    New owner here. Got a question…

    WOW! I must have an extremely heavy foot. I’m averaging around 260-270 wh/m in this weather. My best being around 240! I’m on 23k miles and my overall is 289 wh/m although a lot of that is motorway journeys.

    [UK] Spring Software Update

    You’re constantly belittling, moaning and object to anything positive about Tesla though. Literally every time I read your post, it’s always negative. You have to be a developer or in software of some sort, I’m sure of it! So I’m not quite sure how you’ve ended up with 2 new cars from Tesla. 😂

    Any idea when this will start rolling out?

    [UK] Spring Software Update

    Big update! Always like a fresh UI update, feels like a brand new device (in this case car) Hopefully some very good QoL performances

    Changes to Supercharging?

    I may be wrong. But I believe we had to pay the same prices as other EV’s on Tesla SC’s This email now says Tesla owners will have a “discount”? Is that right? I didn’t think as Tesla owners we paid a discounted price for owning one. I may be wrong of course. I don’t really use superchargers...

    Charging in Kent?

    Im in Kent. there aren’t many, but the good ones: 1. Maidstone M20 - 6 - V3 chargers. You’ll be lucky to get a space here, likely to be waiting 10 mins for a space. 2. M2 J4 Medway Services. Brand new V3 chargers. 12 stalls - really good services, can easily get space to Dover and To...

    It doesn’t necessarily have to be rain-x. Any car shampoo or wash will have the same effect. They all have some kind of protection which can cause that sheen.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    I got my update last night. Went for a drive and was impressed with the lights, it does seem the low beam headlights position has changed (I manually changed mine to be a touch lower to stop blinding people) so I may change them again if I notice it starts to blind people. As for the...

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    I’m on IOS. I’ve managed to reconnect back to my car. I completely started the process again and made sure I had WiFi connected to the car. Worked like usual after the second go. Took some time to test the charge, but did it in the end.

    Should of read this thread before I did anything... I thought "Oh I have a spare 10 mins, ill try and reconnect with Octopus" Getting multiple errors after enabling the virtual key. Now I cant "test connection" for some reason.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    Tbf, watching Netflix and Disney all together while the car is charging is nice. To add my daughter and I play a game where we try and guess which noise the car will make when it locks. It’s fun with younger children of course

    It still amazes me how the same people every new update seem to get the release first! Is it still pot luck or now theres a science to it? Very much looking forward to this update.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    v4.31.0-2552 - if you go to the app store and search the app, itll ask to update it.

    [UK] 2024.8.x

    On a quick note: for anyone who had issues with the car taking an age to “wake” when you load the app. For me it’s seems to be fixed with a Tesla iOS app update. Much better performance and back to the norm for me

    I’ve manually adjusted the headlights to sit lower and it’s much better. Think I adjusted both by 4 “clicks” of the steering wheel button

    The best thing about a Tesla is there are no servicing costs…

    FWIW - Audi A6 MOT & Full service from dealer - £839 Don’t think the prices quoted here are *too* bad

    New battery cost for a model 3.

    I’m sure you’ve probably explained already. But how/why have you gone through 3? Have Tesla explained at all?

    21” Uberturbines - Touch up paint in UK?

    I used standard Matt spray can paint I bought from Amazon. Just do a quick search and look at reviews. My one is a perfect match! I would recommend to clean the rash as thoroughly as you can as the paint sticks better.

    Matrix headlights - finally???

    This thread has just become like the many others on here. Just people moaning for the sake of it. Same culprits. For what it’s worth- my headlights haven’t blinded anyone (that I know of) nor have I been blinded by any Tesla. (I drive multiple cars - different manufacturers - a year)

    Creak Creak!

    I had the same noise! It sounds like metal hitting metal. I soon realized it was the rear head rests. I pushed both head rests down and the noise stopped. Otherwise I would speak to Tesla about it!

    Great news! Can only judge when it’s released, but another good addition to the car I never had when I bought it.

    2023 Holiday Update

    Exactly. You are suggesting Tesla add more features to basic AP by re-engaging AP after a manual lane change. Which defeats the purpose of the upgrade to EAP.

    2023 Holiday Update

    From a sales point of view makes no sense… Why would anyone think “oh yeah, ill pay an extra £1000 (or whatever it is) to do my lane changes by itself” 99% of people would just use the standard autopilot if the features you suggested are added for free… That’s why there’s obviously more...

    Matrix headlights - finally???

    Do you know who reported it? Want to see if the words use match what’s been said recently. Does the highland model have “special” hardware other older models don’t have or something? Can’t see it being an issue with older cars getting this update. Although it’s a very Tesla/Apple approach...

    Matrix headlights - finally???

    Looks like Matrix headlights are on their way (new model 3 only at this point) but I’m sure a new update can roll this out to previous cars with the hardware?

    Wiki UK and Ireland Supercharger Site News

    The rainham one would come under Medway services J2 on M2. No point them having the Medway services one and literally a mile down the road another supercharger in rainham. (That’s what I assume anyway) J7 is a good 15-20 miles away so I imagine we can treat the 2 seperate.

    Wiki Everything you wanted to know about Intelligent Octopus But Were Afraid To Ask

    Ahhh right this explains a lot. IO started a charge for me at 11:30 but stopped after an hour. I didn’t know it would resume again so I manually started it thinking it wouldn’t start a charge Simply put: I don’t trust the system enough yet. Maybe one night I just let it do what it needs to...

    Wondering if anyone recently found if this IO smart charging through the octopus app actually worked? My “window” was 3am to 4am. I checked my phone at 3:20am and the car didn’t start to charge. So I manually charged it through the app. To my understanding - I though the IO app does this...

    First winter. Wh/mi ouch.

    the whole of summer I’ve been playing a game of how long I can get my overall wh/mi down to. 16,500 miles I’m on 289wh/mi That’s now crept up to 290. Winter truly kills any efficiency in all cars!

    Has anyone’s low/high beam lights adjusted? Previous to this update, I found the normal low beam lights were too high and noticed they were blinding on coming traffic or if I were sitting behind a hothatch (corsa, Clio type vehicles) I moved the lights down and it’s solved the issue but...

    Exporting at 15p - Help please

    I am thinking about purchasing a PW. Is it honestly that good? So you just self enter the buy and sell rates and it will automatically work out what to send to grid and what to use for the house? Theres no special config you need to do in app / tell the app to do it this way? Thats honestly...

    So… Highland is out…

    I like the refresh of highland. My only issue is the stalks. Now I can understand the drive selector. Thats fair enough, having it on screen really isnt that big of a deal. (I mean everything else is) The one I dont like is the indicators... How do you indicate on a roundabout? Dont think...

    Solar Panels UK - is it worth it?

    Hello, I’ve been thinking about solar for a few months now and I have a few questions. I have been proposed an “emphase” system - which essentially are panels which aren’t reliant on each other. They have their own seperate inverters on the bottom of the panels meaning each panel can be...

    Q2 Collections - new owners thread

    How’s everyone finding the cars? As you guys are coming up to 1 year with the cars, have you thought about changing tyres? Doing a service etc? I got mine in November and was wondering if I should book it in with Tesla to get a service. Is there much point?
