Stop, you're making me hopeful! Not sure how I feel about that

im just looking forward to a useable track bar. on a RHD car you trigger the AC evertime you pull it on a song...
But on Model s and x we have two screen one for speed indication or mendatory indicators that's snot possible on one screen model 3

I really wish they would bring back the +/- buttons on either side of the fan speed slider. Don’t care for the slider, whether it’s the tap or slide.
What would really be good is to have +/- fan speed as well as +/- temp on the bottom bar. There’s enough room. I personally change the fan speed much more often than the temp.

NotaTeslaApp says this will now be an option. I thought I wanted this too, but isn't fan speed the main thing that allowed auto to be... auto? I don't see how increasing would be an issue, but if you decrease the fan speed enough it may not be able to reach the target temp, which I believe is the biggest function of auto.
I used to use only manual, but I mostly use auto now. It's come a long way in recent updates and I love how it constantly adjusts vent selection, A/C, recirculate, fan speed, all based on interior vs. exterior conditions. I assume it does this partly to maintain optimal health of the whole system (e.g. preventing moisture buildup), so I let it do its thing.

We don't know yet, but for the last few years the Holiday update has dropped around Christmas +/- a few days. So probably not for ~2 weeks or so.
A sophisticated system like the Tesla HVAC is able to vary much more than just the fan speed to achieve the temperature set point. What it actually does, I have no idea, but certainly it can change the temperature of the air coming out of the vents by blending hot and cold air. It actually has two separate coils in the air handler for this and they can and do work simultaneously.
It can also regulate the compressor duty cycle to lower the evaporator (cooling) coil temperature I suppose if it wanted to. In addition to controlling the supply air temperature it can source the air from either inside or outside which impacts the loading. So if the fan speed was restricted to be lower than it would typically be, the system could still achieve the requested temperature by making the supply air colder. Likewise, if the fan speed was manually set higher than where auto would have it the system could make the supply air a little less cold, so even though there would be a greater volume of air flowing out the vents it would be less chilled.
This is the mode I want to try. I have been rather unhappy with my MYLR climate control, and I think that if I could increase the fan speed to get more air flowing while still allowing the system to automatically adjust the supply temp, humidity, source, and vent selections it might feel better. It's a hope anyway.
Aside from the cards making a comeback, potential from the mini media player app, and navigation gui updates, and the auto-climate fan setting override - this mythical 2022.44.25 is shaping up to be another huge letdown.
Another push of features and GUI changes along the lines of single-stack vision-only hardware config.
Maybe there is a glimpse of 2023 refresh hardware buried in there somewhere.
Hopefully they don't label this as v12 - v11.1 will be more fitting. Ugh.
Can't wait for the 2GB+ download to get stuck at 50% for a good few hours for the CRC integrity checks on Dec-31st when the car finally pulls this update after 90% of cars pull it across the globe.
Latest Im seeing across the interwebz is a wider push of this update on Dec-22nd.

A holiday update that actually makes things better? That sounds amazing and exactly what I want, and far better then the crap we have gotten for the last two years in the 3/Y. Not that I am necessarily expecting it to be good though given recent past performance. But I am excited to see it. At this point I am far more excited by the prospect of a better UI then some added cruft that has nothing to do with the car being a car (light show, farting, games, etc). Fun things are fine but not something I really care about, especially at the expense of a good CAR experience.
geez mega debbie downer much?
More of a realist biased by a generous helping of Tesla conditioning, which without fail, has been ruining the UX/UI experience and adding useless infotainment bloat for the past 5 years. v8 -> v9 -> v10 -> v11 -> next experiment.
Come on people. I am sure that every here has used the light show capability that was in last years double fire update at least 3-4 times a day on their daily drive.

After the big punch in the balls that was V11, I'll be holding off on this until it's been thoroughly run through the guinea pig mill before I dare to install it. Still running 2022.12.3.2 and not looking to trade that for the next piece of untested garbage to slide down the chute unless there's a pretty much unanimous thumbs up...
Also, the cards aren't really back unless they include an efficiency\economy card...

I've not done a light show even once. I dont have the slightest interest in it, and I don't want to break anything.

Not really.... The 3 prototype had largely the same screen as the plaid s. You really just need a small speednumber. Rest doesnt matter.
Probably just getting a blue dot this year.

Agreed, nothing in this update is compelling enough to "upgrade" from 2022.20.8 and giving up radar going into the winter season.
