Firmware 6.1

[MikeBur]

I don't want to freak you out, but you should probably call the service center. When I had the update fail on my P85 it started causing all kinds of annoyance problems. Happened to me at 5.11 to 6.0. I had the 6.0 features, but things were a little wacky after a few days. Touchscreen not responding and hanging, even the speedo would freeze for a few seconds then pop back in place. The service center reset something remotely and it worked again...

Better have them check it out, at least remotely.

Finally got this addressed today - thanks for the warning on failed updates. Needed to have Parking Sensor ECU replaced. +1 Tesla service, and +1 rep points to wk057

Here is a picture. This one is interesting because it takes into account the elevation going from Boulder to Silverthorne, CO and back. It's 43% there and 24% back.

A picture is worth a 1000 words!

Yet not enough... :tongue::tongue:

The picture alone doesn't mean much without the current battery SoC :biggrin:

Thank you Tesla

These software updates are like getting a new car every time they arrive. I know this has been said by many others in various ways, but Bravo! You'd have to pry this car out of my cold, dead, hands...

The only teeny tiny little features I'd like to see at this point:
1) option to have the steering wheel auto collapse inward towards the dash when put in park for easier getting in/out without having to create a separate "exit profile"
2) valet option

again, BRAVO! Can't wait to try out the new Nav features!

How about a little grade school math... Because the picture says 45% at destination, 21% at the return, and I stated 43% used outbound and 24% back, it is pretty easy to calculate that I had 88% battery SoC when I took the picture... :tongue: :biggrin:

maybe this is just my perception, but does it seem like v6.1 is rolling out faster than previous updates in the past to you guys? Perhaps they have opened up the flood gates a little wider on this one? I got mine pretty quick and have had to wait much longer in the past... I know it's random, but there's a lotta folks posting they got it on the boards too.. and I'm not sure if that's just because we have more owners now, or because they've increased the "batch size" or something?

 

[wayner]

Sure, rub it in to those of us still waiting for the upgrade to make it to our cars :biggrin:

At least I have a heated steering wheel!

You just lucked out, I think. Most of the recipients are P85D folks. The overwhelming majority of the non-D folks are still waiting. I also haven't seen anyone post that they got an update since Friday or Saturday, so no...this doesn't seem any faster.

A friend of mine with a VIN in the 2,000 range (clearly non-D) still hasn't received it. I, on the other hand, have.

i have a D and no update yet

I took delivery of my D last week....nothing yet here either...

I certainly do not want to rub salt in the wounds of those waiting for 6.1, but the TACC updates have made the driving experience 10X better in Miami's bumper-to-bumper snowbird traffic.

The backup lines have made parking much easier.

Wonderful upgrade.

 

[Rifleman]

No update on my 60 yet

 

[kabirakhtar]

No update on my 60 yet

me neither. just took delivery two weeks ago today, if that data point helps at all.

 

[NoMoGas]

Nothing on ANY of my cars yet.

Reminder for those new to this process: It usually takes WEEKS or MONTHS for releases to get out to all cars. The sequence is more or less random, though recent information indicates that some configs may get earlier. Sometimes (if significant issues detected) pushes are halted, and a new corrective version is pushed when they resume. It is rumored that WiFi connectivity accelerates updates, but personally I'll say ALL of mine have popped up under 3g (that's 2+ years worth). Do not panic if you are not getting within hours, days, or even weeks of others. If it is months (like Mario in Estonia, or the guy in Portugal), make some noise!

I don't have the TACC (having a 11,xxx VIN) but the backup lines are quite nice. I was able to easily park between two cars today without using the side mirrors... which is a big change for me since I always feel spatially challenged in cars without good rear visibility

Okay I'll take it then... luck it is. :-D

 

[mknox]

For whatever reason, I usually seem to get updates early. Not this time. No sign of 6.1 for me as yet.

 

[MikeC]

FWIW, I got it today on VIN 4375.

 

[TechGuy]

I was beginning to think I was the only one who hadn't received it yet. Back to waiting patiently. ;-)

Got it OTA at the end of a long trip last night. Installed overnight-- no issues. Even on a "classic" Signature, this is a great upgrade! I really look forward to using the energy prediction stuff on the way back from Clarkston, WA. That 201 mile leg is net uphill, and can be quite tricky in the winter.
