AA or Green Flag, too. Road Hero, pucks, plug kit, compressor, (haven't we done this to death? SEARCH)RAC membership card.
Because the Tesla Roadside Assistance (Roadside Assistance) in the UK is more limited than the more complete options provided by the breakdown firms. For example, it says that it only provides 'warrantable assistance' (if the failure is not under the warranty then you get charged), and does not make any provision for your onward journey or taking your car any great distance (and only to a Service Centre). It also limits flat tyre services to 50 miles. Elsewhere I've seen wording to the effect that they try to have loaner wheels available, but don't promise to have them.I was under the impression new Teslas come with roadside assistance for the duration of the 4 year warranty period. Why would RAC membership be required in addition to that?

Yes, read it a few months ago. To be honest, 50 miles for tyre service is pretty decent for all but the most far-flung corners of this little septic isle so I'll take my chances. If it doesn't work out, I'll report back and eat humble pie!I'd read the above Tesla document carefully and decide if that meets your needs. It's not very comprehensive or clear as to what they commit do do.
Maybe I’ve been fortunate, but in the past 20 years I’ve only had slow punctures, screw nails etc. and leaks all of which have been able to be dealt with the a portable compressor whilst you get to the local tyre place. So I just pack one of these in the boot-well.What is the general view on what product/equipment should be carried in a M3 in the event of a puncture, in order to get you to a tyre repair centre?
Does the jack in the Road hero kit fit under the jacking points OK? What is the price of these?
The service is also massively under resourced and for the cost of AA/Green Flag etc just not worth the saving. Sitting on the hardshoulder waiting for Tesla or spending £50 ish a year for a properly resourced breakdown service? A no brainer for me.Yes, read it a few months ago.

The jack they supply is of no use to a Tesla.I will be carrying a Road Hero Space saver in the boot, quicker for me to change the wheel than faff about with puncture repair kits lol
Search for "cheese wedge" in this community for item to raise the car to get a jack under it. Easy mod to one puck for Road Hero jack. In fact, SEARCH for all this info passim.Does the jack in the Road hero kit fit under the jacking points OK? What is the price of these?
