    Chicago area superchargers failing in cold

    Something to keep in mind too is the fact that the other night their were many more broken chargers in reality at the chargers I was stopping at then the app was listing. Also rolling meadows said 5 available stalls when in reality there was a 1-2 hour wait. Eventually, after I was there 2...

    Chicago area superchargers failing in cold

    In Rolling meadows the other night someone claimed they poured hot water in one and got it working. I watched them pour hot water in 3 connectors but it did not fix them. I was hopeful.

    Chicago area superchargers failing in cold

    In Rolling meadows last night the guy on the tow truck waiting in line died on the road or at his house. Not sure how. He asked me if it ever happened to me and I said no and was kinda surprised he would think it could be common enough to ask. Besides him, most other people there were in very...

    Chicago area superchargers failing in cold

    I actually have a CCS adapter. I have never used it though because every time I check the map where Im taveling there are super chargers in the same town as well. It did cross my mind while I was waiting in line last night but I ended up thinking I have less then 20% and dropping faster then...

    Chicago area superchargers failing in cold

    I was here last night, next in line behind the first guy they interviewed. I was coming from Normal Illinois to Antioch. No issues prior to the Chicago suburbs. Charged at many rural Chargers all over Illinois earlier in the day with no issues. I arrived in Bollingbrook with 30% or so to find...

    They are averaging awarding less than 75 per month. Maybe they will step it up.

    Illinois rebate program

    This is kind of odd. Latest numbers from yesterday. Started paying non-low income well before all the low-income applications. Only thing I can figure is they had problems with most of the low-income applications. Either way can they pay these any slower? lol

    Illinois rebate program

    I found some on Reddit that have gotten their rebates last week that were not low income. It appears the state is still sending the rebates but no longer updating the website. The person that got there rebate that was not low income got their car first week of July. This is going to be awhile it...

    Yes, I was thinking that with a month between round one ending and round two beginning they would close out the books on round one in the down month, So they know what they have for round two. Being October 8th already and no real changes in the amount of payments they are making I'm beginning...

    Wonder what year we will get this Rebate. Very Strange how slow they are delivering them. Maybe they drive one of those Giant Novelty Checks to your house.

    Any Idea if your friends application was low income. I only ask because since they were processing them first I thought it might be possible his was just being processed sooner and was then caught that it was incomplete.

    Rearview mirror housing rattle/vibrations

    Have same problem in My 2022 MYP. Took delivery August 20th, 2022. From day 1 on certain bumpy roads, not all, it would vibrate loudly like a humming. It would also do it when certain frequencies of bass are coming form cars around me, either from their radios or mufflers. It sounds like it is...

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    Sorry for the rabbit hole. Last comment on regen braking. It occurs to me that Tesla could be saying don't accelerate and decelerate repeatedly and try to maintain a slower speed where repeated quick deceleration is not needed.

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    I was speaking theoretically, not counting comfort. Just trying to figure why they are saying don't stop quickly for best efficiency. I mean if you have to stop it seems the rate of decent is not a big factor and probably has no impact on your efficiency. Unless I'm missing something

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    So if you are approaching a stop sign, it's better to stop gradually as apposed to waiting until the last second and stopping quickly, using regenerative braking in both instances?

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    I have heard many times recently from Tesla that to be the most efficient don't accelerate quickly (obviously) or decelerate quickly. I dont understand the decelerate part of the advice. I always feel like decelerating quickly uses the most regen and would be a good thing. Any insight?

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    Not to be redundant, but I really think Tesla should not call turning on climate Preconditioning. Doing so implies if you are leaving your house in the winter to supercharge you can simply turn your climate on 45 minutes before you leave your house. It also implies if it’s 80 degrees outside...

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    I kind of feel like Tesla should have different names for the different processes. Turning on climate should not be called preconditioning, if preconditioning the battery is something completely different

    Preconditioning Vs. Climate on: Whats the difference?

    I understand the purpose and benefits of preconditioning; warming the car, better range, faster charging..... What I would like like a little deeper dive on is this. There are many ways to precondition the car. Scheduled departure, Navigation, turning climate on. Tesla states to turn the...

    I think everyone still gets the adapter. It did include the 110 standard plug I don’t recall the number. I didn’t think about the august date it that way. I was thinking everyone that ordered before the April date will get it free no matter when they pick up but everyone that ordered after will...

    How Long after changing from Cash to Credit Union does it take MVPA to change?

    Mine didn’t change by asking Tesla, I tried 3 times. I told my credit union I got Vin. They said they would take care of it. Ten minutes later they had my correct MVPA and it was changed in app
