    Temperature at breaker

    Thanks for the replies. I just wanted to know if other folks have felt their breakers during charging or measured temps to compare what is normal. Sounds like it's normal though.

    Temperature at breaker

    Hi all, I've been charging my car via my dryer 14-30 outlet and a Splitvolt. Temperatures everywhere (the cable, mobile connector brick, Splitvolt) seem fairly normal, a little warm, but nothing that is alarming. However, the breakers themselves are hot when charging after a while. At 24A...

    After about 40 mins at 24A my breaker was a little over 126 deg F at the edge where the neutral bus bar is.

    I would go for a 50A circuit but my panel is fully unfortunately. I have 100A service and according to the electrician it would probably cost 15-25k to the utility to trench and expand to 200A. He said they could upgrade me to a 125A panel with more capacity as an option. Thanks though, am...

    I feel like we need a post delivery Tesla noob thread to discuss things. For recent delivery folks, I'm charging off a 30A 14-30 dryer outlet, and when charging the breaker got hot. Not burning, no smell, no noise, but at the cusp of being uncomfortable. I'm a little worried since the house and...

    Delivery / Service Issues (panel gaps, delivery delays / issues / Service problems etc)

    Got my car on Wednesday, now noticing a bunch of squeaks and rattles. Need to hone in on where they're coming from

    For folks who got their car recently, when you pop the frunk, does it always feel like a damn explosive is unlatching it??

    What a day. Get a text from Tesla asking if I want my car today, and then 3 hours later it's in my driveway! Car is fine from a build perspective. The hood is slightly misaligned, might be a slight larger gap on one side but it's not really noticable. Bigger issue is where the rear quarter...

    My home delivery is scheduled for tomorrow, but I just got this text Does this mean they're going to deliver today? I said yes, of course LOL Edit: THEYRE DELIVERING IT TODAY AHHHH

    Same here. I texted them and they said I could pick it up, but it would be contactless and exactly the same. I figure that anything that happens to the car on the way from the factory to my driveway isn't my liability, and I don't have the leeway to decline delivery right now as I need a car...

    Alright! So after texting the SA a few times I'm reassured with home delivery, since it's basically the same thing as contactless pick up. Going to be meticulous to log any potential damage...the drive from Fremont is maybe 25 minutes...hopefully the delivery team doesn't have too much fun on...

    I have a delivery appointment!!! Looks like they want to deliver to my house on the 19th. Is it possible to pick up instead, so I can inspect the car?

    Got a VIN! OD 03/04 White/White EDD May 19 - May 23 This doesn't give me a lot of time to sort out DCU financing...I'll probably just finance through Tesla and refinance ASAP.

    Hoping you have a different experience, but I ordered at the very beginning of March with a supposed April delivery date. Still waiting! I think 3 months is realistic nowadays.
  16. C

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    As it is, the very first EDD I got after the original April estimate might end up being the most accurate. The day after my "April" delivery order, they estimated May 29 - June 26. I was dismayed at the time, but now it's looking like that they actually knew at the onset.... All the April and...

    On Reddit, seeing LR orders who ordered after me in the same area, same exact config, get their VINs 😅 Feels bad, the only reason I went for the Performance was the supposed faster delivery. Fingers crossed they come through soon.

    This my 4th time going into a EDD window with no VIN. Order date March 4th! No idea what's going on

    I've been in my two week window twice now, without VIN, and each time it got pushed back 🥲 My first 11 day window is tomorrow, and no VIN so expecting another push.

    When did you get your VIN?

    Supposedly the paint isn't as...robust, primarily due to manufacturing limitations in California (environmental reasons). Also the front end being somewhat flat seems to make it a magnet for rock chips. Also, it seems like for the average Tesla buyer, this is their first "luxury" car purchase...

    Not so fast! The car could open your garage and drive itself back to Uncle Elon 🤣

    Congrats! Great news. Something was definitely weird about that given your VIN being assigned so long ago. Hope all is well with the car when you pick it up!

    Even April Delivery seems so long ago. And here we are halfway through May. At this rate I won't be surprised if I get the car in June 🥲

    I'm sure there's a market for selling individual uberturbines based on the amount of reddit posts I see from people curbing their wheels 🤣 I have no idea why it seems like there are so many folks who have difficulty parking lol.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Fremont for me. Fingers crossed. Pretty much why I ordered the Performance. Needed a car in April as that was when my BMW lease was ending. The day I ordered was when the delivery estimate moved from March to April, so I assumed I would have it by end of April at least. Ah well.

    Exactly the same thing for me. May 15- May 27. Hopefully a good thing? We still need VINs tho...

    Well, that's promising. Hope it's based on real info and not just the SA making up a story. 😅 That's really frustrating, sorry to hear that. If I was in your shoes I'd be going crazy, and would probably be calling them every day! It's like they expect you to put your life on hold until they...

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Yeah they've been dodging my questions as well. I'm Fremont pick up, OD 03/04, current EDD is May 13-27. I've asked and they just say "refer to the estimate in your app". Real helpful when I've had two two week windows already get pushed, and I'm on the cusp of the third doing the same!
  34. C

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Cases like that are probably folks refusing delivery or missing their windows, I have to imagine. Otherwise...well, I don't want to think about it.

    2 days to my 3rd two week window. No VIN. Expecting a push...again. OD 03/04 which is annoying.

    Model 3 Performance Waiting Room [2020-2023]

    Congrats!!! My OD was two days after you. Hoping they get to me soon lol. I sold my car 2 weeks ago and have been relying on my wife's car 💀 I also need the car so I can go to work...supposed to be hybrid but no one is asking questions yet LOL.

    Crossing my fingers for more Bay area deliveries 🤞 Re: the suspension discussion, Out of Spec reviews recently drove a brand new 2022 Performance and they agreed it felt softer and more comfortable than prior year models. These are folks who have owned and driven Teslas for quite a bit. Nothing...

    Yup. OD 03/04 here, my third two week window is in 3 days, still no VIN, so I'm guessing it's getting pushed again. Pretty annoying. I'll be surprised if they come through at this point.
