From what I have read on here, radar is disabled now on all the M3's. If this is incorrect, please let us know.What are the benefits of getting HW3 over HW2.5 if you don't have FSD? I thought HW2.5 retains radar which is more desirable.
Pretty sure that's incorrect. I have a HW2.5 car, and have not gotten vision, and I'm pretty up to date. I believe this is because the whole point of HW3 is the ability to do more vision processing. If they could do full vision on HW2.5, it would also be able to run FSD also.From what I have read on here, radar is disabled now on all the M3's. If this is incorrect, please let us know.

Awesome to hear Bob - the entire intention of my post was to spread the word and hope some fellow owners could replicate my “luck”.I want to thank the OP! Came on the forum looking for something else and happened to catch this thread in it's infancy.
I put in the service request to see what I would get for a quote. It went under "Other" for HW3 upgrade. They needed to contact me back after apps diagnostics could not find anything. Few days later I got a phone call that an appointment was made. Few days after I got the estimate and it was for $0. I watched this thread religiously as I was worried about a bait and switch and upon completion they would ask for the $1000.
Well after 9.5 hours at the Peabody, MA service station, my 2018 Model 3 with EAP was upgraded to HW3 at no cost. Thank you OP!
2018. Had it delivered to my house four years ago this month.That’s awesome. What year is your car, Bob?
Thanks for the update, I knew there had been several others that were going to try this.I want to thank the OP! Came on the forum looking for something else and happened to catch this thread in it's infancy.

Thanks, I had forgotten.traffic chime is free now
Thanks, I had forgotten.
But to be pedantic: It isn't free because Tesla wants $1K from me to upgrade HW
Also, I don't think it is "free" if you have a HW2 car- all of those cars either had EAP or nothing, right? It's only included if you have some sort of AP, and some cars don't have AP at all.
Will HW3 load the camera faster from cold start?
HW2.x cars that originally had nothing also had the opportunity to buy "basic" AP during the time EAP first stopped being sold- but yes in theory there's still some small # of cars with HW2.x that have no ADAS stuff because they refused to pay for any the entire time.
I was in that small # of cars with HW2.x but finally upgraded to AP during the $2K deal.
My understanding is this "deal" really won't do much for AP other than better rendering?
If they are going to require HW4 to run FSD, they literally have 2 million cars they will need to upgrade.I wouldwait until AI Day by the end of this month before paying for HW3 upgrade
