After changing to my summer tyre/wheels (Michelin Pilot) I have noticed a slight "vibrant/swishing" sound from one or more of the wheels on the motorway. There is no steering wheel vibration or any kind of vibration that I can feel. The wheel cover is securely fitted. Might one of my rear wheels...

Since the latest UI update I have noticed the reversing screen is now frequently juddering or freezing for maybe a second while reversing. This is somewhat disconcerting : the net effect is to slow my reversing down considerably to avoid unseen hazards otherwise out of view in the mirror. I...

Je prévois que lorsque ma Model 3 RHD devra finalement subir son Controle Technique, il me sera peut-être demandé d'intervertir les positions du feu de recul arrière et des feux de brouillard arrière, car ils sont bien sûr du côté opposé au LHD. Est-ce que cela risque d'être un processus coûteux...

Since moving to France from the UK I have rarely suffered from phantom-braking events, thanks I think to the spacious much emptier autoroutes. However I have recently experienced disturbing events when pulling back in from the fast lane to the middle lane while a truck is in the slow lane. What...

An account of some of the few moving parts on a Tesla, which make an ICE by contrast look ridiculously complicated...

I recently had a windscreen chip repaired at a local garage. After the repair the pit was gone but the accompanying small crack was still visible (I can appreciate that this may be inevitable as the resident would be unable to enter the crack). However in addition I noticed that in sunlight...

Je vais quitter le Royaume-Uni pour la France dans une semaine. Tesla.fr ne semble pas avoir de voitures d'occasion sur son site. Y a-t-il un bon endroit en France pour trouver des modèles 3 d'occasion de bonne qualité ?

For a long time now I have had my car alert me to when I am driving 4 mph over the speed limit. Meanwhile whenever I turned on TACC and was not driving at the speed limit the car automatically accelerated to this speed, meaning that switching it on was always accompanied by frantic scroll-wheel...

Recently while speeding along the fast lane of the motorway on a long trip to Scotland on the hottest day of the year our car started slowing down to about 40 mph and an alert message said "Limited power available - (or it might have said "Reduced power") Exiting and re-entering your car may...

We are contemplating moving to France this autumn which will involve an avalanche of bureaucratic provisions, amongst them making arrangements for our Model 3. I just wondered if anyone else had embarked upon a similar exercise and can offer their experience on reregistering their Tesla in...

Looking in my Loot Box I have just under 5,000 miles of free SuC miles left, to be used up by 14 December. At the same time I am dying for a road trip, but the scope for long-haul European travel is uncertain. Also my last contract ended 28 Feb but I also have a meagre pension so I have plenty...

Sadly I don’t qualify... ABetterRoutePlanner on Twitter

Just had my weekly treat when I am allowed to get behind the wheel of my M3. Only about 5 miles there and back, but such a delight...! I am not sure whether I am still capable of driving it over 30 mph though...

It's clear to me that as long as AP has to co-exist with other human drivers and other road users, inferring other road users' intentions, communicating one's own intentions and negotiating a mutually satisfactory outcome will be the hardest task for any autopilot system. I hope that this thread...

I have an LR AWD with Premium Audio, but had always been puzzled that I found it somewhat underwhelming compared with all the glowing reports I'd read from other owners on this forum. However as a boomer M3 owner I also wear digital hearing aids. They're pretty good for most purposes, but as...

On a recent Tesla Owners Online podcast I heard a confident pronouncement that Apple Music is on the way to Tesla and currently being negotiated. Can anyone else corroborate this?

After a recent long trip in mostly intense rain, I became very aware of the Model 3's superb aerodynamics. Apart from the fact that the rear window was kept perfectly clear by the airstream even at the wettest moments, the evenness of streaking on the bodywork (literal "streamlining") testifies...

I have in the past had problems with sudden deceleration caused by my accidentally brushing the RH scroll wheel determining TACC target speed. That was disconcerting enough but at least there was an obvious reason for it. Last night however towards the end of a 300 mile drive, much of it in...

Can anyone recommend a provider of breakdown assistance for company-owned cars (but not fleet)? I have been advised that limitation in Tesla’s roadside assistance mean that it is sensible to take out breakdown cover with the RAC or AA for punctures etc. However both of these organizations only...
