    I have obtained a service manual

    I'm not sure what kind of viewer software it is. Pure .PDF? download. Or go to each page and hold down Windows Key + Prt Scr. I totally wouldn't be opposed if somehow I got a copy of the maximal current draw/wattage for the power buses and details on how to get at the USB ports + 12V...

    "Hold Steering Wheel" - What's the purpose?

    It certainly pops up when the car under autopilot enters into a challenging condition. Until we get confirmation from Tesla, the following is speculation. I suspect it will also pop up when it nears into an area where people have disengaged autopilot manually. I'm basing this off of driving...

    Auto Parallel Parking feature working for anyone?

    I spent a while trying to autopark working in East Portland without luck. The curbs are kind of crappy, often with leaves/grass/etc obscuring them. No luck on a number of spots which should have worked in various neighborhoods. But when I took my car into the suburbs with square curbs...

    Firmware 6.1

    As a data point, I just picked up a new 85d in the US yesterday, and it has the 2.2.167 firmware.

    Tracking Model S 85D Delivery Thread

    I just took delivery of my car this afternoon. First 85D from the Portland service center. I'm super impressed at the acceleration of the thing. It fees like it just wants to go fast.

    Tracking Model S 85D Delivery Thread

    Working in the tech sector, my guess is there is some concern which popped up in testing where the 85Ds don't meet some minimum criteria. There is probably a bunch of engineers and testers looking at a batch of vehicles, and daily syncs and go/no-go meetings with management. Worst case...
