    Non random battery drain

    Sure but not all Tesla owners see this issue, if it were just a matter voltage vs temperature, everyone would notice this type of phantom drain. Besides fuel gauging is much more complex with specific fuel gauge chips that use coulomb counting as one method of gathering data for estimating...

    Non random battery drain

    So I bumped my SOC from 80% to 85% so when I get to work, I have 73%, doing so has basically eliminated the 5%-6% drain I was seeing when my SOC was at 68% upon arriving at work. I'm going to keep this up for a while and see if it continues to resolve the issue.

    Non random battery drain

    I might give that a try. Similarly if I bumped the SOC up to 90% and I get to work with 78%, that should work as well.

    Non random battery drain

    I continue to have the same issue, however, as it's gotten hotter over 90F lately, it seems the 5% loss over 9 hours has dropped to around 2% loss. Not sure if it's temperature related or not though.

    Noise while driving on the freeway, 65-80 mph?

    Tesla sends a cost estimate for every service request since they don't know if your request is covered under warranty or not until they see the car.

    Non random battery drain

    No, still have not figured it out, the drain is random, some days 5%-6% other days 2%-3% or occasionally less than 1%. It could be ambient temperature dependent, it seems like the days were I get less drain are cooler days, however we are now getting into the high 80's and the drain is as...

    Non random battery drain

    Another update, two days in a row I had 0% energy loss while parked at work for 9 hours. What changed? I changed my navigation destination to an address that I pass by before turning into my work address. This seems to end navigation and when I park the car, it goes to sleep and doesn't lose the...

    Non random battery drain

    For me this is not a BMS issue and I'm in FL, it's not a cold weather issue, I do not get the 5% back later in the charge/discharge cycle, and depending on what I do when I arrive at work, the drain will change. For example, earlier this week, I parked the car when I got to work, then after 2...

    Non random battery drain

    I've been experiencing a similar issue for the past several months. No drain at all when I'm parked at home, even over a 24 hour period. Each day when I go to work, I will see a 5%-6% "stand by" drain when parked in the parking lot. However, over the past 2 months, I have had at least two...

    Windshield replacement

    I had the same experience with Safelite charging for "calibration" which I will give them some credit, they do hook up a laptop to the car but it's totally unnecessary but they refuse to let the car leave without calibration. They charge over $350 for the "calibration" and has been a point of...

    BEST memory for sentry mode on 2024 Telsa Model 3 Highland

    I've had a Samsung Extreme Portable SSD for over 4 years now, it's not given me any troubles.

    Mystery noise SC ‘couldn’t hear’…

    Not much to go on, any idea if the noise is coming from your speakers? Inside the car? Outside the car? Wind noise? Have you tried driving with a passenger and asking them if they hear anything, windows up, windows down?

    When to look in to lemon law

    Discount tire doesn't do alignments, so they would not have checked anything. I'd suggest taking it to a shop that specializes in alignments. For the B-pillar rattle, it's the seatbelt adjuster, just look up on Youtube, you will find videos of how to add a bit of felt tape to fix it, it's very...

    Hertz rental PIREP (pilot report!)

    That range estimate is related to the Wh/mi that the car has seen, it's not a good indication of capacity loss. I imagine a rental car is not driven nicely so the Wh/mi is probably really poor in comparison.
