    Dashcam - help me understand its use

    The dashcam only keeps about 10 minutes of footage whilst driving. It does not continuously record the entire journey and commit to memory like you want it too. When you witnessed the event you wanted to store into USB memory, you should have told it to store it by pressing the dashcam button...

    Premium Connectivity - is it worth it?

    In my case, premium connectivity is not worth it. I don't need a satellite view and already have my own family Spotify subscription. I believe the route planner does take into account live traffic information, I just can't see it. For example, saw a build-up of traffic at M1 by Meadowhall...

    [UK] Anyone else considering refusing delivery by of Model Y? (USS)

    If I was in your position, personally, I would cancel/delay until more HW4 details are released or confirmed in UK cars. Even If it means missing a quarter release. If Tesla's release cycle was an anime, cars released right now with a lack of USS using HW3 is the filler arc.

    Model Y UK Delivery

    Sentry is indeed a battery drain. A few things for you to check: a) There are settings to disable sentry at Home or Work b) Do you use an Easy Entry profile? You'll need to adjust your sentry settings under that profile too as that's what it'll switch to after parking. c) Repeatedly checking...

    Flexibility in collection day?

    There may be an issue if your collection window is right at the end of the financial quarter. Delays past the quarter-end date are a no-go zone from what I've read here.

    Security of Phone/Card/Key?

    Oh yes, I've purposefully left my phone in several rooms and have still been able to walk outside and unlock the door during my investigation. In one scenario about 10m away from the kitchen if the front door is wide open. Really goes without saying. 😄

    Security of Phone/Card/Key?

    I have an issue with my phone key being able to unlock my door whilst I'm inside my house and the car is parked on the driveway. Maybe my phone broadcasts Bluetooth too strongly, the walls are too thin, or the Tesla is too sensitive but while my app says the car is locked if my phone is in the...

    Q3 collections, new owners tales and experiences

    I've had my MY for about a month now, so here's a little update. Usually, these posts are filled with complaints as this is the internet after all. But overall "Gandalf the Grey" has performed brilliantly. I use to fill up on petrol once a week, but now I charge every 3rd day on Octopus Go...

    Uk Blackouts & Octopus Go

    1. You're quoting the Daily Mail 2. Industry will be shut down before homes. Industry being a massive consumer of gas already. 3. The United Kingdom has proven reserves equivalent to 2.6 times its annual consumption. 4. Go to the Winchester, have a nice cold pint, and wait for all this to blow over

    Tesla asking for votes on SuperCharger locations [UK and Ireland]

    Exactly, Tesla only needs to look at where Teslas don't go and where there are no chargers nearby. This is a textbook case for survivorship bias. Survivorship bias - Wikipedia In my opinion, this is why Malton on the east coast is a very good suggestion.

    UK 2022 Orders to Delivery inc the shipping thread for posts with no shipping news

    It's pretty clear at this point you should buy yourself a MG4 and pay someone the £30k difference to drive you around instead.

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    Removal of the USS wouldn't be so bad if they got the birds eye 360 view working. But that means the additional cost of cameras facing the near and driver side front bumper to eliminate those blind spots. Since money is the primary driver here, I'll mark that feature request down as 'coming...
