For sure - although the guy in the film mentioned a couple of times that it was the tyre manufacturer at fault, rather than Tesla.

Good video. I did notice that they had winter tyres on so not the e-primacy’s that the UK M3’s have been fitted with. I’m currently in KwikFit getting a tyre replaced due a bolt (!) on OSR. They didn’t have a replacement so Tusker authorised 2 new Pilot Sport 4’s so I’ll be interested to see...

TBH I don’t drive very often at 65-70. Either slow around town or 80+ on motorways. And the roads here in Herefordshire are pretty crappy (M40 not much better) so I haven’t really felt much on the way of vibrations since they did the tracking. I’m pretty sure all 4 tyres needed balancing but...

Watcha, yep - no real issues with the car now. Wheel vibrations are minimal and the dead spot has pretty much disappeared. Did they rebalance all the wheels?

BTW, found the service manuals etc for the car if it's useful to anyone.... Service and diagnostic information for independent businesses and individuals involved in the professional maintenance and repair of Tesla vehicles.

Fab info DF, thanks!

And I have to say, the change in ratio doesn't make a whole lot of difference to me in this car compared to my '72 MLR

I've not looked at what this offset does or is changed - whether it's an automatic process or what. All I know is that it had a value and now it is zero!

The first thing I did after noticing that it wasn't correctly positioning itself was to recalibrate the cameras but it made no difference. Having looked at the service menu, I notice that the steering offset has been removed. I've yet to have a look at any other options though!

Right, took the car to Solihull this morning for them to rebalance the wheels and sort out this vagueness in the steering. I also mentioned that the car on AP on the motorway doesn't sit in the middle of the lane but to the LHS.... I took one of their Highlands out for a quick test drive to see...

I shall book the car in & Tesla can check it over but I'll (try to) insist on a full alignment check....

Oh, I'm surprised to hear that. The old car I had to keep pulling the stalk down to get it to go but perhaps it's an increase in processing speed or something? I can literally put in my pin2drive, swipe and I'm off!

Exactly!

Thankfully it could be worse!!

Thanks DF - unfortunately I'm in Herefordshire! Will look at the EPAS check too...

Had my M3H for a month now after a '72 MLR. Love the cooled seats & swipe to drive (much faster than the old 'gear shift'. No issues with the lack of stalks for indicating - got used to the buttons pretty quickly. But... apart from slightly dodgy wheel balancing which needs to be sorted, I'm...

Ended up charging here yesterday and there is now indeed a £5 fee to park / charge for up to an hour. You get a ticket on entry & you pay at the barrier on exit with contactless. Fewer taxis / non Teslas there now…..

Did you find out why the PS stopped working in the end?

Unfortunately not on the small media player display below the car graphic!

Is it just me or does everyone else have the bug/feature whereby if you select a favourite radio station, it disappears from the favourites list? Then, if you select another, the original has gone for good?

Well I’ve just been to the front desk and the chap there gave me a free card to exit the car park. I asked about the new charging scheme and he said there’s something coming soon. Went back to car and a workman was removing the small white signs between the chargers saying 1hr free…..

Yep, thanks Fursty. Unfortunately I need a good 20% - 90% charge so the T5 Hilton ones I’d also have to pay extra for. I’ve had to queue for the Renaissance Hotel chargers before - perhaps if they do start charging £5 just to charge I’ll not have to queue!! I’ll see tomorrow morning if they...

Just put in the T3/4 Spercharger for my trip tomorrow and the car is showing a £5 charge to park for 2hrs and charge! Anyone know if this is true? The last time I was there the barriers were bust and stuck up (And the chargers were full on non Tesla’s but that a different matter 🤬)

Aah, like a muppet I forgot about the interest rates! Yes, it includes insurance too so that doesn't help. Thanks for the replies 👍

I've got a 2yr old M3 via the company Tusker scheme (on a 24 month lease) which is up for renewal. They have just got the 2024 'Highland' model on their website and for exactly the same duration / mileage colour / spec (LR AWD, Black/Black, 18" std wheels, no extras) works out at £3984 extra...

For info - if anyone is a Tusker lease customer then having just spoken to them, you’re unable to order the new model until they’ve received the Tesla info for it and updated their website. No time on this and apparently any Tesla orders will not be transferred to the Tusker order system (as...

I thought the grey was now free?

Which branch is that please?

Not used these - do they get busy? Last time I looked they weren't connected to the internet so you couldn't see how many were occupied?

I use the T5 SuC pretty much every week and I get my ticket validated about 28/29 mins after I arrive (so as not to incuur their wrath!) and then you've got 15mins to exit the carpark so I unplug with 3 mins to go. Get's me from 25% to 90+% unless one of the chargers is a bit dodgy (the 1st V3...

I've not heard of anyRHD new S's or X's? Have there even been any rumours about when they may be in production?

Perhaps tooling is down for Right Hand Drive versions....

Doh!

Anyone know if there are any RHD MS's around yet?

TBH I just ignored him

Still have MP3's & radio stations all mixed up on 2022.40 :mad:

Anyone know if you can separate Favourites and Recents in the media player? I get frustrated listening to some MP3's then try to find my favourite DAB station and the horizontal list is populated with the stuff I've just listened to - no radio stations until you swipe left and they are...

Looks like the LHD has been spotted in the NL: EU finalize and deliveries

Does anyone know if there are any RHD model S's out in the real world yet?

Do you think that only happened with 36.2? I might not update then 😂

I was there Sunday, used a V3 and got charged 34p. Perhaps Tesla have upped the price & the data is yet to be broadcast to all cars?

The car says 34p but I’ve heard someone being charged 66p per kWh (Tesla M3). Is this dynamic pricing in action or a doubling of price?

FWIW, When I got back to LHR there was a software update waiting for me. Unfortunately I couldn’t get my phone to both pair with the M3 and download the update. Anyway, went back to the T5 supercharger and tried the 1st one on the RHS as you go in and thankfully 🙏 it started to charge fine. who...

For sure 👍

Thanks - a good idea to try the WD ones 👍 Although if the T5 ones still don’t work I’ll probably try and see how far up the M40 I can get as it’s nearer home!!

I tried 4 of the V3 ones on the right as you drive in and 3 of the ones on the left! I did have a quick look / blow down the socket & couldn’t see anything amiss. 🤷‍♂️

Not yet - I’ve been on the phone to Tesla but they don’t ‘see’ any problems with either the car or the superchargers but apparently need about 10mins of ‘troubleshooting’ when I get back to the UK…..

That’s interesting - although there were plenty of others charging fine. Yes, I’ll have to resort to getting it trailered back home if I can’t charge it 😩

They were - I tried 2 superchargers after the previous occupants left & they confirmed all was working fine. The charge port lights - good question! I think it went from the white (port door open) to blue. It certainly didn’t go red or start flashing green 🤷‍♂️
