Just following up on my original post. So it is not that the updates have limited my SC rate. It is actually the supercharger itself. I am at Broadway today and I’m getting over 100 kW charge rate. I suspect the Macquarie SC is limited from its own internal configuration. No update has affected...

Yeah not so good by the looks of what you guys are all saying. I used to get 100 kW+ charges on 30% at the SC. Now only max 85 kW even though no one is next to me. Lifetime SC? what a joke. I guess that update was designed to save them from future battery claims. I only have 40,000 km on a 2015...

I never saw those dotted lines before until recently as I have kept my vehicle underground in my apartment for most of the time. I hope I can get 100 kW+ SCs again. Damn that would suck.

So I am now on around 45,000 km, haven't supercharged quite often because of COVID-19 restrictions and St Leonards Supercharger in NSW closure earlier this year I stopped supercharging often. During that time if I needed a charge I would charge from my 3 phase connection at home or leave it in...

Here are pics from a few minutes ago. Still similar to the above, however I noticed they were running new overhead/ceiling mounted power lines / conduits near the entrance of the car park towards the supercharging units. I give it around two more weeks.

Just followed this and got covered 2015 P90DL with comminsure. agreed value 120k, excess 1700 but they imposed additional excess of extra 400 if I make a claim, not sure why. Maybe because of my age, I've had no accidents 10+ years or claims, or loss of license etc. I was with Shannons the...

Saw on Monday, people were still charging there.

4 days to go before the closure of the St Leonards charging station. Still no sign of hope that there would be a location ready by June. Those HC Tesla drivers going to be happy being slugged additional $7 for re-entry to broadway superchargers. You can only enter the shopping center once per 24...

They need to be more than aggressive if I am going to continue to be cheap to supercharge for free on my MS. I am so cheap I don't charge at home even though I have a solar array. That's how cheap I am. The fact that I can't make that right turn well, you guys probably know this bloke is Asian...

So no clue where the next SC in the lower north shore is. Hate going to Broadway to supercharge only because it’s so damn hard to make that right turn out through true ticket boom gate. If I don’t make a 1-3 pt turn going out I always scrape my front left rims without fail. However, saw a...

Thanks for your help Dborn. Awesome tips and information mate!

Thanks Dborn! You guys are extremely helpful! I will be going for this exact process of removing bumper and headlight. My only question is, I thought the bulb was already a D3S bulb so I was wondering why do we have to modify the skirt? Shouldn't a D3S bulb fit in another D3S housing? Again...

I'll definitely consider that but maybe a bit later when the wife's rage dies down after recently purchasing this ex-demo from Tesla. I did see these Evtuning headlight mods but they charge around 2000 USD for the modification. I feel I'll try the upgrade ballast method and upgrade bulb method...

Thanks Michael for your tips! I don't think these lights will get any brighter as I have read in this thread that the bulbs and ballasts are @ 25w.Since switching over to Tesla from my BMW M3, I feel like I'm driving in the dark. So looks like it's going to be a straight bumper removal similar...

Just wondering, I have a 2015 Model S P90D and I am finding my HID headlight bulbs are less bright than my other vehicles such as M3 and previous Merc AMG headlight bi-xenons. Has anyone opened a 2015 Model S P90D headlight and changed their D3S bulbs? Do you have to change the ballast too...

Thanks Paul for your hospitality and help. I was able to secure finance from Shannons for $2800 covering up to $124,000. low excess of 1200. Awesome!

I just put a deposit for a 2015 Model S P90D Tesla Used Inventory and I can't seem to get a quote at all for my vehicle or that I can't get a quote under $5000. What the heck is happening here. I had BMW M3's and Merc AMG's >160k in value but no where >$3000 in premiums. Hopefully, someone can...
