I was at the RAA Ardrossan site again today, and the electricians were working on the site. They expect power to be on tomorrow so commissioning can start. Hopefully in a few weeks it should be available! I think RAA has underestimated the demand at Ardrossan. It's a town where a lot of...

Ardrossan charger being installed. Transformer installed on the Stobie pole but not connected. Next to the fish and chip shop. As seems to be usual for RAA it's across the road from the caravan park. Toilets are right around the other side of the block. Better than the Port Wakefield which is...

I often find if I turn off my WiFi on my phone and use cellular data on my phone the app connects to the car. I am on Woolworths which uses Telstra network. If I stay on WiFi it may just sit there trying.

I am in SA and have used it quite a bit when travelling. Motels have let me use 15A outlets (pre arranged). Staying with friends on 10A. And the occasional caravan park on 15A. Hopefully it's use will get less with more chargers around the place. On our next trip to Lake Entrance I may not...

For the number of Burnside stalls, I looked at plugshare.

I am answering my own question as Burnside is getting 3 ccs2 stalls and is listed as 1 in the document

One hopes this document is number of locations and not number of stalls at each location.

And at least something on what chargers are soon.

No tyre stores can get stock of the T1 in Australia. Even Tesla quoted me a T0. I went with a T0.

I regularly use a type 2 to type 2. Country Victoria and Adelaide metro.

I am from SA and used the Tesla Mornington supercharger. Great in that it's at the far end of the car park to prevent being ICEd. Sure the coffee shop is only open certain hours. We took a quick walk around the rose gardens to stretch our legs.

I had a look at Bairnsdale council charger location today. The actual parks have been painted green with the EV only wording. Looks like everything is read for the charger install. I have uploaded a photo on plugshare.

I have now got FW version 2020.24.6.9, and I turned off all of my Teslafi wake commands, and yes, at 1:02AM this morning the car woke up, and at 1:03AM it started charging. So much better. It will mean I will get that bit extra charging each night, as before I would wake it each hour, but as...

It why Tesla putting in 4 bays is much better than just the 1 NRMA charger. Gives some room for faults.

My hope is i will have run a long way before they get to the pin screen.

Ive got PIN to drive set on my M3. So no matter if someone did get my phone they cant drive the car.

It saves it as a favourite but doesnt work as a favourite. Mostly does not switch but sometimes says DAB not available. When you use the direct tune it takes the fraction of a second. About the same as my home DAB radio. But not the length of time for streaming.

DAB+ on my M3 LR AWD is there. It just needs Tesla to enable it in SW. Based on a bug where I have been listening to one station on DAB+ in the car now for weeks now it must be easy for Tesla to do. This thread doesnt seem to have moved them to enable it. What else do we need to do?

107.9MHz is a fm radio station in Adelaide not any DAB station. Its definately playing Hit Buddha on DAB instead of Life FM. As I have been listening to it and they do say the station name fairly often. If i tune to 107.8 i get static and can hear a bit of Life FM.

Here is the picture of what is happening. Not sure if this only occours in Adelaide where we have a 107.9 MHz radio station.

I can now verify DAB+ radio does work in Australia on a model 3 and it just a software limitation. The way I found it is due to a software error. I wanted to listen to 1079 Life FM. It didnt show up in the list so I did a direct tune. But when i set the freq to 107.9 instead I get Buddha Radio...

Maybe, I am now using TeslaFi which is keeping the car awake, and I can see the charging in the last 3 days has been starting random times 1:20am, 1:40am and 1:58am (seems like daylight saving has meant its starting quite late), I had been setting the car scheduled charging to start at 1am, so...

Having Sentry mode on has not worked for me.

Interesting in that thread, Tesla say the vehicles schedule charging will work, where as I have found it doesn't if there is no power when plugged in.

No. Only that meter controlled circuit is the cheaper rate. Any other powerpoint or circuit is the normal rate.

The whole circuit is controlled by the meter. It powers up that circuit late in the evening, and turns it off in the morning. There is some randomness in the start time, so not everyone in the area has their Hot Waters Systems come on at the same time. But the dollar cost is about half the...

It will charge if I go into the app, and wake the car up when the power is active. I have woken up in the middle of the night, gone into the app, and presto, it starts charging. However, I do not really want to set my alarm for 1am each night.....

I have a 15 amp power outlet which is on a controlled load circuit (also known as J tariff), the circuit is used mainly for Hot Water systems, but in certain states you can also use for EV charging (and yes in SA it can be 15 amp powerpoint). It comes on somewhere between 11pm and 12:30, and...

Adelaide delivery of White LR AWD 5YJ3F7EB7LF4884XX has been done. Reservation 1/4/2016 - Ordered 7/8/19. Very Proud.

Got the call from Melbourne delivery. LR AWD delivered to me in Adelaide on Dec 18.

No delivery date in Adelaide yet for me. Last conversation with delivery was late Dec / early Jan

Is the ANL Tongala going to dock in Auckland today?

I am now looking at a delivery of a model 3 LR AWD in Adelaide in “Late Dec / Early January” (Tesla deliveries words). I was originally going to drive my model 3 which “arrived in Sept” to Sydney for Christmas. Does anyone know if it is possible to change the pick up of the car to Sydney still...

If they are on the Seoul Express which is due into Sydney on Dec 13, I cannot see how anyone outside Sydney will get them by Christmas.

5YJ3F7EB7LF4884XX

And for me. WHITE LR AWD. Reserved 1/4/16 ordered 7/8/19. 5YJ3F7EB7LF48XXX Appeared in the last hour or 2

I am a 1/4/16 reservation holder but really would like the AWD version anyhow as the insurance is cheaper. However really want it by mid dec for travel at Christmas. US people would freak out with a 4 or 5 month wait on a order of course. Esp when it was scheduled to be the following month at...

Might have to set up a separate thread for VINless LR AWD as it seems this number is still zero.

Wierd that still no VIN or order dates for anyone with LR AWD. Seems to have fallen off the models being supplied.

If vinless people who ordered the LR AWD direct (ie not a order change) esp reservation holders start getting their VINs or invoices please ensure you do a post here. So i know to start refreshing the page more. Ps forgot to also put in previous post that i ordered with a Sept estimated delivery.

+1 While I do like tunein, I was very much looking forward to dab+. I listen to dab+ most of the time at home

Delivery adelaide SA Reservation 1 april 2016 Ordered 8/8/2019 vehicle white LR AWD black interior

Do not just reply on the word heavy duty extension cable. Even if its 15 amp cable check the copper size. As mentioned earlier it should be 2.5mm. Most extension cables are not designed to be run at a full rate for long periods. So just because its a 15 amp cable itmay not be suitable.

RAA has their head in the sand. All they are planning are 3 on the way from Adelaide to Melbourne. From what I have heard there are none others. One would have thought the Adelaide to Sydney route would have been high as well or perhap a few scattered a few hundred km out from Adelaide to...

Just to finish this one off, thomasw is correct, SA Power Networks have presented at the Australian Electric Vehicle Association a number of times, and EV charging is an allowed load for Controlled Load (now revised upto 32 Amps for the EV charging). To get it installed, get your electrician to...

Most of you have answered your own questions. People who have had contact with Tesla and Tesla they know are waiting to order would not be the focus of any call. I am a day 1 reservation with no recorded contact with Tesla. I am also half way across the country. They couldnt tell me anything...

I was also a day 1 Model 3 reservation, and have had no contact prior. I am in SA so perhaps it was to see what sort of number they are going to transport from the eastern seaboard.

Must be getting close, I had a call from Tesla about my reservation, and asking what I was planning. He said orders opening very soon.

Well said. We just need the Australian government to listen to what is actually happening in the market rather than listening to the minerals council which is 10 years behind.

Remember Sanjeev Gupta is going to power his steelworks around Australia by renewable sources as he says its cheaper and more reliable.
