    why my ext4 formatted USB drives were not mounted and playable in my M3?

    No - I have no hiccups on the music playback. This model SSD should be plenty fast enough to cope with the work being thrown at it. My only outstanding issue is that a couple of tracks refuse to play but I suspect they are either a format that is not acceptable or maybe corrupt in some way. I'll...

    Unstable connection with my iPhone via Bluetooth

    M3 Highland - 2023.44.30.9 - Android Pixel 6a I have the same (or close to) problem. Phone works perfectly as a phone key but every time I get in the car, I have to go to Bluetooth and tap 'connect' to get the car-phone BT connection going. No BT handshake process required. Just a bit...

    why my ext4 formatted USB drives were not mounted and playable in my M3?

    Thank you all of you who have posted advice on this. I finally managed to make it work after days and days of puzzling and trials.

    Does Checking on the car in the Tesla App drain the battery?

    Not for me. The app always starts on the hardware that was last viewed. Just checked again after restarting my phone (Android) and it still starts the app in PW screen after it was last closed in PW screen. So I guess my final question is - if the app is not viewing the car screen, has it...

    Does Checking on the car in the Tesla App drain the battery?

    Marine Traffic ( iOS) and Marine Radar (Android) apps both wanted to charge premium rates for access to the satellite reported AIS data. I'll go look for your app. Thanks for the tip.

    I still have the Bristol based registration plate though so this may be an opportunist change for the new centre opening up. I have not been offered a home delivery but there will be complimentary refreshments 👍🙂

    I have just received a pickup appointment at the new Exeter store for 27th @ 3pm. In this case it might be related to publicizing the new store. My previous delivery centre was Bristol so this is way better for me down in sunny Devon. Happy 🥳 M3H LR Red Black 18" Photon

    Marine traffic apps charge for the satellite AIS position when the vessel is way out in the ocean. Once it gets back in radio range of a shore station then we get to see the AIS location info for free again.
