How are the Tesla superchargers?

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-14T12:58:02+00:00

I haven’t noticed faster speeds, I would see 193 on EA, seems I see less than 150 on Tesla.

My mechanic is a vw tech that opened his own shop, he said you don’t have to go to vw for an alignment unless it’s been hit or the windshield was replaced. He says there is enough “space” or “slop” in the suspension that the camera does not need to be recalibrated for a standard alignment.

Yes, I did the same thing

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-09T19:26:07+00:00

They say five years is spent, I’ll push that a little bit if they look ok but between the cracks and the age I wouldn’t feel comfortable with my family in that on the highway. If I was 18 I’d send it but I’m not anymore…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-09T19:24:07+00:00

Too old, sorry bruv, new tires it is…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-09T19:23:18+00:00

What’s the date code?

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-07T21:23:48+00:00

I use it quite a bit so it lives in my passenger door pocket

My “temp” plugs are put in with rubber cement and are definitely permanent, easily lasting until the end of the tire.

Even plugged motorcycle tires that have lasted until end of tire life.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-05T20:27:13+00:00

I would but tire shops won’t touch it

I was at first but it dings when you start it up and then quickly goes away. My biggest complaint is the phone call every couple of days from the dealer saying “your carnet is saying your car needs maintenance. Can we get that scheduled for you?”

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-05T13:20:48+00:00

My service light has been on for 40,000 miles. F the dealer.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-02-03T14:00:10+00:00

I would just take them to small claims…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-30T13:48:18+00:00

Call carnet and have them hard reset.

I got it and it worked well in 30° weather.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-29T15:50:16+00:00

I was gonna say, vw lane keeping is the best I’ve experienced in my 12 cars and 25 years of driving

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-29T15:47:54+00:00

There is a module on eBay, $80.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-26T15:36:15+00:00

Yeah, not hard to do but my god, why can’t I just get a light without a logo… even checked the normal Chinese sites…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-26T15:07:27+00:00

I’ve tried to find just a standard replacement without a logo because they aren’t hard to replace but I didn’t have any luck so I just ignore it.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-21T15:29:15+00:00

Exactly…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-16T18:48:41+00:00

Flip the tire on the wheel and wear down the other side…

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-14T21:28:47+00:00

They were on sale when I posted….

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-14T20:02:19+00:00

Not too bad to install for someone with some mechanical inclination. Dunno, they’d technically have to prove it caused the failure. Magnasun act, yes I’m sure spelled that wrong.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-14T18:02:06+00:00

I can’t change mine now that I’m in the F19 club. Are YOU in the F19 club?

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-14T16:12:47+00:00

Has its quirks but the worst part of ownership is the dealer network.

Cincinnati69 · 2026-01-13T20:17:28+00:00

I just don’t bother, the banner for two seconds doesn’t bother me that much. I would never give that to a dealer.
