AP2 self parking

[adwang]

My AP2 S90D with 17.42.a88c8d5 seems eager to do self-park every time I am approaching traffic light or in a traffic jam. See the picture attached.

I've tried to let it engage self-parking at parking lot, I've only succeeded twice, ever since perpendicular parking was available.

I've noticed a similar issue. Mine only shows the P on the main dashboard though in traffic. It never actually had it show on the main screen like this

Mine was doing this for quite some time, but I just put it into "have a giggle" category.

Perpendicular parking has been working almost flawlessly for me since I have the car. There was only one occurrence where I thought the car came too close to the car on the right side. I always have my foot over brake anyway, just in case.

It does seem to show "P" in the dash more frequently now, but I think it has to do with overall quicker/more accurate feedback from the sensors around the car after 2017.42.

I believe the car is being tricked into thinking it is a space, due to the motion of the vehicles around it. If a small gap is traveling at the same speed, it will appear as a larger gap.

It only shows on the main screen once you put the car in reverse.

We've seen it believe there is a parking spot when stopped at a light in the middle of traffic - and also when pulling past wide sidewalks.

So far, we haven't been able to get it to find a real parking space...

Literally I’m in the same boat too. Maybe it’s a software bug or something? I do have HW2.5 so I’m wondering if that has anything to do with it.

In my previous Range Rover, you had to actively select that you are looking for a parking spot before the system started reporting them. The Tesla system it is continually looking, so its not surprising that you get a false positive when you are driving slowly, and pass a gap of appropriate size between two cars. I sometimes have this shown on the opposite side of the road when driving on a narrow two way road as well. AP1 here.

Same for me with HW2. Almost always shows a P when stopped at a traffic light with a solid row of cars next to me. Never in a parking lot with perfectly good real parking spaces. 2017.50.2 software. No changes noticed with any of the recent upgrades.
