    Sudden loss of heating after driving for about 20 minutes, no amount of tweaking the temperature setting has any affect. Separate issue when switching on climate from app - sometimes get “Climate command failed”. Anyone else had this?

    Octopus Energy Saving Sessions

    I don’t have the section in my app which says: “Energy Exports Solar Everything In Time-Based Control, your system will send solar and stored Powerwall energy to the grid during high-value time periods.” How is that set up?

    [UK] 2023.44

    A couple of finds on 44.1 The speed reduction when lifting the foot off the accelerator doesn’t seem to be as powerful as previous version. The defrost action doesn’t revert to normal temperature, so have to manually tweak it from max. Anyone else had this?

    Newbie - questions about the Model Y

    Does the current model Y have a front bumper camera? Or is this a feature of m3 Highland only?

    M3 to MY upgrade advice

    Here’s a thought, maybe they’ll switch off the USS at some stage so we’ll all be on vision only!

    UK Aug 23 Insurance Recommendations

    I just checked with my insurers (Churchill) for renewal cost, it’s gone up by 107%. No claims, apart from windscreen replacement, NCD 10 years. They told me the reason for the increase is they’ve had many claims from M3 owners so they’ve had to revise their prices. Mind you, I’ve only paid £339...

    HELP - Tesla app on my iPhone not showing my solar details anymore. I have a Powerwall, have updated to the latest Tesla app release. The usual swipe across the screen does nothing, only the car details are there! Was working ok this morning.

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    I would like clarification of the operation of the IO tariff. I use “Time-Based” Control in my App and assumed this would cause charging from the grid only during the assigned charging schedule, however it uses a significant amount of battery power from my Powerwall during (usually) the last two...

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Car didn’t charge! Connected the car last night at about 8pm, charging started immediately as usual, then I altered the current to about 10 amps so it took it from the Powerwall and not the grid, after a while I checked the Octopus app and it had set up the charging plan, I then changed the...

    Sat-Nav was misbehaving today - when I was about 5 miles from destination the information displayed 5 miles and 8 minutes which didn’t change at any time, even when I arrived. Maps, blue line and navigation instructions were as normal. Yesterday many occasions when the map tiling was missing-...

    I’m still on Go Faster tariff (8:30 -12:30) which expires 16th May, so switching to IO. My current procedure if I have the car plugged in, is to set the Powerwall reserve to say 15% so that it doesn’t get completely drained, haven’t found another way to block discharge. Does the Octopus app...

    I’m on 2022.44.25.3 and I wondered if anyone else has had similar difficulties. I keep being locked out with my iPhone in my pocket, keep re-trying, doing pirouettes and eventually it might open after 5 or 6 attempts at the door handle, sometimes have to accept defeat and use the card...

    [UK] 2022.40

    Problems with Driver Door Unlock Mode (40.4.1) Thought I would try this new feature, then decided to disable it, but it repeatably seem to switch itself back on, even after saving it disabled in my profile and easy access profile. Anyone else had this?

    Tyres ??

    I’m also wondering whether to stay with Michelin Pilot Sport 4S or search for an alternative which has a wider profile and therefore provide some protection against kerb rash, which I’ve never suffered from with other vehicles. I know of course the driver is to blame, but I can’t decide if it’s...

    Model Y insurance high?

    Had a renewal email from Churchill which showed an increase of £215 so I made contact online asking the reason why as it’s been £33? For the last two years. After many questions I had to confess two driving offences (speeding), so expected that to be the answer to my query, then followed the bad...

    Solar & Powerwall without DNO?

    How can the DNO know the source of the export? Apart from being not daylight hours. I’m on Octopus Go Faster at present as I’m still on the low rate tariff until May, but was planning going onto TEP afterwards. Will that involve another application to DNO?

    Navigation Planning

    When planning a trip with multiple way-points in the car, it seems to do what I want, however having done that, there doesn’t seem to be a way of saving it. This route is for use next week, so for now I have to use Cancel Navigation. The Recent Trips list only shows the last destinations set...

    Solar Panels UK - is it worth it?

    One option to consider is a Powerwall and as many solar panels you can afford, subject to DNO approval then sign up to the Tesla Energy Plan, currently 12p tariff either input or export (my area), no time scheduling for usage necessary.

    M3 faulty charging cable???

    It sounds to me like a loose connection, this increases the resistance at the junction and causes heat - definitely needs attention, it can only get worse!

    Windscreen chip

    Had my screen replaced by Tesla recently (because Autoglass couldn’t get one) and it cost £923.30 including new windscreen wipers. I had to pay and claim back from my insurer’s less the excess - in my case £75.
