    Burned by Tesla on idle fees. Something to know

    A little bit of strategy gives you much more leeway: First, check how long your charge is expected to take for the SoC you actually need/want to continue. This will almost allways be less than 100%. Next, set the charge limit to 100%. Come back at the expected time with lots of time left before...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    Not in a position to be affected by the range loss - S P100D 6/2017, 2019.20.4.2, 87.000km (54.000 m), located in Austria. This year I've had Autopilot nerfed (max rate of turn limited, no longer handles curvy highways, 2019.16.1) Auto lane change nerfed (will only attempt to change lanes for...

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    One relevant source of data to determine actual percentage of affected cars would be teslafi database - given a data set of > 2900 reporting cars it should be possible to get statistically significant information. No idea if James would be willing to assist though.

    Wiki Sudden Loss Of Range With 2019.16.x Software

    There are two separate issues: reduced range, introduced with the 2019.16.x updates. This change seems to affect 60/70/75/85 packs earlier taper of charge rate, introduced with 2019.20.x. This change does not significately reduce the max charge rate. For some US battery packs, max charge rate...

    2019 Supercharging Speed Update Nerfed Overall Charge Times

    The early taper definitely isn't caused by the increased peak rate at low SoC: Europe did not get that increase in peak rate, yet we still see the early taper. Also, I'm quite sure it's not the higher temperatures, both from comparing with last years summer charging sessions and from charges...

    2019 Supercharging Speed Update Nerfed Overall Charge Times

    Yes, I can confirm that. The same update that enabled the higher peak charge rate also causes much earlier taper. For me in Europe it's even worse: we got just the earlier taper without the increase in peak rate. See Latest Sc Results for a graph of some of my charging sessions before and after...

    Latest Sc Results

    Your pictures and the charge rate you get are absolutely amazing. In Europe, 2019.20.x does not show the message about increased charging speed in the release notes, we've got different superchargers with different plugs and never got that increase in charge rate at low SoC. What we both got...

    S100d: Reduced Supercharging Speed With 2019.12.1

    That's definitely the case for Users in Europe, particularly for this years updates: Autopilot limited (max rate of turn reduced) lane change limited, will only attempt lane change for five seconds after touching the turn signal. Supercharger peak rate reduced earlier My car used to handle...

    S100d: Reduced Supercharging Speed With 2019.12.1

    The change I'm seeing is an earlier reduction of peak charge rate that before. From the Release notes it looks like US/Canada got an increase in peak charge rate at pretty much the same time. I'd be really interested to see charge rate diagram(s) before/after to see how peak rate / sustained...

    S100d: Reduced Supercharging Speed With 2019.12.1

    Unfortunately, there's also a whole bunch of different reasons for varying charge rates, The effect I'm trying to verify / confirm is that 2019.20.1 seems to have implemented a new charging strategy where the peak rate is mostly the same as before but peak rate is not sustained as long as...

    S100d: Reduced Supercharging Speed With 2019.12.1

    Since the update to 2019.12.1 I'm seeing significantly reduced SuC charge rates on my 2017 S P100D. Before the update, I'd have > 110kW up to 52% and hit 100kw at about 62%. Sustained peak around 116 kW before it starts going down. After the update, charge rate starts going down at 47% and...

    2019 Firmware Updates for AP 2.0?

    No way to tell in the car; When looking at the sticks contents after sentry mode triggered, there are files written to the TeslaCam folder on the stick, so the car obviously recognized the stick. As a side node, there's another difference the existance of the TeslaCam folder makes on a stick: If...

    2019 Firmware Updates for AP 2.0?

    I just did some experiments on 2019.12.1.1 at home with my S100 MCU1/Ap2.0 connected to my hone WiFi: USB Stick with TeslaCam folder is actually recognized, sentry mode events try to write to the USB but instead of recordings I only get broken files, all about 600 bytes. Also, I didn't see any...

    Software Update 2019.12.x

    Lucky you. Got the update to 12.1.1, coming from 12.1. Only change: battery warmup when navigation to supercharger. No mention of 150kW. That's for S100P, MCU1, AP2,0, Delivered 2017/06, European version (Type 2 connector). Looks like the 150kW feature is not available with the Type-2 power...

    Software Update 2019.12.x

    Doesn't look like it. I did get sentry mode with my AP 2.0 car but don't have the dashcam feature (and saving sentry mode clips to usb also doesn't seem to work).

    I've just given that a try: Model S, AP2.0 Car delivered 6/2017 If there is a FAT32 formated USB Stick with TeslaCam Folder plugged in, Sentry mode tries to use it. The operative word being "tries". As you can see, it creates event-related .mp4 files; they do not however nontain any usable...

    Tesla refusing to show me my own logs?

    One factor you should consider, and should also verify on the road: In my personal experience, phantom braking is linked to TACC and not necessarily to auto pilot. You should try disabling the auto pilot in your car settings; TACC can not be turned off and is automatically activated with...

    Concerns about Tesla API Token process

    The whole thing seems to be based off oauth; client id and client secret are derived from the ios/android apps either by reverse engineering or network intercept (after modifying the app to remove certificate pinning). the values are shared among all users/instances of the app. There may have...

    TeslaFi.com

    There are several open source projects/libraries to make working with the Tesla API easier; which one is best for your use case mostly depends on what computer you want to use it on. I'll just give a single-line sample using PowerShell on a Windows computer that doesn't need anything else...

    Yes, you have to manually recreate the token every 45 days (or earlier if the tesla password is changed; all existing tokens are immediately invalidated by tesla when you change the password). You'll get reminders from teslafi before the token expires. Also, "used for the token request and then...

    Depends on your location; EU Cars don't have that option because regulations. Probably the same for Australia. Summoning only works via App, car only moves while the buttons are pressed.

    Car no longer waking up from the app/API

    We used to have one problem, Tesla tried to implement a workaround, now we've got two problems. Problem one, seems to be only happening in Europe, I'd like to get confirmation on that: "Energy Saving" ON, "Always Connected" OFF. Expected result: Car goes into deep sleep mode; when trying to...

    2016 Model S 90D - Property Damage Claim Post Mortem

    Thanks a lot for your informative write up.I wish I hadn't just acquired a reason to find it interesting: Happened today, I also got rear ended - though not at quite the speed you seem to have been hit; the other car was thrown off the road down an embankment and across a ditch; had to call...

    TeslaFi.com

    No. The problem is more complcated. Normal use of teslafi doesn't change the way it polls (or doesn't poll) the car; it neither wakes the car nor prevents a sleep from occurring. The issue is triggered by a combination of three factors: Teslafi added an api call specifically to wake the car a...

    If you fast charge, Tesla will permanently throttle charging

    One additional idea I'd like to throw in here: From the reported statements by tesla, the conclusion seems to be "fast charging isn't good for the battery". While this may not be true for older cars / battery packs, it would seem to be true for current <100 kWh Battery packs. Could it be that...

    TeslaFi.com

    The validity period for the tokens issued by the API went down from 90 days to 45 days at some point in the past few months - teslafi might have defaulted to the old 90 day period for the email and so missed the actual expiry - there is one (solved) bug regarding display of valid to information...

    Yes, that should be right; -62 kW recuperation is not coasting though, that's braking quite noticeably; I'd say he was definitely going faster that 66 before that.
  38. MartinPF

    TeslaFi.com

    Can you reconfirm that? I would have expected "encrypted password" in this context, not "encrypted token". As far as I know the token is definitely stored on the server at least for teslafi - otherwise it wouldn't be able to actually poll the cars for current data. The password doesn't need to...
  39. MartinPF

    TeslaFi.com

    I can certainly relate :-) Just a small correction though: while you are giving an app access to your location and the ability to change car settings, the token is not enough to unlock the car and drive away. The API call to start the car for keyless driving requires the password in addition to...

    TeslaFi.com

    Sorry,overlooked your question. That field is actually easy to interpret, it's power usage in kW; negative values mean adding power to the car (charging or recuperative braking), positive values are mostly power spent on driving. (idle power use is below 1 kW, so it gets displayed as 0.

    Yes, there is. You can go to the settings page and klick "Download all TeslaFi Data". You can unpack the resulting .csv.gz file using most archive managers (I use 7zip an a windows PC). The .csv file contains the raw data recorded for your car. in the column "power" you'll find the power usage...

    Model S REST API

    You should still be able to generate reasonable info on supercharger activity: charger_power provides current kw during supercharging; charge_rate gives you miles added/hour,charger_voltage is also available.

    Model S REST API

    Well, this sucks: Just checked the API after upgrading to 8.1 and saw that the "battery_current" API field of charge_state has been removed. This was quite useful for tracking vehicle state; I guess that's the risk of using an undocumented and unsupported API.

    Model S REST API

    Just a short note on token expiration / refresh: While i haven't seen it documented yet, the api seems to support token refreshing. The (documented) request for an authentication token returns a standard oAuth token including a refresh_token. Calling the /oauth/token endpoint with parameters {...
