There is another thread about lost regen with 42.2 update.
But a bunch of folks have confirmed by toggling it to low regen for a bit then back to standard restored their regen.
Might be worth a shot.
Tried - no effect. Regen is gone for me at highway speeds
Yep it's been suggested and proved not to help by several folks. It was the first thing I tried when it stopped working - I figured "maybe they accidentally switched it off".
As also noted in this thread, Tesla have engineering folks working on this - it's not a quick fix AFAIK.
Note that my situation seems to be different than the core of this thread (though I wouldn't be surprised if it's all related). I'm driving an AWD with 18" aero w/ stock all season tires. The regen loss occurred after the FW update on Friday to 42.3 and not changing over tires. To make matters worse, I'll be switching to winter tires on Monday morning so it's going to add another variable...
How do you like your Nokean WRG4? I was also very interested in this tire for the winter swap out.Regen not be impacted with snow tires. I just installed Nokian WRG4 on the stock aero rims, and after approx. 350 km, there is no range or regen difference. I'm on software version 40.1.
How about checking the car's settings and make sure the Regen is not knocked out of Standard?
Report it to Tesla via your Tesla account and ask for executive follow up.I want to confirm that I am experiencing this issue with the Winter Tire Package available on the Tesla shop. i.e. the PIRELLI WINTER SOTTOZERO™ SERIE II + 18X8.5J Aero wheels.
I have the RWD version. I also want to note that the latest firmware update with the 'Improved Regen Breaking' made the regen breaking feel worse. The next day, I had my winter tires installed, so its hard to determine whether the update or tires are the source of the issue. Otherise, my issue is as stated, almost no regen breaking above 30+ km/h.
From the other board:
“I'm confident that Tesla will, in time, offer a solution that allows the use of "squirmy" winter tires for those who think they need the extra bit of traction they provide on most snowy surfaces. Having said that, I hope whatever solution Tesla comes up with doesn't handicap the winter performance for the rest of us by detuning the electronic traction aids. Let me explain....
I already have.Report it to Tesla via your Tesla account and ask for executive follow up.
I hate to say good cause it isn’t. I’m just glad the ‘non recommended’ tire stuff Tesla has been sending to some of us in response to our tickets should end.I want to confirm that I am experiencing this issue with the Winter Tire Package available on the Tesla shop. i.e. the PIRELLI WINTER SOTTOZERO™ SERIE II + 18X8.5J Aero wheels.

Thanks for sharing that but I have to admit it doesn't feel like it aligns with what I'm experiencing, or I just don't get how this works, which is entirely possible. I'm not having "traction" issues in "snow", I'm having lack of regen (stopping issues) in a variety of temperatures (between -5C and +15C) ever since changing tires. Symptoms for me are as follows:
BEFORE: Say I'm going 50km/h and I let off the accelerator completely, I'd get a fairly aggressive "engine braking" reaction from the car, usually enough to bring me cleanly to a stop as required, usually having to actually accelerate a bit so it's not too sudden.
AFTER WINTER TIRES FITTED: In that same situation, letting my foot off the accelerator I'll only very gradually lose a little bit of speed and see a small amount of green re-gen but essentially the car keeps on going. The same situations where I could stop without touching the brakes would have me go sailing on through. Re-gen is now nowhere near enough to stop me - I always have to brake, sometimes quite aggressively if conditions change. It's a night and day difference.
See how I'm having trouble thinking of this as a "traction" issue? Like I say, maybe I'm just not understanding how traction = regen. I think of regen more like engine braking. Have I got it wrong?

Judging by the verbiage some people use to describe this issue, it's apparent they think the "issue" is some kind of defect or fault with the car.
...
My 2 cents: I’d like my regen back. I can turn it to low when it snows. Most of the winter the asphalt is dry and clear.
And to further his narrative he dismisses that the perellis can have the issue too.I had some back and forth with that guy on the other board. He seems to think that we should only use the Pirelli winter tire that Tesla sells. And he keeps saying there is no issue with the car. Not sure why, but he doesn’t get that some of us need a more serious winter tire than the Pirelli and the car should be able to deal with any reasonable tire that’s installed.

More to the point -- if they're going to say you can only use Pirelli's... well... perhaps it would have been a good idea for them to communicate that somewhere prior to Canadian winter. I'm just sayin...
Even more to the point: if they’re going to say use pirellis they should work. Two users here have them and they don’t.
