I wish you all the very best of luck with your Tesla’s, truly a wonderful piece of technology. On a side note, I have to...

    Shout out for Tesla Mobile Assostance

    Amazing service from Tesla Birmingham. Some little sh*t broke my rear light on Thursday night. Clearly a deliberate act as no other marks on the rear of the car…. Anyway, went on the app and booked an appointment to get it replaced and was offered Tuesday 1st November which I thought was very...

    Morning, For those folk that have leased their Model 3’s (Performance) do any of you have an option to buy figure for mid 2024 ? I’ve just discovered that I am able to buy my leased car after my term finishes so was after a ball park figure if anyone else could provide this. Car - late 2019...

    iPhone not working on hands free

    Is anyone else having issues with not being able to hear the other party on a call over Bluetooth in the car ? Hands free functionality now seems to have stopped for some reason.

    Touch up paint for white 2020 M3P

    Apologies if this has already been covered. As we know, the paint finish on Tesla’s is pretty average (being kind!) I have recently noticed whilst washing the car that I have quite a few stone chips on my white 2020 M3P. Can anyone recommend a decent touch up paint ? TIA :-)

    Hi all, I have partitioned my SSD (connected through Taptes Hub) set up TeslaCam and music folders but seem to be having issues with both.

    Let's hope this approach is continued to be mirrored across the country.....Up to £70 fines for drivers who occupy a designated electric car parking space. £70 fines for Solihull drivers who nab new electric vehicle spaces

    Taptes deliveries

    Just a heads-up..... I ordered a Taptes Hub for my Model 3 about a month ago having seen that they were back in stock on their website. Delivery was quoted as being free and up to 25 days from receipt of order. A note of caution though; this does NOT necessarily mean they are in their...

    M3P performance depleted acceleration one battery % is below 70%

    Question - at what sort of battery % do you start to see a drop off in performance ? I have a M3P and personally notice that unless the battery is at 70% + then there is a noticeable drop in acceleration. Thanks in advance for your feedback.

    Model 3 P unlocked itself

    Morning, I’ve searched the forum but can only find references to MX and MS from 3 years ago. This morning I went outside to find my car unlocked. No Sentry events, no signs of damage, nothing on the cctv.... anyone else experienced this ? I use the iPhone app for the car and it was a long way...

    Rolec Smart Charger losing connectivity

    Does anyone else who owns a Rolec Smart Charger have any issues with the unit losing its WiFi connection ? This has recently started happening and gives the app some very irregular behaviour (saying the car is charging when it’s not as an example) I can continue to use the charger in a ‘dumb’...

    Tesla ‘Roadie’ New Sentry Mode plug-in

    Roadie for Tesla Thoughts ? The idea make good sense but it’s pretty expensive when you factor in shipping from the States and import duty.

    Recommend dash cams

    I’m considering purchasing a front and rear dash cam (in addition to the one installed as standard in the Model 3) I’ve looked through previous posts on this subject and there seems to be a compelling argument to do so. For those of you that have done just this; do you have any advice on make...

    Really good 16 min video of a detailed inspection of Tesla Model 3 (Performance) features. Just out today. Interestingly enough, there was a conversation earlier about the lights in the door cubby holes not being present now on the Performance Model 3.... When he takes out the liner of the...

    Sentry Mode - Cost in miles per night

    In an attempt to stem boredom over Christmas and the New Year I’ve conducted a very basic experiment with Sentry Mode and it’s associated battery consumption. Mine is averaging a 13 mile consumption (on at 21.00, off at 08.00) per night and this average seems to be irrespective of number of...

    iPhone app access to Service Bookings

    I picked up my M3P on the 21st December 2019. Love the car but have a few minor issues that need rectifying. I have leased through Arval. I am unable to request a service through the iPhone app as the option does not appear....Is this because the vehicle is on a lease and not through Tesla ? If...

    Frunk Hooks

    For those of us that have had cars delivered without Frunk Hooks then these can now apparently be ordered as a part from Tesla. I can't tell you how much they will be as they are currently out of stock but more are expected 'soon'.
