Actually amazing the driver survived! Markup for safety!

I am on the Tesla website now looking at a model Y long range. Up front I did not have a very good model 3 experience with a car full of production / failure issues. I did however like the style and charging infrastructure. But now that I have a second chance to buy and at 6 foot 4 I was on the...

Competitors offer this feature already and as I am looking for an EV right now as things open up the thought of going camping and powering it with the car appeals to me. I wondered if there are any hints of this with the 3?

One of these at each factory and you are clean as 40 million trees each BOOM! + sell by products. + jobs created.

Seems to bring a few of the current clips together. Imo from observing this it looks like the car is now capable of much better situational prediction. It knows before turning off the roundabout in the dark what a lane of parked cars is and takes the left not in a rushed manor. I guess time...

For all pre heat pumpers out there coming into winter time. Press the recirculate (range boost) button for a % range boost on longer trips! I am not sure it gets simpler than that but it seemed to work looking at winter travel figures on SR+.

You see there I am researching into various new battery technologies and roll onto the total CO2 count for the production of a Tesla. Now this is where I am not sure the public are being told the correct information about ICE cars. You see an ICE car has a certain CO2 output when you drive it...

The simple last step and answer to most Tesla car owners dreams. Please take this one tip from VW.

The year is 2022 and still no one used a spirit level.

Its been a rather frustrating time owning a model 3. It was meant to be part of an enjoyable YouTube series which ended in me personally not wanting to poster something of bad quality. Yes I held back. I have documented here the cluster of a pickup experience with pictures and video in another...

So when you go to purchase your SR+ with a stated range of 240 miles do you realise that after the first full charge it will never reach that range again. First year 230. Second year 212. Before a level off this is the nature of lithium ion technology. But does the consumer new to the game...

We are in that same position now as I was buying my 2019 Model 3 from the Tesla website last year. Knowing that as stated by Elon that the car would self drive by the end of 2019. How confident does everyone feel? You see if I look overall at what my car could do then in terms of AP FSD and now...

I watched this today and..... how the hell has Tesla not nailed this after 8 years? Why why why? P.s. those 2 white lines are ridiculously crappy atm.

First time in ages since I have done a 90% charge then switched to miles for a peek. Out of the original 240 my SR+ is rated for at 90% I have 209 miles of WLTP range @ 21c ambient temp. This would seem to represent just under a 3% range loss for 5690 miles at 9 months old. My thoughts on this...

From 47 seconds since 1991....

So its a rather hot topic here and there now seems to be a clear report of degradation from the car via ABRP when connected to your Tesla with software version. I wondered if people would be interested is posting their cars stats up and see if there is a trend. I rarely super charge so 85% of my...

Take a look at this impressive solution to parking in or outside of your car. About the 9 min mark.

Morning all. Day before yesterday taking the car out for a short trip fully warmed up as us Brits enjoy some hot weather for once! I noticed whilst at slower speeds there seems to be more electrical motor whine. Now I am not complaining there seems to be nothing wrong with its function and its...

Holding down stuff is such a hassle. Power off is not a reboot....!

I think my model 3 was priced too high as well. I mean if you think about the build quality and the hassle of getting it all put right then 40K to not have a good new car experience is overpriced overall. Worthy of a diminished value claim coming with a corrective service list a mile long from...

In the SC waiting rooms there is a display showing fleet status. Is there a public link to that page about how much CO2 the fleet has saved and where they are all charging over the globe? It kind of zips to different parts of the world. I just fancy it as something on my wall office :D Or is it...

I would like to point out a fellow YouTuber series that is absolutely fantastic in explaining the current state of Tesla's car builds in the Y and 3. Munro Live Well explained and nothing held back, just Munro's expert view on almost every part of the cars. Personally I could instantly relate...

Awesome news! So will I get an option in the app to get my car resprayed? :) A lot to correct you see... Elon Musk on Twitter I think even cleaning out the robots once in a while might help with contamination issues. However how about this for your cybertruck! Alex on Twitter

The last handful of times I have been getting in the car to sit down I have felt my rear hit metal which I did not used to. At first I thought it was just a one off but on further investigation or at least it feels like it to me I can feel 2 bolts through the seat I did not used to feel when...

I opened the garage to get the lawn mower out and had to open the door and sit in the M3 for a second. But after 4188 miles and 22c warmth it seems to still be building up that lovely new smell inside it was... exhilarating. How is everyone else fairing?

To calm people who are on point this was an essential lift for work and it was only a 2 mile round trip, I did not get out of the car. Recirculate was enabled and I used hand-gel before opening and closing the car, touching the screen and once more before grasping the steering wheel with intent...

So unfortunately but then inevitable shutdown of the UK is now in effect. So like many of us the Model 3 needs some downtime. I will garage mine but am thinking to attach the slow charger that came with it, plug it in and store it at 70%. Think this is a good preference for a few weeks? Or is it...

Thought you all might be interested in this DÆrik video stream of what looks to be a very well built model Y. I think I would happily trade in my model 3 experience for this one. Looks like more room to sit too. You get to see the new heat pump also but I am yet to see if there are any...

This model 3 is the car that keeps on giving! So got out of the car this afternoon to see multiple areas of the glass warping / showing more flat spots. They also look out of alignment and are easy to push down on the outside with my fingers like seated on a soft pad. So does this mean I now...

I had an amazing trip in my Tesla to Scotland and will speak about it later. However on the way back home my screen was struck by an object while I was overtaking 2 trucks. I caught the object in my peripheral vision it looked like a bolt or large screw. It was about head height of my partner...

Out and about again and went to use YouTube and its seems out. Will just get no connection. Netflix works fine, twitch does as well. Tried full reset, half reset, holding finger on app icon to reset it. As a techie its as if there is service denied for this one. Anyone with some new tricks...

This is a fine looking car and with the auto closing boot and parking aids look superior to my model 3. The speed and mile efficiency well we will have to see on that. But its intertwined with the Ionity network and that is going to mean a very expensive travel experience at almost 3x the cost...

I am posting this to see if it is a common occurrence with these road markings or situation and maybe Tesla can learn from it. 70mph 4 people 3 woken up from it :D, car suddenly pulls hard to the left I grip and it gives to the resistance and put myself back in line. I did not indicate to turn...

I was interested in the heated seats but I don't think Tesla realise $300 is £230 in our money. That is a huge markup for a software unlock for people here. There are no extra delivery costs involved or shipping taxes? Come one give us a break with this for the all times we have to sort out...

The round trip was from Peterborough to Doncaster Airport 174 miles 2 passengers with me. Temperature range 3c there 2c back. Car charged to 100% and preconditioned for 35 mins before departure. I left with 99%. The car said I could do the round trip and be home with 12% charge arrival at the...

From the app could we have the ability to set the charge starting and finishing times? This would fit lovely with electricity tariffs that have a small cheap charging window that can be used daily to top up, keep the car in that charging zone? Also select if you would or would not like a...

So last trip + Overall pics, I drive this like whatever, no eco in mind with one pedal driving for most of those miles.

So shortly after buying my model 3 the first couple of runs were done with miles. I just wanted to see what I could really get before the real cold set in. So 220 ish was not bad I was not driving eco and ac always on. Then I decided to switch to percentage and plan my routes that way. I found...

Now I know the lines connected to the camera represent the rear wheels in my case the left one does not join the bottom like the right... But you have all that sensor information wouldn't it be great in 2020 Tesla do some updates to this so we can see more spacial relevant information of the...

Like a Mirror! Snow foam then rinse + Maguire's wash and wax carnauba then rinse and dry boom! Simple and for the winter maybe some ceramic spray to repel.

I went on a road trip to Birmingham in my SR+ started off with 96% charge by the time I unplugged to go and all snug and pre-heated (a feature I would never give up!) Now with a small detour around town the trip there was 90 miles and the software said I had 5% left if I was to come back the 86+...

Updated Christmas Day on my SR+ and got in the car today for shopping. First thing I noticed is the voice commands are broken and it does not recognise anything just comes up with the mic and suggestions. I tried a reset we sat there pedal down buttons in until the Tesla logo. Tried to navigate...

After one hell of a terrible experience with an Eniro 64kw new car failing me on a trip to france I dodged a bullet and rejected it. Long and agonising story short the car can go into a mode where it will not charge anywhere without alerting the user there is a problem and you can imagine...

So many understandable questions about battery usage. The answer: Your battery is monitored by a BMS ( Battery Management System ) this gives you a majority slice of the pie which is not down to 0% nor is it up to 100% of your battery. So the answer with the latest generation of cells and the...
