Great review and I will definitely be recommending this to new owners that ask for help as it's a great intro. One thing with charging you may not be aware of: If using the Tesla UMC or Tesla Charger - just press the button on the type 2 plug in front of your charge port when the car is unlocked and it will open it for you automagically. Same goes for release - make sure the car is unlocked first and then press the button to unlock the charge port and pull it out.

Enjoyed an Aussie perspective on the 3. I have only watched Andy from the states who is going to keep his Model 3 for 10 years and has covered 160,000kms in 4 yrs so far on a 2018 model. I am interested in purchasing the SR in the blue. Great informative video you have done here, congratulations 🥳

@teslahirewa90 2 жыл бұрын

Hey Andrew, thanks for the feedback. Pricing varies not only from state to state, but Tesla also increases and decreases the price as they see fit (possibly linked to demand?). Since I purchased mine, there has been at least 1 price cut, so they're definitely cheaper now than when I bought mine, but I don't have any regrets at all and LOVE the car. Even after 12 months, I still find excuses to go for a drive because it's just so enjoyable to drive. Best to just head to tesla.com and select the state you are in and the specs you want and it'll show you the final price, including a breakdown of the stamp duties and fees etc.

Quick question, if a car is charged to 90% and then sat for a week with no charging, would the batteries decrease charge at all? I work FIFO so was wondering if it was parked in long term parking (1 or 2 weeks), would the charge decrease too much that I couldnt drive home? Thanks

@teslahirewa90 2 жыл бұрын

Great question! If you leave Sentry Mode active, it will drain the battery a couple of % each day, but even after a couple of weeks it should be fine. If you turn Sentry Mode off the battery drain will be very minimal. Hope you're excited for your time with the car - see you in the morning!

It's not necessary for standard charging at home or for destination chargers, however if heading to a Supercharger, it's best to use the in-car navigation to direct you there because that will also trigger the car to start preconditioning the battery so it's at optimum temperature when you arrive so it can charge as efficiently as possible.

Also: Open glove box, open butthole will open charge door, stop navigation, navigate to whereever So just try whatever you want. Chances are it will respond favorably.

Voice commands are underrated and you can do more than what's on the official list, including activating demisters.

doesn't the 2021 come with the wood trim on the door?

@teslahirewa90 2 жыл бұрын

The 2021 that is made in China does, but mine was in the final batch of 2021 that came from the USA, which also happened to be the first batch of the 2021 update with chrome delete, wireless phone charging and heat pump etc.

Are you able to lock the door to the charger to keep out those who should not have access?

@teslahirewa90 2 жыл бұрын

The charger door locks when a charger is plugged in so people can't remove it.

That's awesome! I hope you used a referral code to get 1500km's of free Supercharging. If not, get in touch to ask them to add it to your order and they're usually pretty accommodating. Here's my code in case you want it 😉 www.tesla.com/referral/david89705

One guy told me to never charge your Tesla over 80%. Keeping it charged between 80% and 20% is best for long-term battery reliability. Does anybody know if this is true?

@teslahirewa90 2 жыл бұрын

It varies. The latest version has different battery makeup and is recommended to charge to 100%, whereas mine is supposed to be charged to 80-90%.

Yeah, I find the vegan leather seats really nice and not plasticy at all. I could take or leave the wood, but haven't been bothered to do anything about it.
