    TESLA OWNERS MEET near MARKHAM & RICHMOND HILL area (HWY 404 & Major Mack)

    Thanks to those who setup the event. It was nice to see such a range of new, and less new cars and meet all of you. Can't wait for the next one.

    Major unfair changes at Pearson Airport for EV charging!

    SOME Amex Platinums, not all. The corporate platinum, for example, is excluded.

    P85D smoother, less front motor whine after 6.2

    Turns out they couldn't solve it at the SC, but have ordered me a replacement lower drivers seat. So the clicking remains, for now.

    P85D smoother, less front motor whine after 6.2

    I'm still at the SC, but they found the source of the problem pretty quickly. The framing under the driver's seat needed some repositioning and tightening. They seemed to feel this had come up in a few other early examples of the next gen seats, so perhaps yours is the same.

    P85D smoother, less front motor whine after 6.2

    I have the clicking too, but haven't found others with it before this post. My car is going in for service next month (soonest available) and they say they'll try to figure it out. Shrug.

    Tunein Favorites Gone

    Interesting that this feature just plain disappeared. I've noticed it too, and have been scratching my head trying to figure out when or why it is gone. Turns out the recent upgrade did it here too. Sigh.

    Lights flicker when I finish charging off HPWC@80a

    I think you guys are right, in that this only seems noticeable on those lights I have on dimmers. I'll do some tests this weekend to be sure, but as I have most of the lights in my house on UPB enabled dimmers, it seemed like it was all the lights flickering. As well, this only happens when I...

    Canada - Are you guys mounting your front license plates?

    Thanks. If it were local I'd probably argue it, but it's not worth a trip to *hopefully* get the fee reduced.

    Lights flicker when I finish charging off HPWC@80a

    I've got all of the above, but it's actually the incandescent pot lights that I notice flicker the most. The UPS I have on my media server in the basement alarms every time as well. I'll call the power company.

    Lights flicker when I finish charging off HPWC@80a

    Thanks - I'll call the utility and ask them to address it. We're dealing with freezing rain here tonight, so they've got their hands full restoring power for now. I'll save my whining about flickering lights caused by my electric car for after that! :)

    Lights flicker when I finish charging off HPWC@80a

    I did a bit of forum searching, but I didn't find anything similar. When I stop charging my car (P85d) off my HPWC @ 80a, the lights in my house flicker. It doesn't seem to harm anything, but unstable power isn't a good sign. I had my HPWC professionally installed by Tesla's recommended...

    Canada - Are you guys mounting your front license plates?

    I didn't even know you could do that. Does anyone know if this is this like a parking ticket, in that it doesn't stay on my driving record - or does it stay with me? I'm not sure it's worth taking an afternoon off to drive to Barrie to deal with for $100, but if it's going to stay on the...

    Canada - Are you guys mounting your front license plates?

    I've had my P85D for just over a week, and don't have the front plate installed. I drove up to Collingwood for the day today (from Toronto), and got stopped for it TWICE. The first time, on the way to Collingwood, just warranted a warning. The second stop (on the way home) got me a ticket. I...

    Powerstream SAE charger at 400 & MajMack

    Thanks for all the feedback. I hit PowerStream up on Twitter too, and they confirmed the same, although suggested that Chevy Volts could use the CCS connector as well. With the new Volt being introduced in the next few weeks, it will be interesting to see if this becomes more common. I stopped...

    Powerstream SAE charger at 400 & MajMack

    It doesn't look like this ha been discussed here: PowerStream goes public with high-speed EV charging | PowerStream eStream Powerstream (power co for Markham, Vaughan, etc) has introduced some free chargers at their head office at highway 400 near Major Mack. Most sound like they're J1772, but...

    Model S battery pack upgrade *will* happen, per Elon Tweet

    It's amazing to see how we're all adapting to read this stuff from multiple angles. I thought the same thing(s) when I read it.

    Hand wash, or drive through?

    I'm wondering the same. I am waiting for my P85D (late February) but currently have an S4 that was damaged by those detergents. The 'aluminum look' side mirror caps turned hazy from the wash detergents, and there was no way to return them to the original look. I've long suspected that the higher...

    60 vs 85... the same now?

    That's an interesting point, but I haven't heard any comments on their willingness to swap a 60 with an 85. That would be great if they would. I wonder if there is ever a case where a 85 would decide they wanted a 60 temporarily. Weight savings for an afternoon of autocross? :)

    Hand wash, or drive through?

    Maybe this has been discussed, but I'm curious what the group tends to do to wash their Model S. Do you prefer a hand wash, or a drive through car wash? My old car would scrape the bottom on the tracks pretty badly, so I had to avoid the pull through style wash, but with the variable suspension...
