I struggle with the corrective steering alert. I’ve never felt any force through the steering wheel. I really wish they release a “turn off nagging alerts or switch on 1990s mode”. It’s why I ride my motorcycle instead of the MY most days. No stupid alerts.

It can’t do it with USS. I’m not sure the 2022 March build has had them disabled yet. However, even if it could back out of the garage it’s not a feature I need. Nor can it park itself. It fails 100% of the time. Another feature I don’t care about.

Fair! I was late to the party on switching to an EV.

The annoying thing for us is that if the MY was sold/totalled it would be replaced with an MY again, probably the MYP. Charging network, efficiency, storage and performance out weigh the auto wipers and lights. Also, it’s cheaper than when we bought it last year. We’d just not waste our money on...

I was told the auto wipers and headlights are Beta by the SC?! The wipers work haphazardly in the day and at night they give up! The auto lights are hysterical. My wife was trying to avoid using the wipers until she got to a car cleaning place as the glass was smeared with bugs. She forgot...

I expect it to do more than my dog ($500) at ($80k) He brings me stuff I tell him to and a dozens of other call stuff and it only took 6-months of Coopervision and with no doggy network - unless the late night barking amongst his pals is them talking through stuff and sharing data? Meanwhile...

Late to the party Ford had hands free driving in the U.K. legally approved in April. Whereas we’re making self driving taxis Tesla does not… if only I could get my FSD money back.

I was committed as I had a renewal that was about £80 lower then what they offered online when I went to cancel. I stayed with them as it wasn’t worth cancelling for £80.

I had the same with Direct Line. £750 increased to £1200 figures. I called and they said that they couldn’t do anything. So I went online to cancel and it dropped by £400. 🤷🏻

I don’t have that on long motorway drives. However, there will always be a little to the left on non motorways due to the camber.

I’m on Octopus Fixed export and it’s been bumped to 15p per kW. Although, I’m moving to the agile as it may be a higher average.

Yes. I use iTunes, previously Spotify, streaming and my wife likes to check Sentry when she’s travelling.

If I ignore the crap EAP/FSD it’s a great car. If I think about it or try using it I hate it as I was sold an expensive pipe dream. So frustrating that Ford beat Tesla to the hands free in the U.K. and to add insult to injury monthly subscription!

Unfortunately, my company policy is cheapest mode and yes, the times that I could have got on a train and arrived at the same or earlier time than my plane has been depressing. Without getting packed, dressed and then undressed and unpacked to then get dressed and packed again when flying.

I want hands free as I paid Tesla ££££ but still waiting.

What we need is more chargers - estimated at 38k a year - that are cheap or subsidised by the government as so many people live in homes that won’t support a home charger. The U.K. is way behind. Instead of just relying on EV cars the government should be laying out plans for mass ground...

I agree. I don’t bother with EAP as I have to keep my hands on the wheel; so little benefit on long motorway drives. Ford making it a low monthly subscription is an awesome idea. Pay for it when you want it and no shelling out £6k+ for a pipe dream.

I I can’t use AP as it forces the automatic wipers to be on. They don’t work properly during the day so utterly hopeless at night. I can’t use AP on the roads that I live on during the day - it disengages almost immediately as I think it’s only for dual carriage ways not B roads. AP won’t...

If I could turn off the alerts it would stop me checking each time, that would be nice.

I had a 2008 Mini Cooper JCW and I loved the quirky interior+ super charger whine.

I have the MY with AB but when I mash the fast pedal there is no torque steer. When I do the same on the fast handlegrip on the bike the front wheel removes itself from the tarmac. 😜

I’ve never had a car do that unless after a turn. I must have owned the wrong cars. 🫤

I thought it was as well.

Depending on the car the speedo was typically blocked for me by the steering wheel and always at the higher speeds, officer, so it’s not my fault!

I follow the motoring news and I’ve seen the same. Downplaying the range of non Tesla EVs and avoiding reporting how bad the non Tesla charging is. They complain about the interior of the Tesla yet fail to understand that perhaps Tesla want to do things differently. I will not switch to another...

There certainly is and the world is a messy place.

China is leading in EV sales in their country and is making moves to break into the US. Tesla set up in China as they’ve been providing massive subsidies/tax breaks for EV tech. China couldn’t compete with ICE so played the long game and went the BEV route and are years ahead of the established...

I’ve fully stopped using AP since they’ve forced the useless autowipers when engaged.

As long as there is a data connection. I have little to no data coverage where I live so no voice controls.

Ah the classic “software will solve all issue”. SC told me the same. Cameras do not work at night time for me. All obscured. But it’s within spec and over the air updates will make them better. Nothing has changed in the last 12-months.

Or pitch black night in rural country, no street lights. All normal behaviour and within spec.

No way to escalate. If you read the small print their auto wipers, auto lights and pretty much everything else related to software is BETA. They pointed it out to me several times.

M This is normal according to SC on my March 22 MYLR. The SC said there isn’t anything that can be done. I live in a rural area with no street lights. All cameras are disabled/obstructed, emergency braking disabled and auto wipers don’t work etc. Doesn’t make a difference if it’s a clear...

I don’t have Teslafi so I can’t be 100% sure on the car not being pinged. When I’m away from home Octopus doesn’t ping the car. It appears to only happen when plugged in to the home charger as it sets the scheduling for charging.

Is an energy supplier in the U.K. they have an API to the Tesla app. It means they control charging the car and give super cheap per KW pricing. I set the level I want in the car and the app and they manage it. It’s worked really well and I don’t bother with the scheduling in the Tesla app.

Not sure. Cameras do not solve driving conveniences for me. Auto wipers, EAP, Auto lights do not work in my area. Tesla is fully invested in them so I doubt they’ll improve for some time and no doubt will require hardware upgrades. The competition is heating up. However, the seamless...

I leave it to the Octopus app to manage. It’s been flawless since August.

It was a one tap for me as well at the bottom. I don’t recall multiple menus.

I’d substitute EAP/FSD for a stalk to control the wipers if I was offered one.

Exactly!

Not in the U.K. the government has frozen tax bands for the next few years. Higher pay means more tax for the government and less for the worker. When you add in inflation the workers who pay the governments wages are being hit hard. The government recently said that they want to help those...

Especially, those that do not have a home charger. The government needs to remove the ridiculous 20% vat on public chargers and invest in more charging infrastructure. However, stats that I’ve found is the average daily journey using a car in the U.K. is ~ 20 miles. I’d happily have a 150...

Fair. I suppose a 50% drop after three years is typical for most cars. The supply chain issues have thrown a curve ball but it will be sorted in a year or two and then I’m sure there be a big correction in used car prices. The fear of battery degradation and people believing they need a huge...

I’m not worried as wet fueled cars are being fazed out. They’ll be a strong secondhand market for well cared for EV models like the MY during the next few years. Regardless, of newer non Tesla brands hitting the market over the coming years. Teslas charging network is reliable. It’s a shame...

Calibrating the cameras doesn’t make a difference. Constant errors and no emergency braking and EAP won’t work. The software is BETA. I.E., Tesla use that to explain why things don’t work. Where I live we don’t have street lights for many miles/hours of driving. The cameras do not work. I’ve...

Manual wiper controls HUD

Try all the above voice commands with no cell/data signal. I gave up a day or two into ownership.

sometimes I have had to reboot the garage door opener two or three times these past 10 -months. But considering it’s opening and closing several times a day, the homelink has been flawless.

He needs all the support he can get! Maybe it’ll go viral.

You make an interesting point. We can only use AP on a small part of our driving and that’s typically on highways for hundreds of miles that are basically straight. Probably 5x a year. Low accident rates on these types of roads according to government reports. Whereas the majority of accidents...
