Hey all, Had a rock fly at my windshield when driving behind a truck. -clunk- Scuffed the windshield slap bang in the center. The glass didn’t crack. It’s a very surface scuff and I can barely feel it when I run my fingers over it. But I can see it from the inside. I was wondering if...

Does anyone have a good colour match for the induction wheels? Finally curbed my inductions and looking to sand it down and touch up the paint Thanks!

What, you haven't heard of the Model T? Just kidding, thanks for pointing that out. I'll probably repost the question.

I’m looking to get my new MY ceramic tinted. I was wondering what level of tint factory MYs in Australia came with for each window?

What type of coverage do you have and with who? How much do you pay for annum? Tossing up between comprehensive vs third party fire and theft with the latter being cheaper. I've heard that parts and repairs for Teslas often cost a pretty penny. Would a third party fire and theft be enough? Or...

Hi All, I’ve got a MY RWD coming this year. No VIN yet. I’ve gotten quotes from AAMI, GIO, Rollin’, NRMA. All of them are 2.4K+ per year. I’ve heard that people have been getting there’s for sub 2k/year. Are MY insurances all that expensive? How much do you pay for yours? Do you have any...

How long did it take for M3LR orders to open after the source code was inputted here in Aus?

I’m shopping for black wheel cover for my 19 inch geminis when I take delivery and I’m tossing between a few options. I love the look of the induction wheels but I want the range and ride quality of the geminis. I’d be interested to know if any of you bought wheel covers and how you think they...

I'm looking to get the 7.5m type 2 cable that Tesla stocks, it's rated for 16.5kw. Do you reckon I'll get somewhere between 3.6kw and 7kw on a single phase? and do you see single phase type 2 chargers often?

Does anyone have any clue/guesses as to when the MY-LR might come to Australia? I ordered a MY-SR but man, I'm worried about the 450km WLTP. Also, how do all of your MY-SR owners feel about the current range?

I'm looking to by a type 2 to type 2 cable. The ones I'm looking at come in lengths of 5-10m. What is your experience with your length of cable? What length would you recommend? Any benefits to getting a longer one? Thanks!

I've got an MY RWD coming this year. I'm confused as to what sort of charging socket it has and what adaptors/cables I will need. I thinking of getting a UMC charger for starters. If I want to charge at say non-Tesla DC fast chargers with CCS/SAE adaptors and regular Chargefox AC chargers...

For a 2022-2023 MY. If I were to charge at say an Ampol DC fast charger with a CCS/SAE head. Do I need an adaptor that converts the CCS/SAE head? Also, what type of socket does a 2022-2023 MY have anyways? Thanks!

That does clear things up for me pretty well. Thanks for the reply mate. Do you know if regional areas have more 3 prong or 5 prong wall sockets for 20/30A tails? Or am I asking the wrong question?

Hi All, I'm expecting a Model Y later this year and I've been tossing up over which charging equipment for portable charging I really need. As a newbie, my understanding is that 1) a type 2 to type 2 cable is definitely needed for public charging. 2) a type 2 to type 1 adaptor would be helpful...
