    Maximum battery charge level reduced

    Damn, I wish I had mine done when and where you had yours. I got a refurb 85kWh for my P85D, and it is still charge-gated.

    Unfortunately, according to this, my supercharging history only goes back as far as Feb 2017. I'm guessing that's because that's when they started thinking about charging fees for usage, and before that, they didn't keep track at all.

    Supercharging Speeds: Who, what, where, why, and when

    I had a charge-gated 85kWh pack in my 2014 P85D, ~130k miles. About a year ago, the pack was replaced under warranty with a reman 85kWh pack after getting the "charge level reduced" errors. But it is *still* charge-gated. Why is that? To me, it means either they gave me another charge-gated...

    Hey guys- kind of off topic but is there any evidence to date of artificially capped Powerwalls?

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Do you know whether your supercharging speed with the new battery was restored after they uncapped it (assuming it was previously slowed)? In my case, my range was restored but supercharging is still slow.

    I would like to see that too. It's possible that my reman battery is capable of higher speed charging but my car has been flagged for lower speed. I'll send a message to the service center and see what they come back with.

    Quick update on my battery replacement from a few pages back. After completing my 670 mile road trip and supercharging seven times, I can safely say I have no improvement in supercharging speed. In comparing my TeslaFi data along the same chargers along the same route, there is no appreciable...

    Ah, rats. That's what that means. Well that's disappointing especially because the service center told me on the phone that I'd be getting a new, not remanufactured battery.

    I suspect that's exactly the reason! To be honest, I'm not sure what I would have chosen had they offered me a choice of the longer range or the higher voltage for performance. I'm at the point where I think I'd value the range over the performance. I know a lot of people would not choose that...

    I didn't ask about the warranty- I assumed I would have the remaining years of the 8 year original warranty left. I won't be checking the charge time before I start my trip. It's kind of a long story, but this happened while in the middle of a road trip, and I actually flew home and back after...

    Broken Superchargers “survey”

    I've charged at nearly 200 different superchargers over the years, and I've reported bad stalls at least a few dozen times. However, the first and only time I ever had problems at an entire location was last week at Allentown, PA. I tried three stalls before finding one that would provide 20kW...

    You are awesome! But maybe you should relist it on PlugShare. There was actually a poor guy who rolled in with something like 9 miles remaining while I was there. He was a new owner and I showed him the PlugShare app and how to find chargers with it, but there was nothing he could use nearby...

    I reported it via email to [email protected] and via the web form on my Tesla account. I used to call the tech support number for every supercharger issue I encountered, but stopped about a year ago after wait times went through the roof. A local I talked to said they reported it several...

    Update: By the time I left last night around 9:00 PM, NONE of the stalls were providing any power.There was one other car trying to charge. Between the two of us, we tried all of the stalls and none of them charged at all. Fortunately, it had given me enough charge to make it to Rockaway NJ...

    What else does Tesla need to bundle to increase Model S sales?

    Honestly, these voting options don't really make much sense considering the ~$30k premium the Model S carries over the Model 3. Full Self Driving is only a $6k option, and let's face it- it's currently worthless and given Tesla's delivery history there's no rational expectation for that to...

    I personally wouldn't. @wk057 is investigating (see earlier in this thread... sorry I'm not going to find exactly where) and his recommendation was that if you get the range drop, there may be legitimate safety reasons for it. If you regularly need your max range, then maybe the risk is worth...

    Despite Tesla's shady practices, I simply don't see a better alternative. I'm not about to switch to an EV with no autopilot, even less range, and no long distance charging network over this. And I don't consider ICE an alternative- I'm done there.

    That's a good point- in the past, when leaving my car for long periods, I never checked the app knowing it would cause more drain. It didn't occur to me that TeslaFi was having the same (actually worse) effect.

    Ok. Wow. While I didn't have TeslaFi last year, I did have the foresight to take before and after screenshots of my app while parked unplugged at JFK airport last summer for 12 days. Day 1 was 149 miles, Day 12 was 119. So at this time last year, my vampire drain was 2.5 miles/day. Today it is...

    It's not, though. I have 19"s and my sticker says 242. It is an early P85D that I believe has the +P suspension, despite the 19" wheels. Perhaps that is the difference.

    No, it did charge to 100%, but I didn't check the power with Teslemetry until I got to an onramp, about 1.5 miles after charging.

    I have not... I don't know how to do that so I don't have a baseline to compare anyway. 40kW sounds like a lot! Subjectively it feels a lot less punchy than before, especially in the 30-50 mph range. I feel like my wife's non-performance Model 3 is actually quicker in that range these days.

    Strangely enough, I don't. Do you have referrals in that period? Not that it should matter, I only have referrals in a few of the periods in my list. In any case, I believe OP's end date for this period is correct because there was overlap between the two periods.
