    Australian Model 3 highland accessories

    Jesus, that's a bummer. FYI, I did email them on Tuesday asking them to cancel my order, the day before the floor mats showed up. I figured I should cancel and just buy from the Aussie site, who say they have stock and are cheaper!! However, I have no idea if my boot and frunk matts will show...

    My tracking still shows it being in Hong Kong, no updates since then. However, I have just gone outside and found a box on my doorstep, which contains the car mats. But, just the car mats, not the boot and frunk. Be interesting to see what everyone else has had delivered....

    I finally have an update!! Mar 18, 2024, 10:00 YANWEN Logistics Give up to Hong Kong to raise the cabinet This is interesting news, I assume they are raising the cabinet because they have realised that my parcel had fallen underneath it and got lost there?

    That's good news, gives me hope. Where did you get that btw? For me on the tracking website it just says "not found".

    Thanks. I have sent a message. Frustrating thing is that the Aussie site appears to have them now... I should have been more patient. Cheers

    Same here, no idea where my mats are, emailing them has been no use at all. I am tempted to cancel and get my credit company to reverse the payment.

    lol, cheers. That’s what I am trying to work out. Was it always there? So weird I only noticed today driving back from the service centre. Makes me think it wasn’t. If it wasn’t there before I would be so pissed off that they did it without telling me, kinda feels like vandalism tbh. The car...

    Do you have one on the outside too? I have one on the inside, but also the outside. And it looks ugly as.

    A very weird question, I know. But for those who have had the recall done for the middle child seat anchor… Today I finally got round to going to the service centre and having this recall over and done with (my lease company were chasing me to do it) and had the new shelf fitted, all good, easy...

    Okay thanks. Will wait for her to call and see if she can open and close it again and then drive home.

    Weird issue tonight, my wife has taken the car to a thing she is at, and is parked out in the street. I have been getting alerts that the frunk is open. I can see on the camera that it isn't. I have called her, and she has been out to check it and the frunk is closed, not unlocked. But the app...

    Really well. They look the same as they did when I first sprayed them, even after a couple of washes. I did remember I bought some real letters for the rear from Ali Express, and was looking to put them on last week, but when I opened them I realised they were plastic, and no better than what...

    My wife is a lot more mad at me than I thought she would be. Halo BLK might have put another nail in the coffin of our life together, only last week I said we shouldn't buy a new rug for the lounge.

    I am very close. I have realised this morning that the price quoted is AUD, which makes it feel like I am saving money... Haha. Yesterday I assumed it was USD. My car is loaded and finger shaking above the buy now button.

    Where are the mats from? Been trying to find a post on where you got them, but easier to just ask… ;-) No worries, I found them. Jeez… I am glad that they look so good for that price. Gonna have to think about this one….

    Jeez, your mats look so good. I wasn’t going to bother but seeing them has made me change my mind.

    I find the battery life a bit weird, interesting. I am not the kind of guy to delve much into these things and don’t have the patience to track kms and the like. But to my mind the battery does run down quicker doing lots of short trips, which is my usual driving tbh, and yet on a longer...

    I have been treating mine like I did the ICE and just running it down. Got to 18% on Thursday, my lowest yet and charged it up Friday to 100% by Saturday morning. Did a trip Saturday morning starting with 100% and was my first time to actually made an effort to test the range. Drove 170km and...

    Anyone put any “go faster” pedals yet? I finally got round to installing mine today, bit of a pain to install, but got there in the end. The accelerator doesn’t feel as tight as I would like, I mean it holds on okay, just feel it give a bit when I pull it. I did warm up the rubber first and...

    Yes. Works well. Although haven’t worked out how to get it to unlock automatically. I swear it did first time I used it but not that last couple of times. Had to open the app on my phone and hit unlock. But it might be something I did. Need to play with it more. My issue with his car is that I...

    I have downloaded the Tessie app, just to test out before I commit to paying for subscription. It allows you to open any door. I also have the Watchla app, which cost $10 but allows me to control the car from my Apple Watch. That too lets you choose which door to open from your watch. I like...

    If the driver of the black M3 highland who passed me this morning in the Northern suburbs of Brisbane is on these forums, I apologise for the weird looking hand signals I gave you. I did instinctively wave, but then thought that might be too dumb to wave at random strangers and stopped, but then...

    I’m the same as you, in that am only charging by granny charger, at least until I need something more (but to be honest I don’t, works fine). But am not using the Tesla mobile charger, I bought a cheaper one from Amazon, and it charges at 10A every time. Am charging now and just checked. So...

    I never thought to test it out purposefully like that. I can confirm mine works exactly the same as yours. Not a problem when I am staring at it parked in the garage. Maybe this is just user error, not paying enough attention. I am going to make myself look at the screen and do it carefully for...

    Cheers, that is good feedback. Mine is still not great so now I wonder if I should get it looked at when I am at the service centre (had an email today about recall for the rear tether). Yesterday I came within a literal 2mm of hitting a large concrete plant pot at the front of our house...

    No private podcasts in Apple Podcasts app?

    Apart from the issue with subscribed podcasts which really sucks, anyone having issues with syncing? i.e starting a podcast on one device and hoping to finish it in the car. Mine doesn’t seem to like that and starts it from the beginning.

    I think that the biggest problem they faced is that everyone who had taken delivery of their cars had already built their dreams. Changing people’s dreams with a recall is not as easy as it sounds.

    Yes, they suck. I have found a fix though, and works most of the time. I just plant my foot down whenever I get the chance, like a rocket, and the water instantly clears from the windscreen. Doesn't matter where I am, or who is in front of me, I accelerate to 80kph as quickly as I can most...

    To be fair, I just love the attention to detail that the Tesery bot has been programmed to call anyone in Australia “mate”. Fair play to them. I remember the Indian Call Centre workers in the early days had to watch Eastenders episodes before every shift so they could talk like British people...

    But will they give you protection from all the mess you might encounter? Need to think about that man. And of course, your individual style and the vibe that you want your floor mats to say about you as a person.

    That's true. I lost my parcel shelf because it was never in the car for that reason.

    Actually back of seat tethers are same thing. The strap goes over the top of the seat and fastens at the back. My previous car was the same. The "top" in top tether refers to a strap that attaches the top of the child seat to the car. In hatchbacks and SUVs they usually are on the back of the...

    For what it is worth it feels very flimsy, it literally bounces when you touch it, as though it is floating above the metal shelf rather than fixed tightly to it. I think very thin, and probably just a piece of molded plastic covered in fabric. I will try and have a look later and see if I can...

    Actually that is Drive's photo. It was Cars Guide who used mine. You can tell by the fact it is a Long Range in Drive's pics as they have the rear speakers.

    I joined one just before Christmas, and unless it has changed since then it wasn't very helpful. They just played the training videos that are in the app, and showed me how to indicate (use the stalk), how to change gear (use the stalk) etc.. You would understand why I logged off pretty quickly.

    This. I only found out because of a poster here asking me if it had one. Had he not I would have been none the wiser. Without any facts on this I would say the majority of buyers of this car do not have small kids, they do tend to buy the Y. * For the record, this is not letting Tesla off the...

    Yes, as far as I can tell it is more similar to the Model S rather than the previous Model 3. The Previous M3 had just an arm rest that came out of the rear seat, whereas this the whole seat comes down, including head rest. The Model S appears to have tether points on the rear of the seat...
