2019.8.3 and Interior Temperature

[McCaesar]

i installed 2019.8.3 this morning. My car is in Ontario but I’m in LA until tomorrow.

The app is indicating the interior temperature is 37c but the weather in Ontario is only 7c.

This seems very odd that the car would be so warm. When I remotely turn on climate, the reported temp comes down but then goes back up to 37c in a couple of minutes l when I turn the AC off.

Anyone else seeing this after the update?

My car reports 25C, it's parked outside facing towards the sun. 37C seems quite high, but it seems to get warm while the car's basking in the sun. It might be normal if its parked outside. Check again near the evening (around 7pmish) to see if it gets cooler.

Edit:

It's reporting 34C right now (I'm in Mississauga).

Under the sun the interior gets baked. Just shows how well the black interior absorbs the UV rays XD. Also, the heat transfers to the battery. My evening commute home is way more efficient than the morning commute to work. Bonus!

Seems to be normal...

Thanks, @Zirak and @5_+JqckQttqck.

Much appreciated, I’ll try and stop freaking out.

Haha, thanks for that, I've removed it.

Update: Now that the sun has gone down, the interior temperature has returned to normal ambient temperature 6c.

I'm more interested in 2019.8.3! What has changed? 5% performance boost? Anything in the release notes?

Update on model S P100D. Wont know if it's faster until the vehicles on the track. All track it in a few weeks.

I’m downloading it now so I can reply back with a 100% answer but unless it’s different for Canadians the US patch notes were Power Increase, Autosteer Stop Light Warning and Summon with Key Fob.

Sounds like a celcius ferenheit thing since you were in the US?

I think it's just finally spring. Mine got up there today as well, sitting in the sun. Actually needed AC to pre-cool it for the first time this year - FINALLY!

I’m in the US bit the app still reports in Celsius.

I’ve had this problem in the states for a while now. Tesla service center confirmed that the temp was rising well past 100 degrees f. Even in ~30 degrees f weather. Tesla claims the app is turning heat on yet the app shows Hvac as off. Doesn’t happen every day and doesn’t seem to happen when my car is in garage at home. Not on 2019.8 yet.

Normal for the car to soak up the UV and radiate heat. In the winter, the car would get up to 25°C on the inside while it is -10°C outside.

My car is going above 39c in sub 0c weather. Tesla has stated that the app has been triggering the heat but they can’t figure out why (and the app doesn’t actually show Hvac on).

Best.

I feel like it only turns it on when your car is plugged in and charging.. it explains why my car doesn't charge as fast as I thought it would. Since I don't experience any vampire drain as a result of the HVAC.

Mine happens when it is unplugged. It should warm slightly for conditioning for batttery charging. But this type of warming for me is just nutty.

Example right now my car is 99 degrees even though the ambient temp is 53 and my car is 99f less than four hours after being parked.
