Okay just have to say I though NoA was going to be a gimmick, but it is pretty impressive. Very different experience from plain AP. We drove home within the city taking 3 challenging transitions from hwy to hwy and it did it all without intervention (except lane change confirmation which were...

Thanks, I fully intend for this to be my daughter first car in 15 or so years. Should be interesting, hopefully by then Tesla Model 0 will be out and it will be under $35k for a 1500km range. Note: Just got the FSD features updated to the car this afternoon (bought Thursday night after the...

True true. This purchase though just made this car an over $80k purchase if you include the charging infrastructure, winter tire package, etc... not a small chunk of change (I cringe every time I think it could have been a down payment for my daughter’s first place, or pay for her uni + living...

Odd. I would have thought the pin would not be engaged as “left over” code from the cold weather firmware changes (maybe it disengages after charging is complete to prevent frezing, but needs to stay unlockablecwhile charging for some reason to enable this?). Unfortunately I don’t see many...

Bought AP as soon it was available for discount, then folded on Thursday night on FSD. Bye bye $4k + tax. Still no FSD features updated to the car yet :(. Crossing fingers for HW3 + plan on keeping the car for a long long time (10+ years).

Thanks, keep us posted if you do get anything from them! It's not terribly urgent for us, but we'd like to update work with our insurer to update our coverage.

Aside, does anyone that bought the new discounted AP or AP+FSD (not EAP) have this show up in their Vehicle Details? I have neither, would be nice if we ever needed Proof of Purchase or to ensure we’re taged for HW3 if it ever rolls out.

I had the same issue, and was using a 4GB stick. Realized it needs now 5.6GB for the full hour of recording (3 cameras), so bought a 32GB stick (cheap one). No issues since.

A little bummed too, but in the end for the price, I guess I can't complain, also we don't do much lane changing believe it or not (slow & steady gets us there alive), and this may help one focus on the road a bit more than trusting Tesla blindspot detection.

Got mine too, no FSD version. No "Auto Lane Change" as far as I can tell... :(.. ah well. Still worth it!

They say that they are in talks to put Flo (national CF partner) as a replacement... we’ll see how quickly and pricing....hopefully many stalls and free but one can only dream :rolleyes: .

Snowflake. Dots/limited regen seem to be a little easier to decrease with driving.

Will post results as well when we do a winter trip. I’ve also seen with mine that the only way to unfreeze the battery is to charge indoors. No amount of driving seems to help.

Okay so, if your priority is saving money, the best thing you could probably do is just keep your current car. Say instead of buying a Toyota or anything else, you put the money into a high interest savings account (one of the worst returns, but gets you 3%). You would be making $900/year and...

It’s about $1 higher than the average last year ($2.10/GJ) at the regulated rate, but we use much less NG than electricity. Given the lower admin fees as well, I’ve modelled @700kWh/month to produce about $250+ in savings per year even with the gas price increase, assuming “market” electricity...

Fully agree with the battery capacity, note that you will lose a bit as the car sits out in cold weather without being charged unlike an ICE so expect a some vampire drain + part of the battery locked out to protect itself. That said with Winters this is the best handing car I’ve owned and...

Yes my package is from Tesla, check out the Tires in the Model 3 section https://epc.teslamotors.com/#/catalogs

94V Edit: I see now in the parts catalogue that they have 98V as well as 94V for the R18. A while ago when I got mine they only had N0 94V up. They must have sourced and additional type in the last month.

Yes, I used to live near the “centre of the universe”, but have for the last 10 years been in Alberta :p . Woke up this morning hand checked the temp before leaving -12 :( Luckily Calgary is forecast to see a high of +5 this weekend!

Just to provide a balanced perspective for those making future purchasing decisions (example RWD vs AWD) purely off of this thread, I want to reiterate that there are RWD cars that are doing fine with winter tires on. We’ve been experiencing up to -12C with light snow/ice and still have...

And those are also what you will not get (pictured). You will get the standard Aero wheel covers that come standard with the 18inch wheels (which, I love :)). Saved the new set and they just put on the old ones.

OP here, based in Calgary & winters are on. A little early, but still hoping the warm weather holds up!

Yes the Sottozero Series II 240s.

No issue for me, regen at all speeds except cold or full: -18 aero winter package - rwd - 39.7

Congrats to all the new Model 3 owners, I feel like we're starting to reach the tipping point here in Calgary. Starting to spot a lot of them now, my record is 3 in one day (1 red, 1 blue, 1 white)!

Tires typically have nothing to do with the Regen limitation. The limitation only comes into play due to current pack charge level or temperature. I can confirm that there is no difference in regen limitation between winter or summer tires. Some notes so far (no snow, just dry warm (17C) /...

Ours are in and installation appointment is scheduled for this week! Wonder if these will be the 240s as I read the 270s have the dual rubber compound layers. Also, if Tesla has done anything specific like the strengthening in the OEM summers.

Let me put you mind at ease slightly. Winter came early here in Calgary and last week we had lots of snow, currently black ice. My experience with the RWD in ice/snow with stock aero tires: Much more stable than expected. Far less of the rear sliding around than with lighter rwd cars (feels...

Whaaat? That is incredible... sounds like it’s worth a call to the SC for a follow up. Although, if it’s still warm then waiting may not be a bad strategy.

The package price includes building the wheel & tire as well as swap/installation. A decent deal in my opinion for the 240 sottozeros + a second set of aeros + tpms + labour. Especially if you consider the US package is priced about $200 CAD higher. Will run down these tires the consider a...

Yeah, immediately charging your card before the product ships is not the best customer experience, but I guess cash flow is king. SC says they’re just waiting on tires (they can pull up tire orders apparently in the system). Fingers crossed!

Hi Folks, Just wondering if anyone has actually order & received their packages from a service centre recently? Is it usually radio silence if there's an issue? I ordered online a month ago and no news yet... read online that they can be on backorder for months which is making me very very...

Sorry for the delay, ended up getting it swapped a week ago for a new revision (paperless service so no replacement number). They also mentioned a software update (assuming 32+), but let’s see if it holds. Thanks everyone for the info!

So an update on this issue. I had the original driver’s side signature light completely dead, but the replaced with one that was “dimmer”. They replaced it with a third one that also was showing “dimmer”, so decided to escalate to engineering. After doing more tests they found that the signal...

As far as I’m aware there’s nothing that looks like it’s even being contrstructed there. But haven’t checked out all the parkades. Destination charging still working fine though.

Sorry for the long post... I'm a huge believer in financial fitness. Too many times I see people getting trapped in the hedonistic treadmill to keep up with what society deems as success. Sharing a bit of my purchase thought-process if it helps: Originally family of 2, with a wife that wanted...

Yes, would not go back to ICE and even looking at “luxury” cars nothing for the $ comes close (why buy a Motorola RAZR when you can get an iPhone 3GS for the same money?). However, like any purchase, only buy what you can afford. If you weren’t looking at a well equipped 3 series or equivalent...

Actually, "walking by" the driver-side might have helped (I'm usually putting our little one in the car seat so go to the opposite rear door first often)! But it could be a placebo or even the 24.1 update :). A few ownership updates: - Didn't know that the card would work through my wallet...

It’s interesting that the carbon tax is being used to fund the regulated rate cap (6.8c/kWh) on electricity. I wonder if people realize that this basically subsidizes EV drivers :D. Maybe they should be more overt about this to show they are funding the EV shift. Also we don't pay the $0.13/l...

I think it's a testament to the "normalcy" that Teslas are approaching. Build quality has been fairly good, no major issues. Range is more than we'll probably ever need (at least its summer now so less of an issue). Some occasional quirks I've run into but nothing that couldn't be solved by...

They had a bunch in the service centre as well when I took delivery!

Initial thoughts: First day of deliveries... feel so guilty that we somehow got lucky VIP like delivery experience, flawless, friendly, personal! (~50 min because we have a little one) Mention that there are probably about ~50 for Calgary (or AB?) first production so you will see lots more...

Res: Feb 2017 Invite: April 25, 2018 Order: April 25, 2018 VIN (shopping cart): May ~17, 2018

Delivery was quite a surprise to get such a close date, I wonder though about the 4 cars already there so that must mean some folks may have already taken or will soon take delivery in the next couple days.

June 1st (barring transportation delays)!

So close! Arggg. Thanks for scouting. I was thinking that late June delivery should give the SC time to do a nice and thorough QC check. This is what’s keeping me sane now:) .

No word yet, but only a few more weeks left (hopefully). I have to remember next time to ask my DS how many they expect to deliver here. I assume that there will only be a handful given no EV rebates and AWD deferrals... anyone care to guess?

Sorry for cross posting from the VIN Assignment thread, but if you use the “shopping cart” method you may already have a VIN. It could change but it’s something (delivery will still hopefully be late June before they end financial Q1 as I haven’t heard otherwise from my DS and don’t want to get...

Alberta VIN assigned (or at least it shows up using the “shopping cart” method): 295XX

Contacted by DS to prepare for delivery in late June while the email officially states June-July. One silly thing was that I hadn't filled out my contact info in on My Tesla Account until yesterday, so this may have triggered something. Anyone else contacted? Timeframe similar? No VIN yet...
