    Clicking thudding noise while applying brakes…,drives me nuts and been service centre twice and they can’t find anything wrong.

    I guess one way to test this would be to jack up the car, apply the brakes then try and move the wheel and monitor the pad for movement? Can you see the pads like this?

    Clicking thudding noise while applying brakes…,drives me nuts and been service centre twice and they can’t find anything wrong.

    The sound made in this video is not the same. The original post has a metallic click while applying the brakes and switching between forward and reverse. The noise from the video in your link happens when moving away and not under braking. I have the same noise issue as the original post which...

    Clicking thudding noise while applying brakes…,drives me nuts and been service centre twice and they can’t find anything wrong.

    I have the same issue with my 2022 MYLR. Been into service centre twice and each time they cant find the issue. I have the exact same noise coming from the front brakes. To me, it sounds like something is loose on the brake system as when you switch between forward and reverse then apply the...

    Powerwall 2 using grid power in Time Based Control mode

    After speaking to my PW installer their advise was to leave in Time-Based mode and let the algorithm do its job, and to be fair its actually got a lot better. The problem I found with self-powered mode was the midnight EV charging that would allow the battery to drain unless you manually change...

    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    Finally got the Park Asist software download in the UK for my MY. As expected, when there is a small amount of dirt or water on the rear camera the Park Assist is unavailable. Without any method of cleaning the camera itself this function for half the year is pointless. If you have to get out of...

    Powerwall 2 using grid power in Time Based Control mode

    I have a two week old Powerwall 2 running in time based control. The electric rates are all entered correctly with clearly defined peak & off-peak rates. However, when its peak times the battery is sitting in standby allowing power draw from the grid. The battery is charging fine overnight...

    Tesla Model Y Roof Bar Accessories

    Tesla have created some nice roof bars with the T slot fitting, but give no details of how you connect anything to them! If you want to connect say a bike carrier, which brand fits these bars, what system should be used etc? The instruction manual gives no further detail and the staff at Tesla...

    2023 Model Y no USS discussion, incl. Discussion of Tesla Vision Firmware

    I took delivery of my MYLR in the UK last week, and no USS! What annoys me is the total lack of communication from Tesla about this. You order a £57,000 car which is 2022 should have the most basic of features, parking sensors. Don't remove the sensors before you have a fully functioning...

    Model 3 Alarm Going Off When Opening Door!

    Telsa have carried out a remote diagnostics and are aware there is an issue following recent software update. They have suggested there should be a fix in upcoming update!

    Model 3 Alarm Going Off When Opening Door!

    I have the same issue on my 2019 Model 3, started about 2 weeks ago. Tesla has apparently completed a remote diagnostics and are aware of a bug from a recent update. They have suggested the fix will be included in subsequent update. Annoying as having to get the phone out and unlock vi the app...

    Model 3 Alarm Going Off When Opening Door!

    My Model 3 alarm has started going off when I open the door from the outside. I use my phone and Bluetooth to unlock the car and it seems there is a delay from the car recognising its been unlocked with the phone. The alarm sounds 3 times then turns off, not great at 6 am for the neighbours. Is...

    Corrective Steering Applied For Your Safety!

    For the last 2 weeks my M3 SR+ has been displaying the message 'Corrective steering applied for your safety' when driving the same country lane I do twice a day to and from work. Its a fairly open road with raised banks either side and the car now thinks I am about to drive straight into them...

    Emergency steering correction?

    This has started happening on my M3 SR+ since the latest update. Driving down the same country lane I always have on the way to work. I have felt some steering input from the car which feels pretty dangerous when I am actually in control. Is there a way of turning this off???

    Full beam annoyance

    I have only used the auto beam function a few times and its way too slow to react to oncoming traffic, the lights need to dip about 2 seconds earlier to prevent blinding oncoming traffic. My Mercedes as also rubbish at this and I described it as being arrogant and not caring about other drivers...

    How many of you still carry keys?

    Still carry a set of house keys. Still not convinced the keyless lock systems are safe enough not to be hacked. Carrying a small set of keys seems a small price to pay for not getting my house broken into!

    Unlock delay with iPhone?

    Has anyone else noticed a delay in the M3 unlocking with the iPhone in the last few weeks? On a few occasions recently I have gone to open the car with the phone in my pocket and the car doesn't unlock for a good 10 seconds or refused completely meaning I had to find the keycard. You look like a...

    Mileage displayed vs Trip display

    Thanks for all the replies. Would be nice to have the option to display both or switch between the different energy range displays on the front screen instead of having to dig into a sub menu. I am from Norwich in the UK and its currently about 3-5 degrees Celsius and we have had some strong...

    Mileage displayed vs Trip display

    Last night I had a 133 mile drive home. The was battery was showing around 170 miles of range on the home screen so I thought I had enough to get home. The navigation however directed us to stop at a Supercharger for 10 minutes and would arrive at the charger with 6% battery. Why does the...

    Left door pillar camera blocked or blinded

    Had my M3 here in the UK for a week now, after latest update I have been getting the left door pillar camera blocked or blinded message on pretty much every drive, both day time and at night. Camera is clean, no condensation or anything blocking it. Right side has been fine.
