Hi all - had my M3 LR for 2 years now and love it. Unfortunately I left it on the road overnight and someone has hit the LHS of the car. Some scrapes on the wheel arch which a body shop will t-cut out. But the electric motor (and I assume the Wi-Fi receiver) is lunched. Makes an awful noise...

Oh yeah. Put myself to shame there, didn't I? The handbrake is the one for me on my wife's X5. Driveway on an incline and it's only when I open the door that I realise I'm slowly rolling towards the garage doors.

What am I missing on the wipers for reverse thing? My right stick is my 'gearstick' which I select D, N or R (or P if I press the end button). My left stalk is for indicators with the button on the end doing a single wipe / spray. Is there some shortcut to putting wipers on that saves...

This. My assumption was that whichever phone was the one that unlocked the car would then be seen as the phone/key of the driver; and set the profile accordingly. Obviously the phone that unlocks the car (i.e. the key) has to be in very close proximity when unlocking... Won't even work if it's...

OK so it seems that the Cybex does fit after all. They should really update their compatibility chart. Thanks for all of your assistance - Happy New Year to you all.

This could be an option. Presumably the i-size base takes different size seats (i.e. newborn - 12 months & 12 months - 4 years etc)?

it's a Cybex Base Z (I Size) that doesn't fit. There are a few compatibility checkers online that also suggest this is the case so I don't think it's me being a moron. The angle of the seat means that the ISOFIX clips cannot reach the fastening points on the car seat...

Looking to hear what car seats folk here use. My wife isn't best pleased with me because she claims that I should have checked that the car seat base that fits in both her BMW and my old Macan would also fit the Tesla. Anyway; it doesn't because of the rake of the seats (means the ISOFIX clips...

OK that was easy - just push it. 24+ hours of charging time :-D

Indeed - But I need to work out how to open the charging flap. Assume I don't need to tell the car that I'm charging it?

Thanks for that. Very useful - Do you log that in the app once it appears (i.e. I can probably book it in tomorrow)?

Thanks - I'll have a look when I'm done on this call. Assume you mean the big storage bin between the seats is where the USB-C should be? If not there do I just have to accept it or will Tesla fit it?

So mine has arrived! Have only sat in it for 10 mins or so because I'm working put some points to note based on previous chat. 1. No green strip on numberplate. Not a big deal as mine will be going on my personal plates soon anyway. 2. I couldn't immediately get the wireless phone charging to...

Got my delivery text - 21st Dec. A few questions from a naïve first time EV buyer: 1. On delivery are there any specific things to check (panel gaps?). I assume it is very rare to reject a car on delviery. 2. My charger isn't going in until 18th Jan so will be charging off a 3 pin plug for a...

My house was built with 5 panels fitted flush with the roof tiles. Have never given them a second thought to be honest. Will the charger that is being installed tap off them automatically or does it need some form of electrical wizardry to achieve this?
