    Model S (2013) rear-left airsuspension leak (?)

    During the COVID-19 outbreak everywhere both our Model S (85 and 100D) are parked for longer periods. When I just came to the parking garage where we park I noticed that the S85 was very low on it's suspension on the rear-left. Now I think this is a leak, because this shouldn't happen. The...

    Oproep: Moderators gezocht! Vriendelijk blijven naar elkaar en on-topic

    Jaren lang was het niet echt nodig om als moderator op te treden op TMC. De laatste tijd bezoek ik TMC zelf wat minder omdat ik erg druk ben met andere dingen, maar ook omdat ik het niet altijd meer een leuke plek vind. Om het tij te keren is het denk ik verstandig om op zoek te gaan naar extra...

    Successful data recovery of broken eMMC chip MCU1

    For more information about what happens when the eMMC chip dies, see: Consolidated eMMC Thread (MCU repair) My story was that last summer (September 2019) the eMMC chip of my Model S from 2013 failed. It has 260.000km on the ODO and the chip failed before I was able to replace it. I did put on...

    0-253km/h on the German Autobahn in a S100D

    I was driving back from Munich in Southern Germany earlier this week on a 3-lane Autobahn (A8 Munich -> Stuttgart) when this police car pulled up in front of me. All three lanes were forced to stop as they had to clear some debris from a blown tire of a truck. I was in the middle lane just...

    Indicator turning on randomly on highway

    I noticed this earlier this weekend when driving in Germany on TACC (Cruis Control). I did not touch the indicator, but suddenly the car turned on the indicator on the right. A few seconds later it stopped again. I had this a few weeks ago as well, suddenly the indicator turned on without me...

    Plotselinge wijziging tariefstelling publieke laadpaal

    Ik kreeg zojuist mijn factuur van NewMotion binnen en keek even naar het bedrag. EUR 346,00 inclusief BTW voor de afgelopen maand voor het laden van onze S85 en S100D. Best een hoog bedrag vond ik. Dus ik ben gaan rekenen en zag dat ik bij veel sessies tussen de 40 en 50 cent per kWh betaalde...

    Tesla website "Find Us" on Mobile devices

    Last week I was in the North of Italy and looking for a hotel with a destination charger to stay for the night. I used https://www.tesla.com/findus to find a DeC, but this didn't work. I was in a valley in the Alps (Alagna, IT) very close to Switzerland, but the road ends there. The Tesla...

    Preventive eMMC replacement on MCU1

    Many stories out there tell that the flash storage (eMMC) on MCU1 will wear out sooner or later. This is known with flash memory and at that moment your Tesla will die. It won't charge and possibly only drive in limb-mode. I have a 2013 S85 and a 2018 100D and the first one still has an MCU1...

    [EU] CCS SuperChargers charge <100kW

    I've read multiple reports, but I saw this happening yesterday when traveling through Germany. I arrived at a SuperCharger (Waldlaubersheim) where 6 of the 8 stalls where converted to support CCS. All stalls were empty. I plugged in my Model S 100D with a SoC of ~20% and it started charging...

    Ik zag het al eerder op de Tesla website, maar bij Model 3 komt nu een Mobile Adapter die heen 3-fase meer kan laden? Zie: Model 3 draadje Om met 11kW (3-fase) te laden heb je een Universal Mobile Connector nodig. Klopt dat?

    Vampire Drain is still a major downside after 5 years

    In September 2013 I received my first S85 and ever since I've driven 250.000km (155,000 miles) on the ODO. 5 years later, this September, I received my new S100D and my wife now drives the S85 from 2013. I still love both cars, but the Vampire Drain is still the thing which bugs me the most...

    [EU] CHAdeMO charging issue

    I've got a new S100D since September this year, but I haven't been able to use it with my CHAdeMO adapter. This adapter works just fine on my S85 from 2013, but it won't work on my new Model S. I tried it recently at Fastned: Fastned As my car set set to Dutch, let me translate: "Charging...

    WAARSCHUWING: Controleer je Type 2 kabel regelmatig

    Vanavond stond stond mijn S85 uit 2013 met 3x32A (22kW) te laden in een parkeergarage. Ik gebruik(te) hier voor het laden een Type 2 kabel die ik ook in 2013 gekocht heb en sindsdien al heel wat kWh mee geladen heb. Terwijl de auto al ongeveer 90 minuten met 22kW aan het laden was kwam ik even...

    V9 Auto Lane change and high speed traffic

    As I live in the Netherlands I drive in Germany quite often. Yesterday I got back from a 2.000km roadtrip over the German Autobahn where speeds can easily exceed 250km/h. My S100D is still on v8.1, but I was wondering how the Auto Lane change in V9 can work with high speed differences between...

    WLTP numbers for S/3/X

    It is September 2018 and I can’t find WLTP numbers for any of the Tesla vehicles yet. I thought that September 1st was the deadline for all vehicles in Europe to be WLTP tested. Any insight on this? WLTP: What is WLTP: the Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicle Test Procedure? | WLTPfacts.eu

    No new German SuperChargers due to "Ladesäulenverordnung"?

    I've seen that since Juni 2016 (Yes, 2016!) no new SuperCharger has been added in Germany. In 2016 Tesla was rapidly adding SuperChagers but has stalled since. Could this be due to 'Ladesäulenverordnung': Ladesäulenverordnung – Wikipedia It states in German: My German tells me that it tells...

    Tesla to adopt 'local' charging stations: CCS/CHAdeMO/GB

    I just found this: 特斯拉宣布支持新国标充电接口:老车免费升级_IT与交通_cnBeta.COM It's in Chinese, but from what I could find it seems that Tesla is willing to adopt CCS/CHAdeMO/GB in addition to SuperCharging on their vehicles? Is there anybody here who can read Chinese and translate it? Google Translate:

    [EU] Powerwall and 3-phase 400VAC

    I am looking into building a new house and looking into installing one or two Powerwalls as a backup power source combined with about 15kWp of PV on the roof.

    Combined Charging System (CCS) 2.0

    Before we start: Yes, I am aware that I'm on a Tesla forum and that we all love the SuperChargers and many here think CCS is 'vaporware'. But please, can we keep the discussion on-topic regarding CCS? :) Recently I stumbled upon two documents regarding the development of CCS 2.0. As they have...

    Advertised battery capacity vs useable capacity

    We all know that you can not use 100% of the advertised battery capacity of any EV. A 24kWh Leaf gives you about 22kWh of usable capacity, but it is rumoured that a 85kWh Model S battery is actually 81kWh and roughly 74kWh is usable. It might be to soon, but should we (EU and US) should come...

    SuperCharging starts to feel slow

    I do a lot of roadtrips with my Model S: I just got back from a 2200km roadtrip to Prague (Czech Republic) and I did a 5500km roadtrip through Denmark, Sweden and Norway. So I spend quite some time at the SuperChargers and after all these trips it simply starts to feel slow. Nothing wrong with...

    Any progress on future AC charging protocols?

    The current J1772 protocol isn't really suited for EV charging imho. While it currently does the job, it doesn't handle anything like delayed charging start or anything. For example, you have a 100A connection (1-phase or 3-phase doesn't matter in this case) and you want to connect 10...

    CCS Charging options for Model 3

    I know, nothing is known yet, but just thinking about this. For the US and some other markets Tesla created their own connector, but the EU and other markets use a modified Type 2 charging port. With that in mind, it could be possible that Tesla modifies the chargeport in such a way that...

    Charging in Budapest

    Next week I want to go to Budapest with my Model S. Seems like a doable trip with all the new SuperChargers, but I need to charge in Budapest as well. There are some 22kW point, correct? Does anybody know where they are and what card I need?

    [POLL] Would you prefer a bigger battery or less SuperCharger tapering?

    This weekend I went to München (Munich, DE) a roadtrip of 2.000km in total. As much as I love the SuperCharger installations, I always get a bit disappointed by the tapering that occurs at the SuperChargers. ~100kW of power really adds range very quickly, but as soon as you go over >50% SoC the...

    EON card for charging in Copenhagen

    I want to go to Copenhagen next week and it seems like I can get there using the existing SuperCharger network. However, in Copenhagen I will need to charge and from what I've seen there are plenty of EON chargers in Copenhagen, but you need a RFID card from EON to use them. Does anybody...

    Firmware 5.9: Smart Charging finally works!
