    Charging issues 36.5.5

    I've been charging on a granny charger recently and the same 'feature' seems to be present. Set the app to 10A and it keeps dropping down to 9A.

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    Checked this evening and these are still in the same state, two months on.

    Model 3 Ground Clearance

    If that last picture is the worst of it then you'll be absolutely fine, I regularly drive over worse in and out of rural car parks without any scraping.

    Ohme's new smart charging app

    Yes, good point. £5 in Amazon vouchers for every 20 charges over 10kWh, makes a significant addition to the savings you can make on Agile.

    Ohme's new smart charging app

    I haven't tried it, but ev.energy does the same thing and works well. You definitely don't need a smart charger to take advantage of Agile with a Tesla.

    TPMS and the valve

    You don't need to change the sensor, if there's nothing wrong with it. Service/repair kits are available to replace the other parts, as you would when changing a tyre.

    Anyone leasing with Arval - additional charge [refund] ?

    At the time of purchase, the additional fee was £320/year, applicable from year 2 onwards. The refund is £320+VAT for year 2.

    Anyone leasing with Arval - additional charge [refund] ?

    Are you sure it's a charge of £384 and not a refund? VED was baked into my Leaseplan agreement and I got £384 refunded at the end of last month as a result of the new exemption.

    Car no longer opening with phone [Samsung Galaxy?]

    Hmm, mine is an S10, too. Is anyone experiencing this and not using an S10 of some variant?

    Car no longer opening with phone [Samsung Galaxy?]

    Yep, a recent update has made the phone key much less reliable for me. Sometimes it will open if I just stand by the car for a few seconds and wait, other times I have to wake up my phone, although that could just be coincidence that by then I've waited long enough for it to open and fiddling...

    Smart meter "not commissioned"

    Worth moving to the tracker tariff in in inteim, until your smart metersare sorted out. I've had an email from them this morning saying I'm ready to switch to Agile, despite them emailing two days ago saying they need to come and swap the meter (the 3rd visit). When I look at my account...

    Smart meter "not commissioned"

    Your issue doesn't sound exaclty the same as mine, but it's similar enough to possibly be linked. I too moved into a new build at the start of the year and the incumbent was BG. I switched to Octopus in April and have had nothing but problems trying to get them to take readings from my meters...

    model 3 performance Wh/m rate

    Took the PHEV to Wales and almost ran out of petrol...definitely wouldn't brave the Tesla just yet.

    356Wh/mi...I haven't thought once about efficiency, to be honest, just enjoyed driving.

    FSD / AP Rewrite - turning the corner?

    It's absolutely the unions. They can't even agree that drivers should open and close the doors as it puts the role of the guard at risk. The technology is there and has been for a long time, the Victoria Line runs semi-autonomously with human 'Train Operators' opening/closing the doors and has...

    Car won't wake from app

    I'm sure I used to have a Netherlands IP, but have no evidence of it. I do now have a Telefonica IP so have the same suspicion that a change of provider caused the issue, if it's even technically possible that the provider was changed remotely.

    Car won't wake from app

    Movistar = Telefonica in this context, correct?

    Anyone else pondering Model 3 to Y when it lands in UK?

    Leaseplan doubled your mileage for free? What exactly did you say to who?! Could save me a fortune!

    Motor whine

    I've done nearly 6,000 miles now and noticed a definite change in the whine recently, likely due to one of the recent software updates, I suspect.

    Octopus smart meter installation

    I've now moved to the Tracker tariff after asking for it specifically, despite being told two weeks ago that the variable tariff I was on was the cheapest available. After pushing and pushing they've said they expect to get an engineer out to look at my meters within 10 weeks. Not great, but at...

    So What Do We Think Of The Polestar 2?

    It's probably a decent car, but looks horrendous, particularly in profile, in my opinion.

    Sentry Mode/Dashcam Best Storage Method

    Jason71 clearly has shares in some SSD or SD card manufacturer :) If people want to spend 3 or 4 times the amount for a solution that might prove better in the long term the one the manual recommends and is proven in use at a price that makes it disposable then who am I to argue. Hope someone...

    Sentry Mode/Dashcam Best Storage Method

    There really is no need to use an SSD, just go with what the manual says. I've been using this https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B07FD878SJ for 8 months with no issues. More than enough storage, only £25 and neater than other solutions.

    My Leasplan M3 Has Disappeared from my Tesla Account

    I'm with Leaseplan, the car has never shown in my account, but like mrkwats, I have no trouble supercharging, can see my history, add payment methods etc. The app also works fine.

    Octopus smart meter installation

    Mine is SMETS2 and needs an engineer visit, apparently.

    Octopus smart meter installation

    Even worse, I had a smart meter already, switched to them and they can't get it to work and won't even come and look at that. Now I'm stuck on their standard tariff for the foreseeable.

    Insurance UK

    Should have said, Direct Line is who I'm with and the £1,400 renewal price. I've had no claims and have no points. Hastings Direct coming in a bit lower at £1,100 with a £900 total excess. Painful.

    Insurance UK

    Am I doing something wrong? My renewal on my M3P has come through at £1,400, LV say £1,600 and Admiral £2,500! I'm 36, have 11 years no claims, I'm a homeowner etc etc. Feels like I'm missing something, does the fact it's a lease and so I'm not the registered keeper/owner have an impact? Has...

    Delivery pot luck

    Are you guys using brokers? I ordered via a broker, financed by Leaseplan, on 2nd Dec and collected on 18th. Agree that there seems to be an element of pot luck, but my experience with Leaseplan was excellent, so potentially it's down to the brokers?

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Quick update... Current lead time for a M3P is ~6-8 weeks, but they're waiting on the vessel schedules for next year I ordered 2nd Dec, collecting 18th Dec, so turns out lead time was actually 2 weeks You won't get an inventory vehicle any quicker than that, even if one with the same spec is...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    In case it's useful to anyone, spoke to Tesla this morning (after being on hold for ~20mins) and was told the following: Current lead time for a M3P is ~6-8 weeks, but they're waiting on the vessel schedules for next year You won't get an inventory vehicle any quicker than that, even if one...

    Model 3 Leasing UK

    What colours did you choose? FSD? I've just ordered a M3P via Leaseplan and don't yet have a delivery date. There seems to be inventory popping up that matches my spec (white out, black in, no FSD), but as usual with Tesla, there doesn't seem a great deal of logic in how anything happens.

    Realistic price estimate - UK version.

    Using Model S prices as a comparison, my best guesstimate is that an AWD M3 is going to start at about £35k, so it will probably be possible, but you'll be limited on options. Base Price £29,889 (taking the headline 35k USD base and the current 'exchange rate' for a base model S in USD vs GBP...

    Uk Pricing

    Based on an 'exchange rate' for the base and long range options equivalent to the USD:GBP pricing for the S, I've put together the estimates below. Anyone disagree with any of this? Base Price £29,889 Long Range £7,686 AWD £4,700 Paint £950 Wheels £1,400 Enhanced Autopilot...

    RHD Countries 2019

    I guess the production rate by that point, coupled with the fact that most of the backlog will have been cleared means that there won't be a huge difference between our deliveries.

    RHD Countries 2019

    I ordered around 8.45am on 31st March, so would expect I'm somewhere near the front of the UK queue.

    On the plus side, at least we won't have to wait any longer for AWD

    A few questions before I pay my £1000

    I'm currently paying 11.65p/kWh plus a 17.44p/day standing charge. How does that compare with the US?

    What number am I in line?

    UID is generally Unique Identifier, but as someone already pointed out, whilst it is quite possibly sequential, it is sequence that mytesla was created, rather than reservation made.
  44. C

    What number am I in line?

    Interesting, I reserved in-store on the 31st, albeit in the UK and my UID also starts 980, followed by what could be a 5 digit sequential number.
  45. C

    What number am I in line?

    Can someone take a look at the source code of their MyTesla page so we can see if the UID means anything? <input class="VinName" type="hidden" name="common_vin_name" value="" /> <input class="CountryCode" type="hidden" name="common_country_code" value="GB" /> <input class="ModelCode"...

    At-launch finance for UK Model 3s?

    I'd expect a similar PCP option, as is currently available for the Model S. Can any UK S/X owners confirm whether this was available from day 1?
