It doesn't help that you did the dance during the rainy season.

So far, I like the calendar and naming of my MS. I named her Tessie (I know, not original). Not sure how to use the traffic navigation but I did turn it on in the settings. I will also see how the Smart Suspension works since I am also putting it on Very High to get up my driveway. Very interesting that I see the flag on the side of the Very High telling me that it is being automatically set.

Looks like we are the last ones to get 6 - installing now

STILL haven't got my update :crying:

Probably need to go do another cycle of those steps that I explained again - four times.

I'm not sure how this smart suspension is supposed to work. I press "high" setting when I get into the garage, and then back to low when I exit. Repeated the process several days in a row, still doesn't remember to raise itself when I get close to the garage. So I thought maybe instead of manually pressing the low when I leave, I have to hit that box with the "x" on it to show where the high mode is supposed to end, but it stays on high and doesn't remember when I come back the next time. I'm so confused

That's ... not right (frowning)

I think you should try setting it for high just before you enter. Then a block or so after you exit from the garage, change it to low. I belive there's not enough distance between your setting changes the way you described it.

Oooh, there's a complicated answer to this one related to latitude/longitude coordinates, GPS, and the distance travelled at what speed. It really depends on Tesla's algorithm for calculating your car's position but even if it goes to 3 decimal places on the minutes that would give accuracy down to ~6ft. The car will cover 6' in no time even at slow speed and likely faster than the suspension has time to adjust itself. IOW, Akikiki is right when he says your points are too close together (but I'll add alternatively that you're driving too fast); you have to give the car enough time (read:distance) to adjust it's height.

Thanks guys. I will try this tomorrow!

I have noticed a pop-up on display appears when it "saves" the auto height location on the first time I do it. When I leave the location, I don't reset it back to standard manually, just let the car do it when you get up to speed. Perhaps that will help.

It should. It works great. Now, when I get home, my MS automatically lifts to super high to get up my driveway.

Still haven't got my update...been reading on other threads that some things in 5.14 are not compatible with 6.0 so will probably have to wait for 6.1

Yep, make sense. You probably need to buy a new S.

That's what I was thinking!!

I think that's a good idea. Dark Blue again?

You do know its going to arrive with Lane Departure Warning and Speed Assist? Others already are arriving with these features (at no additional cost).

I actually like the new gray too:biggrin:. Stop tempting me. Am waiting for auto parking feature.

I agree with you. The gray is a great color. But really, you did know the new ones are coming with those two new features (and free)?

Really? Where did you find that info?

Its been noted at least a few times in the main Model S section. Apparently in some cases even the Delivery Specialists didn't know about it (latest post from a few hours ago here).
