    2016 Model S Unlimited Supercharging Removed

    That was your mistake, you sent them the sales agreement. I held off until the car was registered in my name and only sent them that

    2016 Model S Unlimited Supercharging Removed

    Which is why when I bought mine (from a Toyota dealer) I told Tesla it was a private party sale. Tesla has (incorrectly) removing FUSC from cars being resold from dealers, even if they haven’t gone through Tesla. Seems they feel that it’s transferable only in private party direct sales

    Need Advice: Out of Warranty Tesla 2013 Model S P85 110K Miles

    If you think you’ll recoup your money no. If you like driving it, it’s less expensive than replacing and you are willing to risk a battery pack in the future, worth it

    HV Battery failure! 2014 S85 with 43,000 miles, single owner car

    Good point - I don't have the correct equipment for Scan My Tesla. That said - Recurrent report shows maybe 3 miles loss over 60k miles since I purchased and as I said Teslafi seems happy. I will openly agree that neither is an in depth analysis. Anecdotely, I have seen no meaningful changes...

    Spotify Issues after Infotainment Upgrade

    HV Battery failure! 2014 S85 with 43,000 miles, single owner car

    Would be interesting to have 057wk chime in on this. I have wondered too if it's just anecdotal that low mile Teslas seem to have more battery issues or not. Suspect 057 has some statistics gathered on this. In my case I have a 2015 with 132k miles. I drive it hard an often. Peform about...

    HV Battery failure! 2014 S85 with 43,000 miles, single owner car

    I would disagree. There is plenty of usability left in that vehicle. My only concern (as an early RWD) is that what is the condition of the drive motor. That should be inspected for coolant leakage before popping for a battery. You don't want to have a drive unit failure right after...

    HV Battery failure! 2014 S85 with 43,000 miles, single owner car

    I'll start by saying I usually don't defend Tesla. However, other than manufacturer 'good will,' really Tesla (or any other car manufacturer) has any obligation in a situation like this. A warranty is a contract. Whether you drive the car a lot or a little, it's for a a defined time period...

    Spotify Issues after Infotainment Upgrade

    Seems to be a software issue recently with Spotify. Have not had this issue, but have had (usually after getting back into the car during the day) where Spotify will give me the spinning wheel and not load anything new. If I do the 'two-button reboot', after the MCU restarts it will work again...

    Tesla charged me for warranty service 2022 MSLR

    I would respectfully disagree. If the car is relatively new, and under the bumber-to-bumper warranty, rattles better well be done. I've claimed that on numerous new cars (not just high end). A rattle means something is not assembled correctly. This isn't a 20 year beater, it's supposed to be...

    any evidence rush for 2016 S 100's SC01 is becoming false fever?

    I would love to know how you figure the ‘average’ owner uses less than $200 per year. With the continual increases in supercharging rates, I’d easily be paying the same per mile as my old gas car if I didn’t have FUSC.

    Opinion: Tesla should partner with another OEM for NACS or be forced into CCS someday.

    From what I understand they are getting infrastructure funds as part of the opening their network As one who has used the other networks, yes they are that crappy

    CCS retrofit service center availability for 2018 Model S?

    FWIW - I had my 2015 S retrofitted. Mobile service did it, and had it done within an hour. I would recommend for anyone who has it done, check your AC charging, Super Charging and CCS charging as soon as possible. In my case there were no issues. I charged at a Charge Point and Greenlots CCS...

    Another thread on Mobile Connector or Wall Connector - 14-50 Outlet Question

    Opinion: Tesla should partner with another OEM for NACS or be forced into CCS someday.

    I think this has already been addressed with the MagicDock. I suspect all V4 stations will be MagicDock standard, and that V3 (and perhaps V2) stations will be retrofitted over time. This permits Tesla to take their SuperCharger network from a cost center to a profit center. I do hope (and I...

    Well, Aptera has adopted the NACS. Is that not another OEM, or are you just talking the big guys?

    Battery replacement 11/15 P90D

    Actually that is reasonable. Originally the S90D was rated at 268 and then was bumped up to 290. My s90D is a pre-facelift. I purchased it at 70K miles and have monitored the battery with TeslaFi since I purchased the car. In that time of seen basically no degradation and the car has been...

    Tesla model S battery Failed

    Salvage cars: Tesla permanently disabling SC from supercharger

    Your lack of logic screams Tesla fan boy! Bottom line for me (and I don’t own a salvage car). Rebuilt titles are there because states recognized that salvage vehicles can be fixed (salvage as a designation only means it was not deemed economically feasible to fix). If you have FUSC, I would...

    Setec CCS to Tesla Adapter

    Quick question I have a ‘15 S vehicle software. 2022.12.3.2. Car is nagging me to install 2022.16.3. Seeing as I’ve lost use of my Setec before, hesitant to update. Anyone with an earlier S running 2022.16.3 successful with the Setec?

    Setec CCS to Tesla Adapter

    Setec CCS to Tesla Adapter

    Tried at a EVolve NY station. (BTC Power). With 164-1 got an isolation test timeout fault. It did work when I flashed to 164 I’m still pissed that the max charge is 50kw (used to be like 76kw before the software change last summer )

    Setec CCS to Tesla Adapter

    Before I pull the trigger and let the car go to software 2022.12.3.1, has anyone had success with the Setec and this firmware. Ever since my last firmware upgrade the Setec has not worked on both their firmware 164 and 164-1. Annoying, as it worked fine before that
