Tesla are well known for phantom braking, they’re far from immune, although I’m not sure if you’re talking about a passive system or something that occurs when AP or the equivalent is active. Ours throws the anchors on under AP if it sees a car on a side road waiting to pull out. I can’t talk...

It’s a funny mix of countries that have had it in their release notes, but not many in Europe and I wonder what determines the country shown, where the car physically is or the country the car was first sold in as I don’t think Tesla sell into some of those places directly AE AT AU BR BY CA CN...

There’s been 2 bug fix releases in recent days, a .9 and a .11, but as those and .8 are all rolling out it looks like they’re for specific models/regions. As a guess that’s caused them to slow down a bit while they worked it out.

You don’t need easy controls to cycle threw intermittent slow, intermittent fast, slow, fast, auto to wipe the odd bug from the windscreen

You can, and its probably telling that in the latest software update they've made it easier to cycle through the various manually selected speeds

Teslafi seems way behind nowadays - it’s still not showing any news of 2024.14.9 despite a few other sources reporting it. That said, I don’t really see the point of being hungry for news. 2024.20 is a week old according to the trackers and yet nobody seems to actually have it. Another week...

Yep, it was mentioned on the ‘spring update’ thread. Seems to be just a bug fix

You might be surprised… I won’t say whether that’s ’pleasantly’ or not.. :)

It's odd as some seem to be able to do it straight away without the V5c and some require it. The proof of ownership/invoice might need the VIN number rather than the reg as Tesla don't work on reg, or maybe the determining factor is whether the car has been released by the previous owner. It's...

The previous owner may have relinquished ownership into the unknown It does seem to depend on who at Tesla looks at the request but proof of purchase is often all that’s required to take ownership onto your account, plus proof if your ID

I’m hearing 2024.14.9 has appeared.. only bug fixes but just as you thought you were finally up to date…

Agreed it shouldn't be needed but it is something I do just in case. That and rub my lucky beads

Certainly seems 14.8 is on a big push, and I’ve also seen it mentioned on Twitter with the comment effectively saying the spring update to be out for all in spring.. ie before June

Things have probably changed, the thread is over a year old

I woudn't nother sending the email, you can normally see the records in your Tesla account alongside the other actons you need to take (as and when they appear). You should see the amounts appear within a an hour during normal bank working hours. If you see them in your Tesla account, you also...

To add some additional info, its "Highway Autopilot" with your hardware, "Autopilot" is the term for Tesla hardware cars as the entry level offering, whereas with Mobileye hardware its more like EAP with parking, lane change etc included. You'd need to ask Tesla what the cost would be to...

You have the original Mobileye autopilot hardware but the activation wasn’t paid for. If you want it you need to talk to Tesla as there’s no in app purchase option. Its not a bad system.

Thanks - the monthly charge makes sense. Last question for today.. with the energy cap changing at the end of next month, are the current rates likely to drop, are you locked in or are they already reflected, or I guess maybe nobody knows? I’m aware these types of tariffs aren’t obliged to...

Is this the type of thing you're seeing? Taken from this where they mention it ,although personally I don't notice it on my car much, but maybe thats because of the lighter evenings

I’ve been looking at octopus and these issue make me feel it’s all a bit too complicated. I got the impression irrespective of charging whenever octopus sees it as a good idea, you get 6 hours of cheap rate over night. Is it possible to get your car to charge then (using a simple start charge...

There’s a much simpler explanation - they don’t do them all in one go

I’ve seen it mentioned in a few places - Twitter, Reddit, etc and all with a different mix of what’s in it, no 2 places are the same. I don’t get the fascination with wanting to know weeks before it comes here and then typically not getting most of what they say is coming.

There’s no smoke without fire, but you’ll also generally find negativity in reviews so you see the worst of it. Tesla insist that all service requests are done through the app which only really works if the fault is easy to determine. They do often expect you to confirm you’ll pay if no fault...

They’re calling it an early preview . Typically that means they’ve just cut and pasted every rumour on X into their website, what actually makes it might be different.

It’s trivial to set up an Apple short cut routine that stops charging and then unlocks the charge port without paying for any third party software. You can probably do it on android too. Once you've the shortcut you can either just ask Siri to do it, add it to an Apple Watch and do it via that...

Manual covers Europe and it launched there about 6 months earlier than we got it before Ryzen and the Li Ion battery

I seem to recall the likely charges were based on volume of calls on particular cars (might by particular accounts) so I read that as a couple of calls per day was cheap but polling the car every minute or so for streaming data would get expensive. Octopus might be ok or their costs very...

I’ve an early MY in the UK with Ryzen/Li Ion low volt battery. It really doesn’t help I’m afraid but ‘Tesla working on…’ is a common feature of the brand

Each to their own on the topic, but many of the things they offer Tesla are now offering natively or easy to set up (like shortcuts), Apple Watch support rumoured to be on its way, data logging is the one area Tesla doesn’t really do but could wipe the floor with everyone if they did, and of...

Depends where you want to look - another view is 2024.14.6 got to just shy of 25%. Personally I’m sceptical about 370k+ cars - that’s getting on for 1 in 15 owners have paid for Tessie?

They seem a bit late to the party on this one, but yes, it does seem to going to more cars

Park assist is coming to USS cars without Ryzen as per the recent release notes - you can switch between USS and Tesla Vision if you have USS, and the dropping of USS and introduction of Ryzen weren’t that far apart. Auto park is something else and you’d need EAP or FSD to be able to use it. I...

I think it's only 80% and the boss who tried to save them is still fired, so now he has a workforce but seemingly nobody to direct them

Releases are like buses.. another one will be along shortly and sure enough.. bug fix 2024.14.7 has appeared

Seen it tweeted too by others, notes say it’s a bug fix

Some hate performance management, but done well it’s often a motivator for the average or better performer. I imagine you’ve come across some who you’d gladly see the back of as not everybody in any organisation, especially the size of the NHS, are going to be doing a good let alone great job...

I recon the majority will get it over the next 2 weeks as we seem over the early issues. Also take a look at how many cars are talked about by any of these tracking websites and remember there are millions and millions of Teslas out there, they don’t have any secret source or knowledge, you...

I suspect intel folk will get pretty much everything except the big flashy rotating car graphic which showcases what they can do in park.

Mod comment: ahem...friendly reminder to please play nicely, no one message has triggered this, just the general direction it seems to be heading

You can also see by model and region

Like many things, you need to do the sums for your own circumstances. I’ve not moved to one of these as my mileage is now relatively low so not much charging at home, my daytime consumption can’t easily be moved to overnight (blame the wife) and the convenience of not having to care when we do...

Depending where you read, only about 7% of cars are on it, so you’re not alone

it’s a bit geeky but I recon this explains AI and the differing views on whether it’s going to ‘exponentially improve’ (which always seemed a daft assumption to me but seems to be a legitimate argument), through to the more pessimistic view that it will plateau before reaching optimum...

I think some last night may have had a touch too much sun, excited by Eurovision and/or the solar flare is typing random messages for them. Communication is a 2 way process, if somebody doesn’t understand a cryptic post it’s great if it’s explained in words people understand, it may take an...

I had similar but not the “do not drive”. Front motor electronic bits (I understood the stuff that converts the energy from the battery to something the motor wants) was dead. Took about a week to fix under warranty, had a loan car whilst they did it.

I don’t know if there are HR legislation issues admitting you got something wrong like this, and presumably this is in multiple countries with different laws. Making a whole business function redundant is probably easier than taking out 30% and having to go through a selection process and...

Looks like .6 is Norrh America only at the moment based on a roll out heat map

Would this be single stack autopilot (in its most generic sense) with regions just having different capabilities enabled? It would make a lot of sense for Tesla to do that and I reallly hope they’re not running one massive single net that takes 8 cameras and the output is turn left or right -...

It’s a shame he wasn’t so quick to jump on the nagative press after the supercharger team news as he was on the Reuters article about the Model 2, maybe he really doesn’t see the significance. They’ve said existing projects are to continue if work has started, and they’re using 3rd parties for...

I’ve own a late but pre-raven MS and a M3. The first thing that struck me was how much faster the M3 added miles at a supercharger. The gap has closed a bit, but a combination of the higher charge speeds and better efficiency meant adding 150 miles of range was a lot quicker. I believe they’ve...
