Just got and installed the update (was previously on 2018.26.3...yes car has not been used in a while). Release notes say this update provides the "PIN to Drive" option under security settings. No other release notes (and it's one paragraph at the top of a large, mostly blank release notes page) and (unlike before) you can't scroll down to see previous release notes.

Yep, PIN to drive is active, wish it were more than 4 digits though I don’t know how many attempts you get before some kind of lockout, if there is one.

They promised Firmware 9 with new AP2+ EAP or FSD features by end of August. This was end of August. No update to V9. Wtf??
You must be new to Tesla. The dates are never ever actually met, it could literally be months from now before V9 is released.

Don’t consider anything Elon says as a promise. Consider it as a wildly optimistic maybe. They really need to put a disclaimer on Elon’s Twitter account.

Especially when it is not worded as what could be reasonably taken as a promise....or even a specific date.
Maybe there’s another I’ve not seen but what I have seen on this is a comment of “hopefully” & “in a few months”.
Elon usually gives 2 time frames for maybe and definitely by. You take the definitely one and double it. he's usually only a little bit late if you use that. We should expect ver 9 in 9 weeks from his statement of 4. We're in week 5. That's my napkin math.

Going a little off topic, but the instrument cluster in my early 2013 has restarted many times since this update installed. It's distracting/disconcerting to have the IC go dark and reboot while driving 
Anyone else?

Yes. I was told any classic on 2018.28.5 or newer has its instrument cluster rebooting every few minutes. They’ve known about the issue for nearly 3 weeks, have not stopped rolling it out to new vehicles, and have no timeline for a fix. 2018.32.2 was supposed to fix the issue but did not.Going a little off topic, but the instrument cluster in my early 2013 has restarted many times since this update installed.

When I called the SC about it last week they said they were getting dozens of calls a day about it. When I explained the issue my car was having the guy just sighed.
To any classic owners reading: DO NOT install any firmware updates until this has been confirmed to be fixed.

I don’t know, but I rented a Model 3 for a day and I thought the standard system in my Model S sounded better. My theory is that the acoustics are better in my car with the Alcantara lined solid roof.
