I'm having the same problem. It's so frustrating. I have a replacement light bar but no way to install it!

Small bump on this one. Does anyone know of anyone in the UK offering battery repair services? Cleevely have now stopped even leaf battery swaps by the looks of it. Or even battery preventative maintenance? I just saw a company in Finland was charging about 650€ to drop the pack, clean all the...

Thank you for the replies, I suspected as much. I guess I'll just have to live with it :(

Had anyone had their third brake light replaced? On my 14 plate p85+ mine had failed miserably (about 50% of LEDs out). I have a new led board, however the light appears to be wedged between the rear screen and the metal of the tailgate. Is it possible for a DIY replacement? Falling that is it...

Yes, I took it to Cleevely when I got it to give it a once over, they seem like good guys. I've watched a bit of their stuff on YouTube too... Fingers crossed they have a Tesla battery fix in the works just in case anything happens!

Thanks for all the replies, some good info. Apologies for lack of info... I have a 2014 P85+ with the 8 year warranty end on the horizon so was just trying to think forward. That's a bit naughty of Tesla do keep the battery, in theory we've paid for the new one, I'm fairly sure selling the...

Ok, thanks for the advice!! I have been reading about batterygate with the various software versions. Could it be that if it was running an older version of the software then this could result in it showing a lower value?

Thanks the reply by the way!

That's what I was thinking. I've just gone back to him to ensure when it was 'full charge' he hadn't set the charge limit to less than 100% inadvertantly. Otherwise I've read that sometimes of the battery hasn't been fully drained the BMS can get confused and report an incorrect amount of...

Good evening all, Firstly hi, I'm new here, hopefully will be starting around of I can find a suitable car :) I was hoping I could ask some advice at all... I've just been to view a jan 2015 85 with 40000 miles. When I queried around the range at full charge I was told it was 210 which looked...
