    Run-away I-PACE, really?

    MYLR one tyre replaced

    I guess I am paying a monthly lease fee which includes tyres, so I am paying for it and probably paying handsomely for it. So I'd want to get my money's worth, if the manufacturer says it's needed then it should be done, as they are only potentially damaging their own vehicle and making it...

    MYLR one tyre replaced

    We had a large bolt puncture the rear passenger tyre, this has been replaced by vwfs as it's a maintained car today. On our previous m3LR(different lease company) when this happened they replaced both rear tyres. So now one new tyre is 8mm and the old tyre is 5/6mm across the rear. They are the...

    Checklist for travel in France - advice appreciated

    As I got on to Le Shuttle on Saturday, guy (Guard??) asked me not to do any software updates on the train, as supposedly some idiot had done one recently and blocked the train for 2 hours!

    ev.energy app + Octopus Agile = Win :)

    I asked for the change earlier today because when comparing from Oct 2023 onwards, I could have saved £500. Although charging is currently costlier, this additional expense is balanced out throughout the day. Every month, according to this app, there hasn't been a single instance where Agile...

    Bonnet keeps opening on its own

    What @Jason71 said. This is likely to be the cause. We had this on our model 3 a couple of years ago and it was resolved once we stopped sharing login credentials.

    ev.energy app + Octopus Agile = Win :)

    Looking at moving to agile from intelligent. Anything still using the ev.energy app, is it working as it should. I've got a hypervolt charger so not directly compatible.

    So I decided to get a Tow Hitch...

    We have a tow hitch on the M3 and I was getting worried about getting one fitted to the Y (after "purchase (lease)") but it looks like you can now configure the Y with a hitch and it is cheap than the £1500 it used to be!

    towing electrics 13pin to 7

    When you use an adapter with the model three it does stick out quite low! Which I manage to snap off (Luckily the adaptor only broke!!) going across a rutted car park. That 7-13pin adapter extension looks perfect, didn't even know that existed. I was contemplating doing to rewiring on the thule...

    Phantom braking getting some unwanted attention (at last!)

    Also a Volvo driver before the M3. While in the Volvo I always covered the brake just in case, in the M3 I always cover the accelerator just in case!!

    [UK] 2021.44.30

    I've had this the last week and thought it was just the road. Particularly a couple of days ago pulling out of a junction, turning right across a carriageway and a left turn lane. I couldn't figure out if it was power or regen at the time. Did more sideways a bit at the rear!

    Yeah not impressed with the latest version; As above how do you change map view? How do you trigger dashcam recording """without"" (edit) pressing the horn?

    Mk3 wall charger in stock

    Yes I tried on Friday but as I'm on a lease I can't purchase via the web. Phoned customer service and they said two options. 1. Speak to my lease company to order one! Ha 2. Talk to a service centre - So phoned my local and had no response. Tried again and managed to get the parts team in...

    Crazy high residuals

    Yes. You could as some lease companies do off you the chance to purchase at the end of the term, as long as this was a good price you could then sell for profit.

    What did you do to your Tesla Model 3 today?

    Test fitted a 14kg Thule Easybase ready for some UK camping this summer. Allows me 41kg of carrying capacity, which should be just enough for the tent!! Not sure where the chairs, table, cooking equipment, sleeping bags, mats etc, etc, etc, etc are going. We try to go light but it just never...

    Replacement parts on lease vehicles

    Sorry but this is incorrect. You don't need to notify them if you have a puncture or replace with winter tyres or they are worn. You do need to check your contract as some do specify brands or premium tyres depending on the lease company. So worth check as you may buy cheap now but end up with...

    Tesla Spotify account login failure.

    Thank you to the person who suggested the fix. We had premium Spotify so logged in on the Tesla. We cancelled Spotify and couldn't get it to switch back to the free Tesla Spotify account. So I signed up with another account for the 3 months free Spotify, logged in on the Tesla and then logged...

    Tesla All Weather Protection Kit [mudflaps/ppf] - Anyone in the UK Been Contacted?

    I fitted the full extensions, after a little drive on smooth tarmac I can confirm that the extensions are a mistake. They basically drag on the floor when going around a slightly off flat corner! Probably leave them for now, but I'll be trimming or removing the extensions after winter, if any...

I'm on 3-pin plug, so I'm trying to do just a little each day, but it keeps on charging after 4:30am. I've...

    Email from octopus yesterday, saying they are putting my direct debit up £26 a month. So I've complained again, saying a proportion of this week will be because I'm still on the tracker tariff, as you haven't sorted out my meter, so I can't charge cheaply at night! I reduced the increase to...
