This happened to my 2017 Model S on today's update 2022.28.2 Anyone know of a definitive fix?

Did the problem ever return? I am reading threads on this issue, but the fixes mentioned are different

What happened to get this fixed? My 2017 Model S just got this same problem. Was it just a headlight replacement?

So I am waay back on 36.2.4 and just got an update, but it added no features. Any tricks to force an update to current 40 ?

This did not work for me right now.

Thanks for the detail @Az_Rael. A very similar thing just happened to me yesterday. Although I was on a surface street and I ran over what looks like a muffler. I had 1 second to react so rather than swerve or hard brake, I just hoped the lump metal I saw in the road was shorter than my...

That can be a strong feeling. I once took a $35,000 USD loss on a house in less than 2 years. My Pixel 3 phone was $899 and a few months later it was $200 less and now, a few months later $200 less than that. I guess it is always a gamble in buying, I just hope what I bought comes to fruition...

Welp, I took the plunge and purchased. Thanks the all the advice and perspective, TMC. To the future!

OP here . . . I see the $5,000 as the cost for the new computer, not necessarily for the software upgrades. I guess I should price out a new car compared to the car I bought and see what the difference is to find out if $5,000 is too expensive.

What are ALC and NOA?

I have had a couple of instances of phantom breaking mostly around the shadows on bridges. However, I think enhanced autopilot does very well. Humorously, my wife says it centers the car in the lane on the freeway better than I do as I tend to drive a little off-center to the right while I'm in...

Yes, I do. I love enhanced autopilot and use it all of the time. My motivation for buying full self driving now is to avoid a price increase later. Which Elon Musk has stated on Twitter.

Yep, the possibility of a later price reduction has me on the fence. I think back, tho, to my first Macintosh SE/30 purchase, with software and printer was about $5k . . . in 1989. That was a good investment in my future. Not sure where this purchase might lead me! :D

Good points. I bought my Model 3 outright with some inheritance money, so I can afford the extra.

After watching the April 22 "Autonomy Day" videos, I became a much stronger believer, for sure.

Leaning towards taking the $5K plunge to upgrade my Model 3 mid-range with EAP I bought last week in December 2018. Love autonomous driving and use it whenever possible. Arguments for and against?

@JamesBLondon - Do you still have it and how much?

We feel the same. The BMW i3 was better since you could actually schedule it. How do we turn off "smart" preconditioning completely so it never runs?

I tried my snap ring pliers but there was not enough force in the spring to hold on to the bolt. Bought a pair of bent-nose pliers, but the only ones I could find at the hardware store on a Saturday night we 45-degree angle without really pointy ends. Those did not work. Anyone willing to sell...

The crazy screws underneath do not do that, they are for the plate bracket.

Optimistic headline. You made it sound like 280 cars 'broke records' . . . clever.

Thanks for all these tips . . . I will try later this week on my new MS75. The "dealer" would not entertain removing it or helping, but I am in California which requires a front plate. I have never in my 40 years of driving had one, tho! My question is why Tesla uses this kind of security screw...

Thanks. Are you both getting the exact number of inches set in the car when you use this feature?

I have been testing the autopark/summon feature on an extended test drive of a Model S 90D. I hve set the self-park/summon that will park the car in the garage to the closest tolerance and selected 8 inches clearence. However, the car stops at 10 inches, not 8 inches. This is important becase...

This is correct. The Model 3 will ONLY have a 75 pack, but will travel farther on a single charge due to its lighter weight. With the 75, most people do not need a super quick turnaround time. Tesla needs to simplify options and production to meet their overall goal of sustainable transportation...

We have selected the default "multi-pattern black" seats (no extra charge) but want to add the premium upgrade package (pup). on of the bullets in this option is for "leather arm rests, steering wheel . . .when paired with leather seating" Does this mean that since I have selected the...
