    Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

    The onscreen car rendering is too small. In the early days (2020) the car was nearly twice the size and it was easy to make out brake lights and indicators. They shrank it to fit other info onscreen.

    Does the highland LR have the option of acceleration boost?

    I am looking to trade my MY20 3 AWD LR (AB) for a highland. Like @TomServo I have been rally happy with this config. Frustrating not to be able to get the Acceleration Boost with the MY24. I wont need all the bells, whistles & extra $$ of a M3P and would have to downsize the wheels in any case...

    Credits: Enticing us to get Acceleration Boost?

    I have a MY20 M3 with acceleration boost that is just over 4 years old now. I am about to sell it. I am not expecting acceleration boost will add any value to its resale after 4 years, but it has been worth it to me. Chill & Standard becomes Chill & Sport. Shame they do not arrange it so it...

    Charging Adaptors 101

    Sounds promising. I have three HSWC's so a bit of an investment there, that I would like to retain. The Volvo is envisaged to be a tweener while I await the big Tesla rig for the farm if it ever materialises. Will do an inventory and check the switch settings inside my Gen 2 wall connectors. Thnx.

    Charging Adaptors 101

    Hopefully not too OT. I have several gen 2 Wall Chargers. Has anyone had success using them to charge non Tesla EVs? Looking to get a cough cough don't laugh (Swedish car) o_O later in the year. I am aware of the dip switches in the v2 HSWC. Also that in the early revs 00, 01 & 03 the...

    Practical kilometres in a M3 long range

    @RichardV Cheers thanks for that. Exactly what I was after :)

    Practical kilometres in a M3 long range

    Good suggestion. Nah cant see anything like that on my Teslafi account unfortunately. It only compares my to others of similar config. My friend lives 180km from Melb and wants to be able to do return trips to town with a bit of driving around in town while he is there. All without charging...

    Practical kilometres in a M3 long range

    Yeah I know all that. 60k btw. That is why I am asking, what the guessometer shows on a new single motor Model 3. So I can tell my mate what to expect in real life should he buy one.. My neighbour has a 2020 SR and she says it only display 320km. But newer single motors have a much...

    Practical kilometres in a M3 long range

    Can anyone tell me what the guessometer says on a current model 3 single motor. Friend is looking to buy a 3 single motor and I think he might have quoted a range of 460 by Tesla. Does this mean the guessometer will show something around 400 when new and fully charged? My 2020 dual motor...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    .. and Drive Electric watch app was saying same too. Got in touch with Tesla service. They pushed the same 2022.44.30 update to my car again (that was already installed) and the Software update message has cleared. All good now. As an aside they initially said to reinstall the phone app, but I...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Good idea. Tried that now. No change. Wife's iPhone has same message as my android so presumably it is being generated by the server and not the car. EDIT: furthermore Teslafi also says 2022.44.30 is downloading even though the car says it is installed. Gotta be a server side glitch. Will...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Teslsa app is stuck saying my car is downloading an update with the rotating activity circle while the car thinks it is up to date! My car has 2022.44.30 installed and maps au-2022.36-14191. Both android and IOS phone app says Software update is downloading 2022.44.30 (100%) and both have been...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Curious... How does the Xmas gift FSD trial expire? Mine says it expires yesterday on 22/1, but is still working today. Will installing the 2022.44.30 which is queued on my car for install kill it? or maybe I get charged $10k if I keep using it ;)

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    I have been using NoA. Doesn't seem to add much of use though. Was nearing an exit on the freeway and I was anticipating seeing it plan and take the exit. Then it started to rain lightly and "NoA not available due to reduced visibility" message. So it reverted to EAP meaning I had to do the...

    .. or unfortunate depending on your point of view. You had to pay for it in the price of the car and not as an extra. Fine if you actually use it.
