Great idea - I have just done that too!

Does anybody know how to use the navigation (Model 3) to identify the next upcoming gas station or rest area on-route while driving on the highway in Europe??? Having small kids I run into this problem all the time. My Mercedes has this feature in the Navi that is always shows how many...

With two young kids in the back I get this phrase regularly while driving on the highway (Europe).... Please help me find out how I quick and easy find the answer to how far it is to the next highway gas station (Raststätte) on my route. I have tried to ask the navi in all sorts of ways but it...

The fact that Tesla has always been at risk of going bottom up has made it somewhat understandable that Elon was always trying to sell things that were not finished. However, with the impressive shareprice increases there really is no reason left to promise more than reality. Hence I sincerely...

Yeap - very likely. And Tesla need to deliver it this year - otherwise it would be the second time they miss the “by end of year” deadline. Personally it would have gone a long way for me if Elon had provided a tiny apology or acknowledgement that this was due by end 2019, and bla bla bla...

Damn it - i noticed 2020.32 being worse and was hoping 2020.36 would get better. I am so tired of being part of Teslas software development team.

Precisely how I feel!

Not really buying that being true but even if it was then it is a really sad trade off tesla made. Taking basic stuff below standard to make AP work - not ok.

My 2010 Mercedes E350 has less Phantom braking than my 2019 Model 3 with the full FSD package :-( It is an enigma to me why my Tesla continues to have this problem. It was solved a decade ago so why on earth is Tesla struggling so much with getting it right???

Happy for you - but maybe not super interesting for the general forum, sorry.

Bought a $18 charger on amazon - all good :-)

Thanks all I am not going to risk my favorite car . Just needed to know if there was a hack - but no. I am actually about to sell the old bugger - if anybody is actually going to pay money for it

Any suggestions how I might use my M3 to start my oldtimer with a drained battery?

Newer Teslas cannot read speed signs so your car will inevitably get it wrong every time map date deviate from reality (75% as you observed). The AP1 teslas can do it but Elon decided years ago to stop paying the company who holds the patent on this technology and removed this function from cars...

If there was a “workaround” they would have done it long time ago. More likely they are now making a deal with mobileye - swapping patents or simply paying the licensing fee. Elon has been silent on reading speed signs for long time so the fact he says “soon” likely means the deal with...

Thanks for sharing that! Time will tell what soon means. Elon is not the most credible man I know.

That is also my suspicion based in similar experiences. MObileEye holds the patent to 2030 so my car will a pile of rust before it gets real time speed limit detection. Teslas will never achieve any FSD without ability to read speed sign as you pass them - simple fact.

For me it is frequent enough that my wife HATES when I drive with AP on... :-(

I have a M3 with all the latest bells and whistles and I am sorry to say that what you are looking for is not available in this car. It will do stop and go traffic very well and keep you on the lane you are driving in. But it will not prevent you from backing into things, hitting suddenly...

Does it really matter... map data will inevitably always be behind reality

Thanks - super helpful! had hoped for something earlier but guess not. crossing my fingers for cross-licensing

Hi All Does anybody know when the patent(s) on reading speed signs that Mobile Eye holds will expire? (These are possibly the reason why new Teslas are unable to read speed signs as it passes them).

Hi all, Any ideas for new rims that have become available this spring??? I love the Ronal R51 - unfortunately it is only availble for Model 3 performance in 20”. My preference is 18” or 19”. Have a great spring out there

Thanks for sharing your experience. I will continue to resist the temptation to play with smart summon.

I DO look forward to the 2020.08 update because it supposedly should fix the voice command issues I am having. However - that is simply fixing something that is not working. So I very much sympathise with the heading of the thread. A lot of what gets updated are fixed to things there were not...

Did you notice real world improvement in Recognizing voice commands?

The point of the poll is actually to understand the spread for a given model - so ok for me that there are different conditions, age, battery wear, configurations, etc I mean the value displayed in the app when 90% charged! Also, please choose the higher range if your estimate hits the...

Curious what the spread is on the range estimates (the on provided in the app) when 90% charged :-) This is for M3 AWD long range ONLY. Kindly be courteous and not polute thread and poll with estimates from other versions. If your car is in miles then simply convert to kilometers.

I am experimenting with setting up wifi from my phone and letting car connect this way. That allows instant connectivity after leaving oarking garage. Just have to test if car will jump to my phones wifi automatically.

Yes, precisely same recurring issue for as long as I have had the car

My M3 HW3 can recognize the spoken words but not recognize them as a command??? Very strange. I am on 2020.4.1

Argghhhh ..no way :-) We may just wait for alternative manufacturers to get serious about EV.

Same feeling for me and my wife. The artificial leather in our model 3 feel strangly hot after 1/2 hour. Something we have not experienced in or previous Mercedes’.

Both my wife and find the white vegan “leather” seats in our model 3 unpleasantly warm. Our comparison is Mercedes leather seats.

Any know if you can set multiple home or favorite locations for disabling Sentry mode both at home and at vacation house?

Recognize and respond to traffic lights and stop signs. Automatic driving on city streets. is still being advertised and sold on Tesla homepage across the world on 17th Dec... anyone heard what is happening. Or are we getting closer to fradulent advertising if Tesla has internal knowledge they...

Tesla is often quick to release updates with features that are not perfected yet. With NOA on highways it is a major news event every time a Tesla driver hurts or kills himself while using the beta feature. Automatic city driving has potential to severely backfire because now it is not the...

My experience too - unfortunately.

I am very interested to hear how specifically you got your set up approved?? A LOT of us are looking for non-standard rims.... How much did it cost? What paperwork was required? What was required to actually give the approval?

I lose LTE connectivity for uo to 5-10 min every time i cross the country border. Living in a country border triangel this is a real issue

Anyone with software v40 able to comment on whether “deep rain” is noticable better/different?

The problem is Tesla didnt perfect/finish it before implementing it. Not cool.

Missed opportunity to transition traditional ICE truck drivers to a more sustainable future. This truck will likely end up as an additional “pet” car for affluent americans that might even have an EV already.

“Deep rain” is too little too late. As a custumer I had never imagined my brand new 60kUSD car would not have such standard equipment.

Wondering if “manual adjustment” means to change from Auto to the I, II, III or IIII setting - or also includes pressing the stalk for single extra wipe

Just want to share something my wife and I have come to realize after we got our M3. We drive more sporty and things in trunk tend to fly around. Hence we have now permanently taken the lid on the trunk “hidden compartment” out. This provides a deep hole for grocery bags and other stuff when...

I would like to know too....

Whau - scary videos. Glad you and toddler survived this AP incidence. To me writing “beta” or disclaimers in manual doesn’t matter. The underlying problem is that Tesla happily deploy functions that are 95% finished and then improve on them in real world. Other car companies have chosen to make...
