    FSD 12.3.3 first drive - safe, super boring

    DblOSmith, I had a similar experience. Keeping it pithy... I agree, "for now, FSD is a nice party trick, but not a useful tool." The root of the problem seems to be that the FSD computer can't "see" well enough at distance in all directions to determine when it's truly safe to make a maneuver...

    Tesla Model 3 Coilover Installation (Does this seem reasonable?)

    I installed the MSS adjustable height performance spring kit on my M3P in about 5 hours. With a lift and all the right tools. I'm good, but not a professional. 4-6 hours for a full coilover install isn't unreasonable, particularly if you want a specific ride height after it's done. It's a...

    2022.24.8 and automatic wipers

    Unfortunately I had the update setting to automatic when that 2022 update came out to remove use of the radar sensors. I've since changed that setting so I always review all updates prior to implementation. I would bet that if all of us pre-2022 owners got together we could win a class action...

    2022.24.8 and automatic wipers

    I'm saying the wipers are forced into Auto in basic cruise control as well as Autopilot/Autosteer. I don't use autopilot, but I use cruise control every day. Also, my car is an early 2021, which doesn't need the wipers for any functions. Why do you folks defend when Telsa implements things...

    2022.24.8 and automatic wipers

    My car has radar. There needs to be a way for cars with radar to turn it off.

    2022.24.8 and automatic wipers

    It's doing it with just CC engaged.

    windshield wipers come on when I go into Cruise Control.

    I have a similar ceramic treatment on the windshield and live in Oregon. Rainy season will be starting soon and have the same complaint about the wipers. It's ridiculous really. My Model 3 Performance was 'perfect' when I received it in February 2021. Every OTA update since that day has made...

    2022.24.8 and automatic wipers

    Received the 2022.24.8 update last weekend and in general, like the changes. Except for one. For some reason now, whenever basic cruise control is engaged the windshield wipers are forced to 'Auto'. It will not let the driver turn them off. This is a problem, as I had a ceramic coating...

    Chill vs Sport in a 3P+

    Thank you for the support. You are exactly correct. In the steering mode, there is already a Chill, STANDARD, and Sport. We're only asking for the same 3 options for the throttle response. And as for safety. Gearcruncher, you make no sense regarding safety or ease of implementation. We...

    Chill vs Sport in a 3P+

    Sellout, you're exactly correct. Why not have the pedal "Tip-in" be adjustable on a scale from 1-10" via the interface screen. It's a completely electronic throttle system. Any multiplier or restrictor could be used and it would take nearly no effort from Tesla to implement. It's amazing how...

    V11 quick controls toggle?

    WhiteWi: regardless of whether or not you personally feel that the changes impact safety... you actually inadvertently justified all of our complaints. They completely overhauled the interface and the only positive thing you can point out is "Love how open pages are fast and easy to completely...

    V11 quick controls toggle?

    Thanks for trying to look at the bright-side, lawdawg... but for safe driving every "enhancement" made driving less safe. Here are my top examples: 1) Fan Speed on HVAC controls. Control function used to be identical to the Temperature Control. Simple left-right arrow with fan speed in the...

    V11 quick controls toggle?

    Something happened where someone new (I'm guessing) got authority to make changes to the interface who has no business doing that. I've owned my M3P for 9 wonderful months. All previous updates have been either "additions" to the controls interface or some other improvement in the way an item...

    V11 questions

    It's Christmas Day and Tesla... previously my favorite car of the past 30 years of car ownership... has ruined it! The more I think about this interface change, the more irritated I get. They should have shown a preview of the changes and ASKED if I wanted to have it installed. TESLA, either...

    V11 questions

    Thank you Penguino007. I am also very disappointed with this update. Not a single thing I like better than before. Dislike everything you mentioned... and that the TPMS information is now under the "Service" menu. Really? I mean WTF? It was great before. Just quick swipe of the bottom left...

    M3P tire size / adjustment?

    Kaz93... yeah, unless you are taking the car to the track, for daily driving, tire wear, and general efficiency, 235/35-R20 all the way around is preferred... and the factory setup on the M3 Performance. But as Gauss Guzzler notes, you probably have wider wheels on the rear than the front. So...

    21 performance cold weather improvements.

    Anyone else notice a change in the throttle response on the Model 3 Performance in Sport Mode? I've always liked the throttle response in Sport Mode as it wasn't overly aggressive. However, with update 36.5.1, the initial tip-in feels much more aggressive. Not a fan. There's also no 'Normal'...
