If the FSD worked here then I suspect they would introduce the FSD subscription, realistically I don't see anything coming here for at least 2 years. There are cars that have been hacked and things turned on and probably FSD too but I would expect it means turning the Internet and updates off...

Yes I suspected when mine broke it was related to an update to the software so makes sense an update could fix the issue

Yep, it makes a big difference driving a car that has radar and you can actually use the traffic aware cruise control without it doing phantom braking all the time

I wouldn't bother with the Tesla chargers if you are looking for a cheap dumb chargers as you will need a PEN unit for this and it just adds to the costs, you can buy a charger and then get an electrician to install and test it. There are chargers that will work in dumb mode and don't have to be...

I would look for a 2021 car with heat pump, the performance in warranty are going to go for 28-30k at the moment, a LR would go for 25-28k. Any dealer warranty isn’t going to be as good as a Tesla warranty. Worth getting one with a free months manufacturer warranty as then you can get anything...

For the general public, the service centres are really the only way to get anything fixed, usually phone calls and emails go in to the abyss. If they can't fix the car within 6 months I would suggest you look at rejecting the car, especially as there is still no fix for it, perhaps mention more...

I assume you mean that they do buy rather than don't buy! I would go for the Y performance

Yes its been the case from the start, sometimes taking a long time to stop especially if Tesla is having connectivity issues. I suggest doing the schedule a charge from 23:30 so it doesn't start charging straight away, worst case it starts charging at 23:30 and then it gives you a schedule, in...

Depends when he brought the car and the options, at one point a LR could be had for £47k under existing inventory but if he brought it in Dec 2022 then its more like £57k (I think) + say £2k options, so if he then sold it to a dealer for £34k then that sounds about right. I agree that anything...

Yes right now on first look it seems like the retail resale value on the Y isn't that bad, I expect that prices will reduce beyond March when there will be a lot of 2 year ones put up for sale from leases etc. The ID 4 has also lost a lot of value for 2-3 year old models along with other brands...

Really you want to be able to charge at 7kW at your destinations, there are more and more chargers coming online the latest problem I see is Zap Map has now become out of date and decided to stop adding a lot of chargers/networks for some reason and Plugshare seems to be the best option right now

I expect at some point the new v4 chargers may become compatible, I doubt anything will be happening for the older ones apart from using the card with the Tesla online account if that works for your situation

This post was before you could view footage in the car like you can now, so they likely just gave up as its a lot of work to keep apps up to date etc

They reduced the prices in Jan 2023 so you were right in your 2022 prediction a year ago, I expect the UK prices for the Y will be coming down soon. I expect they will introduce more price cuts this year which will be at the same time where 2 year lease cars come up for sale too, not sure if...

I had a 2022 Y and the suspension was awful too, traded in for a used 3 at 50% off, I expect the Y to take a bigger hit from March when all the 2 year 2022 leases come off and they get sent to auction, be interesting to keep an eye on though I think the main reason is that the used EV market...
