Episode 4 follows the Tesla through registration in Plovdiv and the technical work around it: SRS errors left after the crash, LTE connection problems, and the first tests after registration.
SRS, LTE and more work on the car
We visit Yanev, then return for disassembly and work on the SRS sensor. The episode shows some of the errors remaining after the crash, followed by setting up my phone as a key when I collect the car.
The LTE module I ordered turned out to be faulty. We fit a SIM card instead, but that solution brings problems of its own. In the video I explain what is happening with connectivity at this stage.
First DC charge and Autosteer
After registration, I do the first DC charge at Eldrive. Later, we activate Autosteer (Beta) and I test it on the Plovdiv ring road. At 24:06, I highlight a particular situation from that test.
TeslaMate and costs in the diary
I install TeslaMate to track charging, consumption and other vehicle data. I also show the new diary section for charging and cost per 100 km, where some of this information will be added.
At the end of the episode, I go through the costs of the software and technical services completed up to that point. The recorded amounts are in the diary.
