Features we didn't know we wanted?

You can un-sync the heating controls so each side of the car gets a different temp air

Syncing is not the issue, it's having the ability to SWITCH OFF the passenger side airflow.!

Thanks, did not know! Will Google how to

Duct tape?

Not an elegant solution but given the climate control can be set to auto, I wonder if setting the passenger temperature to the current cabin temperature would deactivate the fans?

A small digital thermometer placed near the cars cabin temperature sensor (under the cars display) then the passenger temperature could be adjusted to match the readout on the digital thermometer?

Granted, not ideal as you'd have to change the passenger temp during the journey but if it's that uncomfortable for her it may be worth a shot.

EDIT: Or use duct tape (presumably on the vents) as @OttoR suggests

7. Carwash mode
8. Winter mode

(un)folding mirrors, preheat at certain temp, ensure wipers stay put, etc...etc...

360° birds eye view would be a massive difference, my company Peugeot 308sw can do it using only a single reversing camera and some trick software so Tesla could certainly make a better job of it with all the views available.

Enhanced Autopilot / FSD on SaaS would be amazing. I’d definitely pay a sensible monthly fee for either.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned snake jazz. The culmination of pedestrian warning systems!

All the bing bongs seem loud even in Joe mode ... I would be happy with much quieter bing bongs

That reminds me of this!

I'd love an option for motorway lane changing on standard AP eg. Indicate - AP goes to hold mode, indicator off + in between lines for the new lane AP reactivates. It's the only thing that really bugs me is the frequent bing bong followed by bong bing (yes I know Joe mode reduces the volume of the bongs) on every manual lane change, but it's not so frustrating for me to pay for FSD!

Went out for a drive in my partner's new Peugeot e208 at the weekend - on the motorway I put on lane assist and cruise and the car took over. When we came up behind a car, indicated, pulled out and then the lane assist reapplied in the centre lane automatically with no noise or fuss. Once we were past the cars, indicated, pulled back in, and it took over again in silence without intervention from me.

I'm now jealous of a Peugeot...

Just curious. Whats your range of 'sensible monthly fee'?

When subscription was first muted, iirc FSD was around $6k at that time, the $100/month was discussed. I think that discussion moved on to twice that now. $25 was also suggested as iirc Cruise were pitching at that level, but I don't think that was L3 or higher.

Tesla's 'full self-driving' feature is coming in subscription form

Super Cruise and Ultra Cruise monthly payments

I've found a compromise that works keeping the car ventilated as long as there are no back seat passengers & its not raining!

1. Birdseye view
2. Option to select where car sits in the lane, I’d like it more central, it’s too far to the left
3. End phantom braking, it is so bad I dare not use TACC let alone FSD

I agree. There's a design on Thingiverse for 3D printing a vent shield. If I could find a non-ugly filament I might give it a go.

 

[Morriscoombes]

The "wood" PLA variants might work.

Feature I want is a "Heater OFF" button. Oh sorry, this thread is for features we don't know we want. How Rumsfeldian.

 

[MrBadger]

And/or a comfortable temperature range setting, ie 18-21, where heat or cooling (still monitoring humidity though) does not kick in.

 

[98dizzard]

Vent Only could be an option, only the fan comes on to provide fresh air with no heat/cooling. Personally wouldn't use it, I prefer setting a comfy temperature and letting the car do the rest.

Apologies if you already know this, if you long press the fan symbol on the main screen it switches off the heater.

Hopefully a new icon on the main front screen to simply switch between strength of regen braking . I prefer min regen on motorway driving and max regen in city driving. The former activates the brake light everytime i ease off the accelerator and drives the car behind me crazy. You currently need to 3 icon presses to do that on the M3. You can alter the strength on the flappy paddle on the Kona and is really useful.
