    Servicing on the Isle of Wight

    My Model 3 is now 2 years old and as per the owners manual I want the air filter checked, brake fluid checked and tyres rotated. Is it best to do this with a Tesla service centre (the nearest service centre is Winchester) or can I take it to any car service centre for those things? Thanks for...

    A40 Into London Speeds Wrong (And ULEZ/Congestion Charge)

    I've swapped the train for Tesla in my commute to London. I've noticed most of the 20 limit roads I go along the Tesla thinks are 30.

    Creaking sound on dash behind steering wheel

    Hi. It’s not constant and doesn’t happen everyday, but I’ve noticed an occasional creaking sound behind the steering wheel. I’ve only had the Model 3 for just under two weeks, so it could be the AC passing over/through new plastic. I’ve got the car going in in November for minor paintwork...

    Front and rear noise maker?

    So noticed my new M3 doesn’t make the noise when in reverse or forwards at low speeds. Is it a V10 thing?

    Picked up Elmo at Birmingham today complete with BJ69 plate . He’s and inventory red/white with tow, not my original w/w with tow order. Currently supercharging – only delivered to me with 73miles range –before heading back up to the lake distinct. Love him already!

    Anyone at Birmingham tomorrow afternoon for pickup?

    If so. See you there.

    BJ69 Regnumber Anyone?

    Noooooo. I’ve got a BJ69 plate I’ll have to dig out my old private plate I’ve been holding onto.

    thanks for the tips!

    Running out of lightning

    I’m sure this has been asked already. But what happens if you get somewhere without enough range to get it to a charger? Or a public charger that is out of order, or just run out entirely. Is there free roadside assistance from Tesla? Or need AA/similar? thanks

    Indeed. Yet it was that promise that has made a mess of delivery appointments for many.

    Dilemma

    So went to WD where they sorted the invoice problem on the Birmingham order. Turns out my original white order wasn’t ready today and only Monday from WD. Being that I’m in the Lake District now I went with the Birmingham order, so I’ll drive down on Monday in my holiday hire car and drop off...

    Dilemma

    Having been told that my white/white SR+ with tow ordered on 1st August would not be with me until late October/November and the stressful stories of woe others were having, I decided to order one of the inventory cars that popped up on Tesla’s site mid week. Red/white SR+ with Tow. I have a...

    Tow Hitch Waiting Room

    Yeah I saw that. Was tempted to go for the red/white SR+ with tow. But then I thought that I should just be patient and wait for my white/white SR+ with tow. They’ve both gone now though.

    I really want white interior... I’d regret it if I went for black. So I guess I’ll wait.

    Can anyone recommend a dog cover for the rear?

    Is it worth it?

    Am I missing something. But I’ve never understood the need for a HUD. Even existing cars we’ve always had to glance down, as you can’t actually make out the speed in your peripheral. And in the m3 you instead glance left. It’s not like you have to actually move your head. There’s also speed alerts.

    Yep and that looks like the USA, where they don't have Tow Hitch as an option yet, so that's an after market tow bar. Sexy ass car though!!!!

    If my unicorn is ready for pickup at Heathrow while I'm on holiday in the Lake District beginning of October, I'm gonna drive down and get it! ;)

    I just spoke to Will too. Very helpful chap. Sadly I have yet to be VIN matched to a unicorn M3 (SR+ White/White with Tow), so he said to expect mine in the next 1-2 months, hopefully no later than November. Not great but at least I can relax now that I've heard from a human being and that I...

    Can anyone recommend a dog cover for the rear?

    Awesome. Have you tried taking out the back seat to allow the backs to fold flat, and the back part of the orvis hammock to lay into the boot space?

    I wish they’d add a cancel order link before paying the deposit. I have an active order that I paid by credit card, but also have an order that I mistakenly set as a wire transfer earlier the same day. I called to switch to a credit card order but was told just to set up a new order, which I...

    Dejected with customer service UK

    I had the same problem. While it is annoying, 1000 miles on a supercharger isn’t a massive amount of money £70? Or something?. So probably not worth the stress.

    Model 3 Insurance - Young Driver

    Best bet is to get your parents to be owner and main named driver and put you on the insurance as a secondary driver, will still be pricey but probably less so. I drove my dad’s Volvo Turbo more than he did back in the 90s when I was 17 and never wrapped it around a tree, but then again the 0-60...
