Me too, no auto steer, NoA, FSD, or cruise control after 10.3 update, did reset, power off and camera recalibrate, no luck. 2018 MX.

2018 MX just got email, downloading... Looks like everyone with 100 over 100 mile will get it!

Maybe they need to spread out the 1000+ downloads either randomly or based on models, locations, etc. I got 100 331 miles, 2018 MX, bay area, no email or download yet. Hope we'll all get it soon!

You have less than 3 hours to improve your daily score: 1. to fix following too close, you need to drive over 50 mph and follow a car within 3 seconds without AP (but more than 1 second, or you will get another ding). 2. To fix aggressive turn, you can drive on a roundabout with G Sensor (app on...

I have been setting it to low on highways but I have noticed extra wear of the inner part of the rear tires, so I set to standard always now and the consumption difference is not that big. (2018 June MX100D, 28k miles)

Rest areas seem to be a better option, thanks for sharing.

I did it once. I found SC is safer than most other options. I kept it plugged sine I was the only one there, no idle charges, plus I can turned on the HVAC at full power without worrying about range loss. Also it looks like I was supper charging so that the security or police don't bother me. I...

Thanks for your info. I am wondering if this can fix the yellow band on the small screen.

This is only for rare power outage like the recent PG&E, which has never happened for the past 5 years. A $10k powerwall is an overkill for such a rare case. A $300 2.2kw inverter serves as a good emergency kit. The whole house runs about 500w to 800w with refrigerator. I can even power...

I would turn off the main switch before plugging in the backfeed. Are there any other concerns?

How do you watch Amazon Prime Video via Twitch? Can I watch all Prime Videos? Thanks.

I guess one way is to poll you pge account and one day it will change from eva to ev2a. Or call them.

You can log in to your pg&e account and try ev2a to see how much it will cost you. In your case, I think likely you will end up breaking even or pay a couple hundred at most. So it may not justify adding more solar. In my case, I will pay about $800 instead of breaking even with only one of my...

For some adapters, you may have to unplug it and plug it again once it's in that state.

If I stay on NEM 1.0 by only expanding by 1kw, can I keep EV-A for 5 year? Or do I have to convert to NEM 2.0? I tried to call PG&E again, but today they just drop all the non emergency calls. I am wondering if anyone knows this or have already called PG&E and asked about this. Thanks.

I just had my 2018 June MX 100D upgraded to HW3. I sent this thread to the SC and ask them if this is a common case. They said no. They told me they have only seen this case once for Model 3 but not related to HW3 upgrade. So far I haven't seen this problem yet, AP is working fine. I feel Nav is...

I just spent 30 minutes on the phone with PG&E solar department. The lady was extremely helpful. She discussed with her supervisor for 15 minutes and determined that if I expand my current NEM1 system and submit interconnect application by 11/30, I will be grand farthered EV-A for 5 years...

I also got the notice today. There is a fine print: "Customers installing rooftop solar may stay on EV-A for 5 years if their contractor submit the interconnection application by November 30, 2019." I am thinking of adding a few panels and submit an interconnection application (modifying...

Thank you all for this information. I just ordered 2 powerwalls for this purpose, looks like I should cancel the order. One idea is to buy a Nissan Leaf or even Tesla battery and build a DYI PW to discharge to the grid. Is this feasible?

Can you watch free amazon prime movies?

I have a question regarding sending video s to the Tesla Theater: From the release note: "you can also send videos to play in the Tesla Theater for supported theater sources by sharing the video link with the Tesla mobile app." I share some videos from YouTube on my phone, it showed successful...

From th e release note: "you can also send videos to play in the Tesla Theater for supported theater sources by sharing the video link with the Tesla mobile app." How do you do this? I share some videos from YouTube on my phone but nothing happens on Tesla Theater.

I have a question regarding the Karaoke, does it mix your singing with the music through microphone? My 2018 MX 2.5 doesn't seem to do it.

I can only add more drivers after buying the Tesla insurance. Do they adjust the prices base on the driver added?

It would be great if Model S/X can use phones as keys without internet (using bluetooth) like Mode 3. It would be even better if we can use phones to control the car through bluetooth. I camped in my MX (airbed with back seats folded flat). With internet, I can change climate control with my...

I remember seeing somewhere that Tesla will guarantee battery capacity of 70%, is this true? If so, I guess they will replace it either something is wrong or the rated miles at 100% falls below 70% of advertised number?

Need to make sure not to turn on large appliances or ACs, etc. just the lights (use LED), internet, TVs and computers, etc. which should not be more than 1kw, so 15 or 20 amp should be enough.If you need to run fridge, you need to turn off other ones to make sure total power is within the limit...

Tesla has a DC-DC converter converts 400V DC to 12V to charge the 12V battery and supply power for 12V system. You need to buy a 12V power inverter to convert 12V DC to 110V or 220 AC. Here is a good video: You can buy a bigger one (1500w or 2000w), but I would be cautious to draw too much...

You can use a 12V inverter connect to the battery post in the frunk. The DC-DC converter is rated 2.5kw. You can power the lights, TV, computers, maybe even the fridge, but not the AC etc. For latest models the battery post is directly connected to the 12 battery and connected to the DC-DC...

"18" connects the post to 12V battery positive terminal (they call this "B+" which connects to all fuses". "17" connects to the DCDC converter and the terminal that connects to "B+" through F1 (MEGA-250A fuse). Hope this helps.

I found this in the the 2017 Model X Service Manual: F131 MICRO2 - 15A IGN - Trailer Connector I assume the trailer plug has a 15A fuse.

That diagram is for 2014 Model S, I looked up from the 2017 Model X service manual. There is cable connects the Jump Post direct to the 12V battery positive terminal. The part number is: ASY,CABLE,MDLX,LHD,12V+ 1036883-00-E

I looked up the service manual, the jump post is directly connected to the 12V batter positive without a fuse. It is connected to the DCDC converter through a 250A fuse. So he was right, it is unfused.

That's good solution to power up laptops and phones, but it's less than 1kwh. With 75kwh or 100kws batters (equivalent to 5 or 7 powerwalls) we can power the whole house for weeks. Only difference is the power output, powerwalls can output 5kw (7kw peak), we can only do 2kw..

Here is an instruction: I think he has 17 or 16 MX, mine is June, 2018 MX, so it has always been there. He tested a 750w: He said it is unfused, but it is fused at 80 amp, which should be good for up to 800w.

For bigger power inverter, you can connect to the jump start post in frunk. It's fused at 80 amps, so you can use a 800w inverter. If you need a bigger one, you can connect to the 12v battery, which will give you 200 amp, you can use a 2000w inverter, make sure turn off HVAC to avoid overloading...

Thanks for the info, now I understand that it makes sense for people having frequent power outages and need power for more things in the house. For me, I only need it for fridge, lights (all LEDs) and internet.

PE&E doesn't refund, can't carry over either. It's OK to generate more energy to help others but Powerwalls don't generate energy.

I thought you have to charge Powerwalls with solar to get rebate, so we can only shift from partial peak to peak which may not be much, given you are allowed to send power from Powerball to grid (can you?). With the same money, it may be more cost effective to invest more solar panels than...

I too couldn't figure out why I may need Powerwalls. I am in SF Bay Area with solar and 2 EVs. I am on PG&E EVA rate, so I sent solar generated power to PG&E during peak hours at $0.48/kwh and charge EVs at night at $0.12/kwh. I have always had credit left at true up. In my situation, I am...

I think one benefit of plugging in is that the car can use more engergy to keep the battery cool. If not plugged, BMS may not be able to cool it as much to avoid reducing too much range. High temperature is worse to the battery So even if you don't need the extra range, you can set limit to 60%...

@verygreen The manual doesn't say if we should wait until it is safe to change lane before confirming the lane suggestion, which I don't think so. I think we should confirm the correctness of the suggestion, not if it is safe now. I do agree we should watch it closely during the lane change and...

@tomc603 The question is not about blind spot detection, it is whether we need to wait until it can safely change lane before confirming the lane suggestion, which I don't think so. I do think we should watch closely when the car actually changes lanes and be ready to take immediate control.

Some people may have misunderstanding of the confirmation of the current NoA. I think the confirmation is to confirm if the lane suggestion is correct. The car simply says "I need to change to that lane, but I don't need to change it right now if it is not safe, so if you think my suggestion is...

From what I read, 2 factors affect the degradation the most: average SOC and temperature. BMS manages the temperature so we don't need to worry about it (Leaf doesn't, that may be why it lose capacity quickly). We only need to optimize the SOC and keep the average low. It is ok to charge it to...

I would like to share a little bit of my experience (2018 MX AP2.5). 1. V9 (39.7 and 40) has big improvements for lane changing compared with V8. For V8, I need to check and make sure it is safe and there is no car in blind spot before turning the signal. For V9, I have tested in all different...

That's true, but using it in controlled way can be handy. For me, the problem is if it turns too fast, I don't have a workaround other than disengage.

You can step on the accelerator and overide it without disengaging AP. This is what I do all the time if AP is too slow or phantom braking, works great. This is also a way to let AP handle the steering while I control the speed by engaging AP at low speed say 20 mph. Works very well for winding...

I found if you turn off HVAC after turning on heated seats or steering wheel, they stay on. Just a workaround.

Today I drove from Jacklin rd on 680 to 101 and exit on Yerba Buena on AP, including the ramp from 680 to 101 and the off ramp on Yerba Buena. I didn't disengage once, only things I did were to initiate lane changes.
