Nevermind, got them.

Thanks! Not too familiar with them, contact on forum or elsewhere?

Thank you both! So now I get the difference by mode so that’s not an issue. My only and big problem is what it thinks is full keeps dropping and as of right now on standard mode it stopped at 50 miles. It was 184 in the spring time, 96 maybe a month ago. I’ve tried switching chargers to the...

For the past month or so have had some odd behavior. Interested in any insights. It’s a 2008 Roadster. First, when I change the charge mode from storage, standard, performance... etc the mileage number for amount of charge I have changes instantly. For instance, now I’m charged at 96 miles but...

Thanks! Last night I popped the trunk and flipped it to range mode for charge as some of the posts suggested. Left that way for 2hrs or so and then flipped back to standard. It stopped! Must have been the temp then. I don't think I've ever had it in range mode as one odd thing I noticed was the...

Maybe. I don't know. I may try range mode and drop amps to 16 for charge to see if it's a cooling issue or pump.

I've had a non-stop buzzing / humming sound behind my passenger door for days. It occurs when plugged in or not. At the same time, have noticed my charge level drop from what used to be 180 miles to now struggling to get to 170 and usually hanging around 165-163. It's a 2008 Roadster. I've been...

It does when it’s not on the car. It seems to not go all the way forward when I put it on the car though. I tried the 120v charger no issues and the clip on top is sliding forward and back better, clean and easy slide.

I found one other post on this forum and checked inside the wall unit to see if the purple clips are connected. Mine are. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/attachments/img_1824-jpg.194387/

Has anyone had the HPWC for the Roadster not trigger charging? I connect it to the car, then push the lock clip on top forward and then nothing. The color around the charger stays white and that blue light that normally triggers just before green charging never happens. Seems like the clip on...

Im running a 90amp to it, I should have been more clear. Decided that after the first few responses on here. My mobile connnector GFI keeps tripping so can’t charge right now at all. :-). I think it’s the age of the connector causing it. Procrastinated on the HPWC for 8 months, now need it...

I have the Clipper Creek. The plan right now is to run 70amp to it and then just change my setting in the 08 Roadster to pull down 24 or so. If I do that, do I need to reprogram the Clipper too?

Thanks everyone! Going to install the full set of Amps to the HPWC and throttle it in both my Model S and Roadster car settings.

About 8 months ago I acquired a 2008 roadster (I’m the second owner) and have been using the 110v plug. I’m finally getting around to having an electrician estimate hooking up the roadster High Power Wall Connector that requires 90amps. The electrician is concerned about running that amount of...

Done. Thx!

Sort of new to Iowa (1.5yrs), but I missed this both last year and this year. Is there some distribution list so I don’t miss it in 2018? Can bring a Model S and Roadster next year.

Guessing the answer is none here too in Des Moines, ya never know.

427 is being delivered to me tomorrow. Does anyone else in the Des Moines area own one? Interested in meeting up or any experiences with local service shops or trips to Omaha / Minneapolis for service. Own a Model S already, excited to have an 08 Roadster now. Paul

Anyone here have the same color as mine in Des Moines and dropped someone off at DMGCC Friday at 12:15pm?

I now own it as of a week ago. Great car! Paul Hlivko

Thank you all for the insights! Just picked up my Tesla today in Minneapolis and enjoyed the ride down to Des Moines. Closing on a house tomorrow in Urbandale. We are excited to move here. Hope to meet up with fellow Des Moines Tesla owners soon.

Thank you! I didn't know they'd deliver it our door (once we own a door there!).

How best can I purchase a Tesla. Buy in Minneapolis, Omaha, Kansas City or Chicago? With the ban in Iowa to purchase, are there issues with registering the car in Iowa and getting plates? Does someone live there and can share their experience? I'll probably be in Dallas County (Urbandale...
