Well, ran into my first *major* annoyance with my P85D this morning. Hopefully it's a minor issue and will correct itself.
Issue: Car wouldn't pre-heat this morning, and on my ride to the office it never warmed up at all either. Normally I use the app to turn on Climate control and let the car warm up to 20C/70F before I leave the house and jump in (yes, I park it outside!). Normally heater works very fast - usually takes ~10 to 15 minutes to go from -5C up to 20C. This morning I did the same as always - the app showed that Climate was on and set to High, but the car never warmed up. Then I drove to the office and the car continued to stay cold. The vents were blowing air... it just never warmed up at all.
The big difference from this morning and other days was the big snowfall we got last night. Is there something here that would disrupt heat from working? I cleaned off the snow before I turned on Climate to pre-heat.
Any advice/tips from Tesla winter drivers appreciated! Thinking I'll just take it through a car wash later and hopefully that will clear out anything that may have gotten blocked up.
