    Your opinion on this MYP?

    Re: #1, what was the temperature when the regen braking wasn't working? It fades appreciably in colder temps -- doesn't have to be below freezing.

    Model 3 Mid Range battery at 50K mi

    Late 2018 M3 Mid Range at 50K miles now shows 235 miles max range, down from EPA 264 miles (although 261 was the most I ever saw). So, that's down ~10% from new. The curve is flattening but still going down. Any similar or different experiences among Mid Range owners?

    Creaking sound in Model 3

    Thanks, that makes sense. Will see what happens when it dries out.

    I charged at the Whitmore site one time -- in early January. It's been down ever since, as far as I can tell, so nearly five months. Pretty disappointing.

    Creaking sound in Model 3

    To clarify, the conditions were typical wet streets with puddles here and there. Nothing extreme, but enough for frequent splashing.

    Creaking sound in Model 3

    I drove our Model 3 Midrange RWD through a good bit of water today following a heavy rain. Afterward, the suspension on the front-left side began a dull creaking when it was compressed or decompressed -- going over bumps and rises. Seems like some lube may have been washed off (?).

    Firmware 8.5

    I haven't really figured out the rollout schedule for these updates -- I'm still on 2019.5.15 and to my knowledge never received the 2019.8.3 push, much less the 2019.8.5. Any insights?

    Model 3 crazy vampire drain

    Just got a new Model 3 ten days ago and am experiencing exactly what you are. 100+ miles a week of charge loss is significant and borderline alarming. It hasn’t really posed any problems but I’m paying for those electrons.

    Supercharger - Fort Worth, TX

    This site is up and running, and is fortuitously located a half-block from the M&O Grill, one of the best burger joints in DFW. M&O also has a funky little museum attached. Lots of ICE cars are using the Supercharger slots for routine parking, unfortunately, but there were still chargers...
