There are statutory limitations. Limitation Act 1980

Mod Request: random M3 Highland has appeared in the OP? Bizarre. Perhaps this thread has run its course. It was intended to be a courteous exit rather than another thread debating the state of the nation with our stateside cousins.

Ionic 5? I know it’s not a Tesla, but I fancy a change. Slightly fewer software updates. Max charge rate is good. Battery size is good. I like the look. Price is good. I’m not doing the miles anymore (but SuC now open). Not overly worried about key security- I don’t live in London or Birmingham...

It’s been a blast, literally. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my Tesla adventure over the last 5 years but I have started the countdown to the lease expiry date and I think I’ve made a decision on my next car. My needs have changed with WFH. Superchargers open to all seals the deal. I’ll try to be...

Wales?

TSLA share price has taken a 43% hit so far this year. Timescales reality check to deliver the FSD dream + EV headwinds generally? I bet there’s a few people lost chunks.

More LHD satnav ported to RHD behaviour? FFS. Slightly less annoying than diving off every slip road but still annoying.

I’m not aware smart EV chargers are made to the same standards as those for required for electricity meters (or calibration requirements). If not, there seems little chance they could be used for tax purposes. #good luck with that. Accurate within 10%...

So it looks like finance companies panicking, share prices slumping….but in reality very few DCAs in place. 🤔

I’m liking the matrix lights. However, not everyone has 20/20 vision and eyes in perfect health. ‘Incredibly bright’ for some means ‘blinded’ for others. I’m not sure ‘just get used to it’ is the answer. A couple of people I know would scare the hell out of me if all oncoming cars had incredibly...

‘Comning soon’, the Automated Vehicles Bill [HL] 2023-24 is in its late stages and I can’t see why a new Government wouldn’t (in a post Brexit world) continue with it. Part 4 on Marketing allows the Secretary of State to ban some words (by making regulations) from being used to promote cars that...

“keep them at 100% go on holiday for a month and only lose 5%.” you can tick that one off your list already. Musk promises that in 2036 that the long tail of problems *should* be solved and Tesla will *soon* activate Robotaxi for a one-off system registration fee of $15k which will probably...

If it’s un-drivable won’t your insurance provide a hire car? Given EV repair times the option should be considered almost compulsory!

Is it temporary though? I don’t see it returning any time soon. Look at the cost of Nuclear. The high prices do help the Net Zero journey though. While energy was so cheap the business case to invest in PV or EV infrastructure was reliant on altruistim rather than financial returns - you could...

By 24 Nov this year? The Public Charge Point Regulations 2023

So how would you turn off plug and charge?!

I didn’t say violent braking but I agree it’s behaviour associated with a car scared of cars in adjacent lanes. Annoying.

.2.8 I think my spirit has been broken. AP phantom braking when the vehicle in the adjacent lane to the left moves sideways within its own lane is just sooo annoying.

14,968 points so far this season or just under £19 and is a shed load less than last year. It’s a shame about the in-day adjustment but I do believe getting rid was the right thing to do.

WP. Pah. As for Ed, he’s your new best McKenzie Friend.

Gloucester Services. Both Northbound and Southbound, 8 stalls each. The cables are in the ground, cabinets onsite. v4 tombstones are on site. (51.8199824, -2.2273788) And (51.8188365, -2.2243365)

Looking forward to trying this next winter before my lease is up.

I think it’s a commercial decision to settle. A small cost and lower risk to settle. Easy decision for them in reality.

Or it’s a sign Tesla is not going to support the older USS with branched code forever?

I’m not sure this is about punishment or making Tesla bankrupt. A UK GLO doesn’t seem likely if it hasn’t already happened and Tesla has put aside the money to pay out anyway it’s not going to bankrupt it. I do hope it goes some way to warn firms trading in the UK about the risks associated...

Cabinets and v4 stalls are on site. Work in progress.

The FCA [not] having an impact then. https://www.fca.org.uk/news/press-releases/fca-confirms-measures-protect-customers-loyalty-penalty-home-motor-insurance-markets

The silence speaks volumes. I would keep quiet too. Goes to show that UK consumer laws do the job. Well done Ed for making it slightly more accessible for people to seek redress from Goliath (one of the most valuable companies in the world). I’ll play my hand and say I’m not in this club. When...

So, assuming DFS continue for the next 15 years, what’s the payback period on batteries now?

Just remember the back-billing rules too: https://www.ofgem.gov.uk/information-consumers/energy-advice-households/check-energy-back-billing-rules No electricity bill for 12 months = free electricity. Octopus had sent me bills over the years but there were gaps in smart meter data and unknown...

Two in quick succession- I thinking it’s a test of the systems ability to recover. I.e people offset demand, will they be fatigued, will batteries be recharged.

It’s a shame to hear but it doesn’t reflect my experience- Octopus are usually helpful and get there in the end. Have faith. You could do much worse. Anyone with NPower?

I’m reading too much into the silence (settlement negotiations?) High Court Enforcement Officers (Bailiffs) seem like they know their stuff. In a business context I have found a simple Statutory Demand letter highly effective. More work for TW. Prob leave it a few weeks and setup a proxy poll...

£17k? https://www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/edinburgh-couple-fume-handed-17k-27906242.amp

If they can do it, save 5% across the entire global fleet and that’s a lot of electricity saved.

The post above prompted a search. Just to keep spirits up, it is possible to take on Tesla and win. CCJs for Tesla Motors Limited below. Alright, not necessarily related to FSD and its all small beer to Tesla. Date of Judgement Date Satisfied Days to Satisfy Case Ref Status Amount...

New purchase = smart. But that doesn’t mean too clever. PodPoint basically has a random 5 min time start plus a time schedule. I’m sure prob some throttling code too. Regulations: electric vehicle smart charge points Cheap you say? Electric Vehicle Home Wall Charger - 32amp 7KW - Electric...

Pretty graph: https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/insurance/car-insurance/when-to-renew/

Wishful thinking that the App allocates non- Tesla’s to a stall. “Please use stall 1A or 1B”. I can’t see it happening. Just have to wait for v4 upgrades all round.

Surely the cooling system for the computer is designed to deal with the maximum possible heat the computer can throw at it? Now if the octovalve / pump setup changed might do it. Is this the Atom screen processor overheating (or whatever they have in newer cars)?

Unimaginable that Tesla would restrict charge port unlock for company cars. My lease car is fine. You don’t need any 3rd party app nonsense for this. If you don’t have the lightning bolt icon on the App just push and hold on one of the four icons you do have and swap it out. You could also use...

It’s very strange. No flooded batteries in nearly 4 years and the two in a row. Wonder if there’s been a design change?

Independent Distribution Network Operator already exist. I think the issue is getting DNOs to pay for stuff (contestable works?). This explains a bit more: IDNO vs DNO

If you ask yourself what information was actually on the finance companies website- one picture alone didn’t induced the lease contract. It would be natural and very reasonable that you relied upon the manufacturers representations. Worth checking the PCI info you got. If you didn’t that’s a...

MSE could have been clearer on the no list. As for Black Horse: https://www.financial-ombudsman.org.uk/decision/DRN-4188284.pdf

My first Tesla was Black Horse HP- the Tesla system and Blackhorse were reasonably integrated. Does anyone know if Tesla\Blackhorse had a discretionary commission arrangement in place? https://www.moneysavingexpert.com/reclaim/reclaim-car-finance/

That post reads as shameless thread bumping. Very honourable. Good to know that anyone mis-sold FSD in the UK will easily find this thread to get advice on asking for a refund.
