    Superchargers being increased in Scotland

    I just passed the Glasgow Service Centre and the area where the Superchargers are due to go is fenced off and a Digger is on site. Obviously still some way off but at least work has begun.

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    Larkhall is badly needed as the Dakota is chocka these days completely full when I was there earlier today. There are also 4 relatively new V4's at Bathgate which is just along the road and were empty today.

    Collision with a Deer on motorway. HELP

    I had exactly the same collision with a Deer over a year ago and am also insured by Direct Line. In my case they decided it was a No Fault Claim since I did nothing wrong so I would definitely challenge their decision. Can't comment on the Repairer but Tesla Parts tend to have a long lead...

    Superchargers being increased in Scotland

    I live near Glasgow SC and to date there is no sign of any Supercharger work so Q3 starting to look optimistic. The car park is rammed with literally hundreds of M3 and MY by the way.

    Recommended Tesla-approved body shops in Scotland?

    Can't comment on the Broxburn guys but Mitchell Inglis repaired the front of my M3 after a collision with a Deer and it was faultless, even I can't tell so highly recommended.

    Tesla Quality Reassurance Required?

    I had the water in Boot issue and the SC replaced the Boot Lid to resolve it, apparently it was a design issue on early cars mine was an August 2019 Model 3 SR+.

    Driver Door Unlock Mode

    Had exactly the same experience trying to open a rear passenger door for one of my Wife's Pals, now off and staying off !

    Tessie App

    Mine has a Button to 'Update Charge History' or something similar, so seems to be optional. I've found the Support to be superb so maybe give them a call ?

    Road Trip EV Journalism

    This programme was the usual mix of half truths and worst case scenarios. Driving to Scotland but not registering for Chargeplace Scotland in advance, not using Superchargers even when available etc. Home Charging costs £20 so how come it costs me £3 ?

    M3 been in bodyshop for 5+ months - both batteries dead

    Mitchell Inglis know what they're doing and did an excellent job of repairing my M3 after a collision with a deer last year. You may have a wait for parts but they will do a quality job.

    Wiring loom water ingress

    This is a well known recall which I had done on my 2019 SR+ under Warranty so it's worth challenging then in this.

    Charge Place Scotland Tariffs by Council

    There are quite a few Tesla Superchargers in Scotland which are generally pretty quite which should allow you to Roadtrip with relative ease.

    Service history for used Tesla

    Tyre rotation is not really a 'thing' in the UK, it may or may not have had the Cabin Filter changed and brake fluid checked, try giving them a call ?

    [UK] Price cuts

    I drove past Tesla Glasgow earlier and there were literally hundreds of Cars in the lot, very unusual for the start of a quarter, wonder what's going on ?
