Worth installing 14.8 or waiting for 14.9? I see others indicate .9 is bug fixes, so maybe just wait u til it decides to offer 14.9? Thoughts?

New here - I notice ACT is not listed, is that because it’s included in NSW? Would be I interesting to see ACT stats on their own.

Just checked on 14.3 on MY (Oct23 build) and they are not there. Could it be a Highland thing? Will probably update to 14.8 tonight.

I never had that… am only in 14.3 now with update to 14.8 ready to go tonight. Not sure why anyone would want the PWS sound inside… glad I never had it.

My hunch is the problem is your home wifi router having some filter/rules blocking half of the update conversation. That would explain your situation. I had similar and it turned out to be the parental filtering (Circle) on my netgear router. Turned that off and all was fine. I’ll hazard a...

Boombox only works while parked… and the sound is pretty tinny. I tried it with a Hellcat idling which sounded beautiful on the interior speakers, but through PWS just sounds tinny and try-hard. Also, the true PWS “UFO sound” only works in reverse and not forward at low speed like some Euro...

Doesn’t that lock the frunk? That may prevent them from doing the work properly? I had PPF and Ceramic done and had to leave it all as normal so they could access everything. All I could do was speed limit… but as my guys had a couple of Porsche GT3 Competition spec cars doing the same, they...

I think this is the big problem with the FUD about EVs - people who saw one once, or heard someone say something, making definitive pronouncements. A bit like the NSW FRS statements you called out recently @Vostok - totally ill informed. Agree- the smart controllers won’t be smart enough and...

Actually there is something wrong with that! It can be illegal to record/monitor people in their workplace unless it is a proper authorised and controlled system with consideration in the employment contract. That’s why I have seen a number of traditional car dealership with signs up telling you...

That’s weird! I’ve had PWS on MY since I got in Nov23 (2023.32 something) and now on 2024.14.3 and have never had PWS sound inside the car (why would you want that?). Sure I can hear it, but always coming from outside the car. Wondering if that may have been a glitch on your car that the update...

I have to say my experience is very different. If anything I think it is a little too quick to block out- certainly earlier than I would if doing it manually. I LOVE how it is able to deal with multiple cars spaced apart, lighting the verges AND the gaps between cars. If there is too much...

I must say I didn’t think this until I got my Model Y… the position of the A pillar and the angle have created several instances where at an intersection I crossed out almost into another car, as they were right behind the A pillar. It is worse than any car I have had- unfortunately something I...

Ditto… although sometimes it shows a left indicator when the car is actually indicating right! 🤪

I agree. For any new/unknown socket with a UMC 10 amp tail I always start there (even without extension cable). Safest way to be sure it’s all good. After confirming for a good charge I’lll then ramp it up to 10.

That is a must! Should never use an extension lead coiled anyway, let alone with a constant high draw. The EM will create heat and cause other problems

Like I found at a place I was staying… the socket had corroded and was arcing to the pins of my UMC inside the socket! Turns out the socket hadn’t been used in about 10 years and the house was by the sea… so plenty of salt corrosion. Found another socket that was more regularly used and after...

I noticed a couple of mentions of others on 14.3 that regen braking had improved (ie become slightly more aggressive, in a smooth way). Initially I didn’t see any change, but in the last few days I would say regen has been worse (not aggressive enough) on many occasions. Approaching same...

While I would love to debate a “universal humanist principle”, and its place in the values of all people on earth… as others have shared we are way off topic now… and I respect the right for each of us to have our own views on that matter. I would love to see Tesla still progressing the...

There is only what YOU BELIEVE is right and wrong - each person can have very different view. Don’t think anyone said it should be - but unless you were an actual employee impacted how do you know if your statement is true? Many others companies treat their staff poorly - just not so openly...

So we can destroy another one?

Yes I can! but as an employee in those circumstances I am unable to provide details (because I actually respect the confidentiality clauses in my employment contracts). Just take a look in the IT press over the last few years

So clearly Microsoft, IBM, SAP, Cisco... and many, many others are not competent businesses? That is exactly the model they have deployed many, many times with layoffs. Sure, they don't have an egotistical CEO that blasts it out on social media first... but the underlying process (and results)...

The fact that Tesla Australia had no idea and no information on what happened either! Having worked for US tech companies for decades, that’s how it rolls. If everyone knew what was happening beforehand it would be leaked and that would cause worse labour and financial problems. I don’t like...

I never had an alert on that before, but the other night on this new update got my first one saying left was unavailable. Same stretch of road as normal with same street lights. Will keep an eye on it to see if one off or a pattern.

I’d stick with the UMC on 10 Amp circuit. That’s what I do and has worked for me for a good 6 months now with slightly lower kms. I am considering an upgrade, primarily to get a unit that will charge using excess solar only like a Zappi (as I’ve got 10kW solar and work from home often). Then I...

Not just Sydney… Canberra and many other locations too! Generally I find Australian drivers are getting less and less considerate of each other. Sad really.

Wow! I couldn’t cope with that. I’m at the minimum of 2, and in non-freeway conditions would like this to be 1!

I had an issue that adaptive headlights wouldn’t engage in one instance until I engaged autopilot… that was a while after I had manually disengaged the high beam using the stalk (as I was in a quiet street and dazzling the neighbours bedroom late). I haven’t had time to test that thoroughly, but...

Had the chance to give the adaptive headlights a workout tonight on a number of trips back and forth along Hindmarsh drive… I like them! 👍 Fast reaction time, smooth transition, and quite good coverage of the verge and centre divide which is sooo important in Canberra this time of year to pick...

Haven’t noticed Regen difference but did find that after the update my steering had been set to Sport instead of Normal which is what I had previously. Maybe same with yours?

Unfortunately about 5 separate instances of dry wipes this morning (several each time) before I turned back to manual… all because it was a bright sunny morning in my way to the office! Interestingly it seemed to remember that I had manual as the default and only switched to auto when using...

I had a similar problem and found that setting home while on my driveway instead of in my garage did the trick. I guess in the garage the gps signal was not as good, so the approximation picked the next street over.

I’m interesting I am on Standard and I think I got the update before you?

This year- probably back in Jan24. When I say “aggressive” on the change I meant too fast for my liking. On a freeway at 115km with no other cars near, you don’t need to turn the wheel into the lane change so it’s over in seconds which is what I feel it does. I like a gentle drift across into...

Desperately needed IMHO. I find I can only get about a 70% hit rate on the current recognition… and the commands are limited to pretty basic functions. (IMHO)

I personally find that it’s too aggressive (it makes the lane change too fast and not a smooth transition) and on occasions it freaks out and cancels the lane change when there is nothing there.

Can’t fault that! The “geek toy” factor is a valid requirement in any purchasing decision.

I have EAP and don’t really use it. The Autosteer is not smooth, even jerky in gentle curves, and it overreacts to the surrounding traffic (same as TACC). It always wants to stick to the centre of the lane, regardless- even if there is a massive semi only a couple of feet away. When it works...

Couldn’t contain myself and installed the update last night and did a few drives today. No issues so far. Must say I really like the improvements! The full screen of the car when you enter looks cool, and a simple tap of the map upper left or swipe brings back the old Nav map and small car...

Hindmarsh Drive worked perfectly for me today both times in both directions. You have to be routing navigation to get the notification, so assume you won’t get the average speed display without it either.

I think the coincidence is the update does a full reboot/restart of everything so clearing out any stuck gremlins… Id try the hard reboot on your phone as well when those things happen - much less frustrating than waiting for an update (although updates are more frequent these days)

It can check when not on WiFi, but will only download the update on Wifi

After waiting for almost a month after others for 2024.8.9 I got the notification to update 2024.14.3 this morning. Might wait a few days to see if any issues others be before applying.

Reboot? If you haven’t already I’d try that… and if still no good maybe a full power off? (not that I’ve gone that path myself). For other devices I often get similar on my wifi and a reboot or power off fixes. Might be quicker fix than service.

Oliver’s ?

I’d disagree- Given we have the highest per capita penetration and fastest growing market (as % of population) ours is the ideal market to focus on bringing in and testing new and true improvements. Other tech has known this for years - Australians love their new tech toys. In times gone by we...

Welcome to the world of Tesla updates -bizarre! I wish they would just use a normal SDLC approach, all these forked code paths and different distribution versions only confuses us and IMHO increases risk of bugs and reintroducing old ones! If a version is released, make it available to the...

Wouldn’t be hard… but Tesla are light years behind in true usable UI… they need a lesson or two from Apple! Even with this improvements the UI is klunky, and items in sub menus often totally out of context. It’s always the same when the tech drives the UI instead of true user centred design.

Just tested mine again now and is working… finally someone got to work on US Monday to reboot the server 😞

Is it actually sleeping? Or is sentry or something keeping it awake?
