Nah, there used to be a "Previous Charging Location" marker on the map everywhere you plugged in. So, if you travel through a remote area and find a place to plug in, that would show up and you could navigate there again.

Nope, we just can't have nice things.

Did they completely remove non-Tesla charging locations from the map or am I missing some setting? I've done some searching and can't find this exact problem with so many other problems displaying chargers. I'm looking for places that I have charged before. Not even Home and Work show as...

In Denver? I would be surprised if an idle Tesla would drain so much to not make it to the nearest charger, even if it's a slow charger you'd have to pay airport garage prices for. Consider this: the higher your SoC, the more you have to lose. I recommend pulling in with <20% so that the car is...

How did you do in actual Wh/mi on your trip? The estimate takes into account not being able to regen a full battery, so if you get right on the highway, I'd expect actual mileage would be better. There might be other factors limiting the Wh/mi on the top end. YMMV. The estimate also gets better...

Shudder does not happen on low or very low. 15,531 miles. Description from MVPA: Model X 75D Dual Motor All Wheel Drive Solid Black Paint 20" Silver Wheels Black Standard Interior Multi-Pattern Black Seats Dark Ash Wood décor Black Headliner Five Seat Interior Supercharger Enabled Autopilot...

I got the base model thinking I could pay $20k to upgrade the 75kWh battery to some future awesomeness, but it turns out I actually do want 325 miles range now, so I plan to trade it in for a new LR. Posting here in case anyone wants to make a better offer. Car is in NM, driving it to Denver...

@danix @supertvo Great scripts, but I wonder if there's a user that knows how to use github and cannot create their own one liner to partition their disk? Maybe we should make this a code golf thread.

The problem here was that I was working from memory and reached in from the wheel well instead of popping the front cover. While yanking the cords, I also dislodged a wire that caused a sensor to stop reporting.

Dog stepped on the FOB? Someone used the app to close doors? Your husband had the other FOB in his pocket and didn't know/tell you? The bumper is right at my pocket level, so I end up clicking it often and having the tailgate come down on my head. Several times my doors have stayed open for...

My car was parked out of AT&T service area, so I used the emergency frunk release. I was able to get everything working again after retrieving the fob, but I'm curious why opening the frunk did not set off the alarm. I've been hearing creaking when cornering and the air bag light has been on, so...

Great idea. I got the free Android version, so had to test in Z weighting. Standing a little more than arm's length in front of the passenger headlight, I get 55 dbZ, with a peak at 70 dbZ. This might have been other sound or wind. The fan is definitely louder than the compressor. I guess it's...

Well, I can't. It does not show up for me.

Just remember to lower the suspension when you get back to the highway.

Thanks for all your responses. It does make sense to do whatever the one remote tech says. Definitely want to stay on his good side. I'd call it a whine, but not high pitched. It might be higher than a deep rumbling whoosh, but until yesterday I did think it sounded very much like a fan. It is...

I would rate mine as "annoyingly." My remote tech says it should be replaced, but needs to make the 3-4 day round trip to SC. I think that's more annoying, but if a loud compressor indicates a problem, I'm guessing I should have it done.

I am the only owner for my AP2.5 Model X and also cannot see how to buy EAP or FSD. I was just curious where we were on this roller coaster. Seems if prices are going to keep rising, Elon might have closed the gate in our lane.

Emphasis on "no adapter needed" mine. Is this the only way to avoid unplugging the TeslaCam drive? For me unplugging is more of a pain than bringing it in to my desktop. I can't seem to figure out how to unmount it properly, so it's hit or miss on being readable on my Mac. I tried my phone on...

My car alarm went off during last night's fireworks. There were people seated nearby that also set off Sentry when they were checking it out. Just lights flashed, not alarm. My USB drive was full, so I can't check the video. I do have data sharing on, so I'm hopeful there's a chance Tesla could...

Outside the U.S. Or as stated in the video administrative, supervisor, and testing vehicles. Patrol cars are a subset of police cars.

You did very poorly trying to avoid undue stress. There is no "one time" exception specified in my roadside assistance policy. I guess I won't risk leaving with 5% or less anymore. As I recall I heard this from everyone including my salesperson up to my delivery specialist. FWIW, I popped a tire...

You must not have caught up on my posts, either It could tell you that your current consumption has increased or your expected consumption increased. That's the real question: Did the estimate change because it estimated that you had less battery than expected or that consumption to your...

Does free supercharging affect how you deduct mileage driven for work from federal taxes?

I understand all your reasons for faster charging, but still don't understand your math. Even if you're going 60 mph for 2 hrs, to recharge that 120 mi in 15 minutes means 480 charge mph!

Is your Odyssey really so much faster than your S that you don't get passed? :D

RE: sales specials to transfer the free supercharging for old owners to any new Tesla I don't have the exact date when FUSC became nontransferrable, but it seems long enough ago that this would not affect a majority of vehicles/owners. This proposed offer sounds very similar to the current...

Are you hoping Tesla starts giving out these? So, your answer is no? It's linked previously this thread.

Haha, and I treat it like Jerry's bad movie analogy: You walk out! X owner here, having non-transferrable FUSC, I do feel it's a reason not to sell. But I bought the 75D instead of 100D to invest the difference for a battery replacement 8 years from now. I plan to keep this car until I no...

Oh, you must have missed my post about going over La Manga Pass in a CO snowstorm with an estimated -3% remaining to make it ~80 miles to my destination. It was about ~75 miles back to the nearest PlugShare. You know full batteries have the same number of electrons, right? Your conditions...

800Wh/Mi is normal for 5 minutes? I've never noticed this and routinely average ~350Wh/Mi. Unless I'm trying to go 200 miles. If I could only go 150 miles, I would be sorely disappointed.

This post wins the thread. Just one copy/paste cmd and I'm all set. I'm surprised I am the first to react to it. Not to minimize the OP write up, but anyone having trouble following it can find a friend with a Mac. OK, this one is basically the same and reminds me that it's not quite as simple...

All but the first charge when it was sunny and already hot inside. 20 inch. I chose the least expensive of every option. I will now. Our flat sections can certainly considered "windiest" and that looks to take into elevation, too, which probs caused my biggest scare. I’ve been wishing for...

I called them. No way to park near a plug ):

I signed up to drive someone to Moab thinking it would be a low risk dry run of driving West via Farmington, NM supercharger. From Taos, it’s easy to go South, East or North to Santa Fe, Las Vegas, NM, or Trinidad superchargers, but I was curious how doable Farmington would be. Thankfully, Taos...

If you are pulling into a tight space, why don't you just hit the button to fold the mirrors? Then they'll stay folded until you hit the button again.

I've always seen everything unlock, but usually I just open the driver door. Next time I have a passenger I'll try to remember to get them to try the back door to double check.

Hey Southern Coloradans, specifically @Cottonwood, any news on plugging in at Wolf Creek Ski Area? I live in Taos and plan to make use of the Ski Valley's charger on slow days, just because it's there. I just realized having the charger in the parking lot makes a ski day at Taos possible from...

You two need to meet up for a literal side by side comparison with the same load (adjusted for your weight difference), A/C, range mode, suspension, etc. Maybe if you have different mileage on your tires, that can be considered part of wheel size, but control everything else. Even a front to...

Title pretty much says it, but here's how I made this "discovery:" The center console that flips open (to hold tapes, maybe?) lets thing fall forward to the cup holder area. Some things slide back under and area a pain to retrieve. I didn't want to carry around my whole charge kit and realized...

Do I have to be the one to ask about this? Glad the trip went well otherwise. I'm surprised how much the cold and hills took off your range.

Very interesting. evtripplanner.com (with Model S 75D since they don't have X data) says to stop in Berlin, VT AND Magog, but not Drummondville. I didn't realize ABRP was an actual product instead of a generic term. Good to know they all have differences. One thing you can do while driving is...

CT is a bigger state than I imagined. With a 200 mile range (100%-15% of your 75D) I only see stopping at West Lebanon and Drummondville SCs. Assuming you will need to charge once before West Lebanon, where is the 4th stop? I'm using plugshare's planner. If I could convince my Model X is was in...

My US Model X came in June with all the hardware. I say all since that's what they told me. I have yet to try it out.

Has anyone tried a side window mounted rack? I used to have one of these: Part # SH2 : FK Tools Ski & Snowboarding Tuning Tools, Waxes and Accessories but the window clip sheared off, so I can't try it on my Model X.

This is an appropriate answer to OP, but does not need repeating every time someone has a nerdy observation. I, for one, plan to keep my car for decades, but also stashed the difference I saved between 100D and 75D in my investment account to replace the battery 8+ years down the road. So, I'm...

I'm not a regular commuter, and my X is barely 100 days old, so I have no data to back this up, but my idea is 50% is ideal charge. Obvi when you use the battery, it goes down, so your goal is to hover around 50%. E.g. it's better to daily charge from 40% to 60% than 70% to 90%. I typically aim...

Apparently LTE turns off with a Wi-Fi connection. It doesn't sound like you get Wi-Fi underground either, but maybe you can try connecting to a hotspot, even if that doesn't have internet. You could try disconnecting your hotspot when you pull out of the garage and hope that prompts the car to...

I'll take 1%, Bob, I mean Drew. What this isn't Price is Right? OK, put me down for 18%. I recently left my X 75D at DEN airport for 2 weeks. It was technically still summer when I dropped it at the valet (much less expensive than the garage with charger), so I walked away from it wearing...
