    Second failed WOF in 2 years (2019 Tesla Model 3)

    Ask Tesla what the warranty is on replacement parts and labour as Tesla will have warranty cover.

    Replacement Tires for 19" wheels

    My 2019 3 standard range original tires have 45k and maybe toast at 50k. I do keep the tyre pressure at 44 and check every week - fortnightly. I don't exhilarate slowly nor does my wife and who would with a 2019? I will only allow Tesla to work on my car including tires and WOF.

    Tesla AMD RYZEN FSD Jailbreak

    Nothing about the monthly subscription premium connectivity, which my Tesla gets free for the life of my Tesla.

    California July

    I'm driving a Mazda CX5 Ice, which allows our two e-bikes in the back. No one goes at the speed limit unless you drive in the lane with trucks. I drive in the middle of a group of vehicles travelling between 80-100, and usually, the speed is 85. The Mazda CX5 has radar distance cruise control.

    Tesla Software Updates for Model 3 New Zealand

    We seem to not get most of what is promised in the last 6 months of updates just mirror fixs.

    California July

    Thank you I got sick of the Tesla non-believers so moved on. Now they have all been proved wrong I thought I would give it another go here.

    California July

    I've noticed after many freeway miles, there are no Tesla charging stations anywhere that can be seen in off-ramp areas where there are food outlets. I'm driving around California all of July, and we must be the only vehicle with its windows down, and the best thing is the 80-100 mph speed...

    Auckland service centers

    $2700 AA price was in 2020 A small price to lay a towel on the garage floor for the comfort levels we get. You could have an oil tray🤣and it's now a water catcher tray and paint it blue😏

    Auckland service centers

    It's so cheap to run a Tesla, and the tire wear is low, I keep tires at 44psi. I haven't changed the air filter yet as I hardly use air-conditioning. The auto-heated seats are always set to on.

    Will my Cybertruck arrive?

    Servicing is not required, but Tesla's recommendation is 15k, up to you, but for $34 it's well worth it. My BMW just had a 7-year service for $1800.🧐

    Auckland service centers

    $34 for 15,000 service & tire rotation and $73.91 for WOF. You must have got free data for life as my Tesla did.

    Will my Cybertruck arrive?

    I agree, and I've never had any correspondence with Tesla NZ other the Tesla's NZ acceptance of my deposit and order for the cybertruck as attached

    Tesla Insurance

    I have just renewed my AA policy and AA on a 4-year-old Tesla will not insure above market value. I tried to insure for the price of a new Tesla but no go with AA. I don't pay the extra for a loan car.

    Tesla Insurance

    My deductible is $400 and replacing a glass roof wouldn't be very often, if at all. I've had many missiles hit the front windscreen and it's never cracked in 4 years. My only claim has been paint damage from missiles. Insurance I will pay for the best. If you have FSD make sure and insure at...

    Tesla is advertising for FSD testers in New Zealand!

    My Tesla has FSD from 2019 and it's been fun seeing advanced autopilot improvements, I use it everywhere even on roundabouts. On motorways, it can drive by itself from the on-ramp to the off-ramp but it's frustrating at changing lanes so do this myself. On one on-ramp it will change its speed...

    You have to explain what you have insured your Tesla for and the detectable as well as whether Tower provide you with a car. We need an ongoing reply on insurance.

    Tesla Insurance

    I didn't know Tesls Insurance was available in NZ. I'm with AA and it cost $250 extra to insure the cost of FSD after a debate with them as they were not going to cover it. The big question with Tesla insurance is how fast a claim is settled and does the cost include a free car.

    Cybertruck testing near Wanaka - light at end of tunnel (CT waiting list)

    Tesla has a 4-year waiting list for the Cybertruck at this stage and will grow. Tesla can only build so many factories at a time. Tesla has 3 more new vehicle announcements in March. The car manufacturing industry has been shaken, and now this industry will change and adopt Tesla's way or say...

    Tesla Model 3 in New Zealand

    I have emails from Tesla NZ saying Tesla will be installing Model 3 tow bars once they arrive at Tesla Service before I confirmed purchase, Australia & NZ were going to be the only countries for retro fitting tow bars.

    Things to consider with a wrapped car

    Agree. The way drivers damaged my previous vehicle panels will slowly to replaced and I'm not that worried. I spend more time looking after my home like washing the exterior. I haven't washed my M3 for a month.

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Why did you purchase a Tesla when you think Tesla's FSD is poorly designed. Tesla is the only manufacture allowed to use FSD beta and it's been approved by local government transport authorities.

    Suspension Failure

    You can prove that you never drove over sharp pot holes or steel man holes with badly fitting covers. If you threaten someone you'll never receive good service and it can be fun for some staff to see you return.

    Elon: "Feature complete for full self driving this year"

    It's going to be years before level 5 if ever. My M3 has FSD but hardly nothing changes and still the same phantom braking in the same places as 4 months ago.

    Totally different car as M3 is a sports car and sports cars have more noise going on.

    Given lackluster service would you still buy a Tesla?

    For every 1 Tesla horror story their's many thousands of Tesla's that have had no problems. These types of forums you only hear from the people who cry loudest about the smallest of problems.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Model 3 doesn't have high tyre noise and defiantly no more that my previous 6 new BMW's I've owned. Every car I have driven on the Gold Coast highway has extremely high tyre noise due to the concrete surface of the highway. It is getting better due to concrete is being replaced slowly.

    Suspension Failure

    Best thing to do is sell your Tesla's as some of you don't trust Tesla now. How about VW as they are really trust worthy and they have their ID 3 (yes another 3) coming someday but they have too fix all their ID computers individually first which is going to take many months as they have 25,000...

    Tesla needs some New Zealand service expansion

    Talk about ludicrous mode this is ludicrous mode over servicing. I mean 8 weeks to be able to fix your issue. Is Tesla Auckland saying they have major issues with their vehicles and cannot look after clients with minor issues better. How come LTE is only a minor issue.
