Another anecdote with SR+ here. Traction control in snow/slush while moving is surprisingly good even with stock tires (MXM4). Starting from a standstill uphill (which happens a lot here) is dismal. Fortunately I did not get stuck on a public road. Car slid backwards in a parking spot and didn't...

My mistake, meant to say write speed. In any case, the figure that matters is not "up to" some speed, it's sustained performance. I too was able to achieve around 15 MB/s on the bar plus, for a single test. Playing with the settings, it becomes clear the drives can't sustain that write...

Since switching from a Samsung Bar Plus 256GB to a Sandisk Extreme Pro 128GB a month ago, I have had zero issues with the "too slow" message. Several other people have reported success with this model as well. From what I understand, the Extreme Pro uses an SSD controller rather than a typical...

So far I've found AP to be a lot smoother with acceleration and deceleration, especially in stop and go traffic. It also seems to choose an inside line when taking curves at speed which is also nice. No phantom or sudden braking experienced so far. A couple times this meant that my car stayed a...

I've had this happen a couple times recently and my thought was that after getting into the car I'm closing the door before setting my full weight on the seat, so the car briefly thinks it's closed and unoccupied and turns the screen off. I have no definitive proof of anything but that was my...

For what it's worth, my replacement has not given me any more issues. I wonder if it's possible to damage the latch if you're not careful to wait for the white light every time you unplug? The service tech who replaced mine was quick to remind me about that.

I think we mostly agree, but my original hope with the tint was to prevent the cabin from getting up to the cabin overheat threshold daily while sitting in a sunny parking lot all day. Definitely don't dispute the direct heat blocking effect, but I don't live in a place where this is normally a...

I haven't done any tests myself, I just read some posts on this forum where temperature was logged over time and the curves apparently matched very closely. Well, evaporation would occur regardless of airflow, right? The mass flow of air over a surface has its own independent cooling effect...

All of the glass in my car is completely stock. I considered tinting at one point to reduce cabin heating while parked in the sun, but it seems like that doesn't really lower the peak temperature, just maybe slows it down a tiny bit. Reflectors seem to behave the same way. It's true I didn't...

I drove through 110+°F degree heat (max I saw was 47°C/116°F) over 2 days from OKC to Orange County last weekend and I didn't have any issue with AC getting bogged down (SR+). I had mine set to 74 while charging in Needles with an ambient temp of 113 and it seemed to handle that ok. Didn't check...

Some guy in a riced out Sentra tried to race me earlier. I hadn't even turned off chill mode yet and outdid him from 30 to 40 when I heard his engine revving at me. I turned off chill at the next red light and by the time I reached 30 I was a car length ahead and his tires were still squealing...

1000 miles worth of bugs and still thousands more to go

I read in a couple of threads on here that ext4 was supported for dashcam since a recent update, so I tried it and it worked. Seems like there's still some issues though. Mac: divide USB into 2 partitions (for dashcam and music) USB no longer works for Dahcam

Some more anecdata: Samsung Bar Plus 256GB 200GB FAT32 partition for music, balance FAT32 for TeslaCam: too slow 32GB FAT32 for TeslaCam, balance ext4 for music: too slow 16GB FAT32 for TeslaCam, balance ext4 for music: too slow Single partition ext4 for TeslaCam: seems to work Kingston...

I would be interested to see a tail lamp mod that adds a progressive amber strip for turn signals, similar to what someone showed off in the front fogs recently. The extra emitters exist in other markets so I wonder if there's at least an unused signal in the wire harness for that purpose.
