P85D & P90D - 2019.20.1 Firmware

[Grumble]

My issue with slacker is that it won't work unless you sign in. I've tried signing in with my Tesla account to no avail. I've created a new account but still nothing. It won't get past the sign in screen. It's not just a connectivity issue as it also won't work when I'm on wifi.
I like the tune in app, it just buffers so much that it's almost pointless. If I can get it to load something then it works fine, but I have to try again and again for upwards of 10-15 minutes before a podcast loads up. Half of the time I'm already where I was going by the time it loads.

Geek, you need to get it to a service center. I'm sure they'll figure it out.

I don’t know if it’s related to this firmware, but on my first drive after the upgrade I was treated with this.

Not reported. Has it cleared with a reboot?

I'm a fairly new owner so don't have a lot of experience with firmware updates but doing some light research, it looks like update frequency has more than tripled between 2018 and 2019. Generally, change creates instability. I think we might be living that first hand.

No, quite the opposite. The update frequency per vehicle has decreased from every 2-3 weeks back in 2017/2018 to more like once every 5-7 weeks now. There are now subreleases being shipped off the same main firmware which appear to be geared towards more subsets of the vehicle population, whereas in the past everybody got the same firmware pushed more often. The subreleases seem to come out more often.

Ok thanks for the info

No. I did a full reboot (power car off for three minutes). I reported it to Tesla, who is trying to do remote diagnostics.

What month\year model do you have?

 

[Grumble]

Anyone else with a P90DL updated yet? I've been clicking the x on the nag screen for a few days now and deathly afraid to update

Still on 2019.16.2. Haven’t had any issues with firmware on my P85D. Must have missed one of the threads. What was borked?

You haven't seen any reduction in range with 16.2+?

 

[sorka]

I'm still on 2018.25.8 and hoping to stay there as long as the vpn connection works.

 

[sorka]

Yes. My March 2015 Ludicrous P85D+’s rated range at 90% has remained at 223 miles for quite some time charging at home and at Superchargers. Earlier this month I charged to 99% / ~ 249 miles using our High Power Wall Connector set to 60A (on 100A / 240V circuit) just before leaving on a long road trip (I didn’t want to wait for 100%). This was very close to my P85DL’s 257 mile original range which is IMHO impressive after 48,000 miles.

My P85DL at delivery charged to 100% was 253 which is the advertised range as well.

You haven't seen any reduction in range with 16.2+?

Nope. Still get 250 miles full charge (down 3 from new). Car has 35,000 miles now. Daily charge to 80%. Almost never supercharge (none for a few years).

I have 2019.16.2 and was prompted for an upgrade. Didn’t see on the screen version it was trying to install...how can one tell prior to accepting...?

Also, no loss in range when I upgraded to 2019.16.2

Just ran the update on my P90D. Nothing in release notes except a fix for dog mode and a couple “bug fixes”

 

[jmillic]

Last night I updated my 2015 P85D to 2019.20.2.1.
Today I noticed that I that my kwh/mile was in the low 400s. Very strange

I bought a CPO 2015 P85D. I'm on 2018.50.6, and have never seen the screen to update.

Don't update! They have introduced nothing of value since then. Everything has been a *sugar* show for us AP1 performance models.

 

[Ole Capt]

Just charged to 90% after update and I’ve lost at least 2-3 miles of range.

Where is there a list of updates that apply to P85D generation cars?

 

[bhzmark]

Nope. Still get 250 miles full charge (down 3 from new). Car has 35,000 miles now. Daily charge to 80%. Almost never supercharge (none for a few years).

Same. except 20k more miles and supercharge ~10 times a year on road trips.

My range and power is unchanged. I have the following issues after updating from 2018.50.x.

Push to talk times out on first use. Worked perfectly every time prior to update.

The browser hangs after about 10 minutes of use. Requires a full reboot to get it functional again. Browser worked perfectly prior to update

When either making or receiving a phone call over Bluetooth, there is no audio. You have to scroll the volume dial to hear the other party. This issue did not exist prior to the update.
