Firmware 5.0

[Brett]

I took delivery last week, and have Version 5. I was greeted with this update this morning!

Please us know which version you have after the update, and any changes you notice. Thanks!

Damn update anxiety has returned! :cursing:

 

[Phacoman]

I just got my S85 last weekend and it came with software version 5 however, this morning I too was greeted with a message about an update. Does anybody know what this may be? I set it to update at 3am tomorrow.

I got my S60 last week and it only came with 4.5

Here's to hoping that the update Brett and Phacoman received is a prelude to a wider roll out.

@Phacoman and @Brett - which versions do you have right now? 1.35.102 or the older 1.35.96. If it's the latter than likely this is just the OTA update to 1.35.102. If you already have 102 then this is much more interesting

My car went in for service last week & I had asked for the v5 because we are lucky to get 1 bar of AT&T at home, SC installed 5.0 (1.35.102) & I was told all cars that came in were getting the update (this was on Sept 4)

I am now at 1.35.102. I can post photos of the release notes, or are they already posted?

I have 1.35.98
Any clue what changes may happen with this update?

Interesting. Last time I checked with Bellevue SC they said 5.0 is "still on hold" for "by request" updating. Maybe that's been lifted since then....

Yeah, had my car in for tire rotation today, and some simple trim molding fix. They did a general inspection too. They had the car for awhile, but no software upgrade upon completion (not that I asked for it either).

Has anyone with 5.0 noticed that the regen has been remapped? It starts more gradually (equivalent accelerator lift produces less regen braking). The max is still 60 kW. However, my wife is complaining that she now has to use the friction brake down steep hills she drives regularly. I don't really like the change; I was totally accustomed to the regen profile. I have 1.35.102.

Can't answer your question as I'm still on 4.5. But I assume you checked - did the regen on her profile happened to get reset to "Low" during the upgrade? There's a huge diff, so it would be very noticeable and thus assumed you checked already.

Yes, i checked this; still on normal regen setting for all profiles.

Definitely no change in my regen for 5.0.

I haven't given it a lot of thought. Now that I think about it, it seems "easier" to hold the car at 0/0 power use/regen to me lately, but I can't tell whether that's due to a change or me getting better at driving the Model S. That said, there is no change in the maximum regen from completely lifting, if you pull your foot off the pedal you still get that "downshift-to-second" reaction.
