Hi We had the MS in for a "radar calibration" and this resulted in them fitting a new radar bracket which I think involved taking some of the bumper components off. It got the cruise control working again but when we got the car back and opened the frunk the photos show what we found - the...

Model S nearside rear light cluster in full working order. 2017 vintage. This was swapped out last year under warranty as we had noticed an occasional condensation issue. To be frank the replacement has been just the same. These seem to go for north of £200 on certain auction sites. I would be...

First we lost bluetooth connections so my iphone was no longer recognise and today when easily within range of wifi the car just didnt see any network. Tried with a hotspot from my phone and just the same. Microphone also seems to be no functional. Tried 3 separate reboots of screen but still no...

We have this pack and after getting the car in the spring this is the first time I have welcomed it. I know how to operate the heated seats and steering wheel but is there a manual setting to switch the nozzle heating on/off? I cant find anything obvious in the MCU menus? I am curious because we...

For some reason the car now longer links to my iphone. I have tried to reconnect using the tips on the car screen including deleting the Tesla connection from the bluetooth settings on my phone and also a full reset of the MCU. Still no joy - the car scan for a phone but doesn't find it. Any tips?

We need to carry out our first MOT shortly. Can anyone recommend an independent garage with experience of handling Teslas? thanks

Without naming names someone has had the misfortune to receive a 90 euro French speeding fine for being a tiny bit over a 50kph limit. If not paid it escalates to a crazy 350 euros or so. Has anyone had a similar experience when they get back to the UK. It would be nuts to expect that they would...

Off to a campsite in France next week that has a 6A (I think supply). We have a 16A commando - 3 pin plug lead. Can I simply plug in the Tesla 3 pin charger lead into this and charge the car? I think I need to dial down the amps in the car - will this be to 16A or 6A? thanks

We are off next week and planning to stop half way between Calais and Annecy for the night. Can anyone recommend some good value for money accommodation ideally with a destination charger?

We are hoping to drive to France later this month. Has anyone got experience driving long distance with a roof box fitted? If so how much range does it sap? Same for (probably) one roof mounted bike although we may forgo that and hire. Thanks

It's been a while since I took a car to Europe - and that wasn't an electric one. I am trying to put together an essentials list to cover the standard stuff and then EV specific. I'd welcome any thoughts on anything omitted. 1 Repair kit. I have 2 tyre plug kits and a compressor. Does the Tesla...

It appears that you are automatically covered for third party under a UK policy when driving in the EU at least until the end of this year but is that correct? I am with Direct Line - any ideas on the cost of upgrading to fully comp for a 2/3 week trip to France? Thanks.

In just over 2 months of ownership we have now had 3 muppets hit our car while it was parked. The most recent was this morning and thankfully has only resulted in some fairly mild scuffing but of course they have just b*&*()£ed off without leaving a note. As I understand it our MS with its AP2...

Does anyone know if its possible to download a copy of the car manual to your phone to be able to use it offline as this could be a useful backup if there was ever something wrong with the car screen etc?

Hi having just bought the car and not read the manual fully I see that it appears to be important not to press directly above the latch when closing the lid. Looks like we have done this and when we open it pops up but is still held by the latch and wont open. If you stretch you hand in you can...

I have bought this and set up the SIM card and the online tracking. I am using it powered from its own battery so am keen to configure it to minimise battery use. I wondered if anyone else uses this tracker and has any tips on setting it up? Basically I think I need a fairly simple setup so that...

I tried to set up the former but the car doesn't appear to recognise the number I put in - I have a feeling that the PIN is still perhaps locked with the number the previous owner user? If that's the case how do I get access to change the PIN when the car isn't registered on the Tesla app yet? A...

Another first timer question - I have downloaded the App to my phone having previously registered with Tesla on their website. I tried to log in with the same log in details on the App and it is saying "Sign In Failed....There are no products linke to your account." Does this mean there is a...

Hi we have just picked up our first Tesla and had our first supercharger stop. I assumed that there was a battery capacity % figure that shows somewhere so you know when you have reached it and can drive on!? Cant see this anywhere. Can anyone help? A better route planner tells us we need to...

As per my heading does anyone know the answers? We are interested in a car for sale that has the AP2 hardware but apparently no EAP paid for. Can we pay Tesla to unlock this as a subsequent owner and if so at what cost? Thanks.

We are interested in buying a 2017 MS with AP2 hardware. The spec screen print the dealer has provided simply states "autopilot hardware" and nothing else ie no reference to EAP etc which I thought all AP2 cars came with. How can you check a particular AP2 car has the AP software enabled ie that...
