Just had my FSD upgrade done on my HW2.5 Model 3 — mobile service — they texted me it could be scheduled (tech said they had 15 today to do). Took it out tonight on the highway before sunset to re-calibrate. Followed their texted instructions to turn off Sentry and not have any devices using the USB during this. Saw the gray wheel, did not notice it turned when the car was turning but my husband was driving so it was closer to him.
The blue progress circle was barely moving and I wondered if we’d have to drive the full 20 miles to reach calibration. My husband smartly decided to move into the middle of the three highway lanes and it really sped up the calibration progress. He figured it gave the cameras on all sides more to take in for calibration. Quickly got the alert that calibration was completed.
My preferences seemed to all transfer but did get a message when we got home that a software update was available but didn’t have wifi connection, so that did have to be re-established at our home.
Driving home from our dinner/calibration run I noticed how much improved the graphics/animation was of my car on the screen. The headlights were really bright and the taillight too seemed a brighter red. Saw a lot more vehicles rendered. I was waiting to see the signage appear but got home without that. Saw above in this thread there’s something I’m suppose to set? Will have to explore screens tomorrow when out.
Feels like a new car again in some ways! Just had it’s 2nd birthday yesterday. Still love getting in to drive it.
