    Universal Mobile Connector (UMC) in Australia

    I have the mobile charger but it's so slow and never see where it can be used. One of the reasons Tesla stopped issuing this with new cars.

    Tesla app unable to wake car

    Strange how I got a very different response and approach. Don't think it's working for me. The app is currently struggling.

    Tesla app unable to wake car

    As I mentioned, the Tesla technician had a look. He updated a new firmware (I am at work, so not sure about the number), he also resetted the 12v battery and he said there was a notification for the BMS (battery management system). He said this should do. I will charge it overnight and see if...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Saw the video and it is terrible but actually not a deal breaker. Auto beam is great and actually works great in my Kia Sportage but eventually used few days a year. Auto Wipers have always been a hit and miss and it's easier to turn it on and off manually. It is still bizarre that they do not...

    Interesting - Burbridge is a great potential option

    Rent Tesla Y - Photoshoot - Sydney

    I don't think there are any Model Us in Australia yet! The first ones are arriving sometime in August. I could be wrong? Anyone else have any further insight

    I have joined Veda Prime and be has been very helpful. The discord discussions are fun too and informative. $15 a month is worth it.

    I think it was more for Tesla. They are quite erratic like that.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I think it's not over yet considering more production coming. And possibly more ships. You are right about the FBT savings. Whirlpool had some good discussion on it and doing it for myself showed very good savings. On the announcement front, it is more that that. Labor has confirmed it will...

    Just got this SMS today after I found my VIN a few days back. So probably things are moving.

    I am wrong. The subsidy applies as it is within the number and before the stamp duty.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Also the rules are these. Not sure the new price increase qualifies. "A $3,000 subsidy is available for 7,000 new battery electric and hydrogen fuel cell vehicles valued below $68,750 (including GST) registered in South Australia from 28 October 2021."

    My friends who bought a M3 tell me that you apply for the subsidy later and then wait a few months get it.

    You are right. Below is the response from Tesla guy to my lease contact. "But we do anticipate delivery to be in the next Quarter roughly August / September timeframe"

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I am on Novated Lease. Haven't heard from mine. Yours is very transparent. The FBT policy in my opinion will be implemented retrospectively from July 1. May be legislated in Sep/Oct. Irrespective of the interest rate difference, if you go for a short term 1-3 yrs it will be ahead. For longer...

    Ok possible. It will be great to get after all the wait. When did you order

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Did not check yesterday. I am on a Novated Lease. I had a pay update on my account after accepting Tesla Vision change. Contacted my lease guys who checked with Tesla and they said a VIN may have been allocated with Aug/Sep delivery. That was yesterday. Checked today to see and it was there...

    ARENA/NRMA national fast charging network

    Love that. Thinking of major highways is always a good start. It requires effort to maintain, ensure it is working and most importantly need a way to show that they are active or not. Recent articles show the challenge of non-Tesla network and how hard it is to know what is available or not.

    RAA won the contract and I guess it’s their responsibility. Let me check with RAA senior brass and see what is happening.

    A thought on the 'small' tesla?

    Probably but that is not the only reason to have a small EV. I think a lot of Asian countries will get value from a small EV and may not require the long range for mostly city driving. In fact, the start stop traffic is a positive functionality for a city car with re-gen. The "machine that...

    I ordered on Jan 17 and no EDD and nothing on the App. I did hear that it sometimes just comes a few days before delivery too. So hard to know.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Amazing how things change right. I had the same thought but ultimately booked on Jan 17th for a M3RWD and went for a test drive and looking at Q2 for my delivery. The last few weeks have been a crazy learning process for how fast things can change. Hope you get the car you want!

    1 week review (M3LR).

    If you go to fuel economy.gov and have a look it is clear that the economics are on Tesla’s side. I am from Australia and our cost of electricity is higher, especially in our state. More like 20c per kWh in the night and petrol os $8 a gallon. Compared to my Kia I can save about $35k over 10...

    We should discuss, but we are questioning the value of one person’s work for which can increase our convenience and for $15.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I am surprised that we are all paying more than $65k for the car, spend hours on these and other forums and are discussing about a simple service that costs $15 bucks.
