    Tesla service & maintenance: the biggest difference with legacy car makers?

    Admin question: why has my post been moved to the Canada subforum? I am not in Canada, and it’s not about a Canadian service centre. Image of the Canadian service centre was added by admin, not by myself.

    Tesla service & maintenance: the biggest difference with legacy car makers?

    Nope, based in the UK. Admin added the image. "Admin note: Image added for Blog Feed thumbnail" I am assuming because typically the Googles of this world like an image for content search:

    Tesla service & maintenance: the biggest difference with legacy car makers?

    Had an appointment at the Tesla Service Centre in Nottingham today to replace a faulty tyre pressure sensors in my 2021 M3. In all the ways that Tesla tries to be different - some of which are more successful than others - it made me come to the conclusion this may be one of the best. Booking a...

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    Wipers definitely gotten worse a few updates ago. Same stretch of road I have driven on dozens of times in different time of day, bone dry weather, and wipers will come on. Clean windscreen glass, no shade from trees, still wiping every couple of minutes on some days. Never done this before.

    Tesla Model Y - have I made a huge mistake

    I can confirm that my M3 (Dec 2021) warned me about significantly reduced tyre pressure whilst sat on our drive. I expected I had a slow puncture, so put some air in the tyre at the end of the afternoon after coming home from work. The (digital) tyre inflator confirmed the pressure was back to...

    Luton Tesla Superchargers open for business

    Visited Luton superchargers yesterday for the first time. Not the easiest to get to or leave … Followed the satnav, which recommended this stop to charge. First it tried routing me into the McDonalds car park next door, then tried via the drive through (both ways are not recommended…) Finally...

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    In my experience you can't cancel preconditioning, apart from cancelling the route to the charger. I've tried pressing on the preconditioning message, but that just removes the message, it doesn't cancel preconditioning (I can still hear the fans going).

    So… Highland is out…

    Wow, I thought this was a thread about highland, but last 3 pages is just petty arguments about dark mode. Are we all ok?

    So… Highland is out…

    The Tesla has a whopping big battery pack, that’s why it’s so bloody heavy…

    So… Highland is out…

    You can order it now in China as well in Australia for Jan-March delivery. And they’re made in the same Chinese factory as UK version I believe… Not sure who is in charge of UK Tesla imports, but they’re doing a sh*t job 😁

    So… Highland is out…

    Only (noticeable?) difference between SR and LR according to the Dutch configurator is the number of speakers: 9 in the SR and 17 in the LR plus two subwoofers and two amplifiers. Both versions seem to have ambient lighting, ventilated seats and the rear screen. Also no more fog lights in the...

    PCP

    I’m on my sixth car now on PCP, and only returned the car to the finance company once. This was a Voluntary Termination (VT) which was cheaper then part exchanging it because I went well over my allowed mileage. Financing was with BMW, and they sent out a specialist (BCA) to my house to check...
