Thanks Tony, good point on that add on bit! I had a look at Green Flag - in fact that's where I started. The problem I had with them was that the dropdown list of cars didn't include Tesla, I figured I'd have to use 'Unknown'.

I have the exact same issue - no electricity bill since Feb. I've contacted them several times apparently it's with the smart metre team! Gonna get a massive bill at some point, no idea what rate I'll be charged

I'm heading to France and possibly Italy in the next couple of weeks, does anyone have any recommendations on which is the best breakdown cover - I want something more comprehensive that the standard Tesla assistance. I guess most UK firms contract out jobs so it can be a lottery, any...

I was there a couple of weeks ago, it's a covid quarantine hotel, loads of security but just drove round to the superchargers no problem. The barriers were open.

Has anyone had any experience of this TAPTES Tesla Model 3 Roof Rack, for 2017 to 2021 Model 3 looks like the OEM but for half the price. Too good to be true?

Thanks, appreciate the response. I'm really not that fussed about the deg as the car typically outlasts me on a trip (I did a 680 mile trip from the Highlands to Southampton last Sunday and I needed the stops before the car!) I was more interested in comparison with others, as you say we're all...

My M3P is 54 weeks old, has 15,000 miles on the clock, has been changed to 100% 3 times, typically charged to 80% and is showing a max range of 288 miles at 100%. Have I got the largest degredation of anyone on here (I'm the lowest of my millage on Teslafi)?

Aviemore down to 3 bays yesterday as 1 bay was taken up by an e-tron. First time I've seen a supercharger bay blocked by an EV :(

Sadly the Aviemore supercharger is down to 3 stalls thanks for this E-tron driver clogging one of them. I stopped counting at 14 other spare spaces in the vicinity which could have been used. Perhaps it was very busy and he / she had an emergency to attend. o_O

Finally pulled the trigger on the t-sportlines, there is labour day sale at the moment, discounts on both wheels and postage.

Thanks for the trip report. Particularly useful since I'm off to Lake Garda next Saturday (hopefully). Southampton -> Calais -> Heidelberg (via Aachen) -> Lake Garda. Will see if I am able to avoid having to quarantine by the time I get back - I won't be holding my breath. Also interested in...

Thanks for this info, it definitely seems worth it although I can't seem to find any reference to it, are you able to provide a link showing this benefit?

This was the behaviour I had a few weeks ago Charging Issue.mp4 . It happened twice, haven't seen it since. I wondered after whether it was related to a conflict with the ev.energy app?

Finally getting ready to purchase these Tesla Model 3 18. Before I pull the trigger are those of you that have bought from tsportline still happy with them?

My M3P is named Jeff.

Yes, used to be Southampton I'm pretty sure.

Hi all, I had charging issues the other day using an AC charger which I hadn't used before. The charge rate was varying between 0 - 4 kw. I assumed there was an issue with the charger although eventually it settled on 8 kw (32A). Today I experienced the same behaviour at home for the first...

Dropped Octopus a line chasing up my smart meter install 2 days ago, they responded today saying that have have a slot on Tuesday if convenient (it is). Work chasing them up if you're on the waiting list.

This is interesting and a fair bit cheaper than the Super Green tariff i'm on while waiting for my smart meter (at least at current wholesale rates). I can't figure out how to switch tariffs on their site, did you just email them?

Thanks for the info, really helpful.

Thanks jefoth, did you email Tesla to get an additional set of rims? And what was the cost? Can I fit 18 inch with the M3P callipers?

Seems an odd time to be considering the above but didn't find much choice last year. Now that the M3 is much more common have you seen anything that you'd recommend for the winter season? Nights will be drawing in again from tomorrow - Winter is coming! Thoughts appreciated.

Please can someone give me an octopus referral code?

I've left my M3 plugged in as the handbook suggests. I've set charge limit to 60%, hopefully that's about the best I can do for battery maintenance. Car hasn't moved for nearly 3 weeks and it's going to be a while yet I expect.

Trading 212 is my recommendation.

Great updates, appreciated. I'll be getting a KiWhi/EasyTrip card based on your experience. Heading down to Spain in a couple of months, unfortunately it doesn't seem compatible there so need to find an equivalent. There's one place i'm going to which will be inconvenient to have to reroute to...

Thanks, seems pretty 'splash and dash' (that expression could do with modernising) the whole way to make it reasonable, maybe i'll choose somewhere an hour or so further north. Suggestions welcome / encouraged.

Driving from Le Havre down to near Barcelona in a couple of months. I'm looking to stay overnight somewhere en route, quite fancy somewhere in Andorra, if I roll off the boat at 9:00AM how realistic is it that i'll be there for 9:00PMish?

333 wh/mi over 7,180 miles... Not sure why mine is so high, quite a lot of motorway mileage might have something to do with it.

Anyone got any experience or thoughts on these vs OEM? https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B081QJ7ZWS/ref=cm_sw_r_em_apa_i_qhxhEb236G34X

What roof bars have you got? The OEM ones are pricey are there any other options?

Thanks for this, really helpful.

I'm off to France in a couple of weeks and have been searching for how I can switch the high beam to work correctly while driving on the other side of the road. I saw on historic post elsewhere speculating that it happed automatically based on GPS, haven seen anything in the manual. Anyone...

Looks like SSE launched a new EV tariff today, haven't crunched the numbers yet, seems you have to actually do a quote in order to actually see standing charge and p per KWH New SSE energy tariff offers EV owners thousands of free miles a year

Belated update, delivered 27/9/2019 :)

I've got exactly the same, irritating whistle from the passenger side at higher speeds. Also i've booked into SC to get my boot lid adjusted. Everything else is spot on. Let me know if you find a resolution to the whistle.

Anyone used the I'm hungry or I'm feeling lucky feature yet? Any interesting results?

Thanks

Ok thanks. I've given them a call, hopefully they'll resolve it tomorrow. I mainly would like to schedule charging from time to time, I think it'll give me that functionality.

Had a PodPoint installed today...it's connected to the wifi...the installer said it'd take a couple of hours to register on the app. When I add the serial number into the app I immediately get an error stating the attached. Anyone have experience of this?

Do you know what date in mid Aug? I ordered 15th Aug.

Picked up yesterday afternoon. Appointment was at 3pm, got taken to the car around 5:30, there was coffee and cookies and limited seating. The car was quite wet (there'd been a massive downpour) and the handover was polite but quite rushed. Interior mats were still wrapped in plastic in the...

I'm collecting tomorrow too, received a text with my reg no about an hour ago. Hope you get yours soon

Really? I thought none of them came with any mats. What about boot and bonnet liners?

Clashes with my podpoint installation... I think I'll reschedule that one

Just got the email, 27th September 3pm Heathrow :)

If I have a car by then!

Just ordered... Will post a review in a few weeks when they turn up

Found a wireless / USB C solution... Any advance on this? TapTes Wireless Charging Pad for Tesla Model 3
