    How do you listen to music?

    Built in Apple music (and Spotify) sucks. It's truly mind boggling how they put such an amazing stereo into the car (especially LR), and then decided locking the streaming to 64kbps was acceptable. Your phone will stream it at 256kbps, so just connecting that with bluetooth instantly sounds a...

    Charging stopped notification in a series of 3, 90min apart while charging

    What firmware did you update to? I'm having this exact issue (90 minute interruption intervals). My wall charger appears to be on an older firmware version, but when I try to update, it says nothing new is available.

    No. I poked around online and some people think 3rd party apps could be sending a stop charging signal. I've removed Watchla from my 3rd party list and will see how the charging goes tonight.

    Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

    My home gen 3 charger likes to stop every 90 minutes exactly. It resumes instantaneously but I still get the notifications on my phone. The 32A circuit breaker is not tripping. I set the charger itself to 30A. Any explanations? I'm on the latest firmware.

    For anyone embarrassed by seeing "trunk" and "frunk" when parked, you can change the language to British English to change it to "boot" and "bonnet". Much better :)

    Model 3 Audio Review

    Please submit feedback to them. I did. And yes, on wifi too. It's Tesla cheaping out on data usage. The low quality stream is about a quarter the size per song than the normal quality. Despite letting you stream as much Netflix as you want, this is what they choose to restrict.

    Model 3 Audio Review

    I've been really annoyed that Apple Music and Spotify stream at such low bitrate. I don't know why they put in such a great sound system and then expect you to stream at 64kbps HE-AAC. Bluetooth sounds better, but it's nice to be able to browse playlists etc. on the car screen.

    EV Energy plans - NSW

    Not in NSW but there doesn't appear to be an active thread for Qld. My question is simply, for the OVO EV plan, does the 8c/kwh overnight rate apply to all electricity usage, or does it use some kind of smart tech to only apply that rate to EV charging? We run aircon overnight most nights so the...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    2024.2.7. I actually could see the adaptive headlights working last night really distinctively, it was very cool. I just had a look of horror when I was fairly close to other cars and the high beams remained on... I figure it's doing its adaptive thing but wanted to make sure.

    Thanks fellas. The red is really nice. When I picked it up there was a red Model Y parked close to it and the ultra red was definitely nicer. We were parked next to a stealth grey which also looked great. Compared to our other car, I really enjoy that cruise control can automatically default to...

    Ok so today really is the day - was supposed to pick up yesterday but the finance hadn't come through in time. It's all good now. Scheduled for 3pm, but thinking of just rocking up at 2:30 and saying "woops I arrived early..."

    I get an eye twitch every time I see that Dronus' car is called "Highlander". Isn't that some kind of Toyota model? ;)

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    AAMI had by far the best premium, around $1400 for me. Add a woman as one of the drivers if you can. Don't bother getting a quote with Youi, they wouldn't show the quote on their website, instead they tricked me by asking my phone number to send a "confirmation PIN" - actually it was so they...

    Had to push my delivery back a few days because the NL company needs more time to come through. And it was so close!

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I'm with Maxxia. I have delivery date of this Thursday and the funds haven't yet cleared, they are hoping to settle ASAP though. I told Tesla that it might be late and they said it's cool, just to advise them directly once settlement happens, and still aim for Thursday delivery (although noting...

    I hate that. It seems to be an accepted cultural thing over there that you can skip queues if you have enough money. It seems to be a bit more frowned upon here for now.

    Does anyone know if I can just pick up a UMC in person at a delivery centre when picking up my car, or do they have to be ordered online?

    Has anyone managed to get insurance through AAMI? They were the cheapest when I got quotes a couple of months ago, but that was with the MY23.5 Long Range. Mine is a MY24 which doesn't seem to appear in their list (although the MY24 RWD does).

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I ordered white after having sat in both colours. It's ultimately gonna be personal preference but IMO, the white felt great, and gave the illusion of a much more spacious, airy interior. Plus it's hot AF in Brisbane so they're not going to burn you if you come back to the car after having...

    Yeah, definitely personal preference. I wonder what the spread would have looked like if they were the same price.

    I'm surprised not many have opted for the white interior. Felt like a huge upgrade to me when I compared side by side!

    Just got a text saying my red LR (19" wheels + white interior) is on Don Juan which is set to arrive Feb 8th. What's the expected turn around after this? My EDD is Feb 24th-March 31st. Ordered Dec 2nd.
