Thx! Keeping my fingers crossed as I have the M3P. Not sure if it will trickle down or not. Don't have lane changing now but would love to have it.
I noticed that too, though it was welcome. We used to get "Passenger Airbag Off" for a while at startup, even with a passenger. Then it would disappear. So was the airbag then on or off? Now it says it is on, which is reassuring.
Were you in Autopilot at the time? My release notes suggest it’ll only alert if the car is on AP, or possibly even NoA.

This was implemented on AP1 several years back, but pretty quickly pulled because it’s implementation was pretty terrible. Hopefully it works better now .
Thanks. With this guidance, I was able to confirm Stop Sign Warning works on my 2018 MS with new upgrade to HW 3.0.
I had to find a stop sign on a road with very light traffic for safety, but also center line markings so that Auto Steer would activate.
The warning is a very large red stop sign display + audible alarm.
My Release notes have been empty now for the last few updates. I have 2017 MS, MCU1, AP2.5, any suggestions?

MCU1 is the culprit, as Tesla uses the browser to display the release notes, and the browser on MCU1 has been broken for at least a year now.
Depends what you mean by "approach". You have to be in autosteer, and have to NOT take action to stop the car in time. Only then will it warn you and drop out of AP. And I have HW3.0 and tested it (very carefully with no other cars around) and works every time. I was actually quite impressed, though scared!

This will be my first SU since they replaced my MCU1. Fingers crossed.

I'd love this. Adaptive cruise without fear of phantom braking scaring the crap out of my passengers on deserted roads.
As for the request for non-adaptive in a snow storm..... erm..... not sure this is a good time to not be 100% hands and pedal IMHO!
I think I have Scheduled Departure figured out. My primary interest is having the battery warmed, reconditioned, on cold mornings so that I don't see the dotted lines of reduced regeneration on the kW display when I first start driving in the morning. This is especially important when I am traveling in the mountains because I don't like the feel of lost regeneration when I come down a grade. I understand that regeneration has to be limited when near 100% SOC or excessively cold weather, but I have been getting some dotted lines when the outside temperature is 55 F at 80% or even 75% SOC.
My first tests of SD failed to eliminate the dotted lines, but I now believe I was not allowing enough time margin. It appears the system gives first priority for power to charging to reach your target SOC, which makes sense. It starts the car charging in time to finish the charge perhaps an hour before your SD time. Then I see that it continues to draw power from my HPWC in the final hour as it warms the battery. Here in SCE territory Super Off Peak Time of Use ends at 8 am, and I rarely need to leave earlier than that (retired), so 8 am works fine as a departure time.

Since it was warranty work they would only replace the exact part, so I got a "remanufactured" MCU1. I assume this meant that they replaced the troublesome eMMC chip off of another failed return unit.

Another enhancement I noticed, I think in 40.2.1 (but could have maybe been in 40.1) - music search now starts playing right away if it finds a close match. Original behavior before Spotify was that searching for a song would play a Slacker station based on the song (and would usually start with that particular song if it hadn't already played recently). After V10, the voice search always pulled up search results, exactly as if you had simply tapped the magnifying glass and typed in the string you say. Now, most of the time it would start playing the song immediately from Spotify, unless my search was crummy.

Everything went OK updating to 2019.40.2.1. The touchscreen works, no release notes displayed because of the ongoing MCU1 browser crap, but most of the functionality I read about here isn't going to do me much good anyway on my late 2016 MS. It might be my imagination, but the UHF Media Player seems to sound better than before when playing my FLAC files through the USB.

40.2.1 needs fix from what I have seen from my driving:
TACC displays random speed limits that are irrelevant to extreme left lane. So, my car slows down and on HOV imagine how irate other drivers would be when they behind my car.
Had to disable TACC/AP as the car suddenly slows down because adjacent lanes that are non HOV have packed volume of cars. This was true on non-HOV lanes too as I found out later. Cars that were tailgating me quickly zipped to other lanes when my brake lights came on. Less safe I would say.
Recognition of Stop signs did not work even once. Fail there.
I got this warning message " Right door pillar camera blocked or blinded" and my AP did not work even tho I had engaged both TACC and AP. I saw briefly it said something like "feature not available."
