    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Wondering if our registration appears in sites like (for vic) :: https://www.vicroads.vic.gov.au/registration/buy-sell-or-transfer-a-vehicle/check-vehicle-registration/vehicle-registration-enquiry ... when pumping in the VIN number. I'm due to pickup shortly, but haven't seen the rego come...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    So... my electrified friends........update :: at 17:33 today, I received the SMS from Tesla requesting me to (finally) select Express Delivery appointment. I naturally chose the earliest, which was 6th of June at Port Melbourne (still a couple of weeks away!!). This will take it to over a...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Mine was on the Morning Cherry, unloaded on the 1st May. (still sitting there) "As of May 19, a flotilla of 13 car carrying ships was anchored off one the country’s main vehicle off-loading facilities at Port Kembla with a further two, the Artemus Leader and the Tonsberg, in the port itself."...

    Oh no... Port Kembla is like a naughty word at the moment. Seems like a black hole where cars go to linger for a month or two. Mine is still there and heading comfortably towards a month on the docks awaiting next steps :(

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Hey Hey bud -- wish I knew for Brisbane. Some of the other QLD folk here may be able to help with their experience (as it really differs quite a bit from port to port). Some of the Melbourne people have taken delivery a couple of weeks after unloading vehicles in Port Melbourne. I'm still...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Ah, we certainly have some shared frustration. Looks like the Viking Sea docked a day after the Morning Cherry at PK, so we're likely both still sitting pretty close to each other in that lovely corrosive salty air week after week. I have a friend in Melbourne (also ordered around the same...

    Keen to know -->> Is there anyone else on here with a car that was on the Morning Cherry (unloaded 1st of May, Port Kembla) and still waiting (like me)??

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Depends on the port I believe. For me, unloaded on the 1st May, and after last conversation with Tesla, they said it will most likely be at Port Kembla until the middle of June -- so that's 6 weeks from unloading to potentially receiving a schedule pickup text (they're setting expectations now...

    Brilliant -- thanks for sharing. I'm hoping to be there soon in Port Melbourne (9 months of waiting has me itching all over).

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Amazing -- great to see. I'm in a similar boat, but still waiting. Do you know if yours was on the Morning Cherry that came into Port Kembla on the 1st of May? (that's where mine is still supposedly sitting).

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Just "unlucky" is literally what a couple of Tesla reps have told me. There's still a massive backlog at Port Kembla from the 1st of May after the Morning Cherry docked (including mine). To set expectations, you may see a number of later EDD changes over the coming week(s) :(

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    I noticed the same thing. I ordered in September 2022, and my order date updated with the new agreement post price adjustment. However, my build date was the 3rd April, and just luck of the draw, those with a build date 24th April that got on a later ship, but didn't get held up at port, have...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Hey there -- so, I received my "delivery is approaching" sms/email when my car was unloaded (from the Morning Cherry RoRo) in Port Kembla and awaiting customs clearance (also the same day my RAV entry appeared). It has been sitting in the weather at Port Kembla since ~May 1st.

    Yah.. it's that word "should" that always unsettles me... prefer a "will". I received my "delivery is approaching" text 3 weeks ago :(

    Same experience here. The different chaps on the phone have been buttery smooth, kind and with a smiling voice say ... "mmmm mmm yes, I totally understand your frustration, be assured we're equally motivated to get you your gorgeous new car. Please wait for the update in your app, and look out...

    BTW -- I did a compare of most of the insurance providers. allianz came out on top for me in Vic (as it varies in each state). Choose own repairer Anyone over 30 can drive Windshield replacement 80k agreed value $1637 [$1500 excess]

    Out of interest --> anyone else here with their car still stuck at Port Kembla (from the Morning Cherry that was fully unloaded and departed on the 4th of May back to Shanghai) with delivery to Port Melbourne? Seems like some of us are kind of first in, last out

    FYI -- I received my "your Model Y delivery is approaching" text on the 4th of May -- still nothing further from Tesla to schedule pickup. RAV entry was also on the 4th of May. Very :(

    Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing, great to see. I'm hoping to experience the same at Port Melbourne in the coming week(s?).

    wow -- makes them feel so close, yet somehow so unpredictably far. Thanks for the pic. [am assuming that's protective tape around the doors, as there's no longer chrome]

    So did yours come in on the Turandot to Port Melbourne (given you're picking up on Friday you lucky bugger :)) ? Super happy for you -- will live vicariously through your joy while I wait :)

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Same. Great customer service from Tesla (given this ongoing delivery issue) would be to not only detail the car, but do/offer a ceramic coating. I'm looking at PPF as well (which would have to go on before ceramic coating). I also don't plan on leaving it out by the sea for 3+ weeks (so to me...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    That's not great by any means. Your RAV entry is earlier than mine, and much earlier than many others that have picked up their car after the Morning Cherry unloaded on May 1st at Port Kembla. I was just told (over the phone by Tesla) that I was simply unlucky that I was caught up in a queue...

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Thanks -- let's hope so. Just seems like luck of the draw in how they manage final delivery. Almost feels like getting a slightly second hand car with it sitting out in the weather for a few weeks.

    Update: Woke up this morning and my EDD has changed from 18th May - 8th June to 12th June to 30th June !! Pretty pissed :( It's been sitting out at Port Kembla since the 2nd of May.

    Do you know how we can check what HW config we have on board (just like SW version, is there a HW version)?

    Australian Model Y Waiting Room

    Yeah, I don't think they've really worked out the "final mile" that well yet. Some pretty big gaps in the sequence of orders, and those receiving (the exact same spec models). BTW, by EDD has shifted a few times, now May 18th to June 8th (no comms yet on scheduling the pickup :( ) Still...
