Guys ,

i recently bought Model X Plaid 2022 , for some reason ,car battery is draining like 1mile / 30 mins during idle time & and bery much parked in garage .. Not sure why .. this is happening after recent software update ..
Note :- i have TURNED OFF everything in the car including A/c ,,nothing is on

Anyone having the same issue ? Pls let me know

If you keep checking the car in the app, it will keep it awake, and awake = more battery drain.

If you have sentry mode on, it will keep the car awake (see above sentence)

If you installed ANY third party app on your phone (meaning logged into ANY app with your tesla credentials that isnt the official app, it can keep the car awake (see above)

If you have standby summon on (from FSD) it can add additional drain.

Basically, stop checking on the car via the tesla app, ensure sentry mode and standby summon are off, and that you are not running any third party apps at all (when investigating battery drain).

If already not done, suggest please change the battery SoC to % instead of miles, it will buy you some peace of mind and reduce the range anxiety.

Range is just an estimate based on battery voltage across a lot of cells. The car's computer draws several hundred watts when it's awake.
