    Is anyone else’s FSD Beta vehicle trying to install 2021.40.6?

    Quick update. I was previously on 2021.36.8.8 bumped off to 2021.40.6. Now that the holiday update is here, I am sad to report that I am on the main branch with 2021.44.25.2. Oof, so I wonder how they manage fsd releases. It might not be VIN based but by version and rollout batches.

    Is anyone else’s FSD Beta vehicle trying to install 2021.40.6?

    I took the plunge and volunteered myself as tribute. I am now on 2021.40.6 from 2021.36.8.8 and can confirm that I am no longer on the fsd beta branch. I do get waypoints though, so I’m not completely empty handed. I’ll post any updates on whether I get back on the fad branch or not. The safety...

    Hey, I am in the beta (2021.36.8.8) and also have a pending update to 2021.40.6. I have the refresh model S LR. Haven't had the chance to update yet but have the same question as you. Seems odd to go to a production build

    Has Tesla even applied for a permit to test driverless cars?

    I think "FSD" still expects a human driver to take over at any time, so driverless may not apply to the system yet.

    How many miles did your NEW 2021 MSLR or Plaid come with?

    I believe mine had around ~15 miles as mine was direct delivered from the Fremont factory.

    2021+ Model S Tail Lights Modification

    Absolutely not. I’m thinking plastic diffusers or a film diffuser to wrap the led strips individually. Not black out but I want to replicate the new tail lights of the 3, Y, X

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    I agree. Stanford FCU has been lovely to work with in getting financing set up for my order. Very quick turnaround & no hoops to jump since they work closely with Tesla. There’s another thread on Stanford FCU but their 1.49% rate is relatively easy to obtain. For issues with your car you can...

    2021+ Model S Tail Lights Modification

    I’m looking to mod my tail lights to diffuse similarly to the Model 3, Y, and X. Does anyone know of any prior attempts at replacing or modding the Model S tail lights to be more diffused? I imagine the project would entail: Removing the tail light assemblies Cutting open the tail lights Wrap...

    2021+ Model S LR Delivery Tracking

    This is the mega checklist everyone here has been using. https://teslamotorsclub.com/tmc/threads/mega-consolidated-delivery-quality-issues-thread-and-checklist.236802/ And no I haven’t heard about when the trunk pieces would be delivered. I put in a service request & will report back if I hear...

    End of quarter push - quality control

    I just took delivery. You could consider this part of the EOQ push. It was nearly flawless minus a few minor things like debris, adhesive, and missing trunk pieces that others are also experiencing. My write up in another thread linked below
