Hi again, Firstly, I was wondering is new 3's and Y's delivered to Australia have the new HW4? And if they do, is there a marked improvement in the vehicles? Secondly, we live on a gated estate on a golf course in Noosa Heads. I'm trying to set 'Home' as my address but it defaults to an address...

Morning all, We're going on holidays for a month in February and I was considering setting charge limit (MYLR with LNMC battery (I think)) to 50-60% and leaving it plugged in to our Tesla wall charger for the duration. Firstly, is that the best option? Secondly, our garage faces west and...

Hi again, I noticed our black 'vegan leather' (Ha!) seats are becoming marked (whitish marks) after 4 months and washing them with a chamois and water does nothing. What is a suitable seat cleaner? I avoided white seats when ordering because of the concern about marking but it seems that might...

Hi all, Our problem is that the MY will connect when calling (iPhone) out to a number but when we receive calls we get a green phone symbol appear on both the top and bottom of the screen but when I press on them to connect it doesn't. We have to answer on the iPhone and then try and manually...

Hi, just wondering if there's a way to increase the distance between our Tesla Y and the car in front when using Autopilot? I find it disconcerting that at 110km/h we seem to be following too closely. On our 2017 E Class Benz it was adjustable but I can't find a setting in our Model Y.

Hi all, our MYLR is 6 weeks old now and I'm loving it. However my wife keeps complaining about the smell of wet socks in the cabin. I can't really smell it but she says it's awful. Anyone else experienced this?

Hi, now I'm 77 years old and usually change cars every 4-5 years. I've owned cars since I was 17 years old so that makes, by my calculation, 12 -14 vehicles. I mention this not to brag but to seek your advice. Cleaning windscreens is, and always has been, a thankless task. I mean immediately...

Hi, perhaps I'm asking too much of the software but what does the 'Easy Entry' do? I have it turned on for my profile with the seat rolled back and lower for easy entry. But, when I stop and open the door nothing happens unless I touch the Easy Entry tab. Also, I have a blue dot under the...

Hi guys, I've had this a few times now and whilst it doesn't faze me it might when my wife is driving alone. A number of times (maybe 5-6) when I open the MYLR with my iPhone the screen remains black and nothing wakes it up. I then do a reset and it comes back to life but my question is, is...

Our new (28th June 2023) Model YLR) doesn't save the position for the auto-tilt on reverse. And, it seems it has only just started doing this because I'm sure the left mirror used to drop all the way a few weeks ago. No matter how many times I put the car in reverse, with Auto-tilt ON, and then...

Here's another question for some of you experienced Tesla'ites. My wife and I have iPhones and mine works fine and connects and unlocks/locks the MY etc. My wife's iPhone is also linked as a key but doesn't connect which is a worry because she's not patient with technology. Mine is set as...

Hi, we've had our MYLR for 4 weeks and I want to subscribe to Premium Connectivity. I understood you could buy 1 year subscription for $100 (approx) but I can only find monthly sub. at $10 per month. I'd like to save the $20.

Can someone with experience with this issue help please. Our new MYLR has started dropping fluid from somewhere between the front wheels. I noticed it yesterday and it wasn't too bad but this morning there was a pool about 800mm wide on the garage floor. I was obviously concerned so I dipped my...

SORRY, PLEASE IGNORE THIS POST I WAS TOO HASTY AND FOUND THE RATTLE TO BE THE REAR SEATBELT ON THE PLASTIC TRIM. NOW FIXED! Hi again. This is something that is driving me crazy. The front seat seatbelt adjustments on our new MY were too high and cutting into our necks. I slid them down to make...

Here I go again. I watched a video about how to use and set-up 'Watch app for Tesla' app as a key on Tesla Y. I spent the $29.95 from Apple App store and followed the instructions. Doesn't work for me. All the controls work manually via my Apple Watch but it doesn't work as a key (like the...

I'm prepared to end up with egg on my face over this but both my friend's and our MY's (climate?) fan seems to remain on even after the car is locked. I might be nearby and I can hear it humming away merrily but often when I look at the app, it says nothing is happening. Our is a LR and hers is...

Hi all, I asked this question in the 'Charging' thread but no-one answered. I have the Gen 3 Wall charger at home and was wondering if I really need this Mobile Connector at $550. I'm struggling to think of a scenario where it might be helpful. I understand that if you're in a region where...

Wondering if some of you knowledgeable folk can straighten me out. I'm paying a relatively small amount of LCT and with the increased threshold 1st July when does the LCT apply? 1) Time of registration 2) Delivery date or 3) Time of final invoice. Just wondering?

Hi to anyone that has picked up their Tesla in Brisbane. I just had a change of pickup destinations from Fortitude Valley to Holt St, Pinkenba, QLD 4008. Can anyone give me a heads up on what the Pinkenba experience is like?

Hi guys, still don't have our vehicle yet so can't experiment. I've searched everywhere for this and can't find a definitive answer. On our current vehicle, I can set the map display to a (fake) 3D mode. It's not actual 3D but it gives that impression. (see attached image below) Every image I...

Hi guys, we did a road trip from Noosa to Newcastle last week in our E Class Benz and used Waze the whole way. It was terrific for navigation and reminding us of both permanent and mobile speed cameras. I don't think Tesla supports Waze but I could be wrong, does anyone know the best way of...

Hi again, Getting excited about our MYLR delivery soon so doing some prep. I called my local window tint mob today and asked about PPF. They do apply film but the guy told me that the effective life of a PPF installation is only 3-4 years before it becomes brittle and starts to break down. He...

Hi all, I was with a couple of friends last night and mentioned we'd ordered a tesla. Big mistake, because they put s**t on me all night (in a light hearted way) but unfortunately my wife googled it today and now she's paranoid. What is the current (pardon the pun) view on this? Thanks.

Just wondering, having read posts of guys leaving their Tesla's for lengthy periods and returning to flat batteries, whether I will be able to leave it on our wall charger for 3-6 weeks if we're away on holidays?

Did anyone see the review of the Tesla Y Performance in last Saturday's (8/4) Weekend Australian by Stephen Corby? WOW! Talk about a critical review. I include an attached file with the full review but to cut to the chase, it is scathing on the Tesla MP. I'll reproduce it here in full if you're...

I received this this morning but I can't see changes reflected anywhere?

I've ordered our MYRWD with standard GPS stuff. I've been watching Youtube videos of FSD beta 11.2.3 (or something) but I understand it's not available in Aus. So, for the $10,000 Elon is asking for FSD in Aus, what do we get for our money? I don't want to put my 'hard earned' down and find it's...

Hi all, ordered MYRWD in Brisbane on Friday and spent the night at Marriott hotel. I asked concierge if the had charging infrastructure and was tol I need to bring my one 240v lead. i checked and overnight on that type of charger will only put about 30% in. So I tried searching for hotels with...

Hi again and sorry to mess up your forum with (probably) dumb questions. I'm very close to pulling the trigger on MYRWD. I'd love the P but I'm pushing 78 and not really a rev-head any more LOL. I currently drive a 2017 Benz E Class and it has many of the driving features of the Tesla's (semi...

Hi all, we're just about to pull the trigger on an MY with 20" Induction wheels. Does anyone know whether the Induction rims will support run-flats? Also, with the 2023 MY, has the lack of USS been solved with the cameras? Will they warn the driver if you're about to hit a hidden object? Cheers PH

Okay, here I go again. I'm a newbie and I haven't seen this asked so forgive me if it has. In order, my motivation for wanting to buy a MY is... Technology - the fact that Tesla seem to be streets ahead in this area. Emissions - just doing our little bit. Ingress & Egress - better seat height...

Hi guys, another couple of questions from a (potential) new MYP owner. I recently asked about 'run-flat' tyres and received good advice so here's another couple of things that are of potential concern. Now, we are a one car, one motor bike, one motor scooter and one golf buggy couple and due to...

Hi guys, I've been lurking here a bit. My wife and I are ready to pull the trigger on an MY P (would like LR but who knows when?). We currently drive a Benz E class sedan with run-flats and believe me we've needed them on at least 4 or 5 occasions over the past 5 years. (Tradies dropping nails...

Just a quick question from a newbie. Is there such a thing as MY long range in right hand drive anywhere in the world?

Just wondering if the MY Performance from Shanghai still has the super harsh ride or or it's been modified in recent builds?
