    RIP to my battery

    My 2019 Model X 100D is in the Service Center and needs a new high voltage battery. Yowza! 48K miles on it. 295 when new, charges to 271 now. Was driving on Monday and encountered a bms_u0118 error. Car kept driving. Got home, made an appointment for service later in the week. Next morning...

    Acceleration and Top Speed Reduced: bms_u008

    2019 Model X 100D, 48K miles. Encountered bms_u008 last night while driving. Was accelerating up a hill...error hit...power reduced, and NO regen. For the rest of my drive, it was sluggish, and it felt as if the front motor was not working. Can't get a service appointment until Friday...

    2019 Model X - Keep/Sell/Warranty?

    I'm at a crossroads with my 2019 (pre raven, 295 rated range) Model X. (38K miles on it) It honestly has been fantastic (after getting the shudder fixed in the front end). No problems with it. But I'm coming up on 4 years in a few months. I'm debating whether to sell it or purchase an extended...

    When do we get some new colors?

    When do you think Tesla will finally get around to providing more color choices? I have been a Tesla owner since 2016 and the color lineup has only gotten thinner over time. I know there is the handwringing about “oooh….theyr’e so busy getting cars out the door that they just couldn’t add that...

    Considering 2 Powerwalls for my Solar installation

    Folks… Looking for some advice here. I bought a house last year that has Tesla Solar panels on the roof. It’s a lease….and I had to assume the lease. Only problem I have is that we generate a lot of excess energy, and they did not install any powerwalls when the project was done. I’m...

    Market Check - 2019 Model X 100D

    So I'm really torn. I love my Model X, but I am wondering whether to take advantage of the good prices for used vehicles and sell my X to get a Y (which was my longer term plan). My 2019 Model X 100D was rated for 295 miles. My 100% currently is 275 miles. It has 22K miles on it. It's just over...

    Is the 100D the same as Long Range?

    Question for you....from a documentation standpoint, is the 100D the same as Long Range. Hear me out: looking at an Inventory car. The spec sheet says "Long Range" and it says that online, but the car itself and the sticker are 100D. I know they have the same range, but should they be...

    Why do I still have free SuperCharging? (So Cal)

    Hi Everyone, SoCal resident here. Our Model 3 is 1 year old and did not come with free supercharging. When the big fires hit SoCal in November, Tesla kindly offered free supercharging as a gesture to those impacted (we were not impacted, but we still received free SuperCharging). It helped us...

    CA HOV Stickers when car registered to a Trust?

    Wondering if anyone has run into this and if it will be an issue: We bought our Model 3 and registered it in our Trust. Has anyone done this and run into any issues when applying for their HOV stickers? The applications asks for DL number along with current registered owner. I'm trying to call...

    New Map UI in M3!

    Took delivery of our Model 3 yesterday. Map UI is completely different than my Model S. It has been rumored on Electrek for a while. Fonts, animations, voice....all different. When you approach a turn, it shows which lane you should be in for the turn. More that I have to play with, but it's...

    Worst Spots for AP1 - SoCal Freeways

    I really dig AP1 in my Tesla. I find myself using it whenever I can, but on my frequent trips in SoCal down the 405 between Redondo Beach and Huntington Beach, I have a few spots where I have to take over from AP1. Most times when I have to take over, I am in the carpool lane. There are some...

    CA I-5 How does the Grapevine impact range?

    I'm only a few months into owning my Model S, and am planning to take a "big" trip to Northern California over Christmas. The only other time I've done more than local driving is when I drove the car from the Fremont Factory back to SoCal. I have a 60 with a 210 mile range. I'm mapping my...

    How often do you use public charging stations? (non Supercharger)

    I'm taking delivery of my MS60 next month. I just had a HPWC installed at my house, and I live about 2.5 miles from a Supercharger. I don't anticipate needing to use public charging stations (ChargePoint, etc..), very often, but do you find that you're plugging in at shopping centers, etc to...
