    Has this happened to anyone....scary

    Computer crash and reboot. Its disconcerting when it happens, but all of the safety systems run outside of the MCU or with backup systems so you will never lose steering, braking, etc. It's pretty rare, only happened to me once in 3 years. I didn't get the squeal, but I wasn't on a call when...

    Yes you can. Just "drag" the top edge of the music app all the way down the screen.

    A thread for people with no problems

    P85D 20,000 miles, 18 months, no issues despite my continued enthusiastic driving a P_D car! A set of tires is a cheap price to pay for having so much fun.

    Model 3 New Front Sensor/Camera?

    I was browsing a post over on Electrek and noticed this. I didn't see an existing thread for this, so I apologize if its here somewhere already. Is the Model 3 getting a new camera in the front fascia? Or some alternate sensor that can't be behind the plastic like the radars? This is not in...

    How to avoid a runaway condition

    I was thinking about this thread today, and there actually is one redeeming point to it, and that's if you suffer a medical emergency while driving. As a driver you should ensure that your passenger knows they can press and hold the park button to stop the car. In most ICE cars, the passenger...

    What's wrong with the Tesla regen? Or my car? (Chart)

    Great chart, but it seems like not a real-world driving test. How many times in daily driving can you decelerate from 75mph to 0mph in 34 seconds with no other factors (no other cars in the area, no change in elevation, etc.)? I think your first chart is more realistic to what people...

    In reverse, suddenly shifts to Park

    Happened to me the other day. I was rolling back out of a parking spot (no creep, just gravity) with no press of the accelerator. After about 5 ft, the car shifted to park. I think it's a safety thing to prevent unsupervised rolling. Hasn't happened again since, but normally I use the...

    Yesterday my scheduled 11pm charge didn't start on time. Anyone have this happen? Thanks to the TeslaFi log, I can see that my car was not charging, and decided to go to sleep at 12:18am this morning. It woke itself up at 2:59am and started charging at 3:00am exactly. It wasn't enough time...

    Firmware 8.0

    Here's a hypothesis regarding everyone's experience with Autosteer on 8.0... We know that the system was re-engineered to start using the radar as a primary input source. What if that just means that the fleet learning has to re-learn all of the map tiles because the dataset is fundamentally...

    Has your garage door attacked your car?

    The issue to watch out for is when you do something different than just pulling in or pulling out each day. For example, lets say you have a decently long driveway. You pull into the driveway and stop just short of the GPS trigger. Your garage is open as you putter around doing garage stuff...

    TeslaFi.com

    I've been using the site for about a month and as far as i can tell my car has never slept. I have Energy Saving = OFF, which according to the manual should still allow the car to sleep 10p-5a. I have Always Connected unchecked. A couple of days ago I changed my Tesla PW to void any tokens...

    Firmware 8.0

    i'm on 8.0 and the app/window behavior takes some getting used to. Nav wants to "sticky" on top. If you don't have Nav open it will open in the top. If you do have Nav open, clicking another app will open it on the bottom instead of the top. To make Nav go away, you have to swap it to the...

    Firmware 8.0

    Interesting I thought he meant 3 "tries" like warn -> ignore and get the beep -> hold the wheel again -> hands off -> warn -> ignore and get the beep -> hold the wheel again -> hands off -> warn -> ignore and get the beep -> you're out. What it really is, is one long no-hold sequence with...

    Apparently I just needed to make a comment.... updating now (from .31). Thanks Elon!

    Firmware 8.0

    I think we hit another snag... ev-fw has been stalled at 52 and teslafi stalled at 32 for a while.

    Firmware 8.0

    Is it unusual that "8.0" is 2.36.106 and 7.1 was 2.36.31? Really only a sub-dot release? Does that mean almost everything except the final UI has been living under the covers in the code for a while?

    Firmware 7.1

    Based on this post by @511keV in another thread, I think 8.0 is at least a week out. If it takes 3 days to get 2.36.31 pushed to 25% of the fleet, that means ~9 more days to finish that push. Are they throttling due to the load on their servers to compile the patch for each car? If they are...

    Might as well go to bed. you are getting 2.36.31

    Were you already on 2.36.31?

    Firmware 7.1

    Same issue with school zones. The car can't detect "when children are present" (yet) so be prepared to slow quickly to 30 (5 over the 25).

    Suggestions for Autosteer Learning

    I don't suppose there is any way to explicitly provide feedback/suggestions to the Tesla Autonomous Driving team, is there? If not I'll just hope that someone keeps an eye on the threads here and passes along the info. Had a scenario today that seems like it needs a new "rule" in the logic. I...

    My friend's model X crashed using AP yesterday

    Not defending the driver at all, but I thought it was interesting he claimed to have used autosteer for 600km earlier in the trip. So he wasn't an inexperienced user of the system. He should have been familiar by that point as to when the steering is less perfect and needs more attention...

    Firmware 7.1

    As I'm learning, most dot releases aren't improving the autosteer code itself. I think what people are experiencing is the map tiles are getting better, which are apparently continuously loaded. So when 10 drivers have driven a particular lane on a particular road with autosteer, it probably...

    The service center parking lots are going to be totally jammed the day 8.0 is released to the wild! I'll be there for sure. :)

    Firmware 7.1

    Maybe someone with more autopilot experience can tell me it this old behavior, new behavior, or just my imagination. I didn't see any reference to it in the threads I searched. I was driving with autosteer in moderate traffic. The gap closed enough that the autopilot switched from blue lanes...

    What's on your screen?

    teslapage.com (gauges only) on top, music on bottom. Would love to see redesign of the music app to be more visually elegant. Too much dead space on that tab as it is. ...unless when navigating.

    Is this a normal amount of time to charge on a supercharger?

    First trip with a supercharger today. Oxnard was great, no issues. Pulled into Atascadero and charging was way less so I started looking here. I was getting 90a. Most stalls were full. I'm at #2A and there were cars in 1B and 2B. Interestingly when 1B left, my charge rate went up to...
