Up until 12.3.6, it was turning correctly. This morning after update, it turned left on green, missed the lane and turned into shoulder about to hit the barrier. I sure looked like a drunk driver at 8am. Glad it’s going to be over tomorrow.

That slow acceleration and late braking behavior makes it pretty unusable in stop and go traffic, for me. When I got my MY, I enjoyed the ability to find a gap in traffic, quickly accelerate and get into the gap if I needed to, because I was quicker than most cars. That ability slowly...

It’s true that the “charger” that we plug in to the car is really just a glorified connector. The real charger is in the car. So it’s possible that the Mach-e tolerates irregular waveforms better than Tesla.

Does the inverter have an 120v option that you can try? Also, when you put scope on the transformer, can you observe both outputs to see the phase relationship and make sure you truly have a 120-N-120?

This is funny because people in US call an engine a motor. This is the first time I heard it the other way around :)

Only the paranoid survives :) Kidding aside, I have the same concern and I stay away from android devices in general.

Taking trunk panels off in not a big deal, I did it several times on multiple MYs. You just have to keep an eye on those small white clips on side panels as they tend to fall off and hide in the most difficult nook possible. But I never had rattles after putting them back.

Changing mpge is not the same as defeating emissions control on an ICE. The electricity may come from a renewable source, so consuming more electricity does not guarantee increased emissions somewhere. More importantly, Tesla does that exact same thing when you pay them $2k : unlock the...

I can’t find that thread right now but I bought this device from Amazon: QUICKLYNKS Auto Battery Monitor BM2 Bluetooth 4.0 12V Device Car Battery Tester This shows a history graph of battery voltage and if you see frequently going up to 14v when the car is supposed to sleep, it indicates that...

We need more info and picture. A 25 mile rear ending can’t possibly have no damage. Are you saying just bumpers or panels were damaged but no frame damage? Maybe some sensor was damaged and the car is intermittently applying stability control? Hard to tell…

Do you have lead acid 12v battery? In another thread about 12v battery, it was mentioned that when the 12v can’t hold charge, the car will wake up to charge it. Just another possibility.

Same here. That software update notice is gone from car and from the app. Also the junk ads about Tesla electric and referral programs are also gone from the app.

Those sounds are normal. I get those in the initial phase of supercharging when the charging current is the highest, most likely the battery expanding due to rapid charging. Can it damage the battery? Maybe over long term but that’s what the 8 year warranty is for.

They might try that but it will probably invite a class action. I am honestly surprised that didn’t get sued for the AP suspension already. I bought the car that included AP functionality, they can’t suspend me from using that functionality based on their new requirements.

If someone has done it, I’d like to know as well. Currently the app only allows all days and weekdays, not a hybrid work schedule.
