Thanks for the heads up, I’ve just change mine to Authorised Teslas only, having previously had it set to “ Teslas only”. Very easy to do, just clicked on the cars on the app and they were both added.

Hmmm …the AP17U looks like it’s listed at loads of places as being suitable for the passenger side so it should be ok (my pack contained 2 wipers, one drivers side and one passenger side). The screenshot attached shows the one you’ve got should be ok, but needs adapter 2aa (which means nothing...

What was the number of the blades you got? When I replaced mine on my 2018 S I bought Bosch Aerotwins A524S, which have a 26” for the drivers side and 18” for passenger side. They went straight on, I didn’t have to change adapters or anything. I got mine from Wiper Blades 4U in September last...

We stop the charge pretty well straight away - plug in, go indoors then stop the charge. We always get an IO schedule come through, not immediately, but normally within 30 mins ( can’t remember exactly how long we’ve had to wait but I doubt it’s been over half an hour). I’ve never toggled the...

We are on Octopus Intelligent and our PW will charge up at the same time as the car. The only thing we have found is that when the car is using IO cheap rate outside the core 23.30 to 05.30 timeframe the PW doesn’t recognise this and so contributes to the car charging. The car tends to draw...

Based on no information whatsoever, I think that at some point all ICE will have higher VED than BEVs. It seems a bit odd that you can get an ICE with low emmisons running in a town being taxed at £20 a year, and yet a small EV (Fiat 500 for example, ideal city car) paying £165. Either that or...

It’s an interesting question.. I was a confirmed petrolhead for years and very much enjoyed running some reasonably high performance cars (911’s, V8 Astons etc) but I would not have bought any of them second hand because you don’t know what the previous owner had done/how they’d been driven...

If you’re looking into this, you might have already come across this video by RSEV As a dealer the guy buys M3s on a weekly basis and knows his stuff. Can‘t comment with certainty on whether an SR could do 130 mile round trip in winter but I’d be pretty confident it could. It’s about half...

Maybe worth talking to the guys at RSEV - this one might be older than you’re after but they always have cars coming in..they will probably take yours in PX too 🤔 https://www.rsymons.co.uk/used/cars/tesla/model-s/perfomance-ludicrous-one-owner-raven-sub-zero-hi-fidelity-panoramic-roof-120

WANTED Has anyone got a rear parcel shelf, black, for a December 2018 Model S that they want to sell? I only really need the left hand side bracket that locates the shelf on the runners, its missing from my newly acquired car. So if you've got just the bracket that would be ideal. Please PM...

Thanks @init6 . I persevered and using laptop (not iPad) I was able to find the service information, albeit I've not worked out how to download it (no biggie, it works well being able to click on the screen and getting the appropriate part of the guide on screen). Next step is going to be brave...

Bit of a thread resurrection here…. by any chance did anyone download the manual for a Model S (2018) when these were free? And would be prepared to share with me? Looking today it’s gone back to paid subscription only. I‘ve recently got a Model S and the centre console lid doesn’t close...

odd - I changed it on the app successfully a couple of days ago, before I actually got the 15p rate (but had received the e mail). however I have noticed that during the day, all solar is going to running the house and the remainder is being exported, although the battery is sitting at 56% ...

the removal of the stalks is a brave move and I’m sure will alienate a number of drivers. But it really would need a “try before you buy”. personally I don’t have a problem with the button being where it is. why? Because I spend literally hours on my driving sim playing Eurotruck Simulator 2...

Interestingly I’m in a similar boat to the OP re potential purchase of a Model S. I.e a 2016-2019 (so post nose cone) OR a similarly priced Model 3. the current model Y will be staying (really it’s SWMBOs car), so this is to replace my ICE that I’ve just sold. as part of my research I came...
