In Monterey, so the utility is PG&E. But the scary stuff sounds similar. They said they have to check your meter, they got to see if the service can handle it, etc. When I explained I am using an existing circuit, my billing schedule changed and we got a nice letter saying all good. In my case...

The P85+ required a battery removal after a flat bed to Fremont. They ran the heater to take it down to 25 miles remaining range before working on the car. Took a day just to get the battery down to that level. They had to service circuit board, and I would not want to do that with a 224 mile...

Mothership has a list started but no dates confirmed. 2015 P85D on the list to be L-ed.

I ran a 50 amp rated wire to a 30 amp dryer plug and use the portable charger to get 20 to 23 miles per hour of charge for Tesse. Works fine, long trips I hit the SuperChargers, LA or Bay Area for example..... I believe Common and Ground go to the same place in the electric panel. On the...

Jeffro01, Are you 240v or 120v? At 240v 30amp, I never run past 3 or 4 in the morning. I have PG&E EVA rates which 11pm to 7am are at around 9 cents/kWh. Charge rate at 240v 30amp with the travel charger is about 23 miles/hour of charge. At 120v 12amp it is more like 3 miles/hour of charge. So...

Here is a good argument for the AWD (its a little long, but not if your a car person - but I used to work at Laguna so I could be bias): http://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=utube+918+vs+mclaren+laguna+seca&FORM=VIRE7#view=detail&mid=FC5AA5E93C2DB9158F00FC5AA5E93C2DB9158F00 The P85D drives...

PS2 Tires I was doing some looking around at the PS2 tires this morning and found this interesting...

Xenoilphobe, As a driver of P16138, P85+, I am curious about the wire you mentioned above? Just want to know where and what to check next time I have it up in the air. Going to put the wheel protectors on soon, so Tessie be going on the hoist. Also curious about the knuckle cracking if the SC...

Vehicle Dynamics The vehicle dynamics of the P85D vs. P85+ might be similar to the comparison of these cars, as the 918 has the electric front axle, like the P85D: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fnTZKvX5jg&feature=youtu.be It is a 21 minute u-tube, and while the P1 has more horsepower than...

Can't say for sure, but I just hooked up this week a 30A/240v Dryer plug from the laundry room into the garage. That is enough current to keep my car charged, and sure is better than 3miles/hour of charge of the 12a/120v.... I recently received a 2013 P85+, so I too am new to this. My...

Tesse (2013 P85+) is set up with .18 degrees rear toe. Guess I could have gone even less. I have to say I feel the car is freer with toe changes, -.48/-.12 front; .66/.36 Rear; Total Toe Pre/Post adjustments. Not that a 416hp machine felt slow, just that I think I could feel the drag.... The...

I just replaced tires, and had a 4 wheel alignment on a 2013 P85+. Too much toe out on the front, too much toe in on the rear. I installed the .21" longer rear upper links, and dropped a degree of negative camber. We have lowering links on this car. Tesse's now in the green on all suspension...

Looking at the current Tesla site, the air suspension travel is from 6.4" to 4.7". A delta of 1.7". At the -.4 camber per 2" of vehicle drop, from your earlier drawing, that would calculate to a potential change with its range of negative .34 degrees. Listed ground clearance is 5.65" nearly the...

I've seen that before. Torqueing non loaded suspensions creates springs. I had a Acura Legend repair after wife had an incident. Right front was 1.5 inches up and the shop insisted it was correct. They refused to loosen and re-torque under body weight until I got a regional insurance person...

Our 2 sets of links are in the hands of USPS headed to me. With any luck they might go in this weekend. Sorry to hear Chris is stopping production. The guys at the alignment shop when I went today were very excited about this development for addressing tire rear wear. What we did see on the...
