    Best methods to trigger parking detection?

    Looks like future owners won’t be able to benefit from some of the experimenting: https://arstechnica.com/cars/2022/10/after-cutting-radar-tesla-now-dropping-ultrasonic-sensors-from-its-evs/

    Best methods to trigger parking detection?

    So for those interested in the outcome of the extra panel, it seems the sensors are more concerned about the things directly in front of the vehicle (probably makes sense). The right side showed red all the way into the garage, but the reported distance to the obstacle seemed to be related to...

    Best methods to trigger parking detection?

    Here’s what I’m going to try. I didn’t realize how obvious the sensor ports are, and it’s clear that as we pass by the ladder, the right-most front sensor passes through the gap in the rings, and then past the ladder entirely and probably cannot “see” the ladder anymore.

    Best methods to trigger parking detection?

    Thanks. The rough location of the sensors shown in the diagram on that page is definitely helpful. I assume from the text that these are the ultrasound detectors (the mention of "if installed" is what makes me wonder)? We're not really relying on the sensors -- I've learned, for example, that...

    Best methods to trigger parking detection?

    We have a small garage with a load bearing post near the center of it that pops up as an obstacle for the parking proximity detectors. We would like to be able to park very close to this on our Midel Y’s right side, to leave more room for the driver to exit. Has anyone had luck with paint or...
