I've never experienced this error until a couple updates ago. Now it's happening very often.

With the recent update has anyone figured out how to disable auto-raising suspension? Thanks.

I'm not saying that I want the car to be exactly 84 degrees Fahrenheit, what I'm saying is that at the 81 setting the car will start to settle into a temperature that is too cold at times for what I want, and if I set it to HI, even at a very low fan setting, the hottest possible air is still...

At the 81 setting, the car will blow cooler air, at the same fan setting, than at 84. It is not a placebo effect, and it's not that the car is generating more or less heat to blow, it's that the car starts blowing cooler, unwarmed (or cooled) air (i.e. kinda like turning on the cold water tap...

Yes, that is exactly what I want, but can no longer do. Now I have to set it to HI to achieve the same thing, and I can no longer back off the temp as gradually as the cabin warms up. But that's the thing, I don't want a stronger blast of cooler (e.g. 81) temperature, I want a lower blast of...

Was there ever a solution for this (i.e. to disable this feature completely, or prevent it from constantly re-adding a location)? This has become tremendously annoying, distracting, and potentially dangerous. Thanks.

Is it just me, or does anyone else find this very annoying? Now that the weather is turning cold, I like to set my temp to 84-86 to warm up and stay warm and then gradually reduce the temp. But with the 8.0 update, I now only have the choice of 81 or HI. HI is too hot and 81 is too cold...

I too would very much like to see a toggle, or the ability to disable this.

AP 8.0 is definitely smoother in terms of acceleration, deceleration and reaction times to changes in speed, but it is vastly worse, and more dangerous, than 7.1 in terms of lane-keeping and auto-steer. I have used it 6 times since it came out and every time I've had to take over to avoid a...

AutoPilot is definitely more dangerous in 8.0 than it was in 7.1. I have had several close-calls where if I had not taking over, I would have veered off the road, into another vehicle, or slammed into the back of a slow-moving vehicle in my lane in front of me. AP is definitely smoother in...

I have to do this every day. It's becoming a huge pain. :(

Thanks! I was using the built-in forum search here, but will use Google from now on; it worked much better. Don't know why I didn't think of that. Appreciate it!

Hi folks, I tried to search for other threads on this, but the forums will not allow me to search for the term "USB" as it claims the term is too short. I'm not exactly sure how long ago this started, but I recently realized that my car will no longer allow me to use the USB stick that has...

Hi folks, I tried to search for other threads on this, but it will not allow me to search for "3G" (saying the search term is too short). For the last couple months I've been losing my 3G connection pretty much every day while parked at work, or in my home garage. In other words, every day I...

I just started experiencing this (significant thump in the rear that feels like something heavy dropping into the trunk) recently. Was there any consensus as to what it is? Rear Drive Unit issue? I have service scheduled for May 27 but I'm wondering if I should push this up. Thanks!

I suppose it's possible, but Smart Preconditioning was, and still is disabled. If the AC was turned on, I didn't turn it on. My cell phone was in my backpack the entire meeting. The app was not open when I left the meeting, and again, the car was 112 degrees when I returned to it, so if AC...

If it was the climate control fan last night why did it come on only after I put the car in park, and why would it be much louder than the climate fan noise I've heard before? I wasn't using climate control (or at least not above fan speed 1) during the drive home last night; I had the windows...

I'm pretty sure I wasn't parked on a vent. Range mode was on. I specifically did not turn on AC / climate from the app, as I wanted to conserve charge. Also, as an additional anecdotal bit of info, when I pulled in and parked in my garage last night I heard the battery fan come on after I...

I understand your point, but I've heard the battery fan before at Super Chargers, and my recollection from the other day was that the fan sound was the same. It sounds different than if the car interior is being warmed or cooled from the app. I don't recall any other such incidents. Thanks.

Yes, the fan was on and audible as I approached the car. I had woken up the car with the app, but had not set any climate changes. As I said before, I did not pre-condition. If the cooler wasn't responsible, what do you attribute the fan sound, or the depletion of charge, to?

The battery fan was on when I got back to my car, so yes, I'm pretty sure that's what it was. I disabled the "smart" preconditioning thing several months ago. No new update was installed. There was pretty much zero wind, and even then, when I parked the car the estimate was 16%, and when I...

The other day I had a business trip in Vancouver, BC, and I drove up in my P85D from Woodinville, WA (near Seattle). I've done this trip a few times before so I didn't think much about it or have any real range anxiety. What I do is charge to full overnight, drive up to Vancouver in the...

My initial take on the lack of an instrument panel in front of the driver was that a heads-up-display projector is at least an option, if not standard.

I miss this feature as well and can't understand why it was removed. Why do we now have to reconfigure / dual-purpose the scroll wheel, requiring many additional steps, just to do something that was available, and easier, before, if there is no justifiable reason it was removed?

Is anyone able to see any warnings when you exceed the relative or absolute speed settings for Speed Assist since upgrading to v7? I still see the speed sign, but not a warning that I'm exceeding the speed limit I've set. Thanks.

HVAC (heat at least) seems to be much less effective, and less efficient in terms of battery usage, for me, than it was pre-v7.

Mine was done at the service center. I can confirm temp and time are now permanently displayed at the bottom of the driver's instrument panel. This update still hasn't fixed the missing Speed Alert warning that disappeared with the onset of v7.

I was hopeful v7 fixed it for me as well, as I was 4 for 4 yesterday, but today it took me 4 attempts to close the garage door. :(

Updating now.

Spotify and Waze integration are on the top of my wish list.

Oh, to clarify, yes the normal garage door opener clicker works fine. I'd just prefer to not have to use it. Thanks!

Does anyone have any insight into ways to improve my Homelink signal? A couple months ago it became very flaky: sometimes it opens / closes the garage door immediately, and from farther away; sometimes I sit right in front of the garage door and have to press the button 5 or 6 times (with 3-5...

I agree completely. I'm just hoping this is a really early version of the UI, and not what we all should expect.

Same issue on my P85D since taking the latest update.

And as long as you have cell coverage in the car. ;) I have to park underground at work and the car has no coverage there. :(

My top requests at the moment are a Waze app and support for Spotify (Slacker still stinks in comparison).

Here is my promised follow-up after picking up my car after having the rear drive unit replaced. As I mentioned, they put in a new drive unit and the issue is gone (for now) and the car drives nicely. I appreciate my service center agreeing to put in a new (versus remanufactured) drive unit...

I had my car in for other service and I mentioned this issue. It turns out that the issue was caused by one of the mics in the car being misaligned. They re-aligned the mic and the issue is now gone.

I spoke with the service manager and they have ordered a new rear drive unit, and the car will likely be returned to me on Monday. This unit is supposedly what's being put into cars currently on the assembly line, and some form of update was done to those since my car was assembled. My concern...

I'm the OP on this thread, and I just got an update from Tesla service. It turns out that the failure was in the rear drive unit's sensor, and that the car reacted by shutting down the front drive unit. Tesla said they are replacing the rear drive unit with a used, remanufactured unit as...

Over Bluetooth, during "hands-free" phone calls over the car's mic / speakers, on my iPhone 6 / P85D, the other person can always hear themselves. This is 100% of the time. Does anyone know what's going on here? Phone and car are on the latest updates, and I've tried forgetting the BT...

I felt some stuttering yesterday as the car regen braked. Then another stutter and red lights flashed with service warnings about the front motor. I had no power and drifted to the side of the road. I had to get out of the car for it to shut off and then restart, but the front engine came...

I just got a notice from the IRS that they denied my $7,500 tax credit from form 8936 for my Tesla purchased in 2014. I had an accountant review it before submitting and everything looks fine. Any idea what's up or what I should do? I tried calling the IRS but they're closed on the weekend...

Is this the right form? http://www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/f8936.pdf

I don't have a non-Pano Tesla to compare it against, but I don't notice any noise from the Panoramic roof while closed. I do have a question about it though, if someone could enlighten me... I just opened mine for the first time this weekend and this was the first time I saw the bar /...

Unfortunately due to the compression from my phone when I emailed the video to myself, and from the compression on the YouTube upload, the crackling is far less obvious than the original, and of course the experience in the car itself. Please turn the volume up or listen with headphones and let...

Totally non-scientific, and certainly not enough data to make any real judgment, but here are my last two drives to work in the morning. The red line is yesterday's commute into work (which I accidentally drew too far, in that it includes some of my drive home yesterday as well), and the green...

Nice! Thanks for the update!

I had mine go off tonight in heavy rain and wind with the closest car at least 40 meters away and traveling at the same speed, in the same direction, as me. Not sure what to make of that.

I've used nav twice since I took delivery 10 days ago and both times it wanted to take me (according to its own prediction once I manually drove the optimal route, ignoring its recommendation) 14 minutes longer on a 38 minute trip from Woodinville to downtown Seattle. It wanted me to go on side...
