When I have sentry mode enabled in the car and there is an event, should I receive a notification notice on the phone? Version 11.1 2024.3.25, I think is the software version.

Interesting idea I had not read about elsewhere yet. Although maybe it was important for it to slow down and stopping it prematurely causes some negative effects.

Yes, I did try one. It appeared to work fine, but I wasn't sure if I should have done anything in the settings. Good to know it was fine.

They have it, so thanks.

I have only used a supercharger once so far and I'm not sure I was doing the right thing. At home, I use the wall connector. I have it set up on a 60 amp breaker and set the car setting for 48 amp. Do I need to change that setting when using a supercharger? And if so, what should I change it...

When I am driving and stop at a light, I see the speed go down to 0 and then it switches to "Hold". But, when stopping at the same light during FSD, I see the speed go down to 0 and then it does NOT go into "Hold" mode. Is the car actually in "Hold" mode and it is just not showing it? If it...

My slc300 benz has maintenance reminders that display when due. Does MS have any? I haven't read anything about that.

I should have looked under, but don't specifically remember anything. If I saw one of the cars on a lift, I never noticed anything horrible.

I just did my first manual car wash after setting car wash mode. I didn't experiment with it, but the mirrors were not folded. I would think that would be a must. Is it supposed to fold them or is it expected that driver would do that manually?

Fwiw, I haven't washed a car in a car wash in winter ever. And I live in the Buffalo area (since 1975). Never had a car have a problem because of that. Just sold the 2013 fusion hybrid after getting the MY and it looked practically like new inside and out.

I have 2024 MS. My wife HATES the black wheel covers (I don't think they look great either). Are there any recommended replacement covers that work with the 19" Tempest wheels that are either some sort of light gray or silver/chromy?

Thanks for the elaborate description of programming, however, I wrote my first program in 1966 in a Physics class when the professor said "Here is a Schroedinger wave equation and here are the boundary conditions so go solve it on a computer." So we all learned Fortran and ran punch cards...

I'm going to have to search the web for how the heck these update numbers work. I JUST got the 2024 MS in March. I think that is a "newer Model S/X". And yet, my Release Notes show 2024.3.25 with FSD v12.3.6. How are people getting up to 2024.14.3 or 2024.8.x? Were there a bunch of updates...

I just got it last night. Disappointed that it didn't include the hatch opening triggered by phone. Does MS normally eventually get what the other models do?
