    FSD Beta 12.3 GA

    Got 12.3 on my 21 M3LR yesterday. First drive was surprisingly good and smooth. Second drive, car took what should be a very standard and easy right turn and hit the curb with the rear right wheel, causing a small curb rash. Hopefully it didn't mess up anything else.

    Losing battery rapidly [due to sentry mode]

    The car being "awake" uses about 0.25kW (per other posts on this forum). That amounts to at least 6kWh or about 8% per day. Keeping Sentry/cameras activated and constantly connecting to the car via the app likely ups that energy consumption. The car "asleep" (sentry off) should not have any...

    Model 3 with FSD on Road Trip

    You are confused and I would urge you to stop using Autopilot until you get a better understanding. Please do not do any "testing on the highway" until your confusion is completely dispelled. Autopilot (engaged with two down pulls of the right stalk) is essentially Traffic Aware Cruise Control...

    Replacement battery question?

    That seems about right.

    FSD v12.x (end to end AI)

    You're clearly taking Elon's comment here out of context. He's obviously talking about photons as they pertain to sensory input for driving which has nothing to do with his general views on humanity, whatever they may be... Your attack on Elon here is not very objective and diminishes whatever...

    Loud snapping or popping noise

    I've experiences this a handful of times. At first I thought it was a rock hitting the windshield. It sounds like it could be coming from a speaker near the driver side A pillar.

    FSD Owners - Do any of you prefer leaving it off?

    I just do not see the value in EAP. Paying $6k for basically lane change capability on a 40k car seems unproportionate. Maybe if it at least stopped at red lights, you could argue it has more utility. $12k for FSD can be justified IF you convince yourself that one day it will do what Tesla...

    FSD Owners - Do any of you prefer leaving it off?

    I agree. If you treat FSD as really good TACC it works well. Once you learn its limitations, you can anticipate and take over during its limitations. This strategy tends to work really well on my normal routes since FSD tends to screw up in same situations/roads/intersections.

    FSD Owners - Do any of you prefer leaving it off?

    I got 11.4.7.3 today and tested it on a 60 mile non-highway round trip. They seem to have ironed out some quirks that made 11.4.7.2 unsafe and unusable on this particular road I take all the time. Overall it was a good run (not perfect) and I'm encouraged to use FSDb more.

    FSD Beta v11.x

    FSDb seems to be a lot better than AP as far as phantom braking goes. Of course there are other issues with FSDb. In my experience FSDb does really well on highways and major routes.

    Do cars that currently have USS get them disabled in a software update?

    Did 2023.27.6 stop using USS? Sure seems like it after my most recent update. My USS seem to be working very poorly on the 2021 M3 LR. Anyone able to confirm?

    Uncomfortable Front Seat(s) / Thigh Bolster Mod

    Do you have the link for the pillow? Did you put it under the cover? Do you have the link for both items? I only see the seat cover for Model Y on the website. Will it fit on 3?

    Uncomfortable Front Seat(s) / Thigh Bolster Mod

    No offense pal, but if you're not willing to share your "trade secret" then why keep bringing up your solution every time someone else posts about what they did? I see you writing up a lengthy post every time someone else posts about their own idea. You came up with a brilliant idea and you...

    What did you replace it with?

    Uncomfortable driver seat

    Can you recommend a piece of dense foam or other car seat cushion that you used to make the seat bottom flatter?
