    After purchase when can I start using the Tesla charging network

    ABRP allows you to specify/exclude Tesla superchargers, for non-tesla rapids select CCS Lots of options to play with so plan it out comfortably by setting your starting charge level lower than expected. You're going a fair distance but well served by the motorway network of rapid chargers

    After purchase when can I start using the Tesla charging network

    Also worth asking the dealer to make sure it's charged to 100% before you collect it - most dealers regularly selling EVs seem to have 7kw home/destination chargers now. This increases your options for first required stop, if you definitely can't get home on a single charge. I'd also...

    After purchase when can I start using the Tesla charging network

    Been there, done (not) that. Unless the owner/seller can transfer the car to you in the app on the day you are locked out of Tesla superchargers for a while. Tesla will transfer the car to you but you need the FULL V5 in your name. The team responsible only work weekdays and when I did it last...

    In car equipment

    Depends when the car was built but if a 20 plate it is too old.

    App nor octopus IO not waking up model 3

    I'm seeing connectivity issues when driving around, seems to be area/location based (though I tether my phone for data most of the time so minimising the impact) But no issues with Tessie or IO charging. IO in particular is rock solid and starting each charge slot within 1 minute of the...

    EV servicing costs

    The other, somewhat understandable, reason is to maintain fore/aft grip balance as the tyres wear. If you run the rears low first you are more likely to get oversteer which tends to be harder and more dangerous for the average driver to deal with. Rotating tyres keeps the grip balance steady...

    Yes I've found this, not new to 44.1 though. Now I have two of the same station in my favourites and I can't remove the one I can never tune to!

    How long to pre-condition?

    This Set the precondition departure time in the app and the car will automatically start the process at the right time. Only worth doing if on grid, even at peak rate If you watch the charger load you will see around 7kw at the start of preconditioning, dropping to 4-5kw when cabin is up to...

    Windscreen crack

    OE = original, branded part OEM = part made by the OE manufacturer, without car marque branding. Usually off the same production line (but not always!). In some cases this is really obvious, such as all the other markings being identical or where they've clearly ground off the logo that was on...

    [UK] Is it worth buying a 2019 M3P in 2023?

    I've had my early '20 M3P for about 4 months after going through the same decision cycle you are now. Motorway range is around 200miles with the weather at the minute, so can feel slightly restricted compared to an LR but the outright performance and the shiny trinkets do make it feel a lot more...
