    Model S Delivery checklist

    @AndrewL I left a comment on the page, but your Print button doesn't expand the sections, and they only allow one at a time to be expanded. It'd be awesome if pressing the print button expanded all of them.

    Tesla autopilot HW3

    I've never been able to hear them. Even outside the vehicle, it's little more than a slight whir.

    Firmware 9 in August will start rolling out full self-driving features!!!

    Is the "Customer Concern" the bow & arrow sound during a harder braking event?

    Turo Doesn't Follow their Agreement with Hosts

    Can confirm. I live in this small part of the country and work for a startup that believes that no one will have our robotaxi arrive to pick them up and find puke/food/other messes in the car left by the last rider. (We don't really believe that but do believe there's a technological solution to...

    Turo Doesn't Follow their Agreement with Hosts

    I've rented Tesla's several times on Turo and heard a similar thing from a host in Chicago: one renter drove over the plug-in charger and Turo refused to cover it because that was "an accessory" and he shouldn't have left it in the car. That nearly left me nearly stranded unable to charge at my...

    "Navigate on Autopilot (beta)"

    So I had an interesting happening this evening. The Navigate on Autopilot button went away, after being enabled, and the little descending chime played. I usually leave my map in trip overview mode, and we were sitting in some traffic, so I toggled the map to "Heading" and the Nav on Autopilot...

    Remove center console on 2017 Model S

    Down and out, pretty hard. You probably won't break anything. ;) If you're afraid to try, DM me and we can meetup somewhere and work on it together. I have some trim-panel pry tools that we can use to avoid marring the finish.

    Remove center console on 2017 Model S

    Mine's a MY2017, so it's one big piece down each side. If you slide the seat allllll the way back, you can do it. Though, I haven't had to actually remove it. Just pop it open and I could usually see the card and grab it.

    Navigate on autopilot - Interstate Exit

    In most cases that slow-down will start even with TACC on and autosteer off.

    Remove center console on 2017 Model S

    I've had that happen a few times. The first time I asked the service center and they found it for me. Took them about 5mins. The second, I did it myself. If you pop one or both of the side trim pieces off, you can see up into the supporting mechanism behind the door; the part up under the touch...

    Neural Networks

    There's an interesting whitepaper of unknown date from some of the early waymo mapping of traffic lights: https://static.googleusercontent.com/media/research.google.com/en//pubs/archive/37259.pdf

    Phantom braking will get a lot worse before it gets better

    I think Lyft would have no problem filling the vacuum even without Uber dying. From a friend who works there, I know they have different views of the world: Uber is building an app; Lyft is building an app store. In other words, Lyft's app supposedly supports plugging in different rideshare...

    USA S/W 42.2 19e7e44 but no NoA

    Mine are good and I have NoA now. But I'm too curious for my own good.
