Howdy,
Had my M3SR+ delivered a couple of weeks ago - love it! Upgraded from a 10 year old Toyota Auris, so it's been quite the upgrade!
We've just had a pod point installed and I'm trying to figure out the slickest way to get it plugged in on a night. Here's how my routine currently goes:
Reverse onto the drive, tap to open the charge port, get out the car, walk round to the pod point, start to unwind a few lengths of cable... the car detects that I've left the car and locks itself (and the charge port!). I walk back to the car and fumble to get my phone out my pocket, unlock it, find the Tesla app, open it, wait for it to wake, go into charging, open the charge port, plug in! Swear lots throughout.
Obviously I don't have a button on the charge cable to open the port. What are other folks' processes to enable a slick charging routine?
Also, what's the slickest way to unlock the charge port on a morning? Is it a case of fumbling with the phone app again OR getting into the car and pressing the unlock charge port button? Would be great if you could tell it to unlock the port once it had finished charging, or at a set time.
