    umc extension

    Note that my UMC has a right angled 240v plug on the end, so doesn't really fit in most of these weatherproof connector covers when connected to an extension cord, so choose one that will fit. Definitely get a heavy duty extension cord. david

    Spare Tyre for Model 3

    I bought the full Modern Spare set for my model 3 in Dec 2019. At that time Modern Spare was also selling their stuff via eBay, and using that was significantly cheaper (mostly due to lower shipping costs). I bought it that way. It took forever to arrive. I don't know if they still sell via...

    SR+ after 2 years

    My Sept 2019 SR+ has done 39,000 km, mostly city driving (I live in the inner west of Sydney). I replaced my rear tyres a couple of weeks ago. My front types will have to be replaced in ~6 months. I never rotated them, so the wear was quite different front to back. I still enjoy the occasional...

    Tritium delivering 0kW charge issue

    I first had the problem at the Orange charger on the 13th of May (of this year). I hadn't used an NRMA charger for several months, so it could have started happening well before then.

    Tritium delivering 0kW charge issue

    I've had the same issue (I think) at the Mittagong charger twice and the Orange charger once. In all cases I was able to get charging by stopping charging in the car interface (I have a 2019 model 3 SR+), unplugging the cable, putting the cable back in the holder on the charger and then waiting...

    ModernSpare.com

    When I got it (December last year) the cheapest shipping option I could find was through their eBay store. It cost $390US for the kit + $86US for shipping + $56 in import charges. I got the complete kit.

    ModernSpare.com

    I bought this for my model 3 (base model). Not much I can comment about it. You get what they say you get - no surprises. I haven't had to actually use it yet, but it seems fine. The fabric case it comes in makes it easy to lug around. I usually don't have it in the car - only when I'm driving...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    I have a model 3. I updated it this morning and immediately went for a drive. Voice commands were not working then - for example I would say 'set temperature to 21 degrees'. The display would display the command and then display something like 'activating climate control', then nothing would...

    Modern Spare tyres for S3X

    I've been thinking about getting the Modern Spare wheel, but it's pricey to ship it here. Does anyone know what Tesla would charge for a model 3 18" wheel (for use as a spare)? It's not in the list of upgrades and accessories on the Tesla web site.

    Model 3: sizing information?

    Measuring my car, the widest point of the opening to the boot is 1050mm. However, the narrowest point of the boot is between the wheel wells, and that is 960mm (and there's no way to go over it). The height of the boot opening is 450mm. You're not going to get a sheet of MDF in there. I doubt...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Remember for some reason we get the US manual for our cars. The notice in the manual is complying with US regulations (FMVSS 208 stand for Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 208). It's possible Australian regulations are different.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    My car (received today) was charged to 83%. Lots of cars being delivered at Alexandria today, and seemed that most of them were white - my delivery person said that previous days had been mostly other colours.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Picked up my car today from Alexandria - a pearl white SR+. Awesome car and a lot of fun to drive. No problems with the car that I could find.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    Yes, you should hassle them to send you the rego document (you need to fill it in and send it back to them). It took a phone call to them in my case, but others have had luck sending them an email about it.

    How to get premium connectivity on SR PLUS?

    If I remember correctly, that FAQ entry dates from last year, so I wouldn't hold my breath.

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    After getting the call, the email from the delivery person only included the invoice, not the rego document. I sent several emails asking for the missing document, but didn't get a reply. Eventually I gave up on email and just called them (on the sales number). Took a few tries, but I got...

    Photography Tesla Vehicles

    Huh. I just happened to be at Carpenter Rocks a few months ago. I'm from Sydney, but was in Mt Gambier for a work trip. We had some time to kill before the flight out, so drove down to Carpenter Rocks to have a look at the Southern Ocean. Cool place, with an impressive wind farm just inland...

    Tesla Model 3 in Australia

    I also received a VIN today - 5YJ3F7EA6KF473xxx Pearl White SR+. 1st April 2016 reservation, 31st May order. I assume this is also on the Brotonne Bridge.
