Model 3 Software Update 2019.5.x

[aronth5]

Your range at 80% charged was 240 miles? Have you been charging to 70% or less recently?

No always to 80% unless I do a trip charge which I have only done a few times. Never supercharged. Built in March 2018 with 10k miles. RWD LR Model 3

not sure why this is funny...you're going to have a ton of people who have spent the entire time they've had their car (me included) running down their battery because something they expected to turn off like it always has suddenly remains powered on, without any notification from tesla that they were changing that behavior.

What are people plugging into thier 12V that’s going to run it down. It gets topped off from the high voltage battery. Your typical 12V accessory won’t even make a dent in the battery pack.

Well, I sure as heck am not going to leave my 12v heated coffee mug plugged in when I'm not in the car - but then again the 12v plug gets much hotter than in my other ICE car, so I don't leave it plugged in anyway.

Unrelated, I too experienced the glitchy cam video - but only from the driver side, and only while parked. Very odd. Reformatted, and it was less so - but still happened on a couple clips.

Got my 5.15 update. Same thing here. Erratic braking and lane changes with autopilot. Also no update notes for Sentry Mode. Does have it and works fine. Not sure if it will show up in the notes at some point.

Been too busy to try to talk to Tesla (and not sure who to talk to) about the corrupted, mostly left repeater, camera footage on my USB flashdrive. Might be time for a service visit to fix if its the camera.

Anyone else have rear audio stop working with this update?

I think this is a common issue for everyone and probably relates back to the fact that the system was not designed for this purpose so it's not going to perform 100%.

My left repeater camera has the same issues and it's dependent on what's being recorded.

Sorry guys, not gonna dig through 45 pages, so forgive me if asked already:

Just updated tonight, and Sentry mode doesn’t seem to do anything when I walk around, touch, or shake the car.

This the case for anyone else?

 

[MMBTUS]

It's been available since 5.4 (or earlier):

Thank you. I found the control. I’ve been on a 2018 build til now.

Does it work?

Ok lazy when you walk around it will be recording you from what I've established using it 5.4. When we leaned hard against the car or kind of pounded on the windows (simulating a break in without breaking in the glass), Alert mode gets triggered, the headlights flashed to let the person know the car was aware of their presence and the center screen lights up with the flashing Big Red Eye. Havnn't tested it out beyond that.

Pause TeslaCam and pull your USB out and check out the files on your computer. Sentry Mode files will be a folder called SavedClips. The folder RecentClips will be from TeslaCam's 1 hour buffer.

Got my update last night. Anyone else notice the forward collision warning is less sensitive? I always had false warning, especially when a car in front of me was turning out of the lane, but on my way to work today I got extremely close to the person in front of me to the point of having to brake to avoid a collision and didn't have any warning.

Thanks!

But from my understanding, even if all you’re doing is walking around, the car should be flashing it’s lights and displaying a warning on the screen. Mine does nothing.

Sound system lost it's "punch" after latest update

Sentry Mode is turned on and your car is locked with all the doors closed? Even without plugging in a memory stick, I think the light will flash and you should see the warning on the screen when you are in the front (within a foot or 2 of the front bumper) of the car, or at the sides close to the windows.

It’s not intended to do that by just motion around your car. Start recording video yes, but not go to alert yet. Otherwise everytime someone goes in the parking lot or gets picked up by motion in the camera by it would be flashing and going into alert mode. No reason to light up the screen by that activity either.

When I walk to the side of my car before opening it, the headlights turn on briefly and the sentry graphic comes onto the screen.

From what I remember seeing on my garage door, when you open your car even without TeslaCam I’m pretty sure the headlights flash as it wakes up. So that would be normal behavior. If you had your car activated for Sentry Mode and didn’t turn off on your app before going to your car, Sentry Mode will still be active when you get in and as a reminder pop up on the center screen. Sentry Mode will be disabled when you are in Reverse or Drive.

You have your phone on you by any chance (Phone as key)?

This was my thought also, but left phones inside the house and tried again - still nothing.

It should work even when plugged in and charging, correct?
