    Supercharger - College Station, TX - Texas Avenue South

    Any progress update for this week from anyone by chance? We have a trip coming up soon and would be fantastic to not have to stop in Giddings finally!

    Safety Score: parameter dependence

    No. I was on maybe a 3% incline if that.
  3. Q

    Safety Score: parameter dependence

    The issue, for me at least, is that regen braking will cause a hard brake event! There is no way that the force of regen should be considered a hard brake. Was going 30 mph and let off accelerator dropping me to 20 before approaching a school zone. That event cause a HB for me. Didn’t use the...

    Experiences with Auto Lane Change (Safe? Risky?)

    Appreciate the feedback and responses. Most seem similar. I've messed with it a bit more - another thing that really annoys me is there is virtually no delay between the car activating the blinker and then initiating the move.. This happens when I have it set to change lanes when I signal the...

    Experiences with Auto Lane Change (Safe? Risky?)

    So we decided to go ahead and purchase the add-on FSD package for our Model 3 a few days ago and I've been testing out the Auto lane change feature as that feels like the biggest advantage of this package at the moment. I am curious as to what others have experienced using this feature without...

    2020.4.10.1??

    Unfortunately there's a LOT more to getting FSD feature complete than stop signs and stop lights. For one, merging is horrendous right now. Stop lights on highways IMO are going to be another problem as the camera can only see so far and if your driving 65 mph that light comes up fast...

    MSM with Carbon Fiber Door Handle Wraps?

    Curious if anyone with a Midnight Silver Metallic has done a chrome delete of their door handles with the carbon fiber wrap and if so can yo9u post? I'm thinking about doing it, but wanted to see it. The nikola pictures only have it on the white model 3.
  8. Q

    Would you pay for a la carte options in model 3?

    Completely agree! I had been thinking this exact same thing for a few weeks now — how I wish they would separate out the FSD package options. 7k is a lot to dump out for it .. especially after the sale of the car when it’s not in you payments.

    Spotify Album / Artist sorting??

    Ah. That’s helpful. Useful until it gets some tweaks. Or maybe that’s why it is the way it is :)
  10. Q

    Spotify Album / Artist sorting??

    Yeah - the implementation really seems to suck IMO... and I guess this is somewhat one Spotify here but I'm finding the lack of ability to Like / Dislike songs to train it's suggestions for me to be a big pain point as well. As an Apple Music subscriber I'm finding Spotify to really be behind...

    Range Decrease since version 2019.40.50

    not sure if this is entirely correct. P3D does only come with 20” wheels, however prior to this update I believe ALL models had their estimated range coefficient modifies to better account for wheel sizes. You also have P3D- variants. For me this change increased my estimated range because it...

    I'm Driving, and Car Thinks It's in Park!

    I asked the tech this very question about the bug report. He told me the report does get to them but it's like a stack of papers and unless you schedule a service request it does get to much attention. As for the service request options - I just select whichever most closely matches the actual...
  13. Q

    I'm Driving, and Car Thinks It's in Park!

    Sure thing. I would suggest -- if it happens again create a bug report as soon as it happens in the car -- Hit the voice button and say "bug report < brief description of issue >". This will create a time stamp and dump a number of logs bundles for Tesla. Afterwards when you have time, create...

    TeslaFi - Battery Degradation Reports (upload your data)

    Mine M3P- range has gone up since purchase. From 311 to 317.
  15. Q

    Anybody care to estimate cost to replace battery out of warranty?

    WOW. $13.5k is much higher than I was expecting it would be... This doesn't fair well for a replacement when the time comes and may even outweigh the savings in gas over the years... I was expecting $7-8k
  16. Q

    I'm Driving, and Car Thinks It's in Park!

    Both of these seem VERY similar to the issue/bug I've been experiencing. With me, it's been when using AP in stop n go highway traffic while the web browser is open. The browser becomes extremely sluggish and then randomly I will see the "Park Assist" flash on the screen, followed by a quick...

    Spotify Album / Artist sorting??

    I just signed up for a 6 month Spotify trial to test it out (while I hopefully wait for Apple Music integration). I migrated all my albums and artists from Apple Music into my Spotify trial.... Looking at the albums and artists in my Model 3, they are a jumbled mess! Is there really NO way to...

    AutoPilot and merging traffic

    Well said WarEagleX - and really that was my jist. It’s not there yet and needs to continue to evolve (which I have no doubt it will).
  20. Q

    Range Decrease since version 2019.40.50

    Those that saw a loss in range - this is most likely due to the update now taking tire size in account for range estimations. Check the tire size in your settings. If you change the tire size you can see the range get modified right after. this isn’t a “range loss”. It is more accurately...

    Park k assist flashing while in AP?

    Installed the 2020.4.1 code last night. This evening on my way home while in AP — 4 different times while in stop and go traffic I would get a “park assist unavailable” message flash on the screen. A yellow steering wheels top left - then all the “indicators” at the top of the screen would flash...

    Can I schedule cabin preconditioning for both morning and evening?

    You can't do this via the car that I am aware of..... however... you can through TeslaFi.com.

    Reason why no Apple Carplay

    Personally I don’t care to have CarPlay, however I would very love to have appleMusic added.

    AutoPilot and merging traffic

    and again... I realize it doesn’t handle merging for crap so yeah I monitor that. That doesn’t change my original point that Tesla needs to work out the kinks with merging traffic. That’s all my main point was.

    AutoPilot and merging traffic

    Haha. Well if you said it with a bit of sarcasm... you’d be right on track. :)
  26. Q

    AutoPilot and merging traffic

    I agree -- I would fully expect the M3 to slow down when there is a vehicle that close and not keep forcing the issue. I am fully aware it's AP and not FSD, however AP stays in the lane and my expectation is that it should handle merging traffic while staying in that lane. If this isn't...
  27. Q

    AutoPilot and merging traffic

    Just got to say — Tesla really needs to work on its allowance of merging traffic when your in AP on the highway. It is a complete AH to people trying to merge on. Almost hit the merging car because AP would keep creeping forward instead of giving the car to the front right of me enough room...

    Purchasing a M3 that's only been supercharged

    I ran across a blog post a while back on one of the first model 3 owners and his experience after already putting 100k miles on the car. He said he has used the super charger network for almost ALL of his charging over those miles and his max range of his performance is down to 302-306 (from the...

    Current Best Music Source Option

    Slacker has been fairly descent for me. I did pay for the mid tier slacker subscription (which was like $30 for a year) mainly because I wanted to be able to access what I thumb up/down. With the built in Tesla slacker service you have no access to the actually account it uses. as mentioned...
  30. Q

    Did recent update change preconditioning?

    Did the recent 50.x change the battery preconditioning when the M3 is set to a schedule departure time? Previously I would have a full bar when leaving in the morning however now it seems I always have 4-6 dots when leaving.

    Only 294 miles displayed range from very first full charge

    by your vin they would know how the vehicle was built and what hardware. Would expect it to be pretty easy for them to map VINs (since the vin code contains the model type) to a default tire size with the latest updates. Now if you change the tire size - you would need to manually modify the...
  32. Q

    Only 294 miles displayed range from very first full charge

    the estimated mileage change is because they adjusted the estimated range based on the tire size so I highly doubt they will fix this in an update as it should be more accurate now. You can see this by going into the settings and changing your tire size temporarily — your range will immediately...

    Sentry Mode - Night time quality?

    What should the night time video quality be on sentry mode videos? Mine is completely dark if it’s dark outside. Is that normal or something I need to have diagnosed?

    Window auto Down/Up with button

    Ive read through most of the manual but for whatever reason this section didn’t stick out to me so I appreciate the post of this section and it did resolve this odd issue. I was focused on there being a setting somewhere which is also why I posted.
  35. Q

    Window auto Down/Up with button

    For some reason my driver side window will not automatically go all the way down or back up with a flick of the window button. All three other windows do however. Is this a setting some where that toggles this feature in/off??

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    Prior to the update I was getting 279 on a 90% charge. 310 at 100%. (My M3 is a month old)
  37. Q

    NEW M3 showing only 310 vs 322

    man average of 420wh/mi at 75mph still seems extremely high to me. My average Wh/mi over the last 140 miles between 50 and 55 degree F is 248. <shrug>
  38. Q

    Range Loss Over Time, What Can Be Expected, Efficiency, How to Maintain Battery Health

    this seems to support what I’m seeing in my P3D- as after the update I’m seeing 282 mile estimated range at 90% charge.
  39. Q

    NEW M3 showing only 310 vs 322

    M3P isn’t rated at 320 it’s rated at 310. 10 degree C you’ll also take a bit of a hit on range due to colder weather. Are you also running with the cabin heater and/or seat heaters on? 420wh/mile sounds high to me - but I’m a P3D- so I don’t have to deal with the 20in tires.

    Since latest update, car is swerving on AP

    Same here. The 1.1 sucked for AP. The 50.1 then 50.5 stabilized AP a lot for me. Hopefully that stays the same with 40.7 that just got installed.
  42. Q

    M3 driving stiff or is it just me.

    tey changing the steering mode to comfort instead of sport. Curious if that makes a difference in the feeling for you. I have mine in sport mode, but to me this thing feels really nimble. If I accelerate hard around a corner it feels like the tail end just float around and comes in line. now...

    Netflix App - Screen Zoom

    Maybe I'm one of the few that had no idea -- but I recently / accidentally discovered that you can PINCH to ZOOM the Netflix app while a movie is playing to get rid of the black borders if you so desire!
  44. Q

    Autopilot Cameras unavailable - resolved

    Also keep in mind that the 40.1+ code enabled warning messages on the sensors saying they are blocked. This is something new and they typically clear themselves once the blocking issue is resolved (typically for me, it's when a truck is passing me on the right or left side).

    No Software Update

    Have you called Tesla Service - or opened a service request in the app? They have the ability to force an update down to a car. If it was mine that was doing this, I would have opened a chat session with service the next day!

    Range Decrease since version 2019.40.50

    It's been stated by a number of people - not all performance models have seen this drop in miles.. mine actually went up a couple of miles. I highly doubt some random models lost access to 5% of the battery. I still have a suspicion this update factors in driving habits to a small degree...
  48. Q

    Driving Home from Pickup—Enough Chargers?

    Agreed. Also keep in mind.... having to actually use the brakes for a short while isn't going to "wear them out" just because the car is heavy. The 90% of your driving with regen braking will well make up for it.

    Wifi - explanation for poor reception?
