I'm going to add a second Powerwall 2 to my system in a few weeks’ time and the installer came around to do a preliminary survey. One thing he mentioned, which I regret not quizzing him further about, is that if there was a grid outage and it went into 'island mode' only one of the batteries...

I've just ordered an additional Powerwall2 for which I was quoted £7700 (inc VAT). The installer has just contacted be to say it's highly likely that I won't need to pay the VAT on this due to revised Government guidelines (see below). So, if it goes through, £6417 for a Powerwall2 second...

A few days ago, my Powerwall 2 starting showing as ‘unavailable’ in the app and reporting 0% charge and not supporting the house load. I know this is untrue as it was at 43% previously and we are currently away and the house is using very little energy. Being away also means I can’t perform any...

Today, my Powerwall 2 is showing as ‘unavailable’ in the app and reporting 0% charge and not supporting the house load. I know this is untrue as it was at 43% yesterday and we are currently away and the house is using very little energy. Being away also means I can’t perform any sort of...

£350 rebate for Powerwall installs between 11 August 2023, and 31 December 2023. I'm getting mine on the 30th (hopefully):D Powerall rebate

As my Model 3 is coming up to 3 years old, I decided to get some routine service done on it. I made the service request on Saturday and got allocated a slot on the following Monday morning, two days later. I had requested: - lubication of brake calipers - change of air filters - test and...

My Model 3 has developed an annoying fault in that the alarm sounds briefly when I unlock it (Android phone) and open the door after it has been asleep for several hours. Not good for my neighbours at 7 am. A reset doesn’t help. Anyone else have this problem?

When I put in a destination, navigation is just endlessly calculates the route or just stops. I‘ve tried a reset which didn’t help. The car appears to know where it is which suggest GPS is working. Is there an easy fix ti this which I’m missing? Thanks for any help.

I'm not sure if this is due to the colder weather but releasing my home charger cable in the morning is a struggle. I press unlock on my phone app, there's a click and the light goes white but the cable won't release. I have to wait until the release option come up again on my phone and...

It displayed the message ‘less energy available due to cold battery’. The battery was on 41% and didn’t increase at all during the 4 hours active charging I’d scheduled via my charger. I didn’t think it was particulary cold here in Wiltshire last night. In any case I thought the...

The paint on the outer sills of my Model 3 look like this in some places after 5000 miles. I'm a bit worried how it's going to hold up in the longer term. Should I be concerned and what are the best options for paint protection. Thanks.

Quite amusing on Carwow Model 3s drag race Is the Performance really worth the extra?

Tesla mysteriously removes regenerative braking strength option in new cars - Electrek I still have it as an option on mine (software 40.9). Anyone lost this setting yet?

So, I picked up the car (LR) on the 22nd last month at Bristol which was a largely positive experience. The car had just been washed and a guy was still screwing the number plates on while I was looking around it. The only issues I found were two doors slightly misaligned which I may get...

TIDAL music streaming service coming soon to your Tesla - Drive Tesla Canada As someone with a Tidal HiFi subscription, I'd love this to happen soon. I currently use Tidal on my main HiFi system with the Roon Labs player.

I have a long drive to reverse into and I wondered how the Model 3 rear camera behaved in low light conditions on the most recent models. Thanks for any feedback.
