I’ve had it for 2 days now and as far as I can see there are no new joys whatsoever! Mind you I am one of those poor sods with the “legacy“ vertical screen (Raven MX) so nothing much for me in any of the updates - we don’t even get the upgraded energy app.36.6 just updated here. I wonder what joys this will bring? I’m sure AHB have been perfected.

It took bout 2 hours to download and install for 36.5 on mine this afternoon, with a big pause at 50%...
Like someone else said, interested why some are getting 36.5, and others 36.6. For reference, my car is a 2020 M3P if that means anything.

Probably A/B testing. Speculation is that they do this often - giving some cars one version and other cars another so they can monitor how the two versions compare in real life use.

This would be plausible if Tesla actually did any testing in their software, which judging by the number of bugs in it and the un-friendliness of it, I suspect they don’t actually do
FWIW I’ve been studying the AHB behaviour since doing a bit of later driving, many of the key flaws are predictable and as such, should be easily fixed if Tesla bothered to work on it. For normal 2 lane bi-directional roads, it copes pretty well, as good as the competition I’ve experienced. However I see 3 key issues. First, it fails miserably on dual carriageways/motorways, it doesn’t regularly react to oncoming traffic when it’s not in the next lane. Second, it’s irrational when in well lit area, towns and roads where there’s quality street lights and good visibility. It’s on and off like a flashing beacon, blinding pedestrians and other traffic. Most normal systems dissable with good street lighting. Finally I suspect it’s vector based, so it doesn’t dip the beam unless the car is pointing at the oncoming vehicle (+/- a few degrees), if your steering angle is slightly off, it won’t dip. The second point should be really easy to fix, massively reducing frustration. Likewise for point 3.

There are 3 different forward facing cameras, each with a different field of view. I wonder if it’s only using the narrow field one which is designed for seeing further away, hence anything outside that field of view just isn’t seen by the AHB system?
@AnthonyLR Surprisingly yes. Only installed 36.5 yesterday morning and .6 was waiting for me this morning.
Presume we get 40.x tomorrow
It was a bit confusing getting "Update Complete" and "Software Available" notifications at the same time.
There must be some logic behind back to back updates but I cannot think of it.@AnthonyLR Surprisingly yes. Only installed 36.5 yesterday morning and .6 was waiting for me this morning.

I suspect you may be right, I didn’t know the mid camera had a slightly different function, if it has physical limitations it could be the reason why they haven’t fixed it.
I got 36.5 yesterday while looking at the new energy graph today I noticed that it said I could save 0.2% by changing the temperature to 22c, which was confusing as it had been set to 22c all the time I'd been in the car.
There was a hunch (I think via Facebook, you read so much in various places things can end up going full circle), that keeping your app open prevents the car from sleeping and the 50% pause is reduced. I imagine anything to keep the car awake might do the same if Tesla are now more aggressively sending the cars to sleep. Worth a try if you're having the issue.
As for 2022.36.6, is it my imagination or does the image of the car on the screen now turn as you turn? Maybe it just turns more than it did, but I'm now seeing the side of the car quite clearly when turning, and I'd have thought I would have noticed that before. Or should I have gone to specsavers?
