Amazed that the P+ is that much worse than P-. I am easily getting 300 miles+ on my P-. I guess those fancy wheels and sticky tyres really do make a difference to range!

OK Maybe it is a camera issue as neither of those things are happening.

Anyone else noticing inconsistencies between the interaction of TACC and hold in stop start traffic? One thing that delighted me when I first got my M3 was that TACC would start the car moving again after being stopped in traffic. The i3 used to require you to touch the accelerator every time...

I can't see how you can possibly get the 230 miles you mentioned in your OP if you are getting 230-250m/kwh on motorways. That would be over 300 miles of range, which is exactly what I am seeing on my P- on long trips. Am I missing something? Edit, or did you actially mean 230-250 miles per...

Ah Ok thanks. I don't need it as my car config is correct but it would be nice to be able to pick 18" without Aero as an option

When did this come in because my car says SW is up to date and I do not see that option in the service menu.

Really useful info thanks. A bit depressing that only 6 new sites seem to have been added in the lase 2 years. It is still a massive plus for me though compared to hunting rapids in my i3 as I used to have to do!

You can turn it on virtually anywhere the car detects road markings but that does not mean it is a good idea! I tend to use Auto steer on DC andf motorways or in jams. TACC seems to work anywhere but does not like oncoming traffic on sharp bends I have found. Can be prone to phantom braking in...

You don't necessarily "lose all that money" If the cost of the lease over the period is the same orless than the depreciation you will be better off than trading in a car bought on HP. OP if you are worried about future developments (the are happening fast in the EV world) then lease or PCP is...

Hi From sunny Worthing ;) give me a wave if you see a black P- on the A27! Can't add much except for range, I did a trip to North Norfolk last week (190 miles) Started with 100% and finished with approx 42% so on long trips taking it steady (70-80) where possible 300+ miles is easily achievable...

You do get a notification (bottom right). I have used SC twice now and the amount of time was a lot less yesterday (25c outside) so I suspect it is temp based as the battery was probably hotter to start with.

Drove from Worthing to north Norfolk yesterday(190 miles) trip energy graph predicted 32%remaining on arrival. Stopped at Thetford sc to top up and the energy graph was estimating 42% on arrival 48 miles away. Pretty pleased with that. p- by the way averaged about 240 wh/mile

I charged yesterday. Started with 52% and got 102. Dropped to about 35-40% as it got up to 90% as expected.

??

Sorry! As mentioned earlier in the thread the charger at work is an old Electromotive one that is basically a 3 pin plug on a post! It charged at 10/10A but still dropped to 5/5A, though not as frequently.

And a lot of spare time ;)

Maybe I am not fussy but have owned Audi (2 TTs) and modern Porsche and I am quite happy with the interior of mine. Zero rattles, nice touch points etc. I think it is a bit easy to get carried away with this stuff while waiting.... "less flex when pushing on interior panels" I mean how often do...

7? Wow, can you even see the car in front? ;) I have mine set on 3 which seems to give a 2 second gap at 70.

So tested with the charger at work and the same thing is happening so I assume it is the UMC that is the issue not the electrics. Do I just report it via the "Request Help" section of my home page?

My P- is B as well

It will, unless it comes up against something it does not like or you let go of the wheel.

Problem is, since I do not have the V5 (lease) I do not know which plates are right!

What is the 0-60 of your sports car?

I am going from Worthing up to Holt this week. Will let you know how my P- gets on.

Wow! I ned to get a USB! What brand are you using? USB stick or hard drive? Hope it gets sorted and they catch the idiot.

Oh really, I have not watched that one!

Also look up Tesla Driver on youtube. He drives around various cities on AP with entertaining results!

So just an update. Phoned LV and gave them the new reg. They seemed happy. Just got an email from Tesla saying they are sending out new plates with the original reg on them! How easy are plates to fit?

Don't know, I quite like driving so have not tried it on those roads ;) Also it is brand new and I don't want to put it in a ditch before I get used to it!

Has been perfect on the motorway/dual roads for me.

Thanks will try it on my work chargepoint and report back. M guess is it is dodgy wiring in the garage but we will see. For what it is worth I have put a pic of the socket below...

Agreed it is not that clear but I think it is an option on most models.

Don't have the V5 as it is leased. Car is currently insured (or technically not insured I suspect) with the wrong reg

You could not make this up! Just noticed that the car I picked up on Thursday has a completely different reg to the one communicated by Tesla! I know... I Know, I should have checked but surely it is reasonable to assume they get something this simple right!

I popped into Bluewater (from Worthing) yesterday to test using the superchargers and found my actual range was just slightly above the predicted range graph on the energy tab. Also, certainly on my i3 city driving, even if stop start is more efficient than motorway driving.

Pretty sure VAG group cars do on their adaptive cruise. My point to be honest was the idea that Tesla call the top spec Full Self Driving.... I would have thought going at the correct speed was a pretty early feature to get right for that to happen.

Hmm not exactly cutting edge is it! I assume the same is true of FSD (not seen anyone mention it as a difference) Not exactly full self driving ;)

Thanks but will it then change automatically if the limit changes?

Nice, that is encouraging range!

having said that I am sure I have read that Tesla used a rolling start for the 0-60 time on the performance models?

Agreed though I suspect it is getting warm when it is running at 10A amd maybe dropping down to 5A because of that?

I make that 330 miles fro a 75 battery? Or is yours an SR+?

Yes I neglected to mention there ar 8 or so superchargers at Heathrow service centre so you could just pull up and charge if needed. I only had 70 miles to go so didn't bother.

No extension cable. It is a dual socket that has a trip switch built in (for use with lawnmowers etc.) Garage door plugged into one socket UMC direct into the other. There is an old Electromotive charger at our office car park that uses a 3 pin socket so will try that this week to see if I get...

Anyone manage to get AP to automatically adjust to changes in speed limit? Speed limit sign on the screen shows the correct limit but the car just continues on at whatever speed it is set to.

Interesting question, I htought track mode was part of the performance upgrade pack but my P- has that option in the menus.

When I say hot, we are not talking uncomfortable to touch or anything like that. Maybe I should have described it as warm. I think the obvious solution is to get a wall charger fitted but would like to know if there is a problem with the UMC. I will try it at my parents house next time I am...

It is 100% saying 5/5A

Only have a single socket in the garage so not an option
