    Will Netflix password crackdown break streaming in Tesla?

    Don’t forget that your Tesla cellular IP can be anywhere. I only get US Netflix content in both my Tesla’s. They register to an IP somewhere in Florida while I live in Vancouver, Canada. I can’t even use some local TuneIn radio stations cause some won’t allow you unless it thinks you are in...

    Charging Amperage always 1A less than setting

    Can’t believe this still hasn’t been fixed. Didn’t happen to me before but since the last 2 updates, I’m getting the same issue only with the app. Inside vehicle is registering correctly, app always 1A lower.

    Latest Model X Issue - Driver Profiles Not Working for Seat Settings

    Recently had my X serviced. Now I’m getting the same issue. There was also an update, not sure which one caused the problem. Any fix for this or do I have to take it into Tesla? Don’t really want to as it takes forever to get an appointment and my vehicle is also out of warranty.

    Supercharging Issue

    So finished the one week road trip. I supercharged probably a dozen times at new 250kW stations. Most were empty or had 1-2 other cars. Usually arrived with 5-10% SOC. Temps were around 10 degrees Celsius. It would ramp up to around 100-128kW and then drop within seconds to around 40-70kW...

    Insurance in BC

    @skiffie yes I think you are correct, I wouldn’t pay extra for oem insurance. Unless you are customizing your vehicle, I wouldn’t worry about aftermarket parts for the time being.

    Insurance in BC

    Look under your comprehensive coverage in your insurance papers. I’ve attached an ICBC and BCAA example. Most glass places will do rock chips without having to contact the insurance. For most other repairs under your comprehensive coverage, you need to contact the corresponding insurance and...

    Supercharging Issue

    I’ve tried 72kW, 120kW, 150kW and 250kW stations. Most of the time I go the stations are pretty empty and I drive at least 30 minutes on top of the car conditioning the battery with a SoC of around 5% before charging. Can’t remember when it started happening cause I usually park and leave but...

    Insurance in BC

    I’ve had my Tesla’s repaired 4 times, Tesla never took care of any insurance claims. It was done by 3rd party authorized Tesla repair shops. BCAA gives you slightly better coverage, no glass deductible, 1st accident forgiveness and some other benefits. BCAA was slightly cheaper on my X but...

    Supercharging Issue

    Looks like I’m not the only one that can get 128kW in and older S 85. So how are your shenanigans now? Maybe get your facts straight next time before insinuating someone is a liar. 😡

    Supercharging Issue

    Thanks, chart proves my 128kw on top of my 150kw supercharger that was installed in 2017 and my picture of the car charging at 128kW. I hate it when people call me a liar or insinuate it. Here’s an article about it Old 85 kWh Tesla Model S Battery Packs Suffer From Reduced Charging Speed also...

    Supercharging Issue

    Here’s a picture of it at 128kW back then. I can no longer get past 70kW. And it has nothing to do with preconditioning the battery as I only use the superchargers on road trips where the battery is already warm. Has been doing this a few years now and there’s other posts on here saying Tesla...

    Supercharging Issue

    Also, my car was delivered the last week of 2014 so basically a 2015. The 150kW charger I posted above was installed beginning of 2017. So yes, I was able to get 128kW. There is no benefit in me lying. Current out but when I get home, I’ll see if I can find some pictures of the car charging...

    Supercharging Issue

    I got the 128kw in the later years at 150kw chargers. It would jump to that for only a few minutes and then drop way down. I usually arrive at superchargers with less than 5% remaining. This was years ago. I took some pictures of it also, will have to find them.

    Insurance in BC

    I’m with ICBC/BCAA on my Model X and all ICBC on my Model S. With BCAA, there is no deductible for glass replacement (the Model X windshield is $2300CAD) but you have to pay an extra $50 a year for that benefit. I also recently got a rock chip. ICBC’s new policy won’t cover rock chips to the...

    Supercharging Issue

    My 2014 Model S 85 used to get 128kW when new, now I can only get 70kW max when the battery is nearly empty. Even my 2017 Model X 75D is showing the same symptoms. Tesla is definitely putting in a DC fast charge limit on older vehicles as @teacher suggests.

    Replacing instrument cluster

    I wonder if you can just remove the protective cover and glue and reinstall. If the screen fails at a later date, you can just order a new screen and attach to the motherboard.

    TMC Member Reviews Model S Infotainment Upgrade

    I did my infotainment upgrade for my 2017 about a month ago. They gave me a new touchscreen. My old screen had the yellow bands on the sides so maybe the new screen was part of the warranty. As far as losing AM/FM and satellite, I’m okay with that as I can still get my radio stations using...

    Don’t used unapproved 3rd party apps

    I am not saying I am correct, just relaying what I was told. There is another thread on TMC that also mentions this. It’s a bit long near the end. PSA: Don't use third-party apps and services, period.

    MCU/computer lockup and other problems

    Tesla Vehicles now importable to Canada!!

    thanks phtp, forgot about that. Checking the US prices vs Canadian prices after exchange rate, it's not much different. Better buying and trading in here, less hassle and paperwork.

    Tesla Vehicles now importable to Canada!!

    Thinking of buying new or CPO directly from Tesla. Is there any benefit to all this importing if you need to trade in your old Tesla? I’m thinking there might be too much paperwork and so on and probably not much savings as your trade in will be lower in value in the US as well.

    Poll: "Systems are powering up" error message

    Got message last night in my 2017 Model X 75D. I'm up to date on all the software updates, think it updated like 2 days ago. Message didn't go away after 5 minutes so I did a soft and hard reboot. It still didn't go away and I had to wait like 10-15 minutes before it went away on it's own...

    75D Owners - What's the max. supercharging rate you have seen?

    MX 75D, got 97kW at Kettleman City supercharger in California. Everywhere else on my trip from Vancouver Canada to Los Angeles along I5, have not gotten over 90kW.

    Battery upgrade / replacement.

    Makes sense for some, others not so. Going from an MX75D to 100D where I’m from is $40k difference. And because where I’m from, that $40k puts the MX into a different tax bracket and taxes of 25% are added to total purchase price ($150k car becomes $187.5k). It would be a lot cheaper for me...

    Battery upgrade / replacement.

    I spoke with eBay member k-ash. His shop in Hickory, NC has done about 30 Tesla battery upgrades on various Model S’s and Model X’s. All the vehicles including the RWD ones can be upgraded to either 90kWh ($14k) or 100kWh packs ($25k). You’ll need to drop vehicle off for 1-2 days. They also...

    Canada - 2017 Model X 75D for sale

    Dan43, keep in mind you don't have to pay the BC luxury tax if you buy from a private party. It's 10% PST + 5% GST if they are a GST registrant (ie. dealer). That 10% PST goes to 15% if over $125k and 20% if over $150k. This is in addition to the GST so you could be paying up to 25% tax. If...

    Looks like a very nice vehicle. You also have it listed on autotrader.ca with lots of pictures. I would be interested but have no idea the process involved to import it into BC.
