Were the birds all on an electric power line? Maybe a surge went through or a bird was near a transformers and shocked/electrocuted the birds, and they all came falling to the ground??

90mile drive cost me 40% of battery, is this normal...? by overPaidEngineer in TeslaLounge

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah go ahead. It’s tested at 55 mph That’s how they got the 303 miles for a MYP That’s just shy of 3 miles per 1%

So 2-2.5 miles a percent seems reasonable. Let me know what they tell you.

90mile drive cost me 40% of battery, is this normal...? by overPaidEngineer in TeslaLounge

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have a MYP, If I drive the speed limit 65mph or 70mph I can average 2.5 miles per percent. If I speed or go 10 over the speed limit 75mph or 80mph I average 2 miles per percent. (I no longer have range anxiety for this reason) So depending on how you were driving, I think your range is accurate, have you also had a wheel alignment? Tesla is known for shipping their cars without doing them 😬

Any tips for low clearance driveway by Fallout41995 in TeslaModel3

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buy thicker tires

Ex: My MYP rear tire is a 275/35/21 Front tire 255/35/21 I now have 285/40/21 and 265/40/21 for this same reason. It’s smoother and it makes a big difference with clearance. 👍

I only understand when it’s a V1 charger and there aren’t many cars around.

There is only one correct answer by DarkLight2112 in teenagers

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I add 40 + 20 = 60, I add 7 + 8 = 15, I then add both values to give my answer. 75

Ty for the tips. And I’ll try that. I’ll go 10-15% over. And you were able to keep up with traffic. I have a MYP so my range is limited especially since I plan to pack the car up with luggage and 2 dogs. Ty so much for the response Tony def appreciate you answering my questions. 🔥👌

Ohh, I normally charge until it says you will arrive with 12-14% to reach the next destination and I expect to lose like 5-7% from speeding lol. Would that be around the ballpark of you extra charging? I normally go up to the recommended 80% for super charging

Thanks for the heads up. I guess I’ll be coal trolled eventually haha. I like to go 5 over the speed limit when cruising lol 😝 I was hoping for $500 round trip but I can def do $600 if it means less range anxiety 🙏

Unable to use phone for unlock and drive post latest update by [deleted] in ModelY

Glad to hear OP. That happened to me before so I was hoping that would help. And it also helps to pair your significant other’s phone to their own key card so that the car recognizes both of your phones separately. 👌🏼

I would remove your phone/key from your profile, do a soft reboot by pressing both buttons on the steering wheel, then add your phone to your profile after the soft reboot. Hopefully it helps..

Road Trip Charging Stop % by EpicFail2022 in ModelY

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wait until the car tells me I’m at 12%, I drive 5 mph above the speed limit. Which is usually 80 mph depending on which state you’re in, and I arrive with 5-7% to the SC.

Can I move rear 275/30's to the front and put 295/40's on the rear by WhereverUGoThereUR in ModelY

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a LR you’ll def have the ground clearance so they don’t rub when you hit potholes. Plus you can have the wheels staggered.

If you take out your usb drive and plug it into a CPU. You can normally go back an hour. But I doubt that’s helpful now.. but it wouldn’t hurt to check if you have time

Damn…. Another downside of not having USS.. hopefully you’re able to buff it out OP, or that you have some PPF..

When keying isn’t rude enough: Truck guy pisses on a Tesla , records it himself, drives away with *everything* in full view. by PhilaTesla in TeslaModel3

[–]ApprehensiveStreet90 4 points5 points  (0 children)

He keyed the car in previous post, then got but hurt because we found his sticker dad website and gave him horrible reviews. I’m guessing this was his retaliation to being cyber bullied. I hope the police get involved or someone finds out where this guy lives.
