I downloaded version 4.14.1 of the app to try the drivers door unlatch feature. Very useful. But a big caution! There's no "are you sure?" prompt like there is for opening the bonnet. So I just decided to leave it off my shortcuts button row. The risk of my trouser pocket contents...

I don't think there's anything structurally different about Tesla windscreens to those on other cars. In terms of the MOT, it has this to say about glass damage: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/mot-inspection-manual-for-private-passenger-and-light-commercial-vehicles/3-visibility In particular...

Video describes the problem: I get creeking sound while turning the steering wheel while stationary, and in Drive / Reverse operation modes. It doesn't sound while in park. It doesn't sound while in motion, and it doesn't sound with brake pedal applied. My conjecture is that there's rubbing...

I got that messages as well yesterday from +44 7445921543 Today I got a followup message: "Tesla Update Correction - Your Tesla is due a compressor pipe insulation inspection. Schedule a service in the Tesla App at ts.la/app by selecting Other --> Something Else. To unsubscribe from SMS...

I suffered a crack in my windscreen following stone impact at the beginning of March. Still no replacement So I decided to do a bit of DIY first aid on my windscreen to try and and fix the crack, and at least stop it growing. Here's a video of my experience:

I did my first return trip from Aberdeenshire to West Sussex. Easy journey, but I can see trouble ahead already: The main route from Scotland to England via the M74 and M6 only contains 18 supercharger stalls over three sites between Hamilton and Preston. It's a natural bottleneck on a core...

Yes I spoke to DirectLine about winter wheels, with a specific question about aftermarket rims for winter tyres. The representative did his entry into the computer. He had a specific option in his database along the lines of "winter wheels to replace summer set". That may not be the exact...

I recently acquired my Model 3 LR in the middle of September, and thoughts now turn to getting a spare set of rims with some winter tyres on them. I live in Aberdeenshire, so these things are definitely needed most winters. The question of OEM vs aftermarket rims is one to bring up. Quite...

Silly Me! The only problem with the car exists between the drivers seat and the steering wheel! If you press and hold the wiper button, the wipers operate continuously. The manual does not describe this however. It describes a single wipe, or..... "fully press and hold the button ....... to...

I picked up my Tesla M3LR white from the Glasgow delivery centre on Monday. It was flawless. It was charging up at the destination charger, and by the time I completed my checks and drove off, it was charged upto 86%. Maybe a tiny level of dust was settled on the bodywork, but only noticable...

So I had a text today telling my that my M3LR White / Black Int was ready for delivery to be scheduled. I was given only two options. Pickup from Glasgow on the 4th or 6th September. That was no good. I had a holiday booked from 4th-11th September. So I phoned up, and after an initial...

My first post here. I'm having a great deal of trouble trying to claim the Scottish EST car charger £250 installation grant. 10 days after grant application, I had this response: This is bonkers. I've uploaded a charger quote from my chosen installer, which includes a final cost once the...
