I have heard of house alarm fitters using circuitry to fail the alarm just after warranty. But would doubt Tesla would be that stupid.

I may be late to this party, but I am looking at a replacement battery. The word I am coming up against is ‘Tolerance’ this is a range with a lower and upper measurement being within tolerance and so acceptable. You may find that your battery was at the upper end of the tolerance range and the...

Seems my M3P needs battery replaced. I would take a LFP battery in a second if offered. I changed my tennis ball machine battery to LFP, and has totally transformed it positively!!!

Probably the only thing new, is that it is new to your car. Tesla replace with batteries with factory refurbished, or possibly brand new. Look to the performance of the battery, relative to WLTP figures. If your happy then all good.

Thanks for replay….lots for me to digest and understand.

Model 3 Performance delivered mid December. I am not into the charge times etc, a little way to go on that front. But my car is charged to 80% and has a range at this moment of 238, add another 20% gives me 297.5, which is well below the advertised number for my car, yes I have the 20...

Back to the blind spot! For me it is wonderful. 12 days into owning a Tesla I can say i have not as yet found a good seating position and need the camera to help me see. The B pillar is so large and I am thankful for this change. Positionally it is wrong. A few seconds in the top left of the...

New update apart from the silly stuff, I do like the blind spot camera. But I really would like the window in a different position or have the ability to move it (which I have not tried so forgive if you can). Bottom right is probably for the left hand drive cars rather than UK cars.

Tesla V5C arrived over the weekend, tax refund arrived today from DVLA. So all really quick, 5 days. Envelope with cheque looks a bit like a circular letter! Almost junked it, then I saw SA99 on the back. Don’t forget to end any warranties you have on old vehicle.

I ordered on the 8th October. I ordered it on the 8th October. I have a Spotify account so happy to use that in the car. Voice control makes life easy for music selection. The car is so fast, too fast for other drivers. I think they see nothing special, and drive accordingly.

Here it is at Thorpe Park delivery Centre. Very happy. No usb, wireless charging, but not too worried. Front mud flaps installed, extended flaps in the boot. I have 1 year extended connectivity for free, so £120 saved. Sweetener for usb shortage maybe? Memory stick in the glove box. Ironic...

Hi, Eurotint seems to be a good shop

Just had the maybe text regards USB ports and wireless charging. That is a bit of a lottery. Also just had a call from Tesla confirming location and trade in requirement. So Wednesday noon Thorpe Park for me. Weather looking good for relaxed inspection. My pre delivery goodies are. Two MSD one...

Happy there is a another saddo besid3s myself!

Would different light configurations mean slight loom differences?

I have only just noticed the new cluster on the road, in that last few weeks. I just assumed there would be a clean cut and I would receive a car with new cluster. Tesla seems to give with one hand a take with the other. A confusing relationship, are we not the customers? Wednesday noon is my...

I suppose from next Wednesday I will have a degree of red caliper snobbery.

It’s a natural phenomenon.

Those that have collected from Thorpe Park, are there any charging facilities on site?

Thanks for Cazoo hint. Fortunately Tesla offer for my car only £100 less than Cazoo. I collect this coming Wednesday, I have not been so nervous about my car since I purchased it 12 years ago. All I see now is £8300 sitting my my drive. I had to get MOT after offer. I also changed oil and brake...

Yes sounds like Tesla not 100% sure, test is a catch all.

How long before delivery date did the ‘missing parts’ text arrive? I pick up on 15th

Locking nuts are essential. Imagine damage they could do to car battery just jacking it up. Locking nuts seen they just move on hopefully.

I recently had a Pod Point Solo installed. I believe it was right at the switch to the Solo3 so if anyone out there is thinking of Pod Point be aware the Solo3 is the newest. just be sure of what will be installed. I do not have the car yet, but I am worried about the charger and support. It...

Finally received the final invoice from Tesla. Sent £100 to check routing was correct. The money arrived in my Tesla account within a couple of hours (I was not checking exactly), which was a relief. Now fully paid and waiting for delivery date 15th to arrive. No movement on delivery...

will all be legal. just ECU and windscreen issue on my mind

very itchy about windscreen tint. Still have couple of weeks to make up my mind. original posts for this were 2018. Hoping some changes on Tesla since then.

arrived saturday, collection 15th. still no request for money I live in hope!

Tinting windows, 48 hours after delivery. But I have been told of possible issue with tinting windscreen due to ECU located in front dash anyone aware of this? has the ECU been moved as posts relate to 2018

Really need some help. Insurance, how on earth do you insure on a VIN and drive Adrian Flux has said no. My insurer does not do it. Do you insure on the day! Car may not even re registered to DVLA for some time, due to COVID sloppy shoulder syndrome. I have a reg from Tesla so at what point does...

Are there any directions where you should park trade-in car? Thanks.

Anyone here expecting delivery around 15th December? If so have they asked for the money yet?

Hang on no USB interfaces, does this mean Sentry mode has no way to store video? If so this is a spectacular omission.

Absolutely no idea. Cash buyer also. I will be making a test payment to make sure it is going to the right place. Then send the rest.

Well I have a delivery date of 15th December. Used the ‘schedule’ trick to get it before It was actually sent to me by Tesla. Black 3 performance. Hope it comes complete! Time to pick up essential accessories. Anybody know of good tinting shops in NW London/Watford area?

Anyone out there with a list of essentials for the car once delivered. This was very much a spur of the moment purchase and I am way behind on knowledge front

It was the first time I had looked. So no knowledge of when it was assigned. Good to know it a physical car. Just have to wait for the money request.

Well I had a look at source, and I do have a VIN. Bowing to the expertise here, how significant is that?

Ordered M3P 9th October with a delivery date December. Today received a text ‘calculating delivery date’. I became quite excited until I read that it means pretty much nothing. Anyone here with experience of this text and is it as bad as some on web are saying?
