    Is it better for my car to spend more time at 50% or have shallower discharge cycles but spend more time at a higher state of charge.

    Flooring the pedal mess up your battery way more than SOC levels. Some of us got the "85pack degrading charging" two years before every 85 pack got this.

    Plaid Drag Racing - Not such a great night

    This curve is after tesla removed power from the bottom. and raised the power to keep the same 0-60. The plaid could easily be a faster car. Just try a P85D P90D. It's quicker from 0-20. I remember how sad it was going from P85D to P100D. P100D had same slow starts and same slow throttle...

    Plaid Drag Racing - Not such a great night

    Plaid is traction limited? Why does the plaid have such a slow start compared to P85D P90D etc? Look up the power curve from the launch event.. And often people get the rear to spinn because the front don't follow etc. Worst AWD ever.

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Old model 3 without stalks would not be as bad as the refresh. The crazy amount of steering you have to do just make this unbelievable stupid

    Tesla Model 3 2021 HDMI Interface options?

    The Bluetooth delay is just perfectly delayed with the hdmi autopilot mcu delay. I can try to film a "action" / sync a day.

    Tesla Model 3 2021 HDMI Interface options?

    I don't have any delay. (I know Bluetooth have a delay. But so dose the hdmi adapter - autopilot - mcu - screen. Old autopilot 1 cars may have this problem because the camera have less delay on the screen? IL see if I find a video.

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Nice :) I hope they have made enough kits for everyone who wants. But not enough to get "stuck with thousands". When tesla brings stalks back (or they make the car steer much faster.. Like cybertruck).

    Model 3 Highland Performance/Plaid Speculation [Car announced 04.23.2024]

    Remember guys. Watching those YouTube reviews videos. This is how much you need to turn the steering wheel. Bye bye fast steering :) model Y is the "sporty" car from now :)

    Blinker stalk not consistent

    Tesla removing "3 blink " is really annoying. But as said. Tesla is done making good cars and software. Sometimes they add some useful things(Bluetooth menu. Wifi menu) . But most of the time, they remove good stuff. Throttle response. Low speed torque etc etc. Some X tesla employees called...

    Blinker stalk not consistent

    The turn signals won't work if it's lots of traffic on the LIN network. Just hit the indicator fast. Sometimes you can hit it 3-4 times fast! Without anything happening . "People" said tesla recently changed something in the LIN from 10ms to 5ms recently. This have been a problem for Tesla...

    Tesla Model 3 2021 HDMI Interface options?

    Why FM module? The car have Bluetooth :p The hdmi input works fine on new cars. But you don't (not currently) have the option to swap between rear camera and the hdmi input. It's a easy fix for people who know how to make it. But most people don't care. I love the hdmi input. We have 360...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Damn! Only on refresh 3 the indicator stalks have 3 blink. Was filming and it did not stop after a roundabout (sometimes it's shuts of automatic. Probably lucky the other times) . Hopefully s3xy buttons will update for enabling this later

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    Im doing a write up now. Sadly I didn't take more pictures while doing this. But it's easy. Finishing tonight. The "new" stalks actually works better? I only use one function on each button. That makes the response time better. now I got "3" blink indication etc. So roundabouts isn't a problem...

    Thinking of selling my plaid and going back to 2020 P100d

    About the shocks. I forgot how bad the pre raven shocks is on model S. I was thinking about the X. Yes. My P100DL probably was the worst handling car I ever had. Our X was way better. I bought the unplugged performance shocks for the car. Not great. But at least stiffer. To the motors. Pre...

    Work in progress: stalks on 2021 Model S. (and optional round-y wheel)

    I just soldered wires from the S3xy buttons directly to the Tesla controller board. (Indicator side). On the gear selector side. I used two microswitches. I can take better pictures today. It's a fast and easy job.

    The adaptiv suspension in the X is actually worse then the older cars without. It's hard to explain what's make it so bad. You should put the wipers on full blast. Just feel how the car rocks from side to side 😂 I think refresh triple motor cars have S suspension parts in the rear. It's so...

    Thinking of selling my plaid and going back to 2020 P100d

    Why raven? Pre raven had better shocks. Better AWD (no permanent magnet motor). The steering is much faster on older cars. Plaid is like a semi. (need to turn my yoke 180° instead of 90° just to get out of my garage (when I get in... The plaid get stuck in gravel 😂). Older X have better...

    Please! Talk me out of MX Plaid !!!

    Facetime me. And I can show you the difference between the plaid and 2019x (and 2016). The plaid is terrible. They put model 3 interior and hw into a X. Yes, faster entertainment system. But that's it.. Everything else sucks... (The matrix lights actually works great). They have saved a ton...

    S3xY stalks

    150$ for stalks and a couple of s3xy buttons. Works fine. No light in the stalks. But it's a huge upgrade. Car is much faster to operate. Need to upgrade to faster steering, then the car is usable. Can't believe they made refresh Cars owners, turn the steering wheel almost twise as much as...

    Rear AC always starts in Auto mode

    It would be OK if if they had a separate system. Like older cars.. But they made the refresh cars so terrible.. The noise it makes just to give the people in the rear some heating / cooling. And it's terrible for people on 3. Row. We have 2023 plaid. But the 75kW 6 seat is the best on road...

    2019 raven / intel atom / option for tesla infotainment upgrade

    You can't get anything. Tesla won't give you anything else expect some safety updates etc later. Buy a HDMI input kit and a 360 parking kit. That's a nice upgrade.

    Why don't I see Blind Side Assist available on 2017 MX?

    Tesla says it's hard to do because of some wiring.. (Can bus channels). But it's working fine in "service" mode.. Tesla is just lazy. Using money on the newer cars

    New X Plaid Poor Performance

    Yes. Tesla have removed lots of power. When the battery is cold. And soc is low. And that's not all... If you heat up your battery with the dragracing button. It's just 31-37-39°C depending on soc. This is why model Y long range and performance can beat you from 5-40mph some times. Do you want...

    Why we can't sell the old 2019 X after we got a Plaid

    Is the 2023 Model X suspension just not refined?

    I can't explain why the suspension sucks. But I agree with you. I always switching between soft and sport. But what I find annoying is the top mount. It's so soft so you get suspension rattling in many situations..

    Why we can't sell the old 2019 X after we got a Plaid

    Because we live in Europe. We have snow. And Nokian Hakka can't help the plaid. We have removed a lot of gravel now. That's why the plaid didn't get stuck. As it used to do. Forget towing with a plaid on loose tarmac etc. It's just digging. (beating the snail). This is 1 out of Xx things that...

    Why you need a cybertruck and a riv or Ford lighting

    The awd isn't what we had in 2014 - 2019. ( a lot of gravel is removed, had to remove it or the plaid got stuck. Laying on its battery as a dead turte). 2019 X with dual motor vs plaid

    Falcon Wing Door Concerns

    Our old model X don't have any door problems. 130.000km and those doors goes up and down 15-20 times every day. Often more. Our new model x is a different monster. Big gaps. So bad the sealing looks older on the new car compared to the old. The automatic front door sucks. They switched to the...
