    When it gets too low for your return journey, call roadside for recovery. That should get you a loaner. And put some air in your tires.

    Multiple Faults

    I had this last month. It cleared itself overnight, but the blank rear camera came back a couple of times. Tesla replaced the camera and its wiring loom. It might have fixed it, but with something intermittent you can never tell.

    Sentry mode keeps turning off

    I've been having problems with sentry mode throwing an error (a notification on the app telling me sentry has turned off due to a sentry error) every evening. Service told me to format the drive as exfat on a computer. No errors in the last 48 hours.

    Charging habits

    You must be particularly faff averse. Takes me less than 10 seconds to plug in and probably 15 to unplug, but I do have a charger with a tethered cable. It's much less faff than buying new diesel once a week.

    Issue with Octopus Intelligent & Tesla App?

    I've not had any problems with OI and notifications, and I'm sure you've checked that the notifications are turned on in the app. They turned themselves off in an app update for me about six months ago. Took me ages to work it out.

    Advanced driving course in a M3?

    I did it last year in a M3 performance. An observer suggested I put it in chill to curb the acceleration, but it felt like it was broken. I moved the seat back half an inch instead.

    Display Goes Off When I Close The Door

    I had this issue which went away when the seat sensor was changed. Try driving with your seatbelt off (and the door shut). If the car automatically parks its likely to be the sensor. Anything else and it's software.

    Since you're new to this, the cable has slightly different plugs at each end. You can't plug the wrong one in, so if one end doesn't fit, the other one will. It's designed to be safe if you try the wrong one.
