@Davd120 Any more info you can share? Looking for something to replace the Conti's on my 2021 Y. The Continentals are harsh on bumps, not great in inclement weather. Very curious about these, even though they don't label them as EV tires.

I got stuck in Hobbs a few weeks ago because the CCS wouldn’t initiate. 2h40m later after charging at a NEMA plug in town I got from 9% to 35% and hobbled to Midlands TX at 50mph. I’ll go Santa Rosa - Lubbock next time and just drive slower for range. All that energy in SE NM and west Texas and...

Auto Teknica was my go to for years when I had the Jetta. I don't know what they are like now.

Vote every quarter! Tesla Supercharger voting

What a bummer that Tesla had the deadline for transfers but there's no FSD ready for the TM3.2

Dang!

Why unlikely? I've stopped at the Jackson, TN location (Casey Jones museum!) several times the past couple years. This past December it had been upgraded from 8 150 KW chargers to, wait for it... 24 250 KW chargers. My jaw dropped when I drove up to charge. The old 150s were piled up nearby...

According to this article from Dec 9 Tesla closer to coming to Durango after city OKs service contract with electric vehicle manufacturer

Yes, I wonder when that transition will start hitting non-Tesla FDCCs. Ford has announced availability of its CCS to NACS adapter, but I think they're the only one.

Any news on Durango?

Especially Bernalillo which has a Tesla service center! I expect it has to do as much with population density as anything. They've built out most of the interstate areas, though I am surprised that Taos and Durango still have no superchargers. Lots of Teslas now in Santa Fe and similar areas...

I saw that too. Looks like the CCS will be open in March. Fortunately, I upgraded my Y to the CCS chip last Summer. Still, I wish Tesla would get moving on these underserved parts of New Mexico and southern Colorado. Just a handful of superchargers in strategic locations would make a world of...

Any news on Clovis?

Can’t live without it if you want to travel in south east New Mexico or parts of southern Colorado like up to Durango and Ouray. I bought the part last Summer and installed it myself last Summer in my 2021 Y. Then I was able to visit Ouray and Carlsbad from Santa Fe. Installation took a...

I just ordered the Zero Winters for my LR Model Y. Won't be mounted until this weekend, but may report back later after the 500 mile break in period. Plenty of snow here in Santa Fe.

There’s a lot of it unfortunately. But it’s gonna take time to build the network and it’s growing fast

I don’t recall the exact number but about $150.

I stopped by on August 15 (Tuesday). No activity or sign of even starting yet.

I’ve successfully used CCS chargers a bunch of times in the past week. Allowed me to go places in NM and CO I couldn’t have. I’m very glad companies are adopting Tesla’s NACS in the future. CCS cables are heavy and unwieldy. I can’t imagine a little old lady managing these awful things.

I did this upgrade this morning. The hardest part was disassembling and reassembling the interior. Be careful with clips and the smaller electric wiring connector for the seat release. After I used service mode to reinstall the software. No problems. Tested on 120 volt charging, ChargePoint...

Dang, looks like good news!

Very needed! I had to drive up to Trinidad, CO last year to charge up for a drive east of Raton.

Would love an update on the tires

Will these SCs be available to the public or just customers coming in for service?

Same thing happened to me a couple months ago. I have free CCS charging walking distance to my house and STILL can’t use it

In any case, I think it's cool PlugShare is showing Tesla superchargers with CCS adapters built in--the Magic Dock.

cCs! 😃 CSS is cascading style sheets--a typo I often make myself. 🙄

I've got the adapter but maybe don't want to wait until H2 for Tesla to make the retrofit available for Model Ys. https://www.2muchsun.com/single-post/how-to-enable-ccs-adapter-support-on-model-3-and-y I came across this DIY. Anyone know for sure if installing myself will *not* violate the...

Answering the first two questions myself: * ECU from Tesla * Model Y needs no wiring harness (that was only earlier TM3s) Sounds like the warranty is OK ( How to enable CCS1 adapter support on older Model 3s and Ys now without waiting for Tesla ), but would love verification on that.

Since Tesla is now showing H2 of 2023 for Model Ys, I'm interested in doing this. * Where did you get your ECU? * Where did you get the wiring harness? * How does this affect the car's warranty? Cheers, Jamie

A good video I came across today on Cleantechnica (I highly recommend the site) about EV tires. Well done.

Tesla service won't go over the speed limit, 65 or 70 in I64 in Richmond, so even if they did drive it, they weren't going to hear the noise. Too bad... I'll be looking to some of those trouble-shooting ideas higher up the thread. Thanks for those!

I have the same issue: right front area noise that starts at about 70mph. If I'm near a semi or other large vehicle, the turbulence can make the noise disappear. Once I'm out of the truck's turbulence it's back. The noise isn't loud, but it is incredibly annoying. It just drills into my right ear.

Thanks. That is where I ended up going, but I was reluctant because in 2003 they completely chewed up a wheel of my then very new Jetta. They did replace it with a new wheel, but this is the first time I've been back since then! They were fine and the guy I dealt with was very familiar with Teslas.

Preferred places to get state inspection on your Tesla in Charlottesville, VA?

And so do the original Tesla covers. I had never noticed it until I compared them with the Rimetrix today. They are all the same. There are no left and right versions of either brand.

PS, my car is a late 2021 Model Y

Same here with my iPhone. It's a real problem. My ears are already damaged enough! I turn on a source from my iPhone and it doesn't matter what volume I had on the Tesla, it's maxed the next time. If the phone was previously selected, even the DING! when it reconnects is deafening. Come on...

I've got Metromile in Central Virginia. Nearly maxed out coverage for $40/month plus 5¢/mile. Metromile is only available in a few states currently. Lemonade Insurance is purchasing them.

It seems pretty ridiculous, but there is a global controller chip shortage, global shortages of other parts, and a completely screwed up global supply chain right now. Not to mention ridiculously high demand. Still, a friend of mine in my same town ordered his Y a week earlier than me and had it...

Ordered May 8, 2021. Last few days delivery estimate has been in about a two-week window for late August. This morning it changed to "October", five full months after my order. I mean, DANG.
