    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    New to IO. I have noticed that the smart charging does not always get started and one night the car did not charge at all. If I really need a charge, I feel that I need to schedule a charge at 2330. Have others had this problem and any tips?

    USB for both TeslaCam and Music

    Thank you- I will see if I can use the central console for music. I did look at partitioning the USB but it was a bit too technical and it prevents adding extra music files. Looks like Tesla needs to pay more attention to better music options.

    USB for both TeslaCam and Music

    I have a LR21.I have my music files on a USB stick. I wanted to have this in addition to the Tesla Cam. Bought a USB splitter which goes in to the glovebox (which stated was compatible with Tesla). One had Tesla dashcam drive and the other USB stick with music. I am finding that I can use one...

    Charging problems using Podpoint chargers

    Please update us regarding how you got on with this? A valid point!! I too haven't needed to charge outside the house yet.

    Charging problems using Podpoint chargers

    This was my experience as well. You could argue that 15 min of charging isn't much but as per their motto, every little helps. I had another non Tesla EV charge successfully- which is why I submitted this post to see if it was a compatibility issue, but clearly some drivers are having no...

    Charging problems using Podpoint chargers

    OK- so it might be a charger issue rather than a car issue. I didn't think of using Zap map. Will try next time. Thanks

    Charging problems using Podpoint chargers

    Yes- I did that as well and got a tick on the app that it was now activated- but no charge coming in to my Tesla.

    Autosteer glitches at turnpoints

    I have noticed on my 2021 LR which has standard base autopilot (not FSD) that sometimes when I am using the autosteer function on a dual carriageway that it gets a bit confused at carriageway exits especially if the exit ramp is a gentle turn off from the main carriageway with the car swaying...

    Charging problems using Podpoint chargers

    I tried to charge my Model 3 LR at our local supermarket- Tesco offers 15 min of complimentary charging via 7 KWh chargers paired with Podpoint. When I tried to make use of this opportunity I found that though the charger recognised the podpoint source it could not charge and an error message...

    Charge plug not being able to be disconnected

    Yep- it is a Type 2 connector which is the commonest version in the UK compatible for a wide range of EVs including Teslas. It is a temperamental issue and is unpredictable.

    Charge plug not being able to be disconnected

    My Podpoint charger does not have a button (unlike the Tesla chargers). I rely on either the app or the touchscreen inside the car- sometimes neither of these work, so it is not just a problem whilst the car is asleep.

    Charge plug not being able to be disconnected

    I have a Model 3 that I charge using my Podpoint home charger. Intermittently I have problems with disconnecting the plug when I want to start driving. This is despite trying to disconnect using both the app or the in car touch screen. It usually works absolutely fine but on other times you need...

    Climate control switching on by itself

    It looks like I might have made a mistake when setting up scheduled departure charging so that the car thought I was going to start my journey and started to preheat. Once I switched off scheduled charging this is no longer an issue.

    Climate control switching on by itself

    I might take up your advice- it is awful to see so much charge draining away- sometimes I think the car uses less electricity when driving than when stationary at home!!

    Climate control switching on by itself

    I will have a look at my departure schedule to make sure it hasn't inadvertently been turned on whilst playing around with settings. Thanks. Useful tip.

    Climate control switching on by itself

    Yes, it does seem to have occured after the last software update- interesting to hear that others too have noticed this. Thanks

    Climate control switching on by itself

    I have had my model 3 LR since September. Over the last week I have noticed that the cllimate control has switched on by itself despite the car not having been driven for lasf few days. I got a notification on my app that the car has arrived to the desired temperature and when I looked in to my...

    Navigation Question

    Both of those are useful tips- I will bear them in mind when I use navigation next. I watched quite a few videos on Tesla maps but couldn't figure this out- so thank you for those tips

    Navigation Question

    Is there .any way of being able to keep the map in the zoomed in version by default like Google Maps? Everytime I zoom in within a few seconds it zooms out and shows the whole route making it impossible to know how to anticipate which turning I need to take.
