  1. Model Y: Maintenance & Repair
    Took delivery of Model Y long range 12/1/23. Have a question about finding superchargers. If I put a destination into the trip planner, the Tesla will tell me were to charge. No problem. If I do not put a destination into the trip planner, but just "go for a drive" will the car (screen) tell...
  2. The Charging Forum
    We have 2 Tesla's, purchased one year apart, both of which have free supercharging. The first free Supercharging account goes for 2 years and the second expires in 6 months. Both accounts have the same ownership credentials. I did a test charging both cars and both charges were drawn from the 2...

  8. Model 3
    So I have a credit because of a referral when I bought my LR DM M3... but it will expire at the end of July. I was planning a trip up the coast.... but.... I'm an old guy, and in that "high risk" category... So because of the Corona virus, I have only put about 20 miles a month on my M3 over...

    It's time to plan out our Grand Tour of Canada, this time driving our 2020 Tesla Model Y Dual Motor. We'll follow part of the Fast EV Lightning Run at a much slower "tourist" pace, taking in all the sights, including a return trip to Yellowstone (#MiddieGoesToYellowstone) before returning home...
  10. The Charging Forum
    I wasn't able to find this topic covered so I apologize if it is a rehash but I am planning to use a supercharger for the first time on an upcoming road trip and had a question. Has anyone played with reducing the amp. limit while charging to avoid excess heat while charging? Reading about...
  11. Roadster
    Some simple math reveals that the new Roadster should be capable of charging at at least 320kW. Let's take a look: -The Long Range Model 3, with a 75kWh battery, can achieve a peak charging rate of 120kW on a Supercharger -The base model new Roadster has a 200kWh battery -(120kW/75kWh) * 200kWh...

    Elon's recent decision to offer either $ 5K refund at the cost of giving up free supercharging implicitly values the latter at $ 5K. Many people think its being overvalued, which some feel its a good deal. What would you pay for free lifetime supercharging for life?
  13. Model 3: Maintenance & Repair
    I've had my car for nearly a month now and every time I use a supercharger, as long as it's pulling in about 50 kW or higher, the battery pack will make loud banging noises. It sounds like a hammer hitting the car or like flexing a large piece of steel and it popping. It becomes louder and more...

    On Monday we tried some new-to-us superchargers in Peru, IL. The screen in the car reported a cost of $3.60 for our charging session, but when I look online on my tesla account, I was charged $5.56. Is this sort of discrepancy common?
  15. The Charging Forum
    Yesterday we drove our Model 3 over to Peru, IL and used the superchargers there. A few minutes after connecting, we heard (and felt) quite a "thunk." I let the charger go beyond this point, for a total charge time of 12 minutes. Nothing else odd happened. The charging rate was amazing, topping...

    Went to chage my TM3 at our nearest Tesla supercharging station and I was at 26% charged it to 90% which came out to $26.94. it's cheaper than gas but I was surprised at the cost. I previously filled up at work (no supercharger just regular EV charging station) and it cost me a little under $5...

    I'm going out with a group of friends in August to chill out in Halifax and area for a week. We did the trip last year after our wedding using my wife's work van (Grand Caravan), and we're really hoping to not have to do it again. We had originally planned to take our Model 3 Long range. To...

    Just wanted to share some quick thoughts as I finally picked up my model 3 (camped out on 3/31/16 and first time Tesla owner) The experience picking up the car was amazing. Friendly customer service who took their time and went the extra mile. I think not taking delivery at the quarter...
  19. Model 3: Maintenance & Repair
    So I went ahead and made a rough calculator to assist in understanding the overall cost that is associated with the use of a supercharger with a model 3. If there is anything that I could improve on please let me know and I will do my best to adjust for that.
