Back up camera guide lines shifted to the right of reality

[EVaddict]

The guide lines from the rear back up camera on my M3 are shifted to the right of where the tires actually are. In the first picture, you can see where the lines are exactly on top of the blue tape on the floor of the garage:

In this photo, you can see that in reality, where the blue tape and hence the backup guide lines actually line up with respect to the vehicle's position:

It seems like it's a calibration issue or a software issue. Anyone else have the same problem?

How do I change album permissions? I don't see anywhere to do that under the album.

How do I edit my original post? I don't see an edit button option anymore. Does it disappear after a while? I do see an edit option for this post right here - this is the second edit that i'm typing right now.

The edit button is available for a short time and then disappears.

I don't think the backup camera is perfectly centered on the Model 3. Noticed this while washing car for first time, but I never checked to see if they accounted for this on the guidelines or not.

Try posting your photos a different way. I don’t use the TMC “album” function so can’t advise you about that. I read TMC on my iPad so my interface may be different than what you see.

Let's try this again:

That explains why I can’t center car in a parking space using the rear camera arrows!

Yay photos finally. I agree, I backed up into supercharger spot once and was too close to the right side even though lines were centered into the spot.

If you think about it, the rear camera mounting needs to be spot on and not subject to any left-to-right angulation. I know that I had this issue with my old 2013 S85. I have not studied how the rear camera on my P3D+ is mounted. Maybe the mounting screws can be loosened and the camera tweaked a bit.

I’ve noticed this same thing on my 3 since new, though I never did the work you did to prove it. Mine is shifted in the same direction as yours.

i knew i wasn't a crappy parker

Well, I added it to my "due bill" for items to be fixed. I'm doubtful that the SC will be able to do anything about it. I'll post an update after i hear back.

I noticed this too. Backed into a space to Supercharge yesterday. According to the guidlines, I was perfectly centered. When I got out, I was really off to one side.

Would this not be software fixable? Wort reporting the bug to Tesla?

 

[qwertzy]

I also find that the left guide line is inside the tire while the right guide line is outside. Are all Model 3s like this?

Any update on this issue?

Intentionally offset give extra opening room for the driver's door of the car parking next to you. Less chance for dings. This extra distance allows the doors of the majority of cars to fall into the second detent without touching your car.
