[uk] UltraSonic Sensors removal/TV replacement performance

[JupiterMan]

On a positive note - My car farts, can do a lightshow, can play games on the screen and can watch a film - all of which I don't use. Dear Elon, can you send your frippery development teams over to the wiper and auto headlight team to give them a hand - and (as @Tony Hoyle said) the guy that wrote the visualisations for bins - as he is streets ahead of the game.

I do wonder about all of this. I did about a thousand miles last week, mainly in the dark and with some rain, using FSD/Autopilot for most of the trip.
Headlights/full beam/wipers all worked great, needed to add a manual screen wash/wipe maybe twice - broadly similar to my previous non Tesla experience I would say.

I'm not saying others don't have problems, but I have yet to see any fundamental issues that give me any concern with wipers or full beam - only thing I can think of is that full beam should not activate where there are street lights. But TeslaVision is a thumbs up from me so far.

and only very small phantom break I had was about 1 minute from home at end of our week away (v nearly did the whole week without one!)

Interesting discussion on one of the youtube video on USS removal and M3 behaviour without USS.

So for 2023 cars you no longer see any ‘lines’ or indication of how close you are to objects? If Tesla disable current sensors on my Y I will be furious.

Teslavision ‘replacing’ sensors is vapourware

Probably unrelated to this but my Q3 MY doesn't seem to have any parking chimes anymore. The line is still there to show me how close I am, but can't figure out if I've muted the chimes? Either way I can't find out how to unmute and the navigation volume is fine.

One of the recent updates switched off the chimes, you can go into the settings to reenable them

Where abouts? I've checked but no luck finding so far.

I think it’s under the autopilot section

Which would explain my confusion up until now, as to how I nearly reversed into a parked Golf recently!!! And come to think of it, yep there’s no chimes !

for whatever misguided reasons they’re removing them, I hope they never remove support for cars that do have them - at least in reverse/when manually parking. You’re not in AP etc - I just want an idea of where things are around me, like I’ve had for 20 years with other cars by now, and grown to be very used to. Aside from safety systems, parking sensors are probably one of the best convenience features added to cars

Luckily the car braked for me, when it didn't switch from reverse to drive. Just felt like I was a learner in a dual control car.

I’ve found on 2022.36.6 the wipers are better - they seem to have swapped the hyper active way they worked before for a more reserved approach, almost too slow, but it’s a lot easier to trigger a manual wipe now and then than the previous “turn it off and try and set a sensible manual speed” or not use AP at all. Maybe they do listen!

Interesting comments.

Has anyone seen any real world videos of the new behaviour without USS? Is it simply just a video when you reverse?

The new capability isn't out for anyone to see, it's 'coming soon' so no one knows what it will be like. There's an interim state for new cars shipped without sensors before the new is ready, I've also not seen anyone video that but from Tesla's announcement they will just not have beeps, lines or measurements until the new capability is ready.

Yeah sorry, I meant the current basic functionality. Just wanted to see if it's truly as simple as it sounds. I also presume you get nothing if you're going forwards slowly into a space and just the video when reversing but would be good to see anyway!

It's "coming soon". Straight after the 50 engineers Elon has deployed to Twitter to make fart noises when you open the app and increased the border by 2 pixels, they'll get hard at work telling you why you don't need to see to park.

What ‘new capability’ are people expecting on cars with no sensors? The same functionality as with sensors?

Und so sieht das auf dem Display aus, wenn ich vor einer Mauer stehe bzw. wenn ich in meine Garage rückwarts fahre. Beim Bild vor der Mauer bekomme ich kein Bild der Frontkamera angezeigt. Aber vermutlich mache ich noch etwas falsch. Bin mit der Bedienung noch nicht wirklich vertraut. Ein Bild...

Take a look at the pictures there. Use Google Translate to get the gist of things.

Sounds like they are starting to rollout the update that adds vision based parking distances.

It will be interesting to see how it works.

It's nice to see programmers enthusiastic enough to get erections over their achievements...
