    Model Y Tyres, difference between Tesla rated and standard?

    I need two new rears on my 19” Y. Hankook Ventus s1 Evo 3 is £215 each Mercedes fit and £285 Tesla. Really worth the extra £70 for some sound deadening? I think their is a gap in YouTube for someone to dissect these different tyres and work out the actual differences! Would they fit a...

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Thanks for your help. What do you mean by read the octopus every half hour to disable PW discharge? Do you mean set up a script to do this? Is there a setting to stop the PW discharging? I cant find a setting to stop PW discharge.

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Just installed a powerwall. I charge the car with IO. Problem is if octopus sets a charge after 5.30(end of cheap rate set for powerwall) then it drains the powerwall to charge the car rather then take from the grid. Any way to get round this otherwise I am going to end up with a lot of cycling...

    Smart FIT Payments

    Just recieved a message that my fit payments will move to being SMART rather then assumed 50%. Perfectly unlucky timing for me as I am just about to have a battery installed! I am sure I exported >50% historically but will be <50% going forward with the battery...

    Octopus tracker tripled

    My wife asked to be put on the tracker last week and was told there is a 6 month wait list as they are only swapping 50 people a day. Anyone else been told this/ been able to switch in the last few days?

    Powerwall - Availability and Pricing

    I just heard from one supplier that Tesla has just reduced the price of the powerwall by £2.5k. Can anyone confirm if that is correct?

    Other Home Battery Options? (PW alternative)

    Many thanks for the advice. They look like a good option. If anyone happens to know a good installer on the south coast. (Brighton/Worthing area) please let m know.

    Other Home Battery Options? (PW alternative)

    I have been waiting ~9m for a PW and still no sign. Just wondered if there are any recommendations for alternatives that are more readily available. My main aim is to capture solar and charge with cheap off peak rates. Not too fussed about off grid operation in a power cut. I know this has...

    Model Y Mud Flap Clips

    Hopefully a very simple question. What clips do I need for Model Y mud flaps (the standard ones behind front wheel)? I managed to pull one mud flap off on a curb at the weekend. It looks fine apart from the clips broke. Tesla specific or if generic a link to a suitable part would be amazing.

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Thanks. Do you think it would work if I set the zappi to boost for the time period of IO and leave it in eco+ at other times?

    Wiki Model Accessories Mega List / Cheat Sheet

    Sorry probably does not help those that have already ordered but I got the mats below for my Y. £146 at the time. I live in muddy countryside, with a big muddy dog and messy family. If thats you (rather then those that have amazing skills at keeping everything clean and tidy - I wish I could...

    How do you get your schedule? This is all I see. I transferred to IO yesterday and the test all worked ok. But my app screen didn’t show a schedule (and it charged last night to 85% set on car not 80% set in Octopus app)

    Octopus Energy, including Intelligent and go

    Well its Friday and they say they will be back up this week. My current Go contract ends on the 28 October (2 weeks) so keen to see what they come up with. A tweak or a change of approach?

    What the hell has happened to Autopilot?

    I love 99% of my model Y. (its my second Tesla) but the windscreen wipers are crap. No problem historically I would just turn them off when they start randomly going, but they caused me to turn to grumpiness yesterday. I drove from the south coast to the Peak district on Friday and back last...

    Thanks Warp9lecy One other question. Can you also charge up a powerwall on IO? I am in a long line waiting for a Tesla powerwall but when it arrives it would be good to do the same off peak charging.
