V11 - what’s your verdict?

[rotor2k]

I thought the auto seat heating was for the front only?

So did I.

 

[rotor2k]

With regards to the blind spot camera..... how many people still look behind them when reversing? Or do you solely rely on the cameras?

Cameras and mirrors -- rear view visibility is basically nil so it would be extremely dangerous without the cameras.

Sorry, my mistake. I thought Auto did both front and back. The heated seat in the back can't have been on for my poor old mum - oopsie...

We never had that feature ... but we did have Wh/mile ... (I also would like the feature returned to us and also have it so that when tapped it would switch between Wh/mile and miles/kWh.)

Good point

I cannot set my charging limit now on the car screen, only with the car app. 2016 P90D has anybody else noticed this?

I don’t think blind spot camera is useful at speed - you can normally adjust your mirrors so cars transition from rear view to wing and by the time they leave the rear view they’re visible out the side window for a quick check. Blind spot just distracts from that and you still have the blind spot warning apparantly (although I‘ve never had that go off so I’m curious to maybe try it out one day if I can.

But I think it can be useful for slow moving traffic where you might be surprised by a cycle coming up your inside when you’re turning left etc?

They could improve the standard blind spot monitoring - most cars have a light on the mirror. They don’t have that but they could flash a bright colour on the screen like a big vertical bar full height in the car visualisation part along with a beep. right now they turn the lane marker red I think which is barely noticable and certainly doesn’t catch your attention.

How do we view dash/sentry clips on v11? I can't quite figure it out (and have googled it but no joy there?).

Three dots at the bottom and look for "Dashcam". I struggled to find it as well lol

...and no im not saying my arse is hot or whatever nonsense you have to try and cajole the voice commands into understanding...

Here is a useful list of commands not sure about the above or even if it is up to date. Tesla Voice Commands

After driving today I don't think the blind spot cameras work particularly well because according to the highway code it should be mirror, signal and manoeuvre. However the camera doesn't come on until you signal. So that would make signal, mirror & manoeuvre and doing that tends to confuse and annoy people...

Well, I suppose, you could use mirror, signal, {final check of the blind spot camera} and then manoeuvre... But what's the point of doing that if you already checked in your mirror?

Also, when looking at the camera, following cars tend to look far away compared to what is seen when using the mirror.

I guess I'll only be using the blind spot camera to alert me if I leave the indicators running when I have music playing at a high volume...

It does with NoA in FSD, on a motorway when it suggested a lane change the camera view pops open before you indicate and move.

That to me sounds like a worthwhile feature.

I've noticed now I've used sat nav that certain things are worse.
Removed the specific button for navigate on auto pilot.
The map now auto zooms out when my ordinal preference is to have it closer. It also now seems offset to the left when previously it was centre of the screen.

Legacy model s here.

I only had a few miles on the previous version so I really didn’t get a chance to get used to the old menus etc. I quite like it and for me the main functions are all available without drama.

Not really bad enough time on Spotify or entertainment yet though.

That makes sense, I've been driving our Son-in-Law's Model X in Idaho for the past few weeks & this has really bugged me.

On one occasion I was approaching a quite complex main road/freeway junction & it had zoomed right out, close to the edge on the screen to the point that if the car hadn't had secondary nav directions behind the wheel I would have had no idea what to do. I really hope this isn't happening with the single screen Model 3 when I return & update to v11 in a few weeks.

(The Model X has FSD/v11 & was also offered the full FSD beta button but....typical Tesla!.... after accepting the upgrade & nothing happening he has now been informed that all cameras need upgrading first - FOC but even so why send the link to an unsupported car?).

I like the new UI a lot, aside from the location of some frequently used buttons such as fog lights.

However I've noticed that on this 2021 Model 3 with Intel Atom processor, it is a bit laggy in places - for example, the reversing camera video stutters since updating.

I assume the new MCU 3 with more powerful AMD processor should handle this better, and maybe it is optimised for that as it's similar to the refreshed Model S/X UI.

 

[Dommmm]

Really chuffed with the indicator cameras, I think that’s peace of mind for some occasions with a quick double check. Good job Tesla!

Also Sonic the hedgehog and the fact you can use a controller.

enjoy

The ability (or requirement) to use a game controller has always been a feature so is not related to any recent update.

I’ve noticed the lagginess on the rear view camera too.

Same. Stuttering rear view camera on a 3 week old Model 3 with V11.

I’ve set my iPhone to the priority device, but it doesn’t make any difference very infuriating just because my wife gets in first it goes to her profile, then I’m frantically trying to change it before it crushes me against the steering wheel. The only solution I’ve found is to set her profile name (on the locks screen) to mine, which means she has to set her profile manually. I drive on most occasions, so it works for me, but not so good for her.
I wish it would detect who’s in the driver’s seat to set the profile!

This has happened to me recently, when my seat starts to move to my wife's profile/seat position, I just hit the seat adjust button, and it stops. I then select my profile.
