    Does leaving a battery at low state of charge cause degradation or just inconvenience?

    How do I do a bms calibration? I set off with 85% from a trickle charge and needed 3 supercharge stops in Perth, Abington and Tebay. Driving was a mixture of Scottish Highland roads to a max of 60 and mway. Mway was between 70 and 80 mostly with a little at 50 for roadworks. I've just...

    Renew your EV Road Tax

    I read online that for London types they will also pay the "congestion" charge after Dec 2025 - Well all them smokers have died off so they need to recoup that tax and all the fuel duty they will lose with the move to electric

    Legacy Model S nice to haves

    Love this response. I'd settle for camera upgrades if it was at all possible - live view, blind spots etc. Surely thats not a HW issue and more a memory issue? I'd remove some existing features if it freed up space for more useful things. I'm sure your tech knowledge may say that idea isn't...

    2024 Insurance Costs

    I never said I couldn't afford it. For people who cannot it will be the only option for them. For some people it will mean public transport only, which in this country is dreadful. People are being priced off the roads, not for real good reasons, but for greed, which is my point. My other point...

    Legacy Model S nice to haves

    They should offer a dash upgrade for legacy S or X. Probably cost a couple grand which is the cost from going to 2.5 to 3.0 I'd be interested if any Modders have replaced a crashed new interior to legacy

    Sat in highland model 3 and LHD model S other day

    Maybe when they do steer by wire in all models it won't be an issue?

    Sat in highland model 3 and LHD model S other day

    Just the build quality is better. Shutting the doors feels more premium. It has door bins...the little things. Centre console is lovely. Tbh there's no reason tesla couldn't offer an interior upgrade to legacy S and X

    Sat in highland model 3 and LHD model S other day

    And compared to my 2019 model S the interior build quality is night and day The new S feels almost audi quality on the interior. Everything feels exceptionally solid. So much has changed yet so much is identical to my car. Unfortunately LHD is a non starter. The 3 has same level of interior...

    2018 Model S "oil in coolant"

    Well if it is for the one valve it should take half the time hopefully. Half the labour and cost for just the single valve. That would tie in with someone else mentioning theirs cost about 280 quid Wonder if the cold has caused it - minus 6 here today and don't think its been that cold in the...

    2024 Insurance Costs

    It's robbery is what its is..and we all sit there and take it instead of refusing to pay..if we all refused renewals and got the bus/train for a few weeks most of these insurance firms would go under and the rest would soon fall into line and provide acceptable prices

    New ambient lighting mod for my Model S

    I'll grab some tomorrow morning. Yes. Very happy..proper transformed Interior. I had the piano black finish and it just was full if light surface scratches which annoyed me. He had the car a couple days but was delayed as the wrap didn't arrive on time. I reckon he could knock it out in full...

    New ambient lighting mod for my Model S

    I got something called symphony package..came in about 400 for dash front and rear doors and 4 footwells. Symphony gives me full control of all colours plus animations including putting it to music. TBH I don't bother with that and have it a static red unless mood means I fancy changing it...

    UK FSD Discussion

    Just be good to have a definitive date of arrival. Based on what I've seen fro. Videos I think I'd drop 3.4k to upgrade to FSD on my Model S. Problem is musk will just surprise announce it complete with a 5-10k increase in price

    Maxton kits for model S

    Yeah, they don't add much to the ground clearance compared to other kits, and they aren't as "in your face" as other kits IMO anyway. Not too fussed on the cleaning aspect. I just dont want to get it then hear rattles or whistling wind noise and have a bunch of screw holes left if i have to...

    Maxton kits for model S

    In addition to some recent upgrades, I am considering the full Maxton kit for my 2019 Model S. I think it really looks understated but adds a greatly improved visual look to the standard car. Is there anyone else who has this on either the S or any other Tesla who can tell me if adding these...

    Anywhere in UK fit accessories for Model S?

    I'll give them a try. The new highland has made me want similar interior lighting so was looking to order this: Tesla model S Ambient Light with App control I also really like their updated head and tail lights for the S too.. I just don't trust myself to do the installation.
