Tesla’s energy app predicts how much % you will consume for a trip - what I do is try and do 1% better than Tesla prediction as my challenge to keep it interesting. I have checked the time it takes to do the trip if you do on normal motorway speeds of 70-75 and reducing the speed to 60-65mph...

Is that not the Y comes from Germany since the 1st week of June?

But doesn’t Elon have a factory in Germany (Giga Berlin) to produce cars? May be the whole point of setting up a factory in Germany was that :-)

This view has been challenged recently with auto makers especially Tesla playing havoc with the market. There is a nuanced view about this especially if you are buying EVs in general and Tesla in particular. Tesla value drops dramatically and there is no clear trend other than Tesla producing...

And you have to see the wing mirror at that time :-). My mirror in Y picks up all the curbs but still yesterday I just applied a wee more steering and bang - the driver side rear hit the curb. My other half immediately pointed out how mean I was when she curbed the model 3 :-(. I have the rim...

How does it do it? I am just curious wondering whether I can reduce the power manually to 3kw or may be 10amp in Tesla app?

Can we set it like that? Does it stay on that for example if I set it to 10?

It always worked like that since they introduced auto cancel. I like the way it works. You either do it auto cancel or keep it 3 flash and full press.

I did not receive an email. Mine is Tesla PCP. But I gave my licence id documents at the time of purchase and they uploaded it on their system.

All the Revive franchises do alloy wheel repairs. Also check with local alloy wheel repairs I am not familiar with Herts local.

Rim covers also can leave scuffs so depends on your needs. If you want to cover the existing scratches rim covers can do that job and depending on when you are planning to sell the car you can use smart repairs and fix the rims. Or if you want to do it now before putting those rim covers be...

Hope it is not me 🤣

RR Velar base model against Model 3 or Y. Model 3P or YP is in a different category to base model Velar. I was comparing the base model the new Velar that starts from 54-56K.

I was in Italy last year and even a year before. There was a mini crowd looking at my Tesla. And this has nothing to do with a really creative narrative the title of this thread is about.😜

Happening in premier league, others complain but that is it, Sovereign wealth funds and middle east sheiks rock up and throw money around to get legislation challenged.

It would take just an amendment to the legislation - And if Elon promises more money to UK in terms of investment, all the politicians will be willing to change any regulations. Or he just has to employ Manchester city football club lawyers then they can just sue the regulators for their unfair...

You still can do a 10 minute test drive on any SC and check whether those cars have these vibrations. Different people on this forum may have different views around these as some of these are subjective. As this has happened to you in a second new car I am wondering whether you are expecting...

Don’t tell me you know this only now and going by your 500 posts here I am sure you are aware of this much earlier. I don’t know what you know about Model 3 when it all started, Tesla consciously made a decision to keep the manufacturing and prices as low as possible to gain maximum profits by...

Reality as per your views unfortunately.

If lady gaga can live with it with her status as celebrity I don’t have any problem with the CT look. They know the attractive quotient of looks and that is why they are who they are. Yes of course you can have your own opinion😜

That’s marketing- try and do that with a Ferrari- it will look ostentatious display of wealth. Try and do that with a Cybertruck- it is environmentally friendly, quirky, renewable, futuristic and cool.

Yes but it is a product from Tesla. They want to show this around the world. If you don’t want to see it well and good for yourself. And just questioning their product without even trying and their marketing strategy is OTP. BTW, Tesla is not the first car manufacturer to show case their product...

Jeez…you just hate Ts and E. Not sure how you are living with one on a daily basis :-)

All revive and chips away and any smart repairs do the alloys.

Leasing companies do not mind if it is not OEM spec tyres.

Why?

I think it is a non UK registered car thing. UK registered cars - if they are identified as CC exempted / ULEZ met the standard, LEZ does not appear on the vehicle list. I have only CC - exempted and ULEZ standards met on my web page.

I guess you have not driven any budget cars that have some integrated satnav (Seat, Mazda 2 or even the old ford fiesta with a 7inch) :-)

Depends on how big the screen is - Yes, you don’t need that in a 3/Y but you may need those in standard base model 5-7 inch tomtom satnavs. In fact in those days (even now for smaller ones), the standard of satnavs were judged based on how good they were just by driving based on listening to the...

It looks like it is possible because of NFC. Add watch just like a ring or fob. Follow the link for setting up key fob for instructions. https://www.tesla.com/en_gb/support/tesla-vehicle-keys There is a video of this guy opening with galaxy. Update on this page once done.

I may be wrong but I can think of two reasons: - field of vision - good to have that in the same field of vision as the speedometer. The new one being on the edge of RH side it makes more sense. But agree it is invisible. - the second one is bit trivial - the screen is more dynamic with this new...

I think you have to weigh the risk before going to one of those non approved ones. There are ‘n’ number of issues beyond your control with non approved ones. I wouldn’t take that risk with a Tesla. But neither me nor the forum members can make the decision - will you? That’s the question. There...

But since I’ve started driving Tesla ie now 4 years I rarely crossed the speed limits and raced against time. I try and save 1% less from their trip prediction and that is my new challenge since I started driving Tesla. The good thing is I don’t have to worry about speeding fines and mobile...

-a new audible app - if you have subscriptions - apps for climate, map for newbies from other legacy cars - Spotify with some improvements - time line of your trip - speed camera chimes again if you have subscriptions - arcade, theater , boombox as separate apps - nav screen adjustible -...

This link has the details you need to contact Tesla body shop repair or other approved network. https://www.tesla.com/en_gb/support/body-shop-support

It looks like Tesla service centre job. You have to use the app and take some photos and attach them and book an appointment. Yes, it may have to come out of your insurance as probably they need to check whether there is any damage to battery pack.

There is still home/work options available also I think you can search from the display - haven’t explored it fully. The one thing which is bit overcomplicated was the not so obvious media options - as it brings up the big window again and to choose from their.

@RajG may be onto something to uncover the secret of how Tesla sends updates :) Good luck with that - all your predecessors had failed. The only pattern that emerges is couple of forum members (can’t remember their sign in names - anthonyLR and dilly??) receive updates very early and at the same...

Nah, don’t worry too much. Other than rain and sunshine nothing much happens once it is out of the ship. Though the possibilities of miscommunication is great as you are dealing with Tesla if you leave a message - from not dealer prepped to no message passed to anyone🤣. Take the risk at your...

Like ….you mean Europe :-)

Elon’s tactic to bring some crowd to Emptihad may be! He is a United fan so may be he is doing it to show Manchester is always Red :-)

I used to get my updates early when I had my model 3 but with my model Y I get the updates only at the end when others go onto the next versions etc., The good thing is probably you get a more sorted version of the updates. The bad thing is all the features been listed, documented and discussed...

See below using - google maps instead of the share to map in photo 2 and using share to map in photo 3. ABRP map

Don’t do that - share plan in ABRP - it will have share to map, open in apple map, open in google map, export to excel, add to calendar. By some reason share to map - opens up only the first stop. But if you open in google app it brings the entire ABRP map to google and from there you can share...

I can send it using my iphone - so may be it is to do with iOS vs android. Did you try sending using an ipad or mac - if you are using any of that?

Does anyone know how to input the IO charge pricing in Tesla app as the off peak time change everyday? I am wondering whether this will make it harder to calculate the charging expenses, as at the moment most of the time the IO smart charging schedule falls outside the off peak time I have given...

There is an interesting article in cleantechnica about Sponge, camels and supercharger team. It is an interesting insight to how big things get done and the authors view is of the SC teams are approaching zero technical or engineering risks. There are logistical challenges, regulatory hurdles...

That’s the trap, no women likes buying anything there. But it is just a shopping mall and you get 2hrs freedom to check your car without her interruption and manage the pre trip mourning 🤪

You can ask her to do some shopping at Brent Cross that may possibly make her happy 🤣

It will be the same in 2035 - except with cupholders costing £100 as an accessories and a new kidney grille sticker with 2BHP more power and 6miles extra costing a cool £99,000 for the entry level model.
