    Supercharge a car not on the app

    Quick question, I have just bought my M3 from a dealer and I am waiting for the log book so I can register it on the app. What is the best way to charge it while it is not registered on the app (I am on a trip away from home)?

    Sunny Sun Sun - My first Tesla road trip from UK to Spain

    Did such stupidity (read: driving for at least 4 days for holiday) back in 2016. Had someone to change driver seats with me but did not like it that much... Now car changed, I was a single driver but though - welp, let's try again. Warning - Long read, almost biblical. TLDR: No regrets. Super...

    Supercharging for an Early Model S - Can't Tesla do the right thing?

    I was an early investor in Tesla (pre IPO). On April 17 of 2014, I purchased a Model S for $80k+. I currently have 31k miles on the car. When I purchased the car, I decided to not pay the $2.5k for unlimited Supercharging (SC) since I installed a home charger and was planning on only using the...

    unstable supercharge performance - thermal issue ?

    Good day to you all, I'm currently driving a S 100D from late 2017, now with 146 000 km on the odometer, a great car overall. I started to have supercharge issues last year. A charge would quickly ramp up to 135-142KW, but after a few minutes would start throttle at 100-110KW. After a service...

    Rating Supercharging

    Got a notification on my phone from what appeared to be from the Tesla app asking if I would rate my last supercharging experience. I touched the alert which took me to the part of the app where it list the supercharging history but there was no place there to leave a rating. Anyone else in...

    Model X Supercharging curves, 2022

    'Charge curve' graphs usually display charge rate , given in kilowatts, vs state-of-charge, given as a percentage of maximum charge, also known as SoC. (You *could * plot this as charge rate vs elapsed time which really illustrates why you don't want to supercharge to 100% unless you have a...

    Authorized Driver's Own Supercharge payment?

    Hello all, So here's the situation: I have authorized driver set on my account. He has his own log in credential with access to my M3. He also has his credit card set up on his app. But whenever he supercharge the car, Tesla still bill my card. It's not a big deal because nowadays there's Venmo...

    Is installing a charger in a condo worth the high cost?

    My quoted price was $5k (including a charger, permit, labor, etc). I'm hesitant since I live within a walking distance of superchargers and other public chargers. But my guess is they are pretty busy. (1) Is that price normal for an underground condo parking structure in LA? (2) The...

    Pre Conditioning for SuC - is this right?

    I did a long trip on Sun (to West Wales) and put the Aberystwyth SuC into the sat nav as the destination. Immediately after starting the drive, and with over 3hrs to go to the SuC, the message popped up on the screen telling me it was pre-conditioning for rapid charging. It eventually went off...

    Will I get a glider trailer into the supercharging areas?

    I've recently ordered M3 AWD LR + towbar. Very excited and thinking about various practicalities. One of them is that I'm a glider pilot, and will be visiting other clubs around the country with my own glider, which is transported in a ~8m long trailer (this one, to be exact). This will...

    Supercharging speed suddenly slow

    Not sure if coincidence, however, having had software 2020.48.12.1 the other day, first charge started with 21kw. Had 50 miles at start point. It stayed like that for some time, before slowly increasing. Eventually reached 46kw before decreasing again, as batteries filled. Undercharge, not...
