What does bleeding edge fab space mean?

It’s highly likley there will be shortages of this new chip, also, given its use in many major electronic devices like phones and tablets.

In this case… it really does. The Atom is a dinosaur chip.

There’s no guarantee the updated MCU will land in the first Q of ‘22. Infact, you could be waiting several quarters. Tesla don’t do model numbers or yearly releases. What’s happened here is they’ve filled papers for upcoming changes with zero indication of when they are likely to land...

Nah, I panicked at first thinking my pillar glass was scratched to hell and back, then realised it was a protective film, it looks horrible. I even tried putting glass polish on it to buff them out before I realised, what an Idiot. 😂 It may also hinder the effectiveness of the camera.

Photo of a car sat at TC atm. No PPF.

Oh really? Not noticed this on any collection pics.

So in reality, a highly rustable part I guess!

Ah, they put your premiums up as it's the Business Edition ;) haha, just kidding

What was your old car if you dont mind me asking?

Eesh, thats pricey! I got £550 with Direct Line whom are the same company, including NCD Protection, Guaranteed Hire Car, Motor Legal Protection and Greenflag Breakdown.

TBH I very much doubt this. No car I've ever owned has had plastic rockers, it seems the rockers here are also one continuous panel as you move towards the rear of the vehicle. Would be very unusual for this to be plastic. The rear bumper of the car is often plastic, but this is a different...

G Given others are having it fixed, “within tolerance” won’t hold much water. HOWEVER if it’s plastic it’s not a big deal anyway, especially if you only see it on close inspection. The caveat here is that the sill is indeed plastic.

Are you sure?

Any estimation of how long to fix? Could be weeks 😬

Get a magnet and see if it sticks to it, that could answer your metal v fibreglass q.

Not sure, what I do know is, this is a widespread issue, I've seen many, many cars with this problem now in Grey/Black/Blue, I think a very large number of cars delivered Q3-Q4 have this fault.

Let us know if they resolve it, I've seen some reports where they say it is expected and other reports where they've fixed it.

Yeah, you're missing paint mate on the sill, get it logged with SC

Congrats! Any paint missing in this area? (behind front wheels)

They’ve sorted the missing paint on other vehicles.

hahaha, I've got a tshirt too

Takes a few days buddy, you don't get a final invoice on PCP, but you will get a bunch of signed and completed finance documents in there (3 to be precise). Not getting a final invoice on PCP makes sense, as *you're* not paying the invoice price, you're taking finance, the finance company is...

Where were you collecting from?

You gonna get a private to mask it ;p

It will, as it always has. The SR+ has recently had this introduced.

Ah, it wasnt supposed to have these mate

What do you mean spot lights?

That sucks ;[

It does not no. Payment has a big tick next to it.

Did mine over 2 weeks ago, no confirmation.

Yeah, this, could somebody call CS and ask what's going on? They may know?

Give it chance to connect to WiFi or something. There are reports worldwide of it being enabled. https://driveteslacanada.ca/model-3/tesla-begins-remotely-activating-heated-steering-wheels-and-rear-seats-in-sr-model-3s/

Honestly, the reality is you should do it 14 days before, you don't want any bank delays to delay you collecting your new car (fraud triggers, money going missing, etc etc). 2 days is cutting it fine, it is doable, but 7 days would be much better.

You don't get one if on finance.

Possibly need a software update to grab them? 🤔

This is normal. You omit the 0 when dialling with a country code. +44 7xxxxxxxxx

Any paint missing on the sills where the front wheels are?

Infact, I just looked at my credit agreement, the cooling off period starts on finance when THEY sign and give you a copy of the documents. On my finance agreement, the signed date of the Tesla reps signature is 27/11/2021, my collection date, so they've signed it with a date in the future, e.g...

Doesn’t cooling off begin when you receive the goods? In any case cancelling a finance agreement does not cancel the purchase so you may still be liable for something even if you do execute finance cooling off. You’re protected for 30 days by the consumer rights act anyway if something is to...

Is this a Q4 2021 collection?

Anybody who has taken delivery of a Q4 Tesla noticed paint missing on sills near front wheel arches? Some people are reporting paint missing, 1 black 1 grey so far.

fml haha

I said tweeters, not sub ;) The tweeters are installed on LR and SR, but on SR theyre not connected, given theyre enabling heated steering and rear seats, theres speculation that the tweeters will be re-activated, there is also speculation they will have fogs. There have been no SR+ collections...

Could you get him to confirm if SR+ have fog lamps now and/or the front tweeters being activated? ;p

Are are you collecting today? Or just observing.

Keep us informed if you have any issues, I'm collecting this week too, so be good to know any areas we need to pay special attention too :)

Tesla Owners Club UK - Facebook Group - at least 2 people reporting missing paint in this location.
