[UK] 2022.24

[DrJFoster]

Seems to be a 2019/2020 issue. I don't believe anyone with a MIC 2021 or younger has had this issue.

Could be, there's obviously something different between the cars, if is 2020 and before then pre heat pump... #speculation

There's a guy on the UK facebook page saying the dynamic braking change is coming... not sure he's any more reliable. I might arrange to follow my friend at a distance and get him to do an emergency stop and see what happens

Dynamic braking change as in blended brakes?

The brakes lights already come on if you fully lift off the accelerator at a reasonable speed.

Blended brakes (where the car applies the brakes to smooth out situations where insufficient regen is available) seems to be a US only thing at the moment, I’ve not heard of anyone in the UK seeing it in their release notes.

No, neither of those. The brake lights are now said to flash if you're braking really hard as an extra warning. My previous BMW did this and I think most cars do as part of passive safety type measures. I've never followed myself and braked hard to know if our Tesla does it currently, whether this is new, or even whether we're getting it. On a related note, I've never noticed if the hazards come on automatically after a hard stop which my BMW used to do, although more often than I'd like.

Don’t know about the brake lights, but the hazards do come on if you mash the brakes during an emergency stop. I may have had this happen…

the brake lights definitely flash - you can just see it here:

Are you sure that's not just the effect of LEDs on a camera?

Dynamic Brake Lights (if equipped)​

If you are driving over 30 mph (50 km/h) and brake forcefully (or if Automatic Emergency Braking engages), the brake lights flash quickly to warn other drivers that Model 3 is rapidly slowing down. If Model 3 stops completely, the hazard warning lights flash. Flashing continues until you press the accelerator or manually press the hazard lights button to turn them off (see Hazard Warning Flashers).

I’d say, apart from the flashing brake lights, make it a horizontal array of leds and activate more leds, as a function of how strong the brakes are being hit.

A better visual signal doesn’t exist, imho

Not sure if anyone posted the release notes for 2022.24.5 so here are the ones we got in our Model Y. I usually do a manual two finger reboot after every update and, interestingly, the "Traffic Along Route" note only appeared after the reboot. Initially only the other three were showing.

Same for me. The traffic along route didn't show up, or work, until after a reboot. Though I had an additional note about suppressing sentry mode sounds before and after.

Yes. If you go back to 3:10 in the video you will see a car at the start with its brakes on (no flickering picked up by the camera).

Is anyone else's driver profiles remembering Spotify accounts?
We have a family account so we each have our own premium Spotify accounts so I don't have to listen to the terrible playlists she makes.. after logging in to each it doesn't seem to stay logged in.
When we switch to each others profiles it just defaults back to the car's own Spotify account (from premium connectivity) rather than keeping each logged in.
Wonder if this is just mine having a funny 5 mins (or me setting it up wrong!) or more widespread?

Randomly the same issue here not always a problem but enough to annoy

Wish you could get rid of the visualisation on the right of the screen on a 3/Y, or at the very least, move the map to the right, and the useless visualisations to the left hand side.

You can - get a LHD car

You can turn the visualisation off now according to the release notes but I haven’t tried it.

24.6 downloading now. @AnthonyLR you too?
I’ll report what I get on my March 2020 LR
Hopefully the alarm is fixed…

 

[Durzel]

24.6 eh? Nice.

Just woke my car up and.. nothing.

Not out of the woods yet. Set it going over an hour ago and still at 50% download
EDIT
went out to the car and it was downloading 0 bytes, ran speedtest in the web browser and by the time it ran, the download had completed. Just installing

 

[Durzel]

At least it's at 50% rather than nothing

 

[Dilly]

OK. This is what showed up in the release notes for an early 2020 M3LR

I’ll check the alarm issue after the car’s had a kip
This is the Nav map. not sure how different it is. It requires premium connectivity, which I have.
