Hello TMC electrical gurus! What do you think of my panel to add a breaker for using the mobile connector? I'm not an electrician, I just know for my last house they added a quadbreaker to squeeze in a 50amps breaker. Panel also looks full here but my untrained eye thinks it might be possible to...

Hi good morning, Since I have solar I like to be "green" and charge directly from the sun during midday when it produces the max output (I also avoid the roundtrip of energy to SDG&E). For the past couple weeks, I've noticed the charge drops from 48A to 32A when charging midday on a sunny day...

Hello fellow Tesla owners! Just got this baby delivered today, still in box sealed / unopened. I'm in SoCal - Orange County. Prefer local pickup. $500 cash. Already have one installed and it's the best investment I have for my car. 24' Cable. The etched signature from Elon makes it a piece of...

Hi! My wife started a job this week and using the M3 for her commute. It's 7mi each way, 14mi total. She sits in the car for about an hour during lunch time with AC most of the time (it's been hot, peaks at 90). When she comes back it seems like 20mi (!) has vanished. Her consumption is 214W/mi...

Hey! I've been waiting for the 14-day EAP trial since it was announced earlier this month and yesterday afternoon when I went to my car I saw the notice to enable EAP trial, which I promptly enabled. I did a 3 min drive to confirm it was working fine. Then last night 1 hour after charging it...

Quick question.. I searched all the Tesla forums and just wanted to confirm a few things.. Will be getting a HPWC and I currently have a NEMA 14-50 with a 50amps breaker. I would like to replace the outlet with the HPWC, hardwired if possible since I want the 60amp breaker and 48amp max...

Hi TMC ! I'm super excited to plan my first multi-day road trip in my M3 and it will be from SoCal to San Jose to SF to Sacramento back to SoCal, for about 10 days total. There will be a segment of 5-6 days where I will be staying in SF at a friends place (no charging) and driving to the Hyatt...

Hi, I did google searches but couldn't find anything.. I'll be getting my first loaner this week and was wondering if you get charged supercharger idling fees? I assume Tesla won't be billing you? Also do you have to return the loaner with a meaningful charge or it really doesn't matter? Thx!

Hi! I was doing my daily visual inspection of my brand new Tesla and on Saturday night I found out I have a large screw in my tire! Not even 70mi on those tires. It went in fully. Called roadside assistance, sent me a tow truck and installed a tesla loaner wheel same size and tire. Now tesla...

Hi Was getting my car paint protected (full front clear bra) this morning and after an hour and car wash done I get a call saying the on the passenger side bumper there is clearly less paint, primer is showing and the black is coming through. I told him to stop and will have to show it to Tesla...

Hi Got our first rain last night and this morning the driver side Tail Light shows fog/condensation inside the housing of the light. I've seen this in the forum on early models, this is worth a service visit I guess, anybody else has had that issue lately? Thanks!

Hi! I got really excited to remodel my garage based on DÆrik's video and ordered those great brushed aluminum signs from Russia! Unfortunately they are not matching with my paint. It's really sad as I have been tracking them for a month and now I can't use them. They are in new condition...

Hey guys, Got a call from Costa Mesa, CA delivery center, they left a VM saying that the car needs software update, that didn't take the latest update and they will try again on Monday morning before delivery and hope for the best, otherwise will have to reschedule. Has this happened to anyone...

Hi I just realized today that my install of the NEMA 14-50 plug has the ground down instead of up, which is recommended for using the UMC. How hard would it be to flip the ground up? Shut off breaker, unscrew plate, and flip the ground and opposite wire? Thanks!

Hi! I'm eagerly waiting for my M3 to be built, in the mean time I have a question I have CA Special Interest Plates in the Environmental type that I kept from my last car. With the M3 in Pearl White I would like to switch them to 1960 Legacy (Black background with Yellow letters). Is it possible...

Hi! I'm not getting clear answers from searching the forums so let me ask owners of M3 in California who didn't buy EAP while ordering their car: If you go and try to enable / purchase EAP for 6k, is that including sales tax? Secondary to this, any implications with insurance by adding a 6k...

Hi! Not sure if there's a section about that so posting here. I know Tesla has "recommended" electricians, I've contacted 5 only 1 really responded and is coming out to see my panel. I've asked for 5-6 quotes on Yelp as well, got a few replies. Anybody has had a great electrician for their...

Hi Anybody also not able to change their email ID of their account? I've been getting this since morning: Sorry, there was an error saving your new email, please try again.

Hi! There's a proverb that if you put what you want in the universe it will happen.. so : I'm looking to buy a reservation that's ready to configure for $2,000 ($1,000 fee + your $1,000 deposit). I have a reservation but it is due only in July so would be happy to jump a bit and get a car in...

Hey! I'm looking to get a Model 3 soon and I've sat in one in the Tesla showroom, but before buying a 60k car I'd like to at least test drive it for 5min :) I planned on doing Turo but they all charge $185+ for a day. So I just had this thought.. any owner of the M3 living around Irvine, CA who...

Let me know how it went! They are mostly selling their account, you get to change password and put your info. Wanna make sure there were no gotchas. Thx!

I know this has been talked about in great lengths and my understanding is if you want to get a Model 3 from someone who can configure right now they basically have to configure/buy it and then resell it to you, and both don't get the 7.5k rebate. I've read earlier posts where people were able...

Hi, If someone buys a used Tesla outside of the CPO program, does that make you a current Tesla owner and bumps up your priority for your Model 3 reservation? Thanks

Hi guys I've been shopping for a while for a Tesla and honing in on the lower range (approx 50k) for a used MS. I found one nearby that I'm interested 2013 Tesla Model S P85+ - Performance Plus Package - Carbon Fiber - Used Tesla Model S for sale in Trabuco Canyon, California | autoquid.com...

Hi! I'm sure this thread has been talked about many times but please bear with me. I've been watching CPOs daily for a few months, and just can't justify buying one because, for instance a moderately used S 85 85 kWh Model S 5YJSA1CN4DFP24204 | Tesla is $48,500 with glass roof and suspension...
