    My Tesla Model 3 Highland experience – 1000 kilometres and 2 weeks later (in Ireland)

    When you spend €100 on cleaning products, but then come down to see this beading you know it was worthwhile :)

    Pic of your Model 3.......RIGHT NOW! [model 3 pictures thread]

    Spent a couple hours doing a snow foam, deep clean, wax and seal. Delighted with the result. Only have it 3 weeks now, what a car it is.

    Well, I'll let the photo do the talking after spending a couple of hours with a snow foam, clean, wax and seal. What's your thoughts folks? I'm well impressed with the result.

    So a small couple of updates on this since my original post, with some learnings for myself in it. 1. I was using Sentry last weekend as some kids were playing football on the street beside my car. For whatever reason, it then decided to turn on automatically overnight for the next 3 nights...

    Hi, sorry for delay. I have that measured for you. It's approx. 57mm from bottom of the "S" to lip of the boot, if that's correct in what you were asking, See photo below (hard enough to take with my left hand while holding Vernier in my right!).

    Ah yes, I get you. And yes that is correct, it only turns off per journey when I mute it. Others I have spoken to with a Highland have found the same. I would be interested to hear if any other Highland owners have been able to clear this permanently.

    From the guides I've been told and where to look, I haven't been able to turn it off on car main menu. I have to mute it every time on the screen for each journey.

    Thanks, glad it was of help. Yes the colour choice for me was the right one, and worth the extra. My only other choice consideration was grey. Regarding getting home on day of collection, it really is all about what level of charge you get. As I'm from Galway, I'm not very familiar with Dublin...

    Thanks. It could be any guess really. My EDD changed so many times I lost count. However, while it constantly changed, mostly by day-to-day, it was still collected within the original "January-February 2024" timeframe. I have read that there is a push towards end of quarter, so that being...

    Yes we can get plans here for cheaper overnight charging once we have a smart meter installed.

    It's a double chime, that's audible twice when you just go over the limit. So think of 4 beeps to alert you that you've exceeded the speed limit. I have asked on a couple of forum and apparently you can't turn it off I've been told. But I was also told it's an EU thing, and not a Tesla feature.
