Try resetting the GOM mileage estimator to the factory default before your next drive and see what it recalculates. One button and BOOM you have 320 again!
Personally i’m averaging 1.4-1.7mi/kh which is a bummer but I was prepared. My Tesla got now where near the rated range on my same...
Not to hibachi the thread but have you guys noticed that the rear wheels have a pretty good camber from the factory? My alignment shop said that they inspected the rear and found adjustments for rear tow but zero for camber?
So my use case is the extreme for EV use but I’ve been doing it for almost 4 years now. I live in the Phoenix area and travel weekly to CA for work. The particular stretch on I10 freeway from point to point only has 1 non Tesla DCFC that is basically required by any Ev making the commute as...
I didn’t go as far as marking the garage door but to my eyes is was about the same. Could be a bit higher. haven’t had any angry flashers yet. I did read that the little sensor on the UCA was a “headlight adjuster” but I can’t confirm that.
I’ve been running a leveled lightning for a couple thousand miles and all systems work as they did before. Bluecruse, lane keep, forward collision and surprisingly the headlights appear to be at the same level as before the level. I don’t know if a recalibration is necessary? My 2cents.
RANGE IMPACT UPDATE!
I have put about 500 miles on the truck since the lift and tires with some averages.
note: my commute to work is already worst case for EV. 400 mile round trip on the freeway averaging 75mph for the whole trip.
stock truck: average 1.6-1.9kwh/mi
Lift and tires average...
I was told that a “redesign” was in the works after they took my parts for investigation. No news yet. No further failures yet and we have had significant monsoonal weather this year in AZ. Fingers crossed.
So I’ve put about 250 miles on it and have averaged roughly a .3mi/kwh loss. Really not too bad considering the large majority of my driving is freeway at 75+ mph to work
That is the exact one! Yes. You need an alignment but. You can easily get it in and make the truck safely drivable to a local alignment shop by marking the present location of both lower control arm bolts before removing them. That way your tow will be nearly correct but camber will be off...
Required a leveling kit. I went with a 2.3” leveling kit from Stage3Motorsports. Nice thing about their kit was it did not require a spring compressor to rotate the top hat. Bold on go! Highly recommend that kit if you want to level the lightning...
