Tesla Motors Club

I had something happen on my 3 this morning that has never happened on my S.

My commute involves a 1800' climb over a pass followed by an 1800' descent. I usually get a couple kWh back going downhill (although I spend a lot more than that on the climb).

This morning it was raining and about 50°. I started with a normal 90% charge and there was nothing unusual about leaving the house and climbing, but about halfway down the descent I got a limited regen notice. Usually I never have to use brakes descending unless traffic forces me to, but now I had to occasionally apply light pressure to slow enough for some of the downhill curves. I had a fair amount of regen, but definitely not full. When I reached level ground at the bottom of the mountain the warning went away.

Has anybody else gotten a limited regen warning descending when nothing else should have caused it (too warm to be temperature and the battery wasn't close to full).
