Repairing a Flooded Tesla Model S : HOW-TO

[bkp_duke]

I think he's a little bitter about the roadblocks Tesla puts up for DIY car repair. My love affair with Tesla will end too, soon after my warranty expires, if they don't change their ways.

WERD!

Tesla makes a GREAT product, but if you want to support your own car, they give you the BIG MIDDLE FINGER.

lol, someone actually wrote, "You are a disgrace to the Tesla community."?

No Btr, I'll say you are brave for putting yourself out there, unlike many.

It's those who hate on mavericks that are a disgrace. It's why I don't hang out here.

Despite my reservations from the start of this thread (Quantum`), I am proud of you for actually doing a car.

Keep up the great work. This is my all time favorite TMC thread. Your YouTube videos are great as well. Good information as well as being hilarious at times.

Rich, your sense of humor is what keeps me coming back! Don't change for the haters!

I'm sorta relieved the spelling on Dolores was correct on your shirts. I think you and some folks here has referred to her as Delores before but would not have been a proper homage to Ms. Abernathy of WW. Not being a grammar Nazi just making sure your life's work deserves to be accurately depicted.

Fun fact: The name Dolores literally means pain from Latin dolor. It's an apt name based on the journey you've gone through watching your vlogs. Peace!

Holy crap that's a bad day. I probably would've just licked the battery terminals and ended it there.

And ruined a good battery?

good point, better off drinking what's left of the coolant.

Must've been karma for the rant on Tesla owners.

Aren't you not supposed to use distilled water in the coolant? on other EVs using spring water or tap water etc can cause bad things to happen. Might need a flush now.
