    Highland m3lr with Intelligent Octopus

    I was an original user. I had Kona EV before and used ev energy and Octopus Go. My first Tesla was an original application and I was presented with the usual questions. No problems there. When you have a Tesla on your account you don't get these options and you go round in circles. I am not a...

    Highland m3lr with Intelligent Octopus

    Yes and they said they were forwarding to technic dept. who then sent me an email telling me that the problem lay with my smart meter.

    Highland m3lr with Intelligent Octopus

    I don't think it is bleeding obvious. I have teslafi and realised I had to change API. No problem. Octopus has no such facility. They use your Tesla password and it is assumed as your car is still a model 3lr it will still work. When I phoned help they had no idea and said it should work. I...

    Highland m3lr with Intelligent Octopus

    I had 2020 Tesla m3lr from new and used Intelligent Octopus without any problems. Got new car (m3lr Highland) and car would not charge overnight or on bump charge. I phoned Octopus and explained then got an email explaining how to sort problem with my smart meter. That was not the problem. I...

    [UK] 2024 Order to Delivery discussion

    I had 2020 m3lr and find new car has a stiffer acceleration pedal so initially car seems slower.

    Brilliant. Was it uphill on the way back? 🤣🤣 Enjoy.

    [UK] 2024 Order to Delivery discussion

    Miles left is based on recent driving. If you have just got the car previous mileage will be cold starting. Go to dock. Repeat onto ship. Repeat off ship. Repeat onto transporter. Repeat off transporter. Your ICE would be averaging less than 10 mpg. Don't worry. Try it after a 30 mile run and...

    Android Update - Tesla App

    Another 6.0 update from Samsung. No change. 😭

    So… Highland is out…

    What an incredible hulabaloo about buttons for indicators. When I passed my test in 1965 you had to do hand signals. I'm sure I'll manage the buttons.

    [UK] 2023.2.x

    You are correct Rocko. I lost maps completely after a few miles. When I stopped I rebooted and the maps came back but disappeared again after 38 miles. Will try tomorrow.

    Free Supercharger Miles - Expiring in March

    Let's get things in proportion. 1000 free miles sounds like a good incentive if you are used to a 25mpg Merc or Porsche but if you have Octopus Go we are talking £50. 500 miles left and it's £25 less the inconvenience and cost of getting to the supercharger. I lost 500 free miles due to Covid as...

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Check my post 29th September "Octopus Go". Exact same problem. I emailed and they said no problem but when my time was up I was paying the full rate. Another email worked but watch it like a hawk as soon as your year is up. Moderator comment - post along with rest of thread merged from...

    Green number plates

    I bought new number from plates4less. On the website there was a section to fill if you want them to do the plates for you. I tried to disign the plates but there was no option for green ev flash so I phoned them. Instant reply and a "no problem". Plates have not yet arrived so I'll update if...

    How to sell my BMW before Tesla Arrives

    I went to We Buy Any Car. I thought mine was absolutely perfect after a thorough cleaning. I took it in and the guy who was very nice managed to find a couple of slight scratches that I couldn't see without stronger glasses. I could have polished them out easily but I am sure he would have found...

    Phantom Drain much reduced?

    Mine dropped to almost zero from quite worrying levels of up to 2%/day after one of the updates. I think it was about 2020.40 roughly.

    Car no longer opening with phone [Samsung Galaxy?]

    I have s10+. I got M3LR in mid August. Phone in pocket 90% won't open. Take phone out and open cover only (not switch on or fingerprint open) then car will open 100% of time. I thought that was normal.

    Tesla cancelled my delivery

    Your car should arrive in UK 10 days before delivery. Looks like your car arrived yesterday and has been damaged in transit. I think this is rare but certainly not unknown. Tesla will get back to you soon with replacement arrangements.

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Sweat off. Menen at Octopus has finally sorted it out. 5p and 14.19. BTW why should Northern Scotland be more expensive when it produces much more than its share of green electricity from wind and hydro? I don't live in Northern Scotland but fair is fair especially when they are enduring new...

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Update on Octopus Go. A while back when I got notification that my tarrif with Octopus was ending and my new rates would be in the 16 pence/unit range I was involved with multiple emails. Finally I was reassured that my Go rates would not be affected. Tarrif changed on 13th and my M3LR has just...

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Yes. My smart meter appeared to be working fine. I got notified to send gas readings. I looked at my credit and as it was going up I thought "How wonderful". Then my credit was debited for 9 months of electricity. Not so good.

    Autopark without FSD?

    I have had auto park on previous cars. I tried it out once but if you can drive at all forget it. Too slow!

    [UK] 2020.40.x

    Update. Battery would appear to have lost nothing since it was charged at 2am. Normally loses 2-3% in that time.

    [UK] 2020.40.x

    Since 2020.40.4 I think my worrying phanton drain is sorted. Seemed to have lost nothing overnight. I think I had the problem where the fan appeared to be running a long time after car stopped and someone said it was a known problem and there would be a software fix. Anyone else?

    Octopus Go - 100% price hike

    Same thing happened to me. See my thread a couple of weeks ago. Had some back and forth with Octopus and I am told it is sorted out.

    Taking people for rides

    I think you should make it clear that you are in the Isle of Man and that the rules are different. In my area posting something like this is hopefully very likely to have the police at your door. In this area we have had enough of our MPs flouting the rules on trains.

    Is anyone completely happy with their M3?

    Driving since 1965. Best car ever. I have ridden motor bikes in my youth and these are a good comparison in thrill and acceleration. Gripes: Tinny sounding boot. No hatchback. No HUD. No Android Auto but Tesla's effort is very good. Could do with better charging timers. Autopilot is irrelevant...

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    OK everyone on Octopus Go. Panic over (I hope). Emails back and forward to Octopus. It seems that although I was quoted for gas and electricity, only the gas would apply to me and electricity would continue as before. I must say that in the renewal invitation that was as clear as mud. No mention...

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Just got reply from Octopus. Seems 5p rate is still on. Hopefully something has gone wrong with my quotes for next year. I will update when I get some sort of answer.

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    According to my quotes for renewal all night time rates are in double figures. It doesn't stipulate 12.30 to 4.30. I have emailed for clarification but its cheap rate that they quoted would mean that for Go I will be gone.

    Octopus Go - renewal?

    Moderator comment - thread renamed from "Octopus Go" It looks like the good times are over. Just got my renewal notice from Octopus. It seems night rate has doubled. Has anyone had a similar email about Agile? I think I need to change. I enjoyed the lack of bother with Go but at around 10p a...

    New Tesla Owner, battery range lower than expected

    Thanks for that. Got it. Easier to do on PC. I kept trying to find it under Fleet. My range is pretty miserable too. Nobody worse.

    New Tesla Owner, battery range lower than expected

    I have TeslaFi and can't see how you get this statistic relating to the fleet. I have done a few miles less than 1000. Could that be the reason?

    Ride Quality M3LR

    I have M3LR. I have had BMW X3 and my wife has had a mini Cooper diesel with run flat tires (nothing but trouble from start to finish). If your ride is harsher than the X3 then you definitely have a problem. The mini was great for removing dental fillings.
