    2022.24.1 - Official Release Notes

    So only the 2022.24 has the blind spot placement capability? I have an M3 and 2022.20. Why don't I have .24 yet? How can I get it?

    Anyone else dislike the new UI?

    This new update (48.35.5) is cutesy and I like it a little but it has a fatal flaw for me! On the freeway I regularly used the + and - signs to increase/decrease cruise control slightly. They are gone! As if there wasn't any room for them? Software programmers probably don't have their own Tesla...

    Recurring Bluetooth connection glitches

    This problem seems to go away for a while then keeps locking me out. Without the app on, most times, I can unlock my car by walking up to it and touching the door handle. Now, even with the app on, it insists I have to "Enable Bluetooth to use your phone as a key" even though my phone says it is...

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    Magic? Update? Don't know how, but the files are now showing in alphabetical order. Perhaps someone noticed and make a tiny change in the software. If so, thanks very much!

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    If anyone knows how to fix this file problem please post here! I don't like having to look at the screen too much to find my music that is no longer alphabetized! Surely someone here is software smart??

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    Odd that only one level of the Folder is scrambled. Level 3 but not 1,2,4,or 5.

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    Unfortunately the 12.1.2 update did not fix this. Sounds like this has to be fixed at Tesla. Since only 2% of music listeners like classical, this will possibly never get fixed.

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    Folders. That way I can organize by composer and composition respectively. Has worked fine previously. Now the composer level is scrambled and I don't see any controls to change it.

    What did you name your Tesla?

    Linus, after Linus Pauling the great chemist and double Nobel prize winner. I'm sitting on 4,416 examples of his brilliance.

    Update 12.1.1 scrambles the alphabet?!

    With the update to 12.1.1 my USB thumb-drive file folders are no longer alphabetized! The top level directory (Bach through Vivaldi) are now scrambled which makes it pretty hard to find my music. The next levels of the file directory are alphabetical so all the individual "songs" are mixed up...

    Range, Speed, and Temperature vs. Road Trip Planning

    Would these numbers also apply to the Model 3 or is the battery system significantly different? (it is different chemistry) BTW, you give different battery kWh vs. miles but if you plot them they represent 50% margin not 67%. What is the difference, weather? I am assuming that you list +...

    Range, Speed, and Temperature vs. Road Trip Planning

    Big Earl: Yes I recalculated with PLAN ROUTE. No change. I will try more. Chad: Awesome! This ought to be a sticky thread at the home page. Thanks very much.

    Range, Speed, and Temperature vs. Road Trip Planning

    A Better Routeplanner looks very cool, but when I added heavy rain and 15mph wind there was no change in the time or charging. It tells me I would have 30% remaining but I had 10%. There may be no adjustment for speed after all.

    Range, Speed, and Temperature vs. Road Trip Planning

    Just took a little road trip and was surprised again at needing more charging than I thought. I assumed speed, temperature, weather, and road conditions had negative effects on planning a trip but was still surprised. Fortunately just found this video which includes a chart for the S (I have...

    Update to fix Auto-wiper function?

    I have read that there is an update that fixes the Auto option for the windscreen wipers. Anyone know which update does that? Supposedly there is an adjustment to the neural network necessary (?). Here in Oregon we are having an unusually wet spring and the wipers hardly ever wipe at a useful...

    Connector Won't Unlock!

    I had the software bug (according to Tesla) that froze the charger connector in the port and wouldn't unlock. Tesla "T" was solid red. They told me that you can manually release the connector by reaching into the hole in the left back of the inside of the trunk near the light and pulling GENTLY...

    Sentry Mode and Mileage?

    I drive somewhat reasonably. I am getting over the wow-effect of accelerating from a stop. This trip was Eugene to Portland almost entirely I5, mostly 70mph, late afternoon. Cloudy, 55F, but not bad, and pretty flat.Started at 310 mi and was at about 190 mi in Portland. Added 69 mi at a Blnk...

    Sentry Mode and Mileage?

    By the way, nothing was recorded on the thumb drive during those days. I know SM worked because as I walked up to the car I saw it engage.

    Sentry Mode and Mileage?

    I have seen a post or two about how Sentry Mode uses power and reduces mileage. My first trial seems odd, so please help me understand if I have things right: - charged M3RWD to 310 mi - drove freeway to city 108 mi away (by Google maps). - parked at hotel, charged up 69 extra mi. - parked for...

    Sentry mode instructions?

    I have a thumb drive plugged into the right side of the console (?). I have music on the drive, so does the Sentry Mode add a file or write over my music?

    Software Upgrade Status/

    How can you tell if you have the latest software version? I have 2018 50.6 but don't know if that is current or not yet up-to-date. Don't have the new Sentry mode or the range/speed upgrades yet.
