No, i did not. That would just reinforce the bad attitude some people have. Finally battery has now been replaced by Tesla. The cost of the battery was $140.55 (ex GST). I was originally told it was covered by warranty at no cost. I am happy with the result as i did not expect a consumable...

Thanks for the info on the battery specs. 85B24LS (45Ah) That is a big help. I will see if i can confirm this with Tesla and see if i can find a battery company who is some help. There is a local company here in Cairns who Tesla say can swap the battery without voiding the warranty. Made a few...

Thanks for the info. Good to know that the 12V can last a long time in a Nissan leaf. It does get pretty hot here. many days over 30 C in the shade in the garage but we get a few 40+ C days also. Way hotter in the sun. I almost never saw a white car when i lived in Sydney. Here 30-50% of the...

Getting a replacement battery appears to be the problem. I have replaced many car batteries over the last 10 years (6+) I would normally call RACQ and get them to come fit a new battery. They will not touch the car. Says none of the batteries they have are suitable. They can replace a Tesla...

Thanks for the video on how to change the battery. (i already have that bookmarked)

I used the Tesla app on my phone to request service 10th may. Spoke to a helpful Tesla tech who advised in my case the error messages say i should not drive the car until the battery is replaced. 8th June is date Tesla app says battery will be replaced under warranty.

My Tesla Model 3 Performance minus, ordered as soon as the web page opened in Australia (Delivered to me Oct 2019) now needs the 12V Lead Acid Low Voltage Battery replaced. Tesla have advised me not to drive the car until its replaced. Apparently as its within the 4 year warranty period they...

This is likely to be my last post on this issue. I went and bought a new Pixel 6, and the Tesla App is now working fine. I suspect battery life is way less than i currently have, but time will tell. I expect my wife will get this to replace her phone soon, and i will end up having to buy a...

loxmyf "I can’t imagine trusting the security of my car to an old unsupported phone operating system that’s riddled with security vulnerabilities." I would suggest to you that exactly the same applies to the current version of Android. My point is that i do NOT trust the security of ANY...

Thanks everyone for your replies. As well as the 5 of Samsung Galaxy Note 3 (N9005) phones i also have 8 additional original batteries, so a total of 13 phone batteries. This phone has a removable battery which allows me to run on battery for several weeks without charging. The battery life...

I suspect the minimum version of android required for the Tesla App to work was raised yesterday to Android 7. I purchased a Model 3 performance the day the web page opened in Australia. Yesterday my login to the Tesla app was disabled for both my car and the 2 Powerwalls i have. I spoke to...

I live in Far North Queensland. I visited Motor Transport to clarify some issues about the EV tags. I asked if it was possible to order and pay for new number plates that include the moulded EV TAG as you can do in other states. It was explained to me that QLD has No INTENTION of ever making...
