I'm guessing he panicked, press the accelerator accidentally causing the car to slightly moves (twitches). This then causes him to slam the same pedal down thinking its the brake (which ends up being the accelerator) and this causes the car to shoot off in reverse. Now he is really panicking and...

Thanks all. @m3gt2 got first place, and it looks like less than a minute between 1st and 2nd. @m3gt2 WooHoo :D. I'll forward the link to my friend. Many thanks

Hi All Its for a friend who has just received their MY. I no longer use Teslafi so don't need the referral. First one to PM me their referral link get a free "WooHoo" from me, and the free referral month* from my friend. * If they sign up after the trial! :D Many thanks all

Fantastic and funny post @Sixer and i agree with the feel and experience coming from a Tesla M3 for 4 years. I now have a BMW X2 Hybrid - Starting this car i have to press/pull 3 blooming things in a particular order before i pull off. No more just get in and bashing in a 4 pin code, slapping...

1 way Sainsburys could help in reducing the cost per kw is by getting rid of those stupid receipt machines that print out offers. I bet they spend a fortune on those printers and paper. Self Service till: "Do you want a receipt" Me: Presses No (Me thinking i need to save a few trees) Self...

Oh yeh! Doh I suppose that's wrong now due to WFH!! * Designed via Teams!. Made in China

Totally legitimate, They got the parts from their mate who knows a man, who knows a man and his brother is based in Russia... - "joke" Imported materials are fine and not to be stereotyped. I believe they get there parts from totalled/written off cars, you will notice some parts advertised...

I used these people who are based in Lithuania and sell spares (if in stock). I got a fog light (OEM) from them and was Brand new for £120, my old one had been hit and fogged up after so needed replacing. Delivery was very fast, around 5 days to UK and was really well packed. Email them with...

Tesla can monitor your car, know where you are & know that you are picking your nose in your car. But they need evidence that you bought FSD at full price, which is a software download! "Slaps forehead"

🤣 To me..

I'm still waiting on my winnings from the Luton Fire.... People were betting their House, Savings or were even going to eat their hat that is was an EV that started it. Some were saying that its a government cover-up if the media said it was anything else. Ah well @Tonybvi - that's clearly a...

Found it - They should be covered!. They just need to flash this tweet (Sorry i mean "X") at the Service centre!

Let us all not forget this tragedy in 2018 (Before the Model 3 even appeared on UK shores and EV's started to become a common sight) https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-merseyside-46290095 Spoiler - Land Rover started this one!

Very true about the Camera checking car model and colour. Forgot they could do that. The Green stripe is easy to remove. Options - 1. Cut it off and do the same on other side the same width. 2. Spray it blue and slap a UK flag on it. 3. slap an Irish flag sticker on it! I have seen a few (not...

Range rover vid is being posted on X (Not confirmed if this was the Car or what type, or if its the real incident tho) Also X is rife with "It was an EV", "I'm never going to buy one", "Ban EV's" - also a few blaming Tesla and that it was the chargers on the roof. The chargers are in Car Park...

Ulez. They maybe stealing ev plates to use on their vehicles, to not pay the charge, but also to not raise awareness. If they slap them on their van but drive as normal and carefully. Nothing will get alerted. You lost some plates but you won't know a thing unless they get caught speeding...

In the early 90s, my Maths teacher had just received his prized possession, a Toyota MR2. He parked it at the front of the School by the main doors. In front of this small tarmaced area at the front of the school where some cars were parked was a Cricket pitch. My Friend at school was a great...

"Conspiracy Start" The Oil industry are looking for other ways to punish EV drivers rather than scare tactics in the news..... They bribe the Insurance companies to hike the premiums on EV's! "Conspiracy End" If it is true in what the insurance companies are saying and that the cost of...

There is your answer. I handed my Lease back in August and the person checking and picking up my car marked it as "non compliant" on the Tyres! I questioned this as the tyres meet every number loading etc and the manual (2021 version) even tells you these numbers. He said i needed T0 tyres as...

I have just had my MOT (4yr old) on my M3 sr and the set of types I have on still have 5mm tread on them and have covered 35k miles! The oem Michelin covered 30k before i needed to change them. vredestein quatrac pro Worth a look. Ps I don't drive stupidly. And mainly motorway and duel...

My lease is now up and my M3 sr goes back Aug 21st. (Sad times) My insurance to date with same excess each time and no change to my circumstances apart from my age and NCB increasing in years. 2019 £650 2020 £670 2021 £665 2022 £880 2023 £1375 (renewal letter came today)

Happened to me. Squeaky front suspension arm for weeks. Booked in and the day before the visit it disappeared. Luckily I had a recording of it and they were happy with the evidence. Replaced the suspension arm.

Go Truly off grid and use candles :) and leave a load of board games. Cooking/hot water/heating uses locally source wood (defra approved of course.......!) Emergency backup power with a small battery (Anker kind?) that is portable and has a few portable solar panels to charge off. Allows the...

They say it's eco-friendly, but I'm pretty sure it's just dead quiet.

Try/do the toilet paper test. Tape some long (7inch.....) strips of paper to the vent positions and then move the position on the screen around and see where they point. Hopefully may be of some help

You could try Bathwick tyres? give them a call - They have great customer service there so should be able to do an MOT on a M3. There is a printable list of what to know on the m3 for an MOT on this forum somewhere.

lol, i also did it by email this morning. 13min between me emailing in the request and being switched! Also as @phil4 above mentions is that the EPG discount will apply whenever Tracker unit rates go above the base EPG level (34p / kWh for electricity and 10.3p / kWh for gas; on average, but...

Nope, not manufacture approved, but they do have to be premium and be of the same width, size, weight class etc (I'm not sure what classifies a premium tyre?) Lots (Threads) talk about CrossClimates, Vredestein Quatrac Pro (I have these and have lasted 36k and still going!!) etc Tesla M3's...

Re-reading the artical again. Evyve have placed an order for 10,000 fast chargers. Thats it. just an order for the units which will end up in a warehousse somewhere waiting for a day to be installed on site or sold on at a profit. Its not the final product being installed and then used by us...

That works out between now and the end of 2029 at roughly 4 installed a day (24/7/365). 28 a week. They better get cracking then!

OEM from here on the Tesla Website. (£21 per blade) https://shop.tesla.com/en_gb/product/model-3-wiper-blades Or a similar version to the OEMs (i get these and are identical) - you need 1 of each. (£21.11 for the set) Long blade - Lucas LWDF26J Wiper Blades Short blade - Lucas LWDF19J Wiper Blades

Mine was fixed by getting a new set of blades which are identical to the OEM's. Mine was caused by a different brand which has a slightly thicker stem. Not sure how its done if the wipers are OEM. May need the spring adjusting on the arm? not sure how thats done tho.

It looks like the wiper arm is pressing to hard on the blade and lifting up the blade ends off the screen in that corner when wiping. I had this happen when i changed my blades for the first time to a Bosch blade. They were the same length but looked different in design (Slightly thicker). the...

Close. this was my invoice back then

https://www.wiperblades.co.uk/lucas-lwdf26j-airflex-flat-windscreen-wiper-blade https://www.wiperblades.co.uk/lucas-lwdf19j-airflex-flat-windscreen-wiper-blade £22 ish for the set I have had these twice and are great (Almost identical to the OEM's)

I have these on my M3, i belive the below is the correct size for the MY? They are brilliant. Last ages and really good grip in wet. Also no range reduction that i noticed. I bought mine at Camskill and had them fitted by a local tyre place for around £50 for all 4. nearly at 40k miles on 1 set...

Not sure if you already know? (Agree with you regards the VW iD app, It's a waste of time.) https://www.facebook.com/VolkswagenExeter/videos/%EF%B8%8Ftop-tip%EF%B8%8Fhow-to-set-up-timed-charging-on-the-id3this-was-tried-on-2-cars-running/295305402014448/ Video showing you how to set schedule...

K-POP (Kerb Parking Only Posse) say thank you. My house is fully EV (2nr - Tesla & id4) Its massively changed in the 3 (and a bit) years i have had my M3.

Always have a plan B for charging. Also have a Plan C, D & E just in case, yes it does happen. Free charging is "almost" a thing of the past (unless at work!) so don't go chasing it. But you can still budget if you shop around the networks. It takes time but give it around 3-6 months and you...

Outside shot here: Is it a Cat or dog (Or wild animal) that is using the area around the plants as a bathroom? (Pee/spray not Nr2)

Depends who you get. Worth shouting Warranty replacement!! (I did on my situation below) I had a different situation. The cable end that plugs into the charger unit got burnt out by something faulty. Either the charge cable end was faulty or charge unit socket was faulty. Either way Tesla at...

I pm'ed you :) Keep this thread clear of back and forwards convo :)

It is :) 32amp version

You up for a sale? 😊

Wanted (Im After) 32amp Blue Commando UMC Gen 2 adapter. Not sure if anyone has one that they no longer want and looking to sell?

I can see it now! "Sorry love. I know its cold in the house but we need to save on energy as its costing a fortune. I will see you later over a hot cuppa" Gets into their pre-heated Tesla and goes to work

No mistype here :) Still is 28p on the app for the 50kw (Tesco Wigston). May change later.

Just had a look at the Pod app and noticed the 7kw at 28p, 22kw at 40p and the 50kw at 28p? Also noticed 2 people are plugged into the 22kw, prob the DPD guys. They gonna have a shock!
