    New Owner with an SR+ and AutoPilot question

    I got SR+ with Full FSD. Ordered in start of March and delivered around 20 March. It says 8 years or 120k miles.

    How do you keep the car unlocked in the garage?

    If you don't fully close one door, car doesn't auto lock ;) . Just close the door super slowly, there is a point where its hinged in but not really closed (also standard problem with model 3 doors)

    Autopilot goof. Good thing I was paying attention :)

    Model 3 ap is awfully biased towards being in center of a lane. It works for normal lanes but in cases where lines are not standard, it sucks. I see my m3 struggle at exits and merges of Seattle I-5 express lanes where the lines are not clear like other exits as express lanes switch direction...

    Recommended tire pressure

    My model 3 came with 45. I changed it to 40-41 psi and there was TREMENDOUS difference in road noise and riding comfort. 45 seemed like rolling on skates.

    Traffic aware cruise control

    Search phantom breaking . This is major gripe people have with auto pilot right now

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    SR+ does not have streaming and traffic anyway. I take it that they can't stop data and navigation in SR in either case because of FSD. Unless Tesla gives some benefit to SR folks soon (chance to buy optional premium plan for streaming/ browser, etc.) , I see real possibility of flood of...

    Downgrade SR+ and get $2000 back?

    I bought SR+ with fsd. So if I downgrade, I I only lose front heated seats and get $2000 back?

    NOA lane changing into concrete barrier / walls?

    I disabled automatic lane changes too. Its pretty dumb in lane changing decision. On I5, it will ask me to leave HOV lane when there is a 100% guarantee that the other lane is going to be stuck in next half mile while HOV will always be free and at higher speed. Additionally, i have noticed...

    Tesla headache?

    Headache was major issue for me and my wife. I over came it by setting Regen to low and acceleration to chill. It made massive difference and we really enjoyed the ride after that. You can do this in short term until you master using accelerator for both speed up and slow down. The trick is to...

    Has anyone got it on SR+ yet? I am curious about release notes as SR+ does not have browser exposed.

    PSA: CAREFUL--Autopilot sudden braking

    Happened to me last week on a grey seattle day. My M3 misread shadow of overhead bridge as another car and slammed the breaks to drop to 45 from 68. Luckily no one was behind me. Its weird because i am doing same commute from last 3 weeks and it only happened once.

    Finding if you have new autopilot chip.

    Sign up on teslafi.com, open settings page and search for Option codes. It shows Ap3.5 or 3 there. I got delivery mid March and it is 2.5 :(

    PSA: CAREFUL--Autopilot sudden braking

    I have same problem in my model 3 . However, the cruise control in my honda crv has never run into phantom breaking. CRV has its own issue of not seeing traffic far enough and doing urgent brakes.

    Sometimes Tesla's bugs are just funny!

    Happens to my model 3 all the time. Especially around traffic lights.

    SR+ 2019.8.3 Map is no longer in Sat view

    I know SR+ is not supposed to have Satellite view but my SR+ was delivered with Satellite view and there was no option to change the view. This update fixed it and there is no more satellite view. Sat view is annoying TBH.

    About to take the M3 SR+ Plunge! Final Questions & Neat Findings! Halp!

    SR+ cannot open garage door. However, you can get a smart garage door opener which can be controlled by Alexa/Google Home/Ifttt. Its still not as good as, say, summon auto opening garage door. However, you can still do some cool stuff.

    SR+ 2019.8.3 Map is no longer in Sat view

    Yes, it's matte grey mode (the default view in Google maps). I don't see any option to go back to satelite view. Are you on standard + with partial premium interiors?

    SR+ 2019.8.3 Map is no longer in Sat view

    When I got my SR+ last week, it was in Sat view. After today's update maps are no longer in sattelite view. Immersive audio option is also fixed. Although, I can't feel a difference in sound quality.

    Brand New model 3 had to be towed

    I was getting it done in Bellevue. They replaced the MCU and it hasn't crashed even once after that (Yay!). It seems like these folks had a case open with tesla engineering and were waiting for their go ahead before they replaced the parts.

    Brand New model 3 had to be towed

    Thank you so much for responses. 7 day return window is only eligible if you don't take test drive, right? I already took test drive before I bought it so it doesn't apply to me I guess. There is still 24 hour return window still applicable since I had car for few hours only. I love the car and...

    Brand New model 3 had to be towed

    I got delivery 3 days ago and once I hit interstate, screen went into reboot loop. I was able to drive car fine, however, turn signals didn't work anymore. I called Tesla and they towed car back to dealer. No updates for 3 days and today they say that they are replacing computer on the car and...
