Me too, it looks like the one I got 2 days ago. But I sat in the car for this update and I saw UPDATING AUTOPILOT and UPDATING ECU’s and there were all sorts of CLUNKS and noises. Wonder what this update did with all that going on?

Howdy. I am curious about the function of this site. Does it track all cars everywhere? How does it get its data. Etc etc
Thank you in advance.

It's a subscription service. Here's some info, to include their fleet breakdown...

Enjoy!

I got this yesterday and it installed this morning. Everything worked (like autopilot) and it seems to have cleared up an intermittent "Left door pillar camera blocked or blinded" warning I was getting with the 2020.28.5 SW.

Anyone else noticing some efficiency increases with this update? Loving it! Estimated Range definitely better, and Rated Range creeping up slightly too. Unexpected given the summer heat/associated drain.
Also feel like Autopilot was refined a bit. Smoother, still some corner/phantom braking. But not like some earlier bakes.

I think placebo effect is common when we get these new versions. With 28.5 and .6, my MY consumption seems a bit higher than before.
But again, lots of confounders.
Strange change to the traffic light warning - now I get two warnings, one a long way before the light and another at the usual lead time. Will reboot today.
I didn't take the update this morning when I saw this, as I was on my way into work. But those notes there read like capabilities/updates I took several (?5?) days ago? I took delivery on my Model Y six days ago though, and I'm awfully new (newb) to all of this, so maybe I'm confused/mistaken...

I took delivery on July 28th and installed 28.6 the next morning. Then I get it again and installed that one, is this normal for Tesla?

My best guess is you actually went from a delivery build to 28.5, and very quickly at that, then to 28.6 in short order, like we did with these particular two.
Many times on the interim updates the notes are the same or very similar. And as you can see, there is no set timeframe or discernible reason on when you get them. You are at the behest of the Mothership and get the goodies when she, or her Service Minions, decide to dole them out...
At least in our whopping 4+ months of experience. Maybe some of the old timers will weigh-in with more knowledge.

The dot versions are generally minor bug fixes and rarely add any functionality.

OT but no, and rightfully so imo, if you care about your customers. The longest, most frustrating "unsubscribe" experience in my life came from these guys - worse than any gym I've belonged to. Never again.

You just have to know how to play their game. But routinely, the $300/year renewal can be negotiated to less than half that with a threat to cancel.
With the sale of our MS (with XM), I was able to get the all-access streaming (sans MLB that's only available with a satellite radio subscription) for $30/6 months. I'll play the renewal game with them again in January.
