Mine worked great for just over a month and stopped working today. I'm pretty sure it was caused by updating the iPhone app yesterday.

Mine also stopped working today and I updated my app to 4.34.0 yesterday. Now when I go into the app store it looks like they've taken 4.34.0 down and you can download 4.33.5 again. I might try that later.

I got that routinely in the mornings over the winter since it's so dark the side cameras can't see anything. The message goes away as soon as I get into a town with streetlights or as the sun starts to rise.

I'd guess it's a wheel bearing going bad. Luckily they're cheap and easy to replace.

I have hardware 4 and had FSD and auto shift for the last month with no issues during the trial. I won't pay for FSD, so my car came from the 2024.8.x branch rather than 2024.3.x. Auto shift is still working now that the FSD trial is over.

No, it does not require stopping. I'd say when using it after backing out of a parking spot it's not any slower than shifting to drive manually. If you've been driving and want to use it to shift into reverse, it is a bit slower since you have to be below some speed threshold for a certain...

It's really not complicated. Another way to describe it is "do exactly what you would do in your other car, except don't touch the shifter or clutch".

Then how do you explain the Google watermark on the maps in my car?

What works best for me is just a quick tap of the brake pedal while still rolling and then turn the wheel after that. You also have to wait for the chime before hitting the accelerator in the new direction. If you get on the accelerator before the chime, it will cancel the gear change.

To be clear, you just need a quick tap on the brake pedal and then turn the wheel after that, you don't have to hold the brake or brake while turning the wheel. Wait for the chime before pressing the accelerator again. If you hit the accelerator before the chime, it will cancel the change.

Apple Maps is the best I've used in my area. Not only does it show all driveways, it actually navigates me right down my driveway to my garage (not the house or pole barn) and has 3D mapping of all the buildings around and even the tree cover. Google Maps from a couple years back was a close...

You have to tap (or hold) the brakes and then turn the steering wheel quite a bit. Just tapping the brakes and continuing along the same course will not make it shift to the other direction.

That system doesn't show any driveway or speed limit information, at least on the public viewer. Google Maps showed all driveways in the area for at least a decade until last spring, when most of them disappeared. Some addresses still show driveways, but they are the minority now. I don't...

They only had P->D and P->R. Now they can do D->R and R->D, too.

I wouldn't call it garbage, but Google really messed up their mapping data in my area a little over a year ago. They lost almost all driveway location information - Tesla and Android phones think my driveway is on a different road now. I'm pretty sure that's the same time all the speed limit...
