    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    I don't see a need to argue about rates or math. I can now recharge at advertised rates, 3-5 times what I was getting previously. That is all I care about. I'm happy!

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    Certainly not meaningless when I can get 150 miles of range in about 35 minutes!

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    Good news. 120 miles is not needed to warm the batteries, at least in CA. I have no idea what changed. Maybe Tesla really did something when they had my car, even though they said there was nothing wrong? I've charged twice since. Both at the same stall at the same sc and both times were great...

    Geeking out

    I picked up my Black M3 DM LR with 19s. I love it! I've raced many cars on the track, Porsches, S2 and Formula cars, winning the Pro FM series in 1996. On the street, I've owned/driven a number of Porsches, including 2018 911 Turbo S. My M3, although clearly not able to compete with some of the...

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    The idea of having to drive 120 miles to get an adequate charge rate was concerning. How much warmer are things going to get than after 32 miles? This was typical where I'd seen the low rates but I parked at a stall that I'd not used before, after contacting Tesla and finding out that the SCs...

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    Not yet. Work is very consuming this week. Unfortunately it will be next week before I'm able to test everyone's ideas, I've only drive 8 miles this week, I don't think I'll be able to get to 120 Miles in a single trip though-that does sound unreasonable to get sufficient charge rates, unless if...

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    It varies from solid all the way to about 1/3 of the way dashed when starting, and I get the message the brake Regen is limited but rarely have I noticed that during any of my charging woes.

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    Thank you all for the input. I think I've tried all of the hints, except driving hard into the SC. I'll try that next time I supercharge.

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    I do have one at home but I'm afraid to go in a trip because it could take 3 hours to charge from empty to full. That means I either need all kinds of time, which I don't, or I use another car, which is what I've been doing

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    I live in CA do it never gets too cold. This morning was a 7 Mile drive to the SC but I also have seen similar after driving 35 miles from work in the afternoon. I've taken lots of pictures and provided some to Tesla service. I've used multiple SCs: San Jose off Almaden Expressway, San Mateo...

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    Thank you for the post. This morning was 7 Miles to the SC. Often though it is after driving from work so 35 miles.

    Supercharger speed: 116kW

    I'm very disappointed with my M3DMLR's charging speed. I regularly get only 25W which results in about 100 miles/hr. I've tried a number of different locations and different superchargers at each location and with varying levels of current charge and at different hours, often with no other cars...
