I tested the following scenario out recently.
1. Navigate to supercharger (chosen directly via icon with supercharger location and number of available stalls) and highway driving at steady reasonable speed. Plugged in with 50% SOC, got 28 kW charge rate.
2. My normal full accelerate / full regen and repeat for a few minutes leading up to the supercharger location, no navigation set. Plugged in at 30% SOC and got 80 kW, was ~ 55 kW at 50% SOC.
This result, while not exact or scientific leads me to continue my manual battery warming method as I don't believe the navigate to supercharger is effective on my "classic" 2013 Tesla S85 at least.

My battery is always over 99F when I start charging.
Battery temp doesn't make a difference for me
DJRas,
I have seen a few random posts where people say Service Centers have said they are working on a "fix" for these type of issues and it should be in a firmware update in the next 5 or 6 weeks type of thing. Have you seen any of those? Given you are involved in the Class Action have you received any messages to that affect yourself?

No, I have heard nothing about new updates to address these issues since August.

They told me this back in July. No solution. Their next contact called it normal degradation and said everything is normal.

Here is my recent charge cycle where I hit 120+kW.
The battery was very warm to start (101F).
The blue trace is the active battery cooling - so cooling did not start until the pack hit 115F.

In my experience, it does seem to depend on the supercharger that I visit. It's not just whether I'm paired with another charging car, the superchargers themselves seem to vary. This one was one where I never have got >50kW/hr since chargegate.

This thread is a dup of another similar thread.
I believe it's just an indicator line now and have noticed no power difference before or after, it may just be additional info.
At this point I would love to even see that. My last charging cycle on a SuC was 20kW
Does anyone actually see a message about preconditioning the battery like the Model 3 gets? As sad as it is I would actually be happy if I was at least getting what DJRas is getting. Obviously not long term, but right now I get like 20-30kW the whole charge. Painful. I have been texting with Tesla Tech Support as I put in a support request. I am still waiting for their report and it has been over a week. They say they have lots of remote diagnostic back log and will let me know. I will let everyone know if I get any kind of answer other than everything is fine.
I have noticed a pretty significant power difference (decrease). I previously did not get this constant power limiting until ~50 miles of range (at normal temperatures).
How do you know what temp your battery is at, can't find that on my interface anywhere.
It says Preconditioning Battery for Supercharging on the display when you NAV to SuC.

Yes, since I was INFECTED in June with BatteryGate and ChargeGate.
And yes it DOES limit power. I was accelerating onto the freeway and found out the hard way in traffic.
Yeah, passing on the highway is way less than desirable with the limit and very noticeable. That's how I found out. It felt like I got downgraded to my old Camry hybrid's ability.

So help me understand my data....
using the instructions on page one using trip data and state of charge, I calculated battery capacity of my 2014 AP S85 with 41k miles to be 74.8 kwh. Does that mean I am not capped? What should it be?
And yet I can no longer supercharge over about 70 kw, much less than I used to be able to. So I am not a batterygate victim but I am a chargegate victim?
