    Upper Steering Column Bolt Problem

    I read somewhere that a model 3 owners steering wheel became detached due to it not being fitted correctly. It was believed to be a one off but reassured today to receive a call from Tesla that they are checking the fitting. 3 hours later a Ranger turned up in his M3. Check all to be okay. Wiped...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    I took delivery of my M3 SR+ on Monday from Birmingham. The experience was first class from us arriving early to leaving with a car that after my extensive checks using a check sheet from one of these forums was faultless apart from a fingerprint on the B pillar lining that they removed. I was...

    Paint Protection Film - Worth It?

    I have just rang DL on 0800 051 0036 (from Tesla site) and asked if PPF would change the premium. He said no even after I explained what it is. At the end when they ask any modifications I say yes PPF. Again he said that it’s fine. He confirmed that he deals with mostly Tesla’s and PPF is okay...

    Paint Protection Film - Worth It?

    How do DL think that protecting your paintwork is a modification so great that they won't insure you. Not as if it's going to make you go faster!! I was planning on a FULL XPEL PPF but I also intended to insure with DL as they were the cheapest

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    I ordered mine in October and when I spoke to delivery a few days later a March date was agreed. I've also had communications with both Birmingham and the delivery team who sent me a message confirming a March delivery. Todays test said 18th Feb. Guess they don't talk to each other

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Ive just had a text also for the 18th but unfortunately I can't collect until March. This March date was agreed with the delivery team previously, so by me saying "no" to the date now given will that put me at the back of the queue?

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    I was assigned a VIN number yesterday. Today I received a text to say that it would be delivered this month. I ordered in October with a specific delivery date of March. I've been told that I can delay delivery by 7 days so lets hope my delivery date in February is after 22nd as it's a leap year.

    Scheduling with Teslafi, Ohme smart cable or car

    If the charging rate is fixed on a update then that would sort things and should allow me to charge enough during the 4 hour night period with Octopus Go. I don't fancy getting up in the middle of the night to change the charge rate or worse checking to see if its charging at all

    Scheduling with Teslafi, Ohme smart cable or car

    At the moment I have a dumb charger (Pod Point) from when I had my i3 3 years ago. With my M3 planned for a March delivery I am undecided on getting the Ohme cable to make my charger "smart" or forget that and rely on software be it the cars own or a 3rd party app?? I will also be going onto the...

    so the best way to scheduled my charging time would be either through the cars software or a smart wall charger / cable. How reliable is the cars own scheduling ?

    Scheduling with Teslafi, Ohme smart cable or car

    I collect my model 3 SR+ in March and plan to schedule charge times. I was planning on buying a Ohme smart cable to enable this, but the more I read about Teslafi the more it appeals to me. My question is; If I use Teslafi do I leave my charge lead connected to the car at all times and Teslafi...

    Tesla Tyre Repair Kit

    PPF coating for Model 3

    Some good advice there again thanks Joe. The quote I've had here for a full PPF wrap is £3500 + 20% VAT That's for Xpel with a 10 year guarantee. The plan is to drive from my collection point straight to the wrap installer. I might do as you suggest and try a sealant myself after the PPF and...

    PPF coating for Model 3

    Thanks Joe. I didn't know that PPF was so thick which is good news. Here in the uk we don't get too many sunny days maybe a couple of days before the weather changes and most likely rains. So its difficult to be able to apply any after market products on a regular basis expect for a few nice...

    PPF coating for Model 3

    We have our car on order for March and plan to have it wrapped to protect the soft Tesla paint. I've been told to make sure its Xpel Any thoughts? Also is it worth having Ceramic Coating on top of the PPF. We are planning on keeping the car for many years as I'm approaching retirement.
