my Tesla app is latest version available for Android and the car is always connected to wifi at home.

i haven't received an update in my M3LR since December, still on 2023.44.30.6, I'm set on advanced for updates but I don't think there is any difference between advanced or standard.

I need some advice, I could be moving permanently from Melbourne to Cairns for work, the final decision needs to be made in the next couple of weeks but being made more difficult because I don't know what to do about my Tesla Model 3 LR. My main concern isn't so much getting it to Cairns, it...

not sure if anyone already made an updated post about this but chargers showing the variable pricing in the car now, I only noticed it last week, not sure how long it has been in place.

one of the people at the charger who was driving a Model Y who lived close by said that they didn't want to pay extra for the umc so had been exclusively using the NRMA charger, instead drives to the charger and charges for an hour or more each time.

hahaha it was Bega!

Good to hear NRMA are going to start billing, can't happen soon enough IMO for the sake of people traveling distance who have no other options. To avoid upsetting anyone I'll just say that we traveled to X. We urgently went to X from Melbourne, we intended to charge in X and immediately start...

I didn't know the back doors didn't have the emergency release handle on the door

is your car still doing it? I missed two service appointments due to a family emergency so Tesla never had a chance to inspect the car. I did provide them with the video though and they told me it would be best to bring it in to be checked. The car has now stopped doing it, so I'm not sure if...

Well I'm just reporting what I am seeing and that is it has been changing so regularly that it doesn't seem fixed anymore, I don't know what price I'm going to get until I start heading to the charger. I haven't ever sighted Camberwell as low as 50c, I paid 67c at Geelong 3 weeks ago so that's...

I paid 57c at Cremorne a few days ago so they must be changing it often because it looks time based to me. I'm exclusively charging at supercharger at the moment because I don't have a working charger at home so I've noticed the fluctuations.

Unless I’m reading this wrong I just charged at Cremorne for $0.54 per kWh. Camberwell is currently $0.50, moonee ponds $0.57

Tires do have expiry dates, I think it’s 6 years after manufacture but it’s usually the case that drivers wear the tires out long before they reach expiry. Someone once told me when you get new tires make sure the tire shop doesn’t put on tires that were manufactured years ago.

It’s slow in my car in Melbourne as well, regularly Spotify and Apple Music are buffering, then I connect the car wifi to my phone (5g) hotspot and it works fine. BYD are using Telstra as well, we also have an Atto3 and never have any issues with spotify in that.

Yeah we disconnected NBN at home too, which was $120pm for 100mbps, connection would drop out at least once per day usually when something important was going on. Now on an $99 per month Optus 5g uncapped speed, I’ve seen it go as high as 600 mbps for short periods.

Some of them are now variable depending on time of day, I’ve recently paid as low as 57c per kWh and as high as 69c. I often use non-Tesla chargers where you can pay as little as 40c per kWh, on Chargefox you can get a 20% discount if you’re a member of or have insurance with Racv, NRMA, etc...

I should add that it just started doing it about a month ago when the car was about 6 months old and done 12,000 kms.

Has anyone experienced their car making this clicking/popping sound (see video). My car does it for the first 5 or 10 mins of driving after the car has been parked for a few hours. I suspect that it is coming from the speakers on the front passenger side but I'm not sure. I've made an...

my car has this problem, it just started at around 6 months of age. I thought it was coming from the speakers on the front passenger side, it does it for approximately 5 mins when driving after the car has been at rest for a few hours. The service centre have remotely looked at the logs on the...

I wish they'd just add carplay and android auto support, they can get rid of the rest of the gimmicks. If Toyota can do it surely Tesla can do it.

Yeah went to fully charged live. It wasn’t as good as I was expecting, I would probably go again if it was close to home but I don’t think I would travel to see it again. The preconditioning could’ve been a factor, it might have decided it needed a bigger buffer to allow for preconditioning...

I just did Mel-Syd-Mel over the weekend in my M3LR, 2 passengers plus luggage. The Mel-Syd leg required 3 stops, Euroa, Gundagai and Goulburn. The return leg only needed two stops, Gundagai and Euroa. We departed Sydney with 95% because the hotel (Novotel) had destination chargers. On the...

I’ve carried a type 2 to type 2 cable in my trunk ever since I took delivery of the car 6 months ago, and I’ve never used it.

that will be great. Well overdue for that area IMO, not only because Shepparton has a population of around 70k but it's also a thoroughfare to NSW via places like Cobram and Tocumwal. There's currently only one DC fast charging point and every time I am there it is occupied with EVs from local...

I made the original listing on Plugshare after coming across this while I was travelling to visit family for Christmas. I said it was a supercharging site based on the infrastructure being installed at the site. Another Plugshare user later claimed it won't be a supercharging site but I've only...

if the payment wasn't made before 6pm eastern time on Friday it wouldn't have been processed until Today.

there would've been about 30-35 cars in the Melbourne delivery centre this morning when I picked up my car, all clean and looked ready for delivery with the exception of missing number plates. Mine had 88% charge on collection.

i immediately after my car was registered yesterday I received an e-mail from Vicroads telling me I needed to lodge my odometer declaration for the EV tax, they didn't waste anytime at all...

I found a Youtube video about it, it was the immersion sound settings. I switched it off and the issue went away. Not sure what the immersion sound does but my ears can't tell the difference between when it is on/off so it will stay off for the time being.

picked up my car this morning, it is great to drive. The standard autopilot seems to be all I need and similar to my previous car. As others have reported the calibration was short, mine was done in less than 15 minutes of driving I was expecting a couple of hours because that is what I had seen...

yeah I need it for the same reason, I will call them tomorrow and try and get it. Only two days left!

Can anyone tell me if you get a notification of your rego number prior to delivery day or do you just find out when you read the plates on the car?

I read that FSD price is going up to $15k on September 5, not sure if that applies to Australia or not but now has me wondering if I should get it as soon as I pickup the car. Just don't know how much of it actually works on Australian roads.

I didn't ask Final Finish what the price would be for partial PPF protection. They have different ceramic coating packages with different products. The one I am getting is full car using Gtechniq crystal ultra for $1,690, so that would be on top of any partial PPF costs. Window tinting was $620...

I think it is LG or Panasonic batteries for the LR and Ps

I'm going to Final Finish in Brunswick East. It was a hard decision and only time will tell if it was the correct one. I contacted a few places that were mostly in the eastern suburbs, a couple of them were $200-$300 less but I decided to go with Final Finish because the facility seemed better...

Today I went to the detailer that is doing my windows and ceramic coat to confirm the booking and have a peak at a Polestar that was in there getting full clear matte PPF. The matte PPF looks great but at $7k its out of my budget. He tells me another customer is bringing in their white Model Y...

I did a quote on RACV about a week ago and it was $2,482.55 for agreed value of 90k. I go back today to check again and it gives me a quote for $1,709.46 for the same selection...

could be people trading in older model 3s for model Ys? Earlier this year there were around 20 Model 3s for sale on carsales, now since Model Y went on sale there's about 400 model 3s for sale.

thanks for the tip, Suncorp is the cheapest so far at $1,970

paid about a fortnight ago

the cheapest insurance I can find on an agreed value of 90k is around $2,000 - $2,200. Does anyone have any tips on more reasonable insurers?

woohoo, just got my delivery appointment, coming Thursday 25th

my car is going directly from delivery centre to get window tint and paint protection which takes another 3 days before I will be enjoying it

same here, it says that I will shortly receive the appointment SMS, I'm taking shortly to mean today!

I'm still waiting for my SMS

the 366kW should be the combined total of the front and rear motors on the LR

I just spoke with Tesla call centre, they told me I can expect to receive my delivery appointment SMS in next 5 days, they said the order in which cars are transported to the delivery centre isn't managed based on order sequences but rather how they've been parked after unloading from the ship...

not yet, I think I will get an SMS in the next couple of days, my delivery window starts tomorrow and my car is on the RAV list so I feel like the appointment SMS could come in before the end of the week.

Mine is on the RAV now as well. Does that mean customs board the ship and start processing the cars before it gets to the dock?
