Confirmed in same parking garage spot, last nite's firmware update. Good to go.Conservative is best, as this thread has shown. I'm really happy they've made this change. The liftgate limit works great, too.

I have two curious questions:
1.) How does the location over-ride work in an under-ground garage with no GPS signal?
2.) Wouldn't it be good if the fwd doors open in the now obsolete "umbrella mode" if it detects rain?
Personally, I don't think it's obsolete and I can imagine some scenarios where it would be useful (e.g. when its raining).1. Presumably the position is approximated from the last known position when you entered the garage. Don't know for sure though.
2. Why do you think "umbrella mode" is obsolete?
Personally, I don't think it's obsolete and I can imagine some scenarios where it would be useful (e.g. when its raining).
However, it sounds like the feature has been removed. That's probably a better word than "obsolete"
It's a real update. (2.24.78) The umbrella mode button is gone too! You must trust the doors! Location awareness button functions to override the "careful" low opening mode, for example if you know where you're parking is clear. I'm wondering if the sensors are now buffering low clearance objects and proposing the lower opening based on sensor readings at a set speed or time? Someone is listening to us on this thread Other new feature is driver's door now opens when you double tap the key fob to unlock, I was wondering when this was coming, now have to wait for the "triple click passenger door open" function so I'm never in trouble for forgetting to open wifey's door. (Hope "they" are still listening)
Hmm, still waiting for my update availability notification. Pretty sure the double press unlock & auto-open front door (if option set) came in a previous release as I already have that. will check my version later today.

I was on 2.20.60 prior to this update and it did not have it.
I have non-PUP, and software update last night. FWD & Trunk open partially now (but I've not tested all cases). My driver door does not open on FOB unlock, I suspect that is only for PUP as others mention, but motors to open are there via screen & handle touch.Question: on new version does driver door open with FOB even if you don't have PUP? That would frustrate me as its one of the only reasons I paid for PUP.
As a stop gap (pun intended), can you place/hang a more obvious artifact in a place the FWD does see and avoid it? Then enable the save this location routine. Then remove the artifacts and maybe MX will remember some possible damage it could not see before.This change has definitely Improved the rear lift gate opening scenario but in my garage it did not at all improve the FWD opening scenario. The scope of detection has not improved so the door still hits my rails on one side (fortunately padded) and the garage door motor on the other side (fortunately just the plastic light cover). What I would like is the ability to constrain opening height in this location. My reading of the release note makes it seem that you still have to trust the door to detect but can override to full open. I simply need to constrain the opening height in this location if the sensors can't detect these obstructions.
I am hoping this comes soon as part of a new release. Then I will be happy with the FWDs in my every day use scenario.
(2.24.78) is the build I'm talking aboutAs a stop gap (pun intended), can you place/hang a more obvious artifact in a place the FWD does see and avoid it? Then enable the save this location routine. Then remove the artifacts and maybe MX will remember some possible damage it could not see before.
If it works, you can play with artifact placement to optimize how FWD open in your garage.
that's not good. People need the partial open feature for rainy days.I stand corrected. The ability to partially open the Falcon Doors when there is no overhead obstruction has indeed been removed. Hopefully it will be added back soon.
Yes tap to close was present, but dbl tap to open driver door is a new feature.Very strange, I'm on 2.20.45 and I have the single press all close feature.
