It was announced as a press release, rather than just starting to appear like many upgrades do. So that means it could be ages. I'll start thinking about it once the first one appears on, for example, Teslafi. Nothing yet.

Sounds like you are already doing a good job of aero efficiency. A 5% to 10% reduction efficiency is low for towing anything. For reference, towing a boxy trailer gives a far bigger hit: He also finds that the weight of the trailer load has little effect, so the hit comes from aerodynamics.

By 'it' do you mean the Expensive Vehicle Supplementary Tax? I can't find anything to say that newer vehicles registered since 1st April 2021 will need to pay this. Just the standard rate Vehicle Excise duty. .gov.uk: Introduction of Vehicle Excise Duty for zero emission cars, vans and...

Just to build on your original post, the driving reason to donate to prostate cancer research is to fund development of a better test, to replace the PSA test, so that both false positives and false negatives can be dramatically reduced. Not just to prevent cancer, but to avoid people having...

My impression is that PSA tests can be a good thing (I had one every year for a while) but need to be treated with some care. It sounds as though they lead to false positives and you need to know the best way to proceed if you get a positive test. There was a BBC Inside Health programme on the...

First installs appearing on Teslafi. Almost all in mainland Europe. None in the UK.

It won't come in the next 6 days. There isn't a single install yet on TeslaFi. I only start to think I might get an update once 10's of percent of cars have had it. It can take weeks.

Well, I finally remembered. We left the shades on throughout a two week trip through Spain and Portugal. I didn't try to do any tests by removing them to check for any differences, However, my impression is that having them fitted delayed the rate at which the cabin heated up after we parked...

It sounds like it's time to write and reject the car. I believe you have six months to do so, and that is running out. That should get some attention. Rejecting a car – your consumer rights | The Car Expert

Currently, the indicators don't even cancel after you've indicated to leave a roundabout. It would be a good first step to link to nav to do this.

When my Model 3 is being serviced at a third party or at a bodywork shop I'd like to be able to select a mode that is very similar to Valet mode (preventing, for example, adding new keys) but allowing the frunk to be opened and Service Mode to be accessed (both of which are prevented by Valet...

Read the roadside assistance policy. It doesn't cover much and I don't rely on it. Currently using Green Flag for 2 EVs (one with continental cover) for less than £100 per year.

We have the tow bar on our M3 and use an Atera Strada Sport 2-bike carrier (15kg). We carry a couple of light touring bikes (say 15 kg each with racks) so keep within the 55kg limit. No problems using them and just keep a small mat to kneel on to see what I'm doing. Besides the weight limit...

But Electroverse shows an extensive network of available chargers in Norway and all the other countries on the route. Shell Recharge looks to have fewer in Norway, but still a reasonable number on the main routes. Is there a problem using either?

I stumbled across this some time ago: Model 3 Inverter Power Connection I just noted its reference to the DC connection under the rear seat for if I ever needed one. I've not checked it out for technical correctness. Might be a starting point. I assume that you're just wanting '12V', and the...
