    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    Hey everyone. Not sure if this is the right section mods please move if needed Spotted a very long row of v4 style chargers (new ones) at gypsy lane retail park exit in Luton. They obviously haven’t been switched on yet but it’s been a long time coming and will fill a good gap in the...

    Facelift Model 3

    Interesting. The dashboard is different and curves towards where the steering wheel would be. So I would assume there will be some sort of display there

    Camborne (Cornwall) Supercharger?

    Used this supercharger a day ago. Tesla maps gives you the worst directions to it. It’s tucked behind a building called the fibre hub. There is no cafe. Just a kfc over the road. Mad to think how many times I may have been sitting next to other members of this forum by reading the...

    ICE to EV doubts

    I used to drive my RS5 daily. Since I got the tesla model 3 SR+. I barely use the Audi anymore. The interior sound is the same to me. It’s the tyres that make the difference. I guess I can’t compare the sound of the Audi considering it’s mega loud

    Model 3 isofix, do you use inserts, or just squeeze between the cushions

    If I could add some detail…. I have a model 3 with black interior, I used the isofix inserts with to help guide the rails of the child seat. One day I needed to haul some stuff so I took out the child seat and left the isofix inserts thinking nothing of it. I dropped the seats down...

    TeslaOffer "Eagle Eye" rear lights

    whilst they incorporate many cool features that most modern rear lights have. Sweeping and dynamic indicators etc. It’s still a very poor version of it. Not enough individual LEDs to make it look smooth.

    Indicator question on Model 3

    I also had an issue with my car deciding to indicate by itself without even using the stalk. Always the right indicator when on the motorway. I don’t have fsd but did have autopilot engaged

    Stress cracks in rear light

    The second picture where the little circle dot is is where the injection moulding point is. These lights must be incredibly cheaply made

    After market headlights

    The light output is lowered due to regulations In Europe you must have headlamp washers to be allowed to have a brighter light output. Of which Tesla do not

    Front motor.. dead

    it was under warranty. Rs5 and Rs6 have suffered from mechatronic failures. They blame use of the paddle gear shifters and material entering the mech unit. I know many a people on the rs forums who had similar issues. Went all the way to Germany and came back as a no. I still...

    Front motor.. dead

    Wish Audi replaced the mechatronic unit on my Audi rs5 when it pooped itself. Sadly 12 grand later the car was working again. Glad to hear they are replacing it

    2021 M3 - Marks on Rear Passenger Seats

    My black interior had marks and creases on collection of the car. The service centre steamed the seats and was pretty much able to remove them 98%. There is a feint outline there. Annoying but at the end of the day they are going to pick up small creases with use anyway.

    What I have been upto today

    Just wanted to share a little Tesla wall charger modification that I had done today. We are changing the grey standard tesla wall charger into a signature looking one. Still waiting on the text and signature to arrive but we have wrapped the wall charger in satin black to match the 2021...

    Blank Screen - Model 3

    Had the same issue. Picked up my car 31st December. It happened once and never happened again. Tesla couldn’t see anything in the system even though it said it needed service or something in the error. This happened after a software update. Can’t remember which one

    Refresh 2021 or wait for MIC model 3??

    I honestly wouldn’t expect anything better from a car manufacturing line from the same brand regardless of where it is. The tools and machinery will be the same and tooled to do the same job. The only variances will be any parts that are put on by hand and time taken to make sure things...

    Self healing lights...

    I would say it’s up to you. The main thing is that the service centre know about it and the issue is at least logged into the system in case it happens again

    Refresh 2021 or wait for MIC model 3??

    I had no issues with panel gaps. There was what looked to be a small tiny chip on the front bumper that was on collection when I looked around the car. And the rear bumper looked like it was not clipped in properly slightly on one corner. These issues are currently being fixed by service...

    Refresh 2021 or wait for MIC model 3??

    I had the same feeling from buying an inventory vehicle on the 30th December and picking it up on the 31st. I was thinking what if in January they drop the price. Then they updated to MIC and increased the range. It’s all pro and con. I hear more range but the mic batteries are worse...

    What would/will you pay for heated steering wheel?

    After dropping off my car for service 2021 model 3 SR+ At 6am when everything was frozen, And coming home in a model S with a heated steering wheel. I would say it’s something that I didn’t know I wanted. I would pay to unlock it if that was ever possible and we do find out that we might...

    Tesla offers 1 year free supercharging if you buy before Dec 31st 2020

    Makes perfect sense. Also in terms of seeing the account history?? I assume this is in the account section on Tesla’s website. If so it does not show anything under the payments or charging section, even though I had been to two super chargers since owning the car.

    Tesla offers 1 year free supercharging if you buy before Dec 31st 2020

    Yeah that’s what I assumed. I guess it’s just strange that there isn’t anything official anywhere. Especially when my car screen is showing me costs. Someone said to me they would change to 0 but it never happened. Either way. It’s all good.

    Tesla offers 1 year free supercharging if you buy before Dec 31st 2020

    I picked up my car on the 31st December. Used a referral so I can see on my app it says 1000 miles free super charging but no where does it state that actually I get a year for free. I had to use a supercharger when I picked up the car as it had 8 miles range on it and on the car screen it...

    What did you do to your Tesla Model 3 today?

    Today I had a matte carbon spoiler delivered for my model 3. I wanted something that was as close to the performance one. Matte carbon fibre. Held it up against the car it seems to fit ok just need to fit it when I can be bothered

    Issue with climate turning itself on during night

    Thanks for all the replies. Haven’t used my Apple Watch since lockdown started but I have done the two button reset. Car is due in at the service centre anyway next week to fix the pickup issues so I may just mention it to them

    Issue with climate turning itself on during night

    Just checked. None of the doors are open or left partially closed. Climate inside the car is set to off and schedule is turned off. This has happened for the last three days. Never happened initially. I think it’s been funny since the software update. I’ll try a factory reset

    Issue with climate turning itself on during night

    As the title says. The car is only just over two weeks old and recently in the last couple of days the climate has come on somehow (car isn’t being driven). By itself. It must have been running for ages as the app sent me a notification saying the climate has been running for an...

    Here is a picture of the steering wheel of mine (2021). What am I looking at that makes people possibly think it could or could not be heated etc?

    Could you get a picture if possible ? I haven’t seen the anything other than what I have so I don’t know what I’m looking for

    Standard range plus range increase

    I also bought my 2021 having the quoted range of 267. I believe since the refresh on the website it shows 278 maybe the MIC models (slightly different battery maybe?) No one really knows yet

    Tesla have updated m3 on website

    Absolutely I still love the car. It’s a simple case of that feeling or I know as soon as I buy it this will happen. I plan to try a couple of retrofits as long as it’s oem stuff just as j have done on my Audi rs5. What’s the deal with the no seam steering wheel?

    Tesla have updated m3 on website

    Only going by what I was told by Tesla etc upon my test drive. I only bought my car on the 31st December. No earlier than that. Was sold to me as a 2021 refresh I am new. And am getting the way that they must do it. Not the end of the world just annoying I haven’t even been...

    Tesla have updated m3 on website

    I mean I certainly care about being told that I received the refresh. Which is partially correct considering I have the de chrome and new centre console. But it does throw into doubt the speculation around even some of us thinking we may have received the heated steering wheel etc etc...

    Tesla have updated m3 on website

    Understandable. But the centre console refresh being done literally weeks ahead of the door cards just don’t seem fair to me. I can’t be alone on this. I wonder if the new door cards would fit

    WLTP standards and what Tesla tells you

    Nope. It’s been updated. The interior has changed with the new door cards and the white interior option is back
