    Tiny paint scratch on my new model Y- can Tesla help with repair?

    I stopped worrying about scratches a long time ago 😃

    Opinion: what I think Tesla should do to "solve" FSD

    I don't mind the mirrors folding in. Don't need them until I get in the car anyway. Even then, don't need them. But, yeah, nice party trick but too slow and clunky to be of real use

    Charging to 80% v 100%

    Yeah, 80% is plenty for that daily commute. I do charge to 100% when I have a longer than 300 mile trip. About once a month

    New FSD v12 automatic speed setting works pretty well

    I found that disabling it and then increasing the off-set greatly helps. I'm at +20, but you'll need to experiment to come up with an off-set that suits your driving style

    New FSD v12 automatic speed setting works pretty well

    That was my first experience and I disabled after. Could have been something else. I'll give it another try

    Opinion: what I think Tesla should do to "solve" FSD

    Improvements are coming very quickly now. Hopefully, your issue in that area will be fixed soon

    New FSD v12 automatic speed setting works pretty well

    Stepping on the gas with the auto off-set does nothing for me (again, I haven't tried it on v12.3.3). Unless you brake, FSD controls the speed. I don't believe that the AI stack works like that. It doesn't "remember" what you've done on your drives. Tesla decides what data is considered proper...

    New FSD v12 automatic speed setting works pretty well

    Haven't tried it on v12.3.3, but I didn't like the feature on v12.3.1. Too slow under most circumstances pissing off Jersey drivers behind me

    Opinion: what I think Tesla should do to "solve" FSD

    I've had a very favorable experience with FSD over the last couple of years. However, there are locations where the vehicle behaves erratically. I usually disengage for those areas and don't normally try again until the next update (improvements, even from the neural system, will only come with...

    Would it be O.K to leave Model 3 unplugged for 5 weeks?

    Why the 70% or the 55% charge limits? 100% will provide greater peace of mind, especially if it take the OP hits a snag and gets delayed. Charging to 100% a few times over the life of the car will not have any meaningfully affect on battery life

    Model Y rear seat gap and tilted right.

    Agree. Even in a $200k car I don't think I would have noticed this detail. This goes to show how good cars have gotten (not just Tesla) in the last 30 years

    Can I share a charger and have my neighbor bill me?

    Agree and I wouldn't do it. If there is any substantial property damage or loss of life, you will be part of the legal nightmare

    3.5 year MYLR update 179.7k miles

    Good thing it's not a 9-5 job or your commute would be 6 hrs/day lol

    Improvement ideas for Superchargers - and who to contact?

    Carry an air pump, windshield washer fluid, Windex, and paper towels/micro towels in the frunk. Most charging stations that I've been to are in strip malls or shopping centers, so restrooms and a quick bite are readily avail

    FSD 12 and highway merge

    I've been using FSD almost 2 years and this highway merge behavior is rare, but does happen at specific exits and can be a very uncomfortable experience. NJ Turnpike N exit 17 to Lincoln Tunnel is an extreme example with the car crossing 2-3 lanes within 1 sec at 60+ MPH 😬. I normally disengage...

    Tesla Model 3 early termination of lease issue

    Yeah agree, that's what I was getting at. Find another bank

    Tesla Model 3 early termination of lease issue

    On lease transfers, many leasing companies require that the original leaser remain on the contract and be ultimately responsible for the lease. Not sure if that's the case here..

    Trains displayed as trucks

    The rendered images re-assures the driver that the vehicle is aware of it's surroundings. This integral for FSD acceptance in the market. At least until we get to L4 or L5

    Trains displayed as trucks

    The display can indicate anything as long as the car knows not to go there. I don't think it's a priority to have an exact representation at this point

    SLIDING SUNROOF

    Yeah, this. I found them annoying and hardly ever used them, but for some reason I always had to have them

    Using only the camera turn signal when changing lanes

    I think this is all just a matter of adapting and getting used to doing things in a different way. I've been driving for over 40 years and still find the transition from mirrors to cameras challenging. My kids however are a different story, I don't think they know what the mirrors are there for lol

    Using only the camera turn signal when changing lanes

    You can bring up the rear/side cam views anytime, but it's a pain looking away from the road to find the button on the screen. Specially when you're thinking about a lane change. I believe that the revamped M3+ has a dedicated steering wheel button that bring up the 3 cams

    Anyone unhappy with update 2023.44.30.6?

    Yeah, alternate routes is pretty awesome. But, I only get that at the start of the drive. Doesn't continually update unless there's a delay in the existing route of >10 mins (my setting)

    Anyone unhappy with update 2023.44.30.6?

    On 2023.44.30.5.1, but prob has most of the new features... Nag are super annoying, bu got used to them Love the new back up cam lines (unless they were there before and I never noticed) map display with traffic lights and stop signs help a lot Overall FSD experience has improved substantially...

    Losing 10-15 miles per night when parked in garage

    Specially in Newark! I keep it on everywhere since some idiot dinged my left rear door the 2nd day I had the car. Unfortunately, I had sentry off and by the time I got back there was no one parked next to me

    Losing 10-15 miles per night when parked in garage

    When I travel and park at the airport I expect a drain of approx 10-15 miles/day. The biggest draw by far is the Sentry, followed by climate. I make sure that I have enough charge for the time that I'll be away. But not turning on Sentry will help significantly
