    How did I ever do a road trip before the Model 3?

    I rarely use "plain" AP for highway driving, I use NOA instead and that way I rarely have to use the signal to go around slowpokes, the car just takes care of it without my intervention. It's even "thoughtful" enough to get back out of the passing lane :)

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    Oh, I completely agree that there has to be some kind of "consistency check" involved, no question.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    Given the forum, the verygreen quote doesn't seem terribly relevant and renders arguing whether "integrity check" = "CRC" somewhat moot, IMHO :)

    AP Cameras badly blinded.... 2019.40.50.5

    I had repeated NOA disengage/reengage on a drive recently so I pulled over to check how dirty the camera really was, turned out there was an oval of condensation on the inside of the glass that the door pillar camera is behind. I've been meaning to ask around here if others have seen this and...

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.50.x - Driving Visualization improvements, new voice commands, Camping Mode

    I've been waiting (impatiently) since 50.1 started rolling out in volume without any luck. Today I got in the car and the screen was black, apparently in the middle of a reboot for reasons unknown to me. As soon as it came back up I had the download link for 50.1. A couple of hours later I...

    Elon Confirms that the FSD sneak peak is for car with HW3 only

    It doesn't matter what you or I believe if that's what Elon/Tesla believe. If you believe anything at all that Tesla says then surely you buy into the concept that their competitive advantage is the constant flow of data from the fleet running iterative software releases? If you no longer...

    Christmas Update Speculation

    I'm crossing my fingers that this is the first HW3 "native" code base release. IMHO the release that unleashes HW3 will be a huge leap forward in the quality of current capabilities. In my mind at least, switching from HW2.5 based software to HW3 with the current feature set reasonably fits...

    Elon Confirms that the FSD sneak peak is for car with HW3 only

    I have genuine sympathy for the folks that paid early for FSD and still don't have the hardware to run it. That said, I don't understand the argument that those users still expect to get it first, regardless of what they feel they were promised. I believe there are some harsh realities that...

    Elon Confirms that the FSD sneak peak is for car with HW3 only

    Has anybody considered that "sneak peak at FSD" being restricted to HW3 might mean that this release will be the cutover to native HW3 code? We know that HW3 is required for FSD, it's common belief that the current software is running in something akin to "HW 2.5 emulation mode" on 3.0. Even...

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    Genuine question, not trying to be snarky, but, you didn't know that the battery would degrade over time when you bought it?

    Comparing LR AWD to SR+

    It does, but in my limited experience it's very inaccurate.

    Comparing LR AWD to SR+

    The LR is close to a second quicker to 60. You also get the premium interior with the LR and partial premium with the SR+ which means rear heated seats, premium audio, fog lights, floor mats, additional cabin lighting...did I miss anything? Yes, premium connectivity is premium connectivity...

    MASTER THREAD: V 2019.40.1.1 170kW charging, Neural Net for Auto Wipers, Auto Lane Change quicker

    Same here, used a 120kw charger yesterday, shared with a Model S so I was expecting 60kw as I preconditioned and was around 23% SOC, 44kw was the best it managed :(

    That sounds like a decision they have made at that particular service center since my local service center just replaced them on Monday.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.40.2 - FSD AutoSteer Stop Sign Warning and Adjacent Lane Speeds

    Received 40.2.1 last night (from 36.2.4), minimal driving so far but lane changes (with NOA engaged) didn't appear to have changed at all. Haven't had the opportunity (or conditions) to test anything else yet.

    How did you get used to and/or trust EAP/NOA/FSD?

    Personally I've found AP/NOA to be far more "trustworthy" on freeways (where they recommend it's used) and far more sketchy on surface streets (where they don't recommend it's used). I've experienced some things on the freeway that just make me shake my head and smile...much like the teenage...

    "Bangs" and "Clunks" when charging?

    I've been trying to figure out if this was a noise on the car or road debris for a couple of weeks now (since the weather cooled off somewhat), this thread convinces me that it is not debris. Heard it today in slow traffic on the freeway, wasn't particularly cold (low 50's) hadn't dropped a lot...

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    Mine (Model 3/HW3) also renders the cones without being in NAP. I haven't come across any barrels but it renders the taller, skinnier "cones" the same way. I guess they have a wide range of traffic "cones" they detect but only one image to render with in the GUI.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.2.1 - new HOLD mode and other features

    Are you sure this is what you want? :) We're in different states but the way I understand our solar working is that you are better off minimizing your usage during peak, as then you get credit for the power sent to the grid at the peak rate. I still charge at night even with solar because I...

    MASTER THREAD: USB drives that work with Sentry and TeslaCam

    What is considered a reliable tool (on Windows) to measure the sustained write speed of a USB stick? I've got two drives (both less than three months old) that are reporting issues and I'd like to confirm what their performance is before submitting for replacements.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.1 update released with 5% power increase

    I'm looking for a situation specific setting for auto-navigation, not the blanket On/Off that is available today. If I'm travelling to somewhere new, I want voice prompts. If auto-navigation is "taking" me to work, or back home from work, I don't need to hear the voice prompts.

    MASTER THREAD: 2019.36.1 update released with 5% power increase

    Question about auto-navigate for those that have tried it, is there an option to suppress the verbal turn by turn directions? Seems reasonable that if the car "knows me" well enough to predict when I want to go to/from work then it should also know I don't need voice prompts for each turn...

    Problems with Auto Lane change in 32.12.2

    I've got a pretty strong hunch I am seeing this too. I've been noticing the "obstacle notification" in the back left on freeway driving sometimes triggering non-stop for several minutes when there is nothing there. During roughly the same period I have had a big jump in aborted lane changes...

    Using an inverter to charge a computer: recommendations? cautionary tales? effect on 12 v battery?

    That might be why you are seeing drain on the 12v, you could try turning on Sentry and see if you get a different result?

    Problems with Auto Lane change in 32.12.2

    I've seen this several times in the last couple of days. No indication from the visualizations that anything was amis, I also feel like an idiot when it happens :) I have increased my cruise speed in the last week or so, I'm going to drop back to my original setting and see whether that...

    Phantom ultrasonic obstacle detection

    I've started noticing that I sometimes get near constant obstacle notifications come from the back left corner of the car. I can be sat in the middle lane of a three lane freeway and it's just going bananas when there is nothing there at all. The closest "obstacle" is the concrete center...

    Using an inverter to charge a computer: recommendations? cautionary tales? effect on 12 v battery?

    I'd heard such talk too so I contacted support in chat, once they understood that I was connecting to the 12v battery directly and not the "powertrain" battery or the AUX 12v port in the center console they said it was fine. I kept the chat conversation just in case though :) I haven't had any...

    Using an inverter to charge a computer: recommendations? cautionary tales? effect on 12 v battery?

    Correct, the 12v accessory outlet doesn't come closer to cutting it for this kind of draw, has to be direct too the battery.

    Using an inverter to charge a computer: recommendations? cautionary tales? effect on 12 v battery?

    I've been running two fridges, a fish tank, some LED lights and a couple of phone chargers off a 750W (continuous) inverter through the last two PG&E blackouts without issue. The most the inverter ever showed as draw was 50%, so ~375W. Model 3 SR+. I did turn on Smart Summon Suspend so that...

    What’s coming next in V11?

    I can't help but wonder whether the lack of SMS integration, Android Auto, Car Play is all because in the grand vision they don't have a long term future. Once the car is FSD you can check your phone to your hearts content.
