Hey Ray Sorry to hear you're unhappy with TOCA. We're a new club, yet to even have our first AGM. But in the time that we've been begun, we've held over 40 events, have established the loan adaptor program (so members do not have to buy adaptors) and the co-pilot program (for newbie owners with...

Thanks @DJung - just heard the same from someone else and was going to let @Electric Joe know too. I do have a work order open on the car.

@Electric Joe I'm getting that message too. Have rebooted car and phone to no avail.

The day I picked up my wondrous Tesla, I noted I felt nauseous with the air conditioner on. The delivery specialist knew what it was: the ioniser. Sure enough we switched off the function in the controls and the nausea went away. In the recent heat as my city moves to summer, I noted the same...

Thanks so much for the offer @austinEV but we're looking for transport on the Sunday - one Aussie to Menlo Park and the other to San Francisco. I'm trying to fix the message blocking, but no joy yet!

"ICE is the new Horse & Buggy" It certainly is, PJF000. The link will be good for our member resources page :)

Nice work Colin! Thank you.

Professor Tim Roberts, one of the organisers of the event, is happy to chat with Tesla owners about charging issues or maybe someone wants to drive on the track on the day :) Please contact him on Tim dot Roberts at Newcastle dot edu dot au. Tim has also mentioned that there will be a Hyundai...

Yes I have this set up.

I don't know what tariff31 is, but in the ACT the EV tariff runs similar hours (though different times each night) and I'm paying 9.13c /kWh. 32amp maximum.

I was so excited I posted my own spot.

Wow that place is gorgeous. Ten hour drive from Canberra according to Google.

Here's the TMC post with an Article about the Bowral Meetup Article about the Bowral Meetup

Can't I have short and low? I don't want a long wheel base. The S is the longest car I've had and I hope the 3 (which I plan to get) is indeed shorter as promised. I don't want a tall car though, as I prefer to sit closer to the road.

Here is the write up of the Bowral Meetup held on 27 January for your reading and Tesla viewing pleasure :) Largest Tesla meetup in Australia to date — Medium

Great write up, thanks Daemon.

Go ahead Chuq, what's your URL?

Or entrance stage left (through the passenger seat!)

It was a great day. Here's the photos for an immediate fix :) Welcome to Facebook If the link doesn't work let me know. 37 cars 66 people

Very happy with Spotify, but I'd love an option/filter to automatically block all songs that call women bitches and hoes.

Actually, technically that was spotted in Canberra, Colina :)

I've had a 70D for three months and due to a repair, I'm now driving a 70. I like cars that are tight and responsive to drive, and the 70D is so much better than the 70. Traction feels better as well. I'm not an engineer so won't join that discussion, just adding my two cents as a driver who...

George wrote today: "I just got a call from someone in the office asking me if I wanted to cancel this afternoons meeting. I stupidly asked why and the answer I got was that it was raining. Won't your car short out?"

Everyone - please let the NSW/ACT owners you meet know about the Bowral Meetup on Jan 17. They aren't all necessarily interested in a forum but may love to come along. Put this tinyurl in your smartphone and share it! http://tinyurl.com/gnumu57 Sorry for the cross post - but here's the link...

Another Canberran

I hit a roo and the "active hood" deployed Here's a close up of the froot internals taken standing at the passenger door, showing the top left section under the bonnet. You can see the broken nut and the piston that pushed the hood up. Tesla need to replace the actuators, sensors...

Excellent. Thanks Colina.

Forgot to add: the indicator light is on for the airbags. So maybe, while they weren't deployed, they also need to be reset.

As explained to me, the car drives completely normally in this mode. Only the aesthetics are affected (and there's a slight increase in car noise, and also I suspect the aerodynamics is affected a little).

Ok - questions answered below. - I heard no explosion Dborn. The service centre didn't mention pyrotechnics (fireworks on board?! :) - no Colina I don't think the active hood reduced damage to the car. There's a crimp in the nose's paintwork (and a bent plate) but that's it. I think active hood...

Two kangaroos jumped in front of me today and I hit one. Broke its leg, poor thing, but it still managed to hide so I couldn't find it to tell the injured wildlife people. Anyway, the hood (windscreen side only) raised a few centimetres and I got an "active hood deployed - call Tesla service"...

What does it sound like when you rev it?

Excellent news! Please RSVP if you haven't already :)

There are plenty of tickets "left", it's more an issue of accurate numbers for catering and planning meloccom

Heostat (and others) if you plan to attend please RSVP!

My last ICE was the Audi Quattro and after the all-wheel drive there I couldn't imagine going back. Same with the glass roof. Both are must-haves for me now.

We have the best car. I wouldn't want any other.

If anyone on this thread hasn't yet seen it, look for the "Bowral Meetup in January" thread - would be great to have all the Canberrans there!

Insurance seems to be just as much tied to the individual's details (address, parking type, history) as the car itself. I've seen people get 'cheapest' quotes from each of the insurers - there's no one size fits all apparently here.

Will you challenge it? I can't fathom that was the intention ...

No promises Telepilot, but you might like to give people a hand and let people know your area?

Btw we have a few people coming on their own-some and many of us haven't met or conversed before.

From the restaurant: "The barbecue is dependent on the best produce available – we may have some alternate items however pork & prawns are the main focus."

I'll check Dborn.

Hello everyone, Let’s meet up, break bread and create a stunning photo opportunity. I’m organising a Tesla meetup in Bowral on January 17 and it would be great to have you join us. Lunch will be at Biota Dining from 12:30pm, and the grazing BBQ menu in their gardens includes: suckling...

Gorgeous! Congrats. You'll have so much fun :)

Actually wpapua I ordered those plates on 1 September, 5 weeks before I got the car.

Thanks wpapua :)
