    Hows your adaptive high beam?

    so when using the matrix lights do you just leave the headlights on main beam the whole time and let it do it's thing or do you still use dipped beams?

    S3XY Knob Deliveries

    I agree I'm happy to wait and have a reliable non buggy product - However it does vex me slightly that companies bank my money well in advance and dont supply on time. They should really offer a refund and charge again when they are ready to ship

    Sexy Buttons resume autopilot function - Brilliant !!

    yes as @Oxid8ter says, you set parameters in the App - the minimum speed you want it to activate at and the amount of seconds after the indicator cancels (I have mine at 3 sec.) Then whilst driving with Autopilot engaged you indicate to change lanes, this cancels the AP (tesla function - which...

    Sexy Buttons resume autopilot function - Brilliant !!

    It does still have the Bing bong although I must admit I didnt seem to notice it as much so I'm not sure if its at a lower volume - I'll test it out and report back

    Sexy Buttons resume autopilot function - Brilliant !!

    For those of you who didnt know the Enhauto sexy button software had a Chrismas update in December, one of the new functions is resume autopilot, this is a great function and IMHO worth the money of the buttons on its own. When driving with autopilot on you indicate to change lanes, which...

    Are there any UK 3-pin granny chargers that include a built in timer?

    it is a standard size din raill fitting so goes into a consumer unit, but not a a replacement for an MCB as this is still needed for over current protection it is as well as an MCB so you need to have a spare slot. installation is very straight forward, depends upon your wiring of course, in my...

    Model 3 increasing speed to 85MPH on its own

    Resurrecting this thread as today I travelled the same section of road again and took notice of what happened. I'd be interested if anyone else lives or travels around the Exeter area and might be able to check out how their car behaves at the same spot. Travelling up Telegraph hill (anyone...

    Electrical genius required?

    I cant see it being current draw as the charger should step down the amount of charge if there are other demands on the supply. Are you operating the gates via a hard wired switch?. do the gates have a remote? my guess would be some form of Rf interference blocking the gates

    [UK] Would you buy another tesla

    I voted unsure. I love my M3 had it 12 month and 15K miles but for the money ther are now many other alternatives. Of course the supercharger network is a big plus and this alone would probably sway my decision. However if you dont SC often then there are other good options. My wifes car is a...

    [uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

    would we not have a justfied claim against Tesla if they remove function.

    No power = broken window!

    When you reaslised the charger hadn't charged the car due to software uodate why not just start the charge straight away,before you left home just 15 minutes would have added enough to give you a buffer and would have warmed the battery. The sudden drop of range you saw would surley be...

    No it wasnt under these specific circumstances, in fact it happened twice at the same section of road, I will pay more attention when next on the same road to see if it happens again at the same spot

    Model 3 increasing speed to 85MPH on its own

    My model 3 sometimes increases the set speed to 85MPH when on autopilot. I have the settings set to current speed. Is I assume the car is adjusting the speed according to detected speed limit on the road, is there a way to overide this and keep the set speed at what I set it as? I prefer to...

    Interesting that you dropped out of autopilot I have found in very bad weather/poor visibility that autopilot adds a level of safety

    Have you ever kerbed your Aero wheels?

    owing to the ease with which these wheels seem to get kerbed I decided to take out alloy wheel insurance, £239 for 3 years - seems like a good gamble to me

    Instavolt - 57 p/kwh

    2 litre new Defender fill with 75 litres (because like an EV you dont use the last 10%) was, a month ago when I last did it, £126. You're about right at 32 mpg which makes a range of 545 miles for that fill. I make that 4.32 ppm for the Defender and 4.67 ppm for the Tesla. I make it 23 ppm...

    agreed its a perfect move - I test drove the M3P and whilst it was exillarating I dont think I would use the power. Now I have my LR I recon its the fastest car I've ever owned and more than enough speed for me

    Interesting that you are moving from the M3P to LR - would you care to elaborate on the reasons. For me I went for the LR as the performance was not a requirement and I wanted the softer ride of the smaller wheels

    As far as I know you cant 'delay' a delivery by more than 7 days. if you need longer than this then your vehicle is matched to someone else and you go back in the queue to be re matched at a later date

    Yes I agree, whilst its easy for us all to critisise and bitch about minor inconvieniences other marques are giving their customers a much harder time, Tesla's way of doing things is unusual and very different from we are used to but in most cases we are getting the car we ordered in roughly the...

    Yes I agree, I postponed my delivery from December until the new year just so it would be 2022 registered, had no idea at the time of these upgrades so I consider that a bonus.

    I dont see how that would work as they would need to see the money in their account before allowing you to drive away. As far as i know all traditional car dealers require any deposits to be paid in advance of collection day

    No I dont think so, whilst all collection locations would be equal to start with if someone declines or postpones their collection then that vehicle might already be at or on route to a specific location so then would be matched to another buyer for that location - otherwise they would be moving...
