Hope you’re having fun with your car. Wondering what range you’re getting considering few weeks of usage? Also do you find the car to be quick enough compared to dual motor version if you’ve ever driven one?

Gildford service centre. Despite all those initial appointment frustrations, their technician was very nice. And frankly no one will notice subtle colour difference unless you tell them. And don't clean the car often. 😋

Don't trust Tesla with courtesy car as they will send you a message at the 11th hour saying they don't have a spare car. Without consulting with you, they will push the appointment by another month. It happened to me many times hence mentioning it. May be they did this on purpose with me as cost...

Have a look at RSymons video about front bumper replacement for Model Y. It may work out to be cheaper to replace than repair provided you can order spare parts from Tesla.

Which company is this please?

Yes it increased by another 2k.

I don't think I changed this setting but I'll check. Thanks for this tip. 👍 The other problem is if a motorway is completely shut due to planned roadworks, it still routes on that closed stretch. It happened many times usally at night on M4 near London. In fact, I don't think it ever re-routed...

Tesla's navigation is very annoying and mis-leading at times. Few issues I observed so far: 1. On some roads voice navigation doesn't match with whats displayed on screen. For ex, it says bear left nearing an exit when the display shows you need to continue on the same road. I observed this on...

Looks like Model Y UK prices went up by £1k today. Anyone noticed?

There was a second update on iOS yesterday which seems to have fixed the calculation and consistency of amounts between tabs issues. Numbers are correct after I performed a charge. Let’s see how long this will last. 🤞 There are other issues still such as unable to stop the charge while it’s...

Yes. Its only the Energy Usage tab which seems to calculate correctly. Whether the charge in kwh is correct or not, we will never be able to tell.

Just checked but no luck. Looking at past reviews on app store, this is an age old problem. If they haven't managed to fix it until now, surely there is something fundamentally wrong with the unit's ability to capture usage stats.

Hypervolt developers probably time travelled to Oct 2022 to capture future price hike to calculate these astronomical figures. :) On a serious note, I don’t think it will ever be bug free until their developers stop making such school boy errors.

Anyone updated mobile app on iOS today? Is it me or any of you experiencing a new feature (bug) in main screen that shows amount charged in thousands £ when it should be in single digits?

Matte handles finger prints better with less need of regular cleaning.

As far as I know, Tesla charger is dumb as the car manages charging. May be that’s the reason why OZEV grant didn’t apply. May be an existing Gen 3 owner here can comment what the current situation is.

Smart Charging Regulation that will come in Jun requires future devices to be "smart" to manage load on grid. EO has 2 star reviews on app store and it needs seperate earthing and a charging cable if you chose to get non tethered version. You may be better off getting Tesla's charger for...

If you know which wallpoint they had previously, it can be a straightforward install provided the same model is available and it has same wiring needs. I think all of these wallpoints need CT clamping which are connected to main electricity connection via a seperate data cable or these days data...

Despite firmware update, WiFi is still unreliable may be due to mesh WiFi others also reported. Mobile app has other usability problems over and above energy tracking issues so it’s not over yet.

Now I see it after last night’s charge! Stats on main page are same as what I saw before the charge. Just can’t use the app as everything the app shows is gobbledygook!

I have been having stable WiFi and despite that stats just don’t make sense. What charger captures and what it calculates lack logic and consistency.

Call them and ask them to fix it and they will ask you to fill a form online so that they know which device is affected to attend to. Instead of just relying on their form, I called my installer and they came around with a new Micro SD card (apparently HV send them to installers) and after that...

Yes it shows different charge stats for different days for me so something is wrong for you with a different s/w bug. It’s of no use to me as it shows different stats between Energy Usage and Analytics tabs and I know that both are wrong. Shockingly poor s/w design, development and testing (or...

My unit received new firmware as my installer sorted it out for me. This made wifi connection reliable so no more switch off and on at the consumer unit. Whether the unit has new firmware or not, the mobile app always shows it as unlocked whenever its opened fresh. The way to replicate this...

Wondering if any of you noticed this strange problem. When I lock the charger, it says locked but when I close the app and re-open it or open it later without closing it, it shows that charger is in unlocked status. Either something is wrong with the app or it has short term memory.

And if you multiply the kWh number you would have entered in the app with your numbers: 12kWh and 19kWh, I'm pretty sure there will be calculation errors and mis-alignment - what your calculator says vs. what HV app's tabs say. Worth checking. I couldn't agree more as the experience is contrary...

You're probably right that HV kWh should ideally be higher than Tesla's and Tesla app seems to round up to nearest £ but Hypervolt calculation is all over the place.

I only had the charger for less than a week and its been nothing but trouble. Connection via the app is pretty much useless so hoping that they will fix it via the firmware update. Hypervolt needs to improve their app to make it easier to see firmware number and update initiated by user than...

My charger few days old so still getting used to it. Wondering how does the s/w update work as I can't find anywhere in the app regarding availability of new s/w updates. Is this something Hypervolt pushes?

Now that Tesla shopping is done, go for Tesla spotting by visiting a supercharger site.

Inevitable.

Plus sticky fingers around door handles.

I can confirm that MY's Geminis are made with chalk as I scraped them recently and very easily.

Its their problem to sort it out then. Good. I hope they put a new rim than repair it.

Ouch. How did that happen? Sorry to see this. I hope the rim can be repaired. Have you maanged to find exact tyre? I scraped one of my rims already while turning in to a road and hit a kerb. While it was getting scraped, I could feel that the rim was made with chalk than metal.

Plate without the frame looks nice. It will be interesting to see what you did with the front plate.

How to report issues after taking the delivery? Via service request or drop them an email with list of issues?

I feel they created more work for themselves.

I'm planning to fill holes with this if I go down the route of stick on plates: Holts LOYCAT13 Cataloy Knifing Putty Tube, 100 g : Amazon.co.uk: Automotive

01628 450660. If your pickup is 19th, they offer zero flexibility. Good luck.

Nowhere they mentioned anything about the amount of fuel or when they called. When they called, they asked I make sure I give them V5C, service history documents, two keys and of course the car.

Thanks. I'll call them tomorrow to explore further. I had Direct Line long time ago and Privilege for quite some time and they're not bad as a company to deal with. Worst case, I'll go with Admiral on a monthly basis and cancel once a good deal with another provider becomes available.

It will be great to see how you will be able to overcome the inevitable engineering challenge. 😋

Considering you as their existing customer, wondering if you knot this. I'm getting ridiculously high quote from DL on their website but will I get a better deal if I call them direct? Any idea please?

I prefer to stick plate directly to the front without any frame but it may potentially interfere with radar sensor. I believe UK cars still have radar sensor. If not, its an easy install. I can always experiemnt and if the car complains, I can try the frameless option you suggested as I've seen...

Looks really nice. Congratulations. Wish Tesla does something about those horrible front number plate frames.

Its better to take insurance on a monthly basis and switch to a better deal as we should see more insurers in Q2. Even if you pay fully, they will anyway refund remaining amount so its not the end of the world.

Thread title now changed. :)

Option 1 anyday if insurance companies don't penalise. Option 4 is where most of us eventually end up once the initial novelty wear off by autumn.

Thet will be a Car-Bow-Wow review! 🐶🚙😋
