    Had this summer 2020. Would not cool the car. Tesla did some remote investigation. The car went to sleep overnight and the fault code cleared. However Tesla booked it in for a sensor replacement. All sorted.

    Changing our shoes

    A solution to the low level jack is to use a small ramp to drive up on to to raise the sill height then any jack will do. An idea borrowed from a mobile tyre man.

    [UK] 2021.4.x

    Just a question , after an update do you do a power down reboot? I have made this my habit and I seem to get none of the after update issue people suffer from. My headlight don’t jump up, car unlocks with my phone, car wakes with the app and so on. I may be very lucky and the hardware/firmware...

    Model 3 2020 Wet boot

    I had a puddle in the boot. I raise a ticket and a ranger came along and replaced the boot seal. No more puddles in the boot. Even when opening the boot lid. Hope this helps. Mar 2020 M3 LR AWD.

    Mudflaps?

    Same here. Tracking shows the package data is available but nought else. Auto email response from Tesla but nothing since then.

    Poll for most annoying aspect of your model 3

    Raise a ticket. The mobile tech will come and fit a new deeper seal. Stops this completely.

    Water in boot!

    So mobile came today and replaced the boot seal. The new seal stands a lot more proud of the bottom of the rear screen so water should (fingers crossed) not overwhelm the seal and let water in. We shall see.

    Same here. Got a mobile service on the 29 Oct to look into this. I will update after the visit.

    Worried

    Thanks but no thanks. Use a lot of off peak electricity during the weekends. EDF has all day off peak not as cheap as Octopus but much longer hours. The calf’s work out very close. Cheers for the offer.

    Worried

    I picked my LR AWD 20 Mar from Stockport. The car had a 3 small scratches on the front and the boot needed to be slammed to lock shut. The rest was great. I did look at everything but found nothing else. The paint and boot lid were corrected by the SC it took a while but that’s the norm for now...

    Autopilot and lane keeping

    Yes leaning against the resistance and then indicating works very consistently. Thanks for the tip.

    Autopilot and lane keeping

    I will try the rest against the resistance tonight That sounds like it could be more consistent. That said I just got 36.10 so will see what that brings as well

    Autopilot and lane keeping

    it can be a bit hit and miss. Sometimes a short press will disconnect autopilot Bing Bong (TACC) remains on. Sometimes it take a full selection to disengage and Bing Bong. Steering against the resistance is quite a violent jerk. Wait for the Bing Bong.

    Private plates on Tesla Finance?

    There are numerous posts about private plates. The best anyone has done is the collection centre will make some plates up for you but nobody has got Tesla to put the plates on the car for delivery/collection. I did it myself. Wait for the V5 to come back then put your plates on the car.

    24 hours with the Polestar 2

    I agree the auto steer has better implementation on other vehicles. However, you have to Remember that Elon’s ultimate aim is full level 5 self driving and a work in progress not a finished product.

    New Octopus Go tariff and off peak options?

    Here is link to the EDF web page. The standar rate is 19ppKw and has a standing charge. I was attracted as I have an electric house so now we used the high power consumption items over night and at weekends. As well as charge the car when it arrives. EV: Options > Tariffs

    New Octopus Go tariff and off peak options?

    Hi. Still waiting for my M3. But being prepared I looked a cheap tariffs and found EDF. Never seen it mentioned here. 8ppKW from 21:00 to 07:00 and all day Saturday and Sunday. 96 hours of off peak power. Just a thought for high mileage users.
