    Model Y Accessories for Australia

    They are good. So much so that I’m considering them for my new model 3. Just need to make sure it is compatible with the ventilated seats (which the description mentions but you can’t really tell from the sample pictures). Was hoping they would run a discount code for Easter, but only the nz...

    New M3SR vs LR

    Has anybody noticed higher phantom drain on the LR? I’m comparing my Model 3 LR (highland) to my Model Y SR (2022). Overnight, my Model Y doesn’t lose any % at all, where as the Model 3 is losing a couple of %. I remember when my model Y did that I haven’t set sentry to exclude the home...

    Minor carpark dings caught on sentry

    I’m usually not too fuss about these little car park dings and light scratches but when the car just returned from a major repair, and this happens, it’s very frustrating. The sentry cam caught the other party in the act but since it was the side view, the rego was captured on a different...

    Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

    Wireless charging is heavily influenced by the alignment of the coils. More energy is required when it’s not perfectly aligned and probably what’s causing the overheat. The way the charging pad is placed, the coils will only align perfectly with certain dimensions of particular phone and coil...

    Australian Model 3 highland accessories

    Anyone bothered with seat protectors? Saw tessories had these and the description says it doesn’t interfere with the seat ventilators. Any feedback will be greatly appreciated. https://tessories.com.au/product/model-3-2024-seat-covers/

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Might have to do the same. But I don’t know when the bank will approve the fund transfer and provide the settlement remittence, therefore I cannot book in a new delivery date. Not like there are any slot as well, Tesla mentioned 90 deliveries booked per day. SG Fleet is saying it’s outside their...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Going through a not at fault claim with them right now for my Model Y that got side swiped. The first assessor they sent me to luckily doesn’t repair Tesla (was worried since the google reviews were terrible and I didn’t opt in for choice of repairer), but the second assessor had a whole bunch...

    Australian Model 3 highland accessories

    Had these for the model Y and end up replacing it with the mesh fabric with Velcro. Why? Since it’s hard plastic, the kids use it to scrap crap off the bottom of their shoes. Edit: for those using chargeHQ and have multiple Tesla. What is the best workaround? Multiple accounts or easier to...

    Australian Model 3 highland accessories

    I order and received these https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006107683837.html Instead of clips, it’s using electrostatic electricity to hold it up. Saw a couple of videos reviewing them and the comments were they are a bit of pain to put up. But once in place, it blocks out a lot of heat...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Sentry was on but it didn’t auto save the footage to its own file. Side swipe impact didn’t trigger it and by the time I realised and saved it, it was more than 10 mins ago. Footage was still in the hour long recent video but I couldn’t work out how to clip the video to its own file. In the end...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    They have third party property but I’be lodged a claim with NRMA anyway (I have comprehensive). Get them to chase it up. Have to pay my excess first but likely will get that refunded since they are at fault. However, I didn't opt for any repairer and NRMA is sending me to motorserv smithfield to...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I did ask the staff at parra and they said the floor mats and front trunk and rear sub storage liners are identical. I noticed the side boot pockets are different. as for the console organisers, they look the same but depends if the port cutouts inside have moved. I did see the hidden...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Yes but that’s got nothing to do with USS. The model Y has it. That’s more to do with the code in the auto park or summon feature.

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    But the rear camera is perfectly fine and doesn’t really need USS. It’s the front that needs them since the camera is mounted high and cannot see what’s directly in front (to a certain extent) due to the angle.

    New M3SR vs LR

    Does the LR actually get 100km more range? 400km vs 300km is 33% more and I don’t think the battery size difference is that much, plus the dual motor vs single motor. Would have thought it was more like half of that

    Vendor Retractable Roof Sunshade is on Sale!

    I don’t think it would interfere with the airbags deploying since the frame slot in above the pillars. Still is a concern that you have a frame that’s not designed to crumple and who knows what will happens in an accident.

    Tesla Software updates - Australia

    Got the notification to update to 2023.2.12 on my model Y. Though when I view the release notes, it's only showing 2023.2.0.5 sentry mode lighting and 2023.2 auto steering wheel heat Is it because I dont have FSD so the FSD improvements dont apply? Should at least show the other bug fixes

    PPF in Sydney

    Rear window is the smaller view when looking back. It is separate panel to the glass roof Can’t remember if the roof was an extra $400 or $600. I didn’t get it done since I was going to get the full shade anyway.

    PPF in Sydney

    When I did the tint at Tint a Car Alexandria, they said they don’t do PPF themselves but had contacts to get it done. Asked for three quotes, front bumper only, front high impact zones and full PPF. They mentioned they can include interior PPF if I went with the full option. However, since...

    Labor Electric Car FBT discount

    The concern with the second hand market for BEV and PHEV are the state of the battery. Buyers already have range anxiety with purchases of new vehicles, do you really think the same buyers will want to get into a second hand car with degraded battery?

    The inevitable first ding

    Sentry mode captured a child opening their car door into mine. He noticed it and stared at the mark for a bit (all on the footage). Didn’t tell the parent who got out shortly after. No dent and only a small mark but it’s still painful to see it on a new car.
