    Steering U-Joint Lower Shaft Issue and my Solution so far.

    today I finally got the cleaner (WD40 solvent based degreaser) and lube (WD40 PTFE drylube) you recommended and redo again. However, the result is not as good as before with my bicycle chain lube. Maybe I didn't clean it well enough. When you clean the joint with degreaser, did you use brush to...

    Steering U-Joint Lower Shaft Issue and my Solution so far.

    My 2019 Model 3 also developed this symptom, hard stop every 90 degree with loss of power steering sensation, fixed by itself next day after car gets wet. Then found your thread. Super thankful. You just saved me $4100 for replacing the whole steering rack,

    Improved regen brake in cold temp after recent update

    I noticed that my Mid Range M3 has more regen braking recently after last update. Today at 0'C in Toronto, I got almost full regen available. I am not sure if it is because the weather is not as cold as few weeks ago (now is 0'c in Toronto) or its some bugs in the recent update. Anybody has...

    Tesla, TSLA & the Investment World: the Perpetual Investors' Roundtable

    It happened many time on this forum that when someone post that they just sell off on the worst day, its the bottom or near the bottom. Like March, and few weeks ago when Naz went through a multi day sell off. So when I see post like that, it a buy signal for me but too bad I don't have any dry...

    Near-future quarterly financial projections

    Tesla started charging $10 for premium connectivity since May. Considering there are 1M+ Tesla on road right now. Say 50% of Tesla owners sign up, that would be $5 mil profit a month and $10 mils for this quarter. Not sure has this income been considered in the forcast?

    Model 3 MR Battery after 1yr / 12K miles

    Mine is also 1 year old and around 19000km. New was 425km, now is 423km. But it was also at 6% loss until I changed my charging habit. I was doing daily charge to 80%. Switched to 60% charge so that, based on my usage, I can drive it down to 20% and recharge to 60% every two day. After I changed...

    I used to work at GM's infotainment software in Toronto. Its a retirement center. Their old Detroit car maker DNA will never make their effort to shift to smart car business successful unless they bankrupt and restart again with a new DNA.

    Mid Range losing range like crazy. Any benefit to calibration?

    I think you can just try my 60%-20% cycle. It should be safe to do on a routine basis. Not so extreme like 20% to 100%.

    Mid Range losing range like crazy. Any benefit to calibration?

    My mid range was also like OP's situation, losing range again and again and each time 7-10 km. Over time, the range went down 3 times and lost roughly 30-35km (about 6% loss). I was doing 80% charge every other day. So my battery rarely went down to 50%. Last month, I decided to do charge to 60%...

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    it’s the app, Stats, that’s constantly waking up you car in background. I am using Stats and had the problem too. You have to disable background refresh in Stats through iOS setting. Otherwise, your car will never go to sleep.

    What is your MID-RANGE charging to at 90% and 100%

    mine 90% is 223 and 100% is 248. It has dropped 4 times so far since I got the car last year in March. But I think the latest drop is probably due to cold weather in Toronto.

    5% rated range increase for Mid range + 2029.36.

    Thanks for your answer. Yea, I read electrk's post again and did not see any talk about 5% range increases. The 2020 AWD and SR+ will get extra miles. So still wondering any range increase with latest firmware update for SR+ and AWD owners?

    5% rated range increase for Mid range + 2029.36.

    But I remember Elon said all Model 3 will receive 5% increase in power and range. Not sure if 5% more power also translates to 5% better efficiency and therefore 5% more range.

    5% rated range increase for Mid range + 2029.36.

    Just updated my mid range to 2019.36.2.1 and charged to 90% right after update. No range increase at all. Any mid range owner can confirm if MR got the 5% more range?

    V10 and Battery "Degradation"

    My half year old Mid Range lost ~5% way before V10. Instead of losing couple km, I actually gained couple km after getting V10. So I think his range loss has nothing to do with V10. I think the BMS software has bugs and Tesla's QA still has no clue to reproduce it. I did notice something that I...

    Range on midrange reduced to 219 miles

    My first 20-100% also didn't change anything. But the 2nd time, it went up a notch.

    Range on midrange reduced to 219 miles

    did u also do any 20-100% charge? Or just used the battery deeper more frequently?

    Range on midrange reduced to 219 miles

    Just an update. Actually after my 2nd 20-100% charging, the next day, the range went up a notch from 405km to 410km. So I think the 20-100% trick works.

    My model 3 says full at 210 miles

    Tried the battery rebalancing recommended from other threads, it does help to bring the range back. I have a MR.

    I love this car, but.....

    Your 230W/Miles looks very good. I think it is also the w/m Tesla uses for rating the battery range. So ideally, if you drive the car from 100% in one trip, you should get 300-300miles no problem.

    Range on midrange reduced to 219 miles

    was trying to drive down my car below 20% and do the 20%-100% the second time yesterday. The 100% of my MR was around 404km. I also updated the software to 2019.32.2.2in yesterday before the scheduled charge start. After the charge completed at 7am today, its still sitting at 404km@100%. But one...

    Bumper Cover Replacement Cost and Color Match

    Just got quote for part only from them, $1200 CAD (US$900). Still such a huge difference. Does the new bumper come with brand new sensors and light in your case? I haven't ask them yet.

    Bumper Cover Replacement Cost and Color Match

    Strage. I mailed Tesla Toronto Service today and was quoted $1600 Cad (US$1204) for both parts and labor. Did you guys just go in to a Tesla service center and ask and they quoted $880 right away?

    Lost range? Poll

    Last Sunday, I did a same day Toronto - Montreal trip with my MR with battery health curtly at 403km rated range. Also wanted to see if going down to 10% and charge up to 100% will bring back the lost range but no avail. I actually made the battery under 5% twice and under 10% once. During the...

    Lost range? Poll

    2018 Dec MR here with 8500km on ODO. Got it in March 2019. My range loss is getting worse and worst. Range only goes down over time and never goes up. Now 100% estimate is around 400km. About 5.8% loss. After the recently software update 2019.28.3.1, the Wh/km usage is also getting higher...

    Lost range? Poll

    I think you should use % instead of miles in your question because 5% loss in LR pack is 15.5 miles but it’s 13.2 miles in MR pack.

    Sudden Range Drop

    I also got my MR in 2019 March and also experienced initial range drop in early July. Since then, the range dropped 2 more times. Now stays at 408km@100% estimated since last OTA update. I think is staying at 408 for 2+ weeks already. Although my timeline is very similar to yours but your drop...

    Batter range reduction after updates

    Although the rated range is now sitting at 407km (257miles), I can very easily get >=200w/Mi on my daily drive especially when we have heat warning issued in Toronto recently. Wondering whether its also due to BMS miscalculation when the battery is rated at 257miles while in fact it is actually...

    Batter range reduction after updates

    I got my MR on 18 March 2019. Got 425km all the time until July 2nd @ 415km. Then stayed at 415km for about 2.5 weeks until 25 July or 26 July @ 410km. 2 days later, it dropped to 405km. So the 415 to 405 happened very quickly in about couple days only. Basically, the range dropped from 425 -...
