Has anyone who has done the DIY retrofit outlined in a different thread on this forum here tested this new OEM adapter at a 250kW capable CCS station? I'm curious to know if there is a difference in max charging rate between DIY retrofits and cars which come compatible from the factory.

Another location planned for Hood River opening before the end of 2022?

Entirely possible. Just happened to notice it, so figured I'd mention.

According to the EV-Hub website when you select the CCS 1 adapter, there is text that reads as follows: "THE PRODUCT WILL BE IN STOCK 31/03/2022"

Glad it still works at V3 speeds. Looking back at a few of my V3 charges where I was pre-conditioned and at a low SOC, it does seem like you tapered much faster here than I've seen in my 2019 Performance. I don't seem to drop below 200kW until around 40% SOC. Could be any number of reasons for...

I would also be curious to know if your setup works with the CHAdeMO adapter as well?

Definitely why I specified that this is doable in a LR Model 3 :cool: Interesting tip about Teslafi, was not aware of this. I see the option to edit the "kWh & Wh/m(km) Factor". Is this what you are talking about?

Real world example of when I drove from my home in Vancouver to the Pendleton supercharger in my 2019 Stealth with 18 inch Aeros and hubcaps on. The route goes through the Columbia River Gorge which very often has high winds. It's doable in a LR Model 3, especially the 2021 models, just watch...

New Year’s Day in Yachats OR

Shipped from Philadelphia to Portland OR for $1000 on open trailer. Just looked for local shipping companies in my area, chances are they have routes out of most major cities. Found a company based out of Seattle. Took 5 days from pickup to delivery.

The parking lot at this one is quite large. It wraps around the entire building, maybe space for semi trucks out back, couldn't quite tell. In the quick glances I got while driving by it looked like there was a lot of utilities/electrical hookups sticking out of the ground that still need to be...

I drove down to Smith Rock State Park this weekend and noticed a LARGE Love's gas station/travel plaza currently under construction just south of Madras. I didn't stop, and there didn't seem to be any of the typical visible signs of a Tesla charging station being installed...but there is still A...

Yep! Still zero issues 1 year and 4000 kWh later :)

Just getting back from our Grand Teton/Yellowstone trip...it was a great success! Here are a few details on the stops we made, and things we did in the M3: From Portland to Jackson: From Portland our charging stops were: Pendleton, Baker City, Boise, Burley, Idaho Falls, and then Jackson...

Thanks for the advice! We’ve decided on the Model 3. We will be leaving this Saturday morning! I’ll update this post once we’re done with the trip with some of our experiences and observations :)

Hey all! Wondering if anyone has any wisdom to share about navigating Grand Teton National Park and Yellowstone National Park in your Model 3. I am road tripping out there later this summer and have the option of a 2020 Subaru Outback or our Model 3. I'm experienced with trip planning and using...

My 2019 stealth came with 19s

Mine needed to be replaced after only 3k miles. Came along with these wonderful warnings and the car not being drivable for about an hour after work one day until it “charged up” enough for me to drive away. It was covered under warranty. I was treated very well at the SC.

For iPhone users, the Bluetooth key will not work if you force close the app.

I saw these two warnings one night after work. It took about 20-25 mins for the car to power up and become drivable. It functioned just fine for the next week while I waited for my appointment. The service center told me there was a lose connection for the low voltage battery at the battery...

Noticed the same thing when trying to search through it last night. Are there specific search params that you are entering to try and find results?

Would you mind posting a link to where you are finding this information?

Any info about this SC yet?

Apparently they found the issue. Bad low voltage connection at high voltage battery control module. Replaced connector and cable, also replaced 12v battery.

They've had my car for 2 days. Just got a text saying they need a few more days to continue to look into the issue. No description or further explanation was given. My guess is that if it were simply a bad 12v battery that it would be been pretty quick and easy to diagnose. Starting to get the...

Looks like a stealth performance model. I have one of those too :D

My girlfriend went to Panera today for lunch and said she didn't see any signs of construction in the Target/Panera parking lots yet.

Wondering if anyone ever got any info on this issue? My girlfriend got the 12v power reduced message last night when she was leaving work, followed by another message saying to wait while vehicle systems power up. After roughly 25 mins the vehicle did eventually power up and she was able to...

Pretty sure I found the spot. Not sure I like it, it’s right in the middle of the mall parking lot...will be interesting to see how it pans out.

The Salmon Creek super charger is usually quite busy. It’s probably one of the better spots to stop between Portland and Seattle. I usually stop at that Fred Meyer at least once per week and rarely do I see less than 4 cars there.

This looks like a great location! My girlfriend drives the M3 to Longview daily for work. Will have her grab pictures maybe once per week for some updates :)

It's right off of I-205 at the mall. Probably not the easiest spot to get to though since you have to deal with the mall parking lot. I'm honestly pretty neutral on the location, I think they could have picked much better and much worse locations for it. I think the biggest annoyance is going to...

Do you know if the Vancouver Mall location is under construction yet? I live only a few miles away and could swing by to check it out.

Another vote X-Ice tires. Owned sets for my last 3 cars (including my Model 3) and have always been very happy with their winter performance.

According to the electrician who did my NEMA 14-50 install who has done “countless” other Tesla specific installs in my area, Square D breakers seem to be more tolerant and cause fewer ground faults than any other brand of breaker he had used in an install. So far I have had zero trips while...

Correct, the car was sold to me as a 2019 Model 3 Stealth Performance. Good to know about the motor, thanks for the response!

September 2019

My 8th digit in VIN is a B and I have a stealth performance M3.

Fresh bath after all the rain in the PNW lately

North Vancouver and West Vancouver? You sure those aren't referencing BC?

The Sense Home Energy Monitor

Still haven’t gotten the update yet :(

Aren’t you the one who recently responded to one of my threads? You recommended that when you road trip in an EV you should have a plan B, C, D E.... Seems like that might have been all this person was trying to do by asking that question?

Thank you both for your insight! I did notice the destination charger at the chamber of commerce when looking at the map. Was hoping to be able to do this leg all in one shot without charging, but it’s nice to have that as an option. We plan on bringing our mobile connector with us with our...

Planning a road trip for this summer which would include a route from Bend OR to Boise ID through Baker City OR. Noticed that the stretch from the Bend super charger to the Baker City super charger is roughly 235 miles and includes some elevation gain. Was just wondering if anyone has done this...

Okay...do you have a link..?

Do you have a source for this?

Perhaps it’s used to mark your location on your iPhone map when you leave the car? In terms of unlocking and driving the car though, I’ve never had it enabled and the phone key has worked flawlessly.

I’d also like to mention that location services does not impact the phone key whatsoever. It depends on Bluetooth not location services.

Yes, “super diligent” ;)
