Well... I guess if you have a puncture 4mm or less it 'might' work... But you then have a nightmare cleaning up the mess on your rims inside and still no guarantee of a fix... Mine was a gash on the inside wall around 15mm wide... :-(

Having only recently having a puncture and being stranded on a Friday night in the pouring rain on a single track country lane, having this collapsable would have been a life-saver, rather than being put on a flat bed and waiting 5 days for a company to come out and replace the tyre at my house...
If it helps, I get a fault on the car (Red everywhere) and message from the App when I plug the car in and the charger is set for 'scheduled charge', it then might result in 'Vehicle Not Plugged in' message on the app. However, once the charger switches on at the scheduled time, the car bursts...
100% agree! Now I have solar and batteries, it's no longer a concern as the off peak octopus charges my batteries and all the solar gets sold back to the grid. But people without solar/batteries can flex the cheap rate during the day by 'creative' use of plugging the car in and adjusting the...
As per the post above, the fact that you can get up to an additional 6 Hours of 7p per KWh for the WHOLE HOUSE in addition to the 11:30pm to 5:30pm standard off peak by strategically plugging in your car outside of the off peak hours is a massive bonus for me with Octopus... :-)

Hey, get the All Weather Mats...
You won't regret it. I had to wait 7 months for mine when they were ordered with the car as there was a delay, but in that time, the carpet mats just got really dirty despite regular cleaning.
Had them in my original ICE Macan so knew they would be a good idea...
Sorry this took so long to get the photos and post, but here are some photos showing the camera install. Both in position and showing the cable into the OBD port etc. so no need for fuses etc.
Parking mode works fine, uses voltage drop to know when the car is 'driving' and when turned off...
My Dash Cam from NextBase (IQ) plugs directly into the OBD port and works a treat both driving and in parking mode. No noticable battery drain even when car isnt used for multiple weeks and the dash cam is a 'connected' one so is constantly monitoring and sends me alerts if movement detected...
I’m using the Octopus Smart Charging and all my connectivity issues were resolved earlier this week following the App update which brought the Apple control centre control for preconditioning.
might be worth making sure you’re up to date and then redoing your octopus control. Getting those...
Pretty certain a non IQ NextBase will need a fuse connection which is an issue locating unless can tap off pre-wiring.
The IQ is the only one that’s plug and play via the ODB P
I have a NextBase IQ Front and Rear in my one and it was only ÂŁ119 GBP for professional fitting. Plugs straight into the ODB port, all wiring hidden and works like a dream in an EV
.
Highly recommended and so much easier to use for remote video viewing compared with older NextBase cams.
Apparently it's paying homage to the 911 and is deliberately like this... Thats what my deal said when I complained I'm always scared I will damage the bodywork!
Never owned a 911 so can't know for sure.
