It’s all quite confusing as Tesla have changed their warranty over the years, and the wording. When I bought my car, CPOs were being sold with a 4 year/50k warranty which started on taking delivery, and thus is a used car warranty rather than the basic car warranty. In the app it stated Oct 23...

It’s been sorted now and Tesla updated my warranty. Just for info. This is the statement used by sales rep:

Not a clue on the opt out bit. I suppose I wasn’t really challenging a New Vehicle warranty, as that includes the drive unit and battery; its more so the 4 year basic, as thats what was referenced in the loaner/demo doc. The way it was explained to me is that mis-representation had occurred in...

Yip. Pics below of what I got. Basic Vehicle Warranty is a part of the New Vehicle warranty. The Loaner/ ex demo document references the car being protected by the Basic vehicle warranty which as per the other info, is 4 years/50k. Does not reference a New Vehicle Warranty.

Sorry to resurrect but I’m currently going through the rigmaroles of sorting a warranty issue. I bought a 69plate M3 back in July 2020. It was a ex demonstrator car, 9 months old, 8k on the clock. Loaner / ex demo document indicates the car Benefitted from a Basic Vehicle Warranty at purchase...

Yer, it’s on the rear left suspension. Appears intact. It’s strange as just says not available, but, it doesn’t flag any user alerts. It’s only visible in the service mode under “service alerts”

Mine went out of a few weeks back, after a service appointment. They did also apply an update so it could have been that. However, something I noticed when in service mode, was a service alert re the ride height calibration sensor not being available and it affecting headlight levelling. I’m...

Hi all Question for Long range Tesla Model 3 owners. Got my car back from service centre yesterday. Had lots of things sorted out, one complaint of which was my headlights losing there position randomly, and thus needing realignment. I went into service mode myself and there is a flagged...

To me, this 2022.4 update seems to have decreased the regen strength used in normal driving. The car is not slowing up as quickly as it used too. Just been for first drive after the update and found it very odd.

My Car has just been in, and has got to go back and they could only book it from the 14th Feb onwards - I am not too pleased considering they were supposed to sort everything out at the visit yesterday, and one of the issues that now needs sorting, they caused - technician was replacing my tail...

I've just gone with Peugeot. £433 and based in Bedfordshire. 9 years NCB and £750 total excess. Direct Line wanted £1098 for renewal this year.

As an update. Tesla MK have come back to me and advised that during the time my car got hit, certain parts of my car had gone into a deep sleep mode, which prevented Sentry from working as it should. This is apparently a known issue on certain cars, and senior engineers are looking into it, and...

Just had mine update as well. I too only had 2021.4...... for about 4-5 days.

So basically I need another powerwall. I’m not sure an Eddie will reap reward as in theory my main excess solar is during Summer, but I have solar thermal which gets us about 70 degree hot water everyday from may to September. I know Tesla are brining out a new charger so maybe that will have...

I will report back. Booked in today, so will see what they say.

So can you run the house off of the Powerwall and M3 battery in a blackout? Im sure I read in a recent Tesla update about the car and powerwall being able to communicate in a blackout now, or something like that. Our hot water is solar thermal + the ASHP with or without immersion of which...

Maybe only having 1 PW is where I have gone wrong then. Your setup is very similar to mine, and maybe 4 hours of off peak electricity would work if I changed charging behaviours / had a second power wall. How do you get your Solar Eddie to work with the ASHP / Solar thermal? as we were told we...

How do you have it setup to function? I’ve found that ours is much more efficient when only asked for lower flow line temps at around 25-30degrees max.

I’m going to look this up, very intrigued. I’m planning an upstairs extension to our Bungalow and plan on putting in MVHR, as it would then only require us to put towel rads in the en-suites upstairs to fully heat the place, given the ground floor slab is already heated. No match for aircon in...

We had the same choice to make. Ground source was way too much money for us and we have a huge field that it could have been run in. You say ASHP would struggle in your Bungalow - how so? We have around 186sqm of floor space and our ASHP has no issue heating it at all.

Interesting to see you got A+. We only got given a B.

Update on my situation - the other driver reported it, so I have their details now. It was at 20:07 which was within that 1 hr of no sentry activity I mentioned. I’m asking service to look into that as I find it odd it hasn’t recorded anything within that period of time, yet recorded everything...

On my Tesla plan, once my Powerwall is full, I can charge off of solar, otherwise it just gets exported! I have a 7kw solar array, 2 x electric cars, 12kw heatpump, solar thermal hot water, and 1x power wall. On average across the whole year, we are using 28Kwh per day. Low day is 8.2Kwh and...

I have noticed something a bit odd. Pretty much from 10am when I parked up, through to 7pm, events were being constantly picked up. There is then nothing until I get back to the car, which I find odd, which was at 20:47.

Basically, has recorded people walking beside and behind all day, but not when it got hit.

Yet it does - when it's actually working - trigger for people walking nearby. Yer, mine has picked all that up, but not actually getting hit by another vehicle.

I’ve just renewed our Tesla Energy plan, as our home runs off an air source heat pump for heating, so we get through 30kw a day easily in winter, and I think when I looked at the Go tariff the day rate would end up costing us more, as 14kw stores from night time charging would only cover max...

Mine are constantly going out of alignment. I just use the adjust headlights setting while parked, and it seems to go to a default setting, which I then don’t get flashed.

Slightly related Sentry has failed me today. M3 parked in town car park all day. Came back to some nasty damage to the rear bumper. Needless to say, Sentry has recorded everything but my car getting hit, which I really don’t understand and is really quite poor, considering that’s what it’s...

Got mine for £710 with Direct Line, after phoning then up.

I am 35 with 10 years NCB

Argh. Mine is due on 28th Nov. I will wait a few more days.

Just going through the motions to renew my insurance now. Last year it was £870, but now, all the quotes Im getting are over £1k, which includes DL, LV, CH etc. I have got no points, speeding or claims, so I really cannot workout, why it is so high. I have a 69 plate Long Range. I assume from...

Ive just ordered the same hub off amazon, but, I am planning on using a Samsung T5 portable SSD, which has a usb c connector

Im in a similar position. We moved to ASHP, along with Solar thermal. Like you say, in the winter, our electricity use sky rockets and we can get through around 70Kwh in one day. On most days the PW2 was being charged during E7, then being used during peak, but that gets used quite quickly. We...

At the minute I can set the battery behavior, but on the Tesla Energy Plan, I cant, from what I have read. Need to get a spreadsheet going to compare the different options - Tesla, Agile vs current etc

Im with Utilita energy on their Smart E7 tariff. They put a smart meter in and monitor every 30 mins as well. I pay 47p for the first Kwh every day, then day rate is 21p and E7 rate is 4.7 (00:30 - 07:30). In reality that is a 25p service charge and 21p day rate. Last month my bill was £20...

Direct Line wanted £1200 for my M3 LR, and Im 35 with 9+ years NCB. Churchill wanted £1031. Managed to get £730 with Quote me Happy.
