The situation. Divided highway. No gradual exit to the U turn. US 19/98 crystal river Florida.

It's been over a month now and nearing a month and a half. I changed my mind about paying for one more month. I don't feel I've given it enough time. But a month at a time and at $99 worth continuing the experiment. So I did continue. The software has been updated twice. I'll try to summarize...

I agree with your sentiment. I've never had such pain in any car I've ever owned since 1966!!!! And never have I been in so much pain while riding in anyone else's vehicle. But I've already made my Tesla M3P to my liking, so in my case I'm keeping it.

Totally agree!

An update after a week of driving FSD "Supervised" 30 day demo V 12.3.3: It's overall horrible here in my town in rural Florida. Perhaps I have more situations that FSD cannot handle than others who only praise FSD. While I'm amazed at traffic complexity it does handle, I will not drive with FSD...

I am running the 30 day trial version. I believe they are all the same release, 12.3.3. My car is on Version V11.1(2024.3.10). This is running on a 2022 Model 3 Performance.

In my car, 22 Model 3 Performance, it is very nerve racking. I have FSD in chill, makes no difference. It races way too quickly and gets to a top speed so fast that it burned rubber once. I'm wondering if FSD isn't calibrated for such a fast car. Sometimes it accelerates to the max only to slam...

I had no software or version discrepancies. Maybe you should reboot your car. But I had some similar failings of my FSD: “All FSD would do was to stay in whatever lane I was in at a stop and then go straight.” That's what FSD does to me when it should follow navigation and take the U turn. It...

Yes I got Autopark along with FSD 30 day trial. Just put it into reverse and get near a parking spot and stop. The screen should bring up a special menu for autopark. Select go or activate or whatever. It works quite well.

I agree

I had to go to the car's control screen, the Autopilot, then scroll down. I found Summon new there and it was switched off. I switched it on and then immediately could use Summon.

Did you scroll down? Once you open Autopilot menus, that's where FSD is. Then scroll down until you see summons beta. you have to turn it on.

I rebuild Tesla seats, I've done it for myself and helped a few others. I've not seen the 24 but via videos I learned they completely redesigned the seats for 24. I believe they tried to make them more "snug". My guess is that they made the previous problems worse. That's terrible. I have no...

Now you have to go into the car. Open the Controls screen by tapping the little car icon in the bottom left. Then go to "Autopilot" and check all the settings. You have to separately approve Summons.

I think you have to go into your screen to approve Summons and such. Go to controls, Autopilot, and look for submenus. Read them all and set appropriately. It all should work after that if you are in "safe" conditions to do so. Summons would not work for me until I did that. But afterwards it...

I finally got Summon working. This is under the free 30 day trial period of "Supervised FSD". I didn't realize that I had to go into the screen, controls, autopilot, summon, to accept and set settings specifically for summon. Apparently Tesla treats it as entirely different risk than FSD. I...

I'm finding this to be very true and annoying. It does it even when not necessary at all. "The car is pretty lead foot on take off."

My first and second drives on Tesla FSD free 30 day trial Dated 31 March 2024 Updated 1 April 2024 Summary in two days of local in town driving. FSD is too aggressive for my taste and for this locale, even when set to chill mode. It's too fast tromping on the accelerator in many situations...

Mine did the same thing, then disabled the function.

I just tried summons but it appears to be there when i press summons in the app. It looks like it tried to run. It said it was waiting for better accuracy, with the statement "Waiting for accuracy.." Then the message: "summon is disabled" It appears it is trying to work, but cannot for some...

Summon showed up in my app. I did an app update prior to the FSD update, maybe that made a difference. 2022 Model 3 Performance

Try updating the app. I updated my app a couple days prior to the free FSD update. When the software updated, the Summons appeared on my app, magically. "Summon" is located on the app just below "Location" and just above "Schedule". 2022 Model 3 Performance

Also, make sure you have the latest version of the app. For Android, go to Google Play Store, manage apps, update. I updated my app a few days prior to the free FSD implementation and when I got FSD, Smart Summon just magically showed up on the app.

I got the free FSD trial! Late last night I was notified of a software update. I updated the car's software to 2024.3.10 following the download. Then I got an email from Tesla saying that it had granted me FSD for 30 days trial. It also added Summon to my phone's app. Wow! I'm excited to give...

Basic Autopilot is great. It came free with most cars. I thought it came free with all cars???? Enhanced Autopilot is now $6K, which is ridiculous. FSD is now $12K which is also very pricey. Are you certain you don't have basic autopilot. Go to the car screen, you have to turn it on.

Wow, free upgrade? As far as I've read, if you have HW3, you'll be eligible for FSD trial.

You could use another material other than a hacksaw blade, but they are cheap, are the perfect size, they break easily into smaller length pieces that you might want to use. Why not use hacksaw blades? But any other material about the same thickness, such as plastic, etc. I wouldn't use paper or...

How do you check?

It's definitely tricky. Only shim where the gap is large between the rubber surround and the glass. If you shim places where the glass is already tight, it will make even more gaps elsewhere. Have you tried tightening the window and or the door? The corner is quite difficult. Some cases might...

I agree. But I find I'm too wide or broad shoulder in my body design. I had to flatten the seat upper by adding foam. And I now sit too high in the seat bottom, so I modified the lumbar with another foam piece. But I agree that the headrest is critical. For many of us it's way off, pushing our...

I use "super adhesive weather stripping". It's a black "glue" meant for this purpose.

My guess is that shimming would be best for the top edge and the u channel best for the B pillar. But the U channel effectively shims, so I think you could U channel the entire window as called for.

That's cool. It effectively does the same thing as shimming plus a bit. Where did you buy that? Thanks for the input.

I did something quite similar. I added two pieces of dense foam. I used a thicker foam than what appears in the picture. I added another piece for lumbar support. But I first moved the stock OEM lumbar support out of the way behind the plastic instead of in front. But I also bent the headrest...

Road noise in my '22 Model 3 P. Update: 9 March 2024 I'm done with the improvements and fairly pleased with the results, even after very long road trips. So here's my wrap up report, so to speak. This past weekend, I just drove the car 24 hours total driving time, road trip. This was after all...

Solutions to: Long trip seat pains, back pain, hip pain, lower back issues, in my '22 Tesla Model 3 P I have already written about the Tesla seats and commented many times. I have completely redesigned and rebuilt my own Tesla Model 3 seats, both the lower and upper. I've read books on back...

Years ago I had a Datsun 280Z. I installed aftermarket wheels. The car would vibrate at high speeds. I tried every balance shop, nothing worked. Finally I found a place that had a machine to balance the wheels while on the car. It was a superb balance and it solved the vibration completely! I...

Yes, I tested reversing the headrest. I am too tall with a tall upper torso and 6'1" overall height. My hat size is XL. The headrest pushes my head too far forward. Reversing is a good test, but it is too far backwards. I pulled the headrest out and bent the two metal rods/pipes, then...

This is an interesting post. I have a 2022 M 3 P. I have a 2022 Model 3 Performance. It has stock OEM Pirelli P Zero Summer Performance Tires Size: 235/35R20. I have about 18,000 miles now. So not far down the road, I'm due for new tires. The road noise bothers me. It's a big deal to me...

The foam goes BEHIND the stock foam. The heaters are in front and are integrated into the faux leather. So there's no impact whatsoever. As far as melt, the foam is on the other side of the stock foam. There's no heat there. The foam doesn't need to be secured. It gets compressed between the...

Do you mean that the brand and model of the tire more quiet than other tire brands? Did you change from a larger wheel size at the same time? Can you be more specific? It's going to be a rather significant decision for me with wheels and tires. Thank you!

I haven't made a final sound reduction conclusion yet is because I've eliminated virtually all the noise I possibly could. But now there's only a noise/vibration in the entire car that I can't seem to be able to do anything about and I've tried just about everything. The vibration is very small...

I pulled the back panel off and inserted a narrow piece of foam from the highest point to the lumbar support. It works really well and isn't difficult to do. There are good videos out there on how to pull the headrests and remove the back panel.

Are you certain that the 255/35 size will fit properly? I'm also considering the Hancook Ion AS. I wonder if they would be similarly narrow?

I'm assuming the question is directed for me? I've made many YouTube Videos, mostly about wind noises. You can search for my channel using my full name. I have not made a comprehensive sound reduction video yet, sorry. The reason that I haven't made a final sound reduction video yet is because...

Did you change only the front side windows from single to double glass?

If you purchased the entire seat, including the metal frame, you should be able to unplug the stock seat and replace the entire seat assembly. I'm assuming the new seat comes with everything. If you just bought the cushions, you can swap. However the top cushion includes the side impact...
