    Relocating to UK - take Tesla with??

    I am reading through the posts and trying to summarise everything. If you only change the SIM on board but not the firmware to UK setting, you will get: And if you change the firmware to UK version with help from third party, you get: I think Rowfam has the MCU replaced in UK, not sure how...

    Extended Service Agreements

    my main worry is the MCU too, it failed once in perhaps the 2nd year. it developed self awareness after a firmware update and decided when to sleep or wake up for work, it became a bit difficult to drive without air con / GPS and to park without the rear cam without the MCU, a Tesla is not just...

    Hong Kong CLP (ABB) triple-standard combo charger tested (Jan 2016)

    I recently tried to use one of these CCS DC CHAdeMO combo.

    about pothole, have you tried this one? Highways Department - Road Damage or Defect Report they will respond by urgent repairs, although most of the time they turn a pothole into tiny bump (i guess a small bump is still less damaging)
