    MY erroneously listed as salvage. Supercharging disabled and warranty voided

    So my VIN was erroneously (or fraudulently) used on a salvage title in another state (police are investigating). Now supercharging is disabled and the warranty voided. The service center wants $850 for the 1st inspection to reenable supercharging, no word on the second inspection. I would think...

    Planning a Road Trip. New to SuperCharging

    I am planning a 600 mile trip in my MYP. I have only used LVL 2 charging, to date. I'm planning on hitting a SC or three for this trip. In looking through the onboard Navi, I can see the prices of the SCs in my area. I'm posting 2 pictures so you can see what I see. I'm assuming that we...

    Tesla Model S 2015 70D slow charging - CCS upgrade

    Hi everyone, I am new to this forum. Recently bought a second hand Tesla Model S 70D from 2015 with free supercharging. I have two questions: - I am getting only charging rates up to 35 kW, is this normal? It seems slow to me... I have read about lower SoC and higher charging rates yes, but...

    A simple way to make everyone happy with super charging idle fees

    Here is a simple way to make everyone happy with super charging idle fees: don't charge them unless the initial projected time to charge has passed. If we hookup to the supercharger and it initially says 45 minutes to charge to the rate set, what excuse could we possible have if idle fees are...

    Supercharging for an Early Model S - Can't Tesla do the right thing?

    I was an early investor in Tesla (pre IPO). On April 17 of 2014, I purchased a Model S for $80k+. I currently have 31k miles on the car. When I purchased the car, I decided to not pay the $2.5k for unlimited Supercharging (SC) since I installed a home charger and was planning on only using the...

    Rebuilt Supercharging and High Voltage Certification

    I repaired a wrecked 2020 M3P last year and was excited to see that Tesla offered a process for allowing cars back on their supercharger network. I scheduled a service to have that inspection performed and the car passed. As part of that process, they have to pull the HV battery and inspect...

    Supercharging “clunks”?

    I charge at home and don’t often go on long trips. When I do, and stop to supercharge, I hear and feel random clunks coming from under my car. Should I be concerned? Is it due to the battery expanding from the heat of charging? Or???

    Trying Verify if a Tesla has Transferrable Unlimited Supercharging

    I am looking at a 2017 Model S 90D, (originally delivered in 2/2017, with single owner) from a dealer who tells me that it has supercharging and it's transferrable. They have verified that it does not get charged when they plug it in at the local supercharger. However, I've read that if the...

    "A" Pack upgraded to "D" pack - slow supercharging

    Not sure where to post this exactly. My 2012 S 85kw "A" pack was replaced with a "D" pack. Yay me! (Thanks Tesla!!) When I supercharge I never get close to 90Kw let alone 150 or 250 Kw. Did Tesla forget to flip a virtual dip switch? Is my 2012 too old to support higher charging despite the...

    Super Charging Etiquette

    Newbie here, just wondering what Supercharching etiquette dictates. I don’t want to offend anyone by parking beside them. I read you should leave space just wondering if I should wait when there is only one space left. How does parking beside someone affect both drivers? Thanks.

    Supercharger - Dayton, OH - Austin Landing (speculation)

    I'll open up a discussion as I have word that Tesla is looking to install a supercharger at Austin Landing. Being so close to the juncture of I-75 and I-675 and the close proximity to shopping and restaurants this is an ideal location. This is where I think the Dayton Supercharger will be that...

    Transfer of Ownership Process - Supercharging

    I just bought a 2015 MS 85 from a small independent non-Tesla dealer. They knew very little about EVs because they normally sell trucks, but the dealer was selling the Tesla on behalf of his neighbor. The previous owner didn’t know what free supercharging even was, but I have every indication...

    Do different model years have different top supercharging speeds?

    Surprisingly I couldn't find a straightforward answer to this question online: I have a 2017 Model X 75D - Will my car be able to take advantage of the 250 kW speed or are older models limited to a different number?

    Accidental disconnect wouldn't let me finish charging to 90%

    Due to "high usage" Tesla lowered my charge limit from 90% to 80%, so I set it back to 90% and went shopping. When I thought the app showed 90%, I walked back to disconnect; but I misread the 80%. I didn't know because I just unplugged my car upon arrival; when I opened the door, I saw it was...

    End of June delivery, still no free supercharging

    What is more damaging to the battery?

    I am going on a road trip and am wondering, which one is more damaging to the battery -- slow charging to 100% at home, or slow charging only to 90% but then supercharging extra 10% than otherwise? I understand that both charging to 100% as well as supercharging have negative effects on battery...

    EV and ICE enthusiasts: Can't we all just get along??

    Did you know the 3 heats the battery (actively) constantly while DC charging at any speed or temp?

    I bet you didn't. I'll bet you're thinking right now, "no, that's nonsense, that can't be right, let me get in this thread and tell this idiot off". Or maybe "what makes you think that, where'd you get that data?". Perhaps "no, that's just because DC charging causes the battery to heat up"...
