Sorry folks I dropped off this thread for a little while. I appreciate the positive comments from people that actually read the issues. I am currently working on building a very solid case here. Using a 2nd Model 3 (2 weeks apart production same LR RWD) in the same stalls with same SOC and all...

I'm in the build range as mine is May 9th it and it starts with May 7th but they said it does not apply.

IT DOES NOT STAY ABOVE 100KW FOR NO MORE THAN 10 SECONDS!!

Mileage is not the number that is relevant because you need to look at the kW. Besides, look at that graph posted, it should be much higher.

What you really should write is this: "I didn't read but I am judging"

Wow! I really wish you'd be in my shoes. "Normal Supercharing behavior" and I am the the one creating fictitious stories and Tesla never lies. See attached screenshots from yesterday after they cooked the car for hours and drove it around for 30 miles and pre-heated it to 80F for 30 minutes...

Honestly, I would not consider my experience as the rule but rather an exception. I also came from a BMW to a Model 3. I had a 535xi. BMW Dealers have their own faults and their own issues. Funny enough, even after that entire experience yesterday/and prior I'd still recommend a Tesla. In fact...

Correct. Except that we are talking about 150-200 miles non stop road-trip in summer and fall and pulling into a supercharger and still getting a slow charge rate. I even get regen limited message almost every day. For example even this morning with the car being in the garage overnight and the...

Yes, I will film it again as all I did was take a bunch of screenshots. I do not like threatening people/companies with social media as results are very mixed from those avenues. It is one thing if you are Rich Rebuilds with 400k+ subscribers and it's another when you are just another minion...

Thanks will take a look, don't think that is the case.

I couldn't agree more! But you have to put this in perspective - most do better. They kept telling me they are not getting error codes thus they cannot help me. The problem that the people working at service centers are not software engineers. They don't understand that for an error code to show...

When I supercharge I always have it set to 90%. I don't supercharger unless its a road trip and there I am always going for 90%. I change between 70-80% depending on my expected usage. I never get the full charge rate.

Just called Tesla, my build date is May 9th, 2018 so it falls into that SB but he checked and it was not listed under my VIN so no joy there.

No I was wrong to say bullshit. That he is right about, I'm sorry but I agree with him on that. He was just doing his job and that is either what his manager said to do or corporate culture. If I was in his place I'd say the same to me. I was talking to my wife after and I told her I was more...

I most certainly want to keep the car! I just want to be able to use supercharger like everyone else. My brother has a Model 3 which is even 2 weeks older than mine and he never experienced these issues. His supercharging experience is slightly more limited than mine since he did not take as...

Supercharger bypasses the onboard charger as the onboard charger is a AC-DC converter. The contractors flip and pass the current straight to the pack. Superchargers are DC chargers.

I had never used TeslaFi and I've seen these graphs. My charge profile is never past 74kW for more than 10-15 seconds. Regardless of all other factors. This is over the corse of 10,000 miles and 9 months. I mean NEVER!

I had great experience for delivery and contact. Zero issues. They were super quick and responsive. However it was back in May. I had not tried other service centers. Good tip.

My build date is 5/18 as on the sticker but which date is not listed there. Anywhere where I can check? I believe that makes sense.

Thanks for the tip. I will PM you as I believe at this point it is my only option. What I forgot to write in my original post is that I use my car daily and I am up to 10,000 miles since May 30th. I love everything about it, I had lots of issues with Bluetooth initially but they fixed that and...

My home town of Paramus, NJ!

You must not know how to read, most of my posts are quite postive. I've spoken about paint protection, updates, waiting on getting my car, swapping USB cable and asking advise about winter tires and rims. Another thread was asking others about the supercharger and charge rate. accusing me of...

Not all batteries are created equal; most are good, but do you want to know what happens when you get a bad one? If so, this is a story you may want to read. I picked up my brand new Model 3 RWD LR on May 30, 2018. Just 2 days later we set off on our first long road trip from NJ to MA. We...

So what did you decide to go with?

Paramus. Which tires did you decide to go with?

How about wheels that do not require the adapters? Anyone know of any that are just the correct diameter?

Looking for model 3 rear bumper trunk ledge.

The offset is +32 thus requiring hub adapters? If so, I am not a fan of that, it feels a bit too ricey. How much are they?

If you get a package like that from tirerack that is already mounted and balanced why do you need to go to the shop? Jack up the car and swap them out.

Hi Folks, I will be the first to admit that I probably could have done a better job searching but the search engine on the forum had not been that ideal. I know the title says Good, Light and Cheap and I can only have any of 2 of those. But how about something in the middle? I have RWD LR with...

I found if you go into BT settings and hot disconnect and connect it begins working again.

If you are Chuck McGill you should probably stay away from superchargers.

just got it last night as well. really hoping the echo issue is fully fixed. the .26 was much better but I still needed to reboot quite often to get rid of the echo.

Customer Service says .26 will fix it. I got 24.7 pushed and so far it had been okay but I didn't drive much. Pixel 1 user here.

I couldn't take the echo issue anymore and went to SC because calls to customer service were useless. customer service did tell me that .26 explicitly fixes the echo issue but .24 will as well. The guy at the SC told me that they have a geo fence and the car updates when you pull up there. He...

same issue with Pixel 1 XL

You won't get there in this Model 3. I am willing to bet that FSD never comes to M3. Maybe some more advance highway driving but 0 chance to Level 4 or 5 autonomy. ZERO. Google had highway driving down to 2-3x safer than a human being about 10-12 years ago. They even stopped doing highway...

The auto-park feature is worthless junk that probably was written as part of some hackathon and forgotten. The same thing on 2016 VW GTI works 10x better. This POS hardly ever detects any spaces and when it does they are all wrong. I often back-out from my garage and this idiotic thing thinks I...

Where in NJ? I'm in NNJ. Would love to swap.

2010 535XiT with M/T. 1 out of 327 in 3 year span for the entire North America. Sold it for 3x what same year and mileage sedans were going for.

Would be interesting to know what happened. They used to be buddies forever.

Matt from - Clear Bra Installs, ppf, Auto Detailing, ceramic coatings in New Jersey did xpel on my front in my garage and I'm very satisfied. They tuck in the edges and you don't need to go anywhere. This is a second car he wrapped for me and I'm very satisfied. I'm super picky. I also know the...

Interesting, I don't see the history in my account. But you are right, CC is charged. No idea where in my account it would be. Edit: Scratch that. I see it under history.

Both times SOC was around 47%. First charger in East Greenwich was the one where I saw 111kw or so before the charger stopped working and the Sagamore beach, MA was like 67 peak before it dropped to 40s on all stalls.

New M3 owner here. Took my first trip from NJ to MA. Stopped in RI to charge. 7 out of 8 stalls were empty. First one, dead. Would disconnect after 1 minute, 2nd one I got like 110kw and got super excited. Then it disconnected abruptly without a warning. The other person charging in the MX next...

When I picked up my car I was told that supercharger fees just add up and when I go in for service I'll just pay the tab. But now I am wondering if it is possible to see all the money spent. I see it shows me latest charge but nothing about previous ones. Am I missing something?

Given RI is like NJ for price of charging is per minute. I recommend you only go when you are below 30-40% because it charges $0.24/minute when charging above 60kw and $0.12 when below. BUT. Yesterday I got like 10 minutes at 120kw so it was great but rest was at 67kw so it really sucked. I was...

It was also ICEd. I think 3a and 3b were not working and 4a, 4b. I ended up using 2b. 1a was ICEd. You don't plan on charging at home?

East Greenwich, RI. I called Tesla they confirmed they knew about the issue.
