    Always best to go in stages rather than big leap. But also if it ain't broke :)

    I suspect your mistake was not to change the references to stretch in the sources.list file, hence the mentions of stretch in your errors.

    9-10 and that was enough to upgrade docker to get Teslamate working.

    I did an in place Debian upgrade. Didn't need my backup.

    Is this Supercharger open to non-Teslas? Perhaps this screen only applies to Tesla only SuCs hence the calculation would be easier.

    Battery life...

    Let it drop to below 20% as per previous advice from me and others.

    Battery life...

    Try running it down to below 20% and don't charge to 100% very often unless you're going to be driving straight after the charge. IIRC the current guideline is to only charge to 80% normally and 100% only when on a trip. Lots of info about battery care in the manual.

    Battery life...

    What car? What type of battery? How Old? New/Second hand? The battery management system needs some good samples to get an idea of the full charge. If you only keep topping it up then you might need to let it drop to below 20% to get a more accurate measurement.

    Changes to Supercharging?

    Always easier to send an email to everyone in the hope a few people will buy membership than to try to target specific groups of people. It's pretty much been that way since email was invented :)

    Some Tesla owners have non-Tesla cars too.

    Changes to Supercharging?

    They don't normally notify you when prices are going up - or down for that matter.

    You can exclude specific chargers from ABRP if you want to avoid using one you don't like. Just click on the charger on the map and click on Avoid button in the details. You can always remove the exclusion if you are no longer trying to avoid that charger.

    MY LR Breakdown in France. 18 months old.

    You're foolish to assume all cars provide the same level of breakdown cover. IIRC my BMW and Jaguars had quite different levels of European cover. Tesla make it quite clear what they cover and what they don't. It seems people just don't plan anymore and would rather have a whinge on a forum when...

    MY LR Breakdown in France. 18 months old.

    That's the root cause of your issue. New things break all the time. Cars aren't any different.

    Tessories charge port remote

    Get some VHB tape - I'll bung an inch or so in the post if you want - it'll stick anything to anything. What sort of charger do you have? Always best to have things protected from rain when outside, so I wouldn't recommend sticking it to the top unless it's protected. Underneath or even on a...

    So… Highland is out…

    I don't disagree. I was just saying that there are a lot of people who don't even do that basic level of research or test drive. I was genuinely shocked that people would plonk down 10s of thousands of pounds without the most basic of research, but this forum proves otherwise.

    So… Highland is out…

    When USS dropped there were quite a few people who asked where it was and admitted they hadn't even had a test drive. See also EAP/FSD.

    Are our lights the same as US ones? IIRC there are different instructions in the service manual for EMEA and US lights.

    Take a look at the top selling vehicles in the US and then you can maybe see why they went the way the did: https://www.caranddriver.com/news/g43553191/bestselling-cars-2023/ Incidentally the top seller has been the top seller for 41 years!

    You'd best ask that question on the Github page. That's the 'official' home of teslamate. This thread is just a subset of teslamate users.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    I appreciate if you've had variable performance then it's hard to say if an update has made any difference, but when you've had 3 years of good performance and then they suddenly start to dry wipe, then it's unlikely to be a change in the weather.

    Tesla Alternative?

    Its an amazing colour. I'm a big fan of red, but the last Tesla red was mediocre at best. This one is stunning.

    My wipers definitely got worse a couple of updates ago after working pretty well for 3 years.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    If you want to be a real pedant, Teslamate gives the median not the average in the updates dashboard. The average is over 3 weeks so this update isn't that unusual. :)

    If teslamate wasn't connected to the Tesla servers for a period of time then you can't re-create the drives/charges. It records in real time. A drive is a summary of the positions table *. so while technically you could add in a drive to the drives table it would be pretty meaning less as you...

    Try it without the \ before the $1,$2 etc. I think the \ is just to prevent the shell from reading the $1 as a parameter.

    Thinking of selling

    Are you sure you can sell the car while the loan is still running? A quick google suggests that the loan becomes due if you are no longer the owner of the car. How they would know of course is perhaps another question. Re Retirement. My only regret is not doing it sooner. You could be dead...

    Thinking of selling

    Might want to take this to a separate thread, but you should put as much as you can into your pension as soon as you can. Bigger benefit obvs if you are a higher rate tax payer. And pray every morning that Liz Truss doesn't make a comeback :)

    New Highland UK - stalks

    He is on record complaining about the number of parts in the steering wheel. So either he is driving this change or some one else thinks it's a good way to appease his boss. I've also never met a capitalist who would turn down savings of $2 x 1.8m cars.
