Hah - mine is a black M3 and spends a lot of its time in Dunbar at Belhaven (live in North Berwick). I think I know the car you’re referring to.

they were a bit of a faff to assemble first time but one they’re put together it only takes a couple of minutes to mount or remove them. Wind noise is my only complaint. I have the aero version and hoped to leave them on full time but I can’t live with the noise when the racks aren’t in use...

I have similar on my M3LR with standard aero caps. It’s a company car and the fleet manager wouldn’t authorise replacement of the tyre as it was deemed cosmetic damage as the cords aren’t visible. A few folks have caught my attention to point the tyre damage out to me. It’s a bit annoying but...

Crossing my fingers for Cold Weather Improvements 🤞

It’s nothing to do with the angle of my seat and everything to do with the fixed angle of the head restraint in relation to the seat back. I’m certainly not alone in noting the issue/annoyance although it could just be that a batch or a few batches of head restraints had their legs bent to a...

I understand that and in every other car I’ve owned the headrest/restraint is positioned far enough back that you don’t rest your head on it. In the Model 3 (mine af least) it’s impossible not to rest your head on it as it’s angled so far forward. Very annoying.

I have mixed feelings about this. I would have absolutely bought a Polestar 2 last year instead of a Model 3 if the Supercharger network hadn’t been such a differentiator. As a Tesla owner I’m a bit miffed that the main reason (for me at least) to chose Tesla is now being diluted, but on the...

OK, this suddenly clears things up for me. My employer issued a new P11D in the middle of this month (not entirely sure why) and updated my company car details to a Class A car. HMRC immediately pounced on this and calculated that I'd underpaid tax this year, and adjusted my tax code to...

T Thanks. I might pony up for the Farad racks and see how they go. I can always remove them for long journeys. My biggest fear is cracking the roof…

I’m vacillating between the Farad wing version and the official Tesla racks. Those with the Farad racks, how are they impacting efficiency? thanks

100% agree. Same applies to the alarm. Mine went off on my local high street a couple of weeks ago and it was a mortifying race back to the car to turn off a face-meltingly loud heavy metal version of Bach's Toccata & Fugue. I really wish Tesla would invent a 'subtle mode' for folk like me...

I finally found a solution to this after months of frustration. If you slowly push the indicator stalk down so that it registers the half-click on the way to the full-click it works as it should and indicates left to exit. If you just slam the indicator down (like you typically would in most...

I raised a service ticket for this last month and Tesla resprayed the affected areas so I’d definitely suggest raising it with Tesla. That said I’ve seen a number of posts where Tesla have attributed the chips to wear and tear and gave refused to fix them. I’d suggest standing your ground in...

I had an M3 driver wave at me in Edinburgh earlier this week, and then a blue M3 in North Berwick wave yesterday or the day before. I didn’t realise this was a thing so if you were one of those drivers, apologies if I was rude, I’ll be friendlier next time!

I hope this gets resolved for you. I dropped my car in to the SC last week for other issues and flagged the paint damage around the wheel arches on my 2021 M3LR (collected in December). The stone chips weren’t as bad as in some of the photos in this thread but they were worse than I’ve ever...

I collected a loaner Model S from Edinburgh last week which smelled so bad inside that I drove the 30-odd mile trip home with the windows open. I slathered myself in hand sanitiser while driving and tried not to touch anything (especially my mouth/eyes) and then fully cleaned the car when I got...

I find the seats themselves comfortable enough, but the headrest is awful. It pushes my head forward and hurts my neck. I've seen a few videos online showing a fix for this but it basically involves removing the headrest, putting it in a vice and bending the legs. I'm not sure I'm up for that...

It was a pleasant surprise to say the least. I'd be lying if I said that I didn't spend an evening on an empty stretch of road near my house blasting up to 60mph over and over and over until I gave myself motion sickness. I thought the 4.2s of the AWD LR was fun, but this was true madness :)

That's disappointing that Bristol aren't catching everything in one session. It took me a while to realise how to consolidate multiple issues into one service request and from that point Tesla were great at covering it all. Might be worth booking another service and requesting a loaner car and...

Just spoken with Tesla and they've advised that it should be active on the account but that there's no real way to see it. The only indication comes once I've actually used the Supercharger the session won't log in my Supercharger history. The sales person I spoke with did seem familiar with...

Hi all, I collected my Model 3 LR AWD from Edinburgh on Xmas Eve in the flurry of year-end deliveries. My experience was largely positive and I didn't have any dreaded panel gap issues, although there was an issue with the driver's window seal on the door itself where it was very clearly...

Thanks - that's reassuring. I'll give Tesla another call to see whether someone can confirm.

Have any lease drivers successfully claimed their 1 year free Supercharging? My Model 3 is a company car and whilst the car appears in the app on my phone, there is no car assigned to me in my account. This means that I have no loot box, etc. I ordered mid-December and collected on Xmas Eve...
