It's A(door)able 3 years ago

On the middle one they only check if you go backwards from the position of the key (I got it to work clockwise). If you continue on the intended path and then go back the clock won't go faster. You have to be fast though.

It’s non-transferable in the sense that it stays with the car, not the owner. If the owner buys a new car they have to buy the FSD package again. But the car they sell on the second hand market will keep the FSD package, unless they sell it back to Tesla. In that case Tesla usually disables it before putting it back on the market.

I work on my cars as a hobby (not a mechanic). All the brakepad sensors I’ve seen were only on one pad (usually the inner one, as that wears off first). As for your 2 and 3, there is simply not a chance that a bump will make a pad fall off, unless the whole brake system has major damage.

The explanation is usually the simplest, they forgot to install it.

when you trade in an old car.

nitpick. there are two programs. "rabla plus", the 9300 euro one, applies regardless. you can receive an additional 1300 euros through the "rabla" program if you trade in a car (which will be discarded to the junk yard). this second subsidy applies to any new car purchase.

The EU actually has such a "conformity" law for goods[0], however I don't see how it would apply in this case. It also takes into account the point raised by the other commenters: "the seller can only refuse if this causes disproportionate costs on him in comparison with the alternative remedy, taking into account the value of the goods or the significance of the lack of conformity"

In EU we have a conformity warranty which basically gives you the right to return the product (or demand a partial refund) if it does not meet the advertised specs. [1]

Does it apply in this case? IANAL but my guess is that it should apply, as it meets two of the prerequisites:

- are not fit for the specific purpose required by the consumer, of which he/she informed the seller at the moment of conclusion of the contract, and which the seller accepted;

- are not fit for the usual purpose of goods of the same type;

The HTTP/1.1 RFC[0] specifies that the host header MUST be included in each request.

   >A client MUST include a Host header field in all HTTP/1.1 request
   >messages . If the requested URI does not include an Internet host
   >name for the service being requested, then the Host header field MUST
   >be given with an empty value. An HTTP/1.1 proxy MUST ensure that any
   >request message it forwards does contain an appropriate Host header
   >field that identifies the service being requested by the proxy. All
   >Internet-based HTTP/1.1 servers MUST respond with a 400 (Bad Request)
   >status code to any HTTP/1.1 request message which lacks a Host header
   >field.
