    [UK] Spring Software Update

    There's a general fixation on the large 3d vehicle graphic being somehow the deciding factor on whether Intel cars get the update or not. I'm sure that particular function is just one of many in the software branch. There are likely many other changes in the background that the Intel processor...

    [UK] 2024.14.x

    Do they chime if the navigation voice instructions are muted? It's far too chatty for my liking, so I always have it muted.

    [UK] 2024.14.x

    Biggest undocumented change: They finally switched the "Boot Open" to "Open Boot" on the screen so it makes sense...

    Making the final payment

    As others have said, multiple payments is ok, but your bank may let you do a larger one if you ask them first. Having said that, it's always worth calling your bank & speaking to a human before making large transfers, to make sure they don't get automatically stopped by fraud protection systems.

    What were you driving at the start of the '10s.....

    Wasn't sure I'd see any Skoda on here. Mine were: Skoda Fabia vRS diesel (2005-2012) - 100% reliable, never a single issue Skoda Octavia vRS diesel (2012-2020) - Also 100% reliable VW eGolf (2020-2021) - Traded in for the ID3 when VW were giving them away due to Dieselgate VW ID3 (2021-2022) -...

    Roadside assistance without warranty

    I would suggest getting regular third party roadside assistance. Even on a brand new car the Tesla assistance is patchy at best. Anything outside business hours it's apparently worthless, from posts I've seen on here. I think my Green Flag cover is somewhere in the region of £40 per year &...

    UK Pricing piss take

    It's very difficult to find specific data points to compare directly but most corporate occupations in the US earn significantly more in the US than here. As others have said, that is generally the target market for above-average priced cars. I can lift & shift my position to one of my company's...

    Home charging

    My M3 has only done 11,000 miles in just over 2 years due to working at home permanently but I wouldn't think twice about installing a home charger at that price, to be honest. The convenience alone is justification enough IMO. After having EVs for around 5 years I can honestly say not needing...

    Tesla Financial Services UK - Ghost-ship?

    You should have the V5C if the car is registered to you. If you've misplaced it, you can request a replacement directly from the DVLA. Edit: Never mind. Someone else mentioned PCP & I didn't notice you had said PCH in your original post.

    Software updates

    This is definitely a new problem for cars, which didn't exist before Tesla. There's always going to be FOMO if the base model of a vehicle is updated over time with new internal technology hardware. There will come a time that some updates to the newest models just can't physically work on the...

    Changes to Supercharging?

    I think the "membership" is tied to the car when you own one but if you need to charge other EVs expect you'll need to sign up for a separate membership. The billing is obviously automatic via the car for a Tesla but for others it's not.

    Changes to Supercharging?

    For anyone who didn't get the email yet, this is all it says: The Learn More link just points to the Supercharging part of the web page but this is the relevant page: https://www.tesla.com/en_gb/support/supercharging-other-evs#supercharging-membership

    Model Y Blowing cold air but only on auto

    How long have you had the car? If you've only owned it during cold weather so far, the behaviour you describe is somewhat normal when the weather starts to warm a little. While the general temperature inside the car may be at the set point on the climate control, the adjustments the system is...

    M3H - Which software version?

    Sometimes updates get pulled/cancelled, so if you don't install it while it's offered it will just disappear from your download queue. It depends what the current release cycle is & if they need to issue bug fixes etc. It's not unusual, you'll just get the next update version. If you...

    Dashcam and collision warning

    If your USB stick/drive is working, the camera is always recording while driving. Check that you have the small red circle in the corner of the camera icon, not a red cross. The constant recording only keeps the most recent one hour of video. If you manually save a clip by either pressing the...
