    Battery degradation - 2019.32.2.2

    I have... This'll be my second winter (took delivery in 9/2018). There was no range drop last winter; this seems to be an new thing (see the earlier dates in the attachment below). For sure there is some temperature correlation. I think a lot of us are confused because the estimated range...

    Battery degradation - 2019.32.2.2

    Yep, I have. That's what prompted me to look at my numbers. Of course, the proof to would come around March. Once the temperatures start trending up, we should expect to see improved range estimates. Should that be the case, I'll feel a lot better that there is nothing physically wrong with the pack

    Battery degradation - 2019.32.2.2

    Very very very very curious... I always thought the estimated 100% range was a constant multiplied by actual pack capacity in kwh (does not adjust for temperature / driving conditions, etc...). I believe this to be the case for older SW versions. However, like others, I've been seeing rapid...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    LR RWD; 40xxx VIN; 7/18 door date; ~14K mi showing approx 8% degradation (worse than my Gen 1 Leaf). Sudden rapid degradation in the last 500 miles, no significant correlation to SW versions. Battery has been babied. No supercharges (ever); 48A HPWC daily charge to 80% for most commuting days...

    Press-to-hold brakes won't engage after 2019.28.1.3

    @Apprunner I did when I first noticed the issues. It did not resolve the issue at the time. I also tried putting the car into park and shifting out of it. @JasonR67 Yeah that was me as well. Brake hold started working suddenly when I left work yesterday. Based on what I've read elsewhere, it...

    Press-to-hold brakes won't engage after 2019.28.1.3

    Creep is off for me. I've asked around and most people are *not* reporting issues with the latest update, so it could just be my car. I've been told to try turning creep on and back off again to see if the problem resolves. Looks like I made a dyslexic error in the title, I'm 2019.28.3.1 not 1.3

    Press-to-hold brakes won't engage after 2019.28.1.3

    As per the title, I can't get the brakes to hold the car any more at traffic lights or hills. I rebooted (2 steering wheel buttons + brake) but that didn't resolve it. It may be purely co-incidental with the software update, but my car started doing that on the next drive after the update. Has...

    Frustrated with repeated reschedule, need to take action.. Please suggest

    ROFL, funny you say that. I also test drove the Bolt. Then when they started quoting numbers, the TM3 was only 15% more AND they said I wouldn't get it until next year (none on the lot). It was a no-brainer. I went the next day and ordered my TM3 sight unseen. They had the audacity to call me...

    Frustrated with repeated reschedule, need to take action.. Please suggest

    4 cancellations, 1 config change due to silver not being available any more, latest development is VIN removed from account due to "malfunctioning airbag sensor" no new delivery date. This ****ing blows. Amen. I drive a Leaf24. The only reason I'm ordering the Tesla is because I need a new...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    I don't know how much longer I can take this. I've been really patient and understanding up until now. They just notified me that my delivery is cancelled due to an airbag sensor warning. Now the VIN is gone from my account. That was the 4th reschedule (2nd on this VIN). I want Tesla to succeed...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    I asked my delivery advisor for the Monroney of the 70xx VIN. It confirmed my worst fear: it was manufactured in March. That means no improved windshield, and gen 1 seats. I slept on it then rejected the next day after getting some second opinions. I'm sure the car was a fine car, but it just...

    MVPA lists odometer at over 1300 miles

    Hmm, I just got my new MVPA after changing VINs. The odometer is blank final price sheet. Yes, I'm 100% sure this is MVPA and not the "order agreement". It is complete with the vehicle VIN... Anyone see this before? My old MVPA had the standard 50 miles.

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    The windshield was re-designed to substantially reduce wind noise at highway speeds. Tweet from the man himself: Twitter The original complaint Musk was referring to: Tesla Model 3 Falls Short of a CR Recommendation There are aftermarket solutions for the older vins: Model 3 Windshield Wind...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    The VINs were fairly linear up until ~50,000 then they started having big gaps: This was compiled by one of the forum members here. I would take it with a huge grain of salt as it is all data reported by forum members, not official data from Tesla. Yikes, I would be too Yes, with 99%...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    Well, they won't give me a new VIN. I told them I'm willing to wait as long as needed, or even pay the $500 order change fee and change the color to get a new VIN. No joy. My only option is to reject the delivery on Monday at the delivery center. Or just put up with the noisy windshield and...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    I've heard of cars passing through LNR Auto Transport's locations, but I don't think they have a way to check the VIN online.

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    Of course, but in this case, Tesla has made fairly significant changes which improve the comfort of the vehicle. I wouldn't consider the seat re-design and windshield re-design to be minor "rework". Generally the established automakers won't make changes like this within a model year. If Tesla...

    I don't have it yet. My DS is not responding to me.

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    Definitely not confirmed. Tesla does batch the runs. Given your configuration (MSM, RWD, EAP) my best guess is that they matched you to a vehicle built in the June/July time frame. The only way to be certain is to get the Monroney sticker. June is not a bad build date, BTW. That VIN will have...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    I've been relentlessly searching for any and all information. Normally its people b***ing about a month old VIN. I'm livid that I've been assigned a 7-month old VIN. I've been checking daily with the delivery companies frequently mentioned on this and other forums. This search on UnitedRoad...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    OK, the plot thickens. I just found out my VIN was moved from the Tempe AZ service center to CA. This means I almost certainly will not get my vehicle on 9/24. This means it was almost certainly a reject. It also means that battery pack was almost certainly sitting in AZ hot weather for months...

    Battery life

    Aside from infant mortality, I would expect the M3's battery to last quite a while given the active thermal management. Here is my personal experience: I have a 2013 Leaf (mfg. date is early 2013) with 40K miles and the SoH is 88% (obtained via OBD-II diagnostics). The leaf has no thermal...

    Wiki Model 3 Order Tracking Spreadsheet

    I'm getting this VIN in September: 5YJ3E1EA2JF0070xx I can think of 3 possibilities: 1. This was an unused VIN batch (unlikely for 6 months) 2. This was a show room model (unlikely because they've only recently started getting floor models) 3. This is a substantial rework which required...

    Time from delivery scheduling to VIN?

    My account still shows my RN and not the VIN, but I got my MVPA early in the week. The VIN is inside the MVPA. Configured 9/5, delivery scheduled 9/7 for 9/21, delivery canceled 9/12, postponed to 9/24, MVPA on account 9/13 (still only shows RN, but VIN in MVPA).

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    I found this document while searching to see who has low VINs: Model 3 Order Tracker #2 (Troy: There are a few identical files to avoid overcrowding) I don't know who put that together, or how accurate it is, but it looks like people are still getting mid 50's VINs delivered. It doesn't look...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    Out of curiosity, those of you who have taken delivery, what was the odometer reading on your MVPA document? Just out of curiosity... Mine lists 50 miles.

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    OK, so I politely requested the following information from my DS. Let's see what Tesla has to say about it. - What is the manufacturing date of this vehicle ("born date")? - Confirmation that this vehicle has the second generation seats - Charge history of the battery since manufacturing %SoC...

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    So the question is, do I refuse delivery. Especially if it has gen 1 seats. That may be enough for me to refuse the delivery. I'm going to write my DS to see if I can get the details about the MFG date, charge records, and whether or not it has Gen 1 seats.

    LOW VIN!!! Should I be concerned?

    Y'all are complaining about S/N's in the 20k+ range. I just got my VIN assigned for a LR RWD: 007xxx. I ran it through a VIN decoder and it says it's a 2018, but I have no manufacturing date. I got the delivery scheduled within a day of placing the reservation. Makes me wonder if this is old...
