    Anyone had their Model 3 trunk wiring harness replaced successfully yet through the recall?

    Tesla Mobile Service has just been to look at my car, the purple wire in the harness leading into the boot has snapped and the white one was on its last legs. Luckily car is under warranty still, so the harness is being replaced free of charge.

    Anyone had their Model 3 trunk wiring harness replaced successfully yet through the recall?

    My boot has suddenly stopped working, I have booked a Mobile Service appointment, they have told me that they have ordered a new lock mechanism and a new wiring harness as these are the two most likely reasons. As far as I know, my camera is fine, but as mentioned previously I'm never in the car...

    How are you faring in the cold weather?

    For me, the biggest item of notice with the cold weather is how much using the heater chews up my battery! I did a journey last night, the outward way I had the heating on AUTO (TeslaFi says my fan was an average of 3) and was struggling to get below 300Wh/mile. TeslaFi noted my efficiency...

    Not sure if this thread helps you, perhaps the Charger is set to 'Legacy' mode by an internal DIP switch? Destination charger settings

    Destination chargers

    I've just been out to check my SR+. It's not plugged in and is showing my max current as 16A, however I have charged up several times at a local Tesco Pod Point charger at 30A (7kW free charger). So it may be a case of just give-it-a-go and see what you get!

    Destination chargers

    I believe that the maximum rate your car can accept via a Destination Charger is determined by the type of Model 3 you have. See attached. Try the 'Tap the lightning bolt icon on the touchscreen to view the max amperage of your vehicle'

    Here's how to charge with 32A commando in UK

    Thanks very much for the clarification, it did seem too good to be true! The 'Type B' in the description threw me. I'll keep looking, thanks again.

    Here's how to charge with 32A commando in UK

    Regarding the discussion of the cost of Type B RCDs, I am looking at installing a switched isolatable 16A commando socket in my driveway and intend to protect the circuit with the attached mini-RCBO from Screwfix (I intend to use the 20A version rather than the 32A one). I currently charge from...

    Charge cable... coming from an ampera.

    I believe that the J1772 plug is a Type 1 plug, whereas the connector on the Model 3 is a Mennekes Type 2. Not sure what 'Mode 2' means, don't think it's the same as 'Type 2'

    The White SR+ Aero wheels Club

    I ordered mine mid-July and picked up on the 25th Sep, despite an expected delivery date of 15th October on my Final Invoice. Exactly same spec as you. There did appear to be a lot of Performance models being supplied the day I was there.

    What do you need to take for collection?

    The only thing they took from me was my driving license. The website says you need to take proof of insurance but they never asked me for this. I'd take a good book as well!! My delivery was due at 4pm, but car wasn't available until 7pm....

    Model 3 bought through ltd company needs insuring

    As far as I am aware, the 100% Writedown in the form of First Year Allowances on buying an electric car (as a way of reducing your corporation tax bill) only applies to NEW cars, not second hand ones, so I don't think your company buying it from you will qualify you for this unfortunately.

    UMC Mains Extension cable

    Thanks for the feedback, I actually cut it back to 7A overnight for exactly that reason, didn't want to feel the plug as it was sheeting down!

    UMC Mains Extension cable

    I got my car yesterday and plugged in to an external 3 pin plug using the supplied cable and adapter when I got home. It obviously knows you are using the 3 pin adapter, and will not let you charge over 10A.

    West Drayton/Heathrow Sept month end pickups

    I picked up my SR+ yesterday from West Drayton, scheduled pickup 4pm. Arrived early, around 2:30pm as I came by train, thought I'd have a look around to fill the time. Very excited, constantly peering around corners to try and spot my reg number. Watched the presentation which, as commented...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    After I posted, I also got an SMS asking me to reply 'YES' to confirm the delivery date. I'd never received any texts before, so this does suggest that it's Rescheduled in their system, not a second mail to me.

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Found an email from Tesla in my Junk Mail this morning, titled 'Rescheduled : Delivery Date 25th September' or similar. Scheduled pickup from West Drayton, despite final invoice giving estimated delivery of 15th October. So three weeks early! If it's 'Rescheduled', suggests I may have...

    Saw my first M3 here in far flung Pembrokeshire earlier today, same spec as mine so was excited to say the least!! Footage from my Dashcam. Can't wait to get my hands on mine!

    Called Tesla today, got a response almost immediately and was informed that my Model 3 will be ready by the end of the month, despite my Final Invoice stating that estimated delivery was 19th October. Excited!

    Mr Musk apparently looking into the customer service in UK

    Based on previous forums, I had no intention of calling Tesla and waiting for hours for a response, but thought I'd give it a try this morning, as things look to be improving. Just wanted to confirm with Tesla that my Final Payment for my Model 3 had been received, as the website was telling me...

    2019/20 Orders and Deliveries [closed]

    Not the same one as us!! Originally when I ordered it said August delivery, so two months late. Not actually too disappointed, it means less BIK to pay before it goes free in April! Saying that, can't wait to get my hands on it...
