I have an HPWC that was installed and commissioned (by me) for 48A. It has been working flawlessly and consistently for almost five years with my Model 3. I've been able to charge at any rate that I set... until recently. Now it seems to forget my chosen charge rate setting for this location...

Asking for Model 3 but of course this pertains to any of the cars. I need some new plastic clips...the ones that hold the cover down above the frunk that covers the HVAC air intake and the 12V battery etc. The wipers are just above. I don't know what to call this part, nor the clips. And while...

August 2018 Model 3 AWD, now with FSD computer upgrade. On firmware 2020.20.12 When TeslaCam and Sentry were introduced, it was a rocky start. But things smoothed out, and it eventually started working reasonably well, if still a bit sketchy. I started with a fast 64G thumb-drive that worked...

Greetings! In the first month of ownership, my 3 was broken into, and the trunk accessed by lowering the rear seatbacks after breaking a rear window. I began to purchase all of the seat-locking solutions, and eventually made my own to suit my usage. I now have a "better than new" set of...

When I was trying to decide what to do with my aero covers, I desperately wanted to see images from those who had done it. There were precious few at the time, so I thought I'd toss this up there to help others. I bought a second set of covers and painted one set to match the white, and one in...

Help! After all this time, I feel like a newbie sometimes. I almost always have "walk away" lock on, since locking the car otherwise is a bit of a PITA. But when I'm home fooling with it a lot (detailing or installing some new doo-dad) I want it to stop auto-locking on me. So I get in, go to...

I no longer need the spare adapter that I purchased. It has been used once for testing. Otherwise it is new. It is this one: SAE J1772 Charging Adapter And I'm selling it for $75 plus $7 priority shipping anywhere in the CONUS.

Greetings. Does anybody have a source for the center caps that fit ON the aero cover? Not the cap that fits in the wheel after the covers are removed. The center caps are glued to the cover and are made of impossibly thin metal (like a beer can). I've tried to remove them with a ton of heat...

Ok, so I survived the file corruption issue of the DashCam. Seems to be working well now (red button on the icon remains lit constantly now). BUT! I'm still getting actual corrupt files. Googling around has me believe that I'm the only one?? Specifically my left "repeater" camera files are...

I swear I've seen a thread on this before... and now can't locate it. Wife and I each have an iphone. When I'm driving, I want the audio connected to my phone (for calls and music). When she is driving, she wants it connected to her phone. Is this always a manual operation (tap BT symbol on...

I'm going through my EV brochure collection, and thinning the heard. Before I recycle, I wanted to check and see if anybody is interested in having these brochures. I think I have three. You can see both sides of it here. I also have this hand-made calendar. I can't recall the history of it...

I wonder if anybody has an idea of what might be going on... My car went into service due to a regular blank screen.. I left the car with V42.3 (and Nav on AP worked), and picked it up with 42.8 (and Nav on AP is no longer an option). In the meantime, there were apparently several firmware...

Now that I see how useful the sub-trunk is... and how I am using it...I'd really REALLY like a full liner for that space. It would drop in, be a form-fit of that cavity. Like custom all-weather floor mats for the trunk... with full-height sides. Add handles, and you can bring this thing inside...

OK, so I see Tesla officially says 129 foot-pounds for all of their wheel lug-nuts. And in all my years of working on cars, lug torque has been around 80 pounds. Mid-80's max. And a friend just took delivery of a Model 3, went to change the wheels and was not only shocked to see the Tesla spec...

Howdy, I know that the Model 3 interior lights are significantly too dim for the job (especially the trunk!). And my buddy installed the RPM units (brighter and cheaper than all the others, they claim). And they are bright, and they do snap right in. And yet... two of his five have now failed...

I guess the Weathertech cargo mats are relatively new on the market. The Tesla mats have been out for a while. I've seen the Tesla mats and they seem pretty good. But the Frunk mat from tesla is $110 vs the Weathertech's $70. The rear mats from both companies cost the same $130. I'll likely get...

I'm the guy who was waiting for Smart Air Suspension. Was hoping to see the promised "tied to AWD" bit that Elon mentioned.... but I'm done waiting. So AWD with coil springs for me, I guess. So now I need a way to adjust the rear of the suspension to carry more crap. Here's the thing: when I...

Is there a post somewhere that I'm missing that defines all the abbreviations and terms we throw around with wild abandon? I've been following Tesla closer that your average lamp, and I still have to stop and work through so many of these acronyms and abbreviations. I can only imagine that...

Greetings, Model 3 brain trust. I cannot find the answer to what currently vexes me.... I am a line-stander who's watched online reservation holders getting their email invites ahead of me for a few weeks now. Then, after my heart-to-heart with Elon on twitter this weekend, he figured out how...

Hey look! Here I am charging by the first Tesla charger that I know of that's installed in an open, public lot. Of course I'm charging from the small paddle inductive that is behind the Tesla unit, but hey, I'm *really* close. :biggrin: The top four pictures here were taken today. There are...

I notice in the FAQ (check it out, I actually read it!) that there's an entry on how to quickly see what's new. You choose "New Posts" or "Today's Posts." And that's what I'm used to seeing in other forums that I frequent. Am I blind to them here, or do they simply not exist? If the latter...

The owner of this site asked if he could use some of the info from my EVnut site, and also invited me to comment on his Blogs. QED, a commenter from this blog is an example of the worst case of "status-quo-itis" that I've seen in a long time. His contention that "if it won't work for me, it...
