    Available 2016 Model X P100D: 6 seat, XCare warranty, free data and supercharging

    I think you need to look at car sale websites - you're way above the typical price. Yes, you have Unlimited SC if it transfers, but still - I've been shopping around and I think you're 25%-30% high. I see a 2018 that is at a P100D, for $52k at a used car dealer in the mid-west. Good luck, hope...

    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    It's in the phone App, just not in the car NAV yet.

    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    I can report that the Ypsilanti SC is up and working. I went by this evening, all the lights are on and I was able to charge! I was by there earlier today and the Supercharger crew was there testing stuff out and told me it would be up today, and it was. Have fun Supercharging everyone! There...

    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    Stopped by again, not raining today. Around the side there is no meter and the power cables aren’t connected. So it might be a bit.

    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    I stopped by this evening and tried it out. I plugged in but no power, I'll stop regularly this week to see if it's live. I would have poked around and looked for the electric meter, but it was raining kinda heavily.

    Supercharger - Ypsilanti, MI

    I swung by there yesterday and there was no change from the June pictures, except a white portable storage box.

    I drove by last week and no progress. Still just a regular parking lot.

    2018 V3 supercharging issue.

    I have a 2018 LR RWD Model 3 - I just went on a road trip and charged at 150kw and at 250kw Superchargers. I didn't have the problem you're having - the 250kw one ramped up to 250kw pretty quickly, and stayed high until some SOC then started tapering down (I went to the restroom) but it...

    Supercharger - Oshkosh, WI

    Any reports from charging Monday? Headed to the airshow today. I'll probably charge there tomorrow morning before going the EAA airshow.

    Best option to charge in a rented home

    I'd avoid this - there is no situation where this would be helpful. If it's buried, he'd have to dig up the ground to access it, break into the PVC, disturb whatever is in the conduit, then dig and break into the conduit at the other end. All for 15 feet of burying it? It would complicated the...

    Regen brake loss

    Also, what you think is "not cold" for Toronto is still cold for the car and battery. I live in Michigan, so anytime this month (May) the car has been below 65 degrees F overnight I still get .... showing on the Power meter at 90%. Once I've driven some, used some battery and the battery pack...

    Sold my Tesla yesterday - No Sellers Remorse Yet

    Interesting - I have a 2018 Model 3 and I drove my friend's 2021 Model 3, that he just had delivered the other day. I could immediately tell it was much quieter inside and had a smoother ride. Did you notice the 2021 Model 3 had double-paned side windows where the 2018 does not? Anyway - enjoy...

    Front passenger and rear window opened by themselves

    I had this happen twice - in a downtown parking garage. Came back to the car and the front passenger window was down. Luckily nothing was taken of or screwed with. After the second time in a few months I wrote it up, mobile service came and replaced the front passenger window switch. Hasn't...

    PSA - Referral Link May Not Work in Safari Anymore

    Just as a note, you can see when someone has ordered a Tesla using your referral code, it shows up in the App under "My Referrals" and says their name and "Ordered". Then for me, it changed to "Delivered" and the miles were on my account within a hour or two of them picking up the car. And...

    FSD and capabilities of a

    I think you're overestimating the (a) usefulness of beta FSD (b) the timing of it and (c) avoidance of anything on the road. I don't expect it will see anything on the road presently, potholes, dead animals or debris. My current EAP only recognizes bicyclists about 25% of the time these days...

    12V battery - when will it die?

    I think the problem isn't that it might die sooner or later, the problem is that you can't open the doors or use the car if it dies. (until you open the frunk using the special procedure) I guess I'd be prepared for it to die any minute. For me, I would do what I could to get it replaced...

    Michigan - Final Bill for the car

    In Michigan, I paid $438 for my latest 1 year registration for a 2018 LR RWD. They will deliver the car in Clarkston - my friend just made his payment and is waiting for the date to pick it up in Clarkston. Sales tax is 6% in Michigan. I don't know if they are having you pay that upfront or...

    Model 3 Trunk Lights Don't Always Turn On

    Same for me - at home, the car is unlocked in the garage. If I open the trunk only, the trunk lights don't come on. But, if I shut the trunk, open a side door then reopen the trunk, lights come on. A bit annoying since, I usually put stuff in the trunk first before I get in the car if I'm...

    Experiences of Tesla leasing

    Stumper! Help needed!

    If it's a light wind noise while parked, people say it's the car keeping ventilation through the AC unit to dry it off. I know - it's plenty dry in Minnesota in the winter. If it's a loud noise like a jet engine, then it's something else and not drying the AC. Mine does that sometimes, then it...

    Fan runs at high speed after exiting the car with AC and HVAC off

    I've had this same problem off and on for the past two months. Doesn't matter the length of the drive or temperature - once it happened when I backed the car out of the garage to move something then put the car back in the garage. (it had been in the garage all night) It was 75 degrees out that...

    Things I will miss

    I believe the map data base (street names, how to navigate from A to B) is downloaded to the car. So the car can navigate without cell service. But the pretty satellite images are downloaded on the fly as you drive around.

    Buying a Used 2018 Performance - Questions

    I have a 2018 Model3 with Enhanced Autopilot (but not FSD) Enhanced Autopilot is not the same as FSD. FSD is a few thousand dollar upgrade from the Enhanced autopilot (EAP) Enhanced autopilot will: - Drive the car on highways and on regular roads (called Navigate on Autopilot) - Takes exits on...

    Rochester NH SC out of order

    Supercharger - Ann Arbor, MI

    I live nearby and have driven by the Ann Arbor supercharger twice in the last week. One day there were three cars charging, today one. So at least some of the stalls were working. I don’t charge there so I don’t know the KWs or anything that’s being provided.

    Issues with Temp in the car (In app)

    Air temp sensors will be unreliable without air flowing over them. I don't know where the Model 3's sensor is but without airflow I would expect it to be off. Also, even though it's cloudy, a not insignificant amount of solar radiation will still reach the car, which will warm it up a decent...

    Consumers Energy (Michigan) cellular diagnostic connector rebate offer.

    Pretty standard disclosure. If you look at pretty much anything you buy, it will have some version of that.

    California HOA Insurance

    I would ask your HOA if it’s possible for them to add coverage to their insurance for the EV charger and just bill you the additional amount.

    Costco tire rotation

    I gave up on up on buying tires from Costco. Yes, they will rotate them for free, but it took forever, even with an appointment. Discount Tire is much quicker for me, is next to a Panera and is very quick with the service, same (free) price. I didn’t buy the Tesla tires them (they are still...

    Hotel/Destination Charging Thoughts

    I think it's nicer to charge to whatever percentage you need, then vacate. Someone might drive by, see you parked in the EV spot and keep driving and park further away, not thinking to walk up to the car and look at the dashboard. I wouldn't bother someone after 9pm or before 8am asking them to...

    Installing a NEMA outlet on a hard wired 240v hot tub circuit?

    Data on Cold Weather Range Decrease

    I don't have graphs to back it up, but these are all spot on. I live in Michigan and I've lost 40% battery range during the depths of winter, with a headwind. Now that's the worse case scenario. The Supercharger network has really expanded and they are well situated for trips outside your...

    2 Tesla Charging setup

    You could run two lines off the same panel, each with their own breaker. But you'd have to make sure the sub panel and main panel can handle the load of charging two cars at the same time. The mobile charge that plugs into a 14-50 maxes out at 32 amps, so you'd need to be able to handle 64 amps...

    Salesman gives me EAP, 6 months later, Tesla takes it away via OTA

    It seems like the OP wanted to purchase Autopilot - he was not aware enough (not his fault, Tesla was changing things by the week back then) to know the different between AP, EAP and FSD and when it was offered. The Tesla representative who completed his paperwork is the one who said he would...

    Opinion: FSD, Why you should not buy it.

    My EAP already does those things, I really don't see the need to pay more for FSD.

    Supercharger - Swartz Creek, MI

    Just swung by to give it a go, I was able to charge just fine. The Biggby coffee isn’t open yet, and when it does it’s a pretty small building. It’s just a “to-go” place. But it’s very close, so it’s easy to pop over and grab a coffee then get back in your car.

    Supercharger - Swartz Creek, MI

    I wish they would just finish already. It's a perfectly placed charger for visits to the Almont area from AA. In the winter, it can be a tight trip. Last year, I was thinking it would be done by Labor day, no problem... now I'm wondering if it will be done by Memorial day. It is looking like...

    You probably need to turn it on - on the right side of the map, there is a traffic light icon. Tap that - it turns on and off the traffic information.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    Yes, I have it set for departure at 8:30 so it's all charged up by 6am. (Tesla says it assumes a Time of Use plan starts charging higher prices at 6am. Mine doesn't but that's fine. Last night when I went to bed, the Tesla app on my phone said, "Scheduled Charging - will start at 1:30am" or...

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    My Model 3 mirrored what yours did, I have it set for "Weekdays" only for Scheduled charging. On Saturday, when I plugged it in, it immediately started charging to my set percentage. On Sunday, it charged as soon as I plugged it in, which makes sense because a Time of Use electricity plan...

    Supercharger - Swartz Creek, MI

    Glad the pedestals are being installed. It fill a need gap between the US-23 corridor of Michigan and the thumb.
