    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    I bought these and they’re great but I had to go with 20’s in front and I did 25’s rear. The 15’s wouldn’t flush but my wheels rub on tight turns when suspension is set to low.

    OEM CCS adapter now available to order in North America, Retrofit for older cars coming in 2023

    When I try opening your link for adapter it goes to app but no adapter in the app.

    CCS Retrofit Availability (2023)

    I had appointment for my S 100 today but they changed to next week claiming parts aren’t in. I heard they lowered the price to $175 for the adapter but so far my estimate is still at zero.

    CCS Retrofit

    So I had an appointment for today but they changed to next week because part is not in. I have a 2017 and on the estimate it shows no cost but I heard the adapter is now $175. Does anyone know what they do for this? I thought it was just a software update but why would they have to come out for...

    Battery seems to going fast

    That’s what I said.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Really? I read the fast chargers shorten battery life.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Yes I charge to 80% all the time and only drive 40-50 miles. I read yesterday that charging to only 50% is better on the battery so I’m going to try that for a month.

    Battery seems to going fast

    Great info. I’ll give it a try. I notice the Tesla fast chargers seem to lower range pretty quickly.

    Putting some numbers on the factors that affect range

    Wow, I see that this is a very old post but it’s spot on with what I learned. I just bought a used 2017 S 100D and did my first and probably last road trip from Vegas to Lake Tahoe. It was by far the most stressful trip of my life. Always watching the gauge and over charging at each stop. My...

    Battery seems to going fast

    I bought this car used in December. It’s a 2017 S100D. When I first got it if I set charging to 80% it would charge to 251 miles. Now three months later only charges to 245 miles. Is that normal? Seems 2 miles a month is a lot.

    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    Yes my studs were conical

    Wheels spacers for PLAID + 21” Arachnids?

    15’s are too narrow for factory lugs. I put them on mine with 21” Turbines and wheels weren’t flush. Now I have 20’s on front 25’s on rear. Stance is perfect but when I have suspension on low and turning tight to park the fronts rub wheel well.

    Sentry Mode - I can’t be the only one, right?

    I have a 17 and there is no play. I think it’s stupid that I have to take the drive out and play on a computer. It’s $2,200 to upgrade the computer. Rip off!

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    Yes it’s 2022 I’m surprised I just got it and the only thing I see different is I can change the screen to dark.

    Charging loss

    Thanks it’s 2 miles but it’s 24 in a year if this continues. That’s a lot in one year.
