I am not sure if anyone can help me ... I need to find out when the UK Manual added the tow bar limit of 55Kgs for accessories. I am not sure how I can establish this given that the manual is online.
In particular, I am trying to find out if this limit was already in the manual prior to January 27th 2020 (being my order date). Maybe someone downloaded a copy of the manual for reference prior to that date and can check to see if this limit was mentioned even then? Maybe it is mentioned in some release notes?
I am asking because when I ordered the factory fitted towbar, the only thing I was told was a 910Kg limit... I now realise that this is a limit for towing a trailer or something with wheels, and not a limit for something simply supported on the tow bar like a bike rack which Tesla considers an accessory. I feel somewhat upset as I had spoken about bike racks in this same 910Kg conversation, and noone pointed out there was this lower 55Kg limit.
The issue with 55Kgs is I do not think I can get all four of our bikes on a rack within that weight.
And I am thinking if this limit was only added to the online manual after Jan-2020, then I can at least try and speak to Tesla to see if there is anything they can do for me.
Thanks for your help!
