    Tesla recalls 2 million vehicles to limit use of Autopilot

    Right. FSD-Full Self Driving. Not sure how else to interpret that. Are people being "naive" because they thought when they'd bought Full Self Driving that is might actually be that? Who would have thought....

    Tesla recalls 2 million vehicles to limit use of Autopilot

    Right. Why would anyone assume Level IV FSD for the price they paid (2-8k) when Tesla themselves calls it "FSD?" You weren't being naive. It shouldn't have been promised as Level IV/FSD. Totally misleading

    Replacing cabin air filters without using Evaporator coil cleaner spray

    Hi, This is the improved version of what I have: Enerzen Ozone Generator 6,000mg Industrial O3 Air Purifier Deodorizer Sterilizer (6,000mg - Black) I purchased it on Amazon. Has a lot of useful applications

    Any of you have 100/99 scores still not get any FSD till today?

    I got a cumulative 84 on Day 1. This was from a bogus FCW. It initially brought the score down to around 64 or so. I decided not to reset, or game it. Only thing I did do was 2-button reset on another bogus FCW on Day 22 or so. I was at 98 for at least 2 weeks, because of that low initial score...

    What did you name your Tesla?

    Based on recent bogus FCW and hard unintentional braking, I have renamed mine "DeathTrap"

    Safety Score

    So yesterday I was at 98, and drove in to DC to visit relatives. On the way there, a bogus FCW, which even my wife (big critic) said was nothing. So, I will give 10% chance of it being avoidable. I did a reset, as my single FCW dropped me down on Day 1 to a 64, then an 84 for the day average...

    Tesla’s FSD Beta 10.3 Coming This Friday 10-22-2021

    So yet another example of how this is all bullsh*t: I have a 98. Got an 84 cumulative on day 1, with a bogus FCW. Been trying to fix since. I have had one 98 day, mostly 100, and some 99. My overall score is a 98. So, I will miss this beta, because I didn't game the system, which makes me a...

    Safety Score

    With respect, Apple doesn't do this: You buy a computer with OS X, and are told you already paid for OS Z, which is a beta. 3 years pass OS Z is being released, but first, you need to show you will use OS Z the way they want you to, prior to you getting it. In fact, you will be "tested"...

    Safety Score

    Yup. This is totally stupid. So, remain in a state of limbo for an unspecified amount of time, just to score high enough to get the beta of something you've paid for? What other company operates like this?

    Replacing cabin air filters without using Evaporator coil cleaner spray

    I got the moldy smell in my 2018 M3+, and cleaned the coils, as well as changed the filters. I put a simple "grate" type cover on the intake vent, as I did find some debris in there. Smell came back several months later, and I checked the filters-clean. Coils looked clean, but I ended up...

    Safety Score

    I drive very little lately, and not on highways. Yesterday my score went from 100 to 62, based on one FCW, which was not my fault. Crossed an intersection, traffic, then abrupt slowdown at the next light. Happens. The second light is where large tankers turn on sometimes, and delay/alter...

    Safety Score: parameter dependence

    I was definitely surprised with my score yesterday. Granted I don't drive much (maybe about 10miles/day right now), and my score went from 100 down to 62 with one FCW event. It wasn't my fault-crossed an intersection, traffic, then abrupt slowdown to another light. Happens. I wasn't following...

    Update 2021.32.22 bricked my LEMR [not related to update -12v battery failed during update]

    “Bricked”. I don’t think this word means what you think it means…

    model y long-range 12v battery

    Quick question about the 12v battery. I looked, but couldn't find info. I had mine replaced yesterday (M3) and the rated range increased. When the old 12v died (the day before) I was getting errors that said "replace soon," and "non-essential features may be disabled," but most notably was the...

    Supercharger - Vienna, VA

    Thanks for this post-I live right nearby this location, and just learned about it-never considered it would happen, but happy it did. So, if my power goes out, I can drive the 2 miles over, and charge here

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    Right, and what I think is that Tesla likely selected motors for P, tested them, and used them if they passed. Probably tossed them entirely if they didn't make the cut (unlikely that a "non-pass" motor would still be used in ANY car). There's no insult in the parts being the same for P- vs AWD...

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    Let me be clear... You are missing the point. You said there's a physical difference. I've seen NOTHING as proof of that, and abundant proof there is NO physical difference. Look-from the beginning, I placed my bet on there being NO physical difference between the M3P-, and the LR AWD model...

    Are you saying that there IS a physical difference?

    "Acceleration Boost" option, discussion as to which models and how much quicker

    You'd like to believe this, wouldn't you? It's software. No proof that the motors have different hardware

    Left door pillar camera blocked or blinded

    I'm wondering if most/all of you are parking in a garage, seeing it with the change in temp (condensation) and then it's better once the car acclimates to the temp, and condensation resolves. I have this issue lately, too, and I've pulled over and seen condensation. Always L (driver's side)...

    Just read on the Tesla Model 3 forum it is a nationwide outage affecting 90% of cars

    2018.42.4 NO AP?

    Same issue this morning. Have 42.4, had 42.2 for about 2 weeks before, and all was fine until this AM. No auto wipers, no cruise or EAP. Tried the reboot with the buttons (didn't try the brake pedal) and no luck

    Lane-splitting motorcycle stoplight drag-race dilemma

    Sorry- KG M3 didn't say all of that-I did, the part from here down: Interesting. You lead with a study from a surely unbiased point of view... The studies that I saw show that there are statistically significant reductions in rear-ending accidents, and certain types of injuries suffered from...

    Lane-splitting motorcycle stoplight drag-race dilemma

    Yup-read the posts/thread. My opinion still stands. Show me how this is a good practice in general. It is not.

    Lane-splitting motorcycle stoplight drag-race dilemma

    How about no lane splitting? It's a ridiculous, dangerous practice. Makes people aggressive towards motorcycle drivers, and is not safe for drivers of cars. Not sure how this is acceptable anywhere...
