    VIN 453 was the first Roadster I had the pleasure of seeing up close when I met with Rob back in February 2017 so this is a sad 🥺 moment for me – though I'm selfishly hoping she stays in SoCal🤞 Rob was also the first to enlighten me about Musk's Master Plan (part 1 part 2 part 3) which...

    Reengineering the Roadster: Custom Battery Upgrade for the Tesla Roadster

    Very exciting developments, @marco2228 👍 What are the target performance improvements you're aiming for with the new pack? Is it also safe to assume the motor has not been modified? And how about increased range? As for the batteries themselves, will 4680 be an option?

    A quick correction and some addl. details on #453. While I was not the original owner of the car, I had the pleasure of meeting with @RobsJester years ago and saw the car in person.

    New tires in LA - where to go?

    New tires in LA - where to go?

    There are stickers (if yours are still there) under the car that indicate the jack points) so you can point that out to the shop. Alternately, and ultimately probably better if you have your own jack and stands, DIY and lift up your own car, removed the wheel, and take it to any of the major...

    JdeMO for the Roadster?

    This is the same behavior I experienced on the ABB units so, unfortunately, it's not limited to the U.S. Handshake completes, charge starts, and immediately/abruptly ends.

    Will do. I'm really sorry this hasn't worked out for you and the others 😞 I do hope he'll make good on it and actually deliver them as it's truly a practical product and if he can get the CCS to work and future-proof things, even better. I remember asking him about the group buy a few years ago...

    JdeMO for the Roadster?

    It's a holiday weekend in the U.S. so I decided to go for a long drive here in SoCal. I haven't done one in a while – at least for the past 2+ years due to the pandemic and the car sitting for months awaiting service – so I figured I'd give it a go assuming I'd be able to DCFC out in the wild...

    Red error alert ID901&ID920

    RE: your temperatures, what's shown is probably fine if the car is just sitting and not being driven but if you could turn on debug mode from the "hidden" service screen, we would see the actual temps. More importantly however, the car is down to ~50% SOC so you may want to consider pulling the...

    Busted PEM? Call Tesla!

    Very interesting that they perhaps have a badge other than the "TESLA MOTORS" one for the 1.5 PEM. Like @gregd – now I'm very curious what they do for the 2.x where you have RS badging. Do they have generic cases stockpiled somewhere and the respective badges to attach depending on your build?
