Autopilot for HW2 rolling out to all HW2 cars today!
- Thread starter HumanGenome
- Start date
It depends if you are looking at it as a value or a number. This might be the 13th change after the .2 making it .15
Don't think of the .2 as being a decimal but a version number. The number 2 is lower than the number 15.

This is Tesla Math. It's only compatible with Tesla Time.
The logical consecutive numbers exist, but not all of them make it out to production.
Also, sequence-bsed numbering (where x.15 comes after x.2) is vital because otherwise you'd have releases like:
8.1.8
8.1.9
8.1.95
8.1.99
8.1.999
etc.
It's better all around to go:
8.1.8
8.1.9
8.1.10
8.1.11
which is why it's standard practice.

Some cars require no calibration and are ready to go right after the upgrade. Others have required several hours of driving. Good luck!
Never looked at it from the perspective of not all versions make it out of production - makes a whole lot more sense now.
So in theory, version 17.3.2 came out...then Tesla did internal testing of 17.3.3, 17.3.4, 17.3.5...and then 17.3.15 was finally the one that worked right, and was released.
*Mind blown*
Maybe with the new year they are starting a new version numbering system. Notice how the first number is 17 in 17.3.15. I'm betting that's for 2017. The 3 could be the 3rd sprint (development cycle) of the year or something else...with the 15 being the actual build number.

Depends on which version you got. Those who got the passive mode, didn't see the calibration message at all. Before the passive mode version, people only needed 15-30 minutes of driving. Park the car, and it was out of calibrations.
I just got the update today. Did not see anything regarding calibration. However, I did see the wavy lines and what I would call "over senstive" to side objects that is causing TACC to suddenly slow. Could be dangerous if someone is following too close. I think it is best not to use TACC in that case until they have corrected.

FYI: My car was taking multiple hours of driving to calibrate, so I opened a bug report with [email protected], inspired by a previous post here. I specifically suggested that they have a progress bar or other indication of the calibration process, so owners would not be in the dark about the process.
I got a response within 24 hours, and then a check as to whether AP was yet working. On my next drive (Wed.), my wife noticed that the cruise control circle icon was back on the IC, and then I noticed the road edges were being detected. There was no other notice.
TACC was working pretty much as expected (my wife's car is AP1), but I could not get AutoSteer to engage on any road, despite finding a four-lane divided highway stretch that was congested enough to have traffic below 60 km/h.
So I filed another reply to the same email thread with Tesla, and got a further query asking for exact parameters of the failure: time of day, city, road, direction, weather. I replied back, but have not heard further.
So Tesla really cares about our experiences and is seeking input on any observed anomalies. Please don't just post here, let them know directly at [email protected]!

I tried TACC on the freeway. It works much better there then on the streets. Autosteer is next.
