I had a similar problem where the car would say cable not connected. It requires that the pin in the car needs to be properly located in the hole in the top of the charge plug. Pressing the plug in, lifting at the same time and waiting for the 'click' sees the 'T' turn green. OK to charge. The...

Just checked on Whatsapp. "Savings Session Alert: 5.30PM to 6.30PM" "16th November" Use less electricity during the saving Session ---- power you save compared to normal" Unfortunately my normal consumption is zero. Batteries.

Mine is exactly the same although I don't have a split between normal light and raised portion. It highlights the footpath, but can shine at oncoming motorists when on a left hand bend.

Quote from the SUN at 09:44 today. "THE horror blaze at Luton Airport started in a vehicle with a diesel engine that had just arrived at the car park, a fire chief has revealed." He said: "We have no intelligence at this stage to suggest that this was anything other than an accidental fire...

You should have removed your info from the car when you returned it. Owners manual 'Erasing Personal details'. You can also remove it from the app but make sure that you are not being charged for any Supercharger use.

WOW £6+ per unit. Just change supplier.

The Imperial gallon is a unit of volume in the imperial system of units, where the US gallon is used exclusively in the United States. The imperial gallon is 20% larger than the US gallon. The gallon is commonly used to measure volumes of fuel for vehicles. Miles per gallon are a unit often used...

Is it possible that the boot lid hit/pressed against something when opening but not noticed at the time?

Model 3 Dec 2022. Hit by a small stone about 3" from top of windscreen. It the cracked to the top edge and then crept down about a foot. Connected to insurance web site, which asked was it an accident claim or windscreen problem. Clicked on windscreen and was redirected to Autoglass web site...

Don't bank on it, some curbs are deceptively high and vicious.

Before I had a battery I used the charger to take surplus solar but the car required a minimum of 1.3 kWh so dips in solar power or additional kettle, cooker etc it was supplemented from the grid. Now I use the Granny charger at a steady 10amps which the battery sees as a load on the house. The...

I did argue that the wording in the offer was ambiguous stating that "you will have 6000 free miles if you take delivery before 31st Dec". Their argument was that the free miles would be available when showing in the loot box Spent a good 10 mins discussing the wording but they wouldn't budge...

Don't try to use them before they appear in the loot box. I did in January and was charged for supercharger use. I took delivery of the car 24/12/2022,the free miles appeared around 4th of Jan.

As a regular gym user with ANPR system my registration in entered permanently by the staff so I don't need to do it every time. Why would I charge there when my home is much closer and cheaper? The Hotel is close to a M6 junction and car sharers were leaving their cars in the hotel car park. Not...

Traded in my old M3 RWD for new late December. (before price reduction) Still getting emails from WBAC which is now 10k less than I was paid. Resale started off at trade in plus 10k with Premium Connectivity. My old car is still for sale and it's now on offer for less than I was paid with 30...

You can do a test transfer of ~£100 then check that it appears on your Tesla account to ensure that it is going to the correct place (can take time).

On your tesla account the final invoice has the sort code and account number at the bottom of the invoice. Sort code 18-50-08 Account No. 17559860 There is no Text that is the IBAN no. not needed Include your RN number on the transfer so they know who has paid. Made my final payment in December...

Is the echo only when connected to Tesla or normal use? My sons phone suddenly started to echo. Shutting down and restarting the phone cured it.

Prior to trade in for another M3 RWD had curb rash removed at £60 per wheel. Done by WheelWizard on the drive. He only needed a power supply. Removed the wheel, tyre, cleaned up the rim, sprayed and cooked in his van. Replaced the tyre and wheel. Fast and efficient.

Had a similar problem. 30amps OK, 32amps tripped 32amp MCB after about 1 hour. Bought a new 32amp MCB problem solved. Dodgy 32amp MCB.

The app is free, links to the car and has many other remote functions and info.

Had a similar problem. It was caused by the washer tube on the drivers wiper rubbing slightly against the screen and depositing muck. adjusted the tube to sit more closely to the wiper blade.

Apologies

Are you sure the date format is not USA (01/07/25)

Charging at home, can here the pin trying to latch, lift the plug and latches OK. Unlatches with a little help. Charging at SC need to move the plug up and down until it latches. On an 8 stall site a couple unlock with assistance and others need to open the boot to pull release. No big thing.

3yrs ago within two weeks of owning my first M3 went to the opticians. Had a pair of bi-focals with the bottom third for reading at arms length, top for distance. Work perfectly when glancing at the screen to read time, percentage navigate etc, etc.

10:30 for me SMS says self service!!! 3 yrs ago we had a half our talk then given keycards 'go inspect your car' 'leave when your ready' Signed for on a tablet.

Didn't you get the free 6000 miles with your pick up??

Longer article on electrek gives what they believe is the reason in US (10,000 miles) "It has been years since Tesla hit 200,000 deliveries in the United States, which meant the company no longer qualified for the US federal tax credit for electric vehicles. But Tesla buyers are expected to...

Bought my M3 SR+ Dec 2019. Came with front heated seats only as specified. Later there was an offer to pay for heated rear seats. Paid the offer and 10 minutes later the rear seats were functional. The equipment is in the car and only needs a software change. Wont have to pay extra for it this time.

Tesla Purchase 2years ago. Part 1 Plastic Part 2 Rubber

In my experience the phone can only connect to the hearing aids or the car, not both. I normally get in and start the car then switch on hearing aids. The car seems to have claimed the phone first. Although if I am listening to the TV through a bluetooth connection an alert sound on the phone...

The consumption graph gives indication of how and when you used energy and where it was used. Not perfect but a very good indicator. In July I was achieving less than 200w/m currently can be over 350w/m quite easily. (Rain, wind, incline etc)

"Estimated Delivery: TBD Delivery timing will be available soon" Appeared in my account within the last hour. Changed from EDD 12th Dec to 27th Dec. Have had a VIN and trade in value for last week. This is my second so used to Tesla timings. Maybe Santa will bring it.

Sent updated odometer reading 2 Nov as requested. Trade in value received 11 Nov. £7000 below purchase price 3 years ago. Current price +£9500 so £16500 difference Waiting delivery date EDD still Dec 16 - 27

Bought one 2 yrs ago. Comes with nuts and a scissor jack. Had to modify the scissor jack to take one of the lifting pads. Also bought a torque wrench. I've always had a spare giving me the confidence. Have had a screw, and a spring clip on one occasion (fallen off somebody's brakes!!) Takes up...

I remember back in the late '60s a friend of mine bought one of the early Japanese cars. He had a problem with his steering wheel, unable to drive. It took 6 months for a replacement. This is the problem with 'foreign' cars, parts can take ages to be sourced. Still, am thoroughly enjoying my M3...

8 yrs ago my Jaguar XF had it as a choice. Speed Limiter or Cruise control.

Keeping a light press on the brake halts the car. Release the brake the car creeps. Hard press on the brake, foot off, holds the car. Press the brake again the car creeps.

It sounds like the weight of the cable is partially pulling the plug out of the socket causing the locking pin to bind on the hole. Lifting the plug and pushing towards the car may be sufficient to allow the plug to release.

My last Jaguar had the choice of Speed limiter or Cruise control. The choice was made via the menu. It basically changes the control of the car from computer control to foot control. Essentially giving control of speed to the driver and not exceeding Speed limit. Pressing harder to exceed the...

Had a similar problem on my previous Jaguar. It was leaves blocking the drain near the air intake, it would in fact be worse when turning a corner due to the water moving to one side.

If its just you in the car turn passengers temp to low, save fuel?????
