Hi, which one are you on ? Taycanforum.net ?

Volcano Grey, CT Turbo. Options were chosen based on would I actually need / use them; Porsche aren’t shy with charging big money for what appears to be an endless list of options. That’s another reason I liked the Tesla so much, hardly any extras / options to choose !

Have always wanted a Porker (well, an electric one anyway) so gone for the Taycan Cross Turismo. Totally different vehicle to the Tesla from a build quality perspective but I’ll miss the ease of charging and OTA updates and general fun of the Tesla.

The time has come to move on. A big thank you to the community here for all the help, knowledge and passion I have been fortunate enough to benefit from for the past 3 years. 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...

Thanks, went with Halfords in the end, apparently they have done a few before and know what’s involved.

Hiya, Can anyone recommend an MOT centre in Solihull area that has experience of doing Tesla’s ? Thanks in advance.

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...

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. When I call a number I cannot hear it connect or ring over the cars speaker. Tesla model 3 is shown as the output on...

Was driving down to London and noticed that I had a crack in the windscreen (passenger side) Can’t remember a stone hitting it or any other contact. On arrival at my destination, I popped the frunk and it appears that a piece of trim from inside has come loose under the wiper and lodged (I...

Many thanks, no, this is a one off trip.

First long trip in the M3P; Birmingham to Edinburgh (and back) Any do’s or Dont’s ? TIA

Thank you for your comprehensive reply, much appreciated.

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 :-)

I had the same issue, 2 button reset seems to have fixed it though

Spot on appraisal ! Some really patronizing people on there who see Model 3's as the scourge of the earth (one 'chap' calling them the 2020's equivalent to the Ford Mondeo) Having said that, there are some very knowledgeable contributors on that group (as there are here !)

Hi, thank you all for your input; I have spoken to Arval and the amount in question is actually a credit not a debit; it just wasn’t clear on the invoice. Original lease amount was based on the tax being applicable, as it isn’t, then they have issued a refund. Very honest of them !

Thanks Guy's, that's exactly what I thought !

Hi, I received notification from Arval that I will have to pay an additional charge of £384 for Vehicle Excise License Government Tax Adjustment for my (soon to be) 1 year old M3P. Is this correct ? Has anyone else had this notification?

I have the same set up as you and I’ve only ever been able to use my Rolec charger as a ‘dumb’ charger with the EV Energy app.... I’m not on any preferential off peak charging rates so I’m not overly bothered.

Some of my playlists disappeared, a re-boot seems to have fixed the issue (so far).

No noise whatsoever

I've just got a quote from Churchill for £383 which seems incredibly good, I am currently with Direct Line and went through the same exercise with them and its £439 for the coming year (that's Direct Line / Tesla specific quote) so i'll probably phone DL and see if they can match (or get near)...

Yes, I got a few from Abstract Ocean, they are ok but I found that they easily become dislodged and lose their scent after a few days or so.

Yes, I think @DaveW has cost us all plenty ! (but absolutely worth the investment !!)

From China it comes by train, takes about 8 weeks

My car is leased, I had this, had to speak to lease company to reinstate app privileges then it was ok.

Agree, he is excellent

I ordered and received the same, great quality and arrived within a couple of weeks.

I’ve had this, ticket needed closing down .

Re-boot worked :-)

Been getting this for 3 days now, anyone else experiencing this ?

I've just received mine through today (from Russia), superb quality and feel very comfortable.... wish I'd purchased 2 !

Sadly yes, on my 3rd one now in 8 months (this one looks like its sticking !)

Spot on

Uber Prius's don't help; even if they are hybrids..... the majority of people making derogatory comments about ev's don't know the difference between a full electric and hybrid.

I think 35%

On On the lights or the rear windows ?

Sort of, it was just a cheapie film off AliExpress I thought I’d try and they actually look pretty good

Midlands members, if you are after a de chrome (as well as numerous other treatments) I can wholeheartedly recommend Adam and AutoDreamworks who are based between Lichfield and Tamworth. They’ve done a fantastic job on my M3P today, I think it is a great improvement on the standard look. Adam...

Exactly the same experience as me; the installers came out and replaced something in the Rolec unit and it worked for about a day and then the app shows the car as connected whether it is plugged in or not. It's not a deal breaker for me as currently I am on a fixed price tariff with Scottish...

Correct

Never managed to get it to work, won't stay connected to the car / charger for any length of time. Had the installer out twice now to rectify issue but no luck. Signal from charger is well above minimum required for stability, just use it as a dumb charger now.

Spot on ! Like we all were whilst waiting :-)

£350

Incredible photographs, looks an amazing trip ! I can thoroughly recommend Norway as a place to drive, wonderful coastal roads (albeit a haven for potholes) but the scenery is stunning. I go to Tromso each year to see the lights and whales but I have to admit to flying up there rather than driving.

Simply stunning !!

Cracking idea !

That will be my next course of action
