Testing shipping mode overnight: any recommendations

[SANZC02]

I took the car in a couple of wells ago. They say the percentage drop is 4% per night which, in their opinion, is normal.

I tried shipping mode last night. It dropped only 1% --but that equaled 20 miles of range. So I don't get it.

I agree with @VSG, does not sound normal. It is a little cold where you are but not crazy cold. Do you park in a garage or outside? Do you have gear guard on at home? Have you checked your app to see if your vehicle is actually going to sleep?

I’ll give you an example of mine, I’ve had it 3 years and this is typical for me. Mild temps in mid 60s, been parked in my garage for 3 days, gear guard off at home, it dropped from 80% to 79%, I do see in my app that it does go to sleep, just checking the app to see if it is asleep does not wake it. If yours is not going to sleep something is not right.

Do you have the standard battery?

Do you have the standard battery?

I have the original large pack.

Yeah there's the rub: standard battery is a whole different thing. Acts strange in cold weather. I had a loaner with max pack for a night--very different experience.
