I did a small test payment first then two large payments a day apart because of my bank's 25k daily limit.

Tesla have demo 3 and Y police cars, they were both at the Trafford Centre collection point a while ago, at least one moved to the new service centre in Manchester. They have a roof bar which clamps to the top of the B pillars, so as not to interfere with the door glass. I didn't see how they'd...

That sounds like you've now got Easy Entry switched on.

Tesla Bjorn is currently on his live YouTube channel testing a Highland at night - matrix lights are definitely working for him.

Do you have AA or RAC cover? They have multi-fit spare wheels to get you home. I've not used one so don't know how long they'll lend it etc, but if you have cover, talk to them.

I've heard a rumour that the Manchester North HQ site will "open" this Monday 15th. I don't know what "open" means in this case though - if it means anything at all. It could be first staff working onsite, or the site opens for customers, if so will the superchargers be available for use? Could...

If you use teslafi or similar you can easily look back at all the little charge sessions that added up. I find that with sentry mode switched on, IO often falls slightly short of the target I set, having hit the target early and then sentry mode uses up 3 or 4% by the requested deadline. I...

In the Tesla app (upgrades / accessories) they show as £22 from Tesla for me, and it lets me add them to my basket, not going further as I don't need any yet.

I had a spare hour today and went for a tour of the future Manchester sites. Birch services eastbound still sat there with 12 v3 waiting further work, presumably the incoming supply, and Birch westbound also with 12 v3 in the same state - the one nearest the new gridserve chargers (still fenced...

My guess is that the end charger is also a disabled bay, so they are trying to place the pedestal for maximum wheelchair access around a parked vehicle.

They've been really unlucky: https://www.kbbreview.com/38693/news/edinburgh-retailer-heartbroken-as-floods-strike-for-second-time-in-eight-months/

No key card is needed, the invite alone is sufficient for the car to be added to another Tesla account. If you have PIN to Drive enabled they'll need to have the PIN.

Yes, very simple, seemed very automated, and able to book pretty much for the next day. Latest one I booked an afternoon slot 12:30 - 16:30. The ranger rang me in the morning to see if I was available early, and despite me being out they came to the private car park at a completely different...

So far I'm following Tesla's instruction to do it every 6250 miles, my Y has just had its second rotation. If you don't want to do it yourself, a Tesla ranger will do it for £47.52 - front to back swap, not X pattern. I figure it's less than a tank of diesel and it is good to have someone...

There are signs of activity at the new Manchester Tesla centre on Ashton New Road / Rowsley Street, including trenches across the car parks where the superchargers will be:

I don't see anything relevant in South Ribble's planning system.

Be-ev appear to use the same backend, also requested all users do a password reset after 10pm last night, and are also experiencing a very slow website/app at the moment.

I tried a new service request, however Tesla Stockport wanted to have my car for a day with no loaner offered, and not while I wait - so I wasn't going to be there to show them the problem, log in and out of Spotify etc to demo the fault, so it was going to be a waste of time and quite...

I notice that my latest supercharging invoice has the Ashton New Road postal address on it, so I presume that they've started to move in to the offices on the site. Has anyone been past recently and seen what's going on?

Thanks, you've prompted me to chase Tesla again over this. For me, now the Spotify refresh has arrived, I get 'Loading error' in the music tile when I try to play a specific podcast from any BBC podcasts that are in my Spotify podcast library.

Yes "To toggle gear chimes, go to Controls > Safety > Gear Chimes."

Both Android phone and also an iPad. I hadn't considered the apps would behave differently between the two platforms, I will keep an eye on it.

I've now had a couple of Smart Charges work properly this afternoon, started on schedule and didn't cut out, so maybe the issue has gone away. Next one dies at 11pm, still hopefully it gets a good charge overnight, else I'll be calling at a supercharger for longer tomorrow than I currently plan.

Problems here too for the last couple of nights. It keeps trying to charge during each scheduled charge window but then stops again a small number of minutes later. It hardly added any charge last night despite me wanting it to go from 55% to 90%. Trying again tonight is just as bad, it...

I'm seeing greyed out BBC podcasts in Spotify on my November 2022 model Y too. Initially the free month of premium connectivity showed on whatismyipaddress in the browser as an Amsterdam KPN IP address, so no big surprise that the internet thought the car was outside the UK. I chose to buy a...

Anyone like me to use their code when I sign up?

What did your insurance think of the yoke?

TeslaBjorn is suggesting on some of his recent YouTube videos that he thinks the MIG performance Y he's recently borrowed has much improved suspension over the earlier MIC long range cars even on 21s. Hopefully these are real improvements and they've made their way to the MIC LR cars too now -...

Also check rear headrests, the demo Y I drove had a rattle from one of them that was raised up, it was loose enough I could grab it and shake it and make the rattle happen while parked.

Looks like they've reworded it already, just came to me starting "Tesla Update - You now have the option to equip a tow hitch to your Model Y order..."

I've not seen it mentioned on here, but apologies if it has - search didn't find it for me- the delivery hub at the Trafford Centre has moved to the southern end of the site down near M60 junction 9. If you're expecting it to be by the superchargers then that's the old location.

Some visible progress yesterday at the Trafford Centre - looks like the mains feed has been connected in the trench, and a couple of Tesla staff were working on the chargers:

Thanks. Presumably I have to earn the right to be able to edit my posts as well - which is daft since newbies like me are more likely to make a mistake with an unfamiliar interface.

If only I could figure out how to like If only I could figure out how to like you're post, I would do so.

I didn't spot any Ys on 22, but there were plenty of 3s ready with 22 plates. A few of the Ys hadn't yet got their plates on them.

20+ at the Trafford Centre this morning...

No idea on Birch, but at the Trafford Centre the supercharger stalls look complete, and the high voltage enclosure looks tidy, however if you follow the trench across the car park, it is fairly obvious what remains to be done...
