    "Trailer Mode ON" when driving in deep water/heavy rain!?

    Ive just repaired my M3 with trailer connector. It was full of water from rains. Causing the trailer symbol to appear, rapid indicator flash on the display. I was able to repair it from underneath, completely stripping down the connector, drying it out and where the wire plug into the front...

    Leaving Tow Hitch cover off - any concerns about water getting in there?

    Model 3 LR 2019 Well I've had random trailer connected symbol when it wasn't. Switching on the main lights would make the trailer symbol clear. The indicator would flash rapidly, but all indicators worked fine. The trailer socket was filled with water from the rear. You need to unbolt the...

    Hotspot instead of Tesla connectivity

    I find Tesla to be penny pinching with this premium connection pricing whilst they allow tethering whilst on the move. Why dont they just allow all features as long as its not costing them data charges. I dont like that my £80k Model S has a basic feature of traffic congestion removed.

    Anyone for the Ioniq 5?

    We use our EVs to their ability. Our Nissan Leaf is used for 100 mile or less journeys. It has 50,000 miles from 3 years use. Had Covid not interfered with movement our Nissan would be around 75-80k miles now Our Tesla is on 13K from 2 years

    Tesla model 3 slides on sloppy roads in parked position in London snow?

    It has got foook all to do with the car. Any car will slide if parked on snow on a steep gradient. Why didn't you clear the snow from under wheels or chock securely?

    What would/will you pay for heated steering wheel?

    Its nice having the feature on my MS and Leaf, but it is not essential. I wouldn't be swayed not to buy a car by not having heated steering

    Heating - air con vs fan

    The way to stop mould is to switch off rhe aircon 10 mins before your journey ends. This dries the condenser inside the car and prevents bacteria growing

    Tesla offers 1 year free supercharging if you buy before Dec 31st 2020

    Its about 1% of the vehicles value. Its probably more like 0.5% because Tesla will be marking up the electric. Ive got free lifetime for my MS. Its a perk but not amazing value
