Welcome. Your EDD will change a million times. Basically it's Elon just acknowledging he's working on it, just like:

• Cybertruck
• Semi
• Roadster
• Sending people to Mars
• Full self-driving
• DOGE to buy merch
• Buying Twitter

They will all happen, but the timeline a lot longer than his PR hype suggests. Follow Mr Miserable shipping thread ... Assume you are on the third or fourth boat (from the date of order) is my suggestion.

EDDs are broken

HELP!

Good morning all,

Whilst trying (unsuccessfully) to Bluetooth my phone to the car this morning I noticed something strange in my list Bluetooth list : S79380ddb5c86df43C. It does not have the circle with the information "I" and I cannot open it or switch it off.

I wonder if this makes sense to anyone here ; perhaps something to do with Tesla or perhaps I have had my Bluetooth hacked.

Your comments will be much appreciated.

When you move the car does this Bluetooth device move with you? It could be a device with a weak signal (Wifes Phone inside the house).

I have the same and presumed it was something from the car and still believe it is.

Nothing I would lose sleep over really.

I would not disagree. However, for balance, Elon himself is the PR Department. I don't believe Tesla spend the multi-millions that other corporations spend on projecting their own image in a positive light whilst undermining their competitors.

The subtle and not so subtle use of just about every information source to undermine Tesla and the amazing contributions, current and planned, they are making toward the future of the planet is very sad.

Now then.....SWMBO says......" Easy for you to say now that you have graduated from the Class of Q2"

Thank you for that Buster....then I won't

Thinking about it will it not be the wireless phone charger, is that WiFi or bluetooth.

In-Fact I have just done a search and found the answer (I believe) It's for the phone key doing the handshake.

Have a read.

This appears in my Bluetooth list with status as "Connected" but without the opportunity to look at it via the info circle which is not there.

Read my post above mate, I have edited it.

 

[BushFox]

That is quite bloody; a straightforward config for cash ordered in February! Have you sought an explanation for how your order has fallen between the cracks?

I did, especially as later orders for same spec were filled in Q2. Answer filled nearest to ports as ships arrived close to quarter end. North East is far away………. Offered to travel to Southampton but to no avail. Learning is move to nearer a port where Teslas are delivered to get short supplies or late cancelled orders looking of a home.

Looking at that there are a couple of people who have ordered a M3 rwd just last month and got estimate delivery dates for next month? Is that possible? Where from?

It's the "handshake" (probably my incorrect term) for the connection to your phone as a key for the car. Quite separate from a Bluetooth connection you may establish to stream music to the car or make phone calls. See @busterboy response above.

I am in thesame boat, my EDD hasn't budged either in about 5 or 6 weeks now I think. Ordered mid April, EDD Sept / Oct.

I had the same EDD but was revised to Sept 5 to Sept 30 about 3 weeks back. Order date was 10th April

 

[Toppyawe]

I almost think it’s fair to estimate that late March and early April will have EDDS from late August to early October and the extrapolate from there

and to further assist in your downward spiral of sanity

I thought I would start a new thread for 2022 on European bound ships carrying Teslas.
The first logical question is why on earth would anyone on a Tesla forum be interested in shipping?

The answer is because once you have ordered your revolutionary expensive new car you enter the Tesla blackout zone - a frustrating period of non-communication from Tesla when you have no idea of what is happening with your order. If you call them, they just say they 'are waiting for a match'. What does that mean? Tesla don't build Model 3/Ys to order - they build whatever they want and then match what has been ordered to what has been produced. This 'matching' usually happens around the time the car is loaded on to a ship. Aha! Shipping has suddenly become interesting!

All Model 3s for Europe are currently made in the Shanghai Gigafactory and are shipped to Zeebrugge, Belgium or Koper, Slovenia through the Suez Canal in a journey taking about 30 days. All Model 3s for the UK are currently shipped from Shanghai direct to Southampton.
Normally Tesla fully charter ships to transport their cars but during 2021 they supplemented the charters by using available space on scheduled services too. For 2022 Tesla have contracted Hyundai Glovis to supply a number of ships to deliver cars produced by the Shanghai Gigafactory.
Model Y for the UK will come from Shanghai in Q1 (Q2 onwards is meant to come from Berlin).
At the time of writing this, Berlin has yet to produce anything, nevermind ramped up, and so I expect Model Ys for Europe to continue to be shipped from Shanghai for Q1 and possibly in to Q2 too. [UPDATE May 22 - Don't expect MIG (Made in Germany) MY to be delivered to UK in 2022.]

If you are in Auz/NZ, shipments have so far been made on scheduled services from Shanghai. I will announce the departure of likely vessels on this thread but won't track them.
If you are in Dubai, your Model 3 will be loaded on to a ship that heads to Jebel Ali. Currently there is one shipment per quarter.
If you are in Israel, your car will be shipped to Ashdod and again currently there is one shipment per quarter.
If you are in Ireland your car is now shipped via Zeebrugge.

I mentioned Q1 earlier- this is because Tesla work in quarters with Q1 running from Jan to Mar. The Tesla business model requires as many cars as possible produced in a quarter to be paid for (delivered) in that same quarter.
This means that in Q1 the last ship will leave for Europe no later than around 18 Feb in order to allow for a 4 week transit to Southampton/Zeebrugge and then a (hectic) delivery push in the last 10 days or so of March. (A little later if shipping to Koper) It is logical then to expect to see a large number of export models for the UK/EU market to be clogging the Chinese production lines in January and early February. This explains the feast or famine nature of Tesla logistics. Elon has promised his staff that he will try to suppress the end of quarter wave. To an extent he has already succeeded in this - by moving all export production to China, the US domestic supply is now much more even throughout the quarter. For Europe, had Berlin come online when originally planned, the sombrero would have been flattened by 2022 Q1. Sadly, Berlin is late and so as a result I think the end of quarter push will continue to be a feature in Q1 (and probably Q2). [and Q3!]

You may wonder why we should be interested in shipments to Zeebrugge and Koper? Often it may be difficult to determine whether a ship is heading to Southampton, Zeebrugge or Koper and so it's just as easy to track all the ships to Europe. Often the ship may call at Southampton and then head to Zeebrugge and so it makes sense keep track of everything heading to Europe anyway. It's useful for me if our European readers advise their expected delivery dates and when VINs are allocated as thaty can help identify where a ship is going.

There is an excellent spreadsheet populated with the latest (and historical) confirmed shipping information from a variety of sources - Tesla Carriers. It may be more of interest to you later as you become more engrossed in this subject! Did I mention it can become addictive?

Anyway, I think we can expect to see about 13 boatloads to Europe in Q1. [UPDATE May 22 4 or 5 in Q2, and 15 or 16 in Q3]
That begs the next question - how big are the boats? The standard ocean going vehicle carrier is 200 metres long and 32 metres wide and can fit about 5000 - 5500 cars onboard. A Tesla is larger and significantly heavier than a standard car and so a maximum of about 4500 cars are in each shipment. There are larger vessels that can transport more and I will make a point of mentioning it if a larger vessel is being used.

Anyway the plan is to post details of the latest Tesla shipping news for 2022 to this thread.

I expect at some time, possibly even later this year, Model S/X to resume shipping from the USA. Previously these models had a tortuous delivery route to UK and Europe by container to Tilburg in the Netherlands where they were reassembled for onward distribution.
Quite how they will be shipped when exports to UK/Europe is resumed is unknown but I think it likely that they will be shipped complete on a RoRo possibly from Pier 80 in San Francisco. We shall see...

There are a number of ship trackers you can use to follow the ships and www.marinetraffic.com is one with perhaps the best free coverage but there are plenty of others. The ships transmit a signal which is picked up by shore based receivers (mostly hosted by amateurs) and forwarded to the website. The trouble is that the signal is a VHF signal meaning the receiver has to be within line-of-sight and once the ship goes over the horizon to the receiver that's it, unless you pay for satellite coverage which is not cheap. With the aid of satellite tracking I will provide a daily update on exactly where each 'Tesla' ship is and provide an estimated time of arrival to Zeebrugge and Southampton (the UK port of entry for Tesla). I'll also try and add some background info which you may find interesting.

Correctly identfying Tesla ships from Shanghai is not easy and quite often a 'suspect' ship turns out to be a false alarm. There are other sites that claim to track Tesla ships but actually just track every possible ship that departs Shanghai, which is not particularly helpful. I at least try and rule out the improbable ones based on my experience. It helps enormously if when you 'chat' to Tesla about your order that you ask what ship your car is on or if they won't tell you the name, at least ask when it will arrive in Zeebrugge/Southampton. Please post your info to the thread or PM me!

You can help me and others by keeping any posts on this thread strictly to shipping related matters - questions about when to expect delivery, VINs and panel gaps have their own threads, which I have been known to visit and contribute to also.

I am posting this now because I think I may have in my sights the 1st ship of 2022 .....

Tesla China drone video shows massive fleet ready for Q3 exports

A drone video taken at Luchao Port, about 6 kilometers away from Giga Shanghai, showed a massive fleet of Teslas just waiting to be exported.

Seems to be more m3 production than MY.
