    Steering Wheel Safety

    But WHY don’t critics of Tesla auto pilot ever mention this safety feature?

    Steering Wheel Safety

    Why is it that whenever I see a documentary on automatic electric cars, when they refer to Tesla they show some guy sleeping behind the wheel, driving his car down the freeway and they never mentioned that Tesla has the added safety benefit of requiring drivers using auto pilot to always have...

    2016 Model S purchased with FSD get free camera upgrades?

    I know I’m a little late to the party, but … I got tired of waiting for an invitation to have my 2017S refitted with complimentary camera upgrades, so I just scheduled the installation from my app. Low and behold, I received a confirmation that my cameras will be upgraded later this month. I’ll...

    FSD Beta

    I currently have FSD, but I have not chosen at this time to enroll in FSD beta. Is there a downside to not having FSD Beta? My understanding is that although I have chosen to not enroll in FSD Beta, I will still get the full benefits of FSD when it is fully implemented. Is this correct? If...

    Complimentary camera upgrade

    After much begging, pleading (and occasional threatening), I have finally been promised installation of complimentary upgrade cameras on my 2017S this month. My question is what performance differences should I notice with my new cameras - especially regarding the side-view mirrors and a traffic...

    Paint color

    I need to touch up a paint chip on my red 2017S. What is the RED color Name or code for my model year?

    School zones

    I would like to see Tesla FSD recognize reduced speed in school zones. Even though it would require the software to be sensitive to certain time zones which vary by city and location, it would at least notify the driver to pay attention to his speed and determine if it needed to be reduced.

    Model s navigation location incorrect

    I haven’t had that prob with my 2017SFSDMCU2HW3, but I had a weird situation today with my GPS - the directions on the screen were correct, but the voice guidance must’ve been drunk or high - her turn directions weren’t even in the same geo area and didn’t match up with the screen directions. I...

    Viewing Teslacam videos via WiFi on my iPhone, ipad

    Thanks, but I was asking about viewing it on WiFi, not physically plugging the usb drive into my computer. Is there a WiFi thumb drive I can use so I can view the files without removing the drive from the car.

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    UPDATE: My service tech agrees that I AM entitled to the cameras update, but there appears to be a software glitch in their system which stops my VIN from being populated to the list of eligible cars. They have now escalated the problem to a software engineer. 🤞🏻🙏🏻

    Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

    Count me as deprioritized, too.😖 Tesla continues to refuse to upgrade my cameras in spite of the fact that I purchased FSD in May 2017 even though I have been upgrade to AP2/HW3 and MCU2. I have decided not to participate in the FSD Beta - could that be a problem? What steps can I take to...

    Music section selection

    Now that I’m running v.11 2022.8.2 on my 2017S75MCU2HW3, (“legacy” portrait oriented screen) my music/entertainment section no longer has the “phone” icon conveniently located on the left allowing me to play Bluetooth music and audiobooks from my phone. The phone icon is now on the far right of...

    Charging amperage

    Sometimes when this happens, I get a message on my dash to unplug and replug the charger. Why?

    Charging amperage

    From time to time I’ll notice that my 2017S won’t charge at a full 40 amps, and only charge at 30. Other than charging time, is there any other downside to this problem? What could be causing it?

    Running v. 11 on Model S - changes and related questions

    2017S75MCU2HW3 - I’m running v. 11 2022.8.2 and don’t notice any change in the main (quick) controls menu. Is that because I have a pre-2021 legacy screen? I do have a few questions however: 1. How do I arrange the entertainment sources on the screen? In particular there is no longer a “phone”...

    Summon beta

    I’ve been waiting 5 years since I bought my 2017S for Summon to mature from beta so I’ll be able to enter my garage, overcoming a slight incline and garage lip. Any hope for me? 😩

    What benefits do y’all anticipate from the oft-rumored HW4?

    No Blind Spot Video or Light show

    If blindspot cameras only exist on new MCU3, post 2020, cars, how are those older cars able to join the FSD Beta program?
  23. aleagle

    No Blind Spot Video or Light show

    Thanks. Is that because blind spot cameras only work with the new MCU3?

    No Blind Spot Video or Light show

    My 2017S75MCU2HW3 is updated to software v. 11 2022.8.2; however I can’t access blind spot video from the autopilot menu, and I can’t play light show. What am I missing? Do I need the upgraded cameras?

    FSD Beta Program Basics

    Diplomat33 stated that I would join FSD beta by a double tap on the stalk. I do this already to enter AP already, but I don’t want to use FSD beta. How can I be sure that I will not be put in the beta program without knowing?

    Software update confusion

    I recently upgraded to MCU2 and noted the software version was 2022.4.5.3. After I got the car home I saw that there was a new update available, and after I installed it my app showed my recent update as 2021.4.3! I was perplexed. Then I received notice of a new update which I installed and my...

    Tesla App Not Working … Again

    It is actually NOT a function of the phone. It IS a function of the cellular unit in the car. I am hoping that this, too, will be resolved next week when the MCU2 and HW3 are retrofitted allowing the use of 5G. 🤞🏻🙏🏻 I welcome any additional relevant replies concerning 5G. TIA

    Tesla App Not Working … Again

    I have been unable to connect to my iPhone app but I have a workaround (kinda) - do a scroll wheel reset and drive around for a few miles. My car eventually picks up a new cell tower signal and rectified itself. Hopefully the MCU2 will obviate the need for this with 5G🙏🏻🤞🏻

    My bad! The HW3 is free. MCU2 is $1,500. Wishful thinking - Freudian slip. 🥴. So why don‘t I qualify for free camera upgrades?
