    I need to pee.... DAD, I need to pee!

    Does anybody know how to use the navigation (Model 3) to identify the next upcoming gas station or rest area on-route while driving on the highway in Europe??? Having small kids I run into this problem all the time. My Mercedes has this feature in the Navi that is always shows how many...

    I need to pee dad....

    With two young kids in the back I get this phrase regularly while driving on the highway (Europe).... Please help me find out how I quick and easy find the answer to how far it is to the next highway gas station (Raststätte) on my route. I have tried to ask the navi in all sorts of ways but it...

    FSD rewrite will go out on Oct 20 to limited beta

    The fact that Tesla has always been at risk of going bottom up has made it somewhat understandable that Elon was always trying to sell things that were not finished. However, with the impressive shareprice increases there really is no reason left to promise more than reality. Hence I sincerely...

    FSD rewrite will go out on Oct 20 to limited beta

    Yeap - very likely. And Tesla need to deliver it this year - otherwise it would be the second time they miss the “by end of year” deadline. Personally it would have gone a long way for me if Elon had provided a tiny apology or acknowledgement that this was due by end 2019, and bla bla bla...

    The Cancer that is Phantom Braking

    Damn it - i noticed 2020.32 being worse and was hoping 2020.36 would get better. I am so tired of being part of Teslas software development team.

    Navigate on Autopilot is Useless (2018.42.3)

    Not really buying that being true but even if it was then it is a really sad trade off tesla made. Taking basic stuff below standard to make AP work - not ok.

    Navigate on Autopilot is Useless (2018.42.3)

    My 2010 Mercedes E350 has less Phantom braking than my 2019 Model 3 with the full FSD package :-( It is an enigma to me why my Tesla continues to have this problem. It was solved a decade ago so why on earth is Tesla struggling so much with getting it right???

    Start ICE car with flat battery using M3?

    Thanks all I am not going to risk my favorite car . Just needed to know if there was a hack - but no. I am actually about to sell the old bugger - if anybody is actually going to pay money for it

    Any suggestions how I might use my M3 to start my oldtimer with a drained battery?

    Navigation update 2020.12 is out!

    Newer Teslas cannot read speed signs so your car will inevitably get it wrong every time map date deviate from reality (75% as you observed). The AP1 teslas can do it but Elon decided years ago to stop paying the company who holds the patent on this technology and removed this function from cars...

    Speed-limit sign reading coming “soon!”

    If there was a “workaround” they would have done it long time ago. More likely they are now making a deal with mobileye - swapping patents or simply paying the licensing fee. Elon has been silent on reading speed signs for long time so the fact he says “soon” likely means the deal with...
