    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I wanted to relay some experience regarding glass roof and Tesla climate control. Driving to Mt Gambier from Sydney and back recently, 3 days were 38 degrees for most of the way. It was perfectly comfortable in the M3LR. Only adjustment was dropping the temp from 21.5 to 19.5 and moving air...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just cancelled my MYP order. Reason I gave was Product: Interior not differentiated from base. Would have preferred the Long Range being happy with the M3LR. Drop in resale of M3LR. Was looking forward to the seat access and space - plus looks and performance but weighing up I can't justify the...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    The rattle in my driver's door card disappeared so nothing to report re delivery issues. Only tyre pressures needed a boost to clear the warning. The ride and quietness are way better than I expected. Delighted with the vehicle and ditto the drive experience. Maybe in years to come M3s will be...

    Yes there are good instructions and QR codes to speed the process. I had thrown out the Quick guide. Don't do that. Then it's a 15 or 20 min job.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Well I just spent 3 hours learning how to configure the wall charger I had installed by someone inexperienced. If Ludicrous Tom hadn't mentioned the password being inside the unit in his video I would be waiting on Tesla support to reissue a PW. I just hope the actual wiring is OK. The lights...

    The rattle is coming from the top middle of the door card somewhere.

    Just picked her up. There was a prominent rattle in the driver door over bumps but it settled right down in the 15 minutes it took to get back to my home office to work. They allow 2 days to report any delivery defects. She came with the mobile connector with two plug tails.

    Morning Clara docked Port Kembla 30/7, I got the delivery invitation 2/8 for 4/8 delivery which was the 1st available. So 5 days for Sydney south which is closest to Port Kembla.

    Yep I got the same temporal butt clench that indicates that the Morning Clara may beat the Armacup EDD to Port Kembla by a day or two.

    Remember to compare the net payments and marginal tax rate benefits i.e., pre and post tax on the novated lease, against any post tax loan option. The residual will have a GST component so you save part of it as I understand. Also, early payout penalties may affect your decision if you are...

    My SMS has a link to a site to complete NSW Registration online. The online app includes an NRMA CTP application. The account has a new attachment being a pre-filled registration application. However, there is no link between the two so one assumes that the Account attachment will eventually...

    I also suspect that recent Aussie VINs are too few in number to be from a dedicated Aussie production run. It feels like rationing behaviour. ...but then, why start making the MYs?

    Don't you just ride faster than the traffic when you can't use your mirrors? No, seriously,respect for riding in winter especially in the rain.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    My experience is that fulfilment to Australia has been severely rationed this year. No individual activity (incl. VINs) should be taken as a corner being turned. Tesla are proven unable to forward plan, communicate, and stick to any estimates. One can only sensibly hope that rationing eases via...

    Here's fate. I can't let Karen behaviour alone. Yes I finally got a VIN. I thought Hoopyfrood must have done his "thing" and a few of us need to eat humble pie now that we see that the flea on the tail can actually wag the dog after all! What exactly did you do? Last I saw you were charging up...

    I'm on the side of patience and I honestly do trust that a commercial concern will try to honour it's commitments as best it can. Talking here about how long we are waiting, in my view, is ample signal to Tesla of our disappointment. You feel the way you do. I respect that. There is a more well...

    1. Saw the Vedaprime alert on this channel that VINs would commence 2. Opened the smart phone app and saw the vision and range acceptance request. Looked but no VIN in app. Looked for final invoice - none. 3. Looked for source code on PC and found it

    Fingers crossed for you. It's hard to believe that they would make my M3LRWB and not yours at exactly the same time in production when our orders are both Nov/Dec21. I'm inclined to think yours will be allocated next day or so.

    Hmm. Looks like some Aus allocations are starting. I got a VIN. I also had to accept another reduction in range to 602km when I visited the account page.

    BMW 528 2016. Likely the best car I will ever own but am very selfconscious to drive a luxury car so will be glad to sell it. Eventually.

    I ordered a Model Y Performance this week and noticed that, rather than an agreement, you only get a reservation acknowledgement on the order page. However the same rider appears on the agreement attachment that says that price is subject to change due to "charges". Still suspicious. I'm glad...

    Installed my Wall Charger in December. It's hung on the outside of the house facing the driveway and street. The neighbours find my excitement and misplaced optimism very amusing as they regard the charger's idle lights at night. Disappointed geek feels.

    The Tesla UK site has the Model Y @ £54,990, the same price as the Model 3LR! You can add £2,100 to the Y for the Performance wheels/tyres and be only £500 over the price of a M3LR with the white wheels. AND Aug vs Feb23 delivery. Checking US and Irish sites shows an expected 8% or so gap so the...

    Unbelievable considering all the Q4 orders yet to be allocated. Well done! What specification is it so that we can complain with justification?
  37. S

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Well I doubt that any LR/P were produced in Q1 for Aus. So few mid Q4 LR/P people on the thread were supplied that they were likely cancellations from Q4 stock.

    It's just possible that you have inadvertently opened the page in a different language/region. I noticed different wording in my pages but looking at the URL it was US-EN not AU-EN.

    Good to know that you have become a delighted new owner. Safe and happy kms to you. Reminders like yours that the car is well worth the wait, plus all the useful info of course, helps while languishing in the waiting room.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Oh that would make a lot of customers who are waiting now well beyond the estimate at the time of their order more than a little angry. We have heard from people on this thread who indeed got a cancelled car as they were first on the list. So I am hoping that the information you received is not so.

    Many thanks. You have put my mind at rest. I wish my SA was as informative.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I'm also waiting on a LR ordered a few days before you but no one has officially mentioned delays. Hope you don't mind my asking but what did you receive for you to say that your order was officially delayed to Q2?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    6-9 months if you were ordering today according to the custom order page for Aus. I have no solid idea of what my ETA is because, unless I missed it, I have not seen reports of VINs being issued yet for P or LR versions apart from a couple of cancellation re allocations in Jan-Feb even for Nov...

    I ordered in the 8 -12 weeks period back at 4th Dec but unfortunately I ordered a LR. Really hoping that there are no further delays foreshadowed by the lengthening delivery times.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I'm going by what the SA said at the Paraweena Rd Tesla centre when I ordered. They said that they would be doing next deliveries from there.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Ordered a M3LR W/B 4th Dec at Taren Point Sydney. No VIN or EDD or SA update. Noticed that the "8-12 weeks" message disappeared exactly after 12 weeks passed. Tesla seem worried to avoiding embarrassment but happy to keep a false lead time even when obvious that it will not be honoured.

    The wording differs perhaps because, like me, your page defaults to generic region and lacks the Australian regional section "en-au/" in the url string. Must be a relic from how we navigated the the account page.
