Thought I would post an update after the recent works and software update to 2021.36.5.5 this morning. I’ve had the car back for two weeks now (the SC had it for four weeks and only changed the antenna board and checked wiring). It failed after two days of having it back, and has been about...

I tried switching the views while there. It did show up eventually but could be connected to other issue of tracking off road. It’s not too much of an issue if I know where I’m going and don’t need directions, but not so great for new places. And if it does it on the motorway, I can’t use...

Update on previous update…. Problem still exists. After driving away from SC yesterday, it failed almost immediately so I turned around and went straight back. They have been really good about it, sent a technician out again to run further tests. The GPS runs on a 5V signal and the voltage is...

Update:- car was in with Chester SC today, a new GPS antenna has fixed the issue. I’ll test it fully over the weekend but happy with the service received so far.

In this digital social media world, wouldn’t there be multiple YouTube videos by now if it worked? I can’t find any, and none of the bloggers I follow on there have managed to post about it yet. Not saying it’s not possible, but I get the feeling it’s a wind up at the moment. And as a...

@VanillaAir_UK Ive just checked the location from the app, car has been idle for two hours and still thinks it’s a mile away, despite being sat on my drive. I’ll check it in the morning and do the bug report if it’s still wonky. Thanks!

I thought it could be poor GPS signal, but it’s done it from three different locations now. I’ve logged a call for Friday.

Hi Folks, I’ve had my car nearly three weeks and am enjoying it immensely. Over the past week, it has developed an annoying issue where if I park up away from home, then come back to the car, my GPS signal seems out of alignment. I’ve tried resetting while driving home today, but by the time I...

My Mk1 Escort had a rubber bulb and switch on the floor next to the clutch for the windscreen wash… no vinyl roof though it was only a 1300e 😂

Yes, ordered 3rd June, delivery next week.

I’ve ordered through Leaseplan on 3rd June. Tesla have contacted me directly throughout, even to schedule delivery. I had to tell Leaseplan when the car was arriving 😂

For those waiting for the first Q3 UK ship, she’s nearly here 🥳

Is it not a bit like Supermarket Sweep? You set your charge level to 90%, and the good lady gets to hit the shops for that amount of time? 😂

Hope you’re wearing something? Chaps maybe? White linen boxers?

Also how different people drive… My partners Volvo XC60 regularly ‘warns’ her she’s too close to car/barrier/pedestrian 😂 yet I’ve never had one beep from it.

I don’t have a car yet to test, but does it alter the distance you get the warning chime at if you change any of the TACC settings for following cars etc? There’s a setting for early normal or late warning isn’t there?

Pagna under way by paddle it seems 😄

It’s unlike any other car order I’ve ever placed, but I suppose the car is unlike any other. I hope you get more info soon 🙂

As Pagna seems to have left her anchor down, or is stuck in second, any idea what her ETA is?

I was beginning to think I wasn’t getting mine any time soon, as others who had ordered after already had delivery texts. The system was down today, local SC confirmed this, but got a text around 5pm. They haven’t allocated everything in transit yet, so be patient and you may get lucky early...

Mine is a lease.

Just had the magic text, delivery 18th August. Ordered M3LR on 3rd June in white, black int., no options 🥳

Shipping Movements? It’s good to hear about leases and sims but maybe in the leasing or SIM card thread?

So unlucky, but sounds like you’re being looked after. Always a Honda, eh…. Guess their driverless technology is way behind Tesla 😂

Just ask nicely, I guess? I have been in contact with them every week since i ordered, as I'm trying to plan my current car going back, new baby arriving, new car arriving... But i know some people on here are getting little to no info back. My SC is also really helpful, they have a lot more...

The Tesla logistics department like to throw you off the scent maybe? Making you work harder to track them :)

I asked earlier and was told when the ship arrives??? It seems that it may happen while en route, from what others have said so hopefully next few weeks? Sorry, only made a note of the ship name.

Still fits with timings of mid-August for delivery, so i'm still hoping :rolleyes:

@Mr Miserable Tesla chat agent confirmed my car is on the way over on first ship, PAGNA 6/W - CN SHG-GB SOU Does this name mean anything to you?

So many negative comments, makes us relative newcomers worry about the choice we have made. I’ve driven a BMW 330e for the last four years, and personally I’m looking forward to owning a M3LR. Maybe owners should expect a more refined drive when spending £60k on a M3P, but the trade off was...

Not strictly a Shipping comment, but do you get extra capacity in Germany for Autobahn ‘utilisation’? 😊

Have you considered the Oxford Tube, you park for free at the park & ride just off J8 M40, then the return is £16 last time i took it. Maybe cheaper and more convenient than parking centrally, and goes into Victoria.

Contacted a helpful man via chat, asked for an update as there was stock showing in transit. He confirmed stock in transit and said there was a match, would I like it allocated? Depends on your spec maybe, I’ve gone bog-standard white on black.

Same for me

Just spoke to Tesla through the chat, and they have allocated a car to my order. Expected Mid-Aug for delivery late Aug/Early Sept. Seems to fit with the dates.

Ah great, hadn’t seen the Tesla version, only ABRP. I love the drive and can only imagine it’s sweeter in the M3LR

Great to know, thanks. I’ve looked at ABRP but didn’t see many chargers. Zap-Map didn’t seem to work abroad, hopefully there’s a euro version.

How do you find the charging network in France and Spain? Are they on par or ahead/behind the UK? We are looking to visit friends near Cannes early next year and have driven with an ICE, but I was wondering how it would be in the M3LR that hopefully arrives next month.

So we could still see a July 7th departure then? If it’s a Tesla ship…. Great news, something to watch for in the next few days.

So the first ship to leave last Q was on the 7th April, how long would it take to load these two up? Is 10000 cars in 7 days a manufacturing miracle? 😄

What info do you need? Is there an order to the RN number that fits or does the allocation happen once the ship unloads in the UK? I notice the website is still stating August delivery for a LR ordered today.

UKtion… love it 😂

Ironic really that the worlds leading EV brand uses such environmentally harmful transport. Maybe the next Tesla project - Transportation?

Never thought shipping could be so interesting 😂 It’s like the Santa tracker for big kids waiting for Tesla’s. I ordered early June, so hopefully will see some movement next week with the first ship leaving Shanghai? How often do the ships depart once the quarter kicks off?

I’m about the same. Tesla Chester told me my match date for a car is 31/07, so with a month to ship its going to be a new reg I guess. Not bothered either way as it’s lease, so would happily take it on the 31 Aug 😂

Within the first few hours, maybe while at the SuC for the first time

The nice lady in the Tesla centre said £40 from their parts department which I didn’t think was too bad. Will not be buying cheap eBay rip offs, been stung before with those 🙄

Like these, a cleaner look 👍🏻

Brilliant, thanks 👍🏻 Looks good too 😍 Thanks 👍🏻 Good to know the range isn’t affected much.

So I went for a test drive of a M3LR after placing my order last week… very impressed with how well it drives, and pretty much everything about the car, apart from the aero wheels. The white M3LR in the showroom (Chester Tesla) had the trims removed on one side, and looked a totally different...
