what's the trick to get autopark to work?!

[doubledrat]

had autopark for several weeks now and have seen it offer to park in my work's car park just once (it didn't do a bad job of it to be fair).

we have clearly marked bays.

what's the trick to get it to actually offer to park for you? I'm crawling along at 5 mph or so - I thought that's all you needed to do?

My 2022 Model S used to work in identifying spaces just fine before I got the FSD Beta download three weeks ago. Since then, Autopark hasn’t worked for me once in identifying spaces. Same parking lots I always use, freshly paved with prominent white lines. What the hell, Tesla? A $120k car that can’t even park itself and Ford does this flawlessly.

Normally have no issues getting it to auto park. Recently found a new button I rarely see - a grey P - that rarely pops up. While In the right hand lane (the Tesco filter) I pressed it and it tried to parallel park into the through flow lane to my left. Some poo came out and I stopped it but now I know what it does!

Exactly.
Autopark used to work flawlessly each and every time before I upgraded to FSD Beta. Now it NEVER appears. It's frustrating.

You UK based? - there is a Brampton in UK. If so, presumably you mean FSD (pretty much like everything on Tesla, still in) Beta, or simply FSD (or more accurately EAP+stop line control) rather than the US/Can FSD (city streets) Beta which is something completely different?

I don't know where you are from or how that is relevant, but my issue with Autopark started after installing Full Self Driving Beta (which is for driving on city streets).

This is a UK forum ...

... FSD is not available for city streets in UK

Come to that, ordinary FSD does not a lot in the U.K.

I have one car with FSD (and monthly subscription and probably some other stuff) and the other without (it has no extras, no Subs, etc. etc.)

The 2nd car gets the Updates first, often a week ahead. Even Patreon can "delay" YouTubes to freeloaders ...

Oh got it... I didn't realize that I was looking at a UK forum. There's a Surrey in Canada too. But I was responding to a post by a person based in US on this forum.
Wish you guys all the best!

I posted a official Tesla response about this - it can’t be textured surface or have badly painted lines (ie it needs to be black tarmac with solid white line, no coloured lines or block paving etc)

So, just bring a mop and a bucket to clean the tarmac and then repaint the lines with the white paint you also brought. After that, pop back into the car and push the auto-park button! Easy peasy!!
