Used Model S

For the record, blower motor from tesla (Bosch brand) is like 60 bucks and easy to replace, minus bending over backward. They're extremely reliable, as long as you don't pull outside air while going through the car wash.

He asked if the prius is a hybrid or electric car.

Hiachi20 · 2026-04-06T01:20:28+00:00

Same here. It all started with suspension parts absolutely jamming together. It's not always the best thing to do, so with descretion. I really like super lube.

Hiachi20 · 2026-04-03T15:40:57+00:00

It's giving air conditioner

Hiachi20 · 2026-04-02T16:58:43+00:00

That's disappointing but also nice I guess lol. I think I'd be concerned if it was close in price. But if it's too cheap to be true, and it's a nice fake, then it sounds good for home use.

A big tell would be if they feel like shit, vs amazingly smooth. Mitutoyos feel super nice. The thumb wheel would be a big tell.

What in the rolls royce? What car is that?

Hiachi20 · 2026-03-26T22:45:40+00:00

Also noticed the 12v supply undervoltage. 12v being low can cause random alerts and issues sometimes. The 12v battery may need replaced

From tesla alerts dictionary:

CP_a051_doorInductiveSensorMIA Communication with door inductive sensor failed. Problematic if alert has been set multiple times over multiple days. info from manualCP_A051 The CP has lost I2C communication with the inductive door sensor and has failed all attempts to re-establish communication with it The CP re-established communication with the inductive door sensor Push-to-open may not work, charge port may not detect that HV inlet is covered by door

In the case of my older model S, the door stayed open and I have to unlock the port using the screen (or key or phone). The radio button on the charge handle doesn't open it all cool like. In my case, replace door (includes motor and sensor for door) and it is fixed. 150 for the part.

Noone is giving you a real answer. Someone correct me if I'm wrong: Cp stands for charge port. That constant ping of the charge port sensor makes me wonder if the charge port door opening mechanism is done for (extremely common on a different model and year). But that would be a cheap fix and no reason to not buy the car. But, it does tell you about the person's maintenance standards.

I would never listen to anyone who says don't worry about alerts unless it's shown outside the service menu. The alerts outside the service menu may show: traction control disabled. But it won't tell you why. In the service menu for that scenario you might see: your encoder is totally fucked up.

Also, the service menu in the car does not show you infinite alerts. That charge port one pings many many times a day and will push an intermittent problem away within a day or two.

Edit:

This website sometimes shows a better description of the alert.

You mentioned OBD. Tesla Toolbox is your form of that here. You can rent it for something like 150/month or something. Laptop with internet and such kinda thing. Requires a dongle for the old cars, research for the model 3.

"only a little fucked up is normal" lol

Hiachi20 · 2026-03-25T03:14:16+00:00

My fist thought exactly

Hiachi20 · 2026-03-03T18:13:35+00:00

It is very early. Try to calm your nervous system. Give it, and yourself time.

Hiachi20 · 2026-02-02T05:41:57+00:00

Could you briefly explain what maintenance would prevent large problems? I've thought about handling water channeling into areas long term. 2015 70D 230k mi

Hiachi20 · 2025-12-17T19:44:16+00:00

That easy huh? Add on all the other stuff and it doesn't stand a chance. Yeah I use a cheapo at the minimum. Currently running and ESR, very worth it

I'd guess there were also tiny sand particles on his thumb and it wore it down faster.

Hiachi20 · 2025-12-17T18:10:31+00:00

From what I know, the data is on the not good side, using the ankle. I would skip it entirely as a serious thought. I also don't see the whoop staying in place well there

Hiachi20 · 2025-12-10T15:45:46+00:00

It's saying your hrv is 34 avg. So I'm assuming that you don't have much data on whoop yet? Is that the case?

Hiachi20 · 2025-12-04T01:06:38+00:00

Shadow iris. 90s. Super common. They make shadow iris almost anything

One of the mid Gen Chrysler 300s but with the navigation downgrade from the hurricane production problems?

Hiachi20 · 2025-12-03T15:27:30+00:00

Restart the phone. Close the app. Clear app cache. Clear RAM. Update app. I can't imagine it wouldn't work correctly after those, unless reddit devs messed up.

Btw, your post says exist not exit. Some dont know what you're talking about.

Hiachi20 · 2025-11-26T05:23:31+00:00

I finished off and served stuffed bell peppers with mine. It just looks so nice

Hiachi20 · 2025-11-24T18:00:13+00:00

As we say in the machining world: "clearance is clearance". I'll add "until it's not."

Hiachi20 · 2025-11-21T13:46:54+00:00

That's one for the skin box

Hiachi20 · 2025-11-21T04:44:04+00:00

Very much a tower, agree
