    Buyer benefit from using my referral code

    I persuaded a buddy to buy the new M3 Highland. He's very happy and I asked him what he received from using my referral code and as far as he can see it is just 100 Supercharger miles. Is it really so little? I know I received 7500 credits but thought he would receive something a bit more valuable.

    My buddy is really trying to buy a Model 3

    My friend went to the Tesla Westfield shop in London yesterday. Test drove the Model 3, loved it, ordered it, went home. He then tried to complete the order in the app (which is a requirement) and found out, for some bizarre reason, the app thought he was buying as a company and needed the...

    Saggy steering wheel

    My steering wheel “leather” is becoming a bit saggy under my left hand. Like an air bubble. Has anyone else had this? Would it be covered under warranty as car not yet 24 months old?

    FSD Invoice after OTA Upgrade

    I upgraded to FSD using the app a couple of months after buying my car (in May 2020) and received an email saying I had upgraded but no invoice. I just logged into my account and looked in the Glovebox but it is not there either. Is it just me or is it weird you can spend thousands with Tesla...

    How do I know if the range is now longer?

    Probably a stupid question, but as the new M3’s have longer range do existing ones and, if so, how do we know the range is longer?

    FSD price increase this Monday

    Elon just tweeted that because the new FSD beta is out the price for FSD will go up $2k on Monday. https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1319164198241341440?s=21

    Taptes wireless charger tripping out

    I bought a wireless charger for my M3 and use it with a Samsung SSD. It’s fine when I just charge my iPhone but if someone puts their phone next to it to charge they both stop charging and I need to reboot the car before it will charge my phone again. Anyone else have that? Anything I can do...

    New car - what's this orange sticker?

    Hi My buddy just collected his new M3P today. He curbed the tyre within 30 minutes so that must be a record. Anyway, I was showing him the frunk and I noticed this label near the washer bottle filler - it seems to indicate a tool has been left inside - is that what it is? Thanks

    Friend Just Ordered a M3P

    I just returned from an Old School golf weekend in Deal. Out of 24 people attending, three of us had M3's and one had an old Model S. One of the guys asked us about how we liked our M3's as he was thinking about changing his Range Rover Sport which he never really liked. He had been pondering...

    Model 3 Efficiency Improvements?

    This is an interesting article on Teslarati: Tesla Model Y efficiency exceeds early-production Model 3, data shows Sadly my Model 3 is 2020-H1 so it doesn't really benefit but if the article is correct very recent M3's look to be over 20% more efficient. Can that be right? Surely the range...

    My aircon seems to be misbehaving

    Does anyone else have this issue? I have it set to auto at 19 degrees centigrade but the fan speed is really low. I need to turn it down to 16 degrees to get some cool air to blow. I have tried a soft reset. It has worked fine before but more recently is doing this. Maybe a bug with the...

    I love the Tesla Acceleration

    I am 4 months in and the joy of the acceleration is not wearing off. My previous two cars were a VW Sharan Diesel and a Toyota Avensis Verso so this is a new experience for me. I admit I have turned into a bit (lot!) of a middle-aged boy racer. So far I have been overtaken at 95mph by a white...

    Tesla stock price $1733 13 July 2020

    There seems to be no end to how far this stock will climb. I have been waiting since $750 to buy some but want to buy on a dip and it never dips! I own and love my Model 3 but it seems like the whole investment world is waking up to Tesla and the shorts are being burned. I guess it must be a...

    Directline insurance FSD and Acceleration Boost

    I just called Directline to tell them I upgraded to FSD so expected my premium to go up due to the higher replacement cost of the car. But there is no increase. That’s nice. While I was on I asked about Acceleration Boost and how much extra insurance would cost for that. Again, there would be...

    Pedestrian detection - emergency stop

    I was driving in Islington this afternoon. I was going slowly (10mph) on a standard road as there was traffic. A pedestrian stepped off the pavement as I was almost halfway past him, his intention being to let me go past and then cross the road behind me. Perfectly normal and common pedestrian...

    Mercedes NVIDIA partnership

    Mercedes-Benz and NVIDIA to Build Software-Defined Computing Architecture for Automated Driving Across Future Fleet I saw this yesterday and it sounds like Mercedes accepting it cannot catch Tesla. Without vertical integration of software development with hardware they won’t innovate quickly...

    Almost burst my ear drums

    I'm a new owner and on my first drive for 6 weeks (UK lock down) I selected the radio and the instant volume was UNBELIEVEABLY loud. It really hurt my ears. It took me a couple of seconds to find the correct steering button to reduce it. Surely Tesla could have a safety level the music comes...

    Walk away door lock

    I have selected the walk away door lock option, but my M3 LR keeps toggling this to off every single time after the first time. Anyone else have this issue? I'm on version 2020.12.11.1

    Teslafi for car collection?

    I collect my car this Thursday (yay!) and I want to use Teslafi with it. At what point can I sign up? At the moment, naturally, the car doesn't appear in my Tesla app. It would be nice to have every single mile I drive on Teslafi and not miss the drive home from Brent X. I will use Mr...

    UK Budget 11 March 2020 - VAT Change?

    I just read that the Society of Motor Manufacturers & Traders (SMMT) is calling for the removal of VAT from all new battery electric, plug-in hybrid electric and hydrogen fuel cell electric cars – a move which would cut the purchase price of an average family battery electric run-around by some...

    Chargeplace Scotland - App or RFID card?

    I hope to drive up to Scotland for some golf during the year when my M3 arrives and I have downloaded the Charge Your Car app which works with Chargeplace Scotland but was wondering if I need to spend the £20 per annum for the RFID card too in case I am somewhere with no mobile signal. What...
