Yes, you can do that. It's in the settings, you can make autosteer require two clicks of the right scroll wheel instead of one.

If care about what's behind you, you aren't driving your Plaid correctly!I laugh out loud when I read about people complaining about the rear view mirror view.
In 4 days I will go in for my very first service visit since delivery ~2 weeks ago, after I made my initial list of issues.
It’s sad that I was almost laughed at in the local FB forum last night when I mentioned the list is ~50 long. Nothing I found was new to this thread, or wasn’t thoroughly researched in some other threads here on TMC, and roughly 1/2 of them have functional implications.
One respected local detailing shop owner told me to tone down expectation, that 20 year old accords have better fit and finishes… And on top of that the Austin Service Center has frequently turned down warranty repairs simply due to cosmetic mods. As an example, if the caliper is painted, they won’t even look at it if you ever experience noise down in your suspension.
There clearly are Service Centers that are responsive and I guess Austin Service Center, even being the HQ location for Tesla, isn’t one of them. Sad.
Good luck to me. Will report back what they do/won’t do.

At "~50 items" you are probably looking at a quarter of them being kicked back as "within spec".

I was thinking maybe it was some sort of negotiation? Bring in ~50 issues, knowing they will not want to fix them all, so you negotiate which ones are most important...
Its like when you really want to sell a car for $10K, you list it for $12K and are ok accepting a bit less when offered as you were REALLY looking for the lower amount to begin with....

Does anyone have squeaking from their windows when it closes the last 1" after the door is closed? I think there's something on my door seal that makes it squeak. I haven't been able to clean it off. I'm thinking of adding a tiny bit of silicone spray, but I'm not sure if it is compatible with the seals. I also have some this stuff, which thinking more, is probably the right thing to try first:

Try some detailing spray first. Avoid silicone. Stopped my shuddering sunroof.
