    FUSC doesn't include destination charging?

    I have FUSC and I parked at a Tesla charger with both Supercharger and Destination chargers. I used the destination charger because I was having lunch and didn't want to need to leave in the middle of lunch to unplug my car. When I got back, I saw that I was charged for the destination...

    California FasTrak Positioning Requirements

    So I found a location that works on my 2017 Model S with the help of a fastrak employee. TLDR - it's the lower right side of the front windshield (passenger side). It's worked ever since I put it there (worked = not charged when set to 3). Using the express lane on 680 (both North & South)...

    Continuous Faint Humming Noise When Parked

    Just wanted to circle back - my problem was solved after my 12V battery was replaced. Annoying because I think the 12V was low for a good 6 months before I got the alert that it needed to be replaced. Tech said that the humming is the car keeping the systems running because the 12V battery is low.

    Fast battery drain - what’s happening

    Yes, it's likely because the 12V battery was low (even though I didn't get an alert for a long time). I finally got a alert that my 12V battery needed to be replaced at the end of last year (2023). The tech said that the humming was the car keeping the systems running because the 12V battery...

    Fast battery drain - what’s happening

    Thanks for the suggestions. I don’t have sentry mode active, don’t have summon on my car, don’t have cabin overhead protection on, and no third party apps installed. I think my alarm is because it’s unusual - has never drained that fast before. I’m okay and expected a certain amount of...

    Fast battery drain - what’s happening

    2017 90d that had really fast battery drain today. 39% to 33% while parked in garage for 6 hrs. Then 27% to 22% while parked outside at around 75 degrees. Any ideas what would be causing this?

    Trunk Squeak, Climate Auto, and Coolant pump(?) problems on 2017 Model S

    I've been noticing a few issues with my Model S 90D for the past few weeks. Wondering what/if there is a fix for them: When I open/close the trunk there is a loud squeaking sound coming from the passenger side power hatch lift support bar. Is this something that I can fix with WD-40 or some...

    Continuous Faint Humming Noise When Parked

    I notice the humming after I get home and park it - I check on it a few hours later and after it's ben parked overnight and the humming is still there. In terms of % charge, It ranges. I've charged it at home at a L2 charger to 50-60%. I've charged it at a supercharger up to 70-90%. In...

    Options for Arm Rest Cupholder insert on 2017 Model S

    The cupholders in the armrests are too big for regular drink cups, so I'm looking for some silicone inserts to help the drinks stay in place/snug. The model Y/3 and refreshed 2021/22 Model S/X have many inserts that work for those cupholders, but I haven't been able to find any for the...

    Continuous Faint Humming Noise When Parked

    Just bought a used 2017 90D a few weeks ago and have been experiencing this constant humming + 1mi/hr vampire while parked in garage. Sentry mode is turned off. Seems like one possibility is a low 12V battery, but I don't have any alerts to replace it. Is there a way to test if the voltage on...

    Does Tesla always provide a loaner when car is in for warranty work?

    Policy seems to vary based on the SC. My local SC policy is that if it's under 48 hours, they will not provide you with a loaner, but will give you uber credit, more than 48 hours, they will try to arrange a loaner, but depends on whether they have any available.

    Tesla Service - duplicate parts?

    Brought my Model S in to replace the two coolant pumps. The original estimate had one part entry for each coolant pump, but the final bill had two entries for the second coolant pump. Was this just a mistake on their part or are there two parts that are required for a coolant pump...

    Used 2017 90d slow sc speeds

    Went into Tesla service to ask them about the alerts and they said those are very concerning. Said that don’t usually see all those alerts unless the car was involved in some accident or the parts were replaced incorrectly and not reported. Basically the car can’t cool the battery so he...

    Used 2017 90d slow sc speeds

    Yeah, definitely want to at least check with service advisor. Since I just picked up the car today, it’s not under my account yet - put in a request today (and I think the dealer did as well) to transfer to my account. Plan to just stop by the local service center tomorrow to speak with an...

    Used 2017 90d slow sc speeds

    It was sitting maybe 4 or 5 days at the dealer - they were waiting for a tire to replace one that had a screw in it. I picked it up from the dealer, drove 10 min mostly freeway to my sisters place, then another 5 minutes to the sc. Would that be too short to warm up the battery enough? I also...

    Not sure. How can you tell? I did navigate to the sc, but it was only about 5 min away from where I was and I didn’t see any message about preconditioning.

    Used 2017 90d slow sc speeds

    Okay, will stick to L2 charging until I am able to bring it in. Any idea how much this will cost? We bought it from a ford dealer and they may not have expertise in Tesla but I feel like they should know to check the service alerts as part of the inspection. Feels bad if I have to pay to...

    Used 2017 90d slow sc speeds

    Just purchased a used 90d from dealer. Went to try supercharging and was surprised how slow the rate was. My old 2013 85 seemed to charge faster at a the same SoC. I’m hoping that I didn’t get a bad battery. Is there a way that I can tell? SoC was 55% V3 supercharger up to 250kW rate...

    Trying Verify if a Tesla has Transferrable Unlimited Supercharging

    For my previous Tesla (2013 Model S 85), I drove under 10k miles this year and charged about 5000kWh during that time. Some of the was no doubt due to phantom drain when the car is parked overnight or when I went on vacation and it was parked in the garage for a week or more. Even with local...

    Trying Verify if a Tesla has Transferrable Unlimited Supercharging

    After I posted this - I found this thread (SC01 FUSC not transferring??). Seems like the $0.00 is not a guarantee that it will not transfer, but if it was purchased from a Tesla auction, then it likely will not transfer. According to carfax report it looks like it was sold from original owner to...

    Trying Verify if a Tesla has Transferrable Unlimited Supercharging

    I am looking at a 2017 Model S 90D, (originally delivered in 2/2017, with single owner) from a dealer who tells me that it has supercharging and it's transferrable. They have verified that it does not get charged when they plug it in at the local supercharger. However, I've read that if the...

    Wiki Easy way to verify Free Supercharging

    I'm looking at a used 2017 100D and am trying to figure out whether it has free supercharging and if so, whether it's transferrable. The dealer was nice enough to check superchargers in the area and it only shows idle fees (which is similar to my 2013 with free supercharging). But I don't know...

    Seeking Advice on Purchasing 2018 MS 100D

    My current Tesla (2013 MS 85) was involved in an accident and the repair estimate made it a total loss. I'm considering looking for a used MS or a new MY though my personal preference is a MS. Looking in the 50-55k range so a new MS is too expensive (my current 2013 was bought used in 2018)...

    Leveraging "Time of Use" Rates

    I'm one of the lucky ones that got in on the PGE TOU6 plan and am not looking forward to when it expires.
