New tyre time. Primacy 4 lasted 41k kms, compared to 36k kms for the oem PS4 T0. I could have gotten a bit more as the fronts still have decent thread but the rears are at the minimum and the tyre shop would not rotate them. Prices have gone up wildly in the past few months. The Primacy 4 was...

Not from my driveway but i parked outside a service centre once and got to access the menu. So it might be geofenced in NZ.

I have a related problem with the A/C in our car (2020 build). My problem is that my car will still blow cool air on manual mode, with AC even if the temperature is set up to 25C. Additionally the fan speed is very low between 1-6 and will then be almost full blast from 7-10. I raised a...

Model Y in the top 10 best seller list for 2022, in 6th place. Model 3 must surely be close to the top 10 too. https://i.stuff.co.nz/motoring/130937860/from-evs-to-utes-nzs-10-bestselling-cars-of-2022

Try Doozi maybe? If they don’t have it listed you can ask them to make you one https://doozi.co.nz/

New christmas lightshow song is also 👌🏽

Got Summon to work first try in front of neighbours hahahah.

I also updated and now have the Summon command on the phone app. However whenever i go to it, it says it is disabled 🤷🏽‍♂️

Yearly charge stats in the mobile app - its a new update for iOS

This is good news for all EV drivers as it gives us more options, specially during busy travel periods. The limiting factor for these sites is whether their existing capacity can feed fast chargers. Perhaps a battery bank is also going to be useful. I’m working with a company installing heaps...

I usually feel more safe parking on parallel parks than others when i’m out in public.

So i received a ‘tap’ from behind while parked. I had just parked in a parallel parking spot and was just waiting for the other driver behind me to complete their parking when i felt a very light nudge. Sentry was on as indicated by the red icon and car was in Park. I exited the vehicle and...

Yeah the categories and rationale were a bit mind boggling.

RAV4 takes it https://www.driven.co.nz/news/aa-driven-coty-2022-people-s-choice-toyota-rav4-suv-voted-top-by-readers/

I’ve done that trip many times in my 2020 SR+. Leave Welly at 100% and you will get to Mangaweka Supercharger (2+ hours without stopping) and arrive with more than 30%. Have a coffee or lunch (i recommend their mince pie or lasagna) and your call will have enough to get you to Taupo SC or even...

*grabs popcorn*

sometimes my car won’t auto unlock unless my iphone is awake. And it usually happens when i am holding something heavy in one hand and forces me to put said things down

As far as i’m aware summon has never been included in basic Autopilot. You need Enhanced Autopilot or FSD to have summon.

Congrats @montybhai all this will be forgotten once you have a few trips done. Enjoy! Red/Black/White combo looks amaze!

I thought that recall only applied where a previous service was done on the rear belts, in which case the method of reassembly needs to be inspected, and if required, reassemble.

Both aeros on the red and MSM. They add the plastic covers on as part of the delivery prep.

Got absolutely dirty

I guess for the time savings you might as well use the superchargers in Johnsonville. There are also heaps in Lower Hutt and Petone where there is no parking fee. If you are coming from the delivery centre in Avalon.

The local Welly manager dropped by as part of a mobile service today and he said about 200 Model Ys being prepped in Welly, including some YP. Next week looks like its going to be busy.

I’ve had the FR upper control arms and lateral links replaced under warranty, the SC says the parts are now in revision D, so they have been updating them as cars rack up the mileage. My car just went over 70k but still over 10 months til wof. I’ll have to schedule one in January before my...

My brother’s delivery date for a white RWD 3 just got brought forward from Feb-May 2023 to 9-21 Dec 2022. Must be another ship due or is this from same boat that’s on its way?

Having to drive behind slow cars

new wheel look

That’s good to know. Hopefully we get a good outcome soon

Did they update the Model 3 to esims? I seem to recall that this was in the works. If Tesla has been using esims then a network change could just be a OTA but older cars (like mine) will require a physical swap.

Rangers selling well in October should fill up the coffers for the November boatload of Teslas hahah https://i.stuff.co.nz/motoring/130363755/ranger-bites-back-in-october-registrations

I find the early regulars still wave and it’s pretty low percentage with anyone in a newer car.

Based on the YTD numbers, Y will overtake 3s this month unless the incoming boats are full of 3s too.

No I think you are confusing alarm activation. Sentry events are currently only visible in-car. The car doesn’t notify the app whenever a sentry event is logged.

I’m guessing it will be a future feature to notify on the phone app whenever sentry is triggered.

Got to my destination (7km drive - 10 mins) before the nav even started searching for the address i wanted to go to. Just kept saying ‘offline’ - surely premium connectivity pricing needs to reflect the poor quality service right now until they sort it. @Audietron you’re up 😅

Its probably the time of the year i am booking - a week out before Christmas. I didn’t mind the price, just the lack of information.

I gave up trying and got a full size SUV for less than half the price. $1300ish for the Model 3 before any insurance upgrades vs $526 all-in $0 excess. I’m sure i won’t use up $800 worth of petrol in 4 days. Maybe next time!

Raised a SR for a different issue and got told that parts are now available for this recall. Just waiting to confirm whether they can get a couple of replacement harnesses from Auckland and my car will be booked for next week.

Thanks, its for a 500km drive from ChCh to Queenstown with 4 people and will need to charge a few times so need to plan accordingly. Assuming it will be a SR+ Will keep trying their call centres until i know more.

Hi folks, has anyone rented a Model 3 from Avis NZ? I’ve been on the phone with their call centre a few times now and nobody seems to know: - if the cars come with a charging cable - if I can use the superchargers - if i need to use my own chargenet account Any advice and feedback would be...

High beams are not illegal lol. But there is a right way to use them in the right situations.

It sounds like you need one of these

A current annoyance is how grabby and panic-inducing the corrective steering function is. Without fail it will correct me at a roundabout, thinking i am steering into the wrong lane. Most commonly at motorway off-ramps, it will try and pull me back as a edge closer to the left line.

have noticed it now too since its been pointed out. Welly-based.

Awesome! Cannot wait to get this update!

Keen to know if Live Sentry has finally made it?

Looking forward to having this feature but disappointed that we don’t have the boombox feature to make the most of it.

You will probably use more energy on that commute, the motorways are mostly 110kph right?
