What's the furthest drive you've taken? Based on your battery only giving you 276 miles, it seems you actually do not take good care of your battery. Perhaps what you think is good is actually not good. However, I am not the one to say either way.

I did a road trip this past summer. The longest leg was 195.89 miles.

Since then, the 100% change has degraded an additional ~10 miles.

Interesting. I've driven from:
Detroit, MI to Chattanooga, TN (650 mi, 13hr, 4 charge stops each way)
Detroit, MI to Nashville, TN, (560 mi, 11hr, 3 charge stops each way)
Detroit, MI to North Port, FL (1,300 mi, 26hr, 10 charge stops each way)

Some of these stops I charged to 100%. Most of them only to 80%. I charge to 80% daily. I have a 26 mile round trip commute for work. I use NEMA 14-50 outlet at home.
Took delivery of my car early July 2018.

I can still charge to ~310 miles. I have 21,452 miles on my car.
 
293 here, about 18.2K miles (picked up early Dec 2018). Haven't done a 100% charge in awhile (recent highest was 96%, and would have needed 75 mins to hit 100%), so I'm due to see if that bumps the estimated range.

75% of charges to 80% charge, 24% to 90% charge, 1% to 95% or higher charge. Like many others saw noticeable changes to the estimated range after the infamous fall update.

Hi “ypbor,” thanks for starting this thread. My 2018 AWD M3 currently displays ~285 miles range @100%. It’s been driven 16,000 miles and I’ve owned it since August 2018. As for charging habits, I routinely charge to 80-95% using a professionally installed Tesla wall connector and generally have it plugged in every night. Like you, I also live in San Diego. With my new job I will be commuting to LAX about three to four times per month and 280 miles range cuts it close. I’m going to try one of the reset techniques (100% to low charge state 3 times) to see if I can nudge the displayed range back above 300 miles. I’ll post the results once I do it.

2019 M3P-, Took delivery in early august.

Lifetime wh/mi: ~280
Charging habits: Charge to 70 in summer, 75-80 in winter. plugged in every night inside a garage, Garage is at 80F in summer, ~50F in winter. Charge to 90% when visiting family and trickle charging on 110V, but it takes awhile.

a few bigger road trips, approx 10-20 supercharges.

Never charged to 100%, only charged to 97% once to try to enable balancing.

Wow I guess I am lucky!

Lifetime wh/mi: 291 wh/mile

At just about 45k in 16 months and still seem to be at just about 290 miles at 100%.

According to TeslaFi, I supercharged 71% of my charging. I daily to 90%, probably 1-2 times a week over 90%, and get under 10% 2-5 times a week, get to 0-5% once a week or so.

That is not lucky! More typical. For AWD that is typical 9% loss of capacity (71kWh out of 78kWh).
 
Steady state. The “drop” if you will between about 10k miles and current correlates with the weather turning cold. The gauge is showing 305-306 miles at full currently; I expect it to go back up to 308ish once the weather warms up.

12,000 miles and all I do is charge it to 90% daily. Set it and forget it.

Which is all to say, all’s quiet on the western front.

How do you do this? My 3 doesn't offer these options. I can charge to 80% or 90%, but not to the intermediate %ages (85, 95).

Not a problem, just curious.

With TeslaFi, you can type in the exact percentage you want. Also, on the app, a recent update now shows the percent number charge when adjusting the rate (assuming you have your car to show percentage).

My car has been really consistent for well over a year at about 307-311, I never saw the mythical 325 change.
But since the beginning of Nov it has dropped like a stone, currently down to 290 (261 @ 90%)
When it initially started dropping I contacted support who said to book it in if it continued to drop.
So I've booked a service next week to check after it dropped another 5 miles, we'll see what they say.

You're only down around 11% or a little more, which is quite normal based on reports here (a bit on the low side but not excessively so). A portion of the loss of capacity could be cold nighttime temperatures; you'd have to really make your battery toasty and charge rapidly to 90% to figure out whether that is a factor.
