Auto wipers will never work! The fact that they are now changing (again) the manual wiper mode to up/down on the scroll wheel or pressing the wiper button, is a sure sign that they have given up trying to get the auto wipers to actually work...

Most of my drives over the last couple of weeks have had reduced regen icon. It normally goes away when temperatures reach 15C or more. However we've had some cold nights and it will take hours for the battery temperature to increase to that level during the day. Wait a few weeks and things will...

You only need to preheat, if you want to get maximum range, when going on a long trip for example. For general, day to day, drives it doesn't really help and leads to poor efficiency.

Something else I noticed on the navigation today was a weather warning! I've not seen that before...

Mine is the same! 1,972.6 x 6.99 = £13,7.89 and they charged me £137.92 Maybe the error is in the conversion from Cubic meters to kWh, but at least they should show the correct kWh used. And in my case it would have to be 1,973.1 kWh to make the calculation correct...

You need to go into the first eaypoint and edit the start date and time there...

No, adaptive only works on high beam. I'm almost 100% sure that dipped beam remains unchanged, as from before.

It's up to you... You can push the stalk forward to change from dipped to adaptive and back again, but I think it goes back to adaptive at the start of each drive. Personally, I prefer to see pedestrians or cyclists on the side of the road, so I will use adaptive where ever possible, however if...

You have to login via the browser to Tesla website and then you can enable it there... But setup a authentication app on your phone first to manage logins... Having said that I don't think 2FA is your problem.

When I refer to multi-factor authentication, it on the Tesla login and not the Octopus login. What browser are you using? I'm using the Chrome browser as the default browser.

I use multi-factor authentication and just followed the Octopus procedure without problems (Android). It did take nearly 15 minutes to check the connection works though...

I'm following a SR+ on TeslaFi (Flinchy) that is the same age as my car, but has travelled 167,000 miles. His degradation is -5.58% and my car at 25,600 miles is also at -5.58% That basically tells me that it's not loosing range due to cyclic aging or lots of supercharging but is loosing range...

I'm just wondering where do Tesla get these used HV batteries from? Are faulty batteries shipped back to a repair facility in Europe, USA or China? If so, their quantity control doesn't seem very good if they have such a high failure rate...

Hi @Roger61 I think your car may of had a 310 mile range at 100% when new, making the degradation more like 10%... Anyway, I'll have to give the Tesla battery health test a try out, when I have some spare time and see how it compares with SmT or using the consumption graph calculation...

I've just returned after a 500 mile road trip to and around Cornwall and according to TeslaFi my data connectivity was 100%, except on a couple of drives when it dipped to around 95%, but given all the hills, etc. in Cornwall, I think my connectivity is as good as it gets. Overall, by miles...
