I'm getting the same figures. Coming from an early 2020 SR+ I am getting a similar range to the EPA on my new car of 248 miles as I have the 19" wheels. My old car was pushed to achieve anything close to 190 miles and fully charged to 220. A drive to Manchester from Leicester and return left me...

Tesla do things differently from others with the guess o meter. The car always displays its EPA tested range when charged, that is pretty fixed. They have to sell the car using the ridiculous WLTP test results that were designed I'm sure by the manufacturers just to make cars look good. Just...

Had one for a while now. Lost it for a week then it or another returned. Delivery either on 9th March if collected or 11th March to my house. Prefer picking it up.

If you look at where the cameras are on the windscreen, they are in the place least likely to suffer poor vision as the air is moving fastest at the top and tends to be clear when I can't see! Dry wiping is another pi$$ take with constant wiping when its not required. Can't the supposed AI note...

This was Trafford yesterday, I arrived to it virtually full of just Teslas at 3:30pm but as I was leaving at 4:00pm we were descended on by dpd vans and a VW. At least the vans only took one bay and are probably evening users compared to the VW that took two. If Tesla are going to open SC's to...

I had a VIN and Reg number with a 6th March delivery to my address. Now no VIN but still have a Reg number and been messaged that the delivery is now the 11th March citing logistic issues. After messaging back that I'm happy to pick the car up, they have advised the 9th March at a (New)...

The problem with the Model 3 steering rack is that it is very quick and not much over 2 turns lock to lock hence very heavy when stationary. Old non power steering was far more turns lock to lock and indeed most are like that even now. My brothers Leaf steering required far more rotation when...

I have always wondered why the battery is designed to allow water in after being submerged as its so easy to ensure it doesn't. Quite simply, a narrow vent pipe could run up high enough so that any chilling of the battery from water immersion only draws air in from above a decent level. At the...

Quoting my own post, The ship my car is on is almost certainly Morning Carol which is currently passing Indonesia and ETA Southampton 1st March. Been given a 6th of March delivery.

I now have a VIN and ETA of 10th - 25th March. Can't see a Southampton ship fitting the date but G Poseidon heading to Zeebrugge may trans ship to the UK.

Direct line were £625 last year and wanted £1,030 this year. Haggling and minor changes plus adding a driver lowered it to £850 but very similar from LV which included European cover (not on DL) is £720. :)

I just completed the second filter change sourced from Amazon on my early 2020 SR+. What with that screw high up under the dash just waiting to fall into Never Never land under the carpet and the impossible space to slide in the filters not to mention knocking all the gunk off the old ones in to...

The range on the Tesla site is WLTP which is calculated in conditions that the car manufacturers love, the car shows US EPA which is a better calculation. As a Model 3 SR+ owner of four years (45,000 miles), all I can say is don't sweat about the miles shown on a fully charged car as your range...

My October order has a VIN at last. ETA now 10th - 25th March. Any idea which ship that is?

Hence my updated ETA is between 7th March and 24th April despite ordering in October. Must be an unusual spec I picked. So its on Morning Carol or the April delivery.

I really hope so as its unsafe with the long delay we have at the moment. Some AI to need 4 seconds to determine if a red/white light is sensed in front.

Do you realise that SEXY (enhauto.com) are developing levers? I think they will sell heaps of them. Yes it will be an additional cost but if Tesla had added £500 to the price of a Highland Model 3 and kept levers, would anyone have noticed?

I ordered in October an M3H with tow bar and my ETA has been changed to March/April. I thought it was because of the tow bar but maybe not now. I wonder why so late?

That's nothing, I ordered in October and my delivery has changed from Jan/Feb to 7th March - 24th April! 😕

I use the tow bar at least once a week so no good for me. Odd that they offer to retrofit as they haven't before although it may be due to being tow electrics ready.

Wow, just seen my estimated delivery change to 7th March - 24th April! I ordered in October. Must have come up with an odd combination as its certainly not white and has a tow bar! I tow almost every week so not an option not to have it.

I understand the RWD 3H has 9 speakers against the 14 in the LR. That is two more than the SR+ I believe. The Hansshow premium system added a sub woofer with its own amp in the original Tesla mounting position and supplied two more better quality speakers to replace the rear parcel shelf...

TBH, if I can't get on with the buttons on the steering wheel, I will get the S3XY buttons levers as its the car I want and they do a very professional job. My present car is an SR+ and I added the Hansshow premium sound system for around £700 to bring the sound to concert level. I'm hoping the...

Is Bess likely to be carrying RHD Teslas for a Feb delivery as I don't have a vin yet despite ordering in October.

I ordered in October and still no vin so we just have to wait. Keep your eye on inventory after the boat has docked. That's how I got my existing car in 2020 as I don't think they are hot on matching orders with stock.

I also agree completely. Purchased my car in early 2020 and its worth around 50% of original value if sold privately or over £5k less to WBAC. Is that worse than a £40k ICE? Having no interest subsidising their profits and now that I have an M3H ordered, I decided to swap the car with my...

Same colours as me. I added 19" wheels and a tow bar so expecting to be right at the back of the queue if at all on Titus despite ordering in October.

My EDD has never changed from 8th Jan to 25th February. Ordered in October.

Late to this thread but I have been running my SR+ on CCS2's for a year or so now and can't see any negatives. Might be a touch noisier round town but at speed they can't be heard. Definitely wearing better than the originals which lasted around 14,000 miles on the rear. I changed all four at...

I ordered in October and haven't seem a vin at all. Plenty of time for someone to go through the Titus shipment and allocate it though. At least the dates haven't changed although being a present Tesla owner of four years, I do realise that means nothing! :D My order of blue RWD with white...

I told her to check the insurance first and it came at around £900 for a 28 year old. Zoe was around £450! Probably helps that its an SR+.

I was offered £20,000 by Tesla for trade in on my 42,000 mile early 2020 SR+ a month or so ago. After trying WBAC and Motorway the outlook was worse and I doubt Tesla will hold that offer until my Highland arrives. Looking down the texts from WBAC the past year or so was illuminating. 11th...

Been driving my SR+ for nearly four years and still manage to mis-calculate my cold weather range! Never been that low before and reached home with heating still on but my brother who has a 24kWh Leaf said he would have had the heating off for the last half hour with windows open to stop...

My wipers trigger when I go under an underpass in Leicester. Never fails.

This caught my attention but not really taking over the Superchargers than buying the hardware. First paragraph mentions taking over the network. Usual appallingly inaccurate journalism! https://uk.yahoo.com/finance/news/asda-owner-eg-group-acquire-081304561.html Petrol station giant EG Group...

I have just ordered the new Model 3 to replace my 3 1/2 year old SR+ which has proved to be and is the best car I have ever owned by a long chalk. That includes a few BMW's and other "quality" motors. My only issue is with the RWD's sound system as I upgraded the SR+ with the premium Hanssshow...

Amazing range compared to my 2020 SR+ which has around 220 miles indicated at 100%!

As if they aren't already earning billions? BP's kWh cost should be similar to Tesla's surely as Tesla have funded their SC's from car sales in the same way that BP can. Its called "Investing" for the future but lets be honest, their hearts will not be in it and will only have put aside a...

Interesting that the new HV battery is listed as REMAN. I think that speaks for itself. Not an issue if repaired to a new standard using parts that are as good as new if these cells last as long as we are often told they will. Each battery pack will have a huge amount of data available to...

I have had an issue with the sound in my SR+ only coming from the dash speakers until I momentarily switch off bluetooth then on again. After I do that it all works as normal and Service/Support have informed me that it is a known issue that will be sorted from firmware .26 so I just have to...

More to the point who is Edie? ;)

I have noticed this the past few weeks but only installing 2023.2.* this morning. I installed a Hansshow premium sound system on my SR+ a couple of years ago (superb) and wondered if that was why the music often has a delay although the speakers under the dash always work. It has worked...

Any popular SC location with restricted power should have a decently sized battery storage attached to counter peak periods and to allow more Tomb Stoned to be installed. It would work like a power supply multiplier and trickle charge overnight.

I always understood the warranty was transferable but I suppose Tesla can make their own rules when they resell.

I get a little at each corner. BTW the new camera looks to be higher definition than the old one so well happy.

The Ranger (really nice guy) has just been and replaced the camera on mine. Also replaced the boot handle which I guess is part of it or maybe it broke during replacement. The car had logged a fault with the camera. £140 for the camera and £65 for the handle but FOC warranty.

My rear camera is working again at the moment but oddly wasn't all the time I was towing as I like to keep an eye on the trailer. Its pretty obvious that if intermittently failing, the inner core of the shielded camera cable which is probably solid on the cables with a yellow stripe will not...

My rear camera keeps failing regularly and re-boots do not fix it. Using the boot can make it work again for a while. I booked a service and was given a date within a week to a local SC, then told a Ranger would sort it on Tuesday. Now told they don't have the parts and now have an October date.

Ouch but the car must have been screaming at her. My reversing camera has failed due to the solid core cable fault known on older M3's which is due to be replaced shortly by a Ranger. It's surprising how much you rely on it and is scary when reversing in tight situations even with the beepers...

Maybe but if you see the first post, there is a video of the screen with phantom touch going on and probably has metadata to date it which shows the screen to be undamaged and why wasn't it noticed immediately when the car was received for repair. The screen rear shell is very tough and designed...
