i've had this Tesla 3 for less than 2 weeks, yesterday it was parked in the sun, i was out on the lake overnight, came back today & the battery charge had dropped 20% overnight & could hear climate system sound, the cabin overtemperature protection was on, i changed it to "NO A/C"

Issue with climate turning itself on during night

Cabin overheat protection, even with A/C will only lose a % or two even on the hottest of UK days. If you lost 20% overnight, it wasn't cabin overheat protection. Also, that would not have been running overnight - it does its stuff very quickly then sleeps periodically, even in full sun.
If you had sentry on (or summon standby etc), that would have accounted for quite a bit, but again still not 20% overnight. Climate/precondition as discussed here would explain 20% though, at least in the non heat pump cars. Otherwise, fan noises at various times are pretty normal, and don't use much in the way of energy.

Thanks, yes i was experimenting with Sentry & it made a rediculous number of files overnight, when i came back to the car this morning, i could hear the heat pump running even though the temperature was in the 60s since the preceeding evening. Although i had a Model 3 Dec 2020 through June 2021 i got some things to learn about this one !
I wanted to let you know I finally spoke to someone at Tesla Yesterday and finally understood there is a bug. After many tries and people just saying to reboot they finally acknowledged there is a bug.

To be fair I said to reboot and try a few other things and THEN raise it with Tesla if that does not work.
You would feel a right numpty going all the way to a service centre for something that would be fixed by a reboot so I stand by that advice.
Glad they at least acknowledged the issue now. Are they going to fix it?
This is now happening to me as well. Model 3 with less than 1200 miles on it. First time was fixed by pushing the update by LTE from service team remotely. Now another software update is available and it happened again last night... Eats 25 miles of range per day and turns on the heat full blast ( HI ) at 1am.
Update: Tesla service says that 12 devices were logged into my account. They force logged them out, leaving 3 devices (still 1 more than should be). I changed my account password, and now this problem is happening about 3-4 times PER DAY... at 25 miles of range hit per occurrence, this is completely unsustainable.
And there is no software update available this time, Tesla pushed all of them via LTE. This is an incredibly frustrating and costly problem. If this continues, I'm going to enact my state's Lemon Laws and take the thing back for a full refund. Really disappointing to see such a great company go so far down hill since I had my 2017 S

DFD - how can I get my maintenance team to admit this is a bug? And more importantly, fix this issue?
Surely they must be able to identify these 12 "devices", i.e. where they're coming from and what they are identifying themselves as? Otherwise they're basically saying that potentially 11 entities have illegitimate administrative access to your vehicle?
As I understand it, and I might be wrong, but there was talk that changing your account password not necessarily invalidating access tokens.. perhaps that is what is happening here. Unfortunately there's no way I know of actually disabling LTE access to your car, so if these entities are making it wake up then it will continue, even without WiFi access.
It would be interesting to find out what happens with your car if you parked it somewhere where there was no mobile coverage, e.g. an underground car park. I don't know how practical that would be for you, but it would be interesting and possibly helpful to discover whether the car is waking up of its own volition, or because it's being told to wake up by something.

Changing the password will stop them, won't it? (Well, unless they are from Tesla HQ for some reason.
I thought that too, and in my experience it does, but at the same time I am very selective about the apps I use (just TeslaMate)
There is this too...
How to revoke v3 tokens - Changing password won't do it!
Hello all, I recently got a question from a member in our (Spain) community. His Tesla wouldn't sleep. I asked if he was using any 3rd party apps; he was: Eevee, Tesla watch and other(s) he couldn't remember. So, no wonder why the car was not sleeping. I advised the usual "Change your Tesla...

Perhaps the token invalidation is a bit unreliable? I dunno, I'm out of ideas.
