Australian Model 3 Highland experiences, tips, tricks

I think they have just changed the regen curve, I notice it most at the end of the braking curve. Up I until yesterday I would never need the brake to get it to a full stop on the speed I was driving at an intersection. Now I’m having to apply brake right at the end. For the last 10-15kph sort of thing
Tesla app works well on all those phones except for the uwb which is yet to arrive in the android app. I tried in many different versions from android 9 all the way to my latest s24ultra with android 14. All worked flawlessly. So nothing to be afraid of for nothing or oneplus.
Just got approached while picking up dinner by a couple of cops.
They looked at the car and one said “that looks awesome..” i did the only thing appropriate and entertained them with the fart noises.

when I was approached on my S about 8 years ago I challenged them to a drag race…they declined. Probably knew they would lose.
random question:
When charging on a slow charger (<25kw) obviously the charge rate slows right down towards the end. The car gets to 99% as indicated on the screen and charging app. The car then goes to 'calibrating' and the charging app stays on 99% and indicates power is still being drawn until charging finishes at 100%.
On a slower charger this calibration time takes quite a few minuites. Is there any harm in disconnecting while it says calibrating or should you leave it connected at all costs? In my case calibration is done later at night while plugged in.
FWIW after disconnecting the the car indicates 100%.
Just curious....

What is the process to get the controller connected? I can seem to pair it but not connect it? I’m also getting the pro controller coming up and another random Bluetooth device with a serial number

Thanks for this, I tried home and + but didn't see the controller, then tried home and A (and home and X) and got it registered as a 'Gamepad' but then it never leaves pairing mode (flashing lights) so doesn't seem to properly pair. Might be something I am doing wrong or maybe it no longer works
Ok I just tried and disconnected my controller.Thanks for this, I tried home and + but didn't see the controller, then tried home and A (and home and X) and got it registered as a 'Gamepad' but then it never leaves pairing mode (flashing lights) so doesn't seem to properly pair.

Hold down the home + x button to put it in pair mode. I was then able to connect it to the car.
If the pairing mode flashes try holding down the home button which should stop the flashing and try again
I don't think there is any issue in stopping charge at any time of the charging process. The thing that happens during calibration at the end of full charge is that it will slowly trickle charge and monitor the voltage. Let's say 420v is the max pack voltage. So when it reaches almost 410v it periodically stops the charging and wait and then check voltage if the voltage stays at the levels just before stopping the charge, then it resumes charging and repeat the process until the Battery voltage can no longer go up and record that as the Max SoC.
Ok gave that a shot and same issue. I did notice a nano second of a frame which looked like an error so I filmed it in slow mo and grabbed this frame. Looks like it might be a no go

If there is no warning in the manual then I would not be concerned.
Just got another survey from Tesla. Seems to be aimed at new Highland owners, but could be new owners in general.
Questions about satisfaction with quality and features, some good opportunity to provide feedback.

After driving the loaner previous gen model 3 a couple days ago, it made me feel so glad I went for the highland. So much more refinement, quality, luxury fit and finish.
Oh and now that I'm used to the buttons and screen, I hated the stalks Hah!

It was all a bit of a storm in a teacup huh.
It takes vision and confidence to make change.
Its the same everytime someone changes things up, the people with fixed mindsets oppose it while those with open mindsets embrace it. Especially with things that have emotional attachment or evoke a “defend my ego” scenario.
Its how we can evolve, break the traditional “do as we tell you” and ultimately make the planet a better place; one stalk at a time
