    Software Update 2019.8.x

    Got 2019.8.6 a couple hours ago. Nothing new in the notes from 2019.8.3 that I had before. Still no enhanced summon.

    Software Update 2019.8.x

    If only it were that simple. Doesn't matter how many car lengths you choose, the behavior is DRASTICALLY different since my 2018.50.X build. I can't use TACC since this build installed. I used it daily since I bought the car in March of 2018 and never had issues. Now, it's so jerky and...

    Software Update 2019.8.x

    TACC is twitchy as hell now with this update. Constantly on and off with acceleration and braking. I had to turn it off, it was literally making me motion sick. It was so smooth before, now it seems to constantly accelerate and then brake hard, then accelerate, then brake hard.

    Software Update 2019.8.x

    I'm over 4 hours round trip from a service center, so I generally get mobile service only if things crop up.

    Software Update 2019.8.x

    I haven't gotten any updates to my S since 2018.49.20. Is there a way for me to request an update somehow?

    Autopilot on HW1 now better than New Autopilot on HW2+

    Fixed. You forget that all AP2/2.5 cars before 2/28/19 also have all those features too.

    Takata Air Bag Recall - STILL!?!?!

    My 2012 mercedes is still not fixed and is expected to have "parts available" in June of 2019. The whole recall is taking everyone forever to address.

    Incidents of Tesla fires...

    The mountainview crash the driver was reported to have been killed by the injuries from the crash, and the driver was pulled from the car, before the fire engulfed it. Fort Lauderdale it appears one died from injuries not related to the fire, the other was likely the fire. So that's one. The...

    Incidents of Tesla fires...

    I didn't address that because so far he's provided no source for his claims, and he seems to be counting every tesla fire he can find even if there was no death.

    Incidents of Tesla fires...

    It'd be cool if you used accurate data. NFPA statistics - Highway vehicle fires by year With about 253 million vehicles on the road in the US, and about 180,000 vehicle fires per year average, that equates to roughly 1 vehicle fire for every 1,405 vehicles on the road. Tesla on the other...

    Incidents of Tesla fires...

    Y'all are getting trolled. Anyone who talks about tesla fires without talking about the fact that the rate of vehicle fires of just about every other manufacturer is significantly higher than teslas, is just a troll.

    Here comes another Tesla crash ...

    When I had my accident in my mercedes, the driver's airbag did deflate, but all of the curtain airbags did not. I had to duck under my curtain airbag to get out of my car. You can see in this picture here all the curtain airbags on the left side are still inflated well after the accident. It...

    Close call...

    I have seen at least one tesla video where it detects cross traffic blowing a red light, does the "beep beep beep" and hits the brake only to have the car it detected from the side come flying into the intersection and hit someone else, missing the tesla.

    PPF proper installation question - not wrapped around edges is normal?

    I have xpel stealth and my installer wrapped the edges. There are only a couple tiny areas that are not wrapped.

    2018.34.1 update

    Ah then I'll ask the mods to close this. I was on my phone and search didn't turn anything up. Of course on my PC now I see them. :rolleyes:

    2018.34.1 update

    Got this last night. Couldn’t find a thread? Added “pin to drive”.

    Autopilot, Crash and Insurance - Who at Fault?

    I do not think you read his post. He is not at fault. Autopilot didn’t even factor in here.

    Driver Seat Adjustment

    I just went through this myself, required seat recalibration. Hopefully it doesn't happen again. If it does I'm curious what tesla's fix would be.

    Driver's Seat Back Incline Changed/Broken?

    Ah thank you, good to know. I'll contact them about service.

    Driver's Seat Back Incline Changed/Broken?

    Noticed since I believe the last update, maybe before can't recall exactly - the driver's seat back incline level is very limited in how far vertical it can go compared to previous. Even compared to the passenger seat which can go to pretty much a 90 degree angle, our driver's seat leans quite...

    BlackVue DR750S-2CH install - step by step guide

    For what it's worth I used it just fine through the back driver's side grommet.

    BlackVue DR750S-2CH install - step by step guide

    You can use polyethylene tubing to run the cables, like what is used for aquariums RODI water systems etc. Dirt cheap and you probably only need about 6' of it. 1/4" Mur-lok Polyethylene RO Tubing

    Software Update 2018.20 ad59ff9

    Other than no audio until I re-paired with the car a few times I have not had any problems with my IPhone X.

    BlackVue DR900S-2CH 4K UHD is now available PRE-ORDERED

    I got mine from EVS motors, a sponsor here. Easy transaction and they had it to me right away.

    BlackVue DR900S-2CH 4K UHD is now available PRE-ORDERED

    Got my first interesting vid on the 4k blackvue. Had the car in TACC and it hit the brakes as it saw a deer in the road before I even saw it. (dusk - very hard to see them at that time of day)

    Software Update 2018.20 ad59ff9

    I am but, fortunately after re-pairing two more times it is fixed. :D

    Software Update 2018.20 ad59ff9

    For what it’s worth my MCU2 car has had this from day 1. So I wa not aware this isn’t what earlier cars had for lane markings. What did it look like before?
  33. F

    Software Update 2018.20 ad59ff9

    Yep it was the first thing I tried.
  34. F

    Software Update 2018.20 ad59ff9

    My Bluetooth for phone calls doesn’t work since the update. People can hear me but they don’t come through the speakers at all. Volume is up. Tried re-pairing no dice.

    AM radio in model S

    So the model 3 (which have MCU2), and MCU2 model X also do not have AM. So, AM is going away it seems altogether on teslas.
  36. F

    AM radio in model S

    I have premium sound. I’m pretty sure MCU2 model S don’t have AM.
  37. F

    AM radio in model S

    Maybe it's an MCU2 thing. I think all Model S MCU2 do not have AM radio.

    AM radio in model S

    March 1 2018 build. I have glass roof. I can turn off HD and that's it. I can't do AM.

    AM radio in model S

    Yes Hmm, Mine was a March 1 build, when was yours built?

    AM radio in model S

    Mine is all glass top and doesn't have AM radio. Also don't have XM.

    AM radio in model S

    My 2018 model S does not have AM. They got rid of it I think in the last year.

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    Interesting that the dual motor model 3 has one induction motor for performance. :)

    Software Update 2018.18.2 301aeee

    So which is it. You’ve had the car 45 days OR you’ve had it for months on 2018.12?
  45. F

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    I’d have to disagree. But maybe I’m missing specifics of what makes the model 3 more “advanced”? That’s not how I felt after driving both. The battery maybe. But not the motor as we discussed earlier. The motor was chosen primarily because it was cheaper.
  46. F

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    Also the data Edmunds posted on their test model 3 was only 83.3% charge efficiency. Makes me think that the M3 doesn’t have the same charging hardware etc. Which would make sense. They have to cut corners to make the car cheaper.
  47. F

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    The shorter the charge time the less loss. I misquoted the RI*I thing. It’s vampire losses. The longer you charge the more energy you lose to coolant pumps, fans, etc.
  48. F

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    The efficiency is from charging at a higher amperage, since the energy loss is given by the integral of the resistive loss (RI*I) over the charging time. I'm not sure I follow what you're asking.

    Seriously considering S -> 3

    Model 3 road noise is louder for sure. Can tell a decent difference between my MS and my friend's M3 when riding around.
