4 days of ownership and loving my Model 3 (well 3 days because I took it in for a ceramic coating and lost a day).

For anyone interested, I made a short video about my delivery day.

So, did you choose the house because of the street name?

I used Ceramic Pro. Their service was good and it looks great. Waiting to see results after next wash. They noticed and pointed out to me lots of scratches on the new car so recommend to do buffing. I was given 3 options, I just went with cheapest wool buff.

Chc - peel forest and back yesterday - 300km, 330km range used, 95% on Ap.

V10 Ap is much better. Still a bit learner driver round corners.

 

[daveh_nz]

Yes AP is now smother when merging from 2 lanes back to 1 after a passing lane.
You're right on the corners; needs to learn to slow into the corner rather than in the middle.

 

[RobDickinson]

It also needs to learn to slow down before the speed limit change too, yesterday I was half way through small places before i got down to the 50/70 limit

 

[Ecoli]

Yes AP seem at bit like learner driver on open roads
Not looking ahead enough and predicting what the traffic will do. Slowing down later than experienced driver would and speeding up to quickly . On the whole though its pretty good

I wonder if we will ever see Navigate on autopilot and smart summon here

 

[RobDickinson]

Netflix and YT work on LTE.

anywhere.

crazy.

 

[Ecoli]

Netfix & YT over data connection for limited time according to the release notes

Could only manage 3g connection up north
Netfilx abit slow to load but still watchable
while charging

Does anyone know if model 3 charge port should be illuminated when opened at night

I don't mean the tesla logo indicating charge status.
I mean the port itself. I can't see mine in the dark
had to use cell ph to see it . It was pretty dark were I was plugging in.

 

[RobDickinson]

I dont think its illuminated

 

[ecarfan]

I mean the port itself.

It’s not illuminated. Just the logo to the left of the port.

For anyone looking for a Wrapping or PPF in Auckland
I would recommend The Wrap Shop on the north shore

Just picked up Marvin yesterday.

 

[RobDickinson]

[Ecoli]

It’s not illuminated. Just the logo to the left of the port.

Guess I'll have to make do with my cell phone then.....#1st world problems

 

[Ecoli]

Has anyone got Navigate on Autopilot
