    Octopus Smart Meter Experiences

    Still waiting after 6mths being with them for a smart meter install, and as you can guess, my monthly DD has went up over %25 compared to my old supplier. I would honestly give them a miss.

    Anyone had issues with DIY chrome delete with the cold weather?

    Hi, Looks like my chrome delete has came away a little round the mirror, guessing due to the cold weather. Should I just get the heat gun out and smooth it down again, looks like it has got caught a little on the mirrors when folding in and out (currently switched off the folding option)...

    Anderson A2 not charging, any one had similar issue?

    I managed to get an older model s to try and charge, nothing happened, so Andersen have sent out new internals, just waiting on an engineer to come and swap over. Hopefully this resolves the issue, it currently seems to be a fight between UMC and sentry mode to who will win the battery battle.

    Keyed!

    Can you get some sort of CCTV from your house/flat, that could be easily moved if you can't always park in the same place?

    Anderson A2 not charging, any one had similar issue?

    Connected the granny charger to a wall socket in the garage, and it is charging fine. I have read roughly something about sometimes tolerances are changed in updates, and the wall charger may be outside this and causing the issue. That is all I have to go on just now.

    Anderson A2 not charging, any one had similar issue?

    Got the kids to bed. This time I switched the charger off at the fuse for 10mins, and then let it reboot. Done the steering wheel buttons and brake reset, not sure if holding the brake does anything more. Let it boot back up. I plugged it in, it started, done nothing, then stopped, but this...

    Anderson A2 not charging, any one had similar issue?

    Thanks for the replies. It was last night it happened as I noticed the car had stopped at 76%, at the same time I done the latest update. Maybe it has different sync from a public charger, highly unlikely and just coincidence. I have done a car reset (brake and two steering wheel buttons), and...

    Anderson A2 not charging, any one had similar issue?

    I went to charge the car last night, and it was working fine, then I noticed it stopped at 76%. I had a look at the app and it said not connected, wiped app data and cache, then had to reset the app on th A2 and connect to WiFi again. Still not working, switched off the fuse on the RCD (reset...

    BMW iX3 is Coming

    I watched the carwow review earlier, and for £60k, it didn't impress. I like the Mercedes equivalent, but it still needs work.

    Andersen A2

    You get the back of wrapping the cable, easiest way I have found is to look in the top hatch and make sure you are wrapping it in the spaces, and not on top of itself, probably doesn't make sense, but similar to how you go back and forth when winding in a garden hose on a reel. You can close...

    Andersen A2

    Same as above, our charger is at the front of the house on the garage, and is one of the things you see first. We don't plan on moving anytime soon, so the extra £400 or so, wasn't a major factor. Anderson install was straight forward, the installer was on time, very tidy, took away all the...

    This surprised me - number of Model3 in UK...

    Tbh, I am surprised by them figures, the car feels common as muck, but possibly because I notice them more on the road.

    Model 3 isofix, do you use inserts, or just squeeze between the cushions

    I have a seat protector, so hopefully that will help protect it, and that it will be taken out a few times a week for 2 days at a time.

    Model 3 isofix, do you use inserts, or just squeeze between the cushions

    Our daughter goes to her grandparents, so the seat gets moved into their car, and then it gets moved between out two cars, so I was wondering the same. Thanks for the replies.

    Model 3 isofix, do you use inserts, or just squeeze between the cushions

    Youngest has just moved up seat size, and we have bought a cybex with isofix connectors, her brothers doesn't have this. On the other car (VW Tiguan) it has platic moulds and you can see the bar where it attaches, but in the Tesla it just has the buttons to show where you have lift the cushion...

    UK Black M3P with tints and chrome delete

    That was a great price, I have been working through the NP matte black, and for the extra £150 I would of preferred to get it professionally done. Can I ask where you got the logo caps, I haven't seen them before, and the decal I got sent just covers the top, you still see the chrome at the sides.

    Youtubers

    I have watched a few different ones, but the content always dwindles away. Richrebuilds sounds interesting, but I started watching whole videos with little content. Jmw has some short videos, but mostly daft stuff, which he kind of aims at. Matt Watson for carwow, and Rory Reid for autotrader...

    Chargeplace Scotland 50kw CCS??

    I am booked in for midday, my lunch break may be pretty long that day. It sounds like it will be a quick turnaround with this covid stuff, but being the first time I have bought an EV, and a brand new car, it is pretty daunting.

    Anyone else pondering Model 3 to Y when it lands in UK?

    In my head I am thinking of changing our tiguan for a Y in two years, so we have the three and the Y, that would be the reason I wouldn't change my 3 to a Y.
