Firmware 8.0

[msnow]

Gotcha - thanks. Why so late for my Q4 2016 vs this one? Just earlier this year?

I actually think Tesla has them in December but since they are such huge downloads it takes them a couple of months to distribute. Just a hunch though.

The March one you got was the Q4 2015 and the one you just got is the Q4 2016. That's once per year like most of us. Each of those took a year to develop so as @MP3Mike says the newest are already a year old.

@msnow Actually you are off by a year, for both of those, the most current maps update is Q4 2015. (At least per @Ingineer's post.) So if Garmin/Navigon fixes something in the maps today you likely won't see it for about 2 years in a Tesla.

Yep, you are correct. I asked him for the version ID's further down that same thread and he came back with:
NA-Q415-12795998 (North America).

Well Tesla has not told us why they made changes, so no I can't quote a law or regulation they have changed because. I can point you to https://www.transportation.gov/sites/dot.gov/files/docs/AV policy guidance PDF.pdf as well as other discussions in these forums about the fact the AP1 cars are now apparently slowing to 50mph when they detect a stopped vehicle in an adjacent lane (which happens to comply with state laws about passing a stopped vehicle...someone in one of the threads quoted the appropriate laws in several states).

As you say, until Tesla tells us why they made a change, we are speculating. I have certainly tried to make clear when I was speculating and when I was providing facts.

This, unfortunately, also affects EU cars - have been trying for a while now to rid my wife of AP fear, and had two incidents where TACC slowed down from 110 km/h (65mph?) to 80 kmh (about 50 mph) when passing cars parked on the road shoulder. Needless to say, whe wasn't any more convinced after these two "hiccups"

I've noticed that since receiving 2.50.114 I have slacker stations that now longer show a station/album cover. I have tried rebooting without any luck too. I don't ever remember having this problem before.

Interesting. We have a similar problem in Europe - DAB radio no longer shows programme information; I wonder if this has the same basis as your problem.

Yes, but in my case, I initially had the graphics after .114 installation, but a few days later after my CID locked-up and I rebooted, they disappeared (I've rebooted many times before with .40 and the graphics remained.) Definitely something going on with how .114 reboots clear cache differently than .40 did. See my post #4669 above for links to more detail on my circumstances.

So who's the lucky duck who got 2.52.20? (Ev-fw alert)

Looks like a lot of people are getting that FW today.

 

[_jal_]

The only vehicles posted on ev-fw with 2.52.50 have AP1 or no AP.

And a little bit more ... no one who got 2.50.185 has gotten 2.52.50

And I've got AP1 yet only running 2.50.114 so far - impatiently waiting for the fixes that this version left me with...

 

[JPP]

Just got 2.52.20 today on my 2013 S85 (...nothing yet on my wife's 2015 S70D with APv1). FWIW I now have the fob-driver profile update which works for me.

 

[Wknapp0924]

AP1 70 here and just installed update. Only tested the profiles and they work decently.

Haven't tried the AP restriction though.

Yup. Seeing mostly older vehicles with 20k+ miles. No issue with waiting...more concerned with the salt / brine on the roads...

But there is a new 2.52.36 update that just hit in Europe on a new P100D.

 

[LastGas]

What I see in the tracker is that 2.52.36 went to 3 cars, 2 Model S and 1 Model X both in the US.

One AP 1.0 car got 2.25.20

Anyone get release notes with 2.52.20 or 2.52.36?

The firmware tracker download link is broken

 

[luckyj]

I got 2.52.36 on my P100D with HW2 early this morning. The release notes displayed were the same as 2.50.185.

Have you driven the car yet, notice any changes with AP?

 

[luckyj]

Nothing is different, so far, from 185. Still no AP, no changes in the menus, no changes in the instrument cluster. Just says it's 2.52.36 now.

 

[luckyj]

Okay, so this Tesla Ludicrous+ Easter Egg makes its way to P100D vehicles, 0-60 in 2.4 seconds works!

 

[Evee]

I want that + interface on my car! Im hoping tesla can make that happen.
