[UK] 2024.8.x

[ajmorr.is]

Unfortunately Tesla doesn't have adaptive cornering tech in the lights, so the whole "illuminate the pavement" configuration of them will momentarily blind people in instances where you're sweeping across their field of view. I don't think there is a solution for that short of dropping them down quite a bit. Unfortunately I think it is a case of "it is what it is".

The other option is in the adjustment menu to move the horizontal adjustment as far to the left as possible on both lights.

Fog lights cornering like on many brand/models maybe?

Alas no foglights on new Model 3s

Looks like those of us who have not gotten 2024.8.4 may be getting 2024.8.7 soon. Hopefully soon!

Where did you see that? Only place I can see mentioning it is not a tesla app.

I saw the tweet from Tesla info who seem to have been first on all the 2024.8 releases. Release notes they publish say it’s a security fix which I guess means they may revisit cars already on releases requiring the fix.

Quite impressed. They’re playing it safe with the blanking so could go even finer on the precision. Interestingly I was cursing two cars behind me with dazzling headlights and they were both Model 3s. Hope mine isn’t doing the same.

Autopilot much less panicky too. It’s definitely seeing indicators and braking for them, which is intriguing but also a tiny bit annoying. Fewer failed lane changes too. Not unique to 2024.8 as it’s been a gradual improvement since the disaster that was last summer.

They announced the new park feature so close to 2024.8.2 that I forgot to appreciate the long awaited matrix headlights and cannot wait for the next one with Autopark now

I noticed a few releases ago that it was spotting indicators when on AP and reacting which was clever. I even spotted that when a car one lane to the left ahead of me on a motorway started indicating that AP changed it to the target (darker grey) before it had even started to make the lane change.

Stop rubbing it in, some of us are still in the stone ages with our 2024.2.x versions.

Makes it more likely to get the new autopark as it’s part of that Stone Age release branch

I’ve given up trying to work out what release I should be expecting - seems there’s been a bunch of 2024.2.xx releases even after the 2024.8.xx ones - the automatic gear select won’t know if it’s coming or going..

And then we can assign the right stick for wiper speed.

Don't mention the wipers arrgh!!!

Teslafi indeed now showing 2024.8.7 as going out. Already some installs with a couple of hundred pending.

Here’s hoping I get it this round!

2024.8.7 just installed here. Won't have a chance to test it out until this evening.

Sadly on wife’s car it’s just standard autopilot so wouldn’t get it regardless. I think if I buy a Tesla it would have Enhanced Autopilot assuming it looks like those missing features are now starting to turn up. I’d mainly want it though for the lane change feature.

Matrix headlight branch for me please.

I don’t expect to get that one either. I think our car normally jumps on the bandwagon around a .8 release when it’s all pretty much been tested and verified across the early adopters. Shame the Advanced and Standard option for when you get updates in the car doesn’t actually seem to do anything to influence which group you are in.

Likewise, just installing now.

Even if it was REALLY good in its initial release, could it sway you/her towards buying the EAP add-on for your car?

I don't know why Tesla hasn't extended the EAP/FSD monthly subscription to Europe instead of limiting it to the one-off £3.5k/£7k purchase...
