According to Whole Mars Catalog, a Consumer Reports recent review rated Mercedes-Benz Driver Assistance with a higher score than Tesla Autopilot. Probably not a fair comparison when using FSD V12.3.6, but quite funny to watch none the less.. YouTube.com Whole Mars Catalog Vid

Any comments about the ability to bring the wheel alignment back to factory specs after changing the springs or coil-overs? Camber changes with ride height, so different springs might improve shock travel, but affect ride height

I used adhesive backed Velcro strips to adhere the front license plate holder to the PPF. Installed 5+ years ago, without problems.

I agree, the side view mirrors are poor for viewing, but great looking from the outside. You can set the side cameras to display on the center display when applying turn signals. There is also blind spot warning settings. Basically with the car's traffic visualization on the center display...

Could be the cameras come with the B pillar part as an assembly. It might be interesting to find out if they changed the B pillar applique part number on other car models with change to Autopilot 4.0 cameras.

The online Tesla Service Manual details the B and C pillar seals. For 2024+ Model 3's, the applique bolt cover is molded into the camera holder glass, while on earlier Model 3's, the bolt cover is a separate part. 2024+... Earlier cars... bolt cover separate part.... The C pillar...

No. But just do it. Contrary to what the dialog box says, it doesn't require driving 100 miles. From my recent experience, Camera Calibration typically takes less than one mile of city driving combined with about 5 miles of highway driving. Be sure to do the calibration driving during mid-day...

The Sony PS5 Wireless Controllers work great. I bought this pair, but haven't used them that much. Easy to connect wirelessly to the Tesla, but it seems to take over the ON/OFF button on the PS5 Controller, Only quirk that I noticed, is a way to turn them OFF once connected wirelessly...

You won't see the driver profile on the Navigation Screen while driving the car. But if you tap on the Controls Menu icon, and at the top of the menu, you'll see the driver profile icon, which you can tap on to bring up your driver profiles, and select a different profile.

In the Controls Menu, there is a Chill setting for Acceleration under Pedals & Steering. I created a driver profile for FSD, with the acceleration set to "Chill". When driving the car, the driver profile is not shown on the Navigation Screen for selecting another profile, but you can still...

It will be like Johnny Cab in the movie Total Recall. Tesla using FSD (Supervised) with Optimus Robot doing the driver supervision. Additionally, Optimus robot will handle humanoid tasks for Supercharging, and customer needs.

Apparently FSD now requires additional Camera Calibrations, beyond the original Autopilot Camera Calibration. If you force an Autopilot Camera Re-Calibration by deleting the Calibration Data from the Controls - Service menu, you'll see that after Autopilot Calibration completes, additional FSD...

There is more information about the console wiring for both pre and post 2.0 Consoles in another forum thread on the Tesla Owners Online web site, where I discussed harness differences, wiring details, connectors, and terminal release tools, early in this other forum thread: Link.. Tesla...

Likely the bolts were improper installed following removal during a service operation or inspection. The Tesla Service Manual specifies using purple Loctite thread sealant on the associated bolt threads, along with with a torque wrench at specified torque setting.
