    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    I bought these and they’re great but I had to go with 20’s in front and I did 25’s rear. The 15’s wouldn’t flush but my wheels rub on tight turns when suspension is set to low.

    OEM CCS adapter now available to order in North America, Retrofit for older cars coming in 2023

    When I try opening your link for adapter it goes to app but no adapter in the app.

    CCS Retrofit Availability (2023)

    I had appointment for my S 100 today but they changed to next week claiming parts aren’t in. I heard they lowered the price to $175 for the adapter but so far my estimate is still at zero.

    CCS Retrofit

    So I had an appointment for today but they changed to next week because part is not in. I have a 2017 and on the estimate it shows no cost but I heard the adapter is now $175. Does anyone know what they do for this? I thought it was just a software update but why would they have to come out for...

    Battery seems to going fast

    That’s what I said.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Really? I read the fast chargers shorten battery life.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Yes I charge to 80% all the time and only drive 40-50 miles. I read yesterday that charging to only 50% is better on the battery so I’m going to try that for a month.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Great info. I’ll give it a try. I notice the Tesla fast chargers seem to lower range pretty quickly.
  9. John Archuleta

    Putting some numbers on the factors that affect range

    Wow, I see that this is a very old post but it’s spot on with what I learned. I just bought a used 2017 S 100D and did my first and probably last road trip from Vegas to Lake Tahoe. It was by far the most stressful trip of my life. Always watching the gauge and over charging at each stop. My...

    Battery seems to going fast

    I bought this car used in December. It’s a 2017 S100D. When I first got it if I set charging to 80% it would charge to 251 miles. Now three months later only charges to 245 miles. Is that normal? Seems 2 miles a month is a lot.

    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    Yes my studs were conical

    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    15’s are too narrow for factory lugs. I put them on mine with 21” Turbines and wheels weren’t flush. Now I have 20’s on front 25’s on rear. Stance is perfect but when I have suspension on low and turning tight to park the fronts rub wheel well.

    Sentry Mode - I can’t be the only one, right?

    I have a 17 and there is no play. I think it’s stupid that I have to take the drive out and play on a computer. It’s $2,200 to upgrade the computer. Rip off!

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    Yes it’s 2022 I’m surprised I just got it and the only thing I see different is I can change the screen to dark.

    Charging loss

    Thanks it’s 2 miles but it’s 24 in a year if this continues. That’s a lot in one year.

    I’m about 423.

    Charging loss

    So I bought a 2017 100D a month ago. When I charged to 80% I would have 251 miles. Now it’s only 249. In one month? Is this normal?
  18. John Archuleta

    Charging at home, but shows as "other" in the app

    On mine home shows correct but work shows as other. I have the work address correct and shows inside the circle but when I check charging stats it says other. How do I fix that?

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I’m getting the new update 2022.8.10.11 right now. I wonder what will be different.

    The brakes are Brembo and to me work perfectly.

    FSD Beta Problems I've Experienced

    So far every post I’ve read about FSD tells me it is not worth it.
  22. John Archuleta

    After 5-weeks, I turned FSD Beta off!

    Thanks for the feedback. I don’t think I have the patience for the car to be timed. It would drive me crazy and part of the enjoyment of this car is driving it so I think I’ll pass. If I want FSD I’ll call Uber.

    Tesla Wall Charger only pulling 40 amps, that right?

    There, thanks. I logged in and circuit breaker was set to 50A so it only allowed 40A charging. Changed it to 60A and it’s now charging at 48A. That should save about 30 minutes a day : ) I think the charger in the car is 72A but I don’t know how to check.

    Tesla Wall Charger only pulling 40 amps, that right?

    I did that once and it was maxed if I remember right. I need to figure out how to log into that again.

    Tesla Wall Charger only pulling 40 amps, that right?

    It’s the same as poster. I have the new Tesla wall connector with 60 amp circuit breaker. The car is a 2017 100D which I think has a 48A charger. But when I go to charge settings in the car the slider will only go up to 40A.

    Tesla Wall Charger only pulling 40 amps, that right?

    I have the exact same issue. My car is a 17 built late in the year and I only get 40A

    2021 Model S Plaid 19" - | Red, Full Xpel PPF, Ceramic Coating, 35% Tint and extras | - Rockford, IL

    Yes price is way high. It’s almost what he paid and the second he took delivery the value drops at least 10% but because it might take so long to order a new one someone may be willing to pay a premium to get it now.

    2021 Model S Plaid 19" - | Red, Full Xpel PPF, Ceramic Coating, 35% Tint and extras | - Rockford, IL

    LOL, you barely drive it but put almost 8,000 miles in five months? Hate to see what you think normal driving would be.

    2017 S Turbine gray wheel color?

    Does anyone know which color gray my wheels are? Tsportline sells three different gray touch ups. Plus, does anyone know a spray touch up?

    2017 Model S 100D for sale

    Why? Pretty simple, because comparable models with same options and mileage sell for about 57k. I bet if owner just drove it to AutoNation they would write a check for 50k. I was going to buy it just to flip it.

    Model X 19" TSportline Wheels, Nokian winter tires, Modern Spare, car cover, Ski/Snowboard carrier. Boston, MA $500

    What would you want for just the spare? PM me. Never mind. According to their website it won’t fit an S

    T Sportline TS1 spare wheel and tire kit: opinions?

    I don’t get why if one tire was designed to fit all models why is the price different depending on the model?
  34. John Archuleta

    Spare tire kit wanted.

    Perhaps you bought a spare tire kit and have realized the odds are you’ll never need it with their free roadside service. Some of the drives I take don’t have service centers that could arrive in a reasonable amount of time so I would consider $250 or $300 if shipping is included and full kit...

    Driving in HOV lane without sticker

    Which is why I don’t understand why a Tesla owner would say M3 lol
  36. John Archuleta

    Road trip feedback with NAV on AutoPilot (Carlsbad, CA to Camarillo, CA)

    Yes you can ignor HOV, Tolls and something else.
  37. John Archuleta

    Driving in HOV lane without sticker

    I figured that out but it’s silly typing M. We all know it’s a Model when I see M I think BMW.
  38. John Archuleta

    Why do people Use MS/MX/M3/MY for Tesla's vehicles?

    This is a Tesla forum. It’s stupid saying M we all know it’s a model if you just say S or 3. If you are worried about saving key strokes save yourself one more.

    Driving in HOV lane without sticker

    What does the M stand for?

    California HOV sticker?? Lol .. really????

    HOV lanes are a joke imo. It doesn’t promote car pooling it’s just people that happen to have two people. They make traffic 20% worse. But with California making all new car sales EV it’s not surprising they are getting rid of the stickers.
  41. John Archuleta

    California HOV sticker?? Lol .. really????

    Really? It looked like fake stickers but I didn’t look that closely. Sure would be easy to knock them off.

    2017 Model S 100D a good deal?

    Ahh, this explains why my 2017 S doesn’t have free supercharging.
  43. John Archuleta

    Supercharge question

    I just bought a 2017 S. I thought all S models except the 60’s through 2017 came with free supercharging but mine doesn’t. Anyone know why?
  44. John Archuleta

    Supercharger invoices no longer available on tesla.com

    I just bought a 2017 S. Does anyone know why I don’t have free supercharging? I thought they all came with that through 2017.

    California HOV sticker?? Lol .. really????

    Amazon sells the stickers. I wonder if they keep you from getting pulled over?

    $724 for TPMS sensor?

    Buyers expect tires so you won’t get your money back. Have you tried that Tesse app? You can check tire pressure on it so I was just wondering if the app would show all not reading (if so it’s the computer not the sensors) or maybe just one. There’s no battery in a sensor. And if you check tire...
  47. John Archuleta

    $724 for TPMS sensor?

    Yes you need to fix it to sell it and with only a few thousand left on rubber sounds like you will have to anyway.
