I have recently signed up to the AGL Night Saver EV Plan as I have finally given up on the Tesla Virtual Powerplant ever getting the algorithms to actually work correctly. Can anyone here who has changed from the Tesla product comment on how long it takes for Tesla to hand back control of the...

Summon will only work on private roads (carparks ect).

Agreed the "paying attention" nag is not very good, it will ping me if I'm looking at the screen to see what speed is set! Feel like I am back at school as I have to sit up straight and face the front. Hadn't considered roadworks, you may be right there.

I find there are now 2 types of AP nags, the one we are used to which is the move-the-wheel one, and a new one that detects when your eyes are not on the road, which has a slightly different warning, and doesn't seem to be cancelable with pressure on the steering wheel. Maybe that is the one...

2022.36.5 is trying to download to my car, though it is having some issues......

Or maybe you should set up a Tesla fan club thread and leave us to criticize Tesla when we feel it is warranted, and I'm with ZeeDoctor and paulp on this one, it is definitely warranted.

My model 3 was among the 1st deliveries in Melbourne (intel Atom), with premium connectivity, and the feature is working just fine on my car.

Yes, you are right, it does look like they are honoring it for AP2.0 FSD subscribers (though I have not seen any reports of them getting it yet), so maybe he will honor the "feature complete" claim for us as well.

Yup, ask the HW1 folk how that played out....

Happy to go along the "journey" with the change to vision only. But what annoys me is that I am forced to put up with 1/2 baked auto high beam system as well. Surely they could have made it an option to have it on when you are using FSD at night or not, and just advise you when the light was not...

With 2022.20.8, my 2019 M3 SR+ will not allow me to select a following distance of less than 2. For those concerned about the high beam on with AP, you can turn auto high beam off using the left stalk, but it resets each time you dis-engage and re-engage the AP, so it needs to be turned off...

Might be a bit more relaxed up there, but down here the favorite sport is cutting in.....

I have seen no change, still stuffs up in the same places as before the upgrade, so I suspect we have not been using the radar for a while. Got to wonder why, if vision only is better than hybrid, we now need to stay further away from the car in front? Makes it unusable in Melbourne traffic.

I know for a fact the Beta testing participation in the US is not predicated on having camera-based Autopilot system, so I would imagine the same would apply here. I think that was just sloppy reporting to add that bit into the article. My understanding is for older vehicles, they can just...

I tried to access these chargers after hours and the code that came up on the screen didn't work, rang Tesla support, and they advised me they were not 24hr superchargers and were only accessible during carpark opening hours, even though the Tesla website advertises them as available 24/7. Has...

I've noticed the same. I do have my follow distance set to 1 as anything else leaves too big a gap, and acceleration set to Standard. Having said that, it used to work fine (no jerkiness) on these settings before recent updates. Hard to tell when it actually started being jerky as I haven't been...

Personally, I find this site invaluable when I have an issue with the software, I can come here and see if others are having the same problem (or if it is "operator error":oops:). If we attempt to stifle people detailing the issues they have, the site becomes worthless. So please, if you don't...

I can see with the UI rewrite, that Tesla has tried to improve things, however, I don't think they have field-tested it nearly enough. For example, I like the repeater-view-on-indicate feature (though it would be good if they could limit to lane change only) and I can see that having the...

I don't know if it is related, but for the last 3 weeks or so, my Wifi connection to the car has been a bit flakey, and quite often I need to manually connect it, or it cannot see my home wifi at all. Before that, it has always been rock solid. Have seen no degradation in other connections to my...

Let us know how you get on, I'm in the same situation.

After a recent update, I have noticed on the Melbourne ring road, the car has started interpreting overhead variable speed signs as traffic lights. In certain light conditions, it will momentarily start to stop for them before realizing it's mistake, and accelerating back to speed. Anyone else...

....and if you 4-tap the right stalk, you get a rainbow road and cowbells! I found that out trying to get this speed sync to work!

Just got 2020.8.3 pushed to me this morning. Nothing new in the release notes. Hopefully, it fixes some of the bugs reported in .1 and .2

The speed warning is one of the best things about this car. The car is so quick I need the warning to keep me in check. If you don't like tickets, use the warning, where the speedo is has little to do with it.

Thanks all for the suggestions to get “hold” to work, updating it in my profile worked. Certainly needs getting used to, but I’m sure it will grow on me. Loving the smart summon, like having a very big, slow scaletric car from my childhood

I assume the traffic cones is to demonstrate the car is looking at other things apart from road lines to navigate? I was wrapped we got smart summon, assumed it would not get passed our draconian road regulations. The "hold mode did not work for me out of the box (still creeped) and even when I...

Just installed 2019.36.2.2 and I now have smart summon, just tried it and it works! Also got hold, traffic cones and scheduled departures woohoo!

Gotta love this car! Was stuck behind a very smokey Pajero Deisel this evening. (shame the Model 3 doesn't have biohazard filter) When I got home, reviewed the recent clips, got his rego, and reported him to the EPA!

Didn't think I put it in drive to get them to work last time? Just went out and tried it, sure enough, fog lights work in neutral, does not have to be in drive, for my model anyway.

You can tap the speed limit sign to sync your speed with the changed speed limit rather than dialing down manually.

Yes, my fog lights are greyed out until the headlights are on, then they are selectable and work (SR+)

Yes, you are supposed to get both, I'd give them a call.

This from the man that thinks driving over 1500 km in a day is “safe” ? Pot calling the kettle black?

Autopilot takes a while (like over a week) to "dial itself in" to our road conditions etc. I find every day it does lane merges and corners better, and the incidence of phantom braking reduces, so give it time. That said, you do need to monitor it closely, with hands on the wheel and foot...

1 April 16 Res, 31st May 19 Order (though changed from Red P- to White SR+ on the 18th July)

Picked up the car today Pearl White SR+ in Melbourne. Quick seamless process, though the staff did not rush me, gotta say they were great and helped make the day special. I have read and watched a lot of stuff on this car in the last 3 1/2 years, but I've got to say, it has exceeded all my...

As work commitments are important to me as well, when they said it would be ready with new battery by Tuesday, I added a couple of days for missed delivery of batteries and went for Thursday.

Is there an Australian equivalent to CarJam, or will it work for Aussie registrations as well?

Agreed, that is not right. My point was that the people we talk to (Delivery) do not make these decisions (refund or 12v battery condition), so be civil to them, ask to talk to a manager, then let the manager know how you feel.

Got a call from delivery today and I've been hit with the dreaded 12v battery virus, pushing my delivery date by 11 days 2nd to 13th Sep at Richmond. While I was very disappointed, I worked with him to get a new date that fitted. . He thanked me for being so understanding and flexible, he then...

The P3 was always going to have mats, the question is whether the SR+ has mats.

Any progress on the Mansfield site? Been a while.....

I am not for a minute wanting Tesla to get a"free pass" on this. I truly hope you get what you ordered (or recompense). I just don't think the odds are stacked in your favour. I would strongly recommend you consult a lawyer (not the ramblings on this site) before you take delivery of the car...

From the Invoice: "Payment to be made via direct bank transfer" and Tesla's Bank details (which are different to the account I have paid previous moneys to Tesla). So no, I don't think you can use BPay.

Obviously, I have not seen the document we will sign on the day, but I would be very surprised if it didn't have a clause stating that you accept the car is as advertised and in the expected condition? If it's not, you don't sign it, or agree to rectifications before signing it?

So...... if they say it is not going to be included when you go to take delivery, will you walk away without the car? Because if you sign on the dotted line, you are accepting the car as is and would have no further recourse. Personally, I think you and others are just going to spoil your...

I'm with Westpac, just a call to their 13 number, increased limit to $100K, went through in a few minutes with no fees, paid Tesla, then dropped it back to my normal limit on line. Job done! (not often I'd sing the praises of Westpac, but this is one of them)

According to Random206's fantastic Excel spreadsheet, only one of the 7 delivery date recipients did NOT have a VIN number.

Is anyone else thinking, since the arrival of the Cap Capricorn, that our cars are already in the country..... cold and alone in some dark warehouse .... wondering why we have not come to claim them and take them home. No? just me then. (sigh) Come on Tesla call!

I've found a way to fix the disappearing VIN's! I have removed the F5 key from my keyboard
