chill mode is not chill

    TACC stopping time too short for comfort.

    I use the basic TACC (commonly called adaptive cruise control) very frequently when my itinerary goes thru lot of long sections of straight roads(. When it comes to an intersection with car(s) already stopped there, the M3 RWD does not start slowing down until it is about 5 car length from the...

    Autosteering chooses curve speed like a racedriver, is that expected?

    So I am quite new to the Tesla experience (1 month, 2500km with a 2018 Model S EAP AP2.5), but I can't get my head around how Autosteering selects speed, and how much I can trust or use it. Is there anywhere a good description of it? The user manual is not very detailed on this topic. What I...

    When on AutoPilot wants to move from right lane to left lane on its own!!

    Today, driving into Tucson from the south my MY LR AWD (2023) in autopilot and car wanted to switch lanes from the right lane to the passing lane about every minute or less during the ride. Except, I didn't want to move from the right lane?!?!? I did not indicate a turn or make any move that...

    Using FSD for 3 months - Is my experience typical?

    I own a '23 MYLR which I've had since Feb, no FSD. My wife just bought a '23 M3P that came with FSD for 3 months which just ended. I've run FSD in a combination of highway, suburban, and rural environments. Two things are very clear to me after three months. First, it's performance ranges...

    New AutoPilot is horrible after update

    I have been using Tesla Basic AP since 2018. Updated the car yesterday. First drive was my usual 40 mile drive I’ve made with AP for 6 years. Immediately I notice the AP nag is more often and turns red way faster. I drive 70-80 mph , 90% highway. After getting way more bags than I’ve ever...

    Car slowing unnecessarily for slower cars in adjacent lane on EAP for anyone else?

    For several months now, when in bumper-to-bumper traffic, if my lane (usually the HOV lane, to the far left) is moving faster than the traffic in the lane to my right, my car, while on EAP, will suddenly lock onto one of the cars in the lane to the right and slow down as if it's actually in my...

    FSD suddenly jerks wheel

    I was coming home yesterday evening and decided to try out FSD with the family in the car since I hadn't used it in a while. There is a car in front of me stopped at the light and a car next to me in the left lane going about the same speed. As we slow down to about 5mph and approach the car in...

    FSD - Stop & Go Traffic

    Trying to gain more confidence using FSD on a 45mph road, one lane in each direction. My question is, do you feel confident that after the car goes forward it will stop? I would apply the brakes or remove my foot from the accelerator before FSD stops the car. It seems nerve wracking. Just...

    FSD Owners - Do any of you prefer leaving it off?

    I own FSD. My opinion is FSD drives like an erratic teenager first time driver. Sometimes it's so slow it annoys you. Other times it leaves so little distance it scares you. It's jerky and not smooth. It automatically does lane changes on its own which I'd rather leave off and initiate myself...

    FSD 11.4.4 Runs Red Light

    Running FSD 11.4.4. I'm in lane #2 of two lanes turning left at a light. The intersection is not square, more of a 120 degree turn to the right. FSD stops for the light as expected. The opposing northbound traffic left turn signal turns green. FSD decides to proceed into opposing traffic...

    Autopilot is getting worse, not better.

    I’m into my 7th year of my 2nd Tesla, this one being a 3P. It’s 3 years old. In this 7 year period in my opinion autopilot has gone from good to bad. It’s getting worse and worse as time goes by. For me, my car took a massive step backwards when Musk announced cars would navigate using vision...

    FSD drives insanely fast??

    RWD M3 2023 with the latest beta for FSD. This morning I took it for my first trip with FSD and it was accelerating insanely fast out of turns. Also seemed very close to cars on neighborhood streets. How do I make it drive slower? Chill mode is on.

    Phantom Braking getting worse - any ideas on how to stop it?

    Just took a trip from Texas to Arizona on I-10 in my 2020 LR M3. From West TX to middle of AZ had about 15 instances of phantom braking. HARD braking - from 80 mph to 25 mph in seconds. Thankfully no traffic behind me or they could have easily hit me from the drastic slowdown. Had previously had...

    {Feature Request Model 3/Y] Chill+ would be great. 3rd option needed.

    For the first couple of years that I owned my M3, I never took it out of standard acceleration. Who could resist? Too much fun. But eventually I started to see the merits of chill mode. It’s better for passengers, better on range, and probably better for the tires, among other things. I now...

    11.3.3 First Drive Reactions

    Took a drive today from south of Seattle to Snoqualmie Pass and back, on both city streets and freeways. Overall, I saw some behaviors that are better than prior FSD beta versions, but some that really need work: 1) This version DOES NOT recognize emergency vehicles with lights on. I was on...

    Phantom braking when a car is following you.

    Near my house is a spot on a 45 MPH highway where 10.69.2.2 always puts on the brakes, hard. It almost comes to a stop before picking up speed again. I've reported it multiple times. Today there was a car behind me for the first time. When I reached the phantom braking spot, instead of...

    AP/cruise smoothness

    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...
