I get in the car, put my foot on the brake, put on my seatbelt, tap the brake again and the car 'shifts' or energizes reverse automatically. Very nice, and then after backing out of the garage, swipe the screen to go forward. Not that the 3 was hard to shift, I do prefer the S method.

There is hope, as mine works now. Not great, but it does usually work.

I sold my 3P and got a '21 LR about 1 year ago. Both cars are great, the MS is way bigger, smoother and faster at speed. It is a luxury car, the 3P is a sportier car. I have come to really like the yoke once they fixed the turn signals. The shifting is better and their is less vibration in the...

Been very quiet on releases for awhile. Could it be a nice big unified build be coming????

+1 on folding the seats down first. Most common issue is the seat latch and very easy to test before taking the door apart and risk breaking the connectors.

It sounds like you went with the same size tires front and rear, which is far from what Tesla did. The computer is setup to analyze the wheel speed of 255/45 front and 285/40 tires rear. You have changed that ratio which will completely confuse the ABS system of any car, especially near the...

Get the car now and enjoy it. Mine is a very early build that I have been thoroughly enjoying for over 6 months.

I enjoy driving the car on a nice road. I do not enjoy driving in stop and go traffic. FSD does not prevent you from driving, it just gives you an option when you don't want to drive. I sold my 911, not because of how it drove, but because it was an incredibly rare day (about 200 miles per year)...

You can see the tape on the top. It was bumping the round stop on the bottom.I am sure adjusting the stop would work but I didn't know if I should go up or down and didn't want to risk damaging the hood.

OK, so latest tweet is today for wide release, waiting, waiting....

Another satisfied customer! The tape on the bracket silenced the seats. The cabin is really quiet now, and ANR isn't active yet. An FYI, the other rattle the car had sounded like it was under the dash, but I discovered the hood tapped on the stop by the hinged in the frunk. A bit of soft tape...

Finally got an app update and can view live cameras on Android. Pretty 😎

Thanks @MorrisonHiker! I knew I had to be just missing something simple, on the refreshed S you have to open the controls menu and there it is. I was just thinking it was on the task bar.

What am I missing, how do I report problems with the FSD. If I click the dash cam is just says "can't load unless in park" or something like that. Saying "report" in the mic usually displays something else. What am I missing?

Musk just tweeted big update coming on Tuesday! FSD 10.8, waypoints and holiday Surprise's.

I have a hundred miles to drive today, but am still waiting at 2021.36.8.10. How will I possibly manage with such old software :rolleyes:

You must tap the charger to start the car with the card. It does not need to stay there. Phone generally is a much better solution, as is the key fob. Card is really a valet only thing for most people.

The problem is not the brakes, it is the speed is way more than the drivers are use to. Bigger brakes DO NOT help the car stop better. ALL bigger brakes do is provide better cooling for repeated stopping. So anyone who is doing repeated stops to prove the brakes are bad doesn't understand the...

They are completely different cars. They both have WAY more performance than needed on the street, neither are really track cars. They are both great, decide if you want a smaller, sportier car or a bigger, more luxurious car. Based on the OP not being an experienced fast driver, I would even...

And when did managers start knowing nearly as much as users here? Last I knew they just made stuff up to keep customers happy.

I sometimes leave mine in the glove box, but you could easily hide it in the frunk or hatch if you are really worried about it. Few people steal Teslas, and those who try are usually either real pro's or real idiot's. The pro's don't break into cars hoping for a hidden card, the idiots don't...

I have used and recommended turo. Always been a great experience as a renter.

Wow, waypoints are huge! We have been waiting for that for 8 years!!!

The nice thing about gutting your car is it is free and you can put it back and no one ever knows. Just a time cost.

I got live sentry update. Turned it on in the car, but waiting for the Android app to be able to test. Nothing on ANC.

I got this and have a yoke. It is the non yokers that got skipped.

Under safety.

Just test drove 10.4 on my new S. It may have just been luck, but FSD was much improved. Zero disengagements or scary maneuvers. Turns were smoother and overall, if it always drove that well, it could be useful. Need to drive more, and it was a relatively easy trip to the bank and home. I did...

Is you are looking for words of wisdom, I would say remember that it is just a car. Don't look for flaws, it isn't perfect. But if you look for the good, it really does so much that is so much better.

Yes, in the refreshed you push the sentry icon at the bottom of the screen (camera with red dot) to get the viewer. Also coming to you phone soon, sooner if you have an iPhone.

If you want to come to San Diego, you can try mine, but I will warn you, the test drive will only make the wait harder ;)

It looks like my download was about 750 MB. Having driven it a little now, it is amazing what it can do at times, but then it does something really simple poorly. I see this getting good fairly soon based on the complex things it can do well. Maybe I am just an optimist and see the glass as...

I did notice my car downloaded the update when I got the 99, but it was about 3 days later I got the email and the option based on my router usage information. Not sure what triggers things, but for me it just happened with no additional download or wifi required.

Sitting at a true 99 for a few days now, no restarts etc. Wife is driving car today, but so far she has 100's. She just shook her head when I told her to be extra cautious. Didn't even try to convince her it was for her own safety and not the FSD score.

Exact same situation as of this morning. Waiting sorta patiently.

Interesting, but you are comparing a 7 year old, $30k Model S, a $50k Model 3 and a ~$130k basically new Porsche. Not really apples to apples.

As far as not really being able to disable safety systems, this isn't unusual. On the track, the first thing you do is turn off the traction control systems. This kinda turns it down at best. Very few cars actually turn these systems off despite the implied function of the traction control 'OFF'...

Can anyone confirm the 30 day rolling average? My first day was an 84, but nothing under 97 since so I am at 98. Easy 99 30 day average with real driving so I would rather not cheat the system. Found it. The Safety Score Beta is the first release of the Safety Score which is an assessment of...

My hood just touched the stops in the frunk at the hinge. At slow speeds it clicked or rattled like a loose connector at low speeds mostly. Press lightly on the hood near the wipers and see if you hear the rattle. Fixed mine with a small foam pad on the hinge stop until it goes to service if ever.

No need for FSD now. You can save $10k and just buy the subscription if needed later. But the porsche doesn't offer FSD, so you shouldn't hold that option cost against the Tesla. Not apples to apples.

I would choose the 4S over the hybrid. The 4S is what Porsche knows, the hybrid is a very expensive and complex marketing gimmick to me. If I were you, I would seriously consider a new Model S LR. The upfront cost is more, but the true cost of ownership will be less over the next 3 to 5 years I...

I teach racing for Porsche and have owned ~20 Porsches, so not THAT biased toward Tesla. That said, for a street car, the Model S is simply better unless you do a LOT of long distance traveling. The Panamera has effectively been replaced by the Taycan so the depreciation will be insane. Also, as...

That is all possibly true, but in general, if you have to judge in general using only a couple metrics, theirs should provide good data. Not that a few bad apples can get in, but I can't think of a better simple formula. They can't do this on a case by case basis for every mile of driving.

It is also how fast you lift off. Plan ahead and slowly reduce throttle to gently engage Regen and I have never been dinged. Not sure why I am helping my FSD competitors😁

Then unselect it for now and you don't have to worry any more.

It was about 2 hours after I side-loaded the app that the new version came out. Oh well....

This isn't just a game. The first users are the ones training the system how to drive. I would much prefer the initial FSD be a very smooth and cautious driver. Not a typical Tesla Plaid driver ;). This isn't a ploy Tesla is using to delay releasing the perfect FSD they have, they are actually...

My old P85 did that occasionally on the driveside rear door when it was in the hot sun. Just closed the door and never bothered to have service adjust it. Was a 2014 for handle.
