Wiki FSD’s Earliest Adopters Still Waiting

[swt2c]

A couple years ago, at my office, the mobile service guy texted me that he was starting the job. I walked out of the building and he already had the trunk open and was working on replacing the taillight. No key needed. They can definitely get into the car, but hopefully only while the car is in “service mode”.

Oh interesting. Maybe my guy was just too lazy to do whatever is required to open it remotely?

Who wants to bet my appointment will get postponed?
It's for Tuesday AM and as of now it's still in the preparation phase... still have to receive and approve the estimate...

Not necessarily. I have had appointments without needing to approve estimates.
Good luck!

Do you know if someone has to be phisilcally present for a mobile appointment?
Or can they do it anyway if I'm not home?

@valem
In my experience as long as they have access to vehicle and Fob, I didn't need to be present.

According to ELECTREK, Tesla has started to Push FSD BETA 10.6 (2021.36.8.9) to those with SS 98+.

Anyone want to guess what that means for those of us with new Camera Upgrades?

I read Teslarati and Electrek occasionally but wouldn’t rely on their articles for “hard” news. TeslaFi members data shows every single recipient of 2021.36.8.9 was previously on 2021.36.8.8 so that data doesn’t suggest any new FSD Beta participants. Also TeslaFi member data shows a relatively small percentage of their 2021.36.8.8 cars have been upgraded to 2021.36.8.9 so far, which also suggests the FSD Beta group is not being expanded. Why would Tesla expand the group when it is taking a slow approach to rolling out the update to the existing Beta group?

@azred
Thanks for your incite on this.

Do you think Tesla would push a previous version (36.8.8) to new Beta Testers?

If it's anything like the last rollout for new people, once they release a new OS version they no longer distribute the old version to people who are newly eligible to receive it. You just have to maintain your score and wait for the rollout to get to you with the newest version.

I think Fiver’s take in the post above is probably accurate but I am just guessing.

Back to your post citing Electrek. I just looked at the article and all I could find was a statement that 36.8.9 was rolling out to SS score 98 and above. Supposedly that has been the case since 36.8.8, but I haven’t seen data supporting that statement. Maybe the Beta did expand in 36.8.8 including some 98’s but so far 36.8.9 hasn’t even been rolled out to most of the existing group — including my Model 3. Not a good omen for our “old” S’s and X’s being included any time soon methinks.

Sadly it feels like an eternity to us... The luster of FSD Beta has worn off since we couldn't get it. I've largely stopped watching the videos. I'm just not interested any more...

 

[Cheburashka]

Yeah this sucks bigtime. Another release with us left out once again.

Most people didn't even get the camera upgrade notification.

Yeah, we're still sitting at 100 (rounded due to some 99 days mixed in with the mostly 100 days) & we still can't get an invite to get new cameras...

I got the first FSD I think about 5-6 weeks ago, still haven't received the 10.6 update

Looks like maybe 24% so far are getting 10.6 ... TeslaFI data

FSD 10.5 | 2021.36.8.8 - TeslaFI count 1,522
FSD 10.6 | 2021.36.8.9 - TeslaFI count 367

 

[azred]

Not surprising to see Musk just tweeted that 10.6.1 is coming to fix bugs in 10.6. The very slow rollout of 10.6 seems to have dried up.

What happened to going down 1% per week? Seems like they pretty much stopped at 98 and even that isn’t consistent.

I wonder if this could have been affecting FSD testing

Tesla is replacing faulty Autopilot cameras in some cars, internal documents say

Tesla found faulty printed circuit boards are causing problems with cameras that enable its Autopilot systems.

All the times I've had mobile service, the guy has asked for my key. So they may not be able to access your car without the key unlike the service centers (geofenced?)?

That's weird, I've never been asked for my key during mobile service
