M3 Autopilot Not Configuring

[Jonnywallace]

Hi there, I took delivery of my Model 3 two weeks ago, have put 253k's onto it and the Autopilot has still not configured - the steering wheel icon just looks to be stuck on the final 5-ish percent. I have not been driving on freeways, could that be it? I've see a few people post saying it has taken a while for them, but this seems too long?

Yes, it's too long for 253k so it's time for a Service Center visit.

Try a reset on the configuration and start over. I always start with the cheap and simple first. It should be in your menus.

Calibration happens more quickly on straight roads with well marked lanes, so driving on the freeway would help.

Thanks Tam, have booked a service.

If the OP hasn't been on a multi-lane road, then it's not time for service center. You MUST drive it on clear well marked multi-lane roads in order to calibrate autopilot. In my case, my car was calibrated in under 10 miles before I even got onto a freeway because I was on a 4 lane highway before I hit the freeway.
