    Early model S lug nuts

    If anyone in or around the GTA has changed the terrible early model S lug nuts for something more user friendly and want to get rid of their old ones I’m interested. Especially ones that have the chrome covers destroyed as I will be removing them and machining the seats to fit some strange wheels.

    Looking for a Toronto Downtown Core model X owner.

    I am hoping some kind person will help me out. I transport my elderly parents as my father has retired from driving. It's getting increasingly difficult for him to get in the model S, the rear seats are easier for him than the front so I'm wondering if some one could do a drive by to see how...

    WTB: Gen 1 HPWC.

    Looking for something to use at my friends place when I visit, I don't need anything fancy, an original gen 1 HPWC would be perfect, it needs to be weather proof and that's it. DM me if you have one you wish to sell and what you want for it. Ideally in Miami but that may be stretching my luck a...

    Does any one have a spare.....

    Left side (drivers side Headlamp) I know a lot of people keep spares just in case, I’m hoping someone has a spare headlight, not bothered about peeling, but just had to be structurally sound. I need to take mine out and open it up to see why it has a cataract. I’ve tried cleaning the inside of...

    There is a wheel god

    so when someone says, “ I have a fried who had a car like yours. He has some old wheels he wants to get rid of, do you want them?” It would be rude to refuse!

    I’m an idiot!

    So I went and plugged my car in to the charger I last used when the charging packed up on me. It failed on my again with a #981 I drove home slowly on range mode and lo and behold, same issue. I’m in panic mode at this point. But wait, a year of researching I remember to actually look at the...

    A T-Zero in Ontario - Canada

    Not exactly roadster related, but I am going to an EV meet a Sunday and one of the registrations is a T-Zero. As I’m back to yellow I fully intend to get both cars together if indeed the 3rd one is going to be there. Seems a weird place for one to turn up though.

    Places to look for used vehicles

    i may be missing something but other than the usual suspects (autotrader and car gurus) where else is there to look for used vehicles. I looked on the forum classifieds and that’s just a glorified podding contest. CPO just stopped FSO so that leaves me with 3rd party who have a hard time...

    Future proof purchase.

    I’m looking to add a more practice vehicle to my daily driver. I am pretty sure I have it narrowed down. My needs are air suspension, sub zero, AWD and a colour scheme my wife likes. Pearl white or soft grey. It’s slim pickings in Canada so I have either a low milage 2015 S85D white and tan with...

    Has anyone else froze their a$$ off

    -20 degrees, carbon fibre body shell, heating designed in California!!!!! I must be nuts Anyone else had to double layer to get in the car. The first 50km is okay, but after 120km at 100km/hr the heating seems less and less effective. This time last year was riding my e-bike everywhere and I...

    Shipping parts

    Any one know the cheapest way to have an item picked up (seats) and delivered to my UPS drop box. The distance is substantial (Capitola to Lewiston) but I know it can't be cost prohibitive.

    CV joint replacement

    I'm having some clicking on the rear and I'm assuming a rear CV joint showing the first signs of wear. Being the kind of person who like to keep a spare on the shelf does anyone know if the Lotus Elise one is the same. I don't want to have the car immobilized while I pull it apart to see what fits.

    Plugshare deleting pictures and reviews

    Interestingly plugshare have deleted reviews, good and bad, along with pictures to ensure Yorkdale East retains a high score. Which is weird as it also increased its charging rates yet does nothing about the 70% occupancy rate of EV’s not charging. I don’t care to much if they increase the cost...

    Tesla slave BMS

    i know of people have bought battery modules with slave BMS’s or have sold them without. I figure there’s a few floating around in people’s garages. I’m after a full set (but I’ll consider any amount) for a project I’m working on. If you know you have a dud one please don’t offer it, as fault...

    Where exactly does the pilot signal generate from

    Question for the electronics wizards. IF I change the plug on my pigtail to a 14-50 will the open evse know to charge at 40 amps. What I mean is is the part that alters pilot signal in the pigtail or in the box itself? I’m pretty sure it’s in the box but the fact the input cable has the pilot...

    MC 120 options

    I hear the MC 120 connectors were not the best, but I'm after something similar. There is one outlet plug in my work garage way down on P4 where I park out the way off grand dodge caravans. I'd like to plug in something less conspicuous that the standard MC240 with 120 lead on it. Is there an...

    First Trip Roadtrip

    So after reading pretty much all I can find, cross referencing options and a healthy dose of reality from Ari ROAD TRIP: From Florida to Ohio in a 2010 Tesla Roadster Sport 3.0 I decided I'll be driving my car back. With the support of the Toucan's, the MC240 and a wealth of advice again from...

    What happens when there are only SC.

    With the world turning to the M3 as their saviour and every where going super charger crazy, where does that leave the humble roadster. I see there are many SC locations but as far as I am aware they are no use to the roadster, there is no adaptor that can be used to allow the roadster to use...

    What models/years would you avoid?

    With the vast amount of information on the models, what model is the one for a person transitioning from ICE to an EV. I am just researching the roadsters after a lifetime of Porsches and always wanting a lotus I feel this would be a great time to dip my toe in the water. I feel a 2.x is a must...
