    Model S front passenger seat flexible drive shafts needed

    2015 Model S P85 - My front passenger seat twisting when going forward and backward is due to the failure of one of the seat's flexible drive shafts. Easy job if only I could get the £30 part. Tesla solution is a £900+ replacement seat base. The flexible shaft I need is approx. 150mm long and...

    MS Estimated Charge Times

    This bus reader sounds like a useful bit of kit. I've found some info on the CAN bus reader. Should keep me out of trouble for a while. Thanks.

    MS Estimated Charge Times

    Thanks for all responses. Apologies first to Rocky_H and others. My clumpsy calculation diverted from my point about estimated charge times. I have been logging recent charging events at 30 minute intervals and these results I think give a clearer picture which based on responses so far...

    MS Estimated Charge Times

    I’ve had my 2015 MS (P85D), my first EV, for well over a year. Overall it has been brilliant and I wouldn’t want to go back to an ICE. Over this time I have experienced a constant flow of uncertainty both with respect to my MS and EVs generally and it goes on. I am hoping that the broad...
