    Couldn't properly lock car (lights stayed on, mirrors unfolded) 2021.40.6

    Hi everyone or three! :) Updated my M3 MIC 2021 Q1 at the beginning of the week to 2021.40.6, it used to lock itself fine until this evening. Haven't tried this again, but will keep an eye on. Night time re-parking (step 9 - alarm bells going off in my head): 1. Unlocked the car via app...

    Continuous indicator does not engage unless excessive force

    I push past the quick-flick all the way, the same amount of force and travel that I'd use to engage drive or reverse on the cruise stalk -- the latter never let me down. Whereas at least one missed indication per journey warrants a call to Tesla service me thinks..

    Continuous indicator does not engage unless excessive force

    Hi everyone, Been enjoying my new M3 LR MIC left, right, and centre! Albeit not so much about the left and right: when flicking indicator stalk all the way up or down, sometimes it doesn't engage, and I have to repeat with more force applied. Certainly more force than for the extremities of...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q1 collection and delivery experiences

    Collected blue LR last Saturday, all went smoothly in Birm. The niggles: found 4 scuffs scratches within the clear coat (front bumper each side, and on each nearside door). Tesla said they will buff them out but need to book via app and wait a week or two, as Saturdays they're open to do only...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q1 collection and delivery experiences

    Hey waiter, but I ordered one-pedal driving mode, and emergency stop is part of driving 😆 Surely not much info on that since there weren't many volunteers :D I too was curious if a car would brake or evade a collision, even when autopilot is off.

    Poll - 14 day EAP trial!

    During initial talks after I placed the order few weeks ago, Tesla adviser has been recommending me to buy the EAP for the UK roads (obviously on the basis that FSD is not there yet for the UK). He also said he's been using it himself for lane changes and parking. I'm curious if he already knew...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q1 collection and delivery experiences

    I only heard that the elderly in the US might sometimes get mixed up and slam on the "gas" when in on-pedal mode, thinking it's the brake, .. the rest is history:) How can you perform emergency braking with one-pedal mode, just lift off and the car will do that? Or is it only going for regen...

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Just got confirmation from Tesla and Black Horse that they tend to send final finance settlement, security questions, and request e-signatures via email as close to the pickup time as possible, so I'll have me laptop ready in case I need to answer things like my credit cards limit etc:) whilst...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q1 collection and delivery experiences

    I've just scheduled to pick up on the 20th from Small Heath Hwy -- Tesla's showroom (and St Andrew's stadium isn't far off). The one near Digbeth is their service centre. Or maybe they have large volumes at the beginning of the month and indeed rented the drive-about that off of a stadium :D

    His very own remark in the comments section (in reply to Durzel) is what got me worried: "Not my favourite and yes different shades, not really aligned. I don’t see the point." That or he's really pushing his alcantara-swap service:)

    Absolutely loving it too. I was referring to the shade of the wood trim. At 2:10 minute in the video, left door card was lighter than the dash, right door card was darker and discoloured. Can't put it all down on lighting (but I hope it's just that)
