    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yes, there are a few of us. Depending on which ship you were on, lots of the cars are still stuck in NSW awaiting truck transport down to Melbourne. There's no visibility as to when that might be. You might be first, you might be last. It's infuriating.

    Congrats! This gives me hope, as our details and circumstances are almost identical (different wheel size, I think that's all). Your car must have been brought down via truck. I can only cross my fingers, but it's not looking likely mine was on the same truck. Any date in the first half of...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I was on Viking Sea, but apart from that we're the same. It's so frustrating for two reasons: It was unloaded from the ship at the start of May, in a different state, to save time because the Melbourne port was so congested. Meanwhile, ships have since docked and unloaded in Melbourne, and...

    Exactly the same date changes for me, and I'm also at Port Kembla. It's especially annoying because I'm about to go overseas and I was really looking forward to the pickup experience. I don't want to have to get a friend to pick it up.

    Australian Model Y Feb-May gang

    Happy for you mate! You've been good around these forums so congrats. I'm still crossing my fingers for my own car. Seems like more and more people are getting delivery SMSes for the same car and same location, but with later order dates than mine. Not just here, other forums too. I'm happy...

    The delays are due to massive port congestion, if you're not aware of that. Not much Tesla can do about it.

    The app is just broken. Stuff disappears and reappears all the time. I don't have my car yet so I can't speak for the app when the car has been delivered, but it's always been broken like this so far (for me). Regarding your question about delivery dates, they'll generally give you a couple...

    Ahhh, good info, that explains it, thanks. Honestly my igorance with all this is quite staggering 😂 My build date is 3/4, so I have to assume it's in the country somewhere by now, probably on land.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    My VIN has been in the RAV database since the 4th of May, which I understand means the car is in Australia, but I've never been able to see it via the Molace tracking site. Can anyone shed any light on what it may mean? Shouldn't it be trackable there because it arrived on a ship? Or is it...

    It's pretty clear it's only an estimate, not a promise. It changes a lot based on the conditions at the time.

    Happy for you mate! It also excites me for my own situation, as we've had all the same date ranges and delays, plus a similar OD. You getting a text gives me a lot of hope 🤞

    Just google "RAV database" and search for your VIN. It'll tell you if your car is acknowledged by Australia yet.

    They'd be getting a lot of blame for delays I imagine, for things they cannot control such as shipping congestion. It must be rough.

    Bad news. My EDD just got pushed back :( Was: 4th - 25th May Now: 17th May - 7th June

    Cheers for the info, that's good to know. What you're saying makes sense, if the ship has docked which has triggered the SMS, then maybe it takes around 3 weeks to be delivered after docking, then that would put me within the 3 week window that starts today, so it more or less matches up.

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I got my "delivery is approaching" SMS and email today, but my VIN still hasn't appeared in any database or ship tracking sites. No idea if my car is on a ship, already unloaded, or about to board. I did wonder if the SMS is auto-generated because today is the first day of the EDD window...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I did have Feb-May for a long time, yep. Build date 3/4. And we're almost the same, I'm silver rather than white paint. Apparently the paint difference matters (although I can't see how or why). My EDD was originally 30th April - 21st of May, but it got bumped back to 4th - 25th as I referred...

    If it helps, I have a similar order except I ordered 6 weeks before you (late September). I just got my VIN last week, and it didn't disappear like it did for a lot of people. EDD range of 4-25th of May.

    Ultimately you don't need to worry too much, it's just a very bad website. I'm in the same boat (made a small payment, can't see it reflected anywhere) and things on the site disappear and reappear all the time. It's just an overall bad experience, but we've just gotta wait it out. At the...

    My EDD range is getting close, so in preparation I transferred $50 to the bank details that Tesla provides, just to test that I have the right account before I send the whole amount. Today I was sent an SMS saying they've received a payment from me, and I can see the remaining balance in my...
