    Is this a legal number plate, and is it also legal for travel outside of the UK?

    Thankfully was not spotted by the police either in the UK or in mainland Europe. I would argue the actual registration letters and main area of the plate are still reflective. I doubt anyone is going to pull you up and give you a criminal record for a sticker which may not reflect? Tape it up...

    Is this a legal number plate, and is it also legal for travel outside of the UK?

    I am not sure. I didn't really care if they were reflective. Why does that matter? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284360480878 £1.39 including postage....... I don't know how they make any money with the price of snail mail

    Is this a legal number plate, and is it also legal for travel outside of the UK?

    Got mine from Buy New Number Plates - Replacement Number Plates from UK Registrations They do the green EV Flash and the UK / Union Flag Refer here if travelling abroad I think. I believe they should be compliant but DOUBLE-CHECK if you want the plate for overseas travel rather than just...

    Disc brake significant grooves - performance only?

    Anyone got to the bottom of this problem with Tesla officially? I have a M3P 2019 (bought 6 months ago) - can't say I actually looked when I purchased it at the discs that closely & I have a MY 2022. The M3P shows similar pattern to everyone else on this thread. The MY 2022 still has shiny...

    Uneven rotor wear on 2018 Standard Model 3

    I am exploring a similar problem because a bloke comes up to me in the Supermarket car-park at the weekend and tells me my brake discs are not correctly wearing (he claims he is a Motorhead and knows these things). Ok, so I start to have a look myself and compare the discs on my car to other...

    3D Printed Charging "Dock Bar" for iPhone Pro Max's

    Hi, have bought a Tesla Model 3 used (which is out of warranty) & I believe the docking bar in the car is an incorrect version. Any phone I've tried on the wireless charging bar just slips down when accelerating. The lip clearly is not high enough. I am thinking I need to source an...

    Can someone identify these white marks?

    I had a few tiny white spots over my car recently. I think I actually caused this myself when I was painting the outside of my house using a roller. They've all come off now thankfully. Could have been anyone using a roller near your car and tiny paint droplets can float in the air and land on...

    Dilemma - stick or twist re vehicle choice

    1. STICK - our family has a Model Y (for around town + long distances) and a BMW 2 Series Active Tourer 225XE PHEV (whenever we need a 2nd car at the same time) - The Model Y is perfect. I hate the BMW Hybrid though as you really do have to plug it in daily and it regularly runs out of charge...

    Sonic missing from M3

    It's disappeared on my Model Y since the last software update. With one hand they giveth, on another they taketh.

    Intelligent Octopus and Powerwall integration

    Our OHME charger (we use Octopus IO) bypasses our solar battery for good design reasoning. We don't have enough solar production to fulfil Car charging as well as house consumption. My assumption here is you have plenty of solar panels and multiple PowerWalls. Charging cars as you know demands a...

    Model Y Games

    I have a Model Y and an Anker USB3.0 Data Hub plugged into glovebox with official Tesla Sentry USB Key, USB 8BitDo Wireless Dongle & another small USB Key. No issues. I will say when I put a larger USB drive on the USB bus I got issues with the infotainment system crashing.

    Wireless Xbox Controller not being recognized

    I've got it working..... at least for my Model Y in the UK. Once you have your controller paired successfully with the 8BitDo USB Wireless dongle, e.g a Solid white light must show and it will vibrate you are good to move to the crucial step of changing the mode I can only document an Xbox...

    Wireless Xbox Controller not being recognized

    Same here.... I have 8BitDo USB Wireless Adapter 2 (Black) with Tesla Model Y, Based in UK. Using Glovebox as per instructions. Controller works fine by wired USB cable in Glovebox. Pairing works fine but game like Sonic not recognizing the Controller to allow the Play button to appear

    Spotify - entering vehicle

    In the UK at least, the spotify app in the car allows you to use either a Tesla provided Spotify account (with paid premium connectivity) or you can sign in with your own personal Spotify account.

    Spotify - entering vehicle

    How many people are using the Tesla provided Spotify account and seeing the problem and how many people are using their own Spotify account. Can we narrow the problem down to the Tesla provided account I wonder???? Let me know if you've seen the hanging/blank spotify interface when using your...

    Spotify - entering vehicle

    I think you could be onto something here.... and if Tesla actually had a software support forum for customers that they were part of, they might be able to read, diagnose and reproduce more easily and then fix it.... They IMHO should treat their support not as 'one' via app/text messaging but...

    M3 with Laggy and Glitchy MCU

    I am currently raising this with Tesla via their only support method of booking an appointment, text back/forth. They need to find a better way to allow reporting and having people help them fix software bugs which this clearly is.

    Adding driver not possible

    I doubt it..... I've tried to help Tesla many times on a few things recently. They don't seem interested in admitting problems and working with you/informing you when they have fixed them properly. Other examples 1. Spotify - struggles to load the screen regardless of WiFi/Mobile signal...

    Adding driver not possible

    I don't believe so. Tesla fixed this issue for us at the back-end. No word of what they did or why it occurred.

    Adding driver not possible

    As previously stated, I had this error message at the weekend. Tesla Service Center folk have now resolved my issue by them adding my car to my wife's Tesla Account. No word of explanation of why the 'self add driver' method is failing but my wife now has her own Tesla account and MFA token...

    I thought you could only have one MFA token per Tesla account.

    Cannot invite driver

    Excellent. I was probably looking at an old article. Roadside assistance was one I read but if that's available, that's fab. Tesla Service Center by way of SMS messaging back/forth have managed to manually add the car to my wife's Tesla account/app and she can now control car and manage her own...

    Cannot invite driver

    Yep. My wife created her Tesla account as did I before we even ordered the car and we got the car on Saturday. It was associated to my account of course as registered owner. The only reason she wants to use her own account (which I believe there are a few downsides) is so she can maintain her...

    Cannot invite driver

    Tesla service center update : issue has been escalated in an internal team as they were unable to add the car to my wife's Tesla account either. A 2nd person has reported the same issue so I think it will soon be a known problem and fixed soon enough.

    Update from Tesla Service Center - they are raising the matter with an internal Tesla team as they have been unable to add the car to my wife's Tesla account themselves either now. Will advise when I hear anything new

    There is no longer "Add driver" in the Desktop Tesla Account section yet Tesla Service Center seem to want to tell me there is?

    Adding driver not possible

    Alas, this is what I followed exactly and I'm not the only person who is having this problem now. There is another thread, exactly the same issue. All I want to know is how I raise an App Support ticket with Tesla. I raised a 'Service' request and they just close it down telling me I should go...

    Adding driver not possible

    I am using the very latest version of the APP on both my phone and my wife. We both have iPhones. This is my thread where nobody has offered any solution as yet except why do I need a separate account. I need a separate account as a) it's IT / Security best practice b) MFA is setup for good...

    Adding driver not possible

    SNAP. I have exactly the same problem. Cannot find a solution and Tesla service request initiated from within the App simply tells me to add the driver in the Desktop Site which is clearly incorrect now. ( possibly was the case previously ?? ) Cannot find a solution without probably having to...

    Cannot invite driver

    yep. both latest versions of the app. Does not work. My wife created a Tesla account obviously without a car some months ago but this should still work. Tried deleting her account but it won't let us do that despite none of the reasons it says being true. How do you contact Tesla Support...

    Cannot invite driver

    Hi all, New Model Y owner. I am trying to invite my wife to be a driver using the app. When she clicks on the link I send her she gets this error message. Any ideas? She created the Tesla account some months ago but has tried logging out / logging back in / setup of MFA - nothing works Even...

    Anyone picking up their Y at Southampton tomorrow? A favour if so…

    Fair enough. For everything I love about Tesla and their products they really are missing the mark this week with their Model Y launch delivery events too. Inviting customers from all over the country to travel long distances is hardly environmentally friendly. If you asked everyone who has...

    I have a VIN assigned for a Model Y in the UK. I can see it in the source code. @Mr Miserable how do I get this to you directly so you can look at which boat it's on OR is there a method I can use to search the boats in transit
