Last trial I had convinced me just how "emperor's New clothes" it all was as does the fact most loan card have it too (though cannot use summon etc) and it sucks on those too. I'd also assume they would want to include Tesla vision before a trial? Timing - other than it being XMAS - seems odd.

Hi, Picked up car on 13th am. Traded in old M3 with Black Horse PCP settlement outstanding. Not been paid. Emailed 21st to: [email protected] . No reply. Phone line appears to be for leaving messages only? 23rd, still not paid. Already had to make 1 extra payment to old 'account' which I...

I tried online chat (they said 'no exceptions'), and then emailed the contactuk email last night. Picked up on the 13th and the car has issues. Frustrated.

Hi - which chat did you use? How? I took mine 13th and could have easily picked 15th… so annoyed. Will try too.

Took delivery on the 13th. Car has a fault, in service center today. Since I bought car the finance offer is better and now this which would effectively save me a few thousand quid. Really Gutted and exactly why it’s so hard to recommend Tesla to anyone. It’s all so random.

My 2023 model has a string with plastic handle inside the boot which is described as a 'manual release' or similar. My 2019 didnt as far as I remember.... though I never had a problem so not sure.

I have a service center appointment for this tomorrow. Brand new car. If I “jiggle” The manual release I can make it engage sometimes. Seems like a fault to me

I had this on my M3 and had to pour quite hot water all around the edges of the frunk. Not sure if same applies to the X, but a fan heater did nothing on the M3 frunk.

Got my RWD base White exterior black interior from Staines today. Got a persistent "Charging latch not engaged" error which results in 3Kw charging with my home charger which is fine... If I fiddle with the interior pull handle it sometimes works.. not great. Service appointment booked...

Are the tessories ones meant to be good? Googled reviews and not finding much Info?

Do people think all weather mats are essential? I have some rubber ones in my 2019 m3 now which work ok but a lot of leaves collect on edges (they have no edge lip). My new m3 arrives in 2.5 weeks meaning a taptes order may arrive in time etc…. Are they essential? My 2019 m3 came with no mats...

Anyone else not able to login and see their (yet to be delivered) car? Im sure its a temp fault, but I can see my existing car but when I click 'Manage' on the new one with a RN number I get a browser error.. wonder if something changing? I have a collection date but no 'official' VIN or reg or...

Great! Would much prefer an app store... But this is better than nothing!

WBAC validation of my 2019 Sr+ has dropped thousands since August. I have opted to upgrade to a 2023 RWD as Telsa offered me £33k for the SR+ (Locked in and valid for the new car). It makes way less financial sense than it would have months ago but WBAC are now offering me less than £31k… and...

Wouldn’t buy it for my existing car… but am getting a new RWD soon and the “new car + new buttons” effect would make me consider £1700! But yeah even that is outrageous.

Not proposing a long term discount, but for e.g. 1 - 3 months or until lack of USS not a problem, seems like a great way to sell EAP? I have to assume that a tiny, tiny percentage of owners buy it and even less FSD? I would never pay £3400... but £1700? Maybe. I tweeted Elon just now :)

Anyone tried tweeting Elon to ask about this? He has his hands full killing Twitter but it seems logical to me to discount EAP for USS-less cars?

Just got the “schedule collection” email… scheduled for 13th Dec in Staines. Ordered 2nd Nov, Vin within 10 days, EDD has been bang on since day 2 or 3 (2nd to 17th Dec). Scary stuff! Was expecting March or April next year!!!

So... its all going rather fast here. I am just over 3 years into a 4 year PCP on a SR+ which has been plagued with issues (not exaggerating). I put £200 down 2 weeks ago for Jan - Mar 23 delivery of a base white aero RWD black interior. I hoped to actually get it within 6 months based on...

Had all sorts of issues when I had 2 APs. Switched to one fast one and it was better then got Eeero 6 last year and it’s also been fine. Poor signal and fussy is a bad combo.

Would love to know this too

Thanks all. And another quickie which I don't think I have seen definitely answered - are they all 2023 models now? Or eg a delivery date of Dec - Jan might be a 2022 model?

Can I ask a range question? So on the website now it says RWD is 305 mile range or 317 with aero wheels. I have watched lots of YouTube videos of the LFP battery and range tests and most quote the range as 274 miles. Most are 6 - 10 month old videos. Has something changed to increase the range...

Ha - I mentioned something like this in the Tesla service center where I took my M3 for yet another warranty repair and they had no idea. They thought everyone was getting their cars in 1 - 3 months right now, and that it was only a little worse earlier in the year? Odd.. surely they have access...

I ordered base, white, aero this Wednesday (2 days ago) for Jan - Mar 23... now it say: Estimated Delivery: December 08 - December 24 Is that at all likely?

How can they charge £1000 over retail for an 'inventory' one? That seems so shady? I did this in 2019 and it was same price as new.

Seems like many here have waited a long time for the M3. If I order a base M3 RWD, white aero, the website says Jan - Mar 23. Any chance that's real?

Thanks for all the info everyone. My 2019 is a very badly made vehicle, which has soured me on the brand but when push comes to shove and I look at what’s out there it’s either going to be a new model 3 OR I keep mine going into year 5 and or 6… but so scared of owning this car without a...

Hi all, My 2019 SR+ is 3 years old. I am in year 3 of a 4 year PCP but am getting slightly itchy feet with it and am considering moving to a brand new all 'free' options - white & aero - (2023?) model which would be delivered within 3 - 6 months according to the site. The depreciation is good...

The M3 WiFi reception is pure garbage in my experience. I have a decent Netgear router and unless the router was within 10 feet the car wouldn't connect. I have Nests, iPads, phones, TVs all work fine and the router is good enough to service all and me sat in my garden through a multitude of...

Tesla had my car this week and found nothing wrong with the WiFi reception. I really don't think they did anything other than look at the car logs for 1 time I said it couldn't connect. My "fix" was to switch my router to US mode (which may have increased the transmit power though I cannot...

Welcome to EV ownership. The quoted range is what you tell your friends and family. Knock off 20 - 30% for the real world.

If anyone in the UK buys this you are a fool. It really is the Emperor's New Clothes.

Yep - have been battling this for weeks since moving router - have tried both positions. Either way something's wrong. It also doesn't pick up WiFi at my work/parents house and so on despite phones picking up WiFi in same location (with admitedly 1 bar only but a reasonable 54Mb connection).

Hi, I have awful WiFi reception in the M3. I have a upcoming service appointment and that's one of topics. However, I recently moved my home WiFi router to middle of house for better overall coverage which moved it 9m further away from car (but still with direct line of sight). Every other...

The Model 3 WiFi reception is pathetic - I find that moving my router 1m closer sorts all my issues. I can sit in the car with 2 bars on phone and zero on the Tesla. I have a single AP with 2.4 and 5ghz on same SSID (ie no mesh and a very common config these days). All in all they either have...

Thanks for the input - I have the gummi stuff but perhaps I haven't applied it properly? At least one of the noises could be that. Is there a video/written guide that best describes how to do it? As for the number of appointments - I'm just surprised that they seem to be in full swing. I cannot...

Hi, My M3 has a collection of annoying rattles. I went onto the app to register them assuming that it would inform me no appointments were to be had but it's quite the opposite - Heathrow has just about every appointment free. At this time I don't feel comfortable going there... But I just...

Hmmm tempting...

Good to hear. Id like more bass and a general improvement if possible.

Not in car now but something like "no external amplifier".

Hi, What are the practical options for upgrading the audio to something like the LR model etc? Doesn't have to be official but has anyone paid someone to add a subwoofer etc?

Have had it on 2 loan cars now. If it was £1000 I'd buy for my 3 but for what they charge it's a complete joke. For those that did buy it, if you could have trialed it for even 1 week would you gave signed up and paid the money? If so... Would genuinely love to hear why.

Yes!! I get this often. I don't use Facebook.. someone posted a link above to a Facebook group post - can anyone reproduce the DIY process to reset them?

Ok thanks. I might see if I can install a 16A commando socket... The breakout CU is directly behind this socket... Thanks!

Hi, Recently have had to charge at parents external wall socket a few times. Each time the max amps is 10A. Am I being stupid or should it be 13A? Thanks!

Is one of the reasons I went for the Tesla wall connector. Mind you, it doesn't seem 100% reliable and I sometimes have to press the button a few times to unlock the port. This is usually when I go to work and car has stopped charging hours ago so car likely fully asleep?

Mine all went rather smoothly. Joined octopus, about 2 weeks later meter installed then about 3 weeks after that I was on Go. 2 weeks into that I was invited into the "faster" preview so now I have 5 hours cheap per night. It wasn't super speedy but all in all about the right speed that I was...

The very idea that FSD is worth anywhere near £5800 seems utterly ludicrous to me. The thought that they may increase the price due to Smart Summon (which they did in the US) is frankly laughable.

Were you using TeslaFi or another app? Or none?
