    How do you listen to music?

    if you upload your music library, doesn't it then 'exist'? are you talking about a particiaulrar style or ethnicity? I don't claim to know how much there is from everywhere, but material published by major labels should be there

    How do you listen to music?

    you said it wasn’t possible and I explained how it worked apparently it’s not what you want anyway sure, I pay for Apple Music - it’s a subscription service I originally wanted Carplay, and still do - in my spouse’s 500e, with Apple Music it’s even better if you have all your music on your phone...

    Model 3 roof glass crack

    I can’t see a ‘sliding screen’ do you mean one of the shade screens that fit below the glass roof on the inside? they’re fixed, not sliding I have those and I can’t see how they could crack the glass

    How do you listen to music?

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    today I noticed the icon for a speed camera for the first time it's the one on Homebush Bay Drive oppposite DFO I was driving through the Westconnex tunnel, but no camera was shown there I'm fairly certain there would be one

    Finally getting second EV - any hints?

    yep I’m thinking of looking into that we had some film done on the windows but were told that the roof was already tinted, and they’re somehow different the guy who did my Model 3 is a helpful chap, so I’ll discuss with him

    Finally getting second EV - any hints?

    I don’t normally venture outside the Aus/NZ part of this forum, but I was casting around to see whether anyone else has a Tesla and a Fiat we recently added a 500e La Prima to the fleet to go with my 2022 Model 3 LR spouse loves it - she’s a former Bambino owner, so had a soft spot as well as a...

    Novated Leases

    I’m leasing my Model 3 through Maxxia I recently got a second lease for my spouse to have a Fiat 500e to drive every time I’ve had to lease a vehicle - this is the sixth, since 2005 - there seems to be ever-more-opaque stuff going on that delays the process I put a deposit on the car in early...

    How do you listen to music?

    I would have preferred Carplay but Apple Music offers a big library ie everything in my home computer and more I don’t expect fantastic sound quality my spouse recently got a Fiat 500e and Carplay works well on that, with the bonus of Apple Music as well I guess Tesla doesn’t regard having a...

    Euro crash tester says carmakers must return to physical controls - Impact on Australia?

    a while back I drove a Peugeot 508 for a few months they have a thing called i-Cockpit note that row of buttons below the air vents it's a bit better defined now - back then there were hardly any visible identifiers on the buttons, so there must have been an upgrade over the period I drove...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    I use the Westconnex tunnel between Ashfield and Sydney Olympic Park the car has never really worked out that there's a tunnel, even with relatively recent acknowledgement that I'm driving on the M4 rather than Parramatta Rd I sometimes wonder whether it's using the speed limits of the...

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    good news - I’ll be away for most of November in EV heaven aka Norway, so it’ll be a nice surprise when I get back I guess the section of the council that paints the road is a separate part from the one that installs chargers, which is separate from the rangers running Sydney is a mega-operation...

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    this is something I suspected about the Westconnex tunnel in inner west Sydney it opened a few years ago but satnav took a a while to update ie it still thought I was driving above ground on those streets with their many changes of speed limit is it possible that it still uses those limits, even...

    State based EV road user charge (Overturned 18/10/23)

    it might even help in achieving some rationality on energy policy and pricing - ok, faint hope

    State based EV road user charge (Overturned 18/10/23)

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    per my post above, the council advised that once they receive a photo they have to send a ranger to identify the vehicle in the space and issue an infringement I presume this has followed legal advice that Joe Blogg sending a photo is insufficient evidence

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    one problem is the lack of public visibility of the change or of the enforcement the signs are small and a bit confusing no paint on the road they have paperless infringement notices and for a while they weren’t even chalking tyres

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    I reported via the council's own website - maybe they have that to avoid the rent-seeking

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    yep I suspect council people feel overwhelmed with the scale of ICEing

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    he said they act on every report if there’s someone nearby it’s ok but otherwise they send a ranger to the spot my photo isn’t enough evidence

    Kerbside pole-mounted chargers are now a thing

    it’s about six weeks since the Brown St unit went live the two charger spots are ICEd most of the time - one car is there almost every day I was reporting to the council regularly until I got a call from the head ranger asking me to stop

    Changes to NSW EV incentives

    Novated Leases

    one thing I discovered recently - and it's annoying - is that Maxxia don't offer minor scratch cover anymore I called a number about a scratch on my car and the guy answered by my name, because I'd dealt with them previously with another car he told me I wasn't covered anymore

    Novated Leases

    it’s odd because they would make more from selling the accessories as a bundle I had the accessories well before the car arrived

    Novated Leases

    not sure what you mean about the $400 - a home charger? seems a bit cheap at the time of negotiating my lease I was struck by Tesla’s instransigence re accessories I had a list including OEM roof racks and a wall charger but they would only offer the car - everything else was a direct purchase...

    Novated Leases

    I used Maxxia - I think that's the only choice my employer allows it's my sixth go around with them I can't comment as to how they compare fun fact: they arranged to have BP issue a fuel card so I can charge all the petrol for my M3LR to my Maxxia account less fun: last year I submitted a claim...
