These have now found a new home so no longer available. Thanks.

Anyone in need of a set of Model 3 Jack pads? Made by ReverseLogic US and described as Jack pads with magnet. I bought for my Model 3 back in 2019 but they have never been used and I no longer have the car. So if anyone wants them and is happy to cover postage costs I’m happy to donate to a...

All now sold, thanks for the interest and queries folks.

In the meantime, as it seems you can read but not reply to my PMs @rdpuk I'l send you a message with an email address and phone number so you can contact me regarding the dog guard, if you're still interested. Cheers.

Perhaps a friendly forum admin / moderator could help @rdpuk get PMs working? I’ve no idea why that message would occur. Unfortunately I’ve no idea how to contact an admin/ / moderator either so no much help here I’m afraid.

No worries. I haven’t received your message yet but I’m sure it’ll all work eventually:-)

I’ve messaged you so hopefully you get it :-) The envelope icon at the top of the page is where you find messages / conversations.

Hi there @rdpuk thanks, appreciate the interest. The mats and storage bins are now sold, getting collected today. The Guardsman dog guard is still available though if you are still interested in that. I see you are in Neath, a shame as I just drove past on the Heads of the Valley road last night...

Hi there. Thanks for the interest but the mats and boot storage bins are now sold, they’re getting collected today.

Well I’m glad to report that after much fannying about (technical term) with my Andersen A2 Konnect+ app (excellent charger, awful app) I was finally able to set a schedule via the charger to limit the charge period to the 00:30-04:30 off peak Octopus Go period. This was important as the only...

Same here. Two schedules appeared in my Konnect+ App that I did not create. I could not delete them. They disappeared only when I went to edit my energy tariff in the app and created a new schedule from that. It cleared all existing schedules. I now have my car plugged in, scheduled via the...

When in doubt, try again. Reinstalled for the 2nd time. Added Octopus Go as a new tariff and schedule, which cleared all other schedules. And the on/off toggle magically appeared. Hopefully it actually works tonight :-)

Deleted and reinstalled the Konnect+ app. Still no on/off toggle on the scheduler. Strange as the charge history is correctly logging the most recent charge periods, but the scheduler won’t work and I can’t lock/unlock the A2 either. So it’s communicating with the app but only partially.

That's what I thought, I was sure I saw a toggle when I checked it before. I'll try a re-install.

Has anyone with an Andersen A2 managed to get the scheduled charging working properly via the Konnect+ app? I can set a schedule up for the Octopus Go off-peak hours, but can find no way to select / enable the schedule for actual charging. Tried recreating the schedule again, it set another up...

Adding pictures. Everything is available for pick up in Chepstow or I can deliver locally (by local I mean anywhere between Cardiff / Bristol, that type of radius). 1) Model Y all-weather mats. £50 all in. All structurally sound, no rips or tears, but obviously used as per the pics (I blame...

It's not based on a ICE platform, unlike the XC40 Recharge it's a brand new platform designed for BEV. I reckon they've come up with a potential winner in a very competitive segment with the EX30.

I really like the look of that. Nicely produced video too, credit to Volvo.

I enjoyed my 4 years of Tesla ownership but in all honesty, if they put as much effort into software to deliver better driving features such as wipers headlights etc, as they seem to do in adding games, infotainment, self-driving etc, it would serve them better in my opinion. Get the basics on a...

I’ve got a full set of all weather rubber mats, boot liner and frunk liner originally bought via Tessories in the UK, up on the for sale thread (see post dated May 8th) as no longer have the Model Y. All in excellent condition. Also with rear seat protectors that Velcro onto the back of the...

Having just downsized from a Model Y to a Peugeot e-208, one of the factors I’m enjoying is the fact that the refinement and noise levels are better in the e-208 than in either of my Tesla’s (Model 3 and Y). Quite a surprise to be honest. I was never that bothered by noise levels in the Teslas...

I was also concerned about Model Y depreciation but decided to look at the bigger picture over my entire Tesla experience. My 2019 Model 3 sold last year for an excellent price when I replaced it with the Model Y. The Model Y sold a month ago for not so good a price in comparison, obviously...

On balance I’d have to say yes. I loved my first Tesla, Model 3 bought new in 2019 and was, only those few years ago, at the leading edge in terms of EV tech. A real novelty factor and I thoroughly enjoyed it, it wasn’t as well built as the Audi that preceded it but not many cars are and to be...

Well I’ll try to PM you and see if that kicks your PMs into action :-)

Hi there - I only have the dog guard itself, not the divider. Cheers.

Calling Model Y dog owners! For Sale: Guardsman Tesla Model Y Dog Guard. It’s this one: Tesla Model Y Dog Guard - 2021 onwards (Part no.G1622) - Guardsman Dog Guards - Retails at £145. Looking for £75. Don’t have the box obviously and collection only (I’m in Chepstow, south Wales) or happy to...

My Model Y insurance (Over 50, full NCD, sedate and rural Monmouthshire) was £500 via Churchill for the last year. Just had the renewal notice through, increased to £880! Cheapest I could see on GoCompare was £775. Just sold the Y this week so thankfully don’t have to stomach this increase. In...

On the lease vs buy argument, I tend to agree with the comment above. Cars cost money. I’m not entirely comfortable with leasing a car as I don’t own it, I don’t like being limited in terms of mileage and the end of lease charges are always, I think, a potential risk factor. So since leaving...

I like the blue, looks very smart. Mrs interbear loves a red car though so when we saw one in Elixir Red pop up on Motorpoint at what seemed a very decent price for an effectively new car, we went for it. Can’t say I’m disappointed in the colour choice. It’s very nice indeed and goes nicely with...

Agree with all of that. We test drove the e-2008 straight after driving the e-208. Coming from the Model Y we assumed we'd prefer the bigger car but actually loved the smaller hatchback so went for the e-208. Especially as we rarely have passengers other than the dog these days. I might change...

Yes the app experience is very inferior to Tesla, I agree. So far, as you say, the car element of the Peugeot is ideal for us. Had an enjoyable wee drive up the Wye Valley road tonight, it’s lovely to drive. I’m admittedly more impressed than I thought I would be. I hope it continues. Still...

For the last few years we've adopted a x1 ICE and x1 BEV vehicle strategy. We now use the ICE (VW campervan) for longer trips, weekends away etc, and the BEV (Tesla Model 3 initially then most recently a Model Y) for most day to day and local driving, which accounts for 80% of our driving. We...

You suspect correctly 😉 😆

Cancel that. No longer interested. Good luck with sale.

Hi @BelfastEV please see my above queries from a couple of weeks ago. Might still be interested in these. Thanks.

No owner / user should have to do this for a car costing over £50k. It’s ridiculous in all honesty.

It's a real "ear worm" for me now. Annoying as hell. Nest time you drive try pushing the trim upwards with your hand and see if that stops it. Does for me but I don't want to drive one-handed constantly, even with Autopilot :-)

My MY has developed an annoying and randomly occurring rattle on the ceiling trim above the driver door. If I push the trim up with my hand it stops, which suggests to me something is loose and causing the noise. Obviously when I had a mobile service visit to check this out alongside a more...

Good to know. I’m pretty sure it’s a rear seatbelt issue independent of the dog guard. Tesla seem to think not but I’m going to keep testing it as it needs to get resolved.

I have the Guardsman dog guard in my Model Y, installed exactly as per instructions and with the rear seats in the right position. It’s a very good solution. However, I’m finding that the rear seat belts have a problem, they do not retract / snap back when pulled out but stay loose. This seems...

Read an interesting article yesterday on Tesla price cuts. Basically said that when Tesla cuts or increases prices, it’s transparent and immediately obvious due to their direct online selling model. So gets a lot of media attention. Other car manufacturers manage to massage / hide their price...

In my last 2 trips to / from Scotland from Wales I took the Tesla on the 1st trip and the VW van (Transporter T6.1 converted to a camper) on the 2nd trip. As well as the VW completing the journey quicker due to the lack of wait / charging time, I noticed that the auto wipers and cruise control...

Good review @Avalyn and some very reasonable points made. I agree with your positives on drivetrain and negatives on the auto features. They apply to my Model Y as much as they do to the Model 3 (which I had previously). Personally, I wouldn't recommend an EV, even a Tesla, to anyone without...

I did exactly that with my previous Model 3 on the 2 year mark. Sold it via Motorway after 3 years when I switched to the current Model Y and as I had the receipt / history for the Tesla health check I noted that the Model 3 did have a FSH when submitting the info on the Motorway website. Just...

Hi - I was looking at the Rimetrix rims but they are very pricy! A few questions: How much are you looking for these, including UK shipping? Do they come with, or need, caps for the middle? Do they completely cover the silver Gemini wheel ie protect from curb rash? That was one of the...

Interesting debate but surely the simple answer for cars is that a mix of camera based vision and sensors is the best option for accurate and safe operation. In order of all round effectiveness in all weathers, night and day, I’d imagine it’s: 1. Cameras + Sensors 2. Sensors only 3. Cameras only...

Re your point in bold. I had to read the email from Tesla a few times to validate that yes, they actually meant March 31st and yes, as promotions go it is both crazy and will have zero impact. Absolutely ridiculous move from them. And yes, I think I've seen 1 new 23 plate vehicle this month, so...

I recall reading similar a few months ago. For now I've booked a Tesla mobile service visit - next week - to look at the seatbelt issue and also the annoying rattling from the door trim above the driver door interior. I have to whack it to keep it quiet for a few minutes, then it starts again...

Anyone got issues with rear seatbelts not maintaining their tension? I can pull our seatbelts entirely out and they will not snap back into place as they should. Which makes them unusable / unsafe. To fix it, I have to flatten the rear seats, then return them to their normal position and only...

Don’t agree. I find the USS pretty good. I think car manufacturers should be putting more sensors and assistance in their vehicles, not less. I get that Tesla Vision is probably a step ahead of other camera systems in isolation, but pairing it with radar and USS would surely be better than...
