    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Octopus rates changed today so I've been trying to update my Cost per kWh in my home geofence using the UI. When I enter the new rate and click save, then continue to ignore adding retrospective costs to null charging sessions, the page refreshes and the change to the rate appears not to save...

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Waking up the car is done by SMS. This then activates LTE and any other radios for the cars communication. Its a good choice as you only need GSM, no data coverage, to wake the car remotely.

    Best European and UK Breakdown cover?

    I get my European breakdown cover through my Nationwide Flex bank account. It's £13 a month and includes very comprehensive European breakdown cover (for any car you're travelling in), mobile phone insurance for the family and also travel insurance...

    Car washing...

    One of the main benefits of car wash mode (3/Y) is that it closes the air inlets to the front cabin. When left open, water can pool in this area which results in damp cabin filters that go on to smell like old socks. Not sure if this same issue is present on the S/X. If it is then leaving the...

    After market rear screen install

    No. It comes on and goes off in sync with the main screen. When not in use yet the car is on there's a screensaver.

    After market rear screen install

    Hmm, I'm in the UK and was just able to add the item to my cart again. If you're new to Ali Express, make sure your currency is set to GBP.

    After market rear screen install

    Correct. Media functions are independent of the car with the exception that you can change the volume and skip tracks of the music playing throughout the car. The rear screen does have android auto and Apple car play is available to install however you can also run apps natively if you didn't...

    After market rear screen install

    Base price is slightly higher now that the sale has finished. During the sale there was a £10 off on spends of £100+ coupon and I converted some coins into another £2 of savings. It just cycles the lumber support up/down and in/out so pretty rudimentary. There are two strengths to choose from...

    After market rear screen install

    This project started out with the aim of replacing the USB A ports in the rear with USB C, so that the kids could charge and use their devices at the same time. I bought a harness upgrade from Ali Express for £6, and a replacement rear vent with USB C for £37. The replacement vent arrived very...

    Would You Buy a Tesla Phone?

    Yes... as long as it still had a cellular data connection. Connecting to Starlink when outside would be great, but don't want to be searching for QR codes to connect to new wifi networks when indoors away from home/usual places.

    [UK] 2024.14.x

    Sounds like our experiences differ. I'm on 14.9 in case there are changes in the incremental versions. I noticed the issue as the two items of information below the current speed limit would vanish in every other set of average speed cameras: I'd also be informed that I was exiting an...

    [UK] 2024.14.x

    Drove up the A90 the other day so got to try the new average speed functionality. Overall, It's a nice addition. Handy to see what you're current average is between the two cameras and the distance to the next one. It doesn't yet handle simultaneous sections of average speed cameras though. The...

    Possibly unrelated but would be good if someone could confirm my sanity... Upgrade to 2024.14.6 today. We've never used the glovebox PIN aside from as part of the valet mode function several months ago. My daughter put her phone in the glovebox today whilst swimming and when trying to open...

    Tparts data module

    Quick update on this: Ordered part 1111072-00-E from AliExpress (~£38) however it arrived with deep scratches. Looked at removing the internals from it to swap into my original part however it was held in with melted plastic. So returned for a refund. Got a quote from Tesla for an original...

    Fisker ocean - UK forum

    Thanks for returning with the update @stonecoldrmw. On paper, the Fisker Ocean has/had a lot going for it, it's a real shame the execution hasn't been good enough coupled with the chaos in the C-Suite. I hope that you can return the car without financial penalty and that you find an...

    @Blokie These aren't exact instructions, just what I can recall. Before running this, ensure you know how to revert if necessary. Alternatively, if you just want to revert to the previous working version of teslamate you can update the docker-compose.yml file, switching out the latest image...

    Tparts data module

    I suspect this has been covered already but if someone could be so kind as to tell me what I need to buy to upgrade the USB A ports in the rear of the centre console (for rear passengers) to USB C to allow for 3A charging I'd be very appreciative. Car is a March '20 Model 3.

    TeslaMate [megathread]

    Thanks! That was the case, actually upgraded from 18>22 😲 Wasn't smooth though, was failing due to some issues with the lxd client so had to purge that first. Now running latest Teslamate version and will try to remember to keep on top of these things in future! :)

    Trading halted at 9.36am (market time) today, citing 'news pending', not yet resumed. I think the pending news is their immediate bankruptcy and closure. Aside from the Nissan talks, they were going to raise $150m by selling convertible notes to an existing investor, however that purchase was...

    Have you tried restarting HA and seeing if that allows you to restart the configuration? Removing the integration and readding is also an option, as is restoring a recent backup. Failing that, it looks like you may be able to modify the config/custom_components/tesla_custom/const.py file to...

    Tesla Alternative?

    Check for "burglar" signs in the area, usually chalk symbols on pavements and walls. Unlikely they were looking for a water meter as it's very very rare for a domestic property in Scotland to have one. Water is not metered, instead you pay a fixed price based on the council tax band. You can...

    Just tried to view teslamate after a few days and received `502 Bad Gateway`. This was due to insufficient storage space having used up the 25GB allowance on my server. No data lost, which is good. `sudo docker system prune` freed up 10GB of space and my teslamate instance is now accessible...

    Decent MOT in the North East

    Also had an MOT at Kwikfit today. Passed with no advisories however they did provide a supplementary vehicle health check: Quite shocked that all 4 tyres are wearing evenly, will have to confirm that myself at some point. Probably should have told them that the spare tyre is kept in the loft :)

Top 2 send a text to speech announcement to select speakers around the house when their friends are at the door. Bottom 2 for lock/unlock the car and double press...

    I registered a new company but only got as far as estimating setup costs.We won a new contract in the other company so the dev team was too busy to take on the work. I see a couple of other companies ran with that idea anyway so I closed the new company down.
