Just drove through first major snow storm in the Tesla and found a couple of things that maybe others can shed some light on so I can be more prepared for the next storm.
I have the cold weather package. But even turning on the wiper heaters I still get ice accumulation on my wipers. This would cause areas on the windshield to not get cleaned reducing visibility.
To try to combat this. I turned on front defrost to max by double tapping the defrost button. The car cabin temperature got unbearably hot and I was running at about 1000wh. But it still did nothing to melt the ice on the windshield.
The wiper heater turned off every 15 minutes. Same with rear defrosters. Kind of annoying as I would have to reactivate while driving in the snow.
My feet were still frozen even while the cabin was lava hot.
Overall how do I balance everything so I can see and not be on fire but with frozen feet?
Thanks.
Ps. I drove about 40 miles. Used 160 miles in range.
