Looks like this is the 9.0 in Australia thread… Does anybody on 9.0 in Australia have music controls showing on their iOS app?

Thanks. I can see on that page "Contact the InsureMyTesla Customer Service team on 1300 393 041 or [email protected] for an InsureMyTesla insurance quote today." but cannot see a link to an online engine. Am I missing something?

We are taking delivery of our X on Wednesday, as a companion to our S. The issue is insurance: IAG (NRMA etc) does not have the X on their systems yet, but may by Wednesday. Tesla are offering a product via QBE, but you cannot buy this online an the hold times are long. What are others doing...

We know our X has been here for a couple of weeks but Tesla Delivery are not responding to our emails. :(

Got mine yesterday, given our order.

Make sense. The X ends up being very price. My understanding is that you can get the deposit back, no questions asked. Yes. Happy to send you a referral code if you PM me.

I think you will need to wait until the Model X is actually close to delivery. IAG (NRMA) offered Model S insurance fairly early.

Midpoint 90D with 7 seats.

I am now that it is configured! Do you think the X teething issues will delay it?

I received an email this morning that we can now configure our Model X for delivery by late 2016 (18 months after reservation). NSW on-road cash price ranges from A$147,137 for a 75D with no options to A$280,509 for a ludicrous P90D with every option.

I noticed it too but you beat me, LGGD! It is owned by the Laws' rich neighbours.

I'm using my Premium Spotify on my Tesla (called "Nikola"). My wife's taken it out and I notice Spotify on my Mac knows the account is being used in the car calls the device "Tesla Nikola"

I'm not sure the interface for Spotify works quite the way I would expect. If you have other screens up (e.g. Navigation) and do a voice search for Spotify, a pop-up window appears listing matches (artists, albums, songs and playlists). If you tap on one of these, nothing happens! You have to...

I emailed ServiceHelpAU and asked if they would share with me by Tesla Spotify login details. I was hoping to login using my computer to add playlists. The reply was "Unfortunately this is not possible." Of course, I do have my own premium Spotify account and will use that.

Comparing LGGD's screenshot of the update notes with those from the US, it sadly looks like you're right :(

Welcome Spotify to Your Model S With today’s over-the-air software update, you can now enjoy a seamless streaming music experience with Spotify in your Model S. The fully integrated Spotify system will deliver the perfect music experience for every journey with on-demand access to Spotify’s...

It has come through.

No joy yet in Sydney with an 85 with autopilot hardware. Just took her for a drive, because we don't get a good 3G or WiFi signal in the garage, but no notification yet.

Elon has just tweeted

LGGD, it may be you are the only one in Australia to have been updated so far.

So, who is going to be first in Australia with 7.0?

There are signs up now at The Star next to the superchargers that there is a time limit of one hour and than any additional time will be charged at casual rates. I'm not sure how they will enforce that: while they track when you come and go over the intercom, how would one pay? If they do...

My car had a "12V battery needs servicing" warning this evening. So, I called the Roadside Assistance number, which is supposed to be 24 hours 365 days per year. The recorded message (in an American voice) said the hours of service are 9 to 6 Monday to Friday. I tried both the 1 800 toll free...

How have you found the dashcam/s re-downloading data for review etc. Haven't tended to download it as it is there in case one needs it and haven't need it. Have they picked up any incidents of note? Not really. I don't feel I have the sensitivity settings quite right. What are others'...

I received mine too. It's an A$1,500 discount, which is not bad, given that Tesla don't usually discount. My link is <SNIP>. Feel free to use it, if you've been thinking of buying a Model S. I get a similar credit. Here's the full text. -- Word of mouth has always been a major part of how...

My v6.2 (2.4.238) installed overnight on my 85.

My RN 576 (Sydney) finally started working last week. Then, that night, the .188 firmware downloaded and now RN Sydney is missing from TuneIn. RN Melbourne is still there... meloccom, where is RN 576 showing up for you in TuneIn? I've looked under Local Radio, ABC etc and I can no longer see it…

What did they charge?

I am installing mine this weekend so this is great to know. I put my tolling tag on the left-hand side and so I hope that I can put the camera on the right-hand side. I can't recall whether the camera allows you to invert the image... Was the Teslarati guide helpful? What did you need to adjust...

Spotted on Rushcutters Road in Sydney's East on a wet, wet morning. (Why does the forum rotate the image?)

I'd love to be able to listen to high quality Australian Broadcasting Corporation radio in my Tesla. The AM radio reception is surprisingly poor--I guess that's what happens with inbuilt aerials. I expected a digital radio but am I right in saying that only the FM band is digital in the Tesla...

Collected my S today! The X may be a bit more of a wait… How long until I am "Spotted"?

Nikola

I got a prompt, helpful response from Tesla: I already made a feature request, and forwarded it to the development department. We hope they will be taking care of this very soon.

Ditto. Should we do a change.org petition?

I think the lack of browser (even while parked) is something we should collectively take on. Has anybody officially asked Tesla Australia?

No, the Tesla does not support CarPlay but that's probably OK even for someone like me who didn't buy the Genesis because it lacked it. CarPlay is just a simplified front-end for the iPhone that appears on car screens providing access to standard apps like Phone, Messages, Music, Maps etc. The...

Great video. I almost bought a Genesis before I realised Tesla was coming to Australia. Fortunately, the Genesis didn't offer CarPlay and so I decided not to get one. Nice car and good value but the Tesla is more exciting.

As you will have read elsewhere, Tesla announced firmware 6.2 overnight. The features are listed in detail at http://www.teslamotors.com/en_AU/presskit. So what will make it to Australia and what won't? Energy and Range Trip Planner: I think YESAutomatic routing along Tesla’s Charging...

My wife and I also got NSW tech plates. Mine are awaiting Tesla to collect them when the car is registered. Hers were delivered direct and are on her non-Tesla car. (Is this a "Tesless" or a "legacy vehicle"?) She bought a frame from Supercheap auto which works well. I guess I wlil buy the...

Do Tesla deliver cars with frames on the rego plates in NSW?

Our Model S is on a boat but we've "reserved" a Model X for the tune of A$6,000. The confirmation showed it was "Australia #57".

It turns out my vehicle was not on a ship. The ship spent a couple of weeks sitting off the coast of Long Beach but is now on its way to Sydney (via Auckland and Melbourne). The ship is the CAP CAPRICORN. For others with vehicles on this boat, see: http://www.vesselfinder.com/?imo=9649835 Due...

Seen by a mate of mine in Walsh Bay, Sydney. Is this two-tone car the first Model S in AU (defaced) with corporate branding? Interesting highlights on the headlights, though…

Interesting. How does one work out which ship your car might be on?

Well, after a few weeks of showing "Late March" it now says "Late April". The website may have said "in transit" but maybe it is still not on a ship. Mind you, I received my wall connector this week.

Spotted a Silver Model S on William Street, East Sydney this morning. It is my first "in the wild" sighting on a route where I will be driving mine in a few weeks' time. I have been looking everywhere for them on the road, and noticed this car and thought "Gee, what a good looking car. Wonder...

Please feel free to add mine to the spreadsheet. 85, Blue, 19" Wheels Standard, Pano, Grey Nappa, Obeche Wood Matte, Tech Package. Sydney, NSW Obscured VIN of 5YKxxx Order Confirmed 21 December 2014 In Transit 26 January 2015

Michael (doctorwho), is that a dual?

My 85 kWh (non-D) Model S with order accepted 21/12/2014 is now marked on my.teslamotors.com as "Production Complete" and "Your Model S is in transit from the factory." The "Estimated Delivery" is marked on the website as "Late March" with the standard proviso: "This time frame is only an...
