Notification arrived last night, updating this morning (UK based) on my 2021 Model 3 (Intel Atom).

Installed the latest Tesla update this morning and at 12.15pm received email from Octopus: We’re really sorry for the bother. Tesla has changed how their cars connect to third party apps like ours, meaning drivers now need to add their Virtual Key to smart charge. It’s quick and easy to...

First autopilot drive this morning, the nag, thats annoying. Have the .5.1 update to do yet.

First update .6 since getting the car back from bodyshop, chuffed with the real colours on the side repeaters and rear camera 👍 and Hebrew language of course 😋

Brief Update: Dropped the car at the bodyshop on 11th September and was provided a Model Y (LR with 20” wheels), and my car was returned today 25th Sep. As a recap the incident happened on the 16th August, called my insurance on 1st September for an update, they said they had sent the dashcam...

Well your experience doesn’t fill me with confidence. i emailed the video to the police, they responded “We will view this, however it is correct that you are dealing with this through your insurance company.” I have a niggling feeling I won’t hear anymore from them. Talking to my insurance...

Sat in coffee shop this morning, just sat down and started listening to a podcast, through my airpods a notification that Sentry mode triggered alarm state, car alarm triggered. Look up to see Merc passing my car and making a quick exit from the car park. I’ve seen it there before charging, I...

1st July today, having 4 new tyres on the car. Found a nail in rear left the other evening and also found the rears are close to legal limit (should have checked earlier). Checked front and there at 2mm. At Kwik-fit now for Pilot 4 Sport Silent. I know people debate don’t make a diff, I did...

Considered the MG4 but wife preferred interior of e2008 so picked up a top spec 70 plate with only 8k miles on it. I would have chosen the MG4 but it’s not my car, have to admit the interior of the e2008 is very nice and seats hold you really well. Hope the SW fix has resolved your emergency...

Have you tried emailing Cleevely EV Mobile? See if they might be cheaper, at least a human will read what you type 😁

Made the trip to the SC this morning and was all done in the space of 30 mins. Latest AC harness cable installed, this one is gen3, mine was factory fitted gen2. Waited while it was done, couple of coffees, nice chat with one of the guys in the showroom. Thanks to technician who called the...

Thanks Cardo. The 4th drive in the car today and the alert returned.

Popped out for some lunch, parked up all good. Jumped back in after eating and before leaving the car park, an alert popped up ‘Unable to DC Fast Charge - Ok to AC charge’. CP_a163. Arranged a SC appointment for next week, diagnosed as cable replacement, AC Cable - Charge Port to HV battery...

Not chancing it tonight as down to 20%, turned off smart charging and using the tesla app to schedule.

Anyone else have a schedule in the app last night but didn’t charge?

Bought these a few weeks ago. Very happy with them.

In car /Tesla app scheduling worked woke up to 80% charge. (Posted last night I turned off Octopus smart charge).

Popped out to car to find it had stopped charging at 46% (limit set to 60%). I had started the charge from the ’Bump Charge’ feature in the Octopus app earlier this evening. Opened the Octopus app and it couldn’t load up the device page and eventually crashed out to the app login screen. Never...

Mine didn’t charge, checked Octopus app about midnight before going to bed and saw a charging schedule to start at 1230. Woke up this morning car still at 34% I plugged in with. I’m charging it now to 60% I have to leave early tomorrow to get to SC appointment, can’t risk no charge tonight.

Hi I’ve got an appointment coming up at the Birmingham service centre and an in app message says I can’t wait onsite. Has that been anyone’s recent experience. Last year I was able to sit and wait. Can anyone recommend a good place to work from nearby for the day, just working on a laptop and...

I’ll use them later this year when it hits 2 years. Watch plenty of their videos by James, top chap.

Stick. We‘ve run a Kia Niro Phev 4 years now and M3LR just over a year. I use the Phev now mostly for school runs (daily 24 miles), lads Sunday football (covered in mud 😁 ). Have to charge every school night unless M3 needs a top up. Cold weather the Phev petrol engine kicks to warm the...

M3LR charged to 80% and shows 256. We did do around an hour on A roads followed later by an hour on motorway last night before plugging in. Couldn’t tell you want previous software versions reported at 80% as I use % indicator. V2022.44.25.3

My kids said it had to start with a T and then said Tessie, I thought nope, so it’s Thor.

Just turned on auto indicator tonight but didn’t realise you lose the 3 blinks & stop feature. Will have to try that experience, I imagine my wife will moan at that loss and want auto turned off.

On IO, car didn’t charge last night, typical, the one night I didn’t check the app to see a charging schedule. I know it’s beta, just sharing as a lesson, check your app for a schedule.

Sorry I cant help but could i be cheeky and ask what firm you used for getting your PW installed?

Happened to me Wednesday morning.

Last night I got home and forget to take my phone out of the car and later (not sure how soon afterwards) my wife got a notification that the doors were unlocked, although she didn’t tell me till later when I looked for my phone. So they fixed one bug 😁 as I tested that when first updated and it...

Had a ranger out last week for some door rattles and the o-ring was done. Sept 2021 car.

unplugged the car this morning and set off when we noticed the car hadn’t charged overnight. It was the first night I hadn’t checked the app that a charge schedule had been displayed. I’m having to check and refresh the app every night I plug it in for the last few weeks. I know IO is beta so I...

Dropped the other half off at Birmingham airport at 4.30 this morning, using AP on the motorway, high beam came on multiple times when headlights on the other side clearly visible or tail lights ahead of me clearly visible. Return journey on the M6 on a left bend it turned them on with lots of...

In the octopus app just change the charge limit and it will likely refresh and update the charge schedul. Happened to me a couple of times past week. I posted earlier in the week.

same, on the device screen change the charge limit and the screen will refresh and show a schedule. This worked the other night but tonight the schedule shows one hour 30 mins to go from 33% to 85%, that’s not right at all. I guess I’ll bump charge it at 1130 tonight. hope this gets sorted...

After the Netflix documentary it bugged me enough that I did exclude the VW group mainstream brands(budget didnt reach Lamborghini levels!) from my next car search. Had been looking at Audi & looking forward to one. This ended with me getting a Kia Niro (only hybrid at first). This then sparked...

On a drive home last Saturday I noticed it was announcing on 2 consecutive roundabouts take the 1st exit yet the map route showed it was the 2nd exit on both I needed, I know this route and the 2nd exit is correct. If I’d been somewhere new I’d probably have listened to the instruction rather...

Great service from Tesla Birmingham today, windscreen replaced, felt alien driving the car this morning after so many weeks not driving it. Time to send the paperwork to the insurance company to get reimbursed, minus window excess.

When you take it to them do you have to give them your keycard? Will be my first service centre visit.

yeah fingers crossed 🤞 they contact you. On my estimate states they’re also ‘installing Supermanifold to Compressor Pipe Insulation Foam’, £0 cost. I’m just down the M54 if any local users ever want to meet up, I think I saw another local user posting recently, maybe have a mini meet up and...

What Service Centre are you using? As Birmingham never mentioned to me they’d need it overnight, only ”we will need your car for a full day”.

Fingers crossed for you but chances are you’ll get a call like I did in March saying they don’t have it in stock.

Have you got an appointment time or waiting for confirmation of time?

Yeah April 21st LV agreed to that but Tesla Birmingham can’t fit me in till end of May. Mine cracked March 17th.

nice one, wish I could get sorted that quick. End of the month for mine, time seems to be passing slowly 🙂 never had a car covered in so many cobwebs!

Thanks Drew, good to know 👍

If i join this tariff with my Tesla M3 and on nights I don’t need it charged could I plug my PHEV in (I have a dumb Rolec charger). Using the cars scheduled charging(like I do now) to charge during 11.30pm to 5.30am, will it charge on the cheaper rate, just like having the dishwasher or other...

Hey Neil, yes raise a service appointment through the app. i received a text from Tesla that there is a major back order on windscreens but they are seeing some stock slowly come through. I’m now booked in for the end of May, not great but at least it’s a confirmed date. I would raise via the...

Have you booked in with Tesla? When can they fit you in? Update: LV called back and confirmed only a windscreen claim and not a normal claim logged against policy no impact or need to declare in future. So same process you described above. Now to try and get it booked in with Tesla.

Hi again, LV are saying they’d have to log a claim as Accidental Damage, did you have to do this? I’ve asked the advisor to ask his management if any other way, I don’t want an accidental claim logged against me that could impact my renewal.
