Brilliant, have been trying to ask proplates themselves with little joy. I got worried because the BNMA website says they consider most vinyl plates would probably NOT pass some of the new more stringent tests and therefore illegal. If proplates are say they are compliant then shouldn't be any...

For anyone who's ordered from proplates... do they carry the "BSAU145e" certification mark? This is now a legal requirement for plates after September 2021.

Mine is getting PPF this week. I'm also with Admiral and had read previously they were pretty chilled about it so good to get confirmation.

"ultra" PPFs like Suntek Ultra also has hydro-whatsit layers so water will bead off easier - hence no need to ceramic over the top. The term "ceramic" itself seems like a marketing invention - yes it contains Silicon Dioxide, but thats like saying I'm an ocean because I contain water. What...

Unless they could prove the PPF was material to the claim I think their limit would be to NOT pay for damage caused to the PPF unless the T&C's say that you cant apply cosmetic stickers or other external protection products to the car. I know Admiral class PPF as cosmetic.

I've been mulling it over and have booked to get a full body PPF in Suntek ultra which doesnt need ceramic coatings over the top. My main reason is that my previous car (Outlander phev) was covered in scratches from bushes along narrow country lanes. With the MY being just that bid wider I...

Now they're here did anyone with an ODB doofer and the right app measure the exact useable/max battery size? I'm still hearing people say 75kWh and I've found the % displays in the car dont seem to tally that well with the number of kWh shown in the app because numbers are rounded up or down...

Now, if you happen to be an Iron Maiden fan and a Tesla owner! 🤟

These guys (Unique Tesla charging cables - evChargeking) have a tethered cable replacement with the magic button... You know it would be a simple fix for tesla to provide an option to not lock the charge port when the car is at home. I know some will scream about pulling out a cable while the...

I tried asking elsewhere but only got guesses for answers... so here's my question: In the energy app, why would the "instant range" prediction be different depending on whether the 5, 15 or 30 mile graph is being displayed? The manual says the instant prediction takes the last few consumption...

Well of course. However, the instant range value really should be the same regardless of which graph is currently being displayed because if you watch it while driving it updates every few seconds... so what factors would affect the range based on the last few seconds of averaged consumption...

Driving down to Cornwall this afternoon and LTE disappeared about 3pm'ish. New MY - thought it was just a duff signal until I realised my phone was fine. Haven't re-checked to know if its come back.

It's nothing more than a guess.. albeit not totally unreasonable. It depends what Tesla mean by a data-point. In the world of telemetry devices record a constant stream of "raw" data at some period, eg 100 milli-sec, 1 meter, whatever. Normally raw sampling is done at a high rate and then...

Well no actually... I did a couple of searches and didn't have any luck. But, as it happens I don't think anyone properly answered the question and quite a few didnt appear to understand the question!
