Random thinking aloud.... The model 3 has a combined MCU and AP3 computer (double board in a single module), could Tesla retro fit that and use existing MCU 1 as a dumb display terminal. A different software config, but no new hardware (just used in a different config).

Yes the entertainment system could do with some TLC...

Fantastic thread.... Probably the best way to look at this is to consider the new NN's have given AP2 a "new pair of glasses". It can see better, but is not making any new decisions nor is it recognising anything new. It's much much better at seeing what we thought it saw before, road markings...

We all focus on miles driven. Has anyone looked at other variables? What about average temperature? What about age? Would interesting to compare e.g. 6 year old 50k mile with 6 year old 300k

Blueprinting is literally making the components to the blueprint I.e the exact design rather than to a tolerance. (E.g. if a piston should weigh 10+/- 0.5 then a normal engine would have pistons weighing e.g. 10.5 10.2 9.8 9.5 and be in tolerance, a blueprinted engine would be 4 x 10 ). Has the...

Interesting... if we go with 3 miles per kW/h, and battery life of 500-1000 cycles (Apple quote 500 cycles to 80%as warranty on their iPhone batteries which get much more abuse). So if you have a 1 kW/h battery it has a life of 3 x 500 - 3 x 1000 or 1500 - 3000 miles Multiply up 30 kW/h =...

Anyone know what happened to Brighouse? Are they still stuck in Wayleave hell? They've been finished but not connected for months now.

Level 5... aka all roads all conditions >5 years. I think they probably get FSD on freeways/motorways etc (aka Level 4) in <5 years. That will mean you can ask the car to drive on freeway but you take over on local roads.... thats a big chunk of time in many long distance and a large number of...

Hi, I have similar problems in a parking structure - good LTE but no GPS. I can confirm the car needs 1. Data connection WiFi or LTE 2. Phone connected to WiFi or LTE 3. Key fob within range 4. GPS location for both phone / car to be close to each other. Loose any one and Summon stops. I think...

Milkfloat - For those outside Britain it's a very early BEV.... top speed 20-25mph... I don't want the Tesla getting ideas above it's station in life. Milk float - Wikipedia

Navigon data is about 3 months out of date... I have a garmin GPS with lifetime updates that uses the same data. Typically 2 or 4 updates a year... I can tell roughly that they are about 3 months because of new road openings... Wheras the google maps on the main display are maybe 2 weeks old -...

That would agree - max range is about 60 -100 metres - remember it's also using the Radar

So in ElonSpeak(™) - should be able to = 50% probability. Next Month = 31st March So 50% probability of TACC / EAP to 85mph by 31st March?

I've found it great in stop / start rush hour traffic - just following the car in front. Lines are very jittery at times but it seems to cope with the limited case. No blindspot, no traffic in other lanes - just following a car in the current lane. I assume they will add - traffic in other...

Had about 30 mins in slow moving traffic (accident ahead)... once I got to 5mph (a real achievement!) I engaged auto steer. Really took the pressure of sitting in the slow moving traffic. Discovered it's pretty happy at 8-10mph with one hand holding the wheel at the 4pm position. Looking...
