Refreshed MS LR/Plaid Firmware status

[emailforbrett]

I think the big difference now with this update is that if your battery is at/near 100% SOC, the car will use brakes to slow when releasing the accelerator. Prior to this update, you'd coast and just about hit the guy in front of you by the time you realize that there is no regen.

Drove my car this morning after firmware 2022.16.0.2 was loaded a few days ago. Now the car displays break lights when you release pressure on the accelerator pedal.

This has always been there.

I was traveling this week, saw the notice on the app to connect to download. Just drove home from the airport and the notice is gone. Did they pull back the update?

I was surprised to see that new maps (version NA-2022.28-14046) was downloaded yesterday to our car.

Thanks for the heads up. My MS Plaid is downloading it now

Just curious if you’re on FSD Beta. Possible only going out to FSD beta customers in preparation for the next rev of firmware.… Downloading on my car but I am on FSD beta

Yep, I saw that today!

Not on FSD beta or EAP.

Has anyone observed their refreshed Model S make a deep whining sound after you park it after a drive? I think it started doing this after a SW update few weeks ago. The whining sound stops after about 15 minutes or so. I am guessing that it is the sound of coolant pump. I am currently on 2022.24.8

Yes. Check this thread out. Weird buzzing sound from Plaid after updating to 2022.24.6

Thanks. Hopefully it gets fixed via an OTA update soon.

Or, maybe, it's permanent "Pumpgate", like on the old 85 packs.

At least with those, it could be eliminated by staying below 77% SoC.

Has Tesla upgraded the earlier refreshed S or X cars so that the MCU tilts as the new ones do?
Also any news on when Tesla will make wireless game controllers available for our cars?

No updates on the tilt screen. We bought motors ourselves and installed them but they won't activate without Tesla changing the vehicle configuration.

We just received the 2022 holiday update last night and it added Bluetooth controller support.

No tilting in 2021 refresh model. Also no holiday update yet for FSD beta owners.

I'm in the queue for FSD beta, and haven't received the holiday update either.

Honestly being in the queue was probably the most exciting part of the entire beta experience. The software was and still is very mediocre for what it was hyped up to be.

Oh yes, well aware. I had it on my 2021 Plaid before it was bought back.
