Yup. Next up - dash/steering wheel removal :(

100% excellent. The chargers are opposite the terminal door at the Folkstone and Calais terminals and in nearly all situations across France/Belgium and The Netherlands 90% of the chargers were empty. In most cases they were located with toilets/shopping/eating facilities attached. Charging...

There are a handful of different updates required as discussed on the forum, if it does not work - you need to get the dealer to fix it.

Nb. the aerial is also used for remote/app operation, service removed my shark fin to attempt to fix my connection issues.

After 'the' software update I've had no issues charging at Tesla chargers - last week travelled across the UK and next week travelling across Europe with a Tesla membership. These are the latest v4 charger AFAIK with screen and longer cable.

Sadly not a great experience with the Xuda (smartbox software) as it disconnects when going into reverse when the cameras take over the screen and then it’s not possible to bring back CarPlay. The dongle doesn’t work with the * button set to CarPlay on the steering wheel and it also froze...

I wanted to do 4 bikes > 50kgs too - the only way I could figure it out was to use a trailer of sorts, although I could not find anything reasonably priced. The other issues are how it would affect handling and also how to store it when at your destination. :-/

After also having issues with the cable - I've order a XUDA BT5 mini 2 in 1 (£18) from the 'official store' - will report back.

You are not wrong, I thought a 5k discount was amazing, now it's 10k! :-o

I would suggest a 12V battery monitor - very useful to check these things. Early on I charged with an old V1 Zappi on my travels and noticed that it drained the 12V after finishing a charge. It hasn't happened since on other chargers (or with any updates the dealer has applied).

I tried a while-you-wait first service (given my 1 1/2 hr round trip) thinking that it would be no more than an hours wait - how wrong could I be 3 hours or so later! Had they not quoted a stupidly low amount online and confirmed the amount at every stage I would have been pretty annoyed. I...

Fit well - there is a noisy whistle though at speed so I do not keep them on all the time. I tried tape and a looping rope with some success. I've mounted two Thule 591 bike carriers using the U bolts without problem.

I bought the Menabo RB1040 cheap and cheerful @ £28 at the time https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00IRAEBSC/ref=pe_27063361_487055811_TE_3p_dp_1

Yes, successful Tesla open charges across the UK for me too. Apart from once at Wokingham because the site was completely flooded! :-o (image from ZapMap but was just the same)

:-/ it seems hard to believe they could/would blanket restrict a brand/model of car after they had been working well. I don’t believe it impacts their chargers at all and it would be silly to pass up on income.

Even though it maybe safer, it’s generally frowned upon to put your passenger in a case in the boot :-D

That may have been the case ;) lol

Sports mode can certainly help with confidence powering upwards!
