Looking at the details of the work, as well as replacing the inverter, the other two parts they replaced were 1096344-00-C and 1096984-00-E. Both parts look very similar and both parts look like they should stop water getting in, so my theory about water ingress into the inverter "hold's water"...

Update The car is fixed and we're flying out on Monday to drive it home. We didn't manage to get a loaner in the UK, so it's been problematic only having one car. Tesla emailed yesterday asking me to contact the Reading service centre to see if I could get a loaner, but it's a bit late now...

"Ultimately" is the key word there. You'll almost certainly pay for more insurance over the course of your life than it'll pay you back. The 7 figure salaries of insurance bosses don't come from charitable donations. I have no issues with taking risks or dealing with car issues in less than...

I'm very anti insurance. Ultimately, insurance is never worth it, otherwise insurance companies wouldn't make a profit. They're also one of the few lines of business where they maximise their profits by not helping their customers. Virgin money's "Aah, we don't mention self drive holidays", is...

No - no breakdown cover. I thought I should be pretty safe with a new car!

We were heading to La Plagne for a week of snow for the first week of the Easter holidays... it was an incredibly wet drive. Apart from a brief interval at Reims, it was hammering down for about 7 hours. As we were heading towards Lyon we received a message saying there was an issue with the...

I received 2023.6.8 too. It's also fixed the issue for me.

Apparently, 2023.6.1 is not available for my car. :rolleyes:

China MYLR picked up Sept 22 here - a familiar story in this thread. The same issue, the same response from Tesla. 2023.6.1 is rolling out very slowly. If anyone gets this, it'll be good to know if it resolves the issue. I've just created a service request asking if 2023.6.1 is expected to fix...

Is anyone else getting vibration on the steering on a Model Y? I picked up our car in September 2022 and recently the power steering became jittery and was no longer smooth. I booked the car in to be looked at but got a call the day before saying it was a known software issue on Model Ys with...

The most recent MYs out of Shanghai certainly have softer suspension than the vehicle we test drove. While the softer suspension does smooth out the bumps quite a lot, it does also feel like it creates a lot more wobble and decreases cornering stability. What are the thoughts of others who have...

Voice control works fine if you put on a crap US accent. The added bonus is the kids find it funny too!

Assuming you're the LF72WBY? I'm LF72WCY, collecting tomorrow!

You can usually add the reg manually with the car details I think. That's what I've done.

I hear admiral cancel your insurance if you speed 3 times in a month and punish you for driving at night or too far from home or in rush hour. Sounds like it's totally unworkable!
