  1. Today
  2. With the clamps removed, I was able to test the battery, and it held up fairly well considering its age—four years. It was probably just corrosion, but I'll be sure to get the electrical system checked out soon. Additionally, I verified that all the available grounds were in excellent condition.

  4. Follow the advice and re-learn how to use the throttle. To learn how to do this, just search YouTube. At first, the P0607 indicates that power issues may have occurred, and you noticed the battery's dubious condition; nevertheless, you should get it tested under load. A short amount of time spent travelling drains the battery faster than it can be recharged. You did a great job cleaning and tightening it, but it may still be weak even after starting the car. Alternators have it tough with weak batteries. Quite a few recommendations on this website that defines codes. For more information, visit https://www.obd-codes.com/p0607.
  5. I will definitely try the manifold trick. I thought you had to remove the throttle body to clean it; I could probably do it, but I'd rather not. At our garage, I had a conversation with a man who agreed with you—just remove the air hose and gently clean the butterfly and body using a rag and some cleaner. The issue was immediately resolved after I did that. In any case, the difference is quite noticeable. I will go take care of that right now because I was unaware of the relearn requirement and, thankfully, we did not drive the car anywhere after the repair. the helpful advice is much appreciated.
  6. You already have everything you need to give this a go, and it could work. Starting the engine and spraying WD-40 around the intake will cause the gaskets in the intake manifold to contract in colder temperatures; if the engine's revolutions per minute (rpms) change, then there's a vacuum leak; another, less messy method is to pass propane over the area and listen. After you cleaned the MAF, the next step is to inspect the throttle body. Idle airflow can be severely reduced by even a thin coating of carbon around the circular throttle plate. Cleaning instructions: Inspect the intake snorkel for debris. After that, use throttle body cleaner on a rag and carefully remove the black carbon ring from the bore and butterfly plate edges. Stay away from spraying the electronics housing. The most important stage: It is necessary to conduct an idle re-learn after cleaning. To reset the ECU's learned carbon compensation values, disconnect the negative battery terminal for 10 minutes. Put it back in the car's socket, turn it on, and let it run quietly for ten to fifteen minutes until it gets hot enough to run.
  7. My girlfriend doesn't know anything about cars, but I do, so we've been attempting to diagnose the problem with her 2010 Corolla 1.8 with 155,500 miles. For the past five years that we've owned the vehicle, shifting into gear (auto) causes the engine to gradually decrease in RPM until it trembles and nearly stops. After cleaning the battery posts and clearing the code, the problem that caused it to throw a p0607 yesterday has not returned, so it appears to have been resolved. We have not encountered any other codes since we acquired it. Additional things that I have done include replacing the air filter and plugs, cleaning the MAF, looking for hoover leaks and adding techron. I am competent in the fundamentals, but I am terrible at figuring out what's wrong. Due to the short distances she travels on her way to and from class (just one mile), I changed the oil every three months regardless of the mileage. The trans has behaved better after I drained and filled it a couple of times when it was acting up. It has reached a stage where, when cold, it starts up fine but immediately drops to about 2-300 rpm and occasionally dies; however, after a few seconds of gas, it smooths out and runs normally. The chillier weather appears to be exacerbating the problem. If we can just prolong this ordeal for another six months, it would be ideal, since she is nearly finished with nursing school. Before we bring it to the shop to get it properly diagnosed, is there anything else I should try? I haven't done that yet because I've been sick for four months, my girlfriend is in school, and I'm single-handedly paying all the bills, so money is tight. I genuinely hope she doesn't become stuck or miss class because of it. I was going to attempt cleaning the throttle body, but I'm not sure it would be effective and it might be a bit beyond my skill level. Thanks for any suggestions.
  8. No matter what kind of adapter plug you might need, Tesla charge cords are the best. Nobody knows how to make a problem-free product like Tesla, so I wouldn't even think about using an aftermarket cord or plug.
  9. Amazon.co.uk : ChargePoint

  11. Some mobile charging has caught my eye. Typically, it's ChargePoint. 😖
  12. There isn't a "better" charger out there that comes with the Model Y than the Tesla Mobile Connector.
  13. Search: 79 results found for "tesla" – EVSE Adapters
  14. https://go.skimresources.com/?id=130832X1692478&isjs=1&jv=15.7.1&sref=https%3A%2F%2F
  15. The two. You can buy a bundle of adapters from Tesla or buy them separately. In the event that you require an adapter to plug into an outlet that is not covered by Tesla, there are third parties that offer them for sale (for example, EVSE Adapters).
  16. Tesla was the source of the two extra adapters I purchased. Why? Because, at the time, they were the most affordable option for me to buy them. It was more expensive than a brand new Tesla, even when listed as "used" on eBay. It is expected that you possess the Mobile Connector, as well as adapters for 120VAC 15AMP and 240VAC 50AMP, given that your vehicle is a 2026 Model Y. Is your Model Y here yet? Or are you still waiting for the VIN and/or delivery date after placing the order?
  17. I appreciate your feedback. It was news to me that there were other adapters to choose from. Is it Tesla or a third party that offers them?
  18. Amazon.co.uk : Tesla Wall Connector - Electric Vehicle (EV) Charger - Level 2 - up to 48A with 24' Cable
  19. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0FN9YVHB2?ascsubtag=v1-2a14b2-39942-350f4c7306-d
  20. A couple of the adapters needed to use the Tesla Mobile connector are in my possession. A 120VAC 15amp and a 240VAC 50amp are provided (the mobile connector requires 32amps anyhow). Both the 120VAC and 240VAC 20amp adapters were also bought by me. They can be quickly and easily replaced; resetting the Mobile Connector to a different voltage or amperage is not required. Apparently, some of the less expensive models rely on you to adjust the settings correctly; however, I cannot verify this. I have them all in my trunk right now, along with the Mobile Connector. Since it kept breaking for someone else, I was fortunate that someone offered me their Wall Connector for free. I think the reason it hasn't failed on me once is because I've only set it to 20 amps, whereas he may have had it set to 48 amps.
  21. Amazon.co.uk : Tesla solar
  22. https://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?search-alias=aps&field-keywords=Supercharger
  23. When I am not near a supercharger, I would like to know which charger is the best option for both 110V and 240V. Many of my friends are semi-offgrid and have 110v solar panels, and a few of them even have 220/240V outlets that I can plug into. Looking for some feedback on whether there is a better or more universal mobile charger; the Tesla brand seems to fit my needs. Many thanks
  24. Yesterday
  25. Here is a consolidated thread. Any comments that don't fit together demonstrate why we prefer one thread per topic rather than several.
  26. Those are the switches that go on your clutch pedal; anyone who has ever changed the cabin filter in a Scenic 3 will recognise them.
