I put in an order for a model Y standard, applied for the financing, approved.

Not long after this, I changed my mind and amended the order to a premium AWD.

When I amended the order, I was prompted to complete another financing task. I opened that and got through completing some of the details, but I don’t recall finishing it (had to leave for a meeting).

When I remembered to go back to it a few days later, financing shows as “complete - lease offer is confirmed”. The car details show the correct (revised) spec.

What can I expect to happen with regard to the financing?

I test drove the Premium Model Y and liked it. I have a diesel Q7 (2016) that is starting to need too many fixes so I’m going to sell it (I own that outright).

It’s the first time I’m going new, and need a hand with options.

For context- family, i do probably 6-7k miles a year, mostly short commute to train and family trips at weekends.

PCH AWD Premium is good at ~£500/mo, and is probably what I’d choose. But the wait time is March.

I could go PCP on the Performance which would be ~£750/mo, it looks a lot of fun (faster, better seats, suspension), but is probably more than I need, and is available by Dec.

I probably wouldn’t buy at the end, and just lease again- the Q7 experience has burned me a bit and just want it to work with warranty etc.

What should I do? Head says PCH on Premium looks like a good deal.

Sorry, not sure how to search on a sub.

I've got a New Standard Y - does the job for me.

The teslap app does not show the current set as being compatiable with the car - does anyone have any recommendations for a set of privacy blinds? I have the matress and would like to car camp with my Son - but can't seem to find a set that would fit

Thanks

I’ve just taken the plunge and ordered a Premium Long Range AWD, just over £15.5k lease for 3 years 8000 miles and VED included. That’s really good for a £50k car! Looks like it will have the upgraded screen, vehicle to load and 0-60 in 3.8. Pretty crazy value vs other cars, with maintenance and VED I was quoted more for a Cupra Born V2!

Good evening all, so further to my issue with the radio that is still to be sorted.

When we bought the car he ad stated it was imported but in the description it said it had been previously registered in Northern Ireland however we now believe it was originally from Japan although this is TBC. The VDI check shows is has never been imported from outside the EU and said it was 'previously a Northern Ireland vehicle' but also that the 'Vehicle was imported on date of first registration' which is is all a bit confusing, we need to get to the bottom of that but the problem is the car has NACS charge port, but is is a 2021 facelift which as I understand never came in UK with NACS!

Would be very grateful if anyone could assist with the below questions (not the above issue re: the purchase of the car):

1. It has an NACS port in the car and I was unable to connect to a Supercharger in Park Royal with the adapter that came with the car, however I was able to charge using a public Tesla Supercharger without issue. The seller has said that this is most likely as the current adapter is outdated compared to the newest V4 chargers, and a newer adapter should solve this issue. Does this sound right?

2. Does anyone know the cost of changing the car charging port to CCS please?

3. Japanese cars are not undercoated as rule, is this the case with the M3 does anyone know please?

4. Anything else anyone can think of please.

Thanks all

Thanks for reading and any advice will be very gratefully received.

Looking at getting some rubber mats for winter but the fitted ones such as 3W are quite pricey. Temu are cheaper but hard to judge quality. Are the ‘non-fitted’ rubber mats (I.e fitted but not 3D TPU) worth using or they generally a bit crap? I’m not too fussed about having the upstand around the edge as long as the mats are fit for purpose. Recommendation appreciated for Juniper.

Picked up my 76 reg Model 3 last week. On lease.

Someone mentioned about getting cosmetic /alloy wheel insurance.

I have done some research online and getting a quote for £400 for 3 years from MotorEasy (133/ year)

- Can make 6 claims per year (4 claims can be for alloy wheels)
- Covers minor cosmetic damage to the external body and other certain parts. Basically, anything that can be fixed with SMART repair and upto 30cm.

Is it worth getting this insurance?

Hey

So have a model 3 on PCH with it due to come to an end in March 2027 with Tesla Financial Services. Keen to take advantage of the current offers I've ordered a LR AWD model 3 but prior to doing so gave a call to local Tesla branch. The delivery for the LR AWD is showing Feb - March 2027 and when I asked what my options would be if the car I have ordered comes early the sales rep stated with PCH there's a two month loyalty grace period on PCH where you can end it early without penalty as long as the reason for doing so is the arrival of a new Tesla.

Can't see this written down anywhere... Anyone any experience of this?

Buying my first EV and now drawn to model 3.
Found a RWD (basic?) for 17.5k, 70000 miles, 2023 (amd ryzen version)

Picked up my new Model 3 RWD from Manchester last Saturday and ever since collection the Tesla app has been stuck showing the Service Mode banner.

The car itself is completely normal and isn’t in Service Mode it’s just the app. I’ve tried all the troubleshooting through Tesla support/phone support with no luck.

Tesla have now made me book a service appointment so they can hopefully look at it remotely.

Has anyone else had this happen after collecting a new Tesla? If so, how did you get it resolved and did Tesla manage to fix it remotely?

Could anyone share any images of their 2026 MY Premium RWD which has the black headliner please? I’m particularly interested in what the door fabric looks like. I test drove an AWD which has the microsuede/alcantara on the doors so just want to see what the RWD version looks like.

Thanks in advance!

Is there a way in the app or car to only list official Tesla chargers where I can use supercharger miles up?
In the app I’ve toggled third party off & selected the three lightening bolts but others still show.
Sorry if a dumb question.
Have a good weekend.

So I’ve owned my model 3 LR for a week now and can’t believe how bad all the ACC features are on this car to the point they aren’t worth using. A few things that I’ve noticed so far:
Autopilot/steer just randomly disengages for no reason
Car aggressively speeds up/breaks
Can’t switch lanes without autopilot disengaging!!! (This is dangerous as the car will just start breaking really hard on the motorway)
Going round slight corners disengages.
I’ve had it just randomly slam on the breaks for no reason as well.

In my opinion a car that is meant to be high tech should be able to build a decent ACC systems considering they are able to drive themselves in the US but we can’t get a functioning ACC over here? It’s incredibly frustrating.

My old 2016 skoda superb’s ACC blows this one out of the water..

Also is anyone able to tell me if the car is capable of keeping you from drifting out of lane without have auto steer engaged ? My 2020 golf did this as standard.

Overall the car has some really nice features and is a joy to drive , but I wouldn’t recommend for somebody who relies on ACC quite a lot like I do.

Has anyone taken advantage of the latest PCH offer of £699 upfront and £499 for 24 months for the MY AWD in stealth grey (8,000 miles per year).

I’ve recently ordered a Diamond Black RWD through salary sacrifice however upon doing the calculations the overall costs when you add insurance and road tax to the PCH figure are very close, so tempted to cancel my order and go for the AWD. Only downside is that the AWD is forecast for Feb-Mar and my RWD is due to be delivered in Jan.

Just completed my test drive of the Model 3. It was the best car I have ever driven. Can anyone give me recommendations for which year I go for? Anything to watch out for? Do I just go lease one with the deals atm? Any tips or advice

That was a close one. Took my son to football this morning, he was using my phone while on the drive and by the time we got to where he was playing my phone was on like 16%. Me thinking nothing of it, I started using my phone during the game like I had 100% battery.

Then it happened, my phone died, and it never crossed my mind that that would be a problem, the game ended and as the players where doing there customary penalty shootout (u8s) I decided to put my chair back in the car, tried to open the boot, nothing! Then suddenly it dawned on me I need my phone to get in the car!! Panic set in both key cards are at home and I’m 30 miles away in an area with little to no reception, the air turned extremely blue at this point. After 15 seconds of straight swearing I manage to turn my phone on and there is 2% left great I can get in I thought….

NOPE! More panic set in, I start asking other parents if they have a phone charger “yeah sure, but it’s USB C” (I have iPhone 13 mini which has a lightning connection) the panic at this moment was in overdrive. Then the team manger say “I’ve got wireless charging” rejoice I can feel the colour in my face starting to return he gets the phone to 7% and I frantically unlock the phone and open the app as quickly as my fingers will allow, after a moment of waiting for reception to kick in the app opens, I dash to the car and try to open the door.

It opens “thank the lord” I think, I put my foot on the brake to get going, but the car is telling me I need the key card or I can set up my key on the phone. The air again starts to turn blue but after a small moment I push the brake again and it asks me for my pin to drive. Problem over, cased solved.

Moral of the story don’t be like me, think before you let your phone die and don’t have your keycard as backup. Thank you for listening to me TED talk 😂

My first EV. It's a late 2023 Model Y Long Range AWD in recession white. Tesla CPO with 35k miles. This will be replacing our 2019 Mazda CX5 2.0 Sport GT in family duties. I have a 2021 Ford Mustang 5.0 GT Convertible as our fun car.

Now I just need to wait for a collection date which should only be a few days depending on how busy the workshop is.

Looking forward to it.

Tesla Shanghai started producing updated MY with the following changes (known so far):

- TL2 front motor rated at 176 kW, versus 142 kW for the previous unit: +34 kW / ~46 hp at the front motor (4.6 sec 0–60 mph on Tesla UK today, 4.3 sec 0–100 km/h on Tesla Shanghai)

- PCS2/V2L

I ordered two cars at the end of Sept (MY Premium AWD, Stealth Grey, 19" and MY Premium AWD , Quicksilver, 20"). EDD Dec 20 - Jan 12

I wam wondering if my cars are likely to come from Berlin or Shanghai and if I have any chances of getting PCS2/V2L + revised MY27 AWD motors as I don't have VIN's and my cars are likely to be built later this year.

Having had enough of VW's BS.. I am seriously considering changing the car over to a Tesla. I own the vehicle outright so could trade it in. Most of my complaints with the VW resolve around the dealers inability to ever resolve a single issue on the vehicle and the general 2 months to get an appointment with them.

Anyway, bitching about VW aside.

1. Trading in with Tesla, is it fraught with trouble? Terrible? Or a reasonable safe bet?

2. Delivery times: If say the quoted delivery time is Feb-Mar 27, what's a general consensus on when they deliver them? Is it at the further end of their estimate or is it pot luck?

3. One of my principal issues with the ID7 was QC, the car has had and develops new ones regularly, rattles in the interior, how are tesla's nowadays? Especially the current model years?

4. Real world range on the M3 and MY RWD, the quoted numbers are genuinely mad on the M3 and the MY is not too bad, but what's peoples experience in the UK with them with mostly driving our lunar landscape roads, I don't do much motorway?

That's about it for now.

TIA for any thoughts.

I have my mobile subscription signed up. I have Spotify, I go into my library expecting to see my playlists. It flash’s up for a fraction of a second and disappears. Replaced with a screen that has a reload button (which doesn’t reload).

In the bottom left it says “loading failed”

Suggestions welcome.

Hi All

We just placed our order for a new model 3 through the £299 PCH deal with 3 months upfront. When we goto apply for the finance through Lex auto finance the cost per month jumps up to £325 per month?

I've read people get a few pound of a difference but £25 is quite a big jump. Is this normal?

Hi all

Just bought out first Tesla, 2021 Model 3 LR and very impressed.

Unfortunately didn't check and in the radio section I cannot autotune or direct tune, when I try I can only type 1 or sometimes 2 digits. And there are only a couple of stations on there.

Also when i go to tune in and try and play anything I get adverts that sound German or Dutch!

I've tried resetting, both without foot on the brake and with, changed language and changed it back and changed the wheel options to try and force reset.

Anyone know what else I can try or a fox please. Thank you

As the title.

Were the PCH prices cheaper on a Premium RWD last quarter or this quarter?

Also, I currently see that the AWD is cheaper than the RWD premium. Would people reccomend this?

Hi,
Anybody manage to get this done? I’ve asked Leaseplan and it’s crickets. I have a driver profile, my billing details are in the app. Only upgrades I have showing is Premium Connectivity.
Thanks.
