    Is this consumption normal

    I do my best to explain why. As you may know, M3 has one heater/cooler system to heat/cool the battery and cabin altogether. MX ans MS have two separate systems. So, when you start driving your car after a long cold night, the very first 10-20 km of your driving or let say until all right dots...

    Trying To Understand Range And Efficiency

    Hi sandals99, The only time you get 383 km of range is when you drive like a 90+ year old man/women. Means no sudden acceleration, never pass 90KM speed in HWY, plus no usage of any sort of heat/cold no uphill/downhill, no rough road driving & etc... 383 or 523 km Tesla advertised range are no...

    Please share your Ceramic Coating feedback

    Thanks for sharing. My question was toward the people who got it done last year. My contact is going to charge me $1400 and he needs the car for 3 days. How does the ceramic coating hold up? Does it mean I don’t need to soap wash the car once a week anymore for the next 2 years? For you who did...

    Scratches on Windshield Caused by M3 Wipers

    All the scratches are on my driver side wiper. I am pretty sure the scratches caused by the wiper itself. The mobile ranger keeps telling me it caused by sand or other elements but I argued that. What's the possibility that sand only spreads on the driver side of the windshield and not all over...

    Hi, I noticed two deep scratches on my M3, one near charge port and a long line on the back of the trunk. Has any of you been at Donnelly Collision Center for your Tesla paint job?

    Scratches on Windshield Caused by M3 Wipers

    Hi, I lately noticed scratches on my Model 3 windshield. They are very fine hair like scratches and could be seen at night or during bright, cloudless days with the sun. It is clear that all scratches ran tangential to the path of the windshield wipers. Have you noticed this on yours? Any...

    Limited Charging - due to cold temperature

    UPDATE: I woke up today and battery was charged to %36 percent and stopped by itself, even though I set it to %90. As I mentioned before, I am confident that it's not pin related.

    Limited Charging - due to cold temperature

    As far as I can tell, after 2018.50 update the charger latch/pin does not lock in cold weather anymore. Also I can insert and remove the charger nozzle without my phone. So my problem is not related to pin at all but cold battery.

    Limited Charging - due to cold temperature

    Hi, It's been really cold past two days here in Ottawa (-22c feels like -32). Unfortunately, I don't have a garage and I park my M3 outside, both at home and work. Last night and tonight when I insert Wall Connector, it clicks 2-3 times and little T symbol blinks in amber instead of green. In...

    Model 3 Charging cost? - Significant increase in Electric bill

    I believe with 120 km/day Ontario Winter driving you loose around %30 - %40 per day. With the assumption that you leave in the morning with %80 and coming back home at %40-%50 left. Option #1 - Charge every night to 80 percent (start at 7 P.M) --> battery is already warm, charges faster- less...

    Video - Tesla Model 3 Cold Weather Charging Issue

    The whole point is that for the $75K car you should not do that. I've never had to buy a Silicon spray or use a hair dryer for My 07 Mazda Cx7. I have owned the car for 11 years now and never had any issue under rain/heavy snow/freezing rain. Didn't need to do any of this non sense before for...

    My ReGen Brake never felt the same after V9 update. I haven't put Winter tires on yet. Whatever you guys with Winter tire reporting here I have been experiencing since V9. Still curios to know that its related to climate change or a possible bug in V9.
