    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Why would they do that? What do they do with the inventory then. I mean look at Tesla method of not reassigning customers stuck on GC since October will tell you so. There’s people ordering this month, picking up same time as GC delays.

    Fark. Every once in a while I jumped on here hoping good news for you guys and it’s just constant delays. Feb 24 is too much though, with imminent mini refresh.

    It did come with the foam strip and have sticked on to the covers. Maybe I did it wrong. The foam strip was pretty thin though.

    Hey mate, yes I was the reliable eye witness. I was at Fisherman Island when GC first arrived in October. My Y was on the boat so I went and had a look. Can confirmed there was Teslas and non-Teslas (I saw Isuzu Utes or at least some kinda of utes). Others that were there saw Hyundais but I may...

    Anyone bought hub caps to replace the 19" gemini from Aliexpress experienced crackling sound when travelling at low speed? I have removed and swap around (Front to Rear) but still have the sound. Any ideas how to fix this? Issue should be with the aliexpress hubcaps as I don't think I heard...

    There should be a meme for "I survived Glovis Stinkbugs" as well at the end of this. What a mess.

    Didn't know about the holes. I will have to see if I can find a frame for it then.

    QLD Slimline Plates

    Hi all, I have tried to search but cannot find anything on this. Keen to get a personalised plate (QLD) due to the 15% discount today. If I get a Flexi Slimline 3 - 4 characters, will that fit on a Model Y with existing mounting or will I need to get any additional accessories? The other...

    Haven't really been catching up on this thread. What's the latest EDD now for people on GC?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    It really depends on what you want. EV cars are all the same, but there are minor features unique to each brand. For me, I have collected my Tesla and have driven around 500KM since last Friday. Cost - Y is definitely not the cheapest (BYD) but also not the most expensive (Merc, Audi, BMW)...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    More or less spot on with the timeline. Mine was super lucky to be on the first batch of unloading and I picked up my car on the 9th. I believe there are other ships that sail on the western side of Australia for Perth & SA. I believe down the Eastern Coast will be Brisbane to Port Kembla and...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    One thing I noticed and I am sure alot have. These consultants are Tesla Sales Advisors. They are not "Sales". They do not get commission whether you buy or cancel therefore, they have no need to take any bullshit when it comes to customer service. Obviously part of their job is to ensure...

    Mine was fine. Spotless really. I think Tesla do prepare the car prior to delivery (ie wipe down, etc). One thing I noticed is the carpet mat is so easily dirtied. I need to get mats.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    About 3 weeks! But mine was on Glovis Caravel which was having a lot of issues at the moment. I was incredibly lucky that mine was unloaded around mid Oct. I think a lot of buyers have theirs stuck on there now waiting for it to be unloaded.

    If you haven't received a delivery SMS to schedule an appointment by now, yours would be still on the ship.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just picked up mine today at 4pm - Mt Gravatt. There was at least 4 other Ys getting picked up as well when I was there. Didn't manage to talk to either of them but spoke to the SA and apparently all was from Glovis first batch. Spent about an hour in it before I drove off. HW3, none of the...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yeah apparently there is a new vessel Don Juan leaving Shanghai soon. Hopefully the rest of Glovis can unload before that arrives. Ultimate disappointment if not. Count myself absolute lucky that my car was unloaded from Glovis in the first round before all this debacle happens. Picking up my...

    My VIN is now on RAV. Bring on Saturday!
  19. C

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yeah same here when I gave them a call. Basically tell me to continue with payment if I do not want any delays and I will pick up my car on Saturday. Still cannot find VIN on RAV.
  20. C

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yeah from my understanding they cannot sell a car if its not approved. No leeway in this. Called Tesla today and they are still adamant that everything is in order, compliance will come in this week and I will collect my car on Saturday. I made a test deposit of $100 to confirm the funds will...

    Have you made payment or planning to? I’m not sure if if I should make payment without the vehicle being approved yet.

    Yeah AU HW3 still getting USS. Although I heard Highland does not have USS so high chance Y refresh next year will be the same.

    Thanks mate. Only thing I can’t find model Y spoiler. I’ll keep searching or maybe just grab one from Marketplace. Doing ceramic coating next weekend and the detailer is happy to install the spoiler for me hence the urgency. All good.

    as long as we get USS, I’m not particularly fussed over HW3 or 4. Tesla vision is a scam lol

    Does anyone know of an accessories store in Brisbane that allows local pickup? Keen to get a matte black spoiler within the next week.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Quick question. I was meant to trade in my car but just managed to sell privately today. (Listed for 8 weeks, but the moment I’m getting the Tesla, I sold it) Do I just call Tesla to revise the invoice? Will this impact delivery date?

    I’m in Brisbane though. So first stop I guess :( now I find it strange with the bio email they sent out mid week.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    If its on the Morning Cello, you would have hit the jackpot. But since its on the Glovis, hard to determine now whether that's a good thing haha. You'll be spewing mad if the delay is going to push through to Q1 2024 to clean every car off the lot and every other shipment (ie Morning Cello)...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yup, same here. Just waiting to see how long this delay will take. If it pushes out to 2024, I will cancel and wait for the refresh. Depending on the delay, I might even push Tesla to change my order without the cancel fee, but holding my breath on that.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    100%. This is definitely on the shipping company or whoever is doing the fumigation. I hope Tesla or other companies with goods on this ship can claim cost on this. They should know about the tight Australian biomeasures by now. I placed my order on the 12th August with the same EDD. My issue...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Might get some bad rep but still feel Tesla should have assigned VIN when it arrives on shore instead of on the way. Situation like this, they should be re-assigning orders to those that order earlier in the queue. Now you are going to end up with people ordering in August/September getting...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    They did sent out an email explaining what happened and its due to Biosecurity. So most likely stink bugs were found even after the 1st round of fumigation and had to do it all over again. With the queue and backlog, it just compounded.

    I am Brisbane based but not getting anything on RAV. Not sure if that means anything but looking at way things are, I won't be surprised if my car is missing.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Thanks both @Davo Y and @ashou23 I only have the email regarding final invoice. Have not received any email for just the registration … I will wait for tomorrow and if not I’ll scan and send it to that email you provided.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    No, my VIN is not on there. How about you? My app remains TBD however I did receive my final invoice today which is a welcoming sight. Seeing that everyone else got theirs like 2 weeks ago. Apparently there was an issue generating mine. For those that have received the application for...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Glovis definitely did unload at Brisbane last Friday. I was at Fisherman's Island and saw Hyundais/Mazdas and Teslas as well. That was around 6pm. Next day, found out that it is being moved to Bulk Terminal so I have suspicion is stink bugs found, re-inspection required. It is planned to move...

    Not sure why mine is TBD now. Probably give Tesla a call tomorrow.

    Has anyone had their app updated yesterday? My EDD has disappeared :(

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Seems like it is going back to the bulk terminal? Another inspection? Is that normal?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Brisbane and GC should be the same under QLD. Most likely the inventory stock has been snatched up. They moved quick, like quick quick if it’s a demanded spec. There is 1 more ship coming in Morning Cello this month. If you don’t get assign VIN by then, it’ll probably be in the next production

    So who owns Morning Cello and Glovis haha

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I'm curious on how you search up your VIN and find it on the Swift Ace?
  46. C

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Probably not. Just that it has arrived. Ship is still at the same place as yesterday haha.

    I still have not received my final invoice and rego. Not sure what the hold up is?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Hopefully. Getting info that it might be going through fumigation. If that’s true then it’s going to throw everything back by another few more days.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I don't think Glovis has unloaded yet. Still at the same location since yesterday I believe for AQIS inspection.
