SuperBowl Sunday, I took my nephew skiing for his 15th birthday, then rushed to make a 6pm Super Bowl party! I drove about 140miles roundtrip. Started with 58% SOC, ended up with 10%. Not bad efficiency considering the temps. Unfortunately, the game dragged on, and I stayed until 10pm, before...

So, over the years, the question of how to stop the blue windshield washer fluid from streaking the driver's side window, or, prevent it from dripping into an open window. Generally, this has not been something that has bothered me; however, it's approaching Spring, and there's lots of melting...

So, in a recent thread, I posted a theory that HV batteries that are in warmer climes degrade faster than ones in colder climes. I’m sure that notion may have crossed the minds of quite a few of you. DaveEV mentioned that that idea would follow the Arrhenius Equation. I wondered if there would...

A week ago, when the 99c subscription renewed, I noticed AutoMate, the app, stopped working. It has some useful features, including a nice AppleWatch app. What I liked is it mimicked the display, so if your display blanks out, you could possibly use it as a backup, though I haven't ever had to...

So, I finally got around to adding the temperature data from the last year to my Stats battery health data. Unlike Teslafi, we don't get the temp data, so I had to add it in manually. This is my Stats Battery Health data. As I got my car in December, it's now been almost a year. Ignore the...

After months of a few people a day posting reports of battery degradation, some minor, some major; we've gotten a smattering of comments from people posting about zero degradation. Rather than always trying to understand why people have been suffering degradation or BMS error, I was thinking...

Bought this wheel arch liner: 1 Pair Front Wheel Arch Soundproof Cotton Protective Pad For Tesla Model 3 17-19 | eBay Took a long time getting here. Installation took a little over an hour. No instructions. Pretty obvious how to install it, though it's not clear from the images that the liner...

Weirdest thing happened to me yesterday/last night. I happened to check the Stats app, after midnight, and it showed my battery at 100% SOC. I thought that was strange, the app must be flaking out, since I've never set the charge limit to 100%. I have it set between 75% and 80% at this time of...

So, I rotated my 18" OEM tires at 6000 miles only to find that the fronts, on both sides, are wearing on the inside shoulders. Presumably, an alignment issue. Usually I check treadwear while filling my car with gas, but now, not so much. I know Tesla can rotate my tires, and being 3+hrs away...
