    Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

    I've had it a few times when I was setting up Tessie and messing with the car a lot through the API. It will go away with a 2-button reset if it doesn't resolve on its own.

    I've got one of those... might only be 1mm to 2mm in size. I don't know whether it's worth doing anything with it at this stage. I'm sure I'll get more and it would be easier to get them patched up all at once I would have thought.

    Can confirm the Bowden's Own Snow Job foams up like crazy. My neighbours must have thought what the fk am I doing to my car when they saw the foam carnage.

    Thats awesome... does it block a significant amount of air from the vent though? That's always been my concern with these displays.

    Now I'm confused! are you getting a refund or not? or is it just the different international teams and AU team communication lacking?

    I have both and my wh/km is like 125 average so I don't think we are talking anything significant. I'm confident enough air gets through the car, and like dronus said, I had only done 3000km and found cigarette butts in there too already.

    Would towel drying the car really risk causing scratches and swirls if its been cleaned properly using 2 bucket method and/or foam first?

    Vendor Official Tessie app talk

    Thanks for confirming, it does seem like no requests have been recorded for a week or so here. Would there be any issue calling the "Wake" command every 5 minutes? Not sure what the Tessie API rate limit is - and how often to ping the car to keep it awake. Sentry is certainly an option but...

    What would be a good endpoint to call every X minutes to keep the car awake? For example while archiving sentry footage using TeslaUSB. I have tried the "state" endpoint with use_cache=false every 5 minutes and the car will fall asleep still using this.

    The way the paint becomes a mirror again after a quick wash is extremely satisfying. I'm currently doing a weekly foam pressure wash, rinse and hand dry that takes maybe 30-45mins and I love the result. Although might drop to bi-weekly soon 😅

    With more air in my tyres I can feel the road way more, on nice road its fine but when I cross onto "bumpy" unsmoothed surfaces I get this annoying rattle that sounds like its coming from the dashboard near the air vents.

    Over in Perth we have had a few cooler mornings this week and low and behold my tyre pressure warning has come on, although they're at 39 PSI all around. To me that's fine Elon wrote something that you can run at 39 PSI for "comfort over efficiency". Although I don't like the warning light and...

    Ive got this setup - works very well, except often the car goes to sleep before its finished archiving. There's some solutions available for it described in the wiki, e.g if you use TeslaFi you can put in your API key and it can ping the car to keep it awake while archiving. I don't use it but...

    I have the knob on order too and thought about cancelling it a few times but I got it on the black friday pricing which I'll never get again. I think it will have its uses, and the team are very active about adding new features, improvements and updates to tesla compatability. I am not sure you...

    It's crazy - especially when you press down to overtake and move lanes in one manouvre, its so quick you have to be careful to complete the lane change before you're in the back of the vehicle in front. Just Tesla Problems™️

    It's been hit and miss for me. Some things it gets perfectly, other times I tell it to turn on the wipers (which don't come on nearly quick enough in the rain) and suddenly I am heading across the nullabour to some obscure business named Wiper One.

    Just wondering if you should disable the Tesla phone key if you're using the Tessie one - or if you should leave both keys connected at the same time? And what if you have a watch one as well?

    No doubt.. but since I drive to the gym and back and shower at home im conscious that may not last :X Honestly the ventilated seats go a long way in preventing B.Os sticking to the seats though, probably my #1 favourite feature exclusive to the refresh.

    The good ones do reduce glare and are less prone to fingerprints. Ofc it's definitely high on the "optional" side of accessories

    Screen protectors are the worst. I spent so long cleaning my screen and applying perfectly. Then I put it on and start driving and notice a speak of dust.

    The first few shipments were hampered by the child restraint tether issue - with that out of the way it's all done to delivery centre capacity. From what I see they have many weeks of backlog to get through. Depends on your location as well.

    As cars depreciate, the agreed value bands adjust. Therefore to insure for the same value you would be higher on the 2023 "range" than 2024 - therefore higher premiums. Also they probably have data showing as a car ages its more likely to be involved in an accident. Not saying its fair but just...
