    advice on extended warranty

    Had a MB SL AMG and purchased extended warranty The car was a service nightmare. Paid for the warranty many times over. The fee on that warranty was, in part, based on mileage of car. Lower the mileage lower the premium. I don't remember name of company.

    Model S not charging

    No messages color solid blue. I recycled the wall charger by turning the breaker off and on and that solves the problem for the time being thanks for your reply.

    Wipers turn on while on Autopilot

    Mobile service Windshield replacement

    Had it done on model 3 in my garage. Tesla referred me to a 3rd party claiming they did not have the part. Excellent job Calibration was done automatically by the car while driven

    Realistic range Model 3 standard battery single motor

    Thank you all for your well reasoned replies. Given interstate speeds in az (75), battery degradation over time, and variables that are generally negative for range, the long range would be the right thing to do.

    Realistic range Model 3 standard battery single motor

    Realistically, what is the range of a model 3 standard battery single engine at summer highway speeds. Can you easily get 200 miles without too much anxiety?

    Has anyone heard of a Tesla being rear ended because of phantom braking?

    Filing NHTSA complaint is way to go. That will elevate the problem in Tesla world

    Phantom Braking

    Is Tesla devoting significant resources to fix this problem? If not, why not. If so, with millions of miles of experience in their neuro net or whatever you call it, why isn't this fixed!

    Peeps with 2 wall chargers in garage

    I have power shared a 50 amp circuit for 3 years without any issues. If each car was driven 200+ miles a day, you might have an issue getting both cars recharged.

    Mirrors won't deploy

    I have a 2022 Model Y. When I first set up Homelink, I had the mirrors collapse when it entered the garage. I quickly learned that the mirrors would not open when the car was put in reverse. A real pain having to do it manually each time. I decided to go into homelink and uncheck the box that...

    Phantom Braking

    For 2+ years my Model S had no phantom braking. In the last week it has happened 5 times with no hazards or other cars anywhere near the vehicle. Service says the hardware is functioning correctly and cancelled my service appointment saying an over the air update will address this problem...

    Diminished Value Claim question

    Before retirement, I handled these cases in Arizona. The first thing you should do is check to see if your state authorizes compensation for diminished value. For those that allow this component of damages, it is available only from the 3rd party carrier(at fault parties insurance company)...

    Phantom Braking 2020 MS

    Experienced multiple episodes of phantom braking on an interstate highway. I was doing 75 with cruise on a straight stretch of interstate, around noon and no cars in front or back, when car began braking to about 45. I tried re-booting but it happened several more times. Tried disabling all...

    Cudos to Tesla TPM on cell app

    I am excited to see the tire pressures for the model S in the controls sub-menu of the Tesla app. What a time savings. Note the readings represent values the last time you were within bluetooth range of your car. Unfortunately, this feature is not yet available for the model 3 or y

    Tire rotation best practices?

    Tesla ranger came out and rotated my tires. He also checked the air pressure and topped off wiper fluid. Took 45 minutes and the charge was $65. Great service! As an aside from tire wear on model s was greater than rear. Contrary to most any vehicle I have owned.

    Lifetime Average Wh/mi

    Less tire pressure means greater surface area making contact which means more resistance (more traction too) and hence more watts/mile

    "Proactive" 12v battery replacement - good idea or overkill?

    Sorry if this has already been stated but my M3 gave me message that the battery was going bad, before it went bad, enabling me to schedule the mobile ranger for a replacement under warranty. With an ice vehicle, the first warning you get is when the car won't start. No need to be proactive

    Outside mirrors misbehaving

    When I approach my garage door the outside mirrors close. I am good with that but when I try to leave the garage they do not reopen. In fact, when I open mirrors either with verbal command or using touch screen, the mirrors open but as soon as a put car in reverse the mirrors collapse again...

    Uncomfortable driver seat?

    I have owned and NSX, Porsche and Mercedes SL and the one thing common with all those cars was firm bolster that would keep you in the seat when making a high speed turn. The Model Y seat I believe was designed in the spirit of a sports car and not a medium size SUV. In a sports car you...

    Model Y - Gigafactory Texas Production

    the 4680 battery configuration is inferior from a consumer point of view to the current pack used in Freemont production. If the price was the same for each variation, the choice is a no brainer.

    My Foray Into Waterless Washing

    Used Meguires auto detailer on my motorcycle for years. Looked great! I imagine if you look at the paint under a microscope you will see where I scratched the paint with trapped dust particles, but who looks under a microscope. I'll use it on the Model Y if I ever get it. od 9/30

    Average Wh/mi since owning?

    That cool/cold climate in the UK sure does a number on your efficiency. In Arizona my M3 LR rear wheel lifetime was 246 watts/mile I guess ac uses less juice than the heater

    Minimizing Whr/mile

    250Kw Supercharging nuances?

    You will notice the same slowing as you approach 90% while home charging. The goal in this type of travel is to compute the shortest time from point A to point B You will find charging to something less that 100% will get you to your destination must faster.

    The public does not understand EV range

    Unless you return battery where you started, it would require a fleet like u-haul for one way or round trips. I doubt this would fly given the mindset of our citizenry; K.I.S.S.

    The public does not understand EV range

    I would use the Tesla trip planner in your car to determine when to stop and for how long. We usually leave a charger when there will be an estimated 20% left in the tank at our next charge or destination.

    Homelink for Model Y - Is it worth it?

    You pay 60k+ for a luxury car, seems logical to pay $300 for this luxury feature. Love the geo-sensing feature.

    The public does not understand EV range

    The vast majority of the general public have no experience with the ev and the factors effecting range. They think of EV range as they would with an ICE vehicle. They assume the more highway driving the better the mileage. The public has no idea that just the opposite is true with EVs given...

    Supercharger - Yuma, AZ - South Fortuna Road

    When I did Phoenix to San Diego, Fortuna was our preferred place to stop to break up the trip. In fact we stopped at the very gas station listed in the above address. This would be a perfect location for a 250kw SC. It is convenient to bathrooms and provides multiple food options while...
