My SR+ with only 1000 miles now reads 211 at 90% where it used to read 214. This was immediately after supercharging for the first time. Ive read a few stories about others seeing reduced capacity or odd readings after supercharging.
so Short story that may help some...
Fo the first 4 months or so I charged to 90% every night regardless of where my battery was at. During that time it charged to 279 miles at 90% every night .
About 2 months ago we have the idea that maybe we should only charge when we needed to, so we started charging when the battery got below 50% only and sometimes would go 3 days with no charging. During this time I saw my battery steadily drop to a low of 268 miles at 90%
A month ago I started charging to 90& nightly again regardless of battery status. I have steadily climbed back up and this morning was at 278 @ 90%.
At least my Tesla for this one specific items, likes being plugged in daily it seems.

This is what Tesla has said since day 1.
The early Model S cars had a postcard inside which said “Remember— A connected Model S is a happy Model S!”

I got the exact same thing after firmware updated to 2019.24.4. I had been charging to 90% daily (weekdays) for 1 year. I used up about 140 mils per day. 90% was always at 279 or 280. Now it is at 269 or 270.

Funny that you opened this thread, I just finished charging my car at 90% this morning and decided to check the estimate miles/range and it read 281 miles. On previous updates prior to 2019.24.4 it was at 283 miles. (2 mile different wasn't nothing to be worried about either)
As others posted/mentioned, its just an estimated range and the BMS might need to recalibrate after you drive down to 50% or lower. and recharge/repeat for a few cycles.
I don't think it's any "actual" battery degradation for myself at least. I currently have 16,000 miles.

But you have a RWD? Full range should be 325 so 90% should have been 292?
I have AWD and it was always at 279 with full range 310. The charge right after the update changed it to 270.

Yeah I have RWD but I've gone on a few trip and charged to 100% and the estimated range shown was 313 miles.
I haven't drain my battery to under 40% so that maybe why the BMS isn't calibrated for the new 325 mile range.
Tesla has made it clear that frequent charging is the way to do it right. I have zero loss and stability of range after 5K+ miles and 90% charging every chance I get, certainly daily, sometimes several times a day bumping back up to 90.
