Range loss regained - but no idea why.
1. software update in May?
2. charging to 80% rather than 90%?
3. COVID antibodies?
3. anybody's guess?

Nov 2018 M3D Extended Range 26400 miles
two road-trips 1600 and 1000 miles.
all home charges other than V2 superchargers on the road-trips
Two charges to 100%
Is this rather steady loss and recovery common?
The X axis on the graph is heavily truncated, but even so...
2020 LR AWD with 18” wheels, never used the aero caps. Took delivery in Dec 2020 now with ~4.5k miles. Got about 310 wh/m in the winter months (Ohio). Now down to 283 wh/m since delivery.
this is the kind of weird **** everyone is talking about here.
the cold weather doesn't seem to preserve batteries the way it did with the earlier chemistries.
I have a 2020 LR Model 3. I bought it in March and it is supposed to be getting 322mi. I never charged it to 100% until today. It is stating only 307mi. I only have just over 3000 miles on it. This is a 5% loss in range if the numbers are correct. I'm a bit concerned. Running 2020.28.6. I usually charge the battery to 80%. I only charged to 100 because there maybe rolling blackouts soon where I live in CA. I have never let it get down below 100 mi range. Do I need to drain it down to 10 mi or so and then charge to 100%?
Thanks, LG
No. According to what Tesla published it is of zero benefit to drain the battery to a low SOC then charge to 100%.I have a 2020 LR Model 3.

For what is worth, I did try to schedule an appointment to have them look at my Mid Range battery. They did a remote diagnostic, confirmed the 14% loss, and then cancelled the appointment since they said it's within spec. Oh well

Did they put that capacity loss in writing? Willing to share an (anonymous ?) service .pdf?
I only hear them dodge my questions and telling me actual capacity is Tesla secret (even though I have ScanMyTesla, of which they don’t know, that confirms our -13.8% loss in the SR+ model 3, which was pretty much INSTANT, 10% was after delivery )
At this rate you could have your battery changed if you hit 30% loss within the garantee...
Anybody got any new theories to explain this battery capacity graph of my 2018 M3LRAWD? One theory is that Tesla reprogrammed the BMS at about 13K miles to clip/cap the max voltage to which the cells were charged, causing that drop from 310 to abt 293-294. It appears to have recovered some of that loss & is now showing about 302-303 at 19.3K miles.
