I have this problem in my Shanghai built Model 3 LR. I’m booked for a service centre appointment tomorrow. The sound is a constant whining buzzing electric type sound. It’s hard to pinpoint where it originates from. Can hear it from inside the car and outside.

So QLD slimlines fit onto existing Tesla mounts? How about a covers for them? I don't like the holes that won't be used. I guess they can be filled in.

I’ll try later but the sound is EXACTLY as per the short video in this article which led me to this thread. https://teslanorth.com/2022/09/17/tesla-to-fix-high-pitched-buzzing-in-model-s-x-with-2022-36-1-update/ First I thought it was coming from the dash. Then I thought it was coming from the...

Model 3 Long Range. I’m pretty sure it does exist as I just took delivery of it and my bank account is much lighter for it.

Took delivery of M3LR yesterday. No whining noise. Updated software. Now continuous noise when parked. Only goes away when car is in sleep mode. Can’t bear to stay in the car and even Netflix doesn’t drown out the noise😔

To all those waiting, I can confirm that the car is worth the wait 🫢🤪

Ordered in March. Delivery day tomorrow. I hope it’s worth the wait. Will let you all know tomorrow.

“EVs are bad” Translation: “I’m broke”

Many Tesla owners in this area. Many apartments in this area. I'm guessing that these chargers will get very good usage. More will be needed.

Agreed. Lets to scummy scalpers suffer. Remember that our wait times have been increased partly due to these scalpers. I would never buy of one. Might offer them $50k for one after getting them all excited first though😂

I was sitting here when the YR became available and thought about pulling the trigger. However I was in the queue to pay $78800 for a M3LR and the price at the time of this spec had moved up to over $90k. So by switching to a MY I would have given up $12k in equity in the M3 LR to switch to a...

:) Was of the coast of PNG this time yesterday. https://tesla-updates.github.io/

My bad. I meant Paganella (not Paglia) due in Brisbane on 03 Sep. I got the info from this UK shipping thread “PAGANELLA Is bound for Brisbane (03 Sep), Port Kembla (09 Sep) and Melbourne (13 Sep) and I expect her drop Teslas off at each port.”...

Paglia is due to arrive in Brisbane on 03 Sep before moving onto NSW then VIC Morning Cherry due to arrive in Port Kembla on 09 Sep. At least I think the above is correct.

I’m considering flames

Why do people trying to hoonify their Tesla's with different badges and wheels? Is it because Commodores are no longer available?🤷‍♂️

Meeting in a Hungry Jacks car park!!! 🤣Like you’re meeting your dealer to buy some weed. Congrats all the same. Enjoy your car…and your weed!

Same build date for me. Morning Cherry ETA 05 Sep in Brisbane.

Very few LRs. I think these will end up becoming even more in demand at the expense of the base model.

Polestar is Volvo in disguise. I'll only consider buying one when I'm the other side of 65.

5 September for Queenslanders? https://www.shiplocation.com/vessels/MORNING-CHERRY/CURRENT-POSITION/9675585

Hey what happened to all of the happy people? All I'm seeing mostly are frustrated people in the queue as well as a couple of Tesla haters.

Silly question. But I’m assuming my Tesla will come with standard plates and as so as I find the registration number I order replacement plates through the Department of Transport (QLD) if I want fancier looking ones? Veda Prime just tweeted that the Paglia just arrived at Port Kembla so looks...

Does anybody know how to check when the car has arrived in Australia just so I can get a heads up? Do I check RAV daily? (VIN not bringing anything up yet) Or do I do ship tracking? For those expecting cars (east coast) within the next couple of weeks, which ship do you think we're on? Or do...

Thanks for the good wishes all. Does anybody know if I can pinpoint the car location? I’m assuming that the ship has docked If I’m getting an EDD beginning yesterday. My location Brisbane

I’m in a panic. Original EDD was 20-30 Sep. Then it was brought forward to 3-14 Sep. Now I’ve just checked and the app says Aug 25- 7 Sep!!!! My garage isn’t painted and old car not sold. Insurance not sorted. When do I get my rego number? I need to get money together and pay Tesla. Panic...

I’m waiting for a LR and was reading about the new LFP batteries going into RWDs which can therefore be charged to 100%. Does this mean that the LRs no longer have a range advantage as they’re not recommended to be charged beyond 90%?

Great point. Currently I have car mats. Is there anything that is critical? How about tinting and paint protection? I guess that’s booked once a pickup date is scheduled?

Had a dream the other night that upon inspecting the car on delivery day I noticed 4k on the odometer and was forced to accept delivery or wait a year for another. Obviously this won’t happen but I am still going to be extra careful on delivery day. I think I need to build an A-Z checklist

Elon Musk just tweeted that he’s looking to buy Manchester United.🤮 Might have to cancel my Model 3 order.

Just wondering what tint you all are going for? Limo blockout ?:p I’m looking for a reputable company in Brisbane.

How do I go about tracking my car for which I now have a vin, build date (12 August) , invoice and early-mid September delivery range? Just want to do some financial planning. Thanks

Just checked out Facebook marketplace. People trying to sell their position in the order book. I hope these scummy people get stuck with an order that they can’t afford to pay for.

Strange. I’ve my invoice and VIN. Maybe your VIN is just being held up with admin

EDD now brought forward by around 2 weeks to 03-17 Sep

App updated with estimated delivery overnight. So full details just incase it helps: Order: 01 March Vehicle: M3 LR Location: Brisbane Vin through chrome extension: 12 Aug Invoice: None yet Estimated delivery: 20Sep-30Sep Anybody here with the same delivery estimate? I’m surprised the car is...

Order 01 March LR Just received an email stating “Your invoice is now available in your Tesla Account.” Excitedly logged in and no sign of an invoice. No delivery date either. Still reads Aug-Oct but they’re now asking me for payment No idea what’s going on

My LR is 01/03 and EDD is Aug to Oct. So I think (pray 🙏).they’re planning on clearing lots of LRs before RWDs😂

01 MARCH OD. VIN Allocated!!!! Just practicing my post for 6 months time.

Looks like VIN season is over. Discussion has moved onto trunks and frunks

Somebody mentioned 23 Feb. My 01 March order is for LR/East coast. Estimated delivery Aug - Oct But got a feeling that LRs and Ps will be pushed back to allow Standard ranges to be produced.

My OD is 01 March and no vin. So only 6 days behind this most recent order that has had a VIN. My bad luck will probably mean March 2022 will be the new November 2021. Delivery before XMAS would be nice

Me EVERY morning checking for a VIN

The mystery deepens. Maybe Indooroopilly has returned the Tesla chargers as now it looks like Evie has done a deal https://thedriven.io/2022/06/21/amp-strikes-deal-with-evie-for-charging-stations-at-16-major-shopping-centres/

What? How? I also ordered a LR in the first week of March ( 01 March). My delivery is scheduled for Aug- Oct

Was there today. Chargers had disappeared. Anyway I’ll never use one as I’ve a feeling that with the number of EVs coming that public charging will be a PITA especially in shopping malls.

I’m having solar installed and they need to add a sub switchboard in the garage to connect the invertor (as current switchboard is full). After agreeing on the quote, I asked them about whether they could wire up a wall charger. They said that as they will be there anyway, it will only take...

Shanghai goes into Covid lockdown. Prepare to add 6 months to wait times.
