Dear all I had my Model 3 for about 3.5 years, and it feels to me like there are lots more bugs and niggles than there used to be. A selection of recent ones for me below; any advice, solutions or empathy gratefully received: Walk away lock works for me all the time, but for my partner only...

There's not a whole lot more space for kids in the back of a Y, the interiors are practically identical.

I second that, had a decent slow-food burger and chips there back when it was still dry enough to sit in the beer garden

Had that problem on my Model 3, similar ish age. Took it to the service centre, they did something with ball joints and control arms. Fixed it. Apparently a not uncommon problem. I would make an appointment.

What car was the in-law picking up? Not electric?

Same here, just took the keys. Was on the back of a transporter and gone while I was still waiting to collect the Tesla. Price offered was quite low compared with a WBAC quote, but after 10 weeks waiting for the ship from Fremont, I took it to WBAC and their offer was lower so went through with...

Got the email, followed the link, entered the code and it says ‘invalid’.... anyone else?

Does the indicator stalk not drive anyone else nuts? Have I clicked it to fully on or just a brief flash? If I click it fully the other way on a roundabout, will it indicate or not? If I click it gently the other way, will it turn the indicator off again or put it on in the opposite direction...

Hey chaps, somewhat off topic I know, but I’m wondering whether anyone has any experience with replacing a combi boiler with an air source heat pump? Specifically, I’m wondering about cost for a 16kw system for a large semi – online there are some ballparks in the £8-£12K range, whereas the...

Worked for me this morning too for the first time in a week...

Same problem here, before and after upgrading to ios14. It’s definitely car related, think it’s not connecting to the mobile network where it should be getting wake instructions from. Maybe Tesla Uk forgot to pay the phone bill!

If you click on the navigation pane on the map so it expands to show all the turns, it gives you a live battery estimate for the destination at the bottom. I’ve made trips before where it showed 5% to start, but then with a bit of careful driving will creep up to 10, 15% and remove the stress...

Got one of these: Britax Römer Vehicle Seat Protector https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00SYSWXQE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_DxfqFb7TWVQJA Seems to do the trick. It’s not hard, so not sure whether it will stop indents long term but has so far (a year)
