    Charging onboard ferry Kiel - Oslo

    In a couple of days we will board the Stena Scandinavica for our holiday to Sweden / Norway. Does anyone know if Stenaline charges the kwh’s above the €25 reservation fee? I can’t find this information anywhere, but in the Terms and Conditions it says to download the Chargenode app. Moreover...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    To add another annoyance: Last week it was mildly snowing. Tesla disabled TACC because the radar was blocked. Which left me with nothing but my right foot.

    Loud sound after BT audio

    I use a Dutch app called ‘Flitsmeister’ that emulates a phonecall to let me know there is a speedcam. The only way i can hear the audio over the car speakers. After each message, the volume spikes very loud for 1 second. Why is this not solved after 2 years??

    The Cancer that is Phantom Braking

    Here in The Netherlands it’s 2 things: - an overpass or sign hanging over the highway; car drops speed rapidly, then accelerates again. Seems to be worse when cloudy (darker). - exits, even where 2 highways meet. If I’m driving 120kph where 100kph is allowed, the car will drop to 110kph when I...

    Set delayed charging from app

    Every Monday night I have to go into my car to set delayed charging (100% leave at 5am) because I have to make a long trip the day after. I cannot believe I’m the only one who finds this annoying! I don’t get it. What’s holding Tesla back from adding options like delayed charging to the app...

    Great. An easier way to see dashcam movies. Useful when I finally get rear-ended when my M3 decides to brake for no reason again.

    New Tesla? Nope, never again! Cherry Hill Tesla the worst.

    Another reason not to go Tesla: Elon choses to keep existing costumers waiting for parts, but keeps selling cars. Cracked my M3 windshield, it’s been almost a month now and still nothing, not even a possible arrival date. Expected more from a car in this price range. Where German carmakers...

    Me too. It's gotten better but nowhere near 'set-and-forget' (Netherlands).

    2020.8.1

    Point made. Customers working around a flawed system is not a finished product. This goes for TACC and the wipers. Tesla hunted down every penny and in that quest they made the decision not to add a 2 dollar rain sensor. That backfired. Now deal with it and stop focussing on adding gimmicks.

    2020.8.1

    Obviously Tesla doesn't care and goes on adding gimmicks. Well, back on topic.

    2020.8.1

    Well that sucks ;-) I can get over the change in driving style. It's the random braking that makes me use my right foot instead of Elon's wonderful features.

    2020.8.1

    Having a car that phantom-brakes is not me asking to go backwards in technology. It's me asking to have an option that works and does not scare the crap out of myself and my passengers. Same goes for the wipers. A manual button is not a replacement for non working automatic wipers. What i mean...

    2020.8.1

    Seriously, these updates... why not fix real problems instead of adding stuff nobody wants. - ability to choose dumb cruise control (mainly at night, the car still phantom-brakes often) - fixing the wipers which are actually dangerous not coming on in time - option to set a leave time per...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    Yeah, but that's just it. Take away the Beta features and your left with nothing (besides max speed somewhere deep in the menu's). No form of speed control. Usually companies will leave you with a choice whether you want to try Beta. With Tesla you really don't have a choice.

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    I'm with you on that one. When high speed cruising (in a hurry to get somewhere), the gap that TACC leaves (even with the setting on 1 car lenght), is too much. The response you'll get is 'hey thanks for leaving a gap, i'll take it'. Moreover, the car in front won't move to the right because...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    I like driving to much to have Autopilot take over. But that’s just the steering, I can do without keeping the car at a steady pace. I can’t understand why Tesla would have some cars with NCC and some without. Great to have TACC as an addition, but why strip an option that’s already there? Even...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    Well they are forcing me to use it actually. It’s either TACC, or my right foot (whilst constantly checking the speedometer). Gets annoying when your driving long distances. If TACC is not usable in my country because roads are too crowded, it leaves me with nothing. My 12 year old BMW has NCC...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    This surprises me also. A ‘Beta’ feature should always be extra / optional in use, not something you are forced to rely on.

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    In some, more crowded countries, TACC will never work. Well it will, but the Tesla will brake heavily every time someone throws his car in front of yours. That's not a comfortable ride. This weekend I drove the car in pouring rain on bad tarmac (standing water), experienced heavy braking. I...

    Poll: TACC vs. Normal Cruise Control

    TACC and Autopilot will probably never come out of Beta because of legal issues. That being said, they still need some work, so Beta is probably the best way to describe it. What's your opinion?

    Feature Request: Set Dog Mode from phone

    I can turn off Dog Mode through my iPhone, but why can't I turn it on? We do training with our dogs, where they have to remain in the car at first. (at that moment we are within 20m) When I forget to turn on Dog Mode, I have to go back to the car to turn it on, or the alarm will sound. Having...

    Phantom braking is the biggest issue with AutoPilot.

    This weekend on a weekend holiday. Pouring with rain on bad tarmac. Serious braking when the Tesla detects hydroplaning. Very nerve-wracking and dangerous. Braking is the last thing i'd want to do in that weather.

    Feature Request: Charge Time Window Settings

    On top of that, give me daily setup options. I make a large trip on Tuesday at 5 AM. The rest of the week it's 7.30u AM. Would be great if i could set the departure time per weekday.

    Phantom braking is the biggest issue with AutoPilot.

    @Kitfox: Do you work for Tesla? You’re trying really hard to declare us all nuts, but I can assure you, this is a problem many are experiencing. I don’t use Autopilot, only TACC, and had the car brake twice under overpasses in different locations. Luckily I was in the slow lane, and there was no...

    Phantom braking is the biggest issue with AutoPilot.

    No I do not have footage. But there is footage online that shows this flaw. It’s more than ‘a few’ drivers having this problem. And there is no law here that states i have to slow down. What i normally did with my ICE car, was cancel cruise control and let the car slow down by itself, then...

    Phantom braking is the biggest issue with AutoPilot.

    Still having this issue, heavy braking before an overpass / bridge. Tesla has to understand this is just dangerous. It’s been 2 years now. Tesla is selling massively in other countries now. But these countries have much more congested traffic. I for one cannot turn on TACC where i live...

    Most requested features/options/improvements for the Model 3?

    Here’s another: Multiple pin-codes. This would solve the profile problem where my wife approaches the car first, when i’m driving. If she has her own pincode the car can use this to know who is in the drivers seat.

    Most requested features/options/improvements for the Model 3?

    First request: Normal Cruise Control without Traffic Awareness. Preferably with steering wheel button support. Set, Cancel, Restore. Using the buttons is less effort than using the stalk. TACC is a great addition but for Dutch traffic, 80% of the time it cannot be used (too crowded, too many...

    Op reis naar Noorwegen met de Tesla

    Goed om te horen! We zijn 2 jaar geleden ook geweest. Eerste keer dat ik terug wou naar een bestemming. Kan daar natuurlijk niet meer aankomen met m’n stinkdiesel ;-)

    Op reis naar Noorwegen met de Tesla

    Ik krijg hopelijk nog dit jaar m’n Model 3, maar de vakantie naar Noorwegen was al geboekt. We hebben wat huisjes onder Trondheim, waar de Superchargers dun gezaaid zijn. Kan ik met de UMC opladen bij vakantiehuisjes, of loop ik dan tegen het ‘neuter’-probleem aan? Vrouwlief heeft nu al...
