    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    I just went through this EV 'special' tariff thing with E.On....must admit I didn't research it at all....just read the headlines without the small print.....midnight to 07:00 at 6p per kwh....great I thought....what I didn't figure was the big jump in the day time tariff rate over my previous...

    Model S (2019) vs Model 3 (2021)

    I did watch one of Richard's videos where he had stopped to charge and met two S owners, one had 300K the other 400K on them!..the cars looked great and were used for chauffeuring duties.

    Model S (2019) vs Model 3 (2021)

    Loving my 2021 3LR, 30K mileage from Cinch for £26K Popped proper tyres on the 18" wheels and find the ride absolutely fine and I came from an E class Benz. So I'd say go 3.

    Pedestrian Warning System (PWS) Retrofit

    Prior to buying an EV it always annoyed me they didn't make some noise at low speeds where walking pedestrian's may roam unawares. My 2021 3 plays a space craft type noise in reverse but not going fwd. Tesla manual says: "The Pedestrian Warning System causes Model 3 to emit sound when driving...

    Regular maintenance

    Took ownership of my 3LR a month ago, there is no evidence as to what has been done by the previous 1 owner since new 2021...so just for my peace of mind got a local Tesla service centre (Gatwick) to do the brakes/air filter while it was in having the steering wheel and charging port replaced...

    Has My Tesla Had A Service?

    OK great stuff from Tesla, have the car booked in for a service to get the steering wheel replaced as this one has some what feels like bubbles at 3 o'clock where the leather seems to have worked loose from the wheel, better get that replaced while still in warranty! Also the "charge port latch...

    Has My Tesla Had A Service?

    The Apps service history from previous owner goes when you transfer ownership it seems. on the basis of safer is better than regret, I will get it booked into Tesla for the brake fluid, calliper and air filter.

    Has My Tesla Had A Service?

    Just settling into my LR and really enjoying it, though it arrived filthy via Cinch and the child who delivered it couldn't wait to go, currently being given a massive detail by a local company I have used before. The car has no service records of any work having been undertaken, is there any...

    USB Device and music not showing on Refreshed MS LR

    Great! thanks for that...so would that micro sd come ready formatted for mp3 music or is any formatting/partitioning required?...this will be using one of the usbc slots in the centre console for music only. I did this afternoon find a 128gb usbc drive and popped it in, the system showed it as...

    Adding 2nd Hand Tesla To App?

    Just had my M3LR delivered by Cinch today. It has the two key cards but how do I add it to my Tesla app on my phone? I understand that in a private sale the previous owner 'transfers' ownership. Have had no instruction from the Cinch and the child that delivered the car just wanted to leave.

    2024 Insurance Costs

    LOL!...I haven't got the hang of the acronyms yet!...its a long range 3 and yes I am reasonably happy with the insurance quote, have read some horror stories from some folk with their premiums, depends on many factors I guess including of course the area you live.
