    Pre conditioning

    I have a 2021 S and my car now pre conditions at 10:30pm. When that happens my off peak(11pm-7am) is delayed by 4hours by my electric company as a penalty for trying to charge before 11pm. Any idea how I can turn off this automatic pre conditioning?

    2022 Model S - Screwed with Summer Tires in New England

    Solve the problem with another set of rims. Swap will be easy and it will stop the wear caused by mounting and re-mounting. Two complete sets is what most swappers have.

    Just a quick update on my OEM Tesla mud flaps. After 2500 miles and 1 month they are working fine with no scrapping. I didn’t shorten the flap and have my suspension set on medium.
