Last night. 7pm. A34. Driving south on a quiet A34. Suddenly an oldish Audi A5 undertakes within a few inches of my nearside (which is when I first noticed him), pulls in front of me and brakes. Fortunately I didn't hit him. He them remains at a close distance as if waiting for my response. I...

Hi, Looking at the warranty small print 10. EWI Limitations and Exclusions Vehicles that were not purchased directly from Tesla accompanied by a New Vehicle Limited Warranty, or vehicles that have been labeled or branded as dismantled, fire-damaged, flooddamaged, junk, rebuilt, salvage...

Hi, The front hood on my 2017 MS needs to come forward by a couple of mm. It's bugged me for a while so I did a search and one guy managed a great job on his M3 by removing the struts and then making the adjustments. I was wondering if anyone has done this on the S as it would be good to know...

Hi, Just wondered if any one has taken this out on their S or X? My S is coming out of the bumper to bumper warranty in a few months so I am considering it. I thinks its in the order of £400 for 1 year. Spanish

Hi, Just wondering if anyone has used these guys before - link for colour matched paint in a can. I have a gash on the plastic trim that sits at the end of the lower side-skirt trim on my Model S. Its not visible unless you kneel down, but I know its there so it bugs me. I figure I can remove...

Hi, I need to disconnect the 12V battery on my late 2017 MS90D, and according to fixmytesla I should also disconnect the firemans loop connector. When I looked today it looks like I can disconnect it, but reconnection looks difficult due to very poor access to the connector lower half - its...

Hi, Has anyone managed to do this *safely* without the use of a lift. If so how much did you need to raise the front wheels by in order to get good access, and how did you do it? I am considering making a simple ramp from solid pine that will provide an extra 10cm of clearance, and was wondering...

Hi, Just pulled the frunk today on my recently purchased '17 90D. I am glad I did because it was both an eye opener on to the condition of the car, which was OK I guess, but also exposed a few potential problems. 1. The flimsy plastic clips that hold the plastic trim piece to the air intake...

Hi, Just removed the plastics from around the frunk area to give my (new to me) car a good clean. Turns out two of the trim pieces had broken tabs and TBH they look pretty flimsy so not surprised. There were also a couple of missing plastic rivets, but Ill probably just buy a few off of ebay...

Hi all, Just picked up my new car today. My first Tesla :). Very happy, but have some questions. 1. There was no tow hook in the frunk and I cant find anywhere to plug one in anyway. Does this car come with one? 2. What is the recommended break-down service (just thinking ahead JIC)? 3. Is the...

Hi, Just checking in a smart meter is mandatory prior to UK EV charge point install, bit of a pain if so... Thanks Spanish

Hi, Advice needed. I have just bought a Dec 17 90d with full AP and PP. Prices was good for the UK. Problem is it turns out the passenger side rear quarter panel has been repaired at some point (7/10) but the paint is 2 shades darker than the rest of the car (silver). You can see the blend in...

Hi, About to buy my first Tesla - a model S 2018. Totally ignorant about what do I need in terms of apps / accounts etc to get going. i.e. 1, Supercharging 2. Watching Netflix 3. Service centre etc. Many thanks in advance Spanish :)

Hi all, New to the forum so Hi :). I've been reading this forum for a while now and have picked up some great tips on what to look for / avoid. So, I went to look at a car today - my first viewing with the possibility to purchase. It was a 75D with 27K miles built Sep '18 so MCU 2. So far so...
