Ohh i havent seen it pop up yet, will it appear in the app also or just the car?

It’ll show up in both, and if notifications are on both me and my partner’s iWatch’s will go off.
You can then start the update from your watch or app. Enjoy.

Ohh cool, thanks my first update.
Not showing yet so i guess it will turn up at some stage.
Car is connected to wifi.

I just found a couple of other new (to me) bits that were turned off.
Over speed warning (i need this haha), lane departure warning and assist were all turned off.

Popped up as a notification on the phone when I woke up this morning. I am on advanced updates though.

What do you guys recommend about this?

Say’s recommended 42 but they are a bit higher. This is cold in the shed.

Should i trust the servo tyre thing and set them down to 42?

Mine were delivered around 46-47 as well, I haven't bothered doing anything with them.

I definitely don't trust readings at the servo, I still need to get myself a pump / repair kit.

So just checked in car, and it says that the new adaptive headlights are now active. Will have to check it out at night but good news!

If i flick over to advanced it would be interesting to see how long it takes to go looking for updates.
Hopefully its not like opting in to apple beta- that never ends well.. haha

This update is part of a "Recall" so I assume it'll pump out fairly quickly regardless.

Be really interested to see some before and after footage of the matrix headlights being enabled.
If mine doesnt update today, and if you like, i can go out tonight a set distance from a wall and take some photos/video or whatever to compare..

I’d be reducing that to the recommended cold pressure, otherwise you will have excessive centre tyre wear. The TPMS will not show new readings until you drive

Will do, my chinese air compressor doesnt seem very calibrated so ill go to the servo (YICK!)

I couldn’t handle going to a servo so I bought a decent quality air guage with trigger for my compressor. Tesla’s use a lot of tyre air so it has been well used

I reakon ill do the same.
Went to the servo and they actually were not that high. Probably about right.
They are all indicating 44 now

Second, any mobile rim repair recommendations?

My recommendation is to not fix it . That will be the first kerb rash of many. After the second and third one, you start to not care any more.

yep thats what my wife said haha, least got the first one outta the way now not to care, or protect the other rims

left rear gonna be the headache given the longer wheelbase till I get used to it, so gotta be more mindful turning left not clipping curb corners in the process

on another note, was playing beach buggy the vol was very low, max in game but couldnt use scrolly to increase vol

anyone had this issue?
