I just read 8 pages of comments and can’t find any reference to Hardware 4. Can anyone confirm that the refreshed Model 3 will come with Hardware 4? Any reason that it wouldn’t ?

If this is true you might be the only person who has a Hansshow Version F and Light Show working. There are many comments online about it cutting out after a couple of seconds and no fixes as far as I’ve seen. Do you have any special settings or firmware on your Hansshow install?

There's an install video here: which should give you an idea. I've not done mine yet, but there's plenty of people who have.

Hey - use this one instead: SARHANSSHOW that works for 30% off the Yokes.

In case anyone's interested, Hansshow have a 30% discount for Black Friday active already. I just ordered my Version F with the discount this morning. Use the discount code M3SUB at checkout. You're welcome! :)

@dmaunder - not sure if you've seen it, but there's a thread on this in the UK pages: Scheduled charging restricted to 16A Seems to be pretty random and no real fixes yet. Hopefully the forthcoming software update 10.36.1 which includes changes to scheduled charging (i.e. "be ready by 7am"...

I've seen this too, but I think it can be solved by scheduling the charging, then press the + button to crank up the amps to 32A. This will generally start the charging immediately, so you just need to press "Stop Charging" in the top right of the charging screen. it should then be all set for...

Looks finished now - just flick the switch already! :)

I agree with everything @BarnabySydney wrote, it’s a good summary of how I see the car (coming from a Golf GTI). Only thing I would add is that when you push it really hard in a bend there’s a tiny (and satisfying) wiggle from the rear end before the traction control clearly catches it and...

Just wait until Tesla gets their bill from Telstra, that’ll be the end of that

Oh, and here’s the connector:

Only change is that they appear to have had a carpenter in to do some work at the back of the charge stalls. It’s certainly slow going....

It’s talking tough until you actually do it - which is the whole point of why I asked if anyone had actually refused to take collection. I agree judgements are clouded because people are so excited about the cars and have been waiting so long. In my opinion there are too many people on here...

Has anyone actually refused to take delivery after seeing their car? If so would love to hear how that went. There have been a lot of people talking tough on here about “I would refuse to accept it...” and also to be fair a lot of badly damaged cars, but I’m not aware of anyone actually...

This forum was more fun when we were tracking ships across the pacific, trying to find hidden VIN codes in websites, discussing whether we could find $25k down the back of the couch to upgrade from SR+, etc I’ve just read 5 pages of personal attacks about who superchargers are for and DAB vs...

Depends whether you call $3.89% expensive? Personally I don’t. No doubt some people can find a bit cheaper rate, but it’s minimal difference really in these days of low interest rates and cheap borrowing.

Same here! Just got a call from No Caller ID, they’ve brought it forward to Sunday. Richmond, White SR+

I have my invoice. Build date 19 July, not sure when Kota left Oakland.

Damn! Looks like I might have been watching the wrong ship all along! (I assumed my 4491xx was on Kota Ekspres) :)

Yes, 11km on mine. Others have between 5 and 15kms. I’ve seen them drive the model 3s off the production line in Fremont to the storage yard, so can guarantee yours already has at least 1km on it :)

I tend to agree for the roof itself, but the tint on the rear glass fades to nothing as it goes down the back window. I’m concerned that if I get the side windows tinted, then the rear will look weird in comparison.

Most of the delivery calls today seem to be for Friday 27 Sept, which is a public holiday in Victoria... something about a football match apparently.

I have pickup scheduled for Richmond on the 23rd, but still no sign of my invoice. Concerned that I might not get it in time. How long before delivery have most people got their invoices?

Brilliant - good to hear :) I’m collecting mine at 4:30pm on Monday, seriously thinking of taking Tuesday off work to enjoy the car for a day. And to install all the accessories I’ve already purchased.

Well spotted! And finally! ... Bah! No RHD mats (neither all weather nor carpet mats) - c’mon Tesla, can’t be that hard! You are leaving money on the table...

No, that online Tesla parts store has been available for years in the USA. Although there are a few other random countries that have it, places like the UK still don’t, so I wouldn’t hold your breath here in Australia. For the Model S and X here there is a one-page PDF of parts you can order...

Ha ha, your neighbours will assume you’ve fallen on hard times and maybe take pity on you :)

I’ve recently been on a tour of the Tesla factory in Fremont. They were making LHD and RHD cars intermittently on the same line. So for example I saw 3 LHD, followed by 1 RHD, 2 LHD, 1 RHD... There is no need to shut down the line or do a separate production run. It surprised me, but is...

I got the call this afternoon! Confirming details and scheduling in 23 September for collection date at Richmond in Melbourne. White SR+, reservation Nov 2018, Order 31 May 2019, Pepper finance, no trade in. Interesting thing is that my VIN 4491XX is one of the Kota Ekspres ones, it was...

Hey @Vedaprime I’m beginning to think you have an American background with all your “wrong way around” month-day references in your tables and comments. Or perhaps you’ve just been reading too many US shipping schedules and Tesla forums? Let me translate for everyone else. “Kota build dates...

And for those of us with a 449XXX VIN seems like the most likely ship for our cars. Hallelujah! Happy days!

This is all lining up nicely isn’t it @Vedaprime. Nice to see all of your hard work over the last few weeks being validated. Get ready to add another colour to your table for “delivered to customers”

Great analysis @Vedaprime as always. I’m in the 4491 team, so all that heartache and late nights tracking Cap Capricorn were for nothing. Now, who’s going to go and get some spy photos of Kota Ekspress arriving in Sydney for us??? :)

Booo! But also, thanks for trying to figure all this out. Looks like I’m not the only with a 4491XX VIN today, there have been a few others on here and Facebook. If you’re able to do the maths and predict a ship that would be great. Edit: I had a look at @model3VINs and it looks like the range...

Hey @Vedaprime there seems to be a new batch of VINs today not on your previous summary table. I have 4491XX. Please add to your table - do you think this would have been on Cap Capricorn?

Hidden VIN for the first time today 4491XX! Yippee! I know some of you have been at this stage for a while, but I’ll celebrate every little step at the moment. SR+ Reserved Nov 2018 Ordered 31 May 2019 Melbourne No trade in Pepper finance. Will update the tracker shortly.

Here’s what I got in an email from my Delivery Specialist when I asked about my custom plates. They basically need them 5 days before delivery; so you should be fine. “You're definitely correct with the custom number plate selection - we will just need the plates physically on site with us at...

I’m heading into an important client meeting. I might tell them that my wife is pregnant and I need to take all calls in case it’s the hospital...

Refresh, refresh, refresh.... Bollox. No change to mine

No, the difference is that one is renewable and the other is finite and releases greenhouse gases when used to produce energy.

My trade in offer has been added to my account page this morning. I now have a button to “accept or decline” the offer. My finance (Pepper) hasn’t progressed from last night. It still says they will reach out to coordinate financing.

Same here, I think that's fine, just need the delivery advisor to link up with Pepper to confirm finance is approved. I suspect that will happen over the next couple of days. By the way, do many people actually know who their delivery advisor is? I just reserved and ordered online, so haven't...

Nothing is happening today is it :(

Yes it does. It's just that the SR+ is below the threshold. Here's the LCT for the performance model in Vic:

This was the first post a week ago that revealed the checkout process had gone live in New Zealand. It shows up as "Tuesday 3:29am" but I assume that is some weird TMC forum time - does anyone know what actual time that was in NZ when their account pages moved to the next stage?

C’mon Kiwis this is your time to shine with stalking the port and every container that gets taken off that ship. Tomorrow us Aussies will get an update on our order pages and be asked for details of where we want to take delivery, if we have finance and a trade in. This will divert all...

Thanks, the links in post 121 are very useful and I'm thinking about stripping out the Model S and X so I have a handy 1-page cheat sheet for my Model 3. The Model 3 11kW limit I believe is only for the LR and Performance versions. The Standard Range plus seems to be limited to 7.7kW (or 7.4kW...

Can someone please confirm (or fix) my understanding of charging. Tesla's website shows all Model 3's have an onboard charger rated to 11kW: Home Charging Installation But there seems to be plenty of confirmation that the Standard Range Plus which I'm getting is limited by a 7.7kW onboard...

No, you can’t just switch the driver and passenger ones. They are specific to the pedal arrangement and footwell.

I don’t think that’s true. Speedometer Accuracy - Speedo Regulations - RACQ The rule is that they can’t read under the actual speed, plus some controls on how much over they can be.
