Try putting really warm water in a sealed freezer bag and running that around the perimeter of the boot, once done it opens straight away. The same works for frozen handles, good life hack.

Let us know if that fixes the issue.

Hopefully you'll get it sorted soon. As wannabeowner said, try and see if anyone is nearby that would let you try their charger just to confirm it's the EO charger at fault.

Did it manage to charge properly last night with the circuit board disconnected?

Sorry to hear it didn't work, did you set the EO app to Charge Now and not Smart Charge?

I'm the same as you, the latest update fixed my intermittent slow charging. Hopefully the next update will fix the charger being able to wake the car up if it's sleeping.

Hopefully it works for you tonight. Switch sentry mode on before you go to bed, and see if it works using the charger as a dumb charger. If it does then you could use teslafi to wake the car up just before 12:30, and save the loss of energy using sentry mode.

That's what I do with my EO Mini Pro, just use it as a dumb charger, and it works fine. Its an issue with the Tesla that affects chargers, and not just the EO Mini Pro. I would do the steps I mentioned previously and you'll probably not have any issues. Test it with Sentry mode on, first...

Have you tried using the schedule on the car, rather than the EO Mini Pro? Set the start charge time in the car, and the EO Mini Pro to charge all the time. Remove the teslafi command to start charging, then see if this works. If this works then it's not the charger, it's the communication...

Shelf life is usually the life of the product when in its correct packaging prior to it being opened. Durable life or useable life normally refer to the life of the product once it's opened or in use. Could be wrong though, hence why I asked, in case anyone had bought it, and it told them the...

Quick question about the chipex paint, I see it says there platinum version has a shelf life of 4 years, but wondering if anyone knows what the life is once you open it?

Why not go untethered, it's looks much smarter?

I had the same issue today, except I didn't get a text message, the active phone call screen wasn't there. I ended up having to get the phone out my pocket to stop the call. Not a safe feature when driving. Everything works fine if the call is answered, the problem comes when no-one answers...

If you're in Scotland don't forget the EST grant (£300) as well as the OLEV grant (£500) when getting charger fitted. I got my car 19th December, so still getting up to speed. I'm doing roughly 15,000 miles per annum and I'm spending about £6 per week on electricity for the car. I used to...

You could make a few bob, selling the frunk hooks. Let us all know if you ever do start making them. Might take a punt on the boot hooks, thanks.

Can you do me some Frunk Grocery Hooks? ;-)

So I had the same issue as other people on here where my Tesla charged at 16A one night during scheduled charging. I have an untethered EO Mini Pro, so when I read the manual it said to make sure you input the charger into the EV first, and then into the EO Mini Pro. It probably shouldn't...

I've not had the car long enough to say either way, I would go with what Vanilla says. The main reason I put them on was to try and protect the paintwork on the lower sill.

I've already fitted the base or mud guards and they are simple to install. The back ones for really well, the front ones not so much, as they are a bit loose on the top part due to the fixing not being the best. If we get offered the kit free I'll swap out the front ones and will be very happy...

Just seen this from Motherfrunker on YouTube, looks like it's just the front Mud Guards you get. He also shows a, not very good, installation of one of them. Here's the link.

I have the same setup, and the workaround I have at the moment is to leave Sentry Mode on. This stops the car from sleeping, so when you schedule your start and stop time in the app, the car is awake and will start and stop charging as per your schedule in the app. The negative to this is that...

Apologies all, not sure what happened as I didn't see Adams response to you. Just ignore my pm.

Perfect, thanks.

Good to hear, I'll probably order it as well. Do you have a very rough timescale?

Just sent you one, in case you don't have one yet. Let me know if you've any questions.

Yeah its 3M 1080. It says its 3M 1080 on the website and thats what was on the back of the wrap. It feels really strong, that was part of the reason for choosing the Carbon Fibre wrap as opposed to some of the other satin ones. Some of the videos I've seen of the satin ones, it marks quite...

Just took delivery of my centre console wrap from Nikola Pro today, ordered on 16th December. I've been looking to see which wraps are decent quality and are easy to fit. I can highly recommend these if anyone is still looking for some. They are $19.99, all in I paid $27.99, which works out just...

Thanks all for the responses, good to get it confirmed that it's charging at 32A. I can manually change the figure to 32A but it doesn't change anything as it's obviously at the max charge.

Quick question related to the above. In the image below is the car charging at 16A even though the above says 32A/32A? Sorry for the poor image quality.

I did a soft reset and it didn't get any better. It's a software issue and probably won't get sorted until the next release. I don't understand how Tesla can release software that obviously doesn't get tested before it's released. I think I'm going to go back to standard software upgrade...

I'm the same, most of the time, although it did pick up what I said once or twice, but still didn't recognise the command. It's obviously a software issue rather than hardware.

Good to hear, fingers crossed it works ok tomorrow, as it'll be it's first charge.

I've just went with the EO Mini Pro, due to the aesthetics, it was thnly one the other-half said didn't look too bad. Get my car tomorrow so can't comment on how good or bad it is yet. Here's a few pics from the install.

Let us all know how you get on tonight, as I was hoping, that by using sentry mode the scheduled charging would work fine.

Ok thanks for the confirmation. I think if I'm only going to charge using the cheap 5p tariff then you could probably bring the yearly cost down to £70-£80 a year, or around £6 a month. I think I'd be happy to pay that knowing that the sentry mode is watching my car 24/7 all year round. Will...

Quick question from someone that doesn't fully understand this stuff. If you leave sentry mode on, would you need to worry about the M3 having to wake up, or is it already awake due to sentry mode being enabled?

Keep your fingers crossed, with Tesla you never know what's going to happen.

Perfect, thanks for confirming.

Yeah I'm the same, not told many people just in case it changes, not sure why but I get the feeling things will change the nearer we get to the 11th.

Hey Toro Looked at these wiper blades and when I put in the make and model it says these don't fit? Did you have to buy anything else to make them fit?

Stew What time are you picking up? I'm the same date as you in Edinburgh at 11am?

Davey, I was told by my lease company that they had been told by Tesla that I would have a pickup date before the 22nd Dec, so I called Tesla straight after being told this to see if I could get an exact date. This was around 10 days ago, and was told the same thing as you, mid Jan for my...

As I'm switching over to Octopus, I've been looking into things, I've just found this YouTube video about some new options to the Go tariff. Looks like they are starting to offer 3, 4 & 5 hour slots of cheap electricity with starting times of 8:30pm, 9:30, etc up to the normal 12:30. Here's the...

Thanks

Looking to move to Octopus Go, could someone PM me their referral code? Also does anyone have in experience of lead-time to get smart meter fitted in South/West Scotland?

For me it's all about ease of use and whether they stay looking fairly new. If you have kids and they are bringing dirt in on their football boots, or spilling blackcurrant juice or coke etc, it's going to mark the carpet mats. Rubber ones are far easier to maintain, just spray with your...

Thanks

Have you been over any speed bumps since fitting these? Do they bend if you catch them?

No bother, glad you got the discount. Not sure but I think if you go into chat you might get a code there.
