None of them for you though
Sadly
One of the blue ones might be the vehicle that was originally allocated to me though.. Don't tell these people but they all paid $2500-$3000 more than if they had've waited a few more months!

model 3 has 2 lumbar supports, one sacral/lower lumbar support and one high lumbar support.
circular button has 4 ways. Rearwards deflates. Forwards inflates the top and bottom cushion. bottom only inflates the bottom cushion. top inflates the top cushion only.
Are you talking 235/45R18? Original fitment on the SR+ is Michelin Pilot 4 (not 4S) AFAIK

Estimated Delivery: June 19 - June 28
My delivery window is still moving. According to my SA, the Victorian orders were starting to arrive this week (subject to change). I do hope that as we get closer to the end of June that it becomes a bit more narrow.
Also checked my VIN with VicRoads and it's not yet registered (bummer). Looks like end of June then.

The VIN is only registered the day of or the day before delivery appointment. So it won't appear until you select your appointment. learnt it the hard way.

Thanks Nobody, you're right. PS4 not PS4S. Brother in law said just get some cheapy Chinese tyres, they'll be fine, but I'm not knowledgeable enough about tyres to know whether this is wise... Thinking I'll stick with the PS4s instead, maybe use Chill mode to get a bit more life from the second set (hmmm, but it's a Tesla!)
Might be a silly question but do the tyre pressure monitors get transferred to new tyres? (Never had a car with TPMS before).

Make sure you tell the tyre fitter that you have TPMS or they might get very broken.
In selecting a tyre its important that the structure of the tyres caruss is capable of withstanding the weight of the car (plus load) as well as the stresses when being driven in a spirited manner.
The data is available, but also be mindful that some Chinese manufacturers have a habit of providing data that you want to see, not data that reflects the truth.
My price got adjusted down by Tesla after I had paid the deposit.Sadly

Chuq is waiting for Tasmanian legislation for a rebate, not a price reduction.

.. and I spoke to the State Minister for Transport at the Devonport supercharger launch, he said it will be second half of this year (non-specific) and it's probably best that I cancel and re-order since orders placed before the start date may not qualify.

Automatic Car washes ?
To date have only hand washed my 3. I am feeling lazy and my car is not so precious after 18 months. I imagine many of you are using Automatic car washes like the ones at BP. Any issues? Manual says to use touchless car washes, but I suspect many people ignore this. I suppose wipers to off & select neutral. Any other pointers other than not to do it

Hand wash only for my tesla. When I collected it my detailer (doing opticoat t the time) asked that I insist tesla not wash it before delivery, as its done by the transport company. I watched them clean a new bmw. Broom in bucket, broom washes around the bottom first, up in the wheels, then roof, then bonnet. Broom then sweeps clean the concrete hardstand, car is changed….and broom goes back to work.Automatic Car washes ?
