    Canada Waiting Room

    I texted them and it is indeed CAD$. Well, I could easily sell it myself for 39k$ I guess I'll wait and see what the end of quarter rebates looks like on inventory in march.

    Canada Waiting Room

    I wanted to upgrade to a Model Y. So I sent my VIN to get an idea of trade-in value. I wonder if Tesla sent me a trade-in offer in US dollars instead of Canadian. Has this ever happened to anyone here? It's for a blue 2023 Model 3 RWD with 7000km. They offer 27800$. :oops: That can't be in...

    Poll - When do you believe park assist will be available again?

    My guess is that it comes with 11.3 (the version where FSD code is merged with Autopilot).

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    Got rid of my 2019 M3SR+ and I'm taking delivery of a 2023 M3 RWD next week. Might be very poor timing on my part (or a very good one). 🙃

    Your Prediction for Restoration of USS Features

    The coming version 11.3 should finally bring a good implementation of Vision Only to regular Autopilot and TACC no?

    Buy Model 3 Now or Wait? [jan 2023]

    I would argue that once HW4, new radar or a refresh is officially announced, then the models coming with it will simply cost more. I do not believe the current deal will still be there for these newer models.

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    What if cars without USS already have this new hardware? I mean, why would Tesla remove those sensors just for a couple months and then add a radar back on newer models. This would kill the value of all cars built within this short time frame. Surely there is a secret ingredient we are not aware...

    2023 Model 3 without USS and proximity functionality [park assist / summon not available]

    How long did it take the last time they removed the radar for Vision Only cars to regain the missing features? It might give us an idea.

    I can't wait for the next update! Phantom braking is driving me nuts.

    I just sold my 2019 Model 3 SR+ essentially because of phantom braking and am taking delivery of my new vehicule tomorrow morning. Adios phantom braking. At least I made a profit selling it higher than I paid 2 years ago.

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    I sold it higher than I paid 2 years ago (and higher than it is sold new today). And yes I'm going back to a PHEV (60 km EV range) for the next 3 years because there are simply no BEV available at the moment around here (with decent range). Anyway, I'll be back to the BEV world before long...

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    Maybe I am nuts yeah. :) But I pulled the trigger today and sold my M3 (with profits) and took a 3 year lease on the Titanium Elite PlugIn. I am planning on reentering the BEV world by then. Right now, wait times around here to get a Kia EV6, for example, are 18-24 months. So I'll take a look...

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    Yeah, thanks for the feedback. After all, this might not be such a good idea for me. :) I just seriously cannot stand the phantom braking I get on the roads I have to travel, to the point that I am considering "downgrading" (although upgrade in luxury). But it's to a point now where I am...

    Switching from 2019 Model 3 SR+ to a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1

    I am currently driving a 2019 Model 3 SR+ and am about to exchange it for a 2015 Model S 85D with AP1. I would like to know what I should expect as differences in driving behavior or things that I might regret losing? The reason for the switch is twofold. First, the resale value of M3s are...

    I can't wait for the next update! Phantom braking is driving me nuts.

    I am actually thinking of trading in my 2019 M3 for an older Model S with AP1 just to get rid of phantom braking. Would that be just a dumb move? Or can owners of AP1 models confirm that phantom braking is not as much an issue with AP1? I would be very happy with just dumb adaptive cruise at...

    #FixPhantomBraking

    But with all that being said, I remain ever optimistic that when FSD beta is no longer beta and used as the code base for Autopilot, this should fix it.
  16. Valtor

    #FixPhantomBraking

    I get the feeling that we don't get the option because it could be seen as an admission that there is an issue. I was really hoping that Vision Only would fix it, but it seems to make things worse instead. I guess the data model "sees" more phantom/false issues than the radar was "seeing"...

    #FixPhantomBraking

    I have a 2019 M3. So radar-active as of this writing. But really the issue exists with all models and versions. At least they could give us an option to enable a dumber version of TACC that acts just like a regular Adaptive Cruise Control while they figure things out with TACC and Autopilot.

    Love Tesla. Love my car. Wish Tesla would please fix the USB Audio Player.

    Is it just me or has this finally been fixed ? It seems that USB playback resuming has been flawless for a little while for me.

    Is current sensor suite enough to reach FSD? (out of main)

    I'm sure they do. But to the subject of this thread. Can they do it with the currently installed hardware? After this last winter driving my M3, I doubt very much FSD will be feasible here in winter with the current hardware.
  21. Valtor

    Is current sensor suite enough to reach FSD? (out of main)

    I don't know if the car needs more sensors per se, but I do know that it will need some ways of auto cleaning all the sensors for it to work in the Canadian winter.

    Poll: Is FSD Worth the Cost?

    We need a dumbed down version of "Traffic Aware Cruise Control" to just "Cruise With Radar". Let the smart stuff happen on AP/FSD and let us use cruise without the phantom breaking please !!!
  24. Valtor

    Wow, we need to find another way to heat EVs

    In Canadian winter, 45% range loss is pretty standard. 50% seems a bit much, must have been due to speed maybe.
  25. Valtor

    Poll: Is FSD Worth the Cost?

    I would be happy just to have the TACC stop trying to kill me without extreme phantom breaking. I so wish there was a dumbed down version of it we can select where it's just a cruise with radar. My wife won't allow me to use cruise at all now. I would understand if these things were happening...

    Come here baby 2019.40.2.1

    Yeah for the snow storm is that you can go for long stretches of road where conditions are fine but the cameras are still obstructed. I could relax my foot for 20 km at a time before hitting the next stretch of snow covered road.
  27. Valtor

    Come here baby 2019.40.2.1

    The TACC is still much too smart and reacts to all sorts of things it sees. I wish we had a dumber option that really just keeps its distance from cars in front without breaking or slowing for shadows or whatever it sees.

    Weaker regenerative braking with 2019.36.2.1

    Now with software version 2019.36.2.4 my regen is back to normal (winter normal) even with the Hakka 9 Studded. Very happy about this.
  29. Valtor

    Come here baby 2019.40.2.1

    I so wish we had a way of enabling only a basic cruise with radar. Often that is all that is needed. Let the smart things only happen when on autopilot... I would even appreciate an option to have dumb cruise without radar for when conditions are too bad for the system to figure out (snow...

    Which winter tires are you biying?

    I did lose all regen as well with the Hakka 9 studded on a M3 RWD SR+. It took about a week and a half to get some regen back. I'm still glad I have these on. Best ice tires out there...

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    So time did indeed help matters. My M3 no longer sails when I release the accelerator. Regen is no where near what it would be with other tires, but I now have some regen the majority of the time...

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    Well, this morning it was better. I had also switched back to Hold mode. So I am cautiously optimistic. :)

    Weaker regenerative braking with 2019.36.2.1

    I see a difference in the regen experienced while driving at higher speeds (higher than 70 km/h). I do not know why these two modes should have any effect on regen at higher speeds, but that's what I see.
  34. Valtor

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    I just find an opportunity to quickly put the car in park so I can switch modes a couple times on the same drive with all other variables being the same and on my M3 RWD SR+ the difference is very noticeable. The issue for me is that I also switched to winter tires so it might not be the new...

    Weaker regenerative braking with 2019.36.2.1

    Humm maybe, but I'm not convinced. My tests were all made at about -10 celcius outside temps just after exiting a heated garage (heated at 5 celcius). You can experience the difference live while driving, you just have to find an opportunity to quickly put the car in Park to change the mode...

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    I discovered while testing today that regen is stronger when configured back the way it was before 2019.36.2.1, that is without the new Hold setting.

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    This is exactly what is happening to me. The available regen on the bar is barely used or not at all and the car just sails.
  39. Valtor

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    Yeah ok, it's been 3 days now for me with about 200km. In my area it seems they never heard of road salt and so we spend all winter on pure smooth ice. I really need those tires, so I'll say goodbye to regen for 5 months per year. :-(

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    It's my first winter with the M3, but I am experiencing everything that was described in last year's issue with winter tires. Is it confirmed by Tesla that the fix implemented last year means that the car needs time to adjust before regen is back to normal ?
  41. Valtor

    Who has lost regen with winter tires?

    I'm hoping you are right. I will report back in a couple of days to give feedback. At the moment, my regen is nearly non existent with all other conditions being the same. I'm using brand new Hakka 9 studded on a Model 3 RWD SR+. I thought the culprit was the latest software update, but if...

    Could last night's Update have affected my regenerative braking?

    The regen decision tree really has changed. I am seeing MUCH less regen as well in exactly the same conditions as before (battery temperature, outside temperature, charge level, etc...). There really is an issue with regen in this update, no doubt about it. At least for a Model 3 RWD SR+. My...
  43. Valtor

    Weaker regenerative braking with 2019.36.2.1

    Yes I see this as well. Nearly no regen now, whatever mode I try. Although, I also just got my winter tires installed which seemed to have caused issues last winter as well with Model 3 RWD.

    Tesla not honoring referral

    I had an issue as well with the referral program and they heavily resisted fixing it. I ended my mail chain with them by asking them to forward this suggestion to where it may help: "I would suggest that, since 1500km of superchargers is worth about 50$, it is a very small amount for Tesla to...

    Disabling Model 3 AutoPilot without Disabling Cruise Control
