    Autopilot Lane Change to the Left - Not

    I had a similar problem since 2019.20.4.2. It happens when I make a right turn onto a local road with 2 lanes in each direction. AP sees only 1 lane and no longer recognizes the left lane until I change lanes manually on that road. It works after that. Please check if your car sees multiple...

    Car not going to sleep + excessive vampire drain while connected to wifi

    Yes. I also had the same issue with 2019.8.4 and now 2019.8.5. Thanks for posting the workaround.

    2016 Model S - no sentry update

    I'm in the same boat but does anyone know if the upgrade to the FSD hardware (AP 3.0) will enable these features?

    FSD reduced to $2000

    Thanks. Didn't realize.

    FSD reduced to $2000

    Just noticed it on my 2016 Model S account page. I'm thinking of getting it, mostly to upgrade the chip from 2.0 to 3.0. Anyone else?

    Free supercharging is currently enabled

    Mine says Free Supercharging until May 29, 2019. I guess they added 3 months free. I purchased on 12/14/18 without a referral code (my error).

    Did we pay more for tax incentive in 2018

    The car that cost you $60000 - $7500 = $52500 then now costs $52000 - $3750 = $48250, a difference of $4250 less now. However the difference really depends on how you value EAP. In order to get the same feature set you need to include FSD which would bring the new cost to $57000 - $3750 =...

    A used 2016 and above Model S or a new Model 3

    The M3 is a better buy than the 2016 MS in my opinion. If you intend to use EAP, the 3 has a faster chip and EAP performs better. Also, it appears that the 3 is ready for supercharger V3 and May get a speed bump soon. We might get more details this week. However, if those two aspects were...

    Newbie confusion

    I took delivery in December and there were no issues with my car. If you need more time to inspect the car you should discuss it with the delivery specialist. Keep in mind that most of the complaints were related to software and not blemishes. However, any blemishes will be fixed for free...

    The new fantasy sales framework will fail

    I do consider myself to be a typical car buyer. Like most buyers, I always took a test drive mainly because it was part of the buying process. I think most buyers have already made up their minds about a car and take the test drive as a formality. They don't need to drive a car to know they...

    The new fantasy sales framework will fail

    You certainly have the right to your opinion but I mostly disagree with your assessment. I took delivery of my wife's Model 3 in December and the changes Tesla is making would have had no affect on my purchase experience. I did not test drive the car and the ordering, loan and trade-in were...

    Should We Be Concerned?

    I have no concern about this move and I can understand why Tesla did it. However, store closures in any industry usually signals trouble for the company so I understand why some are concerned. I believe this is a good move for Tesla and I expect other startups to follow the same sales model.

    SPINOFF: Did you test drive a Tesla before buying yours?

    Yes for the S. No for the 3. While considering the S, I had never seen a Tesla up close so a test drive seemed necessary since the car was so different. After that, a test drive of any future Teslas seemed unnecessary.

    “Standard Range” = 75D? Is a range upgrade coming?

    Put another way, the RWD Model 3 range was software-limited to 310 mi. That limit is being removed.

    Battery capacity increasing

    This probably means that your lifetime watt hours per mile (whm) is below average. Estimated range is capacity/whm so if your whm decreases over time then your estimated range increases. Lots of factors affect whm so your estimated range might fluctuate.

    Aero Wheels and Indicated Range

    According to the article below, your actual range should increase immediately if you switch to aero wheels. An increase of 31 miles at 75 mph is significant. The rated range would also adjust but gradually, not immediately. Rated range is calculated based on your average wh/mi. As this...

    Software Update 2018.42.x

    It made absolutely no sense to me either. But it works. The mechanic also said that it was more noticeable on my car because i switched from the standard 19" to 21" arachnids, which are more open. Perhaps someone with more technical knowledge can chime in here.

    Software Update 2018.42.x

    I have the same recurring issue in my 2016 MS. A Tesla mechanic said it't a buildup of break dust because my brakes aren't used often. To fix it, I occasionally have to hit the breaks hard a few times.

    Tesla Whistleblower releases VINs with alleged punctured battery cells - Who's got a 3 on the list?

    Didn't he work at the gigafactory? If so, how could he possibly know which battery packs had bad cells? In turn, how could he know which cars they wound up in? This sounds like 100% FUD.

    Software Update Advice

    The newest version is 2018.26 3bbd9fd which I got today on my 2016 S75. The only change in the release notes is minor bug fixes. I'm not sure what would change on your 2013 model but my EAP seems to no longer veer to the left when the left lane marker is missing at intersections but I will...

    Slowing for a sign, just bot the one I'd expect.

    Wow! I thought I was bugging' but maybe not. Two days ago I was approaching an intersection with a traffic light and the light turned yellow. I was about to disengage AP as I normally would when the car slowed down on it's own. There were no cars ahead of me and no cars in the intersection...

    Non-freeway AP speed restriction returns

    I also noticed this change for the first time today. A stretch of road that the gps previously showed a speed limit of 55 today displayed 45. The speed limit on that stretch was reduced about 3 years ago. Another stretch of road today displayed the speed limit for the first time. The strange...

    Software update 2018.6.1

    I got the update to 2018.16.1 today and the one thing I noticed is that EAP is now limited to speed limit +5 on some streets that were not restricted yesterday.

    Switched to spiders and they are awesome! They totally change the look of the car.

    Help me understand this AP feature

    Not sure but it could be because of regulations or because AP is not yet automated enough. With the warnings on, AP is technically level 2 autonomy but with warnings off it's level 3. Level 2 allows auto steer and speed control for up to 1 minute but level 3 removes this restriction...

    Nag reduced with 2017.46

    This was the same with 2017.42. Any input like changing lanes or speed tells autopilot that the driver is active. It also works if you keep downward pressure on the steering wheel. There's a video of a guy with a water bottle strapped to the steering wheel and the nag messages were...

    FSD upgrade purchase option removed?

    EAP and FSD are gone from mine so it appears that all upgrades were taken down. Labor Day sale coming, perhaps? We could only hope.

    Slower supercharging on Model 3

    To my eyes it appears that the starting point of the graphic is 25%. This makes sense because (25%) 55 + 130 = 185 (84%) for the smaller battery. For the larger battery that same logic would be 78 + 170 = 248 (80%). This is on par with the Model S.

    New S60 or used 2014 S85?

    I had a loaded P85 loaner last week and I missed my 2016 S60. The newer model is a bit quieter and handles better, IMHO. Make sure you test drive a 2014 before buying.
