I miss Creep

[rogbmw]

Having spent the last 11 1/2 years with our Model S, I really miss the "Creep" setting. I found it much smoother starting or backing than the new constant hold setting the car goes to. Oh well...nothing changes but the changes!

I too miss this coming from an ice car. I just got my model y. This function is definitely missed when parking head in and when you just need to creep up a couple more inches. I hope they bring this feature back in future updates

Just one more thing to add to the list of features that came with the car that Tesla decided to take away for its customers, after the fact. I really wonder if this “taking” is even legal?

Creep mode is gone? I vastly prefer HOLD, but wasn't aware that creep wasn't an option anymore. Hmm.

 

[ATPMSD]

I just checked my 2023 MYLR and I still have Creep mode!

@ATPMSD - got a screenshot? @rogbmw @dddunit - you sure it's not in the settings?

It's unfortunate from an "absolute" standpoint, but I've never cared for it.

The HR-V that I traded in had brake-hold function, and my other car, 2010 Honda Fit is a manual transmission... so no creep in either.

For all the cars I've ever driven before that.. I'm either stopped or I'm going, no creeping.

So, no loss for me if they take it away.

I agree, I prefer the Hold setting.

ATPMSD - Is yours a 2024? Our new MYLR is a 3/2024 build, and does not have that option. I thought I read that all 2024's did not have the Creep option.

 

[gtae07]

It was eliminated in 2024 models, apparently due to new EPA testing requirements.

Tesla didn't remove creep from vehicles that already had creep. My 2019 Model 3 can creep and has the reduced regen setting too!

100% legal. Companies can legally change the products they, even removing features.

Mine is a 2023 MYLR

After you took possession of the car? So you can buy a car with 300 HP and the company can make a software update reducing the power to 200 HP, and that would be legal? Extreme example, but you get the point.

You can't do one pedal driving with creep on.
I love one pedal driving.
(I had creep on my old 2015 SD but I much prefer HOLD one pedal driving)

(I have no idea hypothetically if that is legal or not, but the point is that didn't actually happen)

I hope this is true. Recall, however, they did remove the Regen “low” option from cars they had already sold. And with the latest FSD updated, they removed the option to use TACC alone. If I had purchased FSD I would be very pissed.

 

[gsmith123]

My car still has low regen…?

You sure about this? I thought it was the same thing... they just stopped putting it on new cars. I never had that option, and wouldn't want it.

Very sure, it was on my 2020 MSLR and then Tesla removed it. When they removed it there were a lot of unhappy people as many liked the idea of a low setting as a way to get used to one-foot driving, then they would often move to the normal mode. Others liked to have the option for driving in the snow.
