    Tips for driving from Melbourne to Brisbane

    Hey everyone, in the near future I will be relocating from Melbourne to Brisbane and I am currently floating the idea of driving there but I have not done a drive this long in any car let alone an EV so am a bit unsure. Most of my things will be shipped there so I will only be carrying minimal...

    Black pin from charging port broken inside mobile connector

    Yeah, the technician put in a new one. Only took around 20-30minutes all up

    Black pin from charging port broken inside mobile connector

    In case anyone runs into a similar issue, I booked a mobile service in and Tesla replaced the charging port and connector under warranty

    To my untrained ears, the current speaker set up still sounds great. Granted I have limited experience with other systems in similar price brackets but the current speakers are more than adequate for me

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    From memory, this terminology was from the time when there were still plans for an even cheaper Model 3. This Model 3 would have a more stripped out interior including less speakers (potentially software locked) The Model 3 RWD we drive now would have been the next step up from that model with...

    Black pin from charging port broken inside mobile connector

    Due to my living circumstances it wouldn’t be ideal for them to come to me which explains my slight hesitancy. But I will certainly look into booking a service hopefully at the service centre.

    I'm in Melbourne but I managed to get my date moved quite easily. They gave me two days just like you, I asked to be moved to the Saturday a few days later and my request was approved almost immediately.

    Black pin from charging port broken inside mobile connector

    Hi all, As the euphoria of picking up the car dies down, the realities of actually owning it kicks in! When I went to disconnect my mobile charger from my Model 3 today, I noticed that one of the black pins from the port has broken off and is lodged inside the mobile connector (see photos)...

    You're probably looking at Q2 then. As your order is standard everything I doubt there will be any delays beyond that but can never be certain.

    What was the estimated delivery when you placed your order?

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Generic EDDs like those don't tend to mean much from what I've gathered. For what it's worth, my EDD never appeared in my account or app until I got a delivery window (mine was 9/02 - 23/02). So it's possible you won't see a date for a while

    They come as standard

    Unfortunately there's likely something in the order agreement that covers delays

    Picked my RWD today! My wait is over. Everything about it is amazing although I am very scared at how quickly it gains speed. May or may not lose license Can't imagine what the LR or Performance is like

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    For those that have picked up, did they require a driver's licence for proof of address as well or was it just for identification? If it's for proof of address too then I'll have to print out a separate document Thanks

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    The main issue is with constant rewrites. USBs aren't really made to be constantly rewritten over and over again as will happen when it gets full which could lead to potential failure. So if you get a 500GB SSD, it not only likely has better endurance then a generic USB (depending on what brand...

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    It comes with a USB. I believe it's 128GB

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Centre console trays and all weather interior floor mats to start with. Maybe a screen protector for the display as well and a new SSD to replace the USB for Sentry mode/dash cam footage

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I would give it a day or two and if it's still not there contact your SA, they should be able to get it for you. I can't remember whether mined appeared before or after the email

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Order date will appear on your order agreement PDF in your account. EDD will appear on your account too or on the app. The EDD will jump around and/or disappear. From what I've gathered don't be too alarmed if a generic EDD like 8-12 weeks, 5-7 months never appears or changes, it doesn't mean...

    Yes that's normal. Final invoice will come soon after

    Australia Model 3 - Delivery waiting room

    I ordered on 19/11 but keep in mind, it really depends on your car configuration e.g RWD/LR/P, which interior colour, which paint colour etc so mine may have been built earlier because of that Have faith, you will receive yours soon!

    Yup, I was given the dates 16th or 17th but I had to move it to the 19th

    Have you tried calling the general sales phone number? From my experience, they always answer that and try to help

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    Paying now would be way too early. They only require funds to be cleared 48 hours before delivery, so I would one to two weeks before would be reasonable And no I doubt making payment early bumps you up the queue

    As others have said, the final invoice is a PDF that will be uploaded under the "Documents" section

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    You should receive an email saying your final invoice is ready

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I definitely did that as well although from my understanding, what you put in the description shouldn't affect whether the transfer goes through as long as BSB and account number is correct

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    You're not wrong, I was more addressing your comment about playing it safe by paying a week before delivery date and adding my experience that one week before may not be enough if you run into issues (although I may be an outlier)

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    To be fair, I've paid my final invoice over a week ago and my account hasn't reflected that I have yet. I've called Tesla and they're looking into it. The BSB and account number I transferred to is definitely correct so hopefully nothing's gone wrong. So certainly doesn't hurt to do it as early...

    Just got my text to schedule delivery in Melbourne! Was given the dates 16th or 17th which unfortunately won't work for me so hopefully they will let me reschedule

    I wonder how many times vedaprime has said this throughout their Tesla tracking career Maybe this quote needs to be displayed as a banner for everyone to see 😅

    For those that have paid off their final payment, how long did it take to reflect in your account?

    David McCowen says the DBX 707 is the faster SUV in the world, he's wrong....

    Nothing you said is incorrect but they're not technically wrong. A top speed of 310km/h is faster than 262km/h on the Model X Plaid, therefore by pure definition of the word, it is the fastest SUV. However as you've mentioned, it is certainly not the quickest. And that is where I think legally...

    Vedaprime did mention VIN allocation normally takes a few weeks anyway so it's probably not abnormal that you do not have one yet.

    Oh sweet, couldn't find my VIN since I got my EDD even in the source code but using the link above I finally have it! Thanks

    I don't have a final invoice yet either. I'm sure we'll get one eventually, they won't forget to take our money off of us!

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    I didn't have one since ordering until recently when I got a more solid EDD of 9/02 to 23/02. Mine never said 8-12 weeks Meanwhile some people have had 8-12 weeks appear since ordering, then changed to 14-20 weeks then blank or any combination of those. So like mentioned I wouldn't put too...

    This has been discussed in depth here already. Multiple people (including myself) have confirmed with their SA that all deliveries this quarter will have the Ryzen chip. But the only way to know 100% is to probably ask your SA to check with your VIN
  42. B

    Australian Model 3 Waiting Room

    According to Vedaprime they do tend to move around. Happy to be corrected if wrong but I imagine nothing is rock solid until your car is in the delivery centre and you’ve booked your date!

    Just got a text to complete my Victorian registration documents. Although from memory people received this a couple of weeks ago so I probably just got it late meaning this probably doesn't indicate anything.

    Ordered SR 19/11 in Vic, no VIN or EDD either Speaking of insurance, every quote I've gotten is 1700-2500 a year which is quite expensive. I am young (26) though so that might be it

    At the end of the day, whether someone wants to delay or not is their personal decision. Don't think there's a right or wrong decision I personally won't and will take my chances. If it's an atom inside, so be it

    According to Google, their Mulgrave delivery centre operates on a Saturday. If they don't do weekends I guess I'll never pick up my car!

    Model 3 SR+ MY21 delivery wait times in Australia

    Would anyone be able to give any insight in flexibility with Tesla’s delivery dates? Say they give me a delivery date that is on a weekday, would I be able to easily move that to the Saturday? The nature of my job makes picking up on a weekday virtually impossible so will be hoping there is...
