    Insurance Company ‘By Miles’

    I have noticed a new Insurance Company in UK designed for connected cars such as Tesla. The premium is directly linked to the miles driven, which for Teslas is automatically collected. It seems like a good deal for low mileage drivers, as it quoted me a price £200 less than my Direct line...

    Ionity Charger Sites in UK [megathread]

    As the expansion of Supercharger sites in the UK seems to be slowing down, it is good news to see Ionity is gettting into its stride in UK. Looking at their website they are currently building six new rapid charger sites to complement the three already operational at Maidstone, Milton Keynes and...

    Aero Wheels

    They came from the states. The white wraps were from Amazon.com, and the black wraps from ebay. There are tons of utube videos showing how to apply them. Pretty straightforward.

    Supercharger Charging Rate on Model 3 ?

    Thanks for the replies. As I said, I usually charge at home, and this was an experiment to test out Supercharging on my car, which is why battery charge was not very low. I had just met a friend in a pub in Bracknell for lunch ‘ The peacock farm ‘ , and decided to try out Wokingham Superchargers...

    Supercharger Charging Rate on Model 3 ?

    I usually charge my Model 3 at home on Tesla wall charger, but today I charged it on a Supercharger for the 1st time to check out that it would charge ok. I used the new Superchargers at Wokingham, sixteen bays, and I was the only one there ! The charging went without a hitch but I was surprised...

    UK Owners with v10?

    One reason why we have not got smart summon in UK and Europe I believe, is due to regulations on operation. In US Summons operates over wi-fi. Here it operates by Bluetooth which is active over shorter distance.

    Vendor I am considering making UK/RHD Model 3 carpets/floor mats. Interested?

    Diamond Car Mats manufacture luxury car mats for Model 3 RHD. Bit pricy though at £165

    Tesla Model 3 Navigation

    Another disappointment is that I have heard we are unlikely to get the Enhanced Summons capability in Europe. In US communication between phone and car is by wireless, so can work over long distance. The EU insists on communication by bluetooth, which only operates over short distances. Maybe...

    Tesla Model 3 Navigation

    I have a blue standard plus model. Further to my earlier post. I also had an alarming experience using the latest Navigate on Autopilot software on the M25. On autopilot I decided to activate lane change by indicating right, with no car behind in the right hand lane. The car started to do the...

    Tesla Model 3 Navigation

    Just completed a trip in my 3 week old model 3 with latest software/hardware including FSD, on a crowded M25. I was disappointed to note the car did not pick up any of the variable speed limits on the overhead gantries. So much for latest navigation software. My old Model S with AP1 had no...

    The version 2 Power Liftgate from COzero has the beeper in a separate box which can be connected or disconnected to taste.

    I have a COzero power liftgate and my car has just had software update 2018.14.2. The boot opens and closes successfully from my phone every other time. Between each successful open and close there is a sequence where it only opens and closes a few inches !

    Did you manage to cut the wire without removing large tailgate panel ? If so how did you do it ?

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Hi Jayazusa, Glad you had a successful install. If you can close the liftgate with the keyfob without cutting a yellow wire, then you must have one of the latest harnesses from Cozero with the offending wire removed.
  17. Maranaz

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Hi, To get the keyfob to work, you need to cut the yellow wire on the latch adapter part of the harness. The photo below showscwhich wire. Your wires will probably be wrapped in black insulator. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/attachments/mmexport1510326917819-jpg.259306/

    Hi Mokuzai, Thanks for the information. Are many people on 2018.10.4 ? I am still on 2018.6.1. Have there been any reports of problems with the app from people with a standard Tesla power liftgate ? The fact that you can still control your powerlift ok from the main screen, suggests it might be...

    Hi Sawjer8888, If you follow instructions earlier in this thread for wiring up the connector you should have no problem using Tesla button instead of button with the kit. The only difference using Tesla button with COzero kit, rather than the standard Tesla power liftgate, is that the button...

    UK Model 3 - early Wall Charger

    I am confused by your post, you sound as though your model 3 delivery is imminent, but if you live in uk , early 2019 is earliest date predicted, and probably much later given current production delays. How does Tesla Model 3 charger differ from standard Tesla wall charger currently sold for...

    Hi Bretts, No I am going to install foot sensor at same time as fitting new COzero control box,so I only have to remove panels once. I am waiting until Spring. Has anyone fitted new control box and can confirm it solves Liftgate closing problem ?

    Just received new control box from COzero. I think I’ll wait for warmer weather, before I take panels off to fit new box and cut yellow wire.

    Hi Hungyip84, Good news on the remote fob, but I don’t recognise the wiring in your photo. Could you elaborate where in the harness the two sockets shown go. Thanks

    Hi AMPUP, Just read your comments after I had written mine. Your idea sounds good. Is this an actual button or a socket there in case you have the third row of seats.

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Just had a thought on how to intercept the liftgate button wire without having to remove the large panel at all. If I can trace the appropriate wire at the control box end, then the whole installation can be done in thenboot (trunk) area.

    Hi, I have just received the footsensor from autoease, It came in small brown box, and included a reasonable if non detailed set of instructions. The sensor was a neat black box with attached cable. The sensor needs to be screwed to the underneath of the Tesla behind rear bumper, with...

    Hi Hungyip84, Did the technicians ever come and sort out keyfob, and antipinch problems on the v2 power liftgate. By the way I have taken a punt on the foot sensor, but not arrived yet.

    Just checked my OEM Liftgate button, it doesn’t light up either. Perhaps we have wired them incorrectly. I copied Miken 79 instructions.

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    According to Federico, COzero can now supply a new wiring harness more suitable to a model S. I asked him if the kit should allow the liftgate to close using the keyfob ( as stated in his new draft fitting instructions ). Also, if the liftgate should stop closing when it meets resistance. He...

    Looking at AutoEase website, it looks like they are still selling version 1 of the liftgate without the latch opening motor.

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Yes Federico only responds intermittently, perhaps he is getting too many complaints. I just resend the same message again, he usually responds on the third or fourth attempt. I find it is best to get him on the formal contact address on the Cozero webpage. The one where you get the automated...

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Hi Mokuzai, No mention of the white wire. The photos seem to have been taken from your installation. If Federico insists that the key fob should work and that there should be resistance sensor, perhaps we should ask for a new control box. Can’t post the instructions here as it is a pdf document...

    Have just received draft instructions from COzero for installation of version 2 of the power liftgate kit. It seems to lean heavily on Mokuzaik’s installation. I have 2 issues with the kit. 1 The instuctions state you can close tailgate with keyfob. I can only close my liftgate using button in...

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Hi Mokuzai, The wiring harness for the installation is bizarre, I can only imagine it is not designed for the model S but another car altogether ! I agree a resistance sensor would be very useful. At the moment you certainly have to keep clear, so I have kept the beeper. I don’t know about a...

    I have finally installed my Cozero power liftgate Kit version 2, but my installation is somewhat different to Mokuza.

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Well done Mokuzai ! It does sound nice and quiet when closing . Which panels did you have to remove to fit the latch mechanism ? You used a remote with red button you used to close boot. Did you get that in the kit ?

    DIY Power Lift gate for Tesla Model S Walkthrough Video

    Hi Mokuzai, I assume you have removed the car panelling. I was wondering is there any wiring in the original harness near the Tesla lock connector which might have been left there to connect a liftgate button for cars with automatic liftgate ? In the same way as the wiring we are tapping for...

    Hi, I also have e-mailed Fredrico Gomzales about install of version 2. I am completely mystified by the wiring for the Lock Conversion.

    If you can make sense of the lock wiring from the text on the diagram , perhaps you can explain it to me. I am also unclear about the wiring of the power poles, which have a rubber grommet on the wires of each pole . Does this mean drilling a new hole in the liftgate for the wiring. Any advice...
