Loot box in T≡SLA app now gone

Just got 2018.6.1 and had the console screen go black while driving (screen above the steering wheel stayed alive). Not cool. Holding down both steering wheel roller buttons at 45mph to reboot.

Fast and furious. Usually when a release comes out this soon after the previous release there was some significant bug that had to be fixed. Hopefully someone will post some deets soon, but I suspect the release notes will look the same as the previous 2 drops. Maybe the fixed the download fail...

Anyone notice any changes to the browser with 2018.4.5?

And to add, I live in Austin, TX and the service center has been excellent so far. Granted, the car is new so I wish I knew nothing about the service center, but alas I have interacted with them and each time has been above my expectations.

Chill mode + AP is the only way I’ll do it. Smooths out the rediculous auto pilot accelerations.

I think Tesla is still trying to figure out it’s oveall service strategy (like its trying to figure out its supercharger strategy). With the model3 and more and more Tesla’s on the road the Tesla only service center approach will be bound to get overwhelmed and suffer. The ICE car companies...

2017 MS 75d. Per the tesla manual, range mode does the following when on: 1. Turn off day time running lights 2. Limit the amount of power the cabin temp heating/cooling can use 3. Limit the amount of power the battery heating and cooling system can use. 4. For dual motor cars “optimized...

Like most, love the car, but there are a number of things that make me say...."really?!". On the positive side, the greatest thing being the OTA updates can actually fix these things whenever the developers get around to it. 1. Navigation - maps are fine, but the lady actually says right when...

Agree with other posts with one addition. My 2017 model S would not present the door handles when I pressed any of them. A trip to the service center actually found that the excessive recessing of the handles was the problem. The fix they did was to move them out slightly so that they were...

Technically they are separate. However, my initial use of AP I find it very useful on highway traffic where the car will vary the speed based on the car in front. But when say the car in front changes lanes creating a gap, the car accelerates way too fast, also, auto lane changes into a lane...

Just had my 2017 MS back from the service center and they put 2018.2 on it. Like other said, nothing new feature-wise in the release notes, did use AP on the drive home and also did not notice anything significantly different. I should drive on the highway with overpasses where it really has...
