... It's coming... 4am tomorrow..

Yup that one... From your response I'm guessing you don't like cruise control because there's no ship and no all you can eat buffet, or auto-start stop is bad because I still have to use my brakes... I'm sure SA will ban it for years too... Remember we still have petrol pump attendants!?!

Full self driving... Come on read the thread!

Yup definitely. Holding out from replacing my current car!

It's the parts importing, software etc... Backyard isn't the issue... Backend is!

Completely agree. Paying full whack for a Tesla with no support would be silly.. Thus the thread! How do we get a dealership equivalent started in SA... It never happens until it does.

When they make them at Rosslyn, they would not then need to pay import duties... Why do you think they would? Is it someone pulling the wool over your eyes on taxes/prices?

Huh? What does that even mean? Oh right... Yes the import tariffs dont actually help anyone, because it just means all manufacturers charge as if they are imported even when they aren't! This is the same for imported vehicles. They aren't priced based on the cost of the materials and imports...

Assemble here... Tesla are good are setting up factories... Wonder if they are good working with SA Labour though!

Maybe they can build them here...!!

It's all done. Initially they thought it was fine (but a leaking brake master), but days later same problem (clutch pedal to floor no resistance). They have now replaced the whole lot... I think slave, flywheel... And a seal. So... R28, 000 later (R10k brake master and R18k clutch) .. Hmmmph...

Some are radio, some are power line comms (aka Plc). The majority of old ones just have the keypad etc on the meter itself. https://conlog.com/our-offer/ Just remember all that radio/comms does is talk to the consumer panel - - I. E. To tell you the units left and type in a code... The...

So when are we doing this thing Elon! https://mybroadband.co.za/news/motoring/563361-impact-of-tesla-launching-in-south-africa.html

If it feels like one thing is bad, probably is... If you feel everything is bad sounds like it's you. Low blood sugar maybe?

So... Long story short. Bad idea leaving it, broken again shortly after, and will see what the total bill comes to now! West Coast seem very honest but they could be a tad more cautious! Last weekend clutch faded again and did eventually come up and faded again on the way home. Managed...

Anyone?

Quick one... Been asked before and on other threads... Good supplier of CO2 I Cape Town? One that won't get a bit alarmed if you say you're drinking it?

Have you... The sugar in grapetizer is an eye opener!

How much are you guys paying for these meters?

I just took it to West Coast Clutch because of the recommendations above :) and for the clutch they are bang on I. E. Saying "it's not too bad you can leave it" when any other mechanic would say "umm, better change it" Now I need to do the same things for brakes :)
