I've had 2024.14.6 for a couple of days now and agree the speedo font size, improved visualisations and wiper controls etc, are all welcome changes. One oddity I have noticed is that the indicators seem reluctant to self-cancel when turning off a roundabout or on some other turns, meaning I...

"Just Stop Oil" (Well, apart from a bit for my Tesla, obviously)

Sometimes there's just nothing to add.

Second that - and with the benefit of free charging at work why spend any more?

You can but it uses energy to pre-heat. Doesn't help with the reduced efficiency in colder weather compared to a 'conventional' battery.

Or fart.

On your first point, and to be fair to Octopus, it was within the Tesla app that I was offered the choices on access. Part of the Octopus process prompts you to sign into the Tesla App. Again, thanks for the help.

I made the mistake of 'simply' deleting my car with a view to re-connecting it as Octopus asked. Disaster. TL/ DR - Tick both boxes. As ever, it turns out more complicated than you might think, at least for me it is. On the re-sign up process, a (Tesla) screen pops up asking you to tick either...

Wasn't the reduced top speed (125mph?) part of the reason for the tyre change with the Highland? Seem to recall Musk saying that as no one regularly drives at 140 mph* reducing the top speed could reduce tyre cost as lower speed rating applies? *(Tough luck Fritz!)

In London, seriously? Head to an underground car park somewhere.
