  • I was able to get a detailed scan of all data from my 2015 Tesla Model S 85D showing specifics about my vehicle that Tesla doesn’t provide, but that is stored in the computer. I cover the highlights of the data that has accrued after 135k miles on the odometer!

    True to your words, another fine video that enriches our concept of this channel. Once again a much needed refreshed and inspiring view of a great app that Scan My Tesla gives to us. Good job sir...

    As far as I am aware, the supercharging transfer offer from the older Tesla to newer tesla(an incentive till end of March 2024) is linked to the owner of the newer Tesla (i.e. not on the car). So, for example, if you were to sell your Model Y, the 2nd owner would not be eligible for free supercharging (i.e. supercharging is registered/tied to the owner but not to the vehicle), which is bit of a bummer.

      Correct. Sc01 to sc05. Super lame. Which is why we only considered doing it if we were as sure as possible that we'd keep the car we're transferring free supercharging to for 10+ years.

    You've yet to change the battery on the 85? That seems to be the exception. I agree with you on keeping the S but isnt the bill for the battery and drive motor makes you think twice ? being its a 2015 model year 150k miles/8 yr warranty expired recently? ty for feedback

      The battery on my 2015 MS 85D is original. I've been following Tesla very closely since early 2017 and there have been examples of full battery replacements, but there are many more that are on their original battery even with high mileage. Informal polls in online groups I'm part of have confirmed that to me. Typically if there isn't a battery replacement under warranty then that battery will continue to serve a long life, albeit with some battery degradation over time. Just like any aging vehicle there's a possibility for a major component to fail and just like in any vehicle the owner accepts a certain amount of risk in owning that vehicle. If an engine, transmission, motor, or high voltage battery fail then the owner has to weigh replacing that component vs junking the vehicle. In the case of the warranty for my vehicle the motors and high voltage battery warranty was 8 years/unlimited miles. The bumper to bumper warranty lasted for 100k miles, but keep in mind I purchased mine used from Tesla as a CPO vehicle so the warranty was extended an additional 2 years. In my personal experience I've rarely owned a vehicle with a warranty. From childhood to adulthood nearly all the vehicles I or my family owned I/we purchased used out of warranty and repaired them as needed. It's really not a big deal, but I've noticed there tends to be a higher percentage of Tesla owners that are really paranoid about not having a warranty. We just maintain an emergency fund and if something breaks we fix it. So far after 75k miles that we've directly put on our Model S we have not had any big repairs (the most expensive being upgrading the MCU to version 2) and we've saved many thousands of dollars on minimal maintenance costs and zero fuel/electricity costs so at this point we're way ahead compared to if we'd purchased a gas car.

    We use the navigate to super charger function almost always and try to not have that trip be less than 25 minutes. We live in San Diego so it is never extreme on either end of the temperature scale. The car always reports that it is preparing the battery for fast charging.
    Does anyone know what battery temperature is ideal for charging/fast charging an S P85 D Tesla? We have noticed on road trips where the car is freeway driven at least 180 miles without stoping the charge rate is really high even when the percentage of remaining charge is over 20+%. We have assumed it is because the freeway driving warmed the battery to an ideal temperature (yes, we use the navigate to super charger function almost always and in these situations as well). Could the long drives allow the car to regulate the battery to an "ideal" temperature and that is why the charge rate is so high (for our model/year/battery)?

      If you have a high charge rate while supercharging and the battery is in the ideal temperature range, then most likely the reason why it's faster than my Model S is because Tesla tracks the overall DC charging (as shown in this video for my Model S) and once you've reached a threshold (I don't know what that is, or if it's tiered) they begin to reduce the charging speeds, at least the length of time at the peak charge rate anyway. I don't know what the ideal temperature of the batteries is for max charge speed, but if I had to guess it's probably 75-95 degrees F. I agree with all the points you made about navigating to the supercharger so that it knows to warm the battery if that's needed. I navigate nearly everywhere so that's pretty automatic for me. Most of the time I'm supercharging it's while we're on road trips, and most of those are in the summer so I haven't seen really slow supercharging very often personally. I've found during road trips in the winter that the battery will still get too cold for max charging speeds even when driving straight through the entire battery's charge in one drive. Just depends on how cold the ambient air temperature is.

      @@ElectricTechAdventures Thank you. We did not know the thing about Tesla reducing our charge rate once a certain threshold was crossed. I think we have a ways to go (hopefully).
