Basic AP does not not change lanes for you.

Went by tonight, no real progress.

I’d like the left scroll wheel long press alternative function to be latching or “sticky”. I have it set to wiper speed and when I long press the scroll wheel to allow for the scroll wheel to adjust the wiper speed I’d like it to stay in that mode until I long press again. This way I can...

I don’t know of a service mode setting for this, though I don’t doubt that there might be one. A low tech solution may be to just put something heavy in the drivers seat to trick it.

The chill mode explanation makes a lot of sense. Is it possible that you are only changing the car mode while you are in park? There is a default “easy access” profile, if this is enabled and you are changing the drive mode before you are shifting the car into drive you could be only changing...

This is great information, thanks for putting this together!

In the app under Schedule check that you do not have preconditioning set to on. That will cause your car to prepare itself at that time each day and warm up the cabin as well.

It’s the second I believe and there are more still yet. Tesla Autopilot not responsible for 2019 fatal crash, jury says
