How to turn off the dynamic parking track for parking?

[BearBu]

Hello there! This is Tommy from Hong Kong, my first post ever!

I am not happy with the dynamic parking track while parking. So is there any way to deactivate of switch the dynamic track?

Hi Tommy, welcome to the forum!
I don’t think it’s possible to turn it off. It was a feature people waiting for for a long time, and was released in new software a while ago.

We’ve seen a couple of these threads here and on Reddit and I can’t figure out what’s up. Why would someone not want to know where the car is going to go based on where the wheel is turned to now?

I haven't noticed this feature, then again I'm old school and rely on my mirrors more than the camera

Yes I love the feature and it seems accurate to me.
Maybe if the camera is not well aligned the lines are not accurate?

I’ve seen one post where the SC can adjust this but not sure how. If it’s out of alignment you might ask. Besides that, can’t see the downside!

Parked backing in at Costco first time perfectly last weekend, where I’d never do it to my old BMW 328 (without backup cam). Piece of cake!

It can't be turned off.

What is it about the "parking track" lines that you don't like? I find them extremely useful. I was a Model S owner for over an year before those lines were added, and I really wanted them.

It’s all about the preference, I am more comfortable to do the parking without the dynamic track.

It’s more flexible if it can be switched off

Okay, I'm just trying to understand why you are "more comfortable" with the "track" off, and how you know you would be more comfortable with it off since you have never had it off in your Tesla (or any other S/X).

And how do the lines bother you? That’s what I don’t understand. If you want to back up your own way, sure, do. Most cars today have a ton more backup guidance. They show where the back of the car is, where it will be, etc. I don’t know if those can be turned off or not.

Maybe I am kinda old school , I am more comfortable with the back up image without any added on OSD

Btw , all the added on OSD can be turned off on My BMW i3, that’s the flexibility issue

I find the lines tell me where my BACK wheels will end up but have trouble lining up the whole car. I usually end up pulling forward and then straight back to solve that issue.
And why? Seriously! Why do people park nose in? That makes it a real chore to back out (with poor visibility) into constantly moving parking lot traffic!
