    Model 3 Service after 1 year...?

    Hi everyone, I am coming up to 1-year ownership and around 11k miles on my Model 3. Brilliant car, all happy and no issues so far. I know I don't need to do a 1-year service (according to the manual) like an ICE car but it is difficult to change your mindset after 15 years of traditional ICE...

    Granny charger

    I imagine that is accurate. Out of interest when you use it to charge the ID.3 do you have to do anything or just plug and go?

    Granny charger

    Finally got a response from Tesla on this. They said: “Many thanks for reaching out to us regarding your “Granny Charger”. I can confirm that this unit should only work with a Tesla as the charger itself communicates with the vehicle in order to determine it’s charge rate. Additionally as it...

    Granny charger

    I have checked with folks over on a Kuga owners' forum and they all suggest it should work fine and that I should contact Tesla. I have emailed Tesla (Expecting a long wait) and emailed Ford as well. It feels like this should be a lot simpler! o_O

    Granny charger

    I suspect Gen 2 as I got the Model 3 in December 2021. I've been asking over on a Kuga owners forum and nobody seems to have any idea either!

    Granny charger

    It does seem to be a software issue as far as I can tell. The Ford app says that there is an 'error with charge station' and the port flashes orange. It seems really odd that you cant just plug in and go

    Granny charger

    Hi sorry to go slightly off topic but I too use a granny charger and have done for a year on my M3sr+ with no issues. I run an extension lead from the garage to the car on the drive. I do about 15% on my daily commute and my 4 hours off peak charge that back most nights. On occasional big...

    Stick on number plates M3

    Hi everyone. Had my M3 since December 2021 and love it. One thing that does annoy me a little is that the number plates and brackets look out of place, blocky and flimsy. I am looking for recommendations about where to purchase good quality, UK road legal stick on number plates to replace...

    Solar Panels UK - is it worth it?

    Hi everyone, I recently took delivery of an M3 SR+ and am loving it so far. One aspect though that has got me thinking is the potential benefit of solar panels to help keep the charging costs down. I have done some light Googling and made a couple of enquires but just wondering if anyone has...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q4 Collection and Delivery Experiences

    I am 1 week in with my SR+ and absolutely love the car. The acceleration is just fantastic even though its only 1 motor. One thing I particularly enjoy is the easy entry mode as I have set it up to put the wheel right in and the seat really far back and low so that when it loads my profile it...

    UK 2021 Refresh RHD Model 3 Accessories [megathread]

    Hi all I just got my M3 SR+ last week and am sorting myself out some accessories. There seems to be a lot of different opinions out there about floor matts and I wondered if anyone has experience buying from Carmats Uk https://www.carmats-uk.com/p/tesla-model-3-2021-present-car-mats/ They have...

    UK 2021 Model 3 Q4 Collection and Delivery Experiences

    Hey I picked up my SR+ yesterday from Manchester Trafford centre. Very easy and smooth and the car has nothing wrong as far as I could tell (rain and darkness hindered my checking a little). I was due at 4.30 but didn’t get there until after 5 but this didn’t seem to be an issue. I got 2 text...

    Insurance New Vehicle [2021 Megathread]

    Hi all I am trying to get insurance in place for my M3 pickup on 10/12/21. I spoke with Tesla today and they informed me of my reg number but it is not being recognised by any comparison sites or individual site that I have tried. I have a pending quote (requires a reg) with Churchill and am...

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Hi thanks for your reply. Sadly not no that's no really an option. If I have to lose my allocation then I can live with that but it would be a shame if I then did have to wait until Feb! Still no response from Tesla I am wondering I its worth calling the Manchester sales & service.

    Wiki UK 2021 Orders and Pending Deliveries

    Hey I am due to collect my Model 3 SR+ on December 6th in Manchester. I ordered in October with expected delivery of Feb 2022 so was quite surprised that it has come forward by so much! Does anyone know about flexibility in the collection date? I am currently about to move house, and sale of...
