Tesla Model 3 - V3.0

Never used it while driving. For me it works fine. Try the usuals delete data app, reinstall. Make sure you have good connection.

Anyone know how to get a Tesla Model 3 to talk to a Oneplus 8Pro? The Bluetooth link is needed for the car and the phone to allow talk and music. They won't behave so far.

In order to actually get music and answer calls etc in the car, they need to link up by bluetooth. And that’s the bit where my phone, a OnePlus 8pro, and the Tesla Model 3 don’t like each other! From what I’ve read online most recent Android phones will link with Teslas via Bluetooth. The onePlus 8pro seems to have a particular difficulty.

FSD is useless over here thanks to stupid EU implemented UNECE rules. The only benefit to having FSD in a new Tesla is to avoid disabling AP to change lane yourself.

I'd agree with most of your assessment but I did miss the second instrument cluster!

So after 20 months of ownership said goodbye to Blusain Bolt today off to its new owner in a hassle free transaction. Car was flawless, no issues, no panel gaps 😂. Never had a car before that had so few issues and worked so flawlessly. Also never had a car before depreciate so little during my ownership. Now I am out of tesla I would make the following observations.

The good

1. Acceleration is fun, but only for a while.
2. Instant response never gets old.
3. Supercharging network was great.
4. Never once used the granny charger or an on street charger.
5. Range anxiety is only in your head or for the unprepared.
6. Never steps out of line unless you want it to.
7. Good in snow.
8. Kids loved it.

The bad

1. Safety systems a bit overly aggressive to intrude.
2. Looks are only really alright.
3. Wind noise is a bit much on the motorway.
4. The subscription service is a nickle and dime plunder job.
5. Handling is a bit numb, never really eggs you on car really want you to relax into a cruise.

As far as I am concerned as a car its truly excellent but not without its flaws. Tesla owners can also be a bit fanboyish too. Doubt this is the last tesla I will own. EV's are certainly the way of the future.

Went back to version 3.10 of the Tesla Android app, v4 was unbearably slow and unreliable, was looking at the loading circle more than doing useful things with it.

Was a private sale on adverts...much better than the dealer offers. I think at the kment the model 3 is the hottest car out there. I lost only 7k from new in 20 months.

What did you move to? Stay in EV or back to ICE?

Excellent, that's a lvl up alright :)

Too small even if I had the Mula. Will keep the 3 or maybe get a new 3 or Y depending on when the latter happens.

Does anyone else have to pull down twice on the drive stalk to get it into drive?

Almost every single time I get in and out my foot on the brake and pull the lever down, nothing happens. Always works on the second go.

I am having this issue in the last few months, sometimes it works the first time and then it complains it cannot activate autosteer as I am used to double tap all the time to make it go into drive

Yep. Thats a whole thread right there.

I'm replying in this thread to the Tesla questions from the i4 discussion https://www.boards.ie/discussion/2058169693/bmw-i4/p4:

LR shows up as € 64,424

M3P is € 71,951, so €7500 difference for performance upgrade, from 4.4s to 100km/h and 233km/h max speed to 3.3s to 100km/h and 261km/h max speed,

plus:

1. 20’’ Überturbine Wheels
2. Performance Brakes
3. Carbon fiber spoiler
4. Aluminum alloy pedals
5. Lowered suspension

Also, track mode and ability to change front-to-rear power distribution

When I got mine, the difference was less than 4k, so it was worth it then. Even with 7500 difference, I'd say most of that will be recovered when selling, and in the meantime you drive a Performance.
