing weight ? I assume the used fuel during flight would help with landing and stopping the plane. Is this a small factor to consider ?

Sounds like it could be pebble in your brake caliper.

So ......made a new appointment again this morning with the TESLA App for April 28th.. The first email from TESLA confirmed the appoint time and location at the requested address which has a mechanic shop with hoist. ( used by TESLA for other owners in 2013-2014 ). Then received a second...

Not busy in Edmonton ! -22c and 3 feet of snow left in back yards.:( Essentially, tire changes should be essential... one would think.

Looks like you are quoting a 2013 , 7 year old post. Things have definitely changed

Quite disappointed with Tesla service lately. Needed something as simple as new wiper blades for the Model X and could not even talk to anyone to order them. There is not response to the iPhone Tesla appointment scheduler. Had some minor warranty work and no reply to confirm if it required a 3...

Makes sense now. Strangely the noise stopped after my battery was drained to 90%. I had forgotten about this, but I believe Telsa recommends to only fully charge the battery just before you leave for a trip. Presumably the running pump would not noticeably lower your range of a longer driving...

Warranty ?, or if not, would you mind if I ask how much $ ? My extended warranty has expired.

I think you are correct about the pump. Since I first posted, the battery is down 25 miles and I drove 2.8 miles . Usually all systems shut down during a reboot but the sound persisted during my latest reboot attempt this morning. Could it be the BMS cooling pump running on low ? For me it...

I recently suspected a higher than normal vampire drain on my 2012 Sig Model S battery. For a test the car was parked inside (60F) , state of charge 90% and computers rebooted. There was a faint electric motor sound coming from the front of the car that the reboot did not clear. Battery lost...

3/30/20 ? order placed 3 days ago on a date in the future ? Agreed, that is bizarre

Cloning the old sensors to new ones is what worked for me on my old 2012 Model S. The old ones had a very weak signal but still readable. Never did see the Rest button software update

Anyone having issues with "TPMS failed"" error message when switching to winter tires after version 10 was installed on 08/2014 and older Model S, let me know. I found a solution. TPMS reset on V10

I think you are correct !. My original Baolong sensors were about 6 years old. The MaxiTPMS pad did read them after a short period but compared to the new Autel sensors, the reading was immediate and at a greater scan distance.

UPDATE: After 3 months of looking at the "TPMS System failed" message , my winter tires now have the newly cloned Autel 433MHz sensors (s/n copied from my summer tires), ... error message on my 2012 Model S gone. 4 - Autel TPMS senors $149.00 (eBay) Autel MaxiTPMS PAD $64.00 ( Amazon ) - for...
