Model 3 Software Update 2018.42.x

[FSKT]

Again, it fixes standard regen for RWD only. (For some values of ‘fixes’.)

AWD was ‘okay’ already. Yeah, we wish we had more choices. Not yet.

Ah, as a RWD owner, that explains why I do feel a distinct increase in regen.

This might be perception rather than reality, but it also feels like one has to exert a bit more pressure on the accelerator as well. And as a plus the car also feels quicker on initial acceleration . . . .

Like I said, maybe it's just perception and not reality, but that's what it seems to me.

Man.... they can't roll this out fast enough! LOL!

Silly/serious question: why does anyone need a key fob? Is the credit card key not good enough? Not having a key fob is a big upside to M3, in my opinion.

Agree!

 

[DNAPoPo]

Agree!

I think its easier for my valet guys with a keyfob

Wow, you raise huge chickens in Arizona.

As opposed to those tiny people you can barely see? Especially at night! And like ghosts that appear and disappear.
I vote bigger people and bigger bicycles too. We can hit cars and truck just fine.

And where's that lane change warning beep? (Waiting for 2018.42... maybe?)

Won't need valet soon anyway, parks itself soon.

I'm with no keyfob guy (since getting a Note 8 - unlocking and summon still 100% after 1 week).

I don't usually valet, but when I do, it's because there's nowhere you are allowed to park yourself. The same restriction would apply to the car parking itself. Valet parking isn't about convenience, it's about extracting more money from your patrons.

I have to valet everyday, it's my parking assignment at work, lol

Car has to be at least 2 years old before a valet is allowed.

JUST installed 42.2

@26 seconds is where it starts veering to the right. It is supposed to get off on the next exit, but I think it was prompting me to get over one more lane (memory is fuzzy here) It only takes me a second to retake control.

it looks like it was following the buss to it may have been ok, but it was unexpected behavior.

Got an update notification on my phone about 20 minutes ago and kicked it off immediately. So nice to be able to start these updates from my phone now.

Edit: Took about 24 minutes to install. Interestingly the update was only around 200MB according to Google WiFi. Previous updates have been around 500MB.

Edit 2: Scratch that, the update was quite substantial in size. Just took my Google WiFi to update. Looks to be near 800MB.

1 minute before I received the Tesla email I got a message on my phone that I had a new update.
Great I thought except the update only upgraded from 39.7 to 40.1 which doesn't have the drive on navigate feature.

Good news, brought my 3 in for service today. 2 cameras replaced so EAP, auto headlights and auto wipers should work all the time now. Plus service upgraded it to 42.2. And they gave me a Model X loaner P90D so got to experience ludicrous for the first time

Also got mine for the 3 a few min ago.
S last night. Attached for size. 559 for S. 822 for 3.

Looks exactly like how I'm used to it performing with V8.

Where it sometimes gets confused by an exit.

In this case it's likely the Bus that blocked it's view, and then it followed the bus. Should be interesting to see what it does next time you're at that spot.

If it takes the exit or not.

yea I think it's just an autopilot issue, but then again, it's getting off at the wrong exit without me signaling and it's on drive on Nav so that's not good right? Looks like they have a ways to go.

I'll see what happens tomorrow

Does the car need to be hooked up to WiFi for software updates?

Interesting and scary. Car behind you might misinterpret that you were going to take the exit. Hopefully this can be ironed out on future update ASAP.

You will probably get them allot faster if you are. I think they probably don't want to push out that much data over LTE, but I received my first update that way.

I've received updates both over LTE and WIFI and the updates have been about 50/50.
