For autopilot you don't have to turn the wheel, just turn the left scroll button up or down a notch. (It also works with the right scroll button, but that changes your speed).
Sport--but I'm actually asking on behalf of my uncle's car. We both have set to sport and mine is much easier to apply side pressure for AP.
@AutoRocket When there's too much power assist you can't feel how loaded the front tires are in a turn, or when they're starting to lose grip.
They’re on 2022.4.5.3 btw@AutoRocket When there's too much power assist you can't feel how loaded the front tires are in a turn, or when they're starting to lose grip.
Heavier steering is not always better, at some point you don't need any more heft to have good steering feel and further heft just becomes unnecessary extra work. But too light is really bad for anyone who likes to drive their car hard and approach its limits.
With the old Model 3 software I actually preferred Standard over Sport, I felt like Sport was beyond that point, it was extra hefty without extra feel vs Standard.
Now even Sport is too light. The new steering is worst at low speeds. It's like the power assist is cranked way up at low speeds. Feels extremely unnatural, whereas before it felt like the level of assist was pretty constant, such that the steering naturally got lighter at higher speeds.
In sweeping high speed turns Sport still has enough heft left for good feel (but lighter than before!), however tight in low speed turns like hairpins it's pretty bad now.
I don’t think this is the issue I’m talking about. Their autopilot requires a ton of force to register as still awake and staying on.@AutoRocket When there's too much power assist you can't feel how loaded the front tires are in a turn, or when they're starting to lose grip.
