I had a 30amp 240v EVSE in addition to the 120v EVSE which came with the cars. So I routinely had both plugged in. I once took my 2013 to YVR from Langley. I parked it with 52% left for 2 weeks unplugged. Made it home with 5% left. I wouldn't worry about being left unplugged... However, you...

Hello again, its been a while. Just got G4 upgrade performed here in Langley BC Canada Yes to requirement to log into Ford Pass app. It activated fine and I was also able to add my wife's account to the same car which was confirmed through my Ford Pass. Ford Pass has all the previous MFM...

Finaly our beloved cars both ranges are listed to play with routing. Dont know if I'll be able to try a long distance over the mountains here in BC Canada, but it's a great tool to review potential trips. Chris Vancouver BC 2017 Silver FFE

Thank you. It was fun to have two FFE's while it lasted. Could not quite manage the S85D. Although we did do an overnight test drive with one. It was quite jaw dropping. However, wifey loved a test ride in a Mitzubishi Outlander PHEV 2018. Which we bought in June 2018 and sold both 2013 FFE...

1) didn't get a net with our 2017. I think it got in there by accident. 2) fresh air intake vents to the heater core I believe. /Chris

Never seen a post on this forum about Thule. However, Tesla forum can be searched. Fairly significant penalty Are you getting a box?

2013 FFE and 2017 FFE In my trip Chilliwack to Manning is 120+- with the peak elevation closer to the end of leg. Hope to Merrett is also 120+- with peak closer to start of the leg. The Manning's peak is 100m higher. I reached the peak of the Manning's leg with 8% remaining. It should be do...

Thank you. I never had another trip last year to eclipse it. Returned to Revelstoke at Xmas . To chicken to try it with the FFE. Registered my old 2002 Dakota Quad cab for the -17C journey. /Chris

Thank you. Although I'm actively looking to switch the 2013 for a 2015/16 S 85D Would like to do some long distance traveling in the next couple of years. Will keep the 2017 and finally get rid of our 2002 Dakota Quad cab licenced for long winter trips. /Chris

They are, but does the system check to see if power is present at some point / points along the way. If the telematic module is acting up, i.e. not communicating to the app, could this cause some sort of continual loop for the head unit? Big assumptions, I know. It will be hard for me to...

Very interesting link. Used a digital smart charger. Thursday overnight. Resting voltage read 12.55v. Friday did not charge car. Took readings through the day Friday, between 12.55v to 12.75v. Saturday charged car to 90%. Did not drive the car. Readings through day read the same as Friday...

It is as easy as any other one I've changed over the years. Have you ever changed a car battery before? Respect the order you remove the terminals... Negative first. Do not use long bare metal tools when work with a battery! The plastic battery surround towards the front of the car needs to be...

Thank you for the reply and link. I'm wondering if pulling the F1 fuse for the duration of an airport stay would give the 12v battery a break. I don't remember anyone mentioning this. I have pulled then reinserted this fuse to fix a non-responsive telematic module... I think that's what it's...

I have: -2013 with 75,000kms, new battery 4 months ago. -2017 with 10,000kms, bought in June this year. Just got back from a 10 day vacation. Friend drove to airport. 2013 stays outside. Temp were approximately 0-8 C 2017 stays in attached garage. Say 10C daily consistently. 2013 resting...

I'm so use to my 2013 that I never thought until 2 days ago to turn up temp setting as the AC was blowing very cold. With my right display setting showing 'climate ' I felt the air less cold while the climate gauge did not climb.... Could it be they smartened up and regulated some hot outside...
