Put it in your arm rest.
Oh really? That’s great thanks, didn’t fancy sticking anything to the windscreen
I stuck it to the left of the front camera module. The tag is a modern small black tag unlike the older bulky grey tag.
Have one of the old grey bulky ones, just left it in a tray in centre console and open lid when needed - MYP
Just ordered the model y. Sent the documents to the bank so hopefully it will all go well. 🫣
Just need to sell my own now.
Will be great, welcome aboard 👍
I thought I'd read that about the wipers alright, I done a soft reset today but it didn't give me the "improved" Tesla vison parking warning or wiper change. Looks like factory reset is the way forward. Thanks
Never thought of that, cheers
Hi Folks,
I hope to get a Model Y in a few months but I know nothing about the charger situation. Can somebody please advise me;
Hi Joni & Folks,
I am in the same boat but hoping it comes in a few weeks! a few more questions!
Thanks!
Picked up this afternoon, delighted to say the least. Need to work out how everything works now. 7 days from order to delivery, well impressed.
super, thanks KCross.
Just on the type of charger, what is the most popular one, I need a little bit of guidance here otherwise I'm likely to pick on up in Aldi
Looks great and best of luck, enjoy.
And thanks for uploading pic..👍️
There are a few but again all depends on your wants/needs.
Zappi, Ohme, Wallbox, Hypervolt, Tesla wall connector etc
The things you need to answer for yourself first are...
Ultimately they will all charge your car. Its down to cost, features, looks etc.
There's lots of specialist companies that install car chargers, Google is your friend here.
Apply for the grant approval first, that lasts for 6 months.
The €600 grant is paid back to you after the paperwork for the installation goes in.
2. Maybe see if you can switch to a good night rate with your electricity supplier.
3. You can survive with the granny cable, but it's very slow.
4. For public chargers you will probably need an Esb, easy-go and maybe plug-surfing accounts.
5. If you order through a referral link, then both you and the referrer get credits that can be used for rewards in the Tesla store, including supercharging.
thanks for all your help folks. Somebody in work said Pulsar wallbox, any thoughts on these, I'm not looking for anything fancy ???
If you have, or intend to get Solar panels, then get one that is compatible. Zappi and Wall-box are, there's a few others aswell. If not then a basic one will do you. You can buy it yourself separately and then get an electrician to install and sign off on the forms and possibly even get it done for nett zero or close to it.
My son had a Wall-box installed recently and it was €1300. The €600 grant then comes back from the SEAI, in a couple of weeks.
I have one since start February. It was €699 after the grant (including ct clamp).
The app is good and the unit itself is nice and compact. It will also support solar integration if required in future.
If you have an electric shower, it also supports load balancing (reduces current to car while shower is in use to ensure no overload / tripping).
I really like it overall however there are some software issues that have been reported related to wifi disconnects that were also happening to me but have since been fixed (for me at least).
The zappi is also a popular charger and would have the same features as the wallbox pulsar plus.
Ultimately you will probably be fine with either though.
I'd suggest getting a couple of quotes and taking it from there.
What kind of consumption do people get on on short local trips? After the 10km school run round trip this morning, nothing over 60km/h, the trip computer showed 85 Wh/km. Was the trip too short to be accurately measured?
What is the capacity of the MYLR battery? Reading that it’s 78.1 with a usable capacity of 75? Would that be correct
I thought the charge point grant had been changed in that the grant is only available now for smart charge points that can use excess solar, I don’t see that mentioned after a quick look at the seai site though.
anybody know if that’s the case?
if it is only for smart charge points then the charge point is expensive but you will get €600 back.
if it has not been changed from its original form then a dumb untethered point can be around €200 inc vat to buy and you might be lucky to get it bought and installed for less than the grant (you used to get €600 regardless of cost).
You don’t have to go back to the consumer board now and can fit an mcb and feed in the meter box - a lot handier for people in newer houses as the meter box tends to be near the drive.
my electriciation friend bought a dumb charge point a few months back (it’s just a type 2 outside socket) for his phev, wired it in himself and never applied for a grant. He uses the timers in the car to charge at nightrate.
I hope the grant conditions have not been changed as it means those without the budget for a smart charge point (or who cannot get solar pv) don’t get any assistance - a tad unfair for those buying an ev on a tight budget.
Tesla wall connector is included on the list of approved chargers. I think it is the EEE list or something like that
Found it here: https://triplee.seai.ie/AcaProducts/Search.aspx
Quick question for the more experienced Tesla owners.
So we'll say I have autopilot engaged with a max speed set to 100, when the car enters a 60 it just keeps ploughing on at 100 even though the 60 sign has been recognised by the screen. I have picked the setting to obey actual speed limits.
Am I missing something, I would have presumed the car would slow to 60 much like it does if there is a car in front of it driving at that speed.
Thanks
Yea, AP doesn't do it automatically. If you soft hold down the RHS stalk after the speed changes the cruise will set the correct speed. You can begin to hold it down already before the sign, and when passing it, the speed will be updated.
I presume this is probably a feature of EAP or definitely FSD
They’ve all been M3, but any Tesla I’ve rented in the US has had that feature of slowing down with the speed limit on basic autopilot.
My Model 3 does it automatically with basic autopilot. I just have it set in the settings to follow the speed limit with 0% offset. It doesn't do it when I'm just using cruise control though.
Bingo, I found the y’s best angle 👌😂
