If you're still under warranty then it's worth raising a service request in the app for this. It won't result in a fix directly for your car, but they do get bounced upwards. Tesla is statistic-driven more than most companies, so this is about the only way to get things fixed.

Because it's a business decision. Looking at the leaked video I don't think it could do the shiny car rendered when you're not moving with the shortcuts for bonnet / boot etc.

I don’t think you understand what I’m saying. The point I’m making is that it’s possible that the autopilot visualisation is actually being rendered elsewhere and just provided to the MCU as little more than a video feed from the autopilot computers (which are completely separate and independent...

Doesn't this support my argument? I notice that when the map is lagging, the autopilot visualisation isn't, which implies that it's being rendered elsewhere.

Assuming the 3D model is being rendered by the Intel GPU anyway. I can imagine the high resolution stationary version rendered on the iGPU, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if the autopilot visualisation is being rendered by the autopilot computers and just piped down to the display.

But largely pointless if you have to pay £5 to access Supercharger sites, which is where things are trending thanks to their policy of putting them in hotel car parks.

Enforcing the 70mph limit on motorways would also go a long way towards reducing both carbon emissions and air pollution, as would banning cars and diesel trains from idling when stationary. Turning off the start/stop functionality in an ICE car should result in an automatic increase to the VED.

Not especially, but I do care about providers taking the piss, which is happening with the big three (and possibly Tesla as well, as their prices used to rise and fall with wholesale costs but have been static/increasing for a year).

My Model 3 does this. I think the temperature sensor is somewhere caught by the sun, because it only freezes me on a sunny day.

What do Hypervolt say?

The lease is up on my Model 3 in September and I'm planning to just buy a used model outright given that the lease costs massively outweigh any salary sacrifice saving (assuming the insurance isn't £20,000/year). In the price bracket I'm looking at I can have a 2022 Model 3 LR, or a 2019...

Are you absolutely sure it was a 100A fuse, and not just the fuse carrier, which often states 100A on it? You can overload an 80A fuse for a considerable period before it blows. They’re there to protect against direct shorts and long-term overload. For example, a 60A (well, they’re 63A now)...

Same here. I thought I just picked a dodgy one.

Yeah, now over £1,400 gross for a LR with enhanced autopilot with Tusker (12,500 miles, 36 months). Even with insurance they're pretty much assuming that the car has zero value after 3 years.
