Hubby (Model Y) left to go to Coffs Harbour at 3.30am this morning thinking he would beat the queues. Got to Port Macquarie and rang to say there were 8 in the queue waiting and more still pulling up. The ChargeFox close by has been out of service for months. Seems we still have an issue with...

A lovely positive experience of autopilot: OH took the MY from Canberra to Coffs Harbour (a regular trip), while at Taree charging, slipped on the grass behind the chargers and broke his arm :(- but didn't tell me. Instead, he put on autopilot and returned back to Canberra - able to do so as...

Can you give a link for this bed as OH camps in the MY frequently and getting a proper fitting bed as opposed to foam would be good for him.

I rang them today and they said that they are staging the distribution against the orders. They told me I would get an email soon to book in a time for installation (and to be patient!).

I asked to be emailed last year when we purchased the Model Y, and the Australia Tesla shop is still saying, email me! I've been waiting for this for such a long time!:mad:

Reasons for having TWO Tesla's Model Y and Model 3. The Model Y is "his" 1. I think it looks stunning from the front, sucks side on 2. Convenience of not having to go to a Servo (and savings) 3. Love the tech - hated other cars with so many buttons that I never did figure out what they did...

Punchbuggy... I think we live very close to you (and those speed bumps!). I seemed to have lost my regen for months on the M3SR+ but got it back with the new update and loving it once again. I also had a new tyre put on, but now charge to 100% and still get the regen.

I also had this, Model 3 2021. I thought I was going crazy as our Model Y was normal. But lo and behold, with the new update, I got my regen back! Woohoo!

Driving up the East Coast we noticed that the MY did a lot of false braking (and scared the living 💩 out of me!) I don't notice it in my M3 but then I don't use TACC much around town. I've done all the updates in the M3, does that mean that radar has been disabled?

We are finding the Model Y pretty good, it's not as snappy as my Model 3, but has proven to really good for us and it is our main road trip vehicle now. Some minor panel alignment issues when taking delivery were quickly fixed (took 15 minutes) by the service Gods (the Canberra service center...

I've attended the service center once with the Model 3 (not in Sydney though) and once with the Model Y and my experience both times has really good. As a female, it has been appreciated as I can't say the same for all those years I suffered at the hands of other service centers!

Wondering if anyone else has had this issue? I've had my Model 3 for a year and a half and always had lane departure avoidance on "assist". Never once have I had any problems with it until the past two weeks. Everytime I've been out in the past two weeks, I've had the lane departure...

Not surprised, I did a feedback to Tesla on the delivery of our Model Y in the carpark which was mostly negative, it was dark, cramped and rushed. To dark to have a good inspection of the car before taking delivery. Delivery of our Model 3 was great as it was during Covid and was delivered to...

Same issue, "Mr" kerbed my Model 3 so badly I had to replace the tyre and now have bad kerb rash... seems he has a problem as he also did it with his new Model Y!! I will use someone to fix it locally.

I eagerly await more superchargers along this route. I have been avoiding driving out to Hay to visit relatives as I am concerned about the reliability of what is out there at present!

I'm a bored boomer 👵 and now own an SR+ (2021) and MY 22. Personally as a boomer, I'm relieved to get into a car without buttons everywhere that I'll never figure out what they do! I see a lot of anti EV information in the media and from friends which I mostly ignore as I'm not in the...

Not waiting anymore! Picked up our Blue/Black MY RWD today. There were about 30 in Canberra ready to be collected! Gotta be honest, I prefer my Model 3 after having driven it, but OH is happy and is taking it to Coffs tomorrow! Now a 2 x Tesla family ;)

Got my SMS last week and booked to collect my blue Y on Friday 9th September - WOOHOO. Not before time as my Model 3 is starting to feel ordinary here in Canberra, I can't go out without seeing at least 6 Model 3's during a 20 minute drive! Gone are the days now when I waved to the 5 other...

Has anyone tried to order the Tow Hitch from the Tesla Shop for the Model Y? I have tried but it comes up that I don't have a suitable vehicle for it, even though I have now paid for it and booked a delivery date. Hoping I can order asap.

Got my VIN this morning!!! Ordered at 1.02pm - EDD now 10 - 20th September. Build Date 08/22

I ordered a Blue RWD at 1.02pm... EDD Aug-Nov 😭

I'm trying the Tesla trade-in process as well after ordering the Model Y... interesting to see what response I get. Hubby wants me to trade in my Model 3... over my dead body, so I'm trading in his diesel SUV! 🤣

I want to put the towbar package onto the Model Y, do I order and pay for one now or wait? Anyone have any ideas?

I did that for about 10 minutes and then hit the "order" button.

Just ordered Blue RWD Model Y today (10/6) 🥳👯‍♀️

Hey Everyone, I did a trip to Sydney last weekend to get used to charging, but now I want to go from Canberra to Hay, NSW. There is a Supercharger at Gundagai and some 22KW ones in Wagga, but then the next is off the main road (detour via Griffith) and then onto Hay... I want to do the trip...

Oh I remember that day when mine rocked up on a transport truck and unloaded in the street. A 10 year old boy walking past with his mother kept saying "look Mum - A TESLA!!" The car sparkled as they rolled it off the truck and I got lots of time to savour the moment. That was 6 months ago and...

An update: I ended up buying a screen swivel from Tech Forum and had it installed by audio installers... it is great! I had a service problem with the screen (the thermostat fan was making a noise) and the Service techo's were great about having the swivel screen in after I explained that I...

Recently I have seen 6 Teslas, Model 3's, Model S and Model X while out on a short drive here in Canberra... there are so many everywhere, or is it that I just notice them now! Literally cannot leave home without seeing a Tesla these days.

I was you a few months ago 🥺... each day seems to drag while you're waiting... hang in there, it will be worth the wait. I watched as many videos as I could while waiting and found that it definitely helped me a lot when the car arrived. When it finally did arrive, we couldn't drive it as...

That was your undoing! Test driving these little beasts is what ropes you in and then it is down the Tesla rabbit hole forever - my sales advisor KNEW I would buy the Tesla after the test drive even though I was adamant I was going to wait for the Ioniq 5 to arrive! ;)

Bit off subject everyone, but any likelihood of getting from Canberra to the Evie at Seven Hills on a full charge from home, we taking the Tesla on its first road trip!!

Nice to see this!

I have seen Matt Kean and was amazed at how much I agreed with him. The Government and business do not really want EV's to take off here as there are too many industries, big and small business' associated with ICE cars that would suffer, guess that is how Blacksmith's felt when cars were...

Do I admit now that I have never had to use a public charger yet :eek: I'm planning on doing a short trip just so I can try it!

I don't understand why this Government is not using cash incentives to encourage more affordable EV purchases, obviously if there was such a "cash" incentive, I would be getting a Model Y to go with my Model 3! 🤣

Cheers for that, that's great, but still nothing to tell me the time!⏱️

I'm new to my Model 3 and have found that I operate most functions using voice command, helps with my limited eyesight to see the screen. Yesterday I tried a voice command that I thought (silly me) would be standard, I asked "what time is it" and tried many alternatives to try and get it to...

I was in a carpark and stopped to check for oncoming cars, accidently hit the right stalk to indicate and went into reverse... whoops! Fortunate there was no car behind me, but made me wary of doing it again

I had mine delivered and there were no issues, once it was delivered, I rang my contact and he talked me through it, but I also had an opportunity to inspect it prior. Was very exciting when the truck pulled up in the street and the driver drove my lovely new Tesla down to my driveway!

I have two other Model 3's in my suburb! One waves, the other chooses to ignore me (repeatedly!) feel like a dork waving to her now!

Appreciate that info guys... so if it says it has CHAdeMO/CCS - does that mean it is okay to use as a CCS2?

I went with the slim (tin) front and back as he said that they had them in stock, WTH... I wasn't going to wait 5 weeks for a slim front and large back!

Still struggling with the terminology... CCS/CHAdeMO/CCS? CCS2? I have a lot to learn about having an EV, not afraid to admit!

I submitted my documentation for registration yesterday and got a phone call today, paid over the phone (for the insurance component) and the plates will be delivered to the house this afternoon, I need to use the registration number as proof of identity. Woohoo💃

We always stop at Marulan going to Sydney from Canberra, I've checked if they have any charging stations but seems they don't. This is strange considering it is a hub to cater for travelers! Am I missing a network? I have signed up for Evie and ChargeFox at this stage.

Did anyone find out if we can register our new today with Access Canberra?

Heya! 👋 Was out yesterday and saw 3 Model 3's! You can spot me as I'm one of the ones driving around with no rego plates!

Surprisingly, I got through really quick and renewed mine. You don't have to print it, initially I just had the email on my phone to show if needed. I parked outside the court for the day and only reaction from all the police who passed it was a court staff member thinking it had just been...

I expected as much, guess I'm going to have to continue to drive around with no plates and the UVP plastered on the front window!
