My June 2018 build with 19,000 miles has slowly been going up in range. Was as low as 306 at 100%. Now is charging to 311 or 312 at 100%.
No where the 325 stated as the new range.

Vin 49k. Range went from 310 up to 320 on the range increase update. Slowly been going down and now at 11,000 miles I am back at 310.

April 2018 Build w/ 2019.16.2, almost 12k miles - Displaying 325 miles @100%.
Not sure if this matters, but the vast majority of my charging is done on a 120V outlet in my garage (pack balancing?).

Also worth mentioning I’ve only ever supercharged since I’ve had the car. Once a week basically to 80-90%
March 2019 build
1500 miles
325 miles at 100%
300 miles @100%
2720 miles, received in July 2018
2019.16.2 , no % changes from software update
Contacted service center once and they said the battery has no issues.
I've been trying to calibrate my battery by charging to 100% and not charging til under 10%, but I work from home, and afraid that the vampire drain is going to throw off the calibration. I also hear it's not good to keep the battery low for a while.

Well I’m down to 305 at full charge now. Battery range has been slowly decreasing basically daily
11K miles on LR 3 RWD
Charged to 100% showed about 297 mi
Drove 232 mi, showing 231 Wh/mi, showing 15% remaining
Charged to 100% (+ balancing time) Showed 299 mi @ 100%...
Service said to get it well below 10% then back to 100%, so on above charge... (My previous behavior up to the 100% charge has been to live in the 40-85% range for state of charge)
Drove 261 mi, showing 235 Wh/mi, showing 2%/6 mi remaining (I drove quicker toward the end trying to get % down...)
After just under 63 minutes.. showed 302 mi / 100% and +69 kWh, but time remaining as calculating and still showed 15 kW rate..
Another 15 minutes 302 mi / 100% +70 kWh, time calculating and 5 kW rate
Another 25 minutes 303 mi / 100% +70 kWh
Based on rate of this charge, I don't think it 'helped', looks like with 11,100 mi averaging 233 Wh/mi, I'm can't get anywhere near rated range.
Love the car overall but.... If 'tricks' are needed to recalibrate, it would be really nice if the car and/or manual said so... The way I got the above about charging to 100% (and waiting for balance) and discharging below 10% was SMS from Tesla Service guy cell phone; they wouldn't even put it in email)
+ There is no way they don't have all the stats on every battery, local on the car, and back at HQ; shouldn't need me to set a service appointment (which they canceled after saying the above, and to 'check back after another couple low/high cycles'....)

When did your 100% go to 297? Mine used to be about 315-320 and now all the sudden in the last few weeks it has dropped to like 305-309.

That charge was 2019-05-27 that was on firmware 2019.16.2. Likely not related, but the 302 mi charge was on 2019.20.1.

I’m wondering if one of the more recent software updates is responsible for the drop.
