My FSD test route on 12.3.4 continued to trend slightly better than v11 did, though last Friday’s test was during Coachella weekend which is like the rapture in Los Angeles. Traffic was light because half the population was migrating toward the desert. Anyway, still doesn‘t pass the spouse...

Or a million billion trillion dollars!

My HW4 Y just got it. I’ll do my test route tonight.

On a five mile round trip last night FSD: 1. Changed into a lane that ended immediately after the maneuver. 2. Got in the right lane to make a left. 3. Pulled into oncoming traffic to make an illegal left into a parking lot. 4. Tried to make a left turn at a right turn only location. 5...

I’ve been using both modes and yes they are less bad than they were. “Better” is a stretch.

Two and a half years participating in this FSD mess and I’ve determined that what I really want is AP and NoA to be on the FSD stack at which point I would just stop using the city streets stuff. I don’t want it to change lanes without asking but the FSD stack is dramatically smoother on the...

FSD12 will do whatever the hell it wants up to the maximum speed specified. It’ll go 8 in a 45 with no traffic around if it wants and the only way to get around it is to repeatedly goose the accelerator. It’s irritating and it’s making me nauseous.

Put the car in Drive and wait for the little grey steering wheel to show up next to the PRDL icons. Then pull down once on the stalk and once the grey wheel turns blue you’re in FSD.

Mine does this as well and I noticed it most on the 405 S during the recent rain where it was darting around the carpool lane. Super weird.

I’m not sure how to describe it but v12 now fails differently than v11 Version 11 would have never tried to make the turn yesterday where it pulled across three lanes when it couldn’t see one of them. The disengagement would have been because v11 would have frozen in the middle of the...

I did my FSD test route last night. FSD Test Route It performed similary to other versions but this time it confidently pulled straight into oncoming traffic, twice. Once was while it was passing a stopped car on a residential street and the other was during a left turn across a lighted...

I think this was a very bad quarter for deliveries, that Tesla has produced more vehicles than they’ve sold for a while now, and that there are some sort of impediments to the growth story. Then I provided an anecdotal sample of my personal experience with known Tesla customers leaving the...

It’s such a weird position to be in because I, too, often defend the company because there are so many outright falsehoods about Musk and Tesla floating around. That said it’s very easy to pull up actual screenshots and quotes these days straight from the horse’s mouth which project a very...

I’ve been a Tesla champion for about a decade now and have successfully encouraged at least a dozen people to buy the cars. I read something a while back where Elon said that his brother calls him from time to time and says “when you stick the knife in our backs can you just not twist it?”...

There’s how people actually behave and how they “should” behave (define that as you will). A company that’s not Tesla will be getting my next automobile purchase because of very vocal antics from Mr. Musk. That may be noteworthy for investors. Since the company is sitting on like 60,000 unsold...

I have no aversion to using Tesla’s network because it doesn’t follow me around with the car. I certainly hope they build a robust and profitable EV charging network to further adoption. You may be misunderstanding the point of my post. I’m not willing to buy another Tesla automobile because...

Either; I very rarely use fast charging and Tesla has removed the supercharger moat so I’ll use those if/when I need them. The point of my post on this thread is that Elon’s antics have removed the likelihood of me buying another one of his cars. The people in my bubble are often well heeled...

Where I live EVs are about a third of new car sales, the vehicles themselves are no longer any sort of statement. And my F150 is gas, thank you very much ;-)

That’s funny but I probably should have just said “political” hat. I’m a liberal but I wouldn’t want a Biden hat as a car either. I’m under no illusion that the CEOs of other carmakers aren’t also distasteful in this regard, I just don’t want the giant blue shiny object in which I spent a...

You stated this much more effectively than I did. This is exactly how I feel.

That was my first EV, a 1997 GM EV1. Not sure how my being a passionate EV driver for nearly 30 years reduces my credibility but ok.

I haven’t done my test route yet because 12.3.3 feels very similar to the other v12 builds, maybe I’ll do it next week. I might be imagining it but the parking blob animations seem to be in higher resolution.

This probably won’t get a warm reception here but it might be relevant for investors. I’m driving my second Tesla now and will not buy another, specifically because of Elon Musk. He’s turned my car into a MAGA hat and I want to be as far away from the brand as possible. The moment that FSD...

I received 12.3.2.1 on Friday and did my test run. The results can be found here FSD Test During this test route my car pulled straight into the side of perpendicular vehicle in an effort to squeeze into slow traffic at an uncontrolled intersection, it proceeded towards the back of a reversing...

It’s making me a little nauseous.

I’ve got to say the bloom is off the rose for me with v12. It’s quite clearly a completely different system than 11 and it does some stuff amazingly well. That said, last night I had my first honk ever from another motorist in 2.5 years of FSDb because my car decided to fake out a car in an...

Gosh yes, I forgot to comment on this. Several times my car has absolutely dropped anchor for yellow lights with plenty of time left to safely pass. Super weird.

Since you’re new to this, FSD was 90 days from wide deployment when I took delivery of my original car in March of 2018. In summer of 2018 it was going to be “silky smooth” in the next release. “Actually Smart Summon” has a “due date” with the autopilot team of September. September of 2022...

My return commute this evening was pretty amazing in a few spots, doing some ninja moves that had me gasp out loud. Arriving home I offered to take my spouse out to show him, which caught him off guard because he knows how disappointed I have been with FSD and how disgusted I’ve become with...

Weird addendum, I believe the parking blob assist is now a little higher resolution but my chimes no longer work. Nearly made for some exciting parking at work this morning.

I’ve been on the J crew for a while now and I’d like to bring it up one notch. What’s one level up from J?

I have some more thoughts after my test route last night and my commute this morning. There are two major issues in this build, one being the weird speed behavior as mentioned by many and the other being what I think someone referred to as “pump fakes”. The car will feel like it has decided to...

I don’t have time to write much now but 12.3 was a very big improvement on my test route. FSD Test Route The first segment has always been a problem and remains so, which is weird, but it is what it is. The rest of the drive was quite natural except for one major misstep. I didn’t expect...

I just got v12.3 on a HW4 car in Los Angeles. I’ve been doing the FSD thing since (I think) v10.1 and I’ll update my test route spreadsheet tonight. I want to be excited but I’ve been hyped so many times before only to be let down by reality. I’ll let the numbers speak for themselves in a few...

This thread is for the general discussion of the marketplace listing ‘17-‘20 Model 3 Wheel Caps “Pinwheel”. Please add to the discussion here.

All cars without USS, including HW3 cars, are displaying the new parking assist.

I’ve been tracking my FSDb performance since late 2021 and I’ve updated my spreadsheet with 11.4.9. See below. FSD doc

So Mine did exactly this from the beginning of 2023 until one of the last firmware releases. It would slam on the brakes after misidentifying target vehicles in adjacent lanes. It was so bad that I stopped using even legacy autopilot altogether.

The high fidelity thing actually gave me confidence in curb rendering and encouraged me to crunch my splitter and curb my wheel last Sunday. I’d rather have zero expectations of a capability rather than a fuzzy and inaccurate representation of what the car sees. After that incident I don’t have...

I thought my USS car did the ring but it’s been several months so I might be misremembering. My Vision car never had a ring that clear and stable.

The 11.4.9 update seems to have entirely cured my car’s habit of slamming on the brakes for cars erroneously highlighted in adjacent lanes, both on FSDb and legacy autopilot. I’ve only tried it on my regular commute route so far but I’m really thrilled. I don’t care about FSDb much and doubt...

Yours is working as designed and your friend’s car probably has ultrasonic parking sensors (USS). Doesn’t mean it’s good but nothing is broken; we’re all in the same boat.

The thing that trips me up is that this parking assist is mostly useful if you’re futzing around with the screen and moving the scene around while simultaneously parking. The overhead blob view is only marginally useful and nowhere near as handy as the inches/cm display of my USS cars. Maybe...

I’ve had this for a week or so now and it’s a very Tesla solution to a long-solved problem. My previous Tesla and the three cars before it all had USS and it was a known quantity. I greatly prefer USS to this high fidelity thing which, while it looks extremely cool, has been only minimally...

I find the behavior alarming; it feels like it’s going to pop over into an adjacent lane with passing traffic.

Drizzling in SoCal this afternoon and the wipers on 10.4.9 still don’t activate against a grey sky. At least they haven’t dry wiped on this update.

1) It’s broken. Tapping on songs in playlists doesn’t work properly and just reverts to an unrelated track. 2) Consider using the built-in app when they get it sorted, the sound quality is considerably better than via Bluetooth.

Tidal is completely borked for me on 44.30.1 and I hope that’s one thing they fixed in these later builds.

I did my first commute this morning on the new FSDb build and it’s an improvement. This version has reduced the number of times I need to press the accelerator to overcome false cut-ins by at least half. Still largely useless but…less useless? Progress in any event.
