AP1 ONLY Please -- life after 2018.50.6

[Droschke]

How can I change it to "Rated Range"? The only battery display option that I see are "% used" or "miles".

It's right next to it, to the right.

Another minor change is the PNRD "D" will be blue instead of white when AP is enabled.

Thank you. It was set to "Rated Miles".

 

[Droschke]

Thank you. It was set to "Rated Miles".

It was set to "Rated Miles" and with that setting you get 235 miles @80% for your 2015 S85?

That's 294 miles at 100%. Not possible!

A unicorn!!!

Or pack replaced with a 90, still a unicorn...

To be sure, open the Tesla App, select charging, move the slider to the right, see what the range says at 100%

That ^^^ should be directed to @RobK, not me. He is the one with the claim.

I don't think you can divide 235 by .8 to calculate milage at 100%. IMHO the battery capacity is non-linear after you reach 75 or 80%. On my trip to Verona, WI from Overland Park, KS I used to charge the battery to 100% and the indicator would show 267 miles.

I did that and at 100% it showed 262 miles.

Agreed with all of this but it still seems they could have done all of it w/o moving the gear indicator line from the right to the left.

(Picking a random UI message to reply to)

I spent a lot of yesterday driving around on 2020.48.37.1 (which was new to me, coming from 2020.40.1). I have to say for all of the drama around moving PRND I actually didn't find it that big of a deal. Yeah I wish they hadn't done this completely gratuitous UI change, but it didn't bother me nearly as much as I thought it would.

It's not clear to me if they changed the shade of gray for PRND. I found the letters that were not selected to be hard to read, and I don't remember that from before. The blue "D" for autopilot is good...it's additional reinforcement for when you've got AP engaged.

I think I like the new arrangement of items at the top of the IC, although the autopilot steering wheel runs into the stuff on the left-hand panel.

One thing that really bugs the heck out of me is the new font for the bottom of the IC that has the digit "0" so rounded that it looks like the letter "O". I found that extremely distracting. Compare the "Car Off" text with say "60%" on the battery meter.

I kinda miss the "T" at the top of the CID. It's not obvious to me why they took it out (and yet they saw fit to mention in the release notes).

I think Spotify works a little better. I liked the additional information for Superchargers on the Nav map (stall count, pin turns grey when a site is full, as occasionally happens here in the SF Bay Area).

So I'm the only one bugged by the fact that they ruined the climate "pop-up" symmetry by making recirc an orb? Lol

No.

What bothers me is that there is consistent late, or complete lack of documentation of these changes in the operators manual.

This is generally not accepted behavior for complex machinery.

If I sit in a loaner, and I can't find the PRND, and the manual is out of date, how is that OK?

Range gate might be going away, I have seen an increasing trend since the last few updates.

I have seen an increase of nearly 20 KM (12 miles) of range "come back" in the past 2 months. 2/3 of my range loss has returned, slowly. It is balancing, as stated in wk057's paper. Now, if we could only get the Supercharging speed fixed......

 

[aerodyne]

According to WK, no chance of that.

The double impact of Chargegate and regengate tell me the only way to get faster charging is to have a warm batt, say 90 deg F or higher, and a low SoC.

I have never been below 26%, but will aim lower once I travel again.

The 267 number? But what was it updated from?

SMT, Scan My Tesla.

I check it every morning. The pack capacity and RM vary a bit with changes in temp and cell balance.

You don't see this in Teslafi.

 

[dark cloud]

Lol, the other definition of "what was it updated from", meaning what was the number before 267?

low 260's May have seen 253 once.

so, not a major change...

Spotify on 2020.48.37.1: where have all the "new releases" gone? There used to be a whole page worth now there is single line with about 6 or so?
