    Charge scheduling (again... sorry!)

    But like all owners forums for different brands (non tesla), there are many threads with issues they have with their cars. These forum are all the same. I don’t think we are “blowing it out of proportion”. What I have noticed on this forum which is different to other, is Tesla seems to have...

    Can we have the Wh/mile odometer "card" back please?

    As well the trip and tyre pressure cards, can we have the windscreen wipers card there as a permanent option, instead of “pop-up” then disappear? Same for the lights control card now in v11

    Map stays zoomed out

    For some reason it will stay a bit more zoomed in (and still track the car), in the “north up” setting. If you have it in the “heading up” setting, it stays zoomed out. I had issues with this in V10 as well as V11. When you are not navigating, the map can be zoomed in more (and still track).

    Mobile app updates

    Apart from your last "issue", which I cannot comment on as I just charge to 100%, I haven't experienced any of those problems with the new app?

    Charge scheduling (again... sorry!)

    Good job! Hopefully someone will take notice. I mean it’s not hard is it?! Start time, end time. Job done!

    Do dealership reps know much about EVs?

    Well, considering I have heard from several friends that dealerships "ensured" them that they could use Tesla chargers to charge their EVs (Merc, Vauxhall and Kia, in this scenario), I would have to say that their collective knowledge of EVs is not great!

    Preconditioning from app

    No, because as I said, I then unplugged again, and the rasher reappeared. Strange one. Will need to check again, as this was some weeks back, in V10.5

    Preconditioning from app

    Well, I thought it was strange, so went outside, plugged it in, then the bacon rashers disappeared instantly. Then vice versa when unplugged again.

    Preconditioning from app

    My app only shows the “bacon rashers” when I’m preconditioning, but NOT plugged in.

    I agree, this was a useful "hack" which I was using every night.

    Dark Mode

    The old dark mode was too dark to use in daytime really. The whites were very dim. The contrast of the new version is much more defined. It was a sunny day here today, and I could see the screen no problem. In the week before Xmas (when also sunny), in V10, I had to have it on “day” or white...

    Charging with no home charger is just as expensive as petrol?

    The government will have to start taxing public charging soon anyway. The amount of money they will lose from people not buying petrol/diesel, they have to find from somewhere else.

    Charging with no home charger is just as expensive as petrol?

    By the way, the AER rate for EVs has recently been raised to 5ppm. That’s what I am claiming at the moment from my employer, for business miles...

    I guess I will just have to start using the auto dip headlights then. Never been a fan on any car I've had with that system. Always dips a tad too late, or not at all, and vice versa. Bearing in mind that I live in the country, so no streetlamps. If I lived in an urban area, it would be much...

    Wiki [UK] 2021 - The Holiday Release - 'holiday fun' not V11 UI changes and features

    Seriously? Because if you enable it on the menu, you cannot use the headlights manually. Which is what I want to do. If enabled in the menu, all you are doing is switching between dipped, and auto dip and back again. Can someone else tell me if I have this completely wrong, or maybe my car...

    Wiki [UK] 2021 - The Holiday Release - 'holiday fun' not V11 UI changes and features

    But you have to have auto dim enabled in the menu to do that. Without auto dim enabled, all that gentle push does, is turn on your high beam. That’s the point.

    Wiki [UK] V11 UI Changes and Features

    Everyone saying that the forum poll suggests the majority think the new UI is good. Not really. I voted for “some good, some bad, but overall ok” That doesn’t mean I choose the new UI as being “better than the old”?! It means there are some improvements, but also some changes that are...

    Wiki [UK] 2021 - The Holiday Release - 'holiday fun' not V11 UI changes and features

    Yes, but I don’t like to use the auto headlights (on any car really), because they’re not exactly “reliable”.

    Wiki [UK] V11 UI Changes and Features

    Yes, but they had asked about the small quick menu, not the full hvac screen. I actually find the small sub menu easier to control whilst driving. As it moves the essential controls right next to the steering wheel, instead of reaching across the centre screen.

    Wiki [UK] 2021 - The Holiday Release - 'holiday fun' not V11 UI changes and features

    Not exactly ideal though is it? Round here we get patchy fog, so can be very thick (under 100m visibility) for a mile or so, then suddenly clear. So you are following someone, and have to flash them when you need to turn off the fog lights because you’ve come out of the fog? At the end of...

    Tap the arrow either side of the temp readout, that brings up the small sub menu with heated seats and quick controls. It does of course change the temp by 0.5deg though, so you may want to tap it back again after changing the heated seat setting.

    Mines an SR+ too. So only have rear. As others have said, the fog we get in my part of the country can be very thick out in the rural areas, but quite clear when driving through towns/villages. Hence why an easy/quick “button” is needed. It used to be right under the headlight controls in main...

    Had to drive in thick fog this evening. Couldn’t find the fog lights on V11?! I had to pull over so I could search through the menus. How it isn’t under “quick controls” with the headlight controls, where it used to be, Christ knows?! Crazy?! So now when you enter a town, you have to fumble...

    I'm using the PS4 controller too. The R2 button is "start" for some reason. Then you play the game with normal joystick and X.

    The driving visualisation section has been reduced in size, which I believe quite a few owners on here preferred. Only reduced by 10mm though. I took some before and after measurements….. Before: After:

    Which controller you using? Mine is a PS4, you have to press R2, to start the game, then the normal buttons take over.

    The trip details hidden in the menu, is the major complaint I have. That, and you still can't zoom in on the map and track in the heading up setting. Only in the North up setting. They've even taken away the "+" & "-" buttons!

    If you tap on the arrows either side of the temp readout, it brings up the small quick menu, if you click on the temp number itself, it brings up the big hvac screen.

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q4 Collection and Delivery Experiences

    @WKZ12 , looking at your sginature, you ordered your car on 24/11 from the inventory. I would bet that this almost certainly would have been a Standard Range plus. To be fair, chances are ,you now have a "unicorn" anyway. The larger 60kwh battery, heated rear seats & steering wheel, all with...

    From what I know, the SR+ is what have been delivered this year. The RWD (non SR+) version is the 2022 deliveries. I ordered a SR+ in September, and that’s what got delivered to me last month.

    Oh I completely agree that a video view of the blind spot is a great addition. My comment was more aimed at the other forum post that was also asking for a warning that flashes onscreen (maybe audible as well?), which I thought was already a feature.

    Mine takes around 10secs or so to lock as I walk away (Make sure "walk away lock" is enabled in the "Locks" and/or "security" screen). Lights go off within a second or so of getting out of the seat (Maybe you have the "headlights on after exit" option highlighted in settings?). In fact, if I'm...

    Not had any problems with my banking app. Nor with my Apple Pay payments. Because I find I am using my Tesla app every day, to check for mileage range and also odometer readings for work, it’s easier for me to leave on US region for this purpose. I guess the point is, it takes a few seconds...

    Can you relocate the vent button on the app?

    You know that if you try to reposition the far right icon to off the side of the screen, it will jump down and allow you 5 icons on the home screen? Can take a while to do, but it works.
