There's a lot of claims there. I have a few questions. Which state or territory registration authority has "rejected" the CT? CT manufacturing coming to Australia - how did you come to be in possession of this market sensitive information, and are you concerned about any blowback from the SEC...

There will be a lot of Model 3s coming up to the four year warranty mark this year. Did you ask for anything specific to be checked?

An Australian bringing this case would have an even stronger case given there hasn't ever been access to the FSD beta in RHD markets. Australian Consumer Law wouldn't hurt either.

Personally I wouldn't choose to involve my vehicle insurer in this, just in case you do actually have a reversing accident. Might turn a straightforward claim into a can of worms.

As B3AU suggested, it might be worth starting with a regulatory complaint about the safety issue first as a low-effort/cost first step. https://www.infrastructure.gov.au/infrastructure-transport-vehicles/vehicles/reporting-vehicle-safety-or-non-compliance-issue I've actually experienced this...

The same way we did before seatbelts, airbags, traction control, ABS etc - less safely.

And actively moving things along just before Elon starts to ramble.

I'd flip that around. If Tesla submits a funding proposal that meets the government program's goals and criteria, what would be the basis for rejecting it? If it's just that they have a large network, does the same apply to eg Evie when their number of chargers passes Tesla?

Yeah, reduced efficiency in general leading to more congestion concerns me too. No longer having a fully integrated ecosystem also leads to degraded efficiency measures like automatic battery pre-conditioning, and routing to less congested superchargers (unless we see some API integration across...

2023.2.12 installed, nothing but Minor Fixes. @ARMARM can you please clarify - is this a genuine screenshot of the Tesla app, or an attempt at humour?

Err, "oh ... and FSD Beta"???

It was a Lex Fridman interview with the former Tesla Director of AI Andrej Karpathy. He was echoing similar public statements by Elon about the removal of radar. I remember being pissed off at how hyper-focused the argument was on how to complete FSD ASAP without acknowledging a huge existing...

I swung by today to take a look. No equipment just civil works at this stage. Based on where the conduits are, I'm guessing 6 pedestals back-to-back in a 3x2 config? The other conduits at the back of the photo next to the shade sail pole are probably for the charger cabinets...

I want to run a battery health check from service mode. Unfortunately in Australia service mode is still geolocked. I have verified that I can enter service mode while parked near my local Tesla service centre. It looks like I can also override the default 11km/h speed limit to drive home and...

It's just the tails. My 2019 Model 3 LR came with a UMC Gen 2 with the tails stamped with 8A/12A. Swapped on some 10A/15A stamped tails from a 2022 Model 3 and it started charging at 10A/15A immediately, so guessing if there is a firmware update required, my UMC already received it in the past.

If you have data sharing enabled in the settings, anonymised camera data can be shared back to Tesla for "fleet learning". So it doesn't necessarily imply that FSD beta is running on any Australian vehicles. Maybe in shadow mode, but that's pure speculation.

Getting OT for this thread, but I really appreciate TeslaTom's vids. Definitely don't need to see him undo his top 4 shirt buttons and spend the first half of his videos doing "I told you so's" (EV). Or spouting a bunch of Trumpian memes and telling viewers you don't care if they're triggered...

Just to add some more data. Lodged 2019 M3 LR windscreen replacement claim with Suncorp, default repairer is O'Brien. Dire warnings from the insurer that they would only pay a "fair & reasonable" amount if I didn't use O'Brien. O'Brien: Aftermarket glass "Tesla won't sell us genuine...

Well if they want to offer me a $5k refund to EAP, I'd take it. Not holding my breath on FSD beta being available anytime soon (despite Elon's tweet saying EOY). Even the EAP features are a tough sell at the price - autopark gives up half the time, NOA creates more work for the driver by...

Yeah, I was keen for that feature too, but it's not shown for my 2019 Model 3 LR. Didn't show up in 2022.16.1.2 either. Guessing it's only for very recent models, but not sure exactly what hardware changes would be needed, the cars are already capable of applying the brakes with varying levels...

Was a bit surprised to get the email offering an EAP upgrade seeing I already have FSD, but EAP is not available to purchase in the app or my account as you'd expect.

More likely to be the in-cabin camera. Have you tried miming a conversation :p?

I had a similar issue, but different resolution. The UCA's were apparently still in good shape as all they did was the urethane sealing around the ball joints as per the service bulletin (had to wait for my appointment until they ordered new UCA's in, obviously they were expecting a replacement...

Yeah, I had that in my notifications, as well as UI_a114 Driving visualization temporarily degraded. It took a couple days to get an update to 2022.12.3.2, but all notifications have now been cleared, and no re-occurrence of any of these errors. Visualizations, cruise control & NoA all...

Anyone else on 2022.12.3.1 get an alert "APP_w009 Automatic Emergency Braking is disabled"? The usual stuff didn't clear it, but it did self clear after a couple drives. Telsa service says it's likely firmware related and is pushing a later release out to my car (presumably 2022.12.3.5).

Got my email today. Bit weird to make every EV owner individually order the tags. They used to send out millions of rego stickers every year, surely there can't be that many EV's to mail a tag to. Would probably lift compliance.

Yeah, that would be a great feature. Small town cops love putting a radar about 2 cm past the speed limit change.

The marker is on Queen Street near Albert Street. Maybe either the Myer Centre or Queens Plaza carparks, because there's not a huge amount of available street space? Unless the pin is just a very general "Brisbane CBD" indicator.

Most vehicles that read speed signs use Mobileye's tech/IP to do that, and early Teslas do too. Since Tesla parted ways with Mobileye they don't. Apparently identifying speed limit signs is AP1-only, because it relied on Mobil... | Hacker News I'm guessing the newer hardware vehicles are...

I thought I wouldn't like this either, but because the screen is quite high it's a quick glance to the left rather than looking down to an instrument cluster. I find I still have some peripheral vision of the road while checking the speed unlike on my old car.

Yeah, I'd just call Tesla to make the purchase with the different card. Despite the website looking like you're adding an additional card, you're actually editing the one payment method. So you may not be able to get the original card back on there if you mess with it right now.

Rang Tesla today, they acknowledged an existing website issue with adding new payment methods to your account. Looking at various forums, it's been an unresolved issue for quite some time. Even processing manually on their end sounded like a frustrating process, the guy struggled with their...

Happy new year, and thanks for the suggestions. I have an existing service appointment booked for some minor issues so I've added the FSD purchase/failure to that to record the issue. Already transferred funds to the card that works, but both source/destination don't support the new payments...

Trying to buy FSD for my M3 anticipating an imminent AU price rise. The credit card I used for the initial deposit doesn't have sufficient funds. When I add different cards in my account, it asks for a billing postcode, but only accepts 5 digit numbers rather than the Australian 4 digits. I...

You actually did me a favour there. I went for the same PPF/ceramic package, but was holding off on the tint. Copped some serious sun through the driver's window on the way over and asked Rob if I could book it in after Christmas to do the tint as well. But because the tinter is there doing...

I picked up my red LR a couple hours after you, and saw your car at the Detailing Studio. Maybe I'll see you on Friday afternoon when they're both looking schmick (er).

Looking at the weather for this afternoon, you might want to drive out of the delivery bay and straight back in the underground car park.

I would guess state of charge when it came off the boat, and what it was charged to in Brisbane.

That might be my red right next to it. I appreciate that you didn't squeeze all the way up to the front past it while taking your video :D. Not much room down there with all the EoQ deliveries.

Got my delivery call today as well, next Tuesday. Suits me fine as I have an entire storage unit's worth of stuff to move out of my garage first.

Hey, I just met you and this is crazy But here's my number, so call me maybe...

Yep, still wailing waiting.

The orders must be queued to get to your account. The triple reservation I made 4 hours ago just showed up in my account and allowed me to edit it. I also made a dual motor reservation < 1 hour ago, and that hasn't hit the account yet. TLDR: be patient. The only AU pricing shown was $AUD 8500...

I wasn't logged in to my Tesla account when I made a reservation, but used the same email address, has anyone seen an email confirmation or had the reservation show up in their account? All I've got is a screenshot of a reservation number.

Yes, I got an invoice: late last week But that doesn't necessarily mean our vehicles are on the same boat. Telsa did reconfirm a mid-December delivery when I sent them my documents. Hopefully Veda has more info for you.

@Vedaprime my invoice just arrived. VIN: 5YJ3F7EB2LF5189XX Build date: 22/10/2019

I just got my call from Brisbane delivery confirming a VIN and mid-December delivery, but they declined to give the voyage number or boat name.

5YJ3F7EB2LF5189XX Red LR AWD, Reservation: 1/4/2016, Order: 29/8/2019

100% agree that being so aggressive to ICEers as a first response is counterproductive. That sort of sticker might be appropriate if the same vehicle repeatedly & deliberately parks in charging spots, but it's a quick way to earn an EV enemy for life. I ride motorbikes, and there's similar...

Still shows "Est. delivery: October" for a new order for me. Not logged in, new incognito window, looks so they're still advertising October delivery for new sales.
