... i have close to 7% degradation in 5 months and 4000 miles.
What gives you that impression?

Teslafi
The fanboi is strong with @M3BlueGeorgiaGood luck getting Tesla to honor that warranty.
An extra 5-10 minutes at the SC? Try an extra hour. Per stop. Then factor that into a road trip requiring multiple stops.
Battery degradation is a real issue on older vehicles and Tesla makes it very clear they do not stand behind their product.
Go read some of the 600+ page thread on battery gate/charge gate if you really want an answer.
I have a service appointment in 2 weeks. They will check both HV and12 volt batteries when I’m there.If verified by Tesla, then you may well have a problem with your car.
...You can see the trend line is almost perfectly horizontal. People want that battery. Of course, my battery deg could fall off a cliff tomorrow.
Your post perfectly illustrates the type of attention to the minutiae of battery condition that I don’t understand.
How/why does it matter if your battery loses a percent or two of capacity? What would that change in the ways you’re able to use your car?
How about 7% in 4000 miles and counting.Your post perfectly illustrates the type of attention to the minutiae of battery condition that I don’t understand.

Even if a car loses 10% (20-30 miles) of its range over 5-7 years

True statement ...to the OP my car “lost” 20 miles range at 30k miles it did not affect my usage ...what affects usage more than anything is the BMS calling my SuC speeds ...the net affect is on long drives with multiple supercharger stops I may incur an additional 30min wait time ....other than that I stand by what I said earlier I just use the car as I see fit and charge to whatever I don’t obsess over a number on the screenbecause nothing anyone posts is going to change peoples position on either side of this.
I don't think you read my post at all. I was pointing out why others may obsess about their estimated rated range, since some of us, show no degradation. They wonder why their Model 3 doesn't do likewise. If they ALL degraded at the same rate, then no one would complain; but since some seem to degrade less, then people get upset that they paid alot for a battery that seems worse on average than their peers.Your post perfectly illustrates the type of attention to the minutiae of battery condition that I don’t understand.

I’ll bet that what TeslaFi is telling you isn’t accurate, for the reasons mentioned by other posters in this thread.
I certainly hope that’s the case.
As I stated in the OP, I see zero benefit in obsessing over these details, because worrying about it doesn’t help, and Tesla certainly isn’t going to “fix” a car based on what TeslaFi or other third party softwares say...
Thanks jj. I appreciate your thoughts.The point that @Zcd1 one is making is (not saying I agree or disagree with it btw) is exactly HOW is that "7% over 4000 miles materially effecting your use of the car?" Its most likely not, other than giving you ulsers.
Its not stopping you from driving anywhere, its not materially impacting your ability to use the car, its just a number on the screen that people obsess over AND dont realize that teslafi / stats do not report fully accurate info about, as mentioned repeatedly by people who really understand these batteries and what they see, with things like scan my tesla.
Thats the point he is making, but him (or anyone else) making that point is obviously not going to stop you (or anyone else) from obsessing about it. All its going to do is make people either defend their position, or say tesla is not "helping them because their battery is crap", even though they drive 30 miles a day and their battery may have started with 310 miles but is now 280 (thus doesnt impact them in the slightest other than the number on the screen).
As I said before, I understand why people obsess over the number on the screen, even if its somewhat irrational in my opinion because it doesnt impact them. There isnt anything to discuss here though, because nothing anyone posts is going to change peoples position on either side of this.
I like your post alota lot of people use the word "alot" by accident. I highly recommend grammerly
Strangely, when I was in school, "alot" was still considered acceptable usage. I still type it that way to irk people. If the computer doesn't correct it, that's fine by me.a lot of people use the word "alot" by accident. I highly recommend grammerly
