I've done about 110 miles today on the new release, outwards during the day and back after sunset with rain some of the way in each direction.
On the way out the wipers performed flawlessly, on the way back they were mostly OK although I had to manually activate them about four or five times. They seem to have the biggest problem when it's light rain and the screen gradually becomes coated over a minute or so.
I got a forward collision warning when pulling away from traffic lights behind another vehicle, even though I was allowing to to pull away from me, so there's still work to do there.
I was pleasantly surprised with TACC, it started slowing to match the speed of anything in front of me before reaching the set follow distance so I didn't get the sudden slowing that I've seen in the past. It also seems to maintain speed if you indicate and pull out to pass a slower vehicle where previously it would continue slowing until you had completely moved into the other lane.
I much prefer the new Homelink controls, they now appear as large buttons below the vehicle visualisation when in range - considerably easier to use than the old setup.
I definitely miss the cards for tyre pressure and the trip computer, but other than that I've not found anything I hate yet. Still, early days!

I thought the blind spot cameras would be a great idea but the position means they're obscured by your hand when turning, so not visible anyway. I'll probably end up switching that feature off as it's worse having something that doesn't work than nothing at all.
everything that was an icon on the main screen before, should be on the list of things you can choose to add if you want. Even if they’re also in second level menus, no reason to not let us keep them as shortcuts - like defroster

I was driving tonight and the wipers and auto dip headlights are still pants.
Slow drizzle completely obscured the windscreen until a car approached so the cameras could see the lack of visibility. Then they wiped. How are cameras supposed to see rain in the dark?

I was encouraged by these wipers reports until you broke the spell
Although I would rather they err on the side of being slow, rather the over-enthusiastic/manic dry wiping I get most of the time.

I think this rapid dry wiping is showing the weakness when using camaras as any smear is seen as rain so triggering the wipers. Frost over the front cameras just after defrosting always triggers them for me. The windscreen is quicker to clear than the heated glass in front of the lenses.
Warning to those with power boot.
Do not show your young kids the light show if you hide the presents in the boot.
I have to do the boot bit manually.
Also why tease me with rear heated seats section on the screen but no seats to select.

Yep, this with old android vibes; it’s surprisingly bad, with basic Issues that should have been picked up in testing.. priority given to non control functions, rather than car control functions.

Why one more step for profiles. Why no easy access to tyre pressures. Why more steps to defrost the windows. This is awful. Changes for the sake of it. But it’s Tesla, it could have a turd with Elon’s face as a screensaver and people would still love it.

Had to drive in thick fog this evening.
Couldn’t find the fog lights on V11?!
I had to pull over so I could search through the menus. How it isn’t under “quick controls” with the headlight controls, where it used to be, Christ knows?!
Crazy?!
So now when you enter a town, you have to fumble through menus to turn the bloody thing off, then do the same again, when back out on the open road.

...and why in the hell can we not use the voice commands "front fog lights on/off" or "rear fog lights on/off"?
