    Planning at least 20% for the next Supercharging stop while on a trip

    I haven't done a road trip for a while and I notice that as soon as the car is planning less than 20% for arrival it plans an extra Supercharging stop. It seems that before it was not that conservative, am I correct ?

    Dumb to a certain point !

    Ok, I left the side door of my garage opened the other night. I have a M3. A thief penetrated the garage, opened the car (it wasn't locked), disconnected the car from the connector. The thief also looked into the glove box, stole the garage opener, looked into the trunk. But his luck stopped...

    Tires change in Montreal.

    This time of the year again. I wrote Tesla in Montreal to know how much they would charge me to put my Summer tires on. 200$ plus tax ! So I called another place that works often for Tesla, 80$ plus tax. A lot better. Where do you guys in Montreal go and how much do you pay ?

    The app is no longer compatible with your device...

    Then it says to contact developper. That is the message i get from my android phone. Android version 8.1.0. The Tesla app doesn't show anymore in the playstore. I still have it on the phone though. Anybody got the same issue ?

    Somebody scratches my windshield.

    It is not an impact, you can clearly see some circular human made shape. :( Did anybody was able to fix/buff such a thing and how much did it cost ? (MR3).

    120 kw or 150 kw Supercharging

    I thought Superchargers were now charging at 150 at low soc, no pairing of course. So today I was charging from 27% my MR 3 20.4.2, nobody else charging. Initially it went 120 kw and stayed at 120 up to 48%, which is good btw. However I thought it should be charging at 150 at low soc. Am i...

    ELDA

    I just updated the software with 20.4.2 from 8.5. So I remembered so lively discussion about the fact that ELDA couldn't be set off and stays off. I noticed when I finished the update, mine was set to off. So it appears Tesla worked on this issue ? Did anybody else notice a change ? (i haven't...

    Front bumper needs a paint job

    I am planning to get the front bumpers painted because of a few scratches. However I am wondering if usually, one can see the difference between factory paint and something painted. It will be done by a body shop.

    Let's be fair !

    On Wednesday, I noticed that my windshield (mid range 3) was cracked and need to get replaced. I was pretty depressed as I thought it would take weeks to get the new one. On Friday it was fixed ! So let's be fair, Tesla could be very good at getting parts quickly.

    Front bumper.

    Hello, i got my front bumper scratched. I got a couple of quote in already but buffing won't be enough. Wondering if someone got in the same situation and how much was the bill ? Right now I have a quote for 1300 cad, a Tesla approved body shop and 700 cad a not Tesla approved as far as I know.

    Body shop in Montreal

    For those who live on the island : I had a few scratches on the back of the car, probably someone who parked to close. Nothing major but I would like to get rid of them. Does anybody know a good place to get it done ? Thank you,

    Question to owners from the province of Quebec.

    I own a MR. I am planning to install a charger in my garage. However since the wall charger is kind of overkilling for the MR I am thinking of buying another mobile kit and get a 240 v installed in the garage. (I like the idea of having an extra kit). So i am wondering if anybody did the same...

    Charging threshold

    I am bit confused. The car is plugged, no charging scheduled. The outside temperature dropped from 0 to -10c within a few hours. (The car is not in a heated place). So the battery percentage dropped by 7 percent. I thought the charging is supposed to resume past a certain percentage drop ?

    Preheating

    Ok, bear with me, i got my mr 3 yesterday ! So i saw a lot of references about preheating the car and the battery. I figured how to preheat the car but how do you preheat the battery. (The car is in the street). Thanks PS : sorry I put my post in the wrong post. Could a moderator put it...
