Not sure if this is a problem experienced by many, but I've had TeslaMate running for my car since I got it and over the past 2 years I have noticed that it has spontaneously woken itself up to charge the 12v battery after several days, which then progressed to every 48 hours, and recently every 24 hours. I barely drive my car - having only done 2775 miles in those 2 years - so the car is sat idle most of the time, so it's easy for me to notice that these wakeups correlate to 12v recharging. Tesla even confirmed it for me when I provided timestamps of when it was doing it.
All well and good so far - the car is maintaining the battery, stopping it from dying and me being unable to get into the car.
Unfortunately, since receiving 2022.4.x, the car no longer behaves this way. As of this post it has been asleep for 60 hours. On the basis that I can't imagine the 12v battery has suddenly stopped needing to be topped up every 24 hours, when it was behaving like that for several weeks, I'm getting a bit concerned.
I know if I talk to Tesla they'll just spin me a line to say that the car knows when to wake up and will do so when it needs to - end of story. That's all well and good until I can't get in to the car.
I have got cold feet after about 48 hours asleep previously, and woke the car with the app. When I do this, the car will stay awake for 2-3 hours each time, which suggests it really does need to charge the battery but is in such a deep sleep that it's not doing it itself. I am reluctant to leave it much longer than 60 hours on the off chance that it depletes the 12v so much that I can no longer get in.
I should add - if I leave the car plugged in to the charger it seems to wake up every 24 hours at the scheduled charging time to see if it needs to charge, and in so doing will recharge the 12v then - judging by TeslaMate. I don't really want to have to leave it plugged in if I don't need to though, as it's not going anywhere.
In my opinion there's definitely been a change of behaviour in 12v topups - which looks to me like a bug - for the simple fact that, as said before, I can't conceive of a scenario where the car needed to wake up progressively more regularly (few weeks -> every week or so -> every 48 hours -> every 24 hours) to top up a degrading battery, and now it suddenly doesn't.
Any thoughts gratefully received
