Might be a bit early to be saying things like that, no?
A lot of us don't even have the update yet :wink:
Sorry, but this is pure FUD.Don't update to 7.1 without knowing what you loose. Nag every 5 minutes, jiggle wheel, no autosteer or TACC in many situations.
See Firmware 7.1
Before we start down the FUD train, each of those came from 1 person, and then 2 minutes later another person said "nope, that's not true, I just drove X minutes/X miles without a nag"
Sorry, but this is pure FUD.
The only difference I've seen is the limitation of 5 mph over posted speed on secondary roads. In general it seems to work a bit better on secondary roads in that it can operate on sections it couldn't before.
The supposed nag is non-existent in my car and I've driven over 2 hours using AP. I have no idea what you mean by "jiggle wheel", it's always been the case that if the warning to hold the wheel came on, if you apply pressure to the wheel it goes away.
Do you even own a Tesla?
No, I do not, and although I've test driven a few I don't consider that a lot of experience. However, I have read most of the thread and seen multiple reports of the 5 minute nag and the jiggle problem, and of situations in which the car doesn't go with the flow of traffic in situations it used to.
I'm glad you said what you said: I'd rather be wrong. I'll come delete my posts within a day if I turn out to be wrong (such as 99% of the people reporting improvements and/or no problems).

Wow... Really??? You started a FUD thread and you don't even have the car to know what the hell you're talking about???
Wow...

I agree, I haven't seen much that you are giving up. I think I heard something about losing the "source" button on the radio control too (to the right of the equalizer button). That and the ability to go more than 5mph over the speed limit on secondary roads on autopilot. I've driven more than 2 hours, much of that with autopilot since the update and I don't notice any more "nag" than before. I didn't seem to take away too much.
Maybe I'm too much of a sheep, but if there is an update from Tesla, then I want it. Because it's what Tesla wants to have cars do and work like today. I gave up the "I bought a car and it's the way I bought it from now forever" when I got the Tesla. It's a platform and things will change, some I will like, some I may not. But it's how Tesla wants the cars to behave now. And the next update will be how they want them to behave then. But I bought the car going in with the idea things will change over time. I, for one, welcome our Tesla overlords and am along for the ride. I find it interesting to see what's coming next, more than I miss what was. Baaah....
FUD would be saying it is bad. I said to go look at the thread describing people's experiences. There is a huge difference.
Also, I have been following Tesla for a long time. I'd like for them to succeed. I even own a few shares, so if anything, I'd like their value to go up. I want happy drivers and other drivers on the road that aren't fatigued while I'm out there. I'd like to own one someday. I'm trying to see if I can apply for a loan for one. What does owning one have to do with it? They are coming out with a less expensive Model 3 soon(ish?) supposedly, so the faster these ninny-state problems get dealt with the better. If 7.1 is genuinely OK, a little "read the results" warning from me won't stop the regular stuff that just works right from going forward.
See Firmware 7.1 to know what features you loose when going from 7.0 to 7.1.
Just from memory reading the thread:
- Nag every 5 minutes.
- Must jiggle wheel a precise amount, not a little, not a lot, otherwise you haven't answered nag.
- No TACC/Autosteer on many roads you used to use it on.
Over half the people who had regular routes using 7.0 autosteer and TACC are not able to use autosteer and TACC in as an effective manner with 7.1 on those same regular routes.
Read the thread to be sure you know what changed before updating.
Please provide multiple links.
