I've seen it as well, but only have noticed it when there is a curve in the road that makes it look like the car is stopped in front of me. And yes, the car turns bright red and I get warning buzzes.

My 2017 MS on FSDb will always slow down if the speed bump is clearly marked with a white chevron. Otherwise, it ignores them. It's a shame that only about 20% of the speed bumps I come across are marked.

I did my first drive of any real length today (62 miles, about half on interstates and half on secondary roads) with FSDb 11.3.3. My experience with braking was similar to yours, I think. My biggest issue is also that braking is still too late and too hard. I rarely use the friction brakes...

So we have a section on I95 in VA near Fredericksburg where they have recently installed electronic variable speed limit signs. The speeds range from 70 mph down to 35 mph at times. My 2017 Model S with FSD beta reads all of them correctly every time unless the speed is less than 45 mph. When...

And I think that that is the crux of the problem. Programming FSD to ALWAYS favor one side or the other is never going to work. Any predilection to do so will run into numerous issues. As the car should always know the nature of the road based upon map info, maybe certain basic rules might be...

It is for that reason that I typically will not use it if someone is too close behind me. But I just did a 300+ mile drive to the OBX and I experienced only 3 or 4 phantom braking events, and only of about 5-10 mph. Not great, but they were also fairly gradual. Nothing sudden. I had to turn it...

I think that one of the issues here is that it kinda depends on the type of road on which you are driving. On a urban or suburban street where there are cars parked on the right (in some parts of the world) side of the road, staying towards the center line makes sense to prevent a lot of bobbing...

Taking a nap usually "fixes" me too. ;-)

My bad. See above reply to Tam. Thanks.

I see that now. I was only focused on the Model S forum section. Myopic on my part. The only thing that I thought is that since they reserve the right to yank FSD beta away for unsafe driving, that it might still be useful. But I suppose that Tesla is really now only concerned about monitoring...

So I was lucky enough to qualify for the download of FSD beta on Monday. Got my first chance to drive on Tuesday, a 85 mile round trip including rural roads, Interstate highway, and some small town roads. During that time, I was still able to see my Safety score and see how it changed, or not...

I put on the Ecohitch by Torklift on my 2017 MS. Works great for bike racks. Some have even towed with it. Just make sure to isolate it from the frame or you will probably get some galvanic reaction. They do provide some nylon washers for this purpose, but I went the extra mile and applied a...

I ran into this case just yesterday for the first time. Sign said "35 mph limit ends". Car stayed at 35 mph. The speed limit was then back to 50 mph.

I drive I95 and I64 between the DC area and Norfolk, VA pretty often and I have not seen any issues of the car not reading the speed limit signs as the go between 60, 65, and 70 mph. And especially on I64 there have been a number of recent changes. I did notice, however, one instance when the...

Just asking... Are you sure it's Sentry Mode and not just regular dash cam? Every time I install a software update, the dash cam gets turned on. I also just forget to turn it off sometimes. Again. Just a thought. Does the IC indicate you have 500 Sentry mode events?

Installed the update 2020.36 two days ago and finally went out today. Speed limit sign recognition worked flawlessly over about 68 miles of mixed neighborhood roads and highway. I never used AP as I enjoy driving too much, so I can't help with how it would react. But definitely a step in the...

So true! I have never owned a car that cost more than $22k and I held onto it for 17 years (2001 Toyota Celica GTS - loved it) because I wasn't going to buy another ICE vehicle and I wanted a car that would be fun to drive. $112k later I took possession of my 2017 MS100D and I couldn't be much...

I bought these as well. Worked perfectly right out of the box on my 2017 MS100D.

This just happened to me last week. I had never had the problem before on my late 2017 MS100D. I had just installed the 40.2.1 update, so I thought that maybe that might be the problem, but when I stopped and had the chance to check, there was indeed a small spot of condensation, but only...

I would say that over the last 2 years of ownership and Supercharging, this has happened to me well over a dozen times. And as you did, I ALWAYS get out and explain the quirks of the SC system and especially when I let them know that it will hurt them more than me, as I will still get the lions...

I would assume that ELECTROMAN had tongue planted firmly in cheek.

For planning a trip, especially one with several waypoints, I use Abetterrouteplanner. I find it to be quite accurate, (it has shown SC's that were open that the Superchargers app still showed under construction, which was crucial on a 2,300 mile trip earlier this year. And this app can be used...

I second the (e)motion for Abetterrouteplanner. I used it extensively for a trip we just did to the Bay of Fundy from Maryland. It was a big help and very easy to use. Even though I have a 2017 MS100D withfull navigation, this made planning multiple waypoints and stops easy, something not...

Just a guess, but it probably has to do with the (outdated and sometimes just wrong) speed limit database that Tesla uses. Does the speed limit shown on your IC always match the speed to which Autopilot changes (or doesn't change)?

Pre-Raven MS100D can charge @150kW (used to be 120kW before OTA upgrade) even on V2. Don't know about on V3 but probably the same.

In my experience, if dashcam is on, it just keeps on recording until you turn it off or run out of battery. It doesn't care if you are moving or not. As a matter of fact, I find that the dashcam is turned on after every update. Kind of annoying. I have sometimes had days of recording of the...

Well, I have never had Sentry mode record unless I turn on dashcam recording. The center display shows Sentry mode as active, and I will have a message on the IC that there have been x number of events, but no actual recording unless I turn on the dashcam before exiting the car. When I remember...

Well, it's still showing up on my S9+. Maybe an Android/ iOS thing? Just wondering out loud. Don't know about Tesla website.

We're taking the ferry from St. John's to Digby and back as our way to and from Nova Scotia, but we are staying in St. Andrew's (at 2 different places, both of which have destination chargers) in New Brunswick and some small bay-front cottages in Nova Scotia. We had originally thought we would...

I have a SD card reader with a 128GB card and I use the USB to USB-C adapter that came with my S9+ (which I leave in the car) and just plug it into my phone. Then most of the time I watch them on the Teslacam/Sentry reviewer app (which is brilliant!) just sitting in the car. Works good for me.

Yeah. I noticed that a Supercharger opened in Enfield just north of Halifax. Good for us as we are staying about 30 miles north of that on the coast of the Bay of Fundy. I just wish that the one in St. Johns would open before we head up in 10 days.

Awesome! Thanks for the quick replies.

So we have a trip planned where we will be traveling into Canada going to the Bay of Fundy with some sightseeing along the way. My question; how is the mobile data for our 2017 MS100D handled? My understanding is we have LTE through AT&T in the US. Is there some roaming agreement with a...

I had the same problem with my December 2017 MS100D with the 28.1 update. I was losing a out 1 mph. Reboots, etc. did nothing. What finally worked to get me back to only a few miles lost a day was to do the full power down. I just left it that way overnight. No problem after that. YMMV. (Pun...

Charged today at the same Supercharger but a different stall without incident. Only other difference was I started at a higher SOC and went to about the same final SOC. Seems like it might have been the charging stall. I feel much better.

I had the same problem on Tuesday. Kept stopping randomly. Unfortunately, the chargers were mostly full, so I put up with it only as long as I needed to. I will be traveling tomorrow and will probably be hitting a Supercharger on the way home, so we'll see what happens.

I don't know for sure because I left it overnight and it got powered back up at the preset time to charge. When I checked on it the next day everything was working as it should. Sorry I can't give you any insight.

So after several hard reboots did nothing about my excessive vampire losses, doing a full power down for several hours seems to have fixed the problem. I don't use Teslafi so that had nothing to do with it. But at any rate, all is good again. I was in the habit of rebooting after updates. Now...

Lost another 19 miles in the last 24 hours. I have never seen anything even close to this! Energy saving on, Always connected on (as has always been the case). Most I have ever lost before was a one-off one time deal of 11 miles. Car has been in the garage the whole time so it isn't overheat...

Well I installed the 2019.24.4 four days ago now and I have been losing 16 to 20 miles of range every day since. I have done a hard reboot and it made no difference. I have checked all of the settings for power usage, made sure that sentry mode was off, etc. I used to see between 2 to 5 miles...

Nuts! Only for iOS. Thanks for the reply.

So from what I can tell, I definitely have AP 2.5 as my dashcam video (from all 3 cams) is in full color. So it seems like sentry mode should work for me. Still no joy unless dashcam is active along with sentry mode being activated. Doesn't seem right. Any thoughts or suggestions?

@dpilone I am curious. What app did you use to get the charging graph? I would love to have that information. As for me, with 2017 MS100D at about 20% SOC, I have seen as high as 143kw for about 5 minutes or so. Then as others note, seems like a quicker taper after that.

If I do have AP 2.0, I will be just a might pissed. But a little further information. I was out the other day and I decided to run the Tesla dashcam while running errands. When I got back to the car, I saw that there had been 1 sentry event. I checked it with the Teslacam/Sentry viewer app...

That's good to know. Anyone with an idea as to why it's not recording sentry events? I see the screen activate and say recording when I try to test it. I have returned to the car from a store and it says that I had some "events". But still no recordings.

I seem to be having a problem. Tesla dash cam works fine but I get no sentry mode recordings. Model S (ordered 09/02/17 delivered 12/05/17; sticker on car indicates 11/17 as month/year of build), 2019.20.1 (but had the same problem on 2019.16.2), and I am assuming that I have AP 2.5 hardware...

I realize that the yellow banding around the screen is just cosmetic, but the same could be said if there was yellow discoloring of the exterior paint job. It would still be considered unacceptable. This is a major disappointment in my book. My car is only 16 months old, garage kept, and the...

My understanding is that it is still in development . Not ready for prime time yet. Might be interested when it is ready, though.

I had originally put down a deposit on the M3 but when I found out that it wouldn't be available with a pano roof or a hatchback, I bit the bullet and got a 2017 MS100D. Those are two things that I would hate to do without. So happy with my decision.

@drklan said: If alone, you have to advance a few inches, look, repeat until you find the nail. That said, when you are sitting there waiting for roadside assistance to show up, what else do you have to do? Seems like a good way to use summon. It moves slowly enough that you could probably get...
