The crash.... just got the front angle camera footage from Tesla. Wonder why Hertz has bailed from Tesla? This incident comes in at $21,000 Canadian (so far!)

My car was hit, on the left front side, by a woman who came at me in an intersection. She was marked at fault; the bags didn't deploy but I had the sense to hit the record button and it clearly shows the accident. The damage doesn't look bad but the repair shop came in with a bill of $21,000+...

So I'd love to find the other two to find some commonality. What's up with this?

The best wifi name I've seen thought is "MomUseThisOne"

It has been this way since it was installed last fall - the SSID TeslaWallConnector__XXXXXX always appears. I don't think I have the password and will have to remove the cover to find it on the label - but before I do so - should I worry about this? Reading the docs, it seems it should disappaer...

Someday they won't call a software update a 'recall' but besides that - it's interesting they identify 2021.44.30.7 as the version that fixes the issue. I got that update way back on Jan 13 - and that was my second update that day! "The automaker says software update 2021.44.30.7 corrects the...

So the Charging Costs option finally appeared in my Tesla app. It looks like we can set home charging rates - given the option of Toronto Hydro or Ontario. If I choose the latter - I'm in Guelph - I'm given the option of choosing a rate plan - HOC-R ; HOC-RS, HOC-RSTOU or HOC-RTOU - and there...

No, never encounterd it, but with a 2021 M3 was expecting it to happen. So this was a bit of a relief.

Just a comment on this. No issues, -17C most of the way. Did a big pre-condition before leaving.

I had an update to 2022.4 last night. Don't know if this does anything to address the issue. I'll be driviing from Guelph to Collingwood area tomorrow in -17C - kind of ridiculous that I have to live in fear as to whether the car might fail or not.

I'm getting an update to 2021.44.30.8 now. Release notes say it might help deal with heat issue.

You might be right. I just drove from Guelph to Craigeith. -24C at the start, consistent to about -21c until coming downhill to a balmy -12C. The heat stayed fine the whole time. I preconditioned for about 30 minutes before departing in a garage. A good sign! (I won't talk about battery...

I will tell my wife these encouraging words if it goes off the rails. "Better to know, honey, than to be unaware!"

So do I dare to drive to Collingwood tomorrow, or do I condemn myself to my wife's 2010 minivan? I'm on 30.7.

I was super impressed with Kaltire KW as well. They know Teslas; very evident in the questions they asked.

Well, you wouldn't hear about it from them if they hadn't heard about it. They have now heard about it, and are now in the early stages. Kind of a circular logic thing you have happening here. https://www.iphoneincanada.ca/tesla/transport-canada-investigates-tesla-model-3-y-heat-pump-failures/

https://driveteslacanada.ca/model-y/tesla-heat-pumps-failing-in-extreme-cold-due-to-firmware-issue-heres-how-to-help-prevent-it-while-a-fix-is-developed/

Transport Canada now involved. https://driveteslacanada.ca/model-3/transport-canada-investigating-tesla-heat-pump-issues/

Wow. I got 30.6 at noon. And at this very moment, 30.7 is download to my M3. They must be racing to try to fix this thing.

I just got an update, and it seems to address the heat pump issue: https://www.notateslaapp.com/software-updates/version/2021.44.30.6/release-notes "This release includes changes to how the climate system works in vehicles with a heat pump. If you have experienced a lack of heat in your...

In Collingwood, with squalls. LOL for the idea of FSD during the winter. It will never happen.

I got 2021.44.30 yesterday. I'm headed up to Collingwood area on Thursday for skiing, and it looks like a very cold weekend is coming up. I've got a 240v/24a charger at the chalet and will leave it plugged in and will precondition quite a bit before driving. Will post here if anything happens.

It's epic. Your neighbors are going to love you. And I'm looking forward to the first Canadian who can program a light show with Oh Canada.

My experience in Toronto is that one of the door pillar cameras is often blocked by blinding sunlight at low altitudes as we approach winter, making "FSD" (which it is not) unusable. This and camera humidity and other things make the idea of vision-based FSD a pipe dream. I paid my money...

Gone. Story here. https://www.cp24.com/news/most-popular-ev-in-canada-tesla-model-3-no-longer-eligible-for-federal-rebate-1.5691201

My bad. I'm old.

In the news today. Of course, there are no details as to the type of plug, charging rate, etc. The FAQ on the site gives a 404 LOL. https://www.cp24.com/news/electric-vehicle-chargers-to-be-installed-at-most-onroute-rest-stops-by-summer-1.5688485 Anyone have any insight? I'm presuming it will...

Mine that I found on the site was an SR3+. Same car, I just paid more for white seats and 19" wheels.

I used this site, booked mark it with chosen filters, and hit it quickly. You have to move fast - cars often disappeaer within mintues. $100 to reserve. You lose your original $100 on your original order. https://tesla-info.com/

Not accurate at all. Mine bounced around every 2-3 days. I also tracked available inventory via one of the online tools. I saw a model come up in my area, but with better wheels and white seats. I paid the $100 to grab it, and paid for the upgrade. Better than waiting. If you want it sooner...

Thanks for the absolutely fascinating response. A fun part of this overall transition is training our minds to shift from MPG to these new measures. I can't profess to know much about this, but your details certainly provide me a pathway for understanding! Out of curiosity, you must have an...

Looks like this is exactly what I had: in this thread I had it multiple times the other day when driving home. Autopilot is essentially unusable for me as it stands.

yes and yes. thanks!

Hi all, I had a set of non-Tesla store winter tires installed - 18" instead of the 19" wheels I have. What setting would you choose for this? There seem to be no options other than the pre-defined Tesla options.

I am....

Thread title says it ... 2021.36.5.5 Nothing unusual on my setup, screen, etc.

Well, that's good to know! With all the hype, one would think all this would be in a more advanced state.

I'm in Canada, so have limited FSD. I was using Autopilot on a 2 lane road. Several times, while trucks were approaching from the other direction, the car would suddenly slow. Like, really slwo. One time it did so, quite violently, and disengaged. There was no report in the car of the...

Canada at this moment.

You could do it. Like others have said, you'll get stressed with potential range anxiety. When you have a big charge and it's telling you 24 hours to fill, you'll be stressed. Don't let this hold you back though; you've got lots of charging around you. That's why they put Netflix in the car...

LOL. Well, based on the picture, I think I'm your neighbor! Look up the street to #80, and say hello sometime LOL! Do I have the right place?

I can't answer you, but I'm in Guelph and so look forward to seeing you on the streets! Will follow this thread.

What Gulag said - SR+ is limited. 200 amp panel was needed for the main panel with a sub panel out to the garage. The old 100 amp was too full (big house). Plus, the garage panel will also be supporting a pool pump etc when they go in next year.

Due to labor and material issues (what else is new) my upgrade to a 200amp panel was delayed. It finally happened, though, and I've gone from charging at 9km/hr to 56km/hr at home. Whoah! That's some serious charging!

Ditto on Kaltire. I'm in Guelph and am dealing with the Kitchener location. Tiffany - manager - came across as knowing a LOT about the specificity of the Tesla install, the tire sensors, appropriate RIMS, tire options specific to Tesla (she spoke at some length about the winter tires Tesla was...

I've got FSD. I've also had zero updates in 7 weeks (see upthread), so there goes that theory.
