It's a Tesla thing.
Tesla doesn't keep a buffer zone at the top end of the battery. 100% means 100% in a Tesla. Tesla advises to only use 100% when you need the extra range.
My tesla model y recommendation is 90%. I know lfp batteries are recommended to do 100% at least weekly. We do 90% but drive the car about 100 miles every work day so it doesn't even sit at 90% for very long, maybe 3-4 hours.
I change my cabin air filter every 6 months on the 3 due to this SFL humidity. Can get 8-9 months with our Y.
I've just hit 40k km on my car. Only brought it in once to change the cabin air filter.
Every 6 months to a year you need to replace the cabin filter and clean the evaporator.
70,000 miles on the X because the emergency brake pad fell out. They told me to redo the whole set at $2,000 since the ebrake was out and it wasn’t covered under warranty.
Same issue with steering rack needing replacement and power steering going out WHILE DRIVING.
I took delivery of my M3 in June and also had to have the steering column replaced. Wasn’t as bad as your issue though.
I was driving on the street yesterday when suddenly the steering lost control. The screen displayed "steering assist reduced," but the steering became extremely heavy to the point where it couldn't be turned. This was a dangerous situation. My Tesla was towed to a service center where they replaced the steering rack. However, they used the same model of the previously defective steering rack and were uncertain if it was from the same batch. I have lost faith in driving my car and am apprehensive that the same problem might recur.
My MYP went 12k before replacement
