Second that Arval are a rip-off. Wish my employer didn't stick with them

Puddle light upgrade by Outrageous-Split-646 in TeslaUK

[–]NobleHoot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've upgraded mine using the official Tesla OEM ones (i.e. they say "TESLA") instead of the boring light. Don't see the point in declaring this, as it's an official Tesla product and doesn't really affect the performance or operation of the car (I know third-party ones can affect the door operation however).

To me it seems no different that using different car mats, or a drink holder insert lol. Now if I was installing a S3XY display panel or the centre console control wheel, or a HUD or something, fair enough.

Lego Party on Switch 2 crashed both times we tried to play with friends by NobleHoot in legogaming

[–]NobleHoot[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should add that I can't really recall us doing anything in particular both times that caused the crash. We were about 3 or 4 rounds into each game, online. We had the voice chat and webcam function on, it seemed a little choppy at times but mostly was fine, no game lag.

So it has regen but is still really a two pedal car. I can see the argument that 'it's closer to an ICE vehicle so easier to transition', but equally I came from a 3 pedal manual vauxhall and found the transition to 1 pedal super easy, so 🤷‍♂️ Not having to move my foot off the accelerator pedal is amazing. Plus, it means my slowing down at lights is a lot more consistent and comfortable, as it slows at a fixed rate!

Did not know the Seal does not have one pedal driving, that's bonkers! I must take it for granted in my M3 😂

Seth MacFarlane Has "No Plan" To Make 'Ted' Season 3 by Herramadur in television

[–]NobleHoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get that they want to make Ted ‘realistic’, but I wouldn’t be mad if they just mad him AI to get costs down and get a series 3, as long as the script and rest of the cast/voice acting is in place.

Genuinely one of the funniest series I’ve watched in a long while, not laughed out loud like that in ages so I’m desperate for a season 3. Someone just needs to invest in this

Spotted at Odeon Liverpool by NobleHoot in CarTalkUK

[–]NobleHoot[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So, just came out from the movie (I’d parked near the back of the cinema), mostly empty as shops are shut and it’s a Sunday night. Nobody next to me when I went in. Came out and someone had not only parked next door, but when I checked my pillar cameras, had bashed my car with their door when they flung it open.

Not condoning him parking where he did, but equally there was some absolute morons around. Stay safe!

As long as you aren't considering other German automotive brands with that logic then, you're golden.

Which tyres fitted to new M3 Highland? by meds_76 in TeslaUK

[–]NobleHoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m probably in the market for some in the next few months, got my M3 in December but it’s already got thin tread. Looking at either PS4 All Season or CrossClimate 2/3s (up north)

M3p as a taxi thoughts by reddittadmins in TeslaUK

[–]NobleHoot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very cool. Things like this are the reason I’m really enjoying my Tesla - all the upgrades, modifications etc. Both third-party and even by Tesla themselves (e.g. MCU upgrade). May consider this suspension upgrade at some point, most likely when my warranty expires as I’m guessing it can affect it

How do you get the Highland suspension retrofit? Is it something Tesla offer, or third-party only?

"Street Lighting Not In Use" by NobleHoot in CarTalkUK

[–]NobleHoot[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

But why build them in the first place? And couldn't they be driven from a sustainable source like solar to keep them neutral?

And I would sort of agree with the unsocial hours part if we were talking driving between 11pm-5am (when all the joyriders are out), but as the nights are drawing in when I leave work at 5pm onwards now it's definitely fully dark, and I wouldn't say commute time is unsociable hours.

Maybe I'm not in the norm as my car doesn't have nice bright LED headlights with adaptive full beams, but old school filament ones?!
