Anyone else have a HW error when charging with the home charger? Some Tesla reps say it's a normal firmware issue they are working on. Other reps say it shouldn't do this at all. I wish they'd all get on the same page and tell they same lie, oh, and fix my AC before winter.

ummm, I don't think I should have to go to the car 20 minutes before a trip and push some buttons. I don't think I should have to ruin my batteries in order to keep cool, or suffer performance. I'll try these recomendations, but I seriously doubt they will help with my issues. Any S...

Yeah, I had heard that some owners cut off the gfi to get it to work. Since I don't need it right not, I thought I'd wait a bit longer to see what, if anything, Telsa decides to do. Seems to me they should provide it without GFI and include a warning to only plug it into a GFI outlet. But...

A couple things I learned from my recent service visit: My AC is working properly, so I'm in for a hot summer. The MC 120 charger has problems for most owners and the cause/solution are a work in progress. I still love the car.:biggrin:

I have a Tesla as well as a Ford GT. The GT had an issue with bolts as well and Ford took a year to do anything, basically trying to wait until the cars were out of warranty, but they eventually fixed them. Tesla appears to be on the ball here, just wish they had fixed this when they were...

Yep, pretty sure that's it. I need to take it for a drive this weekend!

WOW, a glove box. THAT is a nice feature. My 2008 has no storage other than the tray. Does the AC in the 2010 work? That would be a nice upgrade too. :biggrin:

That video was full of lies and half truths. The idiot pointed at the PEM and called it the battery. It does NOT take 16 hours to charge and so on. Of course it will drift on wet pavement.

If you use sticky vinyl, use a blow dryer to heat it up when you remove it, it's much easier that way.

I can't see why they would change the acceleration, what would be the point?

Yes, I created a log to send to Tesla. They put a .tar file on the USB device in a folder VehicleLogs, which must already exist. Pretty simple process. .tar files are just a type of file compression, I decompressed it and there are several files, most are not simple text files, so I can't...

Anyone have info about how to read the log files created by the Tesla to the USB port?

I received my Roadster a few days ago. I was number 471 in line, my vin is #369.

My Tesla is #369 The AC issue is getting to be a real problem for me. It's better with the windows down that with the AC on. It really doesn't work well enough at all, maybe mine has a problem.

That is what I was starting to think, but then what's the difference between performance and Range. I assume a fully charged battery gives out 10-15% more power than one at 25%. At least that is how my RC cars seem to run. As for the Travel Charger. The Tesla folks told me to be sure to...

As for the spreadsheet, I could not find it. Why not do something like the fordgtforum has. Ford GT Registry I wrote that code and can do the same for the Tesla stuff if the Admin wants it.

I have not yet had the Tesla at full charge or in performance mode so I can't compare the Tesla the the Ford GT yet. Once I am able to get a full charge, I'll stage a race, however my GT has an upgraded pulley and an extra 100 horses, so I'll also need to find a friend with a stock GT. My...

Thanks guys. Just wish my charger was hooked up. This travel charger is about useless. :biggrin:

I just received my Tesla, arrived half charged which was nice, but a full charge would have been better! Man is this car a lot of fun. I have a few questions is other owners can please help. My big charger isn't installed yet, the electrician ran into issues, so all I have is the 15 AMP...

Locked in Hi, I just joined this forum. Locked in a few weeks ago and just learned that my Tesla is going into production and is 6-7 weeks away. My Tesla arrives just before the optional upgrades become available, so I guess I am lucky that I don't have to sweat over such expensive...
