    Single wipe switches on the headlights

    I got 17.24.28 a few days ago and it looks like they fixed it.

    Single wipe switches on the headlights

    Exactly, they said it was an intentional change so in their point of view there's nothing to be fixed unless enough people complain. So please everyone, send a complain.

    Single wipe switches on the headlights

    Since the latest software (17.11.10), whenever I press the button for a single wipe of the windshield wiper, the headlights go on, even in bright daylight. I e-mailed to [email protected] and they say it's a wanted feature, but for me this is a bug. Why would I want to switch on the...

    Does autopark really need a car on both sides of the parking spot?

    You must be easily embarrassed then. :rolleyes: Everyone I showed it too so far found it cool. Oh. And when you dont? :p:D

    Does autopark really need a car on both sides of the parking spot?

    :eek:o_O:confused: Fortunately I did NOT need an autopsy! ROFL Auto park certainly wasn't necessary to get into a big spot like this, but as I wrote I was surprised the "P" showed up and curious what would happen, so I tried. I often use auto park, actually whenever I can, if needed or not. I...

    Does autopark really need a car on both sides of the parking spot?

    I always thought auto park needs another car on both ends of the parking spot to recognize the spot, so I was surprised when "P" showed up recently at a parking spot in which you could easily fit two cars. I expected this to be too big to be recognized as a parking spot. But the "P" was there so...

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    You can now get this printed directly from thingiverse. Just go to Tesla UMC wall mount by znib and click the "Order This Printed" button on the right: You probably only want either the version with two mounting holes or the one with only one, so don't forget to unselect the version you don't...

    Enter GPS coordinates into the navi

    Yes, that's what I did at the end. Entered the coordinates in google maps on my phone, tried to find the same place on google maps in the Tesla, and placed a pin there. I find it cumbersome to use my phone, and a bit weird that it doesn't work by entering the coordinates directly if it works on...

    Enter GPS coordinates into the navi

    Hi, Is it possible to navigate to a place of which I only know the latitude / longitude but no name or address? I tried to enter the coordinates into the search bar of the navi in many different formats, but either it didn't find anything or it found a completely wrong location. I thought the...

    Firmware 7.1

    Welcome, but your part, extracting the .json file, was much bigger than writing my little script and uploading the .kml to google maps. :-D Of course the map will outdate quickly if they open new service centers, so if you happen to see that this .json file gets updated, feel free to send it to...

    Firmware 7.1

    Ingineer postet a .json file with all the information here: Firmware 7.1 I don't know how exactly he got it, but he also often posts which parts of the car are affected by a certain update, so I guess he rooted his car or something. All I did was writing a quick and dirty bash script which...

    Firmware 8.0

    Just found this screen shot of the 8.0 center screen in a German forum: In the post it says "the upper menu disappears when not in use". I'm not sure if he really means the icons for the different apps, or just the buttons on the map. Personally I think it's a bad idea to make GUI elements...

    For how much charge left does the trip planer aim?

    Ok, and how will I see when I have charged enough? Will it tell me to which percentage I have to charge while connected to the super charger?

    For how much charge left does the trip planer aim?

    If I use the navi to go on a long trip, it will route me from super charger to super charger an tell me how long I will have to charge at each super charger to reach the next super charger. But what does "reach" mean? If I charge for as long as the navi tells me, will I (theoretically) reach the...

    How fast is CHAdeMO charging?

    When I'm charging on a CHAdeMO charging station using the Tesla CHAdeMO adapter, will the charging speed be limited by my car's single charger (11kW) or does it bypass the car's charger, like a super charger does, and I can use the full let's say 50kW of the charging station?

    Firmware 7.1

    I think that's how perpendicular parking works. It first drives backwards until it ALMOST hits the other car. Then it drives forward again with the steering wheel turning in the other direction. Then backwards again and done. In the video below it even does needs to go forward twice, mine...

    Should the door handles present when pressed on the back doors?

    I thought about that too, but the lift gate works without unlocking. I also tried to put the fob on the roof and pressed the back door handle, nothing happened. Then without moving the fob I pressed the front door handle and the handles presented. I have it set to unlock all doors. But I've...

    Should the door handles present when pressed on the back doors?

    There was an old thread about that topic, but I can't find it anymore, so forgive me for opening a new one.... When I press on a door handle on one of the front doors, the door handles (all 4) present. When I do it on the back doors they don't present. I find that strange and inconvenient, e.g...

    Media App Changes

    I also miss the input selector button. Currently, I use the right scroll wheel to change the audio source, but in spring / summer I'd like to set it back to control the pano roof.

    Feature request: Location based trunk opening height

    I had to program a lower trunk opening height to prevent the trunk lid from hitting my garage door at home. But every where else I'd like the trunk to fully open. I think they should make the trunk opening height location based, just like the height of the suspension or the time when it starts...

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    Or google if there's a fab lab in your city. They are probably a lot cheaper than shapeways, etc. Btw, I'd love to see your prints, so post pics if you can! I still find it fascinating that I design something on my PC and then it materializes on different places all over the world. Crazy world. :D

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    I have an Ultimaker Original (yeap, it's made of ply wood :biggrin:). It comes as a kit with all the parts and you have to build it yourself. Today I would probably buy an Ultimaker 2. It's newer, comes pre-built and is made of aluminum and acrylic glass. A good thing about Ultimaker is that...

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    It's at the same place as the one with one hole. Under "Thing Files" you see UMC_holder.stl (the original one with one hole) and UMC_holder_2-holes.stl (the new one with two holes).

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    I made only one hole because I didn't want to drill two holes into my concrete wall. :redface: But you're right, if I apply enough force I can rotate it. Because of this and "due to popular demand" :-D, I just added a two-hole version. There's this on thingiverse, but I never tried it. I...

    3D printed UMC wall mount

    Autopilot - some suggestions

    I totally agree with that, this has to be addressed quickly! When I'm driving in the right lane of a two lane highway, it drives perfectly in the center of the lane. But on the left lane, where I usually am (in Europe the slow traffic like trucks is usually on the right lane), it drives way to...

    [Europe] DAB+ reception and reliability

    It used to be part of the premium sound package here, but when I ordered in May 2015 it was already standard. I don't know when and why they changed it, maybe because they are planning to shut down analog radio in Switzerland in a few years.

    [Europe] DAB+ reception and reliability

    [Europe] DAB+ reception and reliability

    That's strange. It was standard in my P85D in Switzerland. I ordered in May 19 2015 and took delivery on September 1st. I don't have the premium sound package, but I do have DAB. But the implementation is strange. Not the audio, but the "meta information": With the music app on the dash, I...

    " Europe and Asia are pending regulatory approval "

    Not sure if it was already mentioned somewhere, but the 7.0 we got in Europe (2.7.77) is slightly newer than the one in the US (2.7.56). One difference is the temperature and time on the dash are back! You can see what it looks like here: Model S | Tesla Motors Schweiz Another difference seems...

    Battery discharging even when plugged in?

    This morning, the battery was at 275km again, so it does indeed re-charge once it drops below a certain level. And now it's about time to drive it again. :-D

    P85D Max Power Mode??

    Its the same for most if not all batteries, and especially for LiPo batteries, the internal resistance is lower when the battery is warm. The original poster even gave the reason for this, the "speedier chemical reaction".

    P85D Max Power Mode??

    Current is only one part of the equation. What you actually want is not current, it's power. Power is current multiplied by voltage. Under load, the voltage drops because of the internal resistance of the battery. A warm battery has less resistance, hence the voltage drops less, hence more...

    Battery discharging even when plugged in?

    Good to hear it's normal, but I didn't expect vampire drain while the car is plugged in, since it could simply draw current from the outlet. Wouldn't this make more sense, also in terms of battery life?

    Battery discharging even when plugged in?

    I have my P85D set to charge to 70% at 01:00am. Usually this gives me about 275 km (171 miles) in the morning. After not using the car for a day it was at only 270 km (167 miles). The next day at only 266 km (164 miles). The car was plugged in all the time. Why does the battery go down if the...

    Autopilot and v7 coming this Thursday! (15-10-15)

    Where have you read that? That would be pretty useless, it would mean that you have to stop after every parking spot, and switch to R just to see if the spot is suitable for auto parallel parking. I don't think so. And the guy here who could already try it out clearly says the P appears on the...

    Autopilot and v7 coming this Thursday! (15-10-15)

    Also from Elon on Twitter: "Lots of upgrades and a new look, although main UI upgrade coming with 7.1". What do you guys think that means? I assume they are aware about the complains about the new UI, but they will release it anyway, with missing time, date, etc. to finally get the auto pilot...
