    Tesla Model 3 - 12V Low Voltage Battery

    Is your battery flat so you could not operate the functions or something? If you can still open then frunk, just open it up, check the size, and buy a new one with similar sizing. Or even a lithium one. Newer ones come with lithium 12V now, size is different I think.

    I think get the RWD unless you really need the extra range or acceleration. For me, it’s fast enough. Range is good enough. I save a few thousand from the state incentive as well. With the money saved, I could potentially buy a BYD Atto 2 or something.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    The translation is some what incorrect though. In the original Chinese text of ‘the first batch of Electric…’, it’s said ‘首批次整船出口’. ‘整船’ means ‘entire/whole ship’. It suggested that this is the first ship since Shanghai Lockdown that is loaded fully and only with Teslas. So maybe other Teslas...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    According to CPCA China, Tesla Shanghai produced 10,757 cars during Apr 2022. 1,512 units were delivered to the Chinese Domestic market. That’s probably why Turandot is not loading our Model 3s. Out of the 10,757 - 1,512 = 9,245 units, most of them must be LHD cars. Out of the RHD drive ones...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Yea, fair enough. That’s also one of my speculations that my friends with P models just like to drive faster than they should, which might be attributing to their rim damages…(and speeding/red light tickets in the mail😂)

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Cool…. That’s basically what I meant. Thanks for the explanation with data. Maybe I got confused with the word hub and rim. What I meant was the metal thing with number 18/19/20. 18/19/20 has similar (final outer) circumference with tyre, so the larger you go, the thinner(side wall) tyre you...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    So the overall size of the wheel is set. The larger number is mostly just the wheel hub. the larger the wheel hub, the thinner the tyre itself. When driving past a hole or bump, the bigger wheel hub are more prone to get damaged not to mention the thinner tyres. Maybe not as often as in VIC. I...

    I am very certain that there would be people would like to take over you order even for a fee…..

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    No one really knows. But looking at your order date, which is Apr…. I would say just place another order for the RWD and see which arrives first. Once you receive your car and if you like it, sell or cancel the other order.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Thanks to the *sugar* roads in Australia…. I would prefer the 18 over anything larger, as the larger tyres are ‘thinner’. My friends who own the P models tells me about their tyre problems on a daily basis

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    That’s some really healthy attitude. I am so anxiously hoping I could receive my car next month.
