Yes if the car is on it charges the 12V. Here is what I do.
Unplug the car
Turn ON the car - foot on brake and press start button as if you’re going to drive it
Disable "Vehicle Power Down Timer" in vehicle settings
Turn OFF the headlights fully (rotate knob counterclockwise)
Turn off the HVAC...
Yes, this particular powertrain update requires a high SOC on the 12V battery. I had to do the "Stay On" Method for a couple hours to get the update to install (even though my car is driven for 1 hour + every day).
From my understanding it's up to Tesla to authorize the vehicle for being able to use the SuperChargers (certificate installation on the vehicle too).... not Tesla specifically authorizing the adapter itself.
If the vehicle is allowed and able to charge there, the adapter should not matter.
The vibrating steering wheel is Lane Keeping not Lane Centering. Lane Keeping is to alert you and help keep you from drifting out of the lane. Lane Centering works to actively keep you in the center of the lane.
Yes, you can have HOBC (ACC+LC) by turning off 'Hands Free' in the Cruise Control...
Yes, I'm sure FordPass is aware of requests like these. I've seen prior posts asking for exactly this. It would be a great enhancement.
We'll see how 'soon' they can roll out something like this.
Huh? It has always been there (it may have bugs, but it's there).
LFP batteries can be charged to 100 daily. But yes, the NCM batteries should not be charged to 100 daily if you want a long battery life.
Only if you're running the HVAC too. The recommendation is to turn off HVAC for the first 10 minutes of a DCFC session to allow the system to heat/cool the battery.
The notes on PlugShare indicate this station is cable limited to 200 amps. So you would have maxed out at about 75kW anyways.
I used some of the silicone lubricant and it seemed to work well. My Tesla Tap Mini was a tight fit on the Tesla side.

Go into the Cruise Contol menu and turn off Speed Sign Recognition (aka: Preditive Speed Assist).
It's a well known issue with either the maps having bad data or the camera mis-reading the speed limit signs.
True.
But do you really think an engineer is going to hand an adapter to the CEO without having tested that it works?
I think the 'doing some testing' is more of 'let me see it for myself'.... trust but verify.
