Hopefully some positive news that matrix headlights may be enabled soon! https://www.notateslaapp.com/news/1406/tesla-model-x-set-to-receive-matrix-headlights-software-support-on-the-horizon

Not that far off though, bearing in mind the massive price and performance difference!

Yes, supposedly we’re all driving around like lunatics! Speeding convictions are a way of life if you’re a Tesla driver apparently! I really don’t understand where they get their prices from? Its not like I’m driving a Ferrari/mclaren etc!!

Waaaaaaat!!! Just received my insurance renewal from direct line today for my 2021 M3P. £1421 this year, compared to £850 last year!! We’ve had no accidents, claims or convictions, so nothing to justify this price hike. They said the increase was due to the number of claims and convictions by...

My missus has a 6 month old Peugeot e2008 GT as our second car, to my M3P. Again I was very surprised just how good a car the pug is! Agree with the app being rubbish, but last update seems to be a big improvement on responsiveness. Many positives though and a great little car, with lots of toys...

Same here. Set off this morning from home in Huddersfield and mapping changes to blank grey tiles around south Leeds. Over the weekend it did it from south Leeds all the way to the east coast. Did a 2 button reset at the coast and all was fine on the return journey. Yet this morning same again...

Very nice!! :cool:

First proper drive today with 2023.2.12. As I approached south leeds a massive area of the map changed to the dreaded grey tiles. Parked up in leeds and locked the car. Set off back again an hour or so later. Still a map full of grey tiles until heading back westbound on the M62 near birstall...

Nice one! I have a white M3P with both near side Uberturbines scuffed (thanks to the missus.) Would be great to see how the gloss black looks on the white. :-)

Post some pics when you get chance with them on the car, think it will look quality!

I wasn’t aware of that? And no mention of it on the IO wiki thread on here, from what I can see? Still think we’ll be better sticking with IO as we have 2 EV’s. But just switched our gas to the octopus tracker tariff which is great, so may even look at that for electricity too?

Just had this email through this morning, as my IO fixed tariff is coming to an end on 30th March. Basically my IO rates are changing from: Peak unit rate: 29.82p / kWh Off-peak unit rate: 7.50p / kWh Standing charge: 26.82p / day New rate as of 30/3/23: Peak unit rate: 40.23p / kWh Off-peak...

Just switched my gas to tracker this morning, all thanks to this site! Thank you for the info! 6.57p today, instead of 10.24p I was paying on standard flexible. No brainer!! :cool:

Do they do a TO version though? Also, with 255 there will be loads more rolling resistance. Had sport contact 5’s on a merc in the past. Decent tyres but wore faster than the Michelins at the time.

Both are the same 235/35/20. From what I’ve read, the contact patch and width of the michelin is more like a 245 than 235? I think it’s 9 as apposed to 8.5 wide? Obviously performance wise the Michelin should be better. However, I’m guessing range may suffer slightly due to more rolling...

Knowing Tesla they could dish out free supercharger miles to you? All I’m saying is there are far more cars with basic autopilot in the uk, compared to EAP and FSD cars. Esp when EAP isn’t even a thing in the US. So a simple software update for the masses to EAP so it becomes normal autopilot...

I agree, especially in relation to activation of the matrix lights! The wipers are still as useless as ever! Just saying that having the chance to keep autopilot on when changing lanes, instead of having to reactivate it each time, would be a big improvement. Especially when cars much older or...

For a performance car with around 500bhp 23k is pretty decent. Having previously had BMW M and Mercedes AMG cars with similar power, it would be around half that, esp rears! I also drive sensibly, and only push the car hard on country roads, away from towns and cities. But also, everyone’s...

With the recent updates to the Polestar 2 and Tesla price cuts, do you think we’ll get EAP as standard in the UK to keep the model 3/Y competitive? Although the Shanghai built cars are better than US, they’re still well short of the likes of BMW, Mercedes and Volvo etc. And with rivals catching...

I currently have the new Michelins on the back and the Pirelli’s on the front, as in the pics, so can see a direct comparison between them. (The fronts are due in tomorrow, as ATS only had 2 Michelins in stock.)

For comparison

Yes that’s my previous experience on other cars too, the Michelin’s were much better in wet and cold conditions.

I’ve just replaced the stock Pirelli P zero elect’s to Michelin PS4S TO on my 2021 M3P. The Pirelli’s lasted 23k, so have no complaints. I’ve always gone with Michelin on all my previous performance cars though, mainly due to longevity and feel. Though I have to admit, I much preferred the look...

Hi! So sorry to hear about your bad luck. At least the culprit has rightly offered to pay. I had the same thing happen to me somewhere but didn’t notice till I next washed the car. Unfortunately no footage was recorded for it by the time I’d noticed and checked through the video clips. I can’t...

As Drew57 said. It takes much longer to get a schedule now, as it’s a way of lowering battery drain due to not waking the car as often. Plug in as normal, then stop the charge via the Tesla app straight away. In around 30-45mins max look at the octopus app again and the IO schedule will be...

I’ve had the same issue, and had to disconnect the car and reconnect as it wasn’t showing the io schedule and just immediately began charging at peak rate. Now I just connect, then stop charge immediately via the Tesla app. Then if I check the octopus app 30 mins or so later the charge schedule...

Matrix headlights!! The hardware is there, so just write the damn software to enable them Tesla!

They have recently changed the law in the US to allow matrix headlights on their roads, so let’s keep our fingers crossed there’s an upcoming software update that enables the matrix operation for everyone. It would be a quick fix to solve the rubbish all on or off nature of the existing auto...

Just normal car shampoo on my Uberturbines. You rarely use the brakes, so the wheels and even calliper’s stay pretty clean, just blast off with the pressure washer.

It happened to me a couple of days ago. I just swiped the app away then went into it again, so it reloaded. All sorted straight after doing that.

Everyone else on I.O got this free charge tonight? :cool:

I have a MIC Oct 2021 M3P

I know the feeling! With the missus and 3 daughters, you can imagine the usage from hairdryers, straighteners, TV’s, all lights on constantly, including the heating! If the police helicopter flew over our house, they’d think there was a cannabis grow on the thermal camera with the amount of heat...

Looks like it’s heading for the bin then! Lol. Is there any way to get usage in pounds and pence per hour/day on the octopus app, instead of just kwh’s? On the SSE app you can get a figure for every half an hour, and the days total. (I’ve got the smart meter readings recorded every 30mins.) I’ve...

Yes I wouldn’t mind at all if I could just manually input the peak and off peak hour rates so it represented the I.O figures, but there’s no option at all to set figures yourself in the settings (as far as I’m aware?)

Not that I’ve noticed myself? 2hrs ago in the rain, the car did it’s usual phantom brake shenanigans as I passed a hgv travelling in lane two, as I was in lane three. I usually cover the accelerator to prevent this, but wondered if there’s been any improvement in the latest update? Nope! :-(

Does anyone know if my in home display (supplied by SSE) will continue to work now I’m on I.O? It’s a Geo in home display. When I go to the tariff section (shown on the pic) it has the correct standing charge figure of 26.82p for me. But obviously the current tariff section is incorrect, as it’s...

Thanks for the replies guys. I’ll just hit the delay by 3hr button on the dishwasher as I go to bed, just to be safe. At least that way I know it’s definitely the off peak rate, and I’m not chancing anything.

Quick question, sorry if it’s a dumb one. I’ve been given my charging schedule for tonight, which starts at 10pm. Obviously this is outside the usual off peak hours. I know that the car charge from 10pm will be charged at off peak, but does that include household appliances too? For example, can...

Luckily I signed up yesterday. P 29.82 / OP 7.5 / 26.82 SC

Result!!! Glad you got the new ones. :)

I think you’re onto a loser straight away regarding the rear lights if you get a M3P. As they sell less numbers, there are far more earlier builds being sold new which have the old lights. I picked up my new M3P in October, and it has the old lights. A friend of mine picked up his M3LR the week...

I’m guessing the matrix headlights that the late M3’s have will be the same as the Y’s. (Samsung matrix lights if I remember correctly?) Just a case of writing the software for it. I’m guessing there’s not been a rush by Tesla because it’s a European thing, and not allowed to be used in the US...

Ok no problem. You’d just said in your original post about looking at your link would’ve given us the answer’s. (Answer’s rather than answer, as in more than one question.) As the other person had only asked one question, I thought you were referring to both of us. Anyway, apologies if you...

Thank you, just the kind of helpful information I was looking for. :-)

I did, hence why I clearly said I knew about the 1 vehicle rule and it only being compatible with Tesla for now. I wasn’t asking what their official blurb said, I was asking if there was a way around it for two vehicles, from people who may be in the same boat and who are currently doing the...

Just switched over to octopus energy today, and so I’m on the standard fixed rate until I can switch to Go or Intelligent octopus. Just wondering what everyone’s thoughts were on what I should (or could) choose? My circumstances are: I have an Oct 2021 M3P, and have a Wallbox pulsar plus...

Thank you so much! :-)

Can anyone send me their octopus referral, thanks in advance! :-)
