The wipers finally work

Same experience here but my phone never used to get hot when charging. Makes me wonder what’s changed?

I got my rear done (oh er) and the guy I used persuaded me not to go too dark due to the heating filaments and known risk of it cracking. I took his advice and it’s survived almost 3 years now.

I’m also approaching illegal tread depth after 26k miles. Been so happy with PS4s since new so going for the same again as whilst there are cheaper tyres I think it’s a false economy in some instances. Also quoted £964 by Tesla so must be a set price I guess.

I’m confused is flexible the same as tracker? The unit rates quoted look higher?

I just trickle charge starting at 00:30 and wake up pretty early so usually end up turning it off by 4.30am or sometimes it overruns but 30minutes. However I have a spare Amazon smart plug and im wondering if I can set that instead so it’s on and ready in time for 00:30 and then it goes off at...

Ok thanks all I’ll login online to see what’s what. I just wanted reassurance that I didn’t need to change anything.

I’m so confused. I’ve just moved my tariff to Octopus Go and according to the app pay the following: 37.65p (dynamic unit charge) and between 4.30am thru to 00.30 I pay 40.13pkwh. Before I fixed there was a period of very low pkwh between 00.30 thru to 4.30am. That’s now disappeared. Have...

Interesting feedback. I used camp mode for the first time when it got to 40C degree heat here in the U.K. I found it a pleasant experience and only woke up in the middle of the night shivering due to setting the AC too high. I have windows tinted too which helps when it got light at 4.30am...

Same problem. I literally couldn’t wake the car using the app at all.

Hit me up with any advice as never done it before. Thanks.

Loving the holiday update overall although I’m slightly gutted I don’t have a boom box in my M3 to mess around with the voices. I like the new UI and the his and hers split for temperatures which even my wife now understands.

I take it we can’t change the music for the light show?

Phew! Now just waiting for my 25.2 update…

Hands up if you would rather be playing Sonic than seeing your in-laws on Christmas Day. I think I might just sit in the car instead.

44.6 also on the download, hopefully in anticipation of the holiday release!!

If one purchases AB do you have to inform your insurer?

Yep 36.5.5 now downloading. Not expecting to see much! Should I be?

I was toying with the idea of Uber in my spare time. Not sure I can handle the general public on my nice white seats though!

We've been judging books by their covers ever since and that's not about to change. I suspect the probability of boy racer types are more in the minority for Tesla than they are for other comparable priced manufacturers.

I will reciprocate if I see another wave in time. I tend to only proactively wave if I see another M3 in the same colour as mine - mainly just an acknowledgement on how good their taste is!

Frankly I wouldnt go for it even if it cost £500. Current software appears to be too buggy and that needs sorting first if they want more people to engage. Are they supposed to be FSD improvements ahead? Surely Tesla know how bad things are in their current state?

That's pretty poor. I would persist and possibly threaten to reject the car if you remain unhappy with it? You'll find Tesla may excuse some of the panel misalignment as 'within tolerance' which is not a valid excuse but just trying to manage your expectations!

Once lockdown is lifted, I plan on driving to the South of France. Ideally Easter would be nice, but think that may be premature based on the current state of affairs.

Agreed. I noticed the same. Soon as I disabled sentry mode the drain dissipated. I now try to remember to turn on sentry mode overnight only and disable when I wake up. I’ve seen lots of calculations and what not but I don’t have TeslaFi so would be interested to see extent of difference when...

YMMV but I took the supplied Tesla USB out shortly after collection. It seemed to record sentry footage but was unable to play it back. I've since swapped it for a Sandisk 120GB USB drive and it seems faultless so far. Worth trying a different USB, even if you have a spare one lying around...

I've never been a big fan of red, but somehow your picture manages to convince me otherwise. Looking superb. As a matter of interest how easy it was it to remove the dual motor wording?

Not a great collection experience for me with plenty wrong with the car. Misaligned frunk, driver door and boot (to the point it’s catching on the paint). No mudflaps although in my excitement i forgot to ask for them so perhaps that’s my fault. Scuffs on interior trim and also the window seam...

ok thanks will check it out.

Moderator comment - thread renamed from "Model 3 Refresh Accessories" For pre 2021 refresh and general RHD accessories, see also UK accessories for RHD Model 3 [megathread] Given that many folks have or are about to pick up refreshed model 3s this month can anyone pull together a good list of...

Cheers Sugei, I'll bear in mind with my trade-in.

That's pretty poor to hear about the trade-in dropping. I'm half-expecting it on mine and I think I've done about 200 miles since my trade-in quote. I've deliberately tried to keep the miles low knowing that they would try and knock me down on it but I guess the time doesn't help. I've also...

All good then. I've sent Tesla my settlement letter but it didn't appear to make any difference to the invoice. Anyway, it sounds like you're in a similar timescale to me. I do wish their payment process wasn't so clunky.

Nice one Sugei. Keep us confused trade-iners posted!

Me three. My invoice looks great until I have to factor in my outstanding settlement figure. It's very confusing indeed. Who is supposed to be settling the finance on my trade-in? Me or Tesla?

As always Mr M, grateful for your updates. It strikes me that Glovis Crystal is the runt of the litter. Let's hope the same doesn't apply for our cars!

Yes, I was aware that the images weren't that recent, but interested to hear Mr M's analysis which potentially dates it back to June of last year. At the time it was taken it appears red and white were very popular!

Just as aside, has anyone checked out the satelitte view of Pier 80 on GoogleMaps? Lots of Red and White Teslas ready and waiting!

Like everyone else, super excited over the next few weeks as the deliveries start to come to fruition. However anyone else getting a bit concerned that the side camera fault is starting to become too commonplace, especially for European deliveries?

On behalf of many due to pick up their vehicles next month, where can we find this inspection checklist?

That's poor show. I'm due to pick up from Chelmsford on the 16th so presumably I wait for the same phone call.

Thanks. I'm also due to pick up on the 16th December too, following the recent email glitch. As I initially suspected Glovis Crystal is our ship to track in the meantime.

For Chelmsford pickups I was advised that I would receive a text with a delivery slot. No indication or promise of the email being resent. What a shambles! I shall be asking for supercharger miles to be added to my account!!

Think I'm in the same boat then. Typical!

Just got mine too, but when I click the link it just takes me to my account and no schedule comes up. Just the usual manage...etc. Anyone any ideas?

I'm due to pick up my LR next month and one of my first stops will be window tinting. I live in Chelmsford so would also be interested in Terry Tints and keen to know whether they have experience in doing rear tint in 1 piece.

Good shout, thank you. Another boat for me to track then!!

Received allocation text today (ordered LR on 27th Oct). I assume that’s Glovis Crystal

Not heard a dickie bird since my order on the 27th October (same as nrps1 right?) but also hope to be collecting in Chelmsford. Hope we all get to a have a model 3 collection party before Xmas!

As a rough guide how much range loss are we looking at here? Is it exactly as per performance spec vs long range or somewhere in between?
