    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    I have actually run out of power. I normally always use rated range, and for some reason I had it set to "ideal" which was a total mistake. 20km from my cottage, and after I hit zero, I traveled about 15km, 5km short. Your first notice on the screen is to stop and charge, the next warning is the...

    Eastern Canada Superchargers

    I was there at 7pm last night Sunday and had about 100Km. Plugged in and ran at 500plus no problem. Was at station 1A if that is any help.

    Had my car in at Service in Toronto and they mentioned that the Barrie location would be on-line in 2 months!

    Canadian Superchargers

    Just was at the Service Center at Lawrence Ave and construction is in HIGH GEAR installing 4 Supercharger stalls for charging 8 cars. Service guys said it should be up and running in a couple weeks.

    Canadian Superchargers

    SuperCharging is included with the 85, and optional on the 60. Dual Chargers are not required for Supercharging as the Charger is external. They actually show this on the build my model S. The fact that they do charge $2100 as an option on the 60 does leave me to thing there is something extra...

    Firmware 5.8

    I would love to get my hands on a list of fixes that 4.5-5.8 gives us. Just noticed today that when I plug in my HPWC @ 80amps I don't get the 60amp warning anymore. Wonder what other little fixes I will find!

    Normal Model S Sounds

    Had mine in for service to find the cause of the clunking. Solution is a new drive unit on order.

    Firmware 5.8

    Fixed in 5.8 Now when you do a delayed charge after the car is locked, the dash and charge port wont light up light a christmas tree. Thank you Tesla!

    Any Canadians with 5.6?

    Christmas comes early for me too. Skipped over 5.6 and got 5.8 today. Time to go out to the garage!

    Toronto/GTA, Honestly, How Has Your Service Been?

    I have had my car for 4 months, been to Toronto Service twice for all minor stuff. Service is amazing and have taken advantage of their loaner program once. I would buy this car over and over again. Fact is, I really kind of miss the whole process of ordering and delivery that you will soon...

    Normal Model S Sounds

    I have now got a clunking sound and lows speeds when I gently add power and come off power in stop and go traffic. Sounds like a bad u-joint type sound coming from the rear end. Service wants to look at it and claim they have heard of this prior to me reporting it. Once I get an answer I will...

    Display panel comes on by itself after charging is complete

    YES, I have seen this happen. If I lock the car, all lights and screens go out. However, once my "delayed" charging starts at the predetermined time I set it to charge, the small dash screen lights up and stays on. Only when you remotely unlock and re-lock will the small screen then turn off...

    Toronto SC Grand Opening

    I just booked today for the 18th, so I assume I still go out to Missisauga, although I am thrilled to use the Lawrence location. I thought I had heard somewhere, that they would be occupying the old Aklands location....17,000 Square feet so this will be a very nice facility I'm sure.

    Upgrade to 200A - Charging Solution in the Home

    My home has a 200amp panel, but was fairly full with enough room for just the Nema 14-50 so I elected to go with that which was $800.00 to install. I then had my HPWC installed at my office where I have better access to power. Having the 14-50 at home is plenty as it will charge at roughly...

    Where are Touchless Car Washes in Toronto?

    I had this exact same problem on a white Lincoln SUV, dealer and body shop guys looked at it and said it was from the Brakes. Suggested they Claybar also and it worked, seems to rub off with a little elbow grease. Hope that helps. - - - Updated - - - Best Car Wash deal out there is the Petro...

    OnRoute Charging Stations?

    Agreed, and the only solution that WILL work is charging well north of 80amps in those locations.

    OnRoute Charging Stations?

    Just got back from a Kingston run of about 300Km's each way. Arrived in Kingston with 80km's left and drove by the Charging station at St. Lawrence College, 2 30amp chargers there, but these will take forever. Then went to the Best Western on Princess at they have a single Sun Country CS-90 and...

    Model S Software/Firmware wishlist

    I would like the following, 1. If charge port is left open, car can't go into drive. 2. Be able to adjust the sensitivity of the day/night on screen. I find it switches over too early in the morning. 3. Be able to adjust the sensitivity of the headlights switching off, I also find the turn off...

    Tim Hortons Charging Infrastructure/An Introduction

    Hi Daniel, This is fantastic NEWS. I just picked up my car on Saturday so I am very excited to meet all of you hopefully at the Next meeting. We have a cottage in Fenelon Falls and I have asked the local Chamber of Commerce to speak with the SUNCOUNTRY folks as well. Now I can say that your...

    High Power Home Charging Package worth it?

    New tires for 19" wheels?

    Did the Rim guy go on vacation, those new 19" Aero wheels are hurting my eyes...or is it just me.

    High Power Home Charging Package worth it?

    There are 2 Chargers on board the car, so when you use a HPWC set at 80amps, 40amps each goes into the car thus charging at 2X.

    High Power Home Charging Package worth it?

    Your panel is 100amps, thats for the entire house. The HPWC can draw 40-100amps which would overload your panel. Have an electrician in to do a load test, and that will determine if you even have enough room for a 14-50 at 50amps. Hope that helps.

    Interesting new options on Tesla dashboard: Parking Sensors and Lighting Package

    In my particular case, my car left production a week ago and my appointment to pick it up is next week. So, I am very excited to finally own one of these fine automobiles. I ordered a P85+ with all the bells and whistles and now I see that PDC is an option. Would I have ordered this too, sure...

    High Power Home Charging Package worth it?

    Is the HPWC worth it? The answer for me was yes and no. I bought the HPWC/Twin charger package and had 2 possible locations for install. At home or at work. It made perfect sense for me to install the 14-50 at home because this is where the car would be for an extended period of time. It was...

    Design Studio Updates!

    I would hope one day someone would fix the Design Studio when selecting 21" SILVER Wheels and then choosing the P85+ package. This defaults to the 21" GREY Wheels and you actually have to go back again and re-select "Silver". This almost got by me when I ordered, and at the last second at the...

    OnRoute Charging Stations?

    I vote they put one at Webber's, that would cover the North and give me an excuse to have another Hamburger!
