So originally the upgrade to a 75 was $10500 and now today it's down to $3050! I just paid. Seems too good a deal to pass up and just in case it went up again! Anyone else pull the trigger? It is going to long road trips much less stressful and improve resale eventually. People who paid $10500...

Just out of interest, did Autopiliot Hardware 1 Model X's make it to Austraila? I was tossing up between S60 and the X60 and the design studio for X was live before the announcement for hardware 2 was made. Also I remember the X60 was around $120,000, seems cheap for an X now!

Just received the warning message in the dash "The 12v battery needs replacement, contact service centre". After only 5 months since new, a new record? Tesla Richmond not answering the phone too.

Watch until the end...!

My 2016 late Model S has had noisy wipers since day one. They squeak and vibrate when it is raining even heavily. Happens when windscreen is very clean or very dirty - the bottom of the drivers side wiper vibrates when it moves. Is this just a problem with mine or everybodies? Cheers

Just replaced my key fob battery after only 5 months after some errors happening with Summon and occasionally not having door handle extend immediately. The battery replacement has made Summon more reliable with less error messages and the doors now open as soon as I walk up to the doors...

A Ludocurious Lite mode would be a popular download. Could be a good way for Tesla to get more money out of the new S60's or S75's. I'm sure with software tweaks they could get the 0-100 time for the 60/75 down to near 5 seconds flat. I'd pay $2000 for that. Which else 60/75 owners would?! Cheers

Seems like a good time to buy with Model 3 on horizon and excitement building and the Trump effect. If you have, what platform do you use? The regular banks don't seem to trade American based shares. Thanks

My EV sticker is coming off in the middle of the number plate from heat or dampness I guess. I just tried to remove the cover from the bottom and pressed the tabs but with moderate force it's stuck tight and I don't want to break it, any ideas? Thanks

I'm thinking about longer road trips in my Tesla now and just wonder if breaking down in say Brisbane with a drive train problem, would the only option be trucking it to Sydney? And the cost of trucking would be ours?

My wife and I have 4 days off together coming up. We are looking for a trip family friendly short break maximum 5 hours from Melbourne and doable in a Tesla, so near charging! Happy to camp or hotel it. Any ideas?! Many thanks!

My mother in law was babysitting my two year old and dropped a bombshell when we came back. "So I was talking to one of my neighbours, and their Tesla was stolen from outside their house in Glen Waverley". No no, I said, couldn't of been a Tesla, you'd need the keys to steal them, and even if...

So I was unplugging the car in my garage and my two year old was waiting to get in the child seat, I moved half a metre away to hang up the charging cable next to the car, the door handles retracted and there was a scream! Unknown to me my little girl had put her hand on the door handle. No...

Hi there, My new Tesla Model S had a message "Driver Assistance Features Unavailable, contact Tesla services if the problem persists" for second time this morning. Last time a couple of weeks ago it went off by the time I drove home from work and everything worked normally. The car is spotless...

Hi there, My Tesla Spotify account in my car says "Unable to connect, try later" for the last two days. All other connected things work like Tune In radio and Google Maps. Anyone had the same issue or know the solution? 3G signal is strong and also the same when connect to my home's Wi-FI. Thanks

I have noticed that when my car is fully charged (406km on my new 60) after a few hours it begins to lose charge even whilst its still plugged in. I got down to 402km and the charging had not started again. Short of unplugging and replugging in, how long until the car tops its self off? Thanks

I'm really loving my Tesla, one month in I can't see ever going back to an ice car. Driving home tonight in heavy traffic on Autopilot I had a couple of cars nearly go into the back of me. I find whilst on Autopilot and in a traffic jam the car accelerates quite hard when there is a gap in the...

Usually when summoning out of garage in the morning the car stopped as soon as it got to and sensed the steep slope my driveway is on. This was awkward for me as I have to close the garage door manually so I used to need to summon, get in and drive back another metre, get out and close the...

Hi there, With petrol cars I was always told if you are running out of petrol 56mph or 90kmph is the most efficient speed to drive to try and get to the next petrol station. If we are running out of charge, what speed is the most energy efficient to get to the next charger?

Loving the car but seem to get the "both pedals pressed" warning very easily. I find especially on a steep hills the car rolls back at a T junction unless you have your foot on the brake for a spilt second after you press the accelerator pedal, but you get the loud bongs and "two pedal pressed"...

My wife and I took our baby in the new Tesla to Yarra Glen today. Coming back from a great breakfast my wife noticed literally 20 people standing around the car! My wife was planning to breastfeed the baby in the car before the trip home so that was off the cards! They were friendly and wanted...

Practically Green Festival My wife spotted this event, hope to attend in our new Tesla! Already asked the community farm if they will install a Tesla destination charger. It's on Sunday 16th October 10-4.30

Hi everyone, My Tesla Wall connector just arrived at my house yesterday but I am not sure whether to install it right away or wait until November to see what the AGL deal requires. As many of you may know, AGL is offering from November a $1 a day plan to charge your Tesla as much as you want...

Hi there, Just bought an inventory solid black S60 from the Melbourne depot; apparently someone cancelled their order. It is currently at the docks and delivery is "within the next two weeks". Can't wait! It completely base though, so hopefully that won't be an issue. Standard cloth seats, but...

Hi there, Just joined. I live in Eltham North in Melbourne and I am very keen to get a Model S. I have seen the base 60kw rear wheel drive model is around $115,000 new, but I am hoping to spend about $80K cash on a used one in any spec. Is this realistic? Currently on Carsales the cheapest ones...
