    I don’t. I figure that unless I put my car into carwash mode when it rains, there is something else diverting the water. I think that musty thing was happening in older cars and they have fixed the design now.

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    It just did it. Like, I went to the software page, it checked and said no update. I turned hotspot on my phone, connected to it via the wifi page and bam, it said update availabl

    The pressure washer I have for the foam gun is just one from Aldi. Strange place to buy a pressure washer but it’s been heaps reliable for home use. I’m sure there are better ones. The foam gun itself was from repco I think, occasionally they have “sales” so worth waiting for. Bogboi dryer was...

    Yes, and I’m no expert here, just learning as I go. I use this foam gun with this foam stuff (or the autoglym one) to get rid of the heavy stuff And then give it a warm wash using this goop And then give it a dry with this bad boy

    I hadn’t noticed the green charge progesss indication bar on the right hand side either. Not sure if it was there or how useful that is (in a car which removes non useful things ) :)

    Yeah it’s getting pretty bad. Cars due for a clean also, having a blue heeler doesn’t help :)

    This is the Aliexpress one, fills the gap perfectly and has a hole in it to poke things thru or allow the pubes to fall thru.

    The car graphics look a bit sharper, I’ve been out and about today and maybe it’s just me forgetting stuff but it looks neater. Can anyone whos software is lower than 14.8 confirm whether or not the forwards facing tyre lines are there? It’s doing my head in haha. Also, the nav icon looks...

    This is the non slip mat stuff I put under the dog seat, and in the boot on top of the rubber mats to stop stuff sliding around. When I’m not using it I just fold it up and put it in the Sub-trunk thing.

    Supercharger - Keith SA

    Yeah it was a bit average the last few times I’ve gone thru there. Agreed, the other bakery or coffee place is better, it’s a bit of a hike so last time I dropped a passenger off to order while I went and charged. I usually don’t need much of a top up there so by the time I’m done they are ready...

    I guess me hotspotting to Telstra (after waiting weeks on Optus) and getting the update notification straight away I think 3 times in a row now could be coincidence, but if the telco made any difference starlink would be at the top of the list! Remember when phones would be offered their OTA...

    Not really, keep checking every now and then, have the car connect to your home wifi and most importantly, enjoy driving your brand new Model Y!

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Out of pure interest, is your home internet that the car connects to via wifi with Telstra? If not, do you have a work phone or something you can hot spot to just to test with.

    So I got home, checked for updates via my home wifi (Optus). No update. Connected to my phone hotspot (Telstra), bam, update. Being that I have only had updates now when connected to Telstra I’m seeing a theme here…

    Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

    So I took off at the lights on the way home, it was a bit wet, I had to “manoeuvre” around a slower moving object in the other lane. When I let off the pedal I felt like a little thunk from underneath. I’m not used to driving rear wheel drive cars in the wet, could that have been wheel slip? Or...

    It’s quite a low boot and tailgate yeah! Windscreen wipers were ok on the way home today. I was stuck in traffic and they kept going in auto so I flicked them to off and just pressed the steering wheel button every now and then. Gave me something to do. Such a nice place to be, I’ve found...

    Superchargers in Australia

    Yeah all makes sense but also the tests and trials would have been much earlier than the delivery dates. I guess during the technical design and evaluation *someone* might of asked.. “so where are we going to tell people to charge these, is there a chance any chargers require anything specific...

    You will eventually, maybe not when the car is loaded on the ship at Shanghai, but eventually at some stage everyone that I’ve seen here has received an email saying that their car is on the way and on a certain ship. It’s an automated process. Can’t remember if it’s before/after or the same...

    Does it do it when the car in in Park? I’m guessing the creaking is the ghosts of the stalks haunting us.

    It could be but I’m pretty sure that value on the left started at 0 and climbed to 32 as it sat around 21-22 for a bit then kept going. I’ll try and get back there in the next few days if it’s of interest.

    Do you find that the strap that goes over the headrest finds its way into the gap between the headrest and the seat, and that’s harder to pick out than a gstring after doing burpees?

    It would be awesome to see some chargers at Southgate Plaza and Hallett Cove shops. Then, as we catch up to the eastern states, chargers at the beach car parks at Christie’s, Port Noarlunga and then Council Libraries at Aberfoyle park (The Hub), Woodcroft, Seaford, Aldinga and maybe Willunga...

    Ohh and all chargers use the chargefox rfid card or the app to start/stop. I was able to stop the charge via the Tesla app for the 2 faster chargers, but the BYzo cable type 2 could be started via rfid but needed to stop via the chargefox app. Not sure if that’s normal. I kinda didn’t want to...

    Dropped into colonaids tonight and found all chargers working. Got harassed by a group of teenagers, some impressed, others “wouldn’t spit on a Tesla unless I put a big donk under the bonnet” etc. Also got asked colourful questions like “how does it sound when it revs” and “can I watch Netflix?”...
