I hope they implement a way to either enable TACC or FSD based on which button is pressed without having to act like a trained chimp changing driver profiles and putting up with all the hassles caused when your music or seat position changes based on the driver profile. Yesterday I had to do a...

haha I'd love to buy an after-market kit to reenable TACC/cruise control in my car after the FSD 12 update disabled easy access to TACC. I wish I could go back to Version 11 and TACC. Crazy they are now trying to sell FSD this way. I wouldn't pay a cent for FSD if it means I no longer have...

\\ I'm basically in the same situation. What an utter disgrace Tesla has become with cramming FSD down the throats of customers who paid a bunch of money and waited years only to end up in a situation where they take away easy access to TACC for cruise control if you dare want to try out the...

Except now they've taken away the assistance we've always had with TACC maintaining the set speed like any decent car from 1990s. It's astounding how for all the talk about Tesla driving aids being so advanced, if you've paid a bunch of money for FSD, you no longer have easy access to cruise...

Yikes it is honestly staggering to me how blinded people get with their love and devotion to a commercial company that it becomes like a part of their identity, religion, or tribe. I used to be somewhat a part of this phenomenon and was so proud of the day I got myself a TDG (Tesla "Driver's"...

I think you just described the use case for why having easy access to TACC by itself is still so essential. There are situations where you may want to drive your car and just have help with speed control. Well, I'm all for embarking things :) I've embraced FSD and paid for it when it wasn't...

Good question. When I'm driving long distances on an Interstate, probably very rarely. When I'm driving around in the DC area, probably quite often. FSD or TACC used to be such a great driving aid. I can activate TACC as cruise control with one button press. Or I could activate FSD with one...

That's a good question. I'm quite experienced in using FSD and have been one of the first beta testers of the software so I'm quite familiar with using it. It's not that V12 is more or less able to circumvent certain situations but rather that I prefer driving my car in certain areas without...

haha I'm so happy Tesla has customers like you who will make excuses and accept anything they do. I used to be like that too wearing my Tesla hat everywhere I went and telling everyone how great Tesla is and how they know what is best but no more. Wow just listen to yourself. It used to be that...

I am aware that for FSD I can set the speed I wish with an offset, which I have done. The problem is I no longer have access to TACC just by itself as a form of cruise control. This is essential for me for driving in the DC area with lots of speed cameras everywhere and with me driving more...

I used to have access to basic cruise control to maintain a set speed. This is essential in areas with lots of speed cameras, as we do in DC. This is an essential feature I use ALL the time, until the "FSD Crammed Down Your Throat" update came along. The two have been separate. I used to...

This has been a slow journey for me, but I think a turning point was when I tried to activate cruise control to maintain a set speed because there's a speed camera coming up, and the car just flat out tells me it is not going to give me cruise control because it would rather determine the speed...

After looking forward to getting the V12 upgrade, now that I have received it, especially if this is where things are going, I absolutely regret purchasing FSD and will never buy this feature again if we buy another Tesla. With Ver 11 Beta, I had a truly useful feature in my car. I would let...

Every update I get, I check for Sentry Live View and nothing :( Really sucks to not have access to such a useful feature.

I really think the solution is what a cautious/responsible human driver would do. Most human drivers offset well away from road brush, traffic islands and curbs. Hardly anyone drives with the mindset let's see how close I can get :) I think FSD should offset well away from curbs, traffic...

Does anyone have any recommendations for a Tesla Certified body shop in the DC/Maryland area? Preferably, close to Bethesda/Rockville. I know tesla now has a body shop in Rockville. Has anyone been there? I appreciate any recommendations for a skilled body shop that mostly works on high end...

For all the toys and games added, live sentry view will be something that is super useful for everyone with a pre-2021 car with MCU 2.0.

I wish we could select the option to be more assertive when accelerating from a stop and less assertive with lane changes or be able to change those settings manually.

Does anyone have a recommendation for a Tesla Certified body shop in the Bethesda/Rockville area? I know tesla now has a body shop in Rockville. Has anyone used them? I'd like to take the car to a shop that works on high-end cars with lots of experience and can do a great job color matching...

I wish we had any news on when pre 2021 cars with MCU 2.0 can expect to have access to Live View.

Anyone else have any experience with the Rockville Tesla body shop?

Thanks! This is useful to know. Is this covered by the factory warranty as well as the ESA extended warranty? Do the G revision lights perform better? The lights in my car suck compared to the bi-xenon lights I had in my 2007(!!!) E550. I had the service center aim them a bit higher and that...

Is there a technical reason why it can't work in pre 2021 cars with HW 2.0/FSD3?

Just got the new update and sad to report no Sentry View with HW 2.0 and FSD 3.0 :(

I just received the new Android update that supports Live View and my firmware version should have Live View support from what I gather but unfortunately the option to turn on Live View is not visible. I really hope they enable this feature for MCU 2.0 cars made before 2021. This is such a...

Could someone please let us know if Live View works on pre 2021 cars with HW 2.0? I would not know for a while because they will have to merge that code with FSD Beta. This is one of the biggest features I've been waiting for and I really hope it is available fleetwide as long as you have HW 2.0.

I can actually handle DC traffic just fine. Helps to have a bit of extra power in case that's needed :) I do take Uber/Lyft sometimes but that's mostly if I don't feel comfortable with the parking situation or I drive to a part of town that's sketchy. Plan to buy a Kona EV next year for when...

Wow someone finally explained this in a way that could not be any clearer! Thank you. haha for all of us who thought we were engaging extra parking brake power by long pressing the parking brake :)

Can you at least download high quality when on WIFI to play not on WIFI? I really wish the Spotify Player downloaded all playlists in highest possible quality. I sometimes have issues with communication handoff between my house WIFI and 4G when driving away and playing music. Spotify music...

Could we expect Sentry Live Mode to work on pre 2021 cars with MCU 2.0 (And HW 3.0)?

The driveway was as steep as I remember. Maybe about 30 degrees but there was no issue. I long pressed the parking brake until I saw the red parking brake icon turn on and heard the parking brake engage. Still not sure what's so different with long pressing Park and not doing so because you...

What's the expected music quality for the Tesla Tidal player? Now if they could fix the USB music player bugs such as not resuming music where you left off...

I hope they gave you a decent loaner.

Thanks! I wonder if mobile service can drop off this part if they are in the area. Anyone had any luck having this covered under warranty? Whatever they made these center caps off of is not the least bit durable. All 4 center caps are delaminating and pealing and look so ugly.

Not just the icon but you hear something mechanically engaging when you long press on P. I wish I knew what that was and if that's different from just pressing Park for sure. Like you, I used to think long pressing Park engages "extra" brakes because of the extra sound I hear! :)

Okay you all have convinced me that the car should hold. Just to be on the safe side, I'm going to put two bricks at each rear wheel. Can someone explain to me though if the car by default does not engage the parking brake and long pressing "Park" is what engages the parking brake? If I don't...

Okay I'll just get a couple of wheel chocks then and remember to long press on Park to engage the parking brake. By default, does the car not engage the parking brakes? What brakes are engaged by default when Park is not long pressed? I'll be parking at an Ambassador's Residence in DC so if...

Thank! Is there any consensus that with engaging the parking brakes by long pressing Park, wheel chocks are unnecessary on a very steep driveway?

Good idea but not possible as the driveway is just about 1.5 car widths wide.

I have to park my car later this week on a very steep driveway for several hours and I want to be absolutely sure the car will not slide down. Am I worrying about something I should not worry about or should I buy a couple of wheel chocks from Amazon? Any recommendations? These are what I'm...

My center wheel caps are starting to look really horrible as they delaminate and essentially start peeling away. They were already starting to peel when I took delivery of the car and I should have had them replace it at that time. Are these covered under warranty? How can I get these center...

Wow this is GREAT news but the real value and use case for waypoints is for all the local drives we do with FSD Beta using our special/custom local routes so the drives can be repeated. My daily work commute for example takes a route quite different from the autogenerated route and it's oh so...

Except the repeater camera views are thumbnail sized small videos with no way to make then "full screen." People have been asking to see the repeater camera views in full screen mode for years since this feature was first released but we keep getting new games added to the car instead :) If you...

Yeah I'm really paranoid of curb damage because I've seen a few YouTube videos where that has already happened. I too am even more careful with parked cars, joggers, and cyclists. Especially for joggers and cyclists, I want the car to give them half a lane of clearance not just for safety but...

Then why have custom settings for Autopilot? Your post also misses the point that they are ALREADY allowing customization of a bunch of those attributes but as one of 3 different levels of behavior. My suggestion separates out the options they are already allowing as a broader options group. I...

Not having 360 view sucks. What sucks even more is how the ultrasonic stop counting down after 12 or 10 inches. So just when you are dealing with tight clearances for a tricks parking situation the ultrasonic sensors stop counting down and starts yelling and beeping STOP STOP STOP. When I pull...

This is another reason why I wish they had an option for request lane change confirmation. For anyone who likes it the way it is can simply decide to not use that option. Another option I wish they had was an option to get out of the way from fast approaching traffic in the rear. This is...

Yup, imagine if our politics were somewhere in the middle and guided by logic. This is what happens when congressional districts are gerrymandered to essentially create the most hyper partisan representatives possible. I feel the majority of the country are somewhere in the middle but they are...

I probably fall under the more cautious category of FSD Beta users and I'm wondering if my expectation of offset distance from curbs, curbed "traffic islands," roadside brush and other obstacles is unreasonable. By this what I mean is that when I supervise FSD Beta, I essentially want to have...

Wait. Live View is not available in pre 2021 cars even if they have MCU 2.0 and FSD HW 3.0?
