    Supercharger - Kaneohe, HI - Kaneohe Bayview Golf Course

    The charging cabinets are going in next to the transformer, the posts are going in across the driveway behind the parking spots. Also, I’m guessing they are upgrading that transformer or installing a new one because the trench leads to what I believe is the HECO vault (near the street) according...

    Supercharger - Kaneohe, HI - Kaneohe Bayview Golf Course

    Flew the drone today. Progress on digging area for cabinet pads. Seems like slow progress for how much machinery is here. I’m very curious their plan for crossing the driveway. There is no other way in/out of the parking lot. Probably will have to close the parking lot for a day. Then use temp...

    @Mrbrock where have you seen that? The pre-cast that I have seen have all been cabinet & posts mounted to pad from factory.

    I also stopped by today. 3 V3 cabinets waiting to be installed. Likely will be 12 stalls (@Big Earl). No work yet just staging and painting lines for trenching. Lots of photos:

    WTB: M3/MY Steering Column & Rack Connection Pieces

    I'd like to buy the connection pieces between the rack and the column. Happy to take the full rack and column and harvest the parts myself it it is easier, but figured it cheaper to ship the smaller parts. I'm planning to measure them and make new ones for a project I am working on.

    Bolt description abbreviation decoding ZNFL,ZNNI,SMAT,CMAT,HF

    Anyone know what these stand for in Tesla part names of bolts? ZNFL,ZNNI,SMAT,CMAT,HF I am guessing the Z ones are some sort of Zinc coating and HF has something to do with ferrous. Two examples: BOLT,HF,M10-1.5X36,[109],ZNFL,CMAT. 1461652-00-A BOLT,HF,M10X27,STL[109],ZNNI,SMAT 1629334-00-A

    Wind Noise Reduction

    Thank you so much for posting about this! I followed your instructions and it made a huge improvement. The only thing I wish I had done was used a single piece across the entire windshield. I did both door and then figured I’d try it along the top of the windshield where it meets the top. Also...

    Busted PEM? Call Tesla!

    @Strib, you should absolutely retrieve your car from the 3rd party shop. Why/how Fife, I drove it to Seattle back in 2020 and left it with Carl Medlock for some upgrades. I recently got the 3.0 upgrade (had been on the waitlist since 2018). Before bringing it back from Seattle area, it failed...

    @Roadster here is the quote. Not a lot of detail. If I get more, I'll let you know.

    Busted PEM? Call Tesla!

    Not sure, didn’t say. Fife, WA is the service center. Got the quote 21st of June. They are reinstalling the PEM this week 12th of July. So seems like just a few weeks. I don’t think so, but also didn’t ask.

    Busted PEM? Call Tesla!

    My car wouldn’t go into drive recently. I had the car towed to Tesla and they gave me an estimate for $3,200 including parts, labor, and tax! Instead of paying for a complete unit, they are now charging less for remanufacturing your current PEM in house, and it comes with a 2 year warranty. Now...

    *Brand New* Powerwall 2 Founder Series and Gateway 2 and Accessories For Sale

    Trying to answer all the questions: If they were indeed at high SOC, you do indeed have more time. Make sure the On/Off switch stays off. One thing you can do to check, is to attach a 4 wire cable between the gateway and the Powerwall both have a 4 pin connector. Then connect 12V to the two pin...

    *Brand New* Powerwall 2 Founder Series and Gateway 2 and Accessories For Sale

    As a caution to anyone looking to buy a Powerwall that has been sitting since 2020, It may be bricked. Not saying for sure, but there is a possibility. I was one of the people who designed the Powerwall. It’s not meant to sit on a shelf for more than a year. The battery management system draws a...

    Lifted Model Y Owners: Report!

    @MountainPass you mentioned suspension limits the ability to go higher than a 1.75 inch lift. Could we add subframe spacers to solve this? Also, to install bigger tires without hitting the knuckle could we add wheel spacers? I’d love to build the tallest Model Y.

    Roadster 3.0

    yes, which is why it was hard to read Henry’s post about his car still getting over 200 miles of range and why Henry was right to hesitate questioning whether getting the upgrade now was right. I’m sure he would have felt a lot better knowing those modules were going to save another Roadster.

    Folks getting a 3.0 Upgrade in the US, please read! There is no indication that Tesla will take new 3.0 pack orders. Therefore, people stuck with original batteries need your help.

    1.5 Roadster Tire Thread

    yes, AD07 in front and Continental in the back for me. I was hoping to switch to Continental’s in the front, but I’m seeing what you are seeing with them out of stock. If you want to focus on max milage per set and same tread, you could try the Dunlop Direzza DZ102. I’m not sure any of us has...

    1.5 Roadster Tire Thread

    They were the PS4S, great tires, but I only got 10k out of them. That said, I received warranty refund. My per tire cost was $188.99. Refund was $151.19. So I only paid $37.80 per tire which is an amazing deal. This time I’m trying the Continental Extreme Contact, but would happily go back to...
