    FS 2015 Tesla Model S 85D, AP1, Midnight Silver, 61k Miles, Warranty 2022 / 96k Miles

    Hi everyone, My wife and I have decided to sell our Model S to upgrade to a family sized Model X SUV. Since we plan to road trip with two growing kiddos, it seems the natural choice. I've been driving a few different Model S since early 2016. The sleek look, low ride-height, and performance...

    Watching Archer and came across this little nugget to explain why Autopilot is actually the perfect name for Tesla’s driving system.

    Would you like to see fsd as a subscription option?

    I tweeted to elon about his thoughts of full self driving as an subscription option, granted i probably wont get a reply, but would you all like to see it available as a subscription? I feel it would be better than paying 6-8K for fsd, because some people cant swallow the deep price, therefore a...

    Autopilot speed change when going to new highway

    I've noticed this a few times under the same conditions. I don't have the FSD autopilot, just the standard one that came with my long range, all-wheel drive. When I'm on a highway with the autopilot set to the current speed limit, then I transition to a new highway where the speed limit is...

    Poll: August 16th, 2019 FSD Price increase (or not)

    Over the past month there has been a lot written here in TMC, re FSD functionality, FSD timing, and impending FSD price increase on 8/16/19 - as tweeted by Mr. Musk in July. So, I'm curious how the TMC population feels about things today, now that 8/16/19 is about to (or already has) come to a...

    Ontario: Autopilot issues between 400 and Orillia?

    Does anyone else have issues heading north on HWY 11 after the 400 split? For some reason it suddenly drops to 50 kph and sometimes as low as 40 kph even though the posted limit is 90. No signage that the car would be possibly misinterpreting so far as I could see. I was fortunate that nobody...

    FSD in the EU

    Hi All, I keep reading about restrictions on FSD/Autopilot within the EU area. What restrictions do these laws place on the FSD/Autopilot product? How does this affect the product both today; and in the near-future? If Elon actually pulled off feature-complete FSD; what would we EU citisens...

    Hi all Newbie here. I'm considering a model 3, and took one for a test drive today. Overall, my impressions were really positive. Drivability, comfort, and acceleration were everything I expected and more. However, there was one thing which bugged me: the cruise control on autopilot was...

    Avoid Crashes? Tesla Shows 4 Video Examples Of Autopilot Action

    Twitter was the chosen platform to spread the word. It is clear no car can avoid all accidents, but Tesla stressed this recently. Not without reason: there have been videos of people sleeping in their EVs while Autopilot was working. And even more absurd stuff you all surely heard about...

    Should I buy the "full self driving option"?

    Here is a demo of the current state of development with "full self driving". Full self driving involves complex game theory. For example, in crowded New York city, if you do not nudge your way through a crowd of people continuously jaywalking, you will never be able to cross the intersection...

    Near freeway divider collision - on autopilot

    This was a very scary 4th of July traveling experience on the 55 north / 91 east interchange while on autopilot. I’ve also included the dashcam videos for review. I also did a bug report and had a 30 min call with Tesla to report the incident. I’m on version 2019.20.4.2 Me and a passenger were...

    Autopilot does not give priority to the centerline

    I wonder if others have noticed this. When I use autopilot and there is a break in the right hand lane marking for a right hand turn lane, autopilot veers to the right unexpectedly. While I have gotten used to this, it still concerns passengers. Wouldn't you think that autopilot should give...

    Autopilot getting worse

    I seem to be having more and more false braking with autopilot, and it's abrupt. Just a matter of time before I get rear ended. Mostly with left turn-offs of a freeway, where you have a gap in the line so the car wants to center itself, and then it see's the white line and slams on the brakes...

    Got Clarification of User Manuals reference to reading road signs (it does not)

    Two weeks ago, I was reading through the most recent version of the Model 3 Owners manual, and the way it was written, it made it sound like the Model 3 had the abillity to read road signs. More specifically, it stated: You can also specify how the speed limit is determined: • Relative - The...

    Autopilot Tricked by Spilled Paint in Road

    Tesla autopilot on 2019.16.2 veers quickly to the right after going through the light at the intersection. A can of spilled paint, probably off of a work truck, created a white line in the road. Enough of a distraction for autopilot to suddenly veer to the right and the need to me to take...

    New regulations in Europe - Update to 16.2 or keep 12.x?

    I'm trying to make my mind up on whether to update my Model S to the new version 2019.16.2, or staying on the "old" 2019.12.1 For the folks in US the doubt doesn't exist at all, but for us in the old continent it looks like AP got crippled by the new UN/EU regulations. Nevertheless I cannot...

    Post-delivery AP/FSD Price Changes

    Trend in Model 3 software configurations over time

    Does Standard Autopilot Swerve to Avoid Collision?

    Does anyone know if standard AP can actually swerve out of the way to avoid collisions? Or is this only an Enhanced Autopilot (EAP) feature? I'm aware that it won't change lanes, so I'm worried that it'll only brake to avoid collisions. It was this video that had me curious about the answer...

    New adaptive suspension, lean into curves?

    Any chance the new adaptive suspension could use autopilot cameras to see or predict an upcoming curve and "lean" into the curve? The car would lower inside wheels suspension or raise outside to make the curve more comfortable. Seems plausible, and very cool, to me.

    2018 Model S Doing Lane Correction with AP Disengaged?

    I noticed something 'strange' recently with my 2018 Model S 75D (AP v9) - while driving home, on side streets, it felt like my alignment was a bit off, and the car was 'pulling' slightly (in this case, to the left (median lane) whenever I would allow the wheels to cross over the actual lane...

    Standard AutoPilot needs to switch lanes

    I picked up my Model 3 this passed Saturday and it came with the standard AP. Unfortunately it is missing one feature that should not be a part of FSD and that is the ability to switch lanes when I put on my turn signal. I understand if I want it to suggest lane changes or do them by itself I...

    How are people applying enough force in NOA steering?

    With the 2019.8.5 update, the Navigate On Autopilot is an order of magnitude more powerful. In fact it's amazing. But I find it tricky to satisfy "sufficient resistance" on the steering wheel. If I just rest my right hand relaxed on the wheel like previously, it seems to nag too easily. That's...
